Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo quickly walked to the scholar's side and helped him up.
"You..." The scholar was still so angry that he was about to curse.
Fortunately, Song Wuya had already taken precautions, quickly covered his mouth, and dragged him into the city.
"Who are you?" Song Wuya let go after entering the city gate.The scholar looked at the two young men beside him, who were clearly strangers he didn't know, and immediately became vigilant.
Chapter 572 Invitation to Be Together
?Chapter 572 invites to accompany
"We are just passers-by. We don't like these people bullying you, so we help you." Song Wuya didn't want the scholar to misunderstand their intentions, so he immediately explained.
The scholar looked them up and down suspiciously, still full of vigilance towards the two of them.
"Hmph! You don't look like bad guys, but you are some spineless cowards!"
I don't know if the scholar appreciates it, but his words make people feel uncomfortable.
Bai Zhuo, who was already full of anger, had nowhere to say it when he was angered by the officers and soldiers just now. Now they kindly saved someone, and they still want to be angry.
"Hey! Let me tell you, do you have a conscience? We kindly rescued you and brought you into the city, but you are lucky. You are grateful, but you even swear at each other!"
Even if Bai Zhuo said so, the scholar still didn't change at all.
"Hmph! You really are a coward. You dare not speak out to those lackeys of corrupt officials. Instead, you reprimand them here. It's really powerful. It's so embarrassing!"
Seeing Bai Zhuo and the scholar getting angry, Song Wuya and the others laughed instead.
It's been a long time since they saw Bai Zhuo's distraught appearance, but when they saw him today, they felt that it was a bit of fun.
"Brother Wu Ya, can you still laugh? Don't you feel angry? Look at the way this kid is beating you up." Bai Zhuo saw that Song Wuya and the others laughed at him, and immediately couldn't help complaining.
Song Wuya shook his head and said: "Brother Bai, in vain you are also a scholar who studied hard for ten years. Can't you tell him what is backbone and integrity?"
After saying this, Song Wuya didn't bother to pay attention to the two of them anymore, he strode forward and looked around at the location of the inn.
It's going to be dark soon, and he doesn't want to sleep on the street without a place to go.Even if he could make do with it, there was no way for Situ Wen and Xiaohuan to make do with it.
"Brother Wuya, you're right, I'll tell this kid what is backbone and what is a coward!" Bai Zhuo was awakened by Song Wuya's joke, and made a gesture towards the scholar , as if there is going to be a long story.
"There is a way..."
He just said three words, not even half a sentence, when the scholar interrupted him.
"You don't need to tell me the reason. I also studied hard for ten years. There is no reason in this world that I don't understand. I don't bother to argue with you. Anyway, you paid for me, so I naturally won't let you It’s a disadvantage, but right now I’m penniless, so I can’t give it to you. Just don’t live here, and I’ll pay you back double when I meet you in the future.” The scholar didn’t want to listen to what Bai Zhuo was going to say, so he left it behind. If so, turn around and leave.
Seeing that the scholar was about to leave, Song Wuya glanced back at him, and smiled slightly: "There is nothing in the world that you don't understand, so tell me what is called the kindness of a drop of water, and you should repay it with a spring!"
With just such a sentence, the scholar who was about to leave was stunned.
He looked at Song Wuya solemnly, but couldn't say anything.
"Hehe! There are too many inexplicable truths in this world. Don't look down on others, and don't look up on yourself. You think you don't give money to the officers and soldiers because you are noble, aren't you a coward? That's because You have no money, if you are rich, will you be humiliated by him for a mere tael of silver?"
Song Wuya's words can be said to be heart-wrenching every word, and all of them touched the scholar's heart.
The expression on the scholar's face at this moment became even more angry.
Before he could open his mouth to refute, Song Wuya said again: "The word anger from embarrassment is used to describe your current appearance!"
"You..." At this moment, the scholar felt in his heart that he had been humiliated like never before. If it was the same as what happened at the gate of the city just now, then the humiliation just now was nothing at all.
Seeing that he was out of breath but unable to speak a word, Song Wuya sneered: "What is the purpose of reading? Isn't the purpose of reading to be knowledgeable? Don't you read to be able to retort better?"
Song Wuya's expression was always calm, but the scholar made waves.
"Young master, you are right. I was unreasonable just now." After hearing Song Wuya's words, the scholar calmed down after a long time. He finally recognized what he had just done, and immediately He admitted his mistake and apologized to Bai Zhuo. "Young master, I was offended just now, please forgive me."
Although what Song Wuya said just now was about the scholar in front of him, Bai Zhuo also heard it in his heart, he nodded and said: "It's okay, it's okay, I lost my composure just now."
"Uncle! There is an inn there!" Xiaohuan suddenly exclaimed, pointing to a signboard in front of him and shouting.
Song Wuya nodded, then looked at the scholar and asked, "I wonder if this young master has a place to stay today?"
This question can be said to be a bit knowing, this scholar can't even afford a tael of silver to enter the city gate, so how can he have any money to stay in the hotel.
When asked by Song Wuya, the scholar immediately blushed.
"If you haven't found the source yet, you might as well come with us. We are new here, and we want to make some friends. Besides, our team knows nothing about this imperial examination, so we want to find someone to talk to us about. If you appreciate me , to clear up our confusion, I am willing to give up a room to you, my lord." Song Wuya knew that the scholar really had nowhere to go, but he had seen the situation just now, and he was afraid that if he understood it, the scholar would feel Ashamed, or thought that Song Wuya was deliberately humiliating him, so he could only explain this in such a tactful way.
The scholar hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.
"Okay, since you are kind enough to invite me, my lord, then I'd rather be respectful than obedient!"
Song Wuya nodded and introduced to the scholar: "This is Song Wuya, this is my friend Bai Zhuo. This is my wife, Situ Wen, and Xiaohuan."
Since the scholar was invited to accompany him, Song Wuya first introduced everyone to him.
The scholar immediately saluted one by one, and then introduced himself: "My name is Gao Jin, and I was born in a poor family. My parents hoped that I would achieve something, so they gave me this name. It is a pity that I have failed my parents' high expectations."
"Brother Gao's words are wrong. You are in your prime and there are many opportunities. Why rush at this moment?" Song Wuya could see that Gao Jin was very lonely when he talked about this matter, so he immediately comforted him.
Gao Jin nodded: "With Brother Song's auspicious words, I hope Gao will be able to go to high school this time."
"Okay, let's find a place to settle down first, have a jug of good wine, and chat while drinking." Song Wuya pointed to the inn ahead, and said with a smile.
The inn still has guest rooms, Song Wuya asked for three rooms, and gave Gao Jin, whom he just met, to live alone.
"Brother Song is really polite, it really cost you money. If the two of you don't dislike it, Gao is willing to squeeze in with the two of you." Gao Jin couldn't bear it when he saw that the rooms in this inn were expensive, and felt embarrassed. talking.
Song Wuya waved his hand and said, "Brother Gao, you don't have to worry about this. It just so happens that the two of us are not short of these taels of silver, so you can go to sleep. After all, you are different from us. After a while, you We are different for those who are going to take scientific examinations.”
Song Wuya didn't want to make Gao Jin look bad, so he explained.
They sat down in the lobby, ordered some food and drink, and started chatting.
"Brother Gao, how many students are there in Enke this time?" Song Wuya was regarded as a student when he first came here, and he was charged a few taels of silver for the entrance fee, how could he not care about the imperial examination.
"Well, there must be two to three hundred people." Gao Jin is not sure how many people there are, and he said so, probably based on past experience.
Song Wuya nodded, and then said: "I don't know who is hosting the Enke test this time."
"I've heard about this one, and it's said that he is a cabinet bachelor of the second rank in the court." Gao Jin said this, with an extremely exaggerated expression on his face.
Hearing his words, Bai Zhuo said indifferently: "Cabinet bachelor, he is a second-rank official!"
"From the second rank!" Gao Jin was stunned for a moment, and looked at Bai Zhuo in surprise: "From the second rank is also the second rank, don't talk nonsense, these officials are most taboo about this."
