Rouge wrong

Chapter 14

Shen Cuo frowned, and when he glanced around, he saw a man dressed as a scholar standing by the cloth cabinet, his face was full of disdain.

Buyixuan is mainly a cloth shop for common people, the price is relatively reasonable, and it has a good reputation among scholars.

The scholar probably watched the whole process in the store. When he heard that Shen Cuo was just the shopkeeper of a grocery store in Maoshanqian Village, he finally couldn't hold back his anger and mocked Shen Cuo.

"Who are you? Why are you talking here?"

Shen Cuo felt that he was inexplicable.

No matter how downcast she was, she couldn't get this cat or dog who came out of nowhere to point fingers.

"Hmph, you don't have to worry about who I am, I'm just a poor scholar with a rough road."

Shen Cuo looked him up and down, and said affirmatively, "Poor is really poor."

Naturally, the scholar's plain white clothes couldn't compare with the young master's brocade clothes and jade belt, so he blushed with embarrassment.

"Hmph, there is a poetic spirit in his stomach, and only merchants with bad money look at people with dog eyes."

The scholar tried to hold his head up and his chest high, with an arrogant attitude, Shen Cuo sneered.

"You said you were poor, why did I say that you are a dog's eye? What about the shopkeeper of the commoner shop?

Why didn't you act sooner when you saw the injustice? When I heard I was talking about the grocery store, I was sneering and sarcastic. Is this what you said?I think you are the one who sees people with a dog's eyes, bullies the weak and fears the hard, and is humiliating. "

Shen Cuo consciously respects people with real talents and real learning. When he invited those poets and calligraphers, which one was not "invited" politely?

Just this guy who dared to call himself a scholar, really laughed at her big teeth.

"You, you—" Seeing Shen Cuo's messy look just now, the scholar thought it was a young lady from some family who had never seen the world.

Unexpectedly, he was so eloquent and clear-cut, he couldn't continue to speak immediately, and only held his breath, "I'm a scholar!"

It's no wonder that this scholar is so proud. There are not many scholars in Maoshan Township and the nearby Shili Township.

The shopkeeper of Buyixuan knew Xu Xiucai, and he felt bad when he heard his voice.

He has been the shopkeeper in the town for more than ten years, so he can't say that everyone understands him, but he knows the temperament of several scholars very clearly.

This Xu Xiucai has the character of a scholar at a good level, and pedantic at a bad level-and he is indeed a bit bullying.

There are not many scholars in the town, he has a reputation, and everyone dare not offend him on weekdays, and the shopkeeper also compliments him a lot.

It's just that, as the young lady said, isn't it a little late to fight the injustice?

He is in business, he makes money with kindness, and he has already got the deposit. No matter what the identity of this Miss Shen is, the previous things can be exposed, so what is he going to do here?

It's a pity that he can't afford to offend both parties, so he can only come out to smooth things over.

"Miss Shen, this Xu Xiucai is the pride of our Maoshan Town. He is full of poetry and books at a young age, and has been praised by the magistrate."

Shen Cuo smiled disdainfully: "The praise of a mere seventh-rank magistrate is worth mentioning? Hmph, think about it..."

"Miss, it's getting late, should we go back?"

Shen Ding originally wanted to stand by and watch, but at this point, he was afraid that if he didn't stop him, his young master would have a relapse and get carried away.

He never dared to touch this brow in the past, but now the young master has someone else by his side, and he cannot shirk his responsibility.

At most he would be scolded and tossed a few times if he offended the young master, if the young master caused trouble and then spread it to that ear, he might really be overwhelmed and walk around.

Shen Cuo was interrupted and glared at Shen Ding angrily.But at this time, she also realized that she had talked too much, so she stopped talking.

"Forget it, what's the use of talking to you ignorant frogs in the well? Shen Ding, Erya, let's go."

The death of a scholar is small, and the loss of morality is big. Xu Xiucai was so nakedly humiliated, he immediately took offense, and rushed to the door to block the way of the three of them.

"This lady said that I am a frog at the bottom of the well, so what about you? You are making a fuss in Buyixuan with a little money, and you are not well-bred. I see you..."

Shen Cuo looked at the chattering sour scholar in front of him, his brows twitched.Thinking that she accompanied at least a dozen people in the past, most of the people who dared to provoke her were people from some families, and it was enough to beat her up.

But in front of her is a talented scholar who has no power to restrain a chicken. If she makes a move, won't she lower her self-worth and make a fool of herself?

Shen Ding stopped in front of Shen Cuo, but he didn't dare to make a move.Talented scholars have fame and fame, and if they make trouble, they will have to go to the county government.

In the past, they were naturally not afraid, but that adult was most afraid of being banned by martial arts. The young master has only been out for less than two months. If he violates the taboo, the one who suffers will probably be the leader.

Shen Cuo seemed to have thought of this too, and asked unwillingly: "Do you know martial arts?"

Xu Xiucai was stunned, at this moment, he noticed the tall and burly man in black, he immediately backed up to protect his chest, and stammered: "I, I have a reputation, don't you dare to beat me? "

Shen Cuo wanted to beat him all over the place.

The few people were just talking in the commoner hall, but Xu Xiucai retreated outside the door, which immediately attracted a lot of people to watch.

The shopkeeper of Buyixuan was already in a state of desperation, wishing to close the door immediately and go back to the backyard to burn incense sticks and pay respects.

Seeing that there were more and more people around, Xu Xiucai immediately became more confident, and simply used his expertise as a scholar, standing at the door of Buyixuan and yelling at Shen Cuo.

I don't know whether Xiucai is knowledgeable or not, but this scolding of people by citing scriptures really makes people feel stuck in their throats.

"Young Master..." Shen Ding hesitated slightly, and asked Shen Cuo in a low voice, "Do you want me..."

If it can't be done explicitly, then it can be done secretly. As long as people can't find evidence, so what if they are killed?

Shen Cuo waved his hand unhappily: "I promised my mother, it will be done after all."

Besides, this sour scholar is not guilty of death, in the past at most he would be beaten.

Er Ya had been standing timidly beside Shen Cuo, but when she heard the conversation between the two and Xu Xiucai's more and more scolding words, she suddenly pursed her mouth and mustered up the courage to trot towards Xu Xiucai.

"Mr. Xiucai, please stop scolding shopkeeper Shen. She bought clothes for me. If you want to scold me, scold me."

Xu Xiucai was in the middle of scolding, and didn't notice the little girl at all. He saw a figure rushing towards him in a trance, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to push her away.

Er Ya suddenly staggered and fell to the ground, the surroundings became quiet.

Xu Xiucai also saw Er Ya's face clearly at this time, and snorted coldly: "You little bitch who is a minion for a tiger, is it worthy of me to scold you?"

Two lines of tears fell down Erya's face immediately, and she sobbed, "Mr. Xiucai, I don't understand what you are saying, but I know shopkeeper Shen is a good person. He feeds me, dresses me, and even makes me new clothes... I don't care." I know why you scolded her."

Xu Xiucai scolded Shen Cuodui just now, it was nothing more than saying that she bullied others and did evil.Shen Cuo seemed to be either rich or expensive, which naturally aroused the sympathy of the crowd.

However, at this moment Erya looked very pitiful, and kept saying that Shen Cuo helped her.

On the contrary, Xu Xiucai seemed to be bullying others, and some people couldn't help whispering.
