Chapter 1959 Misunderstanding
As the quarrel broke out, Sun Bai, who was with one of his subordinates, was unable to leave immediately. He could not help but frown and secretly cursed the woman for being nosy!
Isn't it just a glass lamp? It's not worth much. My master is not short of money. No matter how expensive it is, he can afford it. He will definitely not bargain or haggle. Why is this woman making a fuss?
Her two maids were arguing fiercely with someone, and Sun Bai felt annoyed just watching it.
But this had nothing to do with him, so he would not go to the trouble of mediating. Really, if he did mediate, who would he be on?
He simply watched the show from the sidelines and waited for them to come to an end.
Sun Bai was very angry, but he forgot where this place was, which led to the consequences that followed.
This is the Lantern Festival, a busy city with huge crowds of people.
No one dislikes watching excitement. Before Sun Bai realized that something was wrong, the crowd had gathered in three layers inside and outside, forming a huge crowd!
When there are more people, the probability of seeing acquaintances will be greater.
The probability of seeing someone you know is even greater!
As one of the chief constables of Anze Prefecture Yamen, Sun Bai was known to many people in the city.
Sure enough, someone soon recognized him with an "Eh!"
After a while, someone who was considered familiar came up to greet Sun Bai and asked him what happened and whether he needed help.
The maid named Xiaoyi was quick-witted and clever, and she started yelling immediately.
Everyone cheered in surprise, those at the back asked and those at the front spread the news, and soon everyone knew what was going on!
Moreover, the story became more and more outrageous, and it eventually became "Shao Lord saw injustice and drew his sword to save the innocent. He saw a young and beautiful woman being bullied by a few hooligans in the lantern market, and the glass lanterns were knocked over. He couldn't bear it, so he intervened for the woman..."
Romantic gossip between men and women has always been a topic of gossip that everyone loves to talk about. Whenever there is a slight hint of something fishy going on, everyone will have their own imagination, interpretation, and spread the news.
Especially, one is a beautiful young lady from an unknown family, and the other is a young and promising prefect. The gossip between the two has attracted countless people's curiosity and they are eager to analyze it into a flower...
That night, Sun Bai later saw more and more people coming and felt that something was wrong, so he scolded those hooligans and compensated the girl with some silver.
He also quickly explained the whole story. However, sometimes people are only willing to believe what they believe, only willing to let their imaginations fly wildly, weaving true and false stories to satisfy their idle gossip desires, and they simply cannot listen to the real truth.
There are even "smart people" who think that Captain Sun is trying to cover up his mistake and is deliberately explaining it this way.
As for why Captain Sun wanted to cover up the truth? Haha, it cannot be said, it cannot be said...
"Smart people" are not just making random guesses, they have a basis for their guesses. If Lord Shao and the girl really didn't have anything going on, then why did Captain Sun send the girl home that night?
It must be for Lord Shao!
This speculation couldn't be more reasonable!
When Sun Bai heard about this later, he was also very depressed. The girl pleaded with him to see her off, saying that she was afraid of being bullied by those hooligans. What could he do? It was late at night, and the girl, her master and her servant were all weak women. In that situation, Sun Bai had no way to refuse.
