Chapter 265: Scholar
readx;?“ Smack!" A silver ingot slapped on the table, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, his eyeballs almost didn't fall out, and his tone changed, "A few or a few guest officers, the shop has just opened, and there is no scattered silver to find you." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Then we'll talk about it next time!" one of them picked up the silver, turned and left.
"Hey, guest officer, you, you-" Xiao Er was anxious and blocked sideways.
"It's you who don't accept it, no wonder we!"
"I didn't say no, but, just-"
"Long-winded, get out of the way, just a few pennies, can we still owe you?"
Xiao Er'er refused to let go, seeing that the other party was overwhelmed, he instinctively copied the burning stick, "If you don't give money, you can't leave!"
The two groups of people confronted each other, and the scholar spoke again, "This is your fault-" This time he looked at the four men, "When you go out, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, the sage said, it is convenient to be convenient with others, and it is difficult for others to fall into disasters, and everything must be planned to avoid falling into sin...... Then, he said to Xiao Er'er, "The little brother has also done some mistakes, there is a way that a gentleman does not move his mouth, how can he disagree with each other, and use force in vain......?"
The two groups of people listened to the second monk, and were about to speak, when the scholar said: "Well, what they eat and drink is counted on me, and they will end up together later, so it's all done." ”
The four men were grateful again, thanked the scholar, and hurried away, Zaocha and a few disciples just wanted to catch up and interrogate, but they heard the scholar suddenly shout-
"Wow, why am I, my purse gone......"
The shopkeeper raised the burning stick again, stared at him and sneered, "Hmph, buy it for others, don't come with me for this, I see that you are a group, let one batch go first, and then run away, want to drink Lao Tzu's 'Overlord Tea'?
The scholar blushed and waved his hand in a panic, "Shopkeeper, you are really wrong Xiaosheng, I am a scholar, and this trip is also to Beijing to take the exam, how can I coax you into those few dollars of silver, the sage said......"
"Shut up! Don't talk to me full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and I can't take out any more money-" Xiao Er'er glanced at his waist, "Hmph, otherwise, bring that broken jade over as a countervail!"
The scholar's face changed, he covered the jade pendant, and stepped back in panic, "This, this can't be helped, this is an heirloom jade, can't it be ......"
"Then follow me to the yamen to evaluate the theory-" Xiao Er'er also seemed to feel that the scholar was easy to bully, so he came to grab the scholar's collar.
"Hey, isn't it just a few big bucks-" Without waiting for his companion to speak, he stood up first, dusted off his clothes in a pretentious manner, and pretended to be gentle, all for someone to see, "Little second brother, do business, make money with kindness, come and come, what they owe, all keep my account-" He took out two silver ingots and slapped them on the table, "There is still some hot food, come up quickly!"
The shopkeeper got a big bargain, of course, he didn't entangle anymore, turned around and went down to work, the scholar was very grateful, came over and made a gesture, thanked him for a while, and was invited to the table by Li Xiaomu.
Luo Shuer was very curious about Li Xiaomu's previous guesses, and the questions that were not asked were confirmed one by one, which made everyone secretly surprised-
The scholar's name is Shu Xuanhuan, who was originally from Luoyin Mansion, and his ancestors were once big officials in the capital, but later because of his crime in the party struggle between the DPRK and China, he was demoted to the local government and demoted to three levels. However, his ancestors were honest officials and had a very strict family education, and they were deeply loved by the local people, until his father's generation, and many years of high-ranking officials also made their family wealthy, and they can be regarded as a large local family.
But just ten years ago, his father died suddenly, several parents also inexplicably sued, the elders were imprisoned and sentenced to death, the house property was confiscated, and the relatives were scattered, leaving only their orphans and widows to depend on each other.
The family road has fallen, but Shu Huanhuan has not forgotten his father's words before his death: "Study hard, get ahead, re-enter the court, and benefit the people......" He chiseled the wall to steal the light, hung the beam and pierced the strands, learned bitterly, bitterly and happy, ten years like a day, and finally felt that he had achieved something, said goodbye to his mother, and came to the capital to catch the exam with a full stomach.
As he spoke, the shopkeeper had already brought a few bowls of chaos and noodle soup, and Li Xiaomu saw that the scholar was looking at the hot bowl with blank eyes, but he didn't eat it, and couldn't help but understand: "Brother Shu, don't you look down on this coarse food and soup? Or, don't you want to make me a friend?"
Shu Xuan shook his head hurriedly, "How dare you dare, Brother Li has harmed Xiaosheng, there is not much in the next plate, he has not eaten a full meal for several days, and now this food and water is abundant, in Xiaosheng's opinion, it is tantamount to a fairy meal saint, eager but dare not get, I am afraid that after this meal, it will be difficult to bear the desire of the tongue, yes, it will not be able to stand in the capital...... Besides, I am poor and poor, and I don't dare to climb up to such a noble ...... as Brother Li."
"Hehe, Brother Shu is really good at laughing, people don't judge the rich and the poor, this is what you just said, you understand that others understand, as soon as you are confused with yourself-" Li Xiaomu pushed a bowl of chaos in front of him, "Desire, not necessarily a bad thing, just look at whether it is good desire or evil desire." ”
Shu Xiaohuan was slightly stunned, then smiled dumbly, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate, although he looked hungry, he still ate very gently.
Yan Shirong was very careful, and found that it was a little embarrassing for the scholar to eat alone, so he immediately picked up the chopsticks and said to everyone: "Eat them all, eat them all, use them up early, and you have to hurry!"
During this period, Li Xiaomu gave Shu Xihuan ten taels of silver, saying that it was for him to use on the way to Beijing, and the scholar repeatedly pushed it back at first, but then everyone persuaded him, he knew that he was penniless, so he accepted it, and at the same time said that the money would definitely be repaid in the future, including this morning's fare, and then, he ate with his head bored, but Li Xiaomu found that his eyes were red and seemed to be about to fall into tears.
Li Xiaomu couldn't bear it, and wanted to persuade again, but he heard Shu Xiaohuan sigh faintly-
"Alas, Brother Li, in fact, although it is difficult to go down, it is not so down, it's just-just ......" The tears finally flowed down and fell into the bowl, but he didn't care, mixed with the soup and drank it, and then took off the jade pendant from his waist and gently stroked it in his hand.
Li Xiaomu's face changed, "This can't be helped! Brother Shu, you gave me this heirloom jade, who do you think of your little brother?"
Shu Xiaohuan was stunned, and then turned red, "Brother Li and Li misunderstood, Xiaosheng regards him as more important than his life, and he must not ...... Alas!" He let out a long sigh, endless sorrow, and his eyes turned red again, "Brother Li, just now I only said that this thing is ancestral, but I didn't say that there is another reason for its preciousness......"
