Chapter 27: Trouble Gets Around
When I got closer, I saw the scholar surrounded inside, the book grew quite white, his black hair was tied up, and he was wearing coarse cloth clothes, and he knew that there was no money in the family at a glance, but the clothes were quite neat.
"How about Song Xiucai, my son-in-law said that as long as you are willing to obediently go to his house to do things for him, you will definitely be paid a good salary every month. Think about it, my son-in-law won't treat you badly! ”
"That's right! It's like you come here every day in the wind and rain to set up a stall and sell a few pairs of calligraphy and paintings, I heard that your wife has been sick for a long time and doesn't even have the money to buy medicine? ”
"If you don't agree, then don't blame us for being rude!"
“……”
It seems that several big men were hired to intimidate the scholar, and they don't know why they worked so hard.
Could it be related to this rush to take the exam?
Meng Xuexuan's eyes fell on the scholar's calligraphy and painting, the calligraphy is powerful, and with a free and easy temperament, the painting is also more meaningful! Very good! Meng Xuexuan has also seen many famous works in the past, but this scholar's calligraphy and painting are extraordinary, it seems that he has worked hard to learn, and setting up a stall to make a living is indeed burying talents!
The scholar listened to these people with a dark face, with an obvious expression of disdain on his face, and of course he refused without hesitation.
"Thank you for your love, I received it with good intentions, and I forgive Song for not agreeing. I still have to do business in the future, so please come back! ”
Song Shusheng flicked his sleeves, snorted arrogantly and turned his head, as if it was a waste of his lips and tongue to say a word to those people!
Meng Xuexuan rolled her eyes, this scholar is really, can't you see that these people are relying on him today, what kind of score are they putting there! With his powerless body, where can he beat these strong men?
I didn't agree with the good words, and the servant who came over with the big man was annoyed, and said: "Song Hongxun, don't toast and don't eat and drink, my son-in-law takes a fancy to you, that's your blessing, don't pretend to be high in front of Lao Tzu!" If you don't come back with me today, don't blame us for being rude! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of men stepped forward with bad intentions, and without saying a word, they copied the pen, ink, calligraphy and paintings on his stall and fell to the ground.
The people around also saw that they were moving, and they were also in a commotion, but they all had an attitude of watching the excitement, or they were afraid of causing trouble, and no one came to help.
"You...... You guys! Song Hongxun looked at his beloved calligraphy and paintings being trampled on by these barbarians at will, and felt distressed, "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, do you still have a royal law?!" ”
"Wang Fa? Hahaha. To be honest with you, my son-in-law is the king! Keep smashing! If he refuses to agree, he will come and smash it for a day. Grab what he's got on me, too! ”
The stalls on the ground had been almost smashed, and the leader quickly targeted Song Hongxun who had been holding two of them from the beginning. It was Song Hongxun's most proud work that he had thought about for a long time before he planned to sell it, how could he trample on them again?
Seeing that the calligraphy and painting had been almost smashed, and the ones in his hands were also targeted, while the people around him were a little restless, Song Hongxun remembered to run away.
"Want to escape? Give me chase! ”
"Oh, who stumbled!" The person in front of him tripped over before he could get out of the wall, and the person behind him somehow fell on him while chasing the whole person.
Meng Xuexuan blinked, retreated from the crowd, and vaguely heard a mess inside.
"Did you do a good job?"
"It's not me, it's not me!"
"Big brother, it seems to be that kid."
"You? Call me! ”
“……”
After turning a street and walking for a while, Meng Xuexuan felt that it was time to go back, and looked at the fork in front of her, if she remembered correctly, she should have to take that road to go back, "Qiu Wan, are we going to take this road back?" ”
"Qiu Wan??"
After waiting for a long time to respond, Meng Xuexuan turned around and found that Qiu Wan had not followed at all. Worst! I only care about going first, and the girl probably doesn't know that she has left.
Shouldn't it still be in the downtown just now, Meng Xuexuan had no choice but to go back again. It's just that when she went back, there weren't many people left except for finding that the stall there had been smashed to pieces.
"Qiu Wan......" Meng Xuexuan looked around, but she didn't see the shadow of the girl, where did she go? The girl probably found that she was gone, and she should be looking for her anxiously, so Meng Xuexuan had to go to the neighborhood to look for her.
I don't know how many streets I found, but Meng Xuexuan still didn't find anyone in a small alley, and she was a little annoyed. I didn't know that I would have gone to see what was going on, and she walked back dejectedly.
"Borrowed, borrowed!" When she met her, she found that a person ran towards her in a panic, and directly bumped into her in embarrassment, followed by a few people catching up.
As soon as she saw that person, Meng Xuexuan had a headache, how could she write that the scholar had run away for so long and hadn't avoided those people, and she had just helped him in vain.
"I'm sorry, miss, are you alright?" Song Hongxun's head and face were already a little blue and swollen, and he didn't have to guess to know what was going on.
Meng Xuexuan wanted to say two words to him, but then swallowed back, "It's okay, you can run quickly, but don't go that way, it's a dead end." ”
She had just come out of there, and it was a dead end.
"Want to run? Poor scholar, unless you go back with us today, don't think about it. Song Hongxun didn't have to get up yet, the people behind him had already caught up, and looking at the delicate beauty beside him, his eyes suddenly released wolf light, "Yo, where did the chick come from, she looks really good!" ”
The people behind him had already discovered Meng Xuexuan beside Song Hongxun, and her emotions rose all of a sudden, her fiery eyes did not converge at all, and she completely fell on her naked.
"Good Peugeot's little beauty, come over to my brother's side, my brothers promise to take care of you later...... Hahaha! Those people didn't take Song Hongxun seriously at all, and began to use foul language in their mouths.
"What are you going to do? It's none of her business, don't involve the innocent! Song Hongxun knew that he had caused her to be involved, so he took two steps forward and blocked Meng Xuexuan behind him without a trace.
Meng Xuexuan only had a good impression of this scholar after listening to him, but it was uncomfortable to be stared at like this. These people dared to beat her idea, she held back her anger and wrinkled her eyebrows, "You'd better not beat this girl's idea, otherwise the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion won't let you go!" ”
Seeing them approaching step by step, she had to move out her father to scare them. It's just that she underestimated the lust of these people, and the person who walked in front laughed wickedly, and said, "Isn't it just a Xiangye, what is there to be afraid of, my son-in-law is a big backer." Brothers, go up together and catch this chick and Sour Xiucai together! ”
"Don't come here!" There were many people on the other side, and the two were forced to retreat step by step. Meng Xuexuan is a little woman, Song Hongxun is a useless scholar, and she is unreliable at all, there is not even a figure around, and it is useless to shout for help.
She didn't meddle in her business just now, but she still couldn't avoid getting into trouble!
What should I do? Meng Xuexuan was also a little uncertain in her heart.
"It's Xiaosheng who has affected Miss, I'm really sorry, Miss should take the opportunity to escape." Song Hongxun turned his head and looked at Meng Xuexuan with a vigilant face behind him with great apologies, then threw away the only two calligraphy and paintings left in his hand, and opened his arms to completely block her behind him, "If you want to arrest me, catch me back, Hugh has to move this young lady behind me!" ”
"Do you think you can stop us, joke! Don't listen to their ink, do it! The other party didn't want to waste time, so he rushed over with someone!
Seeing that they were about to come, in a hurry, Meng Xuexuan snatched the calligraphy and painting from the scholar's hand and threw it at the two people in front, and sprinkled the prepared white medicine powder on the eyes that came up in the back accurately.
"Ah......h
The powder flew defenselessly into their eyes, and the men had to stop screaming, all rubbing their aching eyes. These medicinal powders were just bought by Meng Xuexuan from the drugstore, and they had a certain irritation, and they were all scattered in two large bags.
"This ......" Song Hongxun looked at the people in front of him and screamed, and couldn't help but look down at the weak little woman beside him, obviously he didn't expect her to behave like this!
"What is this, what are you doing in a daze, don't you run?!"
Meng Xuexuan glared at him, and found that he was still at a loss for what to do, grabbed his hand and ran through them before the other party could react.
"Don't let them run, chase me! Rice buckets, you useless things, you can't even deal with a woman and a scholar! ”
Looking at their figures gradually running away, and their own group of little brothers rubbing their eyes and screaming in pain, the leader kicked and beat them angrily to make them catch up.
"Over there, over there." After coming out of the alley, seeing Meng Xuexuan hesitated for a moment, the people behind still chased after him, and Song Hongxun, who was more familiar with this area, took the road in turn.
After passing through another alley and entering a remote residential area, Song Hongxun took her into a simple courtyard without hesitation. Hurriedly closed the door, listening to the footsteps of the people chasing outside, the two dared to lean against the door panel and gasp for breath!
"Where is this?" Meng Xuexuan looked at the tattered little courtyard, and asked with her hand stroking her chest that fluctuated violently with her breathing.
Song Hongxun's gaze unconsciously stopped on her for a while, and he quickly opened his eyes and said unnaturally: "It's Song's humble house." ”
"It's your house." No wonder he had brought her in without thinking about it just now.
"Who's out there? Is it Honghoon? A frail, old voice came from inside the room, and it seemed that it had heard movement outside.
Meng Xuexuan looked at Song Hongxun questioningly, and he replied, "Mother below." ”
"Mother, it's the child who has returned." Song Hongxun was about to walk back to the house in response, the soft touch in his hand, and when he looked down, he realized that he had been holding someone's hand since just now, and his face was red and he hurriedly let go of his hand, "I'm sorry, I will undoubtedly offend Miss." ”
