Chapter 227: The Old Man Is Difficult
In the restaurant, several elderly people on crutches stopped step by step.
These people are old and frail, and it seems that a gust of wind can blow them down.
Others were afraid to come into contact with it, and one accidentally fell to the ground, and he didn't know how to explain it.
And these people came in, all with calm faces, and walked to the desk without saying a word.
Wang Xiaohua was talking about a book, and was suddenly interrupted, and it was such a group of old people, a little at a loss, she stepped forward and asked, "Old man...... You ......"
As soon as Wang Xiaohua spoke, the old man raised his crutches and smashed Wang Xiaohua's head without saying a word.
Wang Xiaohua was defenseless, was knocked with a crisp sound, covered her head and retreated several steps.
The old man didn't have much strength, but the crutches were solid, and he was beaten to the pain, and he couldn't breathe with his teeth bared.
Mr. Xiaohua was the idol of everyone present, and when he saw that the idol was beaten inexplicably, the atmosphere in the audience suddenly became tense.
The ladies watching at the door of the backyard were a little impatient to rush up.
But the other party is an old man, and so many people are watching, but no one dares to act rashly.
At this time, I don't know who yelled: "Who dares to make a mistake?!" This is Mr. Chen of Shangxian Publishing House! The rest of you are all old gentlemen from Shangxian Publishing House! ”
"Mr. Chen of Shangxian Publishing House?!"
Hearing the names of several people, everyone was shocked, and there was a lot of discussion in the crowd.
This Shangxian Book Society is a famous book club in Youzhou, and the textbooks of many students in Youzhou are printed by Shangxian Book Society.
In addition, Shangxian Book Society is a book trading institution recognized by the imperial court, not for the purpose of making money, but only for the purpose of spreading knowledge.
Therefore, Shangxian Books has a very high reputation in Youzhou, and the plaques at the door are all given by Emperor Gaozu himself.
Shangxian Book Society not only sells books, but also is a place for exchanges between respected old gentlemen from all over Youzhou.
The old gentleman who came out of the Shangxian Book Society, the private schools opened in various places occupy ninety percent of Youzhou, which can be counted as the General Administration of Education in Youzhou.
The old Mr. Chen in front of him is the founder of the Shangxian Book Society, and he is also the old lady of the Chen family of the scholar family, with a noble status, he can be called a local sage, even if he sees it today, he does not dare to be disrespectful.
Regardless of whether the people who listened to the book understood the article or not, they knew Mr. Chen's name to some extent, and no one dared to make a move.
The ladies in the backyard also lost their temper, knowing that it was Mr. Shangxian Publishing House, they thought they were hiding, because among those old gentlemen, there may be teachers who have taught poetry to the ladies.
After learning the identity of the old man, the people around him also vaguely guessed why the other party came here.
Sure enough, a few old people went up to the desk, and without saying a word, they overturned the desk, and the startling wood used for storytelling was also thrown out of the window.
Bai Song hurried over, but he didn't expect that it was a group of old people who made trouble, and he was stunned for a while.
Seeing a few old people messing around in the hall like old hooligans, Bai Song was also a little at a loss.
He had also heard of the Shangxian Book Society and knew that the identities of these old men were not ordinary.
Dealing with some ruffians and hooligans, Bai Song is fearless, these old men with half of their bodies in the coffin are really not easy to mess with.
These old people are stubborn in their thinking, and they will not change at all because of your words when they die.
You can't beat, you can't scold, you can't be reasonable, and you can't be rude.
Bai Song thought about it, quickly stopped, stood in the crowd, and stopped moving.
Below, Wang Xiaohua covered her head and cast a pleading gaze at Bai Song.
Bai Song shook his head gently, signaling that there was no need to say anything, let these old men smash it if they wanted to.
The old man smashed in the hall, some people outside were worried, and some people watched the excitement.
Boss Zhang took a guy with a cup of tea in his hand, and he watched it with relish.
"Tsk...... Or the third master has a way, and he is very good at killing people with a knife. ”
The guy next to him was also surprised: "I didn't expect that when the Chen family's grandfather beat people and smashed the store with a stick, it was really an eye-opener." ”
"Hmph, these days, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms has spread all over the world, who doesn't have one or two volumes in his hands as the son of a big family? The sons and daughters of each family either skipped class to listen to books, or secretly watched in class, which made the teachers in the county complain. Mrs. Chen hated these novels in her life, and when she learned about it, she came to the door. Even if someone comes to the Taishou Mansion, he can only stare dryly, who dares to touch the old lady, that is the enemy of the world. ”
A master and a servant talked happily.
The old gentleman inside was also tired, so he simply sat down and pointed to the people who had been listening to the book for a long time and scolded: "You don't want to make progress, such a clumsy and filthy work is aimed at confusing the world and moving my Tang foundation." If you have this free time, why don't you look at the historiography of your predecessors? There are thousands of wise articles in the Four Books and Five Classics, and our descendants should follow the example of our sages to seek learning and knowledge, how can we waste time on such rotten things? It's all scattered for the old man! Who dares to come here again to listen to books and see that the old man does not break his legs! ”
With that, Mr. Chen threw his cane towards the crowd.
The crowd dispersed, and quickly avoided it.
This Chen family prince is really a hot potato, not only did he drive away all the guests, but he also had a great tendency to not leave.
Pointing at Wang Xiaohua and asking, "Where is this shopkeeper?" ”
Wang Xiaohua was a little frightened and looked at Bai Song upstairs.
Bai Song knew that he couldn't avoid it, so he took a few steps forward and arched his hand to several old people: "In Xia Bai Song, it's the owner of this shop." ”
Old Man Chen's face sank when he heard Bai Song's answer, and he didn't seem to vent his anger when he smashed it, so he immediately picked up his crutches and walked towards Bai Song.
Seeing this, Bai Song was not stupid, so he turned his head and ran, and went directly to the second floor
This old man can't touch it, and he can't hide it?
Old man Chen hated this store to the core, and wanted to catch up with it step by step.
Looking at his staggering appearance, I am afraid that he has not slipped without standing firm in one step.
Bai Rou watched on the side for a long time, and went up to help.
The old man originally wanted to drive away, but seeing that Bai Rou was cute and harmless to humans and animals, he didn't refuse, and let her help her go up step by step.
Bai Song was a little panicked, thinking that it was just a small matter, but he didn't expect this old man to be so able to toss, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
At this moment, the inner bread compartment opened, and another old man walked out: "Old Chen, don't come to harm?" ”
As soon as the King of Shu came out, Old Man Chen was instantly stunned and rubbed his eyes in surprise.
Li Zhan smiled: "Old Chen, you are not mistaken, it is an old friend!" ”
"See the ...... of the Prince"
Old Man Chen was about to kneel, but Li Zhan hurriedly spoke to stop him: "Why bother, people of this age, what do you care about these false names?" ”
The two old men are of the same age, but their bodies and bones are very different.
Li Zhan, the king of Shu, was not in good shape and short in stature, but he walked like the wind and had smooth qi and blood.
Old Man Chen is different, he made a fuss just now, his breath was a little uncomfortable, and every step seemed very reluctant.
"Lord Wang, why are you here?"
Shu Wang pulled Chen Lao downstairs, found a table to sit down at random, and asked the other old gentlemen to sit down one after another.
Fang Cai said to Chen Lao: "I think I am the Three Kingdoms who came to listen to this family." ”
Chen Lao was extremely surprised when he heard this: "Even you, Lord Wang...... It seems that this kind of novel is indeed harmful! ”
"No, the old friends listen to the book for the great trust of the emperor, and they want to rebuild the history of the Tang Dynasty. This Romance of the Three Kingdoms has an extraordinary effect on the old friends to repair the history of the Tang Dynasty, and I have listened to and watched a lot, which can be said to be a great benefit. ”
Chen Lao frowned slightly, and he couldn't say anything, just nodded: "I see, the prince has his own hardships......"
"This shopkeeper is also a kind-hearted person, and he is also related to this king. A few days of intersection, although I don't know it deeply, but it can be regarded as a conscience. Why is Old Chen so angry? What about struggling with this store? ”
Chen looked at Bai Song on the side, and then looked at the prince, his brows furrowed, but his tone was a little softened: "This person compiled the Three Kingdoms, which made the young people of the county fascinated, and many students in the county did not study every day, and often skipped outside of class to listen to books, even if they didn't go out to skip class, they would peek in class." How can such a vulgar thing be allowed to spread to the world? Now that the war in the north has not stopped, it is the time for my Datang to employ people, and I can't let the children of Datang destroy such filthy reading materials. ”
"Old Chen, you are a university person, when it comes to Taoist teaching, this king cannot be compared with you, as for whether these three kingdoms are filthy things, this king is not easy to say. It's just that you came to this store today to make trouble, hit someone, lifted the table, and drove away other people's customers, not to mention, and now you have to chase the store. Even if Chen Lao is reasonable, hasn't he become rude now? Besides, this shop has not been angry at all when he sees Chen Lao so noisy, and the young man is so humble, which is also a respect for Chen Lao. If it continues like this, people of Chen Lao's status are afraid that they will be looked down upon. ”
After hearing this, Chen Lao's brows furrowed, he coughed lightly and roared, and said in a deep voice: "This person's book is infuriating, and he has to do it as a last resort. Now that the prince has spoken, as long as the kid doesn't talk about the Three Kingdoms anymore, the old man can not be held accountable. ”
In the hall, several old people were talking.
Outside the building, Bai Song stood at the door and wiped his sweat and breathed a long sigh of relief.
It's making a fuss today, but it makes it difficult for Bai Song for a while.
Sang Sang looked at his house in a mess, and walked up to Bai Song worriedly: "Brother Bai, what should I do now?" Can tomorrow's business be done? ”
"Who knows?" Bai Song shook his head, "Everything only depends on the prince......"
The incident happened suddenly, and Bai Song didn't think of a countermeasure for a while.
Ancient people valued seniority the most, and these old gentlemen were very famous, completely different from the opponents they had met in the past.
As he was talking, Boss Zhang walked over with a smile in his hand and looked into the building pretendedly: "Yo, why is business so deserted today?" ”
Bai Song ignored him and silently thought of countermeasures.
"Why was the desk demolished? Gee...... I didn't expect that there are people who can't even handle the prince. Tell you, Old Man Chen is amazing, the literati in Youzhou listen to him, he wants to say that he can't listen to books, and whoever dares to listen to books in the future will be against the sages, and he will be scolded by countless people. Not to mention the prince, even the emperor does not dare to provoke at will. ”
"Really?" Bai Song asked rhetorically, smiled at Boss Zhang, and turned around and asked Chen Lao, "This Jixian County is talking about the Three Kingdoms everywhere, why only care about our family?" Isn't there anyone on the other side talking about the Three Kingdoms? You can't choose one over the other. ”
