Chapter 45 The young scholar was teased
Xie Shuangbai first secretly hid the salt and sauce he brought out from the space yesterday in a large wooden box.
He is rich now. He has paid back the money he owed to the village chief by selling tofu in the past few days, and has also bought a lot of furniture.
The wardrobe, the bedside table, the big wooden box and the desk now make the room look much better and at least it is not empty anymore.
He opened the wardrobe, looked at his clothes and hairstyle, and closed the door again when he found nothing wrong.
He secretly hid a mirror inside to save himself the trouble of going to the space to look in the mirror.
After I packed up, I went out and saw Daya and her sisters busy growing bean sprouts.
Xie Shuangbai took out the pickled vegetable jars he had bought earlier and washed them. He then instructed:
"I'm going to Wang's house. Please put the dry jars in the main hall for me. I'll use them when I come back."
"I understand, bro."
Xie Shuangbai went to Wang's house, and everyone greeted him with a smile along the way.
He walked to a corner and caught a glimpse of Xiaodouzi, who looked dirty and not in good condition.
"Little Bean!"
When Xiaodouzi saw him trying to hide, he quickly stepped forward to stop him: "Why haven't I seen you these days? I was busy the past two days and forgot about it. Did someone bully you again?"
He said timidly: "No, I wasn't bullied."
"Then what happened to your injuries? Are they still from Zhu Fu and Gou Dan?"
"It's not them, really!" Xiaodouzi explained anxiously.
Xie Shuangbai became even more angry. There are not many good children in the village, right?
"Who is that?"
"It's not really bullying, you just hit me with a thorn egg. It's okay, I'm not hurt!"
Xie Shuangbai was puzzled: "What are thorn eggs?"
Xiaodouzi explained, "It's a fruit with thorns on the mountain."
Xie Shuangbai asked: "What's it like?"
Xiaodouzi thought for a moment and said, "That's it..."
After Xiaodouzi finished speaking, Xie Shuangbai thought, isn’t this just a chestnut?
"Do you know where it is?"
"They're all over the back mountain. No one wants them, so they picked them up..."
"Pick it up and beat you?"
Xiaodouzi didn't dare to speak anymore.
"Look at me, little bean! You have to remember that you are not someone who can be bullied by everyone. You have to fight back. Even if you can't win at first, you have to let them know your attitude. You are not someone who can be bullied easily!"
"Think about your grandma. Wouldn't she be sad to see you being bullied?"
"I..." Xiaodouzi looked at Xie Shuangbai with tears in his eyes, not knowing what to say.
"Come on, I'll take you to find the person who bullied you. We can't let him bully others and live comfortably!"
Xiaodouzi looked at Xie Shuangbai's outstretched hand and gently pulled it up.
The morning light cast long shadows on them.
Xie Shuangbai looked at Xiaodouzi puzzledly and asked, "Is this it?"
It wasn't that Xie Shuangbai was suspicious. Xiao Douzi brought him to a thatched house that looked really ordinary.
Most of the houses in the village are made of mud, but this family lives in a thatched house.
Xie Shuangbai shouted a few times at the door but no one answered, so he pushed open the fence and entered the yard.
Just as he was about to speak, a drunk man walked out of the house.
He saw Xie Shuangbai was stunned at first, then amazed, staring at him blankly, drooling, and making Xie Shuangbai feel so disgusted that he wanted to vomit.
Xie Shuangbai asked Xiaodouzi: "Was it his son who beat you?"
Xiaodouzi looked at the drunk man, shrank his head, and nodded slightly.
Xie Shuangbai touched his little face and signaled him not to be afraid.
The aunt next door happened to pass by his house from the fields and saw Xie Shuangbai in the yard. She asked in confusion: "Little scholar, why did you enter the Wang family? Come out quickly!"
Just as Xie Shuangbai was wondering, the drunk man rushed over. Fortunately, Xie Shuangbai dodged quickly, otherwise he would have been covered in saliva.
"Are you the son of the Bai family? He is indeed handsome, as beautiful as your mother. No, even more beautiful than your mother!"
Seeing him burping and saying disgusting things, Xie Shuangbai wanted to kick him.
"Beauty, a beauty like you deserves to be loved by me! Come here and let me touch you!"
The aunt next door heard that what he said was getting more and more out of tune, so she started to scold him:
"Wang Laizi, you're blinded by lard, aren't you? You can't tell a man from a woman! This is Xie Xiaoxiucai, you better clean your mouth!"
"Little scholar, little scholar is good, Bai Shi just married a scholar and gave birth to a scholar son, scholars are powerful, I have never slept with a man, such a beautiful scholar, sleeping with him is powerful, come here, I will love you!"
As he said this, he showed his big yellow teeth and touched Xie Shuangbai.
The aunt couldn't stand it any longer and was afraid that Xie Shuangbai would suffer, so she ran home to call for help.
The family rushed out as soon as they heard it. As soon as they reached the door, they saw Xie Shuangbai kicking Wang Laizi to the ground.
Wang Laizi lay on the ground cursing like a dog that had eaten shit.
Xie Shuangbai felt that his shoes were dirty.
The aunt hurried over to see him: "Xie Xiaoxiucai, are you okay?"
"Auntie, you saw everything just now. I really can't help but hit you."
The auntie looked like she understood:
"Wang Laizi is a pervert. He has molested countless young wives in the village. He used to be more restrained when his wife was around, but now he starts to act like a pervert as soon as she's not around!"
When Xie Shuangbai heard this, he knew that this person was not a good person, no wonder his son was not a good student.
"Auntie, I came to his house today because his son bullied Xiaodouzi. I brought him to the house to argue, but who knew..."
"Damn this Wang Laizi and his son Wang Gouzi, they are both bad guys!"
A young woman finished cursing and said:
"Mom, I think we need to find the village chief about this. He's taken advantage of so many young wives in the village, and today he bullied the young scholar again, so this can't be counted!"
Xie Shuangbai wondered what was going on.
Wang Dadi was furious when he arrived. Seeing Xie Shuangbai, he asked awkwardly, "Are you okay?"
Xie Shuangbai was puzzled as to why he looked so strange.
"I'm fine, Wang Laizi is the one who's in trouble."
He asked puzzledly, "What's wrong? Are you looking at me like that?"
Wang Dadi told the story again.
Xie Shuangbai was speechless and deeply understood how rumors came about.
The truth of the matter was that he went to seek justice and beat up Wang Laizi who spoke rudely. Then it was spread that Wang Laizi coveted Xie Xiaoxiucai's beauty and when he couldn't tease her, he forced himself on her!
He exclaimed, "Wow! Those who spread the rumor are at a loss if they don't write a storybook! The key is that everyone believed it!"
This is outrageous!
Xie Shuangbai explained it several times in public.
Someone whispered, "I'm just kidding, how could Wang Laizi fall for a man?"
"You are blind, you can't see what the little scholar looks like, he is more beautiful than a woman!"
"Anyway, I believe he's a toad who wants to eat the young scholar!"
"I believe it too. This Wang Laizi would pounce on any ordinary person he sees. He's so greedy for this handsome little scholar!"
Wang Dadi felt a headache after hearing this. He really felt pain. There was never a single day of peace for him as the village chief.
Xie Shuangbai didn't say anything. Maybe the focus was wrong!
No one paid attention to the bullied Xiaodouzi and the bully Wang Gouzi.
Everyone should grab what they are interested in, even if it is fake.
Xie Shuangbai suddenly felt very powerless, and also understood those people in the news who had difficulty speaking out.
People never care whether it is true or false. They only care whether the news can make them happy and whether it can make them spread rumors more unscrupulously. As for the truth, it has long disappeared in the rumors.
Xie Shuangbai suddenly didn't want to talk anymore. He silently took Xiaodouzi's hand and quietly left the noisy crowd.
Rumors stop at the wise.
He didn't know why this sentence came to his mind.
