Chapter 37 Master Shen 2

Just talking about this tea shop shows that Master Shen is definitely a person with good taste, a leisurely life and not pedantic.

Which person with a college education would sacrifice his dignity to open a tea shop?

Still in this world where class status is clearly defined.

Yu Wan ate, drank and listened, and heard a few useful things.

The magistrate of Daxing County, whose surname was Ma, was once a top-ranking scholar, and his knowledge in the Great Yan Empire was considered very impressive. His temperament is almost the same as Master Shen's, but he gets angry when he doesn't see anyone.

He is considered an old county magistrate here. He has never been promoted or demoted. He has been doing this for thirty years.

His political performance is mediocre, neither standing out nor lagging behind, just right.

Yu Wan smiled, this is really an interesting person. If you can be wise and keep yourself safe for thirty years in the officialdom, this person will live like a monkey and his ancestors.

After Yu Wan drank a pot of tea, the door of Master Shen's house finally opened, and several students, similar in age to Yu Haotian, came out and left carrying book boxes on their backs.

Yu Wan saw that the book box seemed to be made of bamboo, but fortunately it was not a wooden box.

Then there was a spirited old man in his fifties wearing a green gown and cloth shoes. His hair was tied into a bun with a wooden hairpin, and he had a gray beard. His slightly arrogant face was incompatible with his wise demeanor.

Yu Wan twitched her mouth, what kind of contradictory person was she.

As soon as he entered the tea shop and sat at the table next to Yu Wan, he even glanced at Yu Wan curiously.

The waiter stepped forward and said, "Master, here is your tea and book."

"Pfft", Yu Wan couldn't help but laugh. She was drinking tea and reading in the tea shop. Master Shen was so elegant.

Master Shen frowned and glanced at Yu Wan: "The little girl laughs at the old man?"

Yu Wan turned around, faced Master Shen and nodded, "Master Shen is so elegant."

The waiter then said to Master Shen: "Master, this young guest wants to buy some cakes. I don't know if I can sell them, so I'm waiting for you here."

Master Shen looked at Yu Wan.

Yu Wan nodded: "I happened to pass by today and ate this mung bean cake that was very delicious. I want to take some back to my family to eat. I wonder if Mr. Shen has any extra?"

Master Shen opened the book: "The little girl didn't tell the truth."

"Well, Master Shen should join the Criminal Department. The little girl is indeed waiting for Master Shen." Yu Wan felt ashamed. Master Shen was in the wrong profession. In criminal investigations, there should be very few unjust, false and wrong cases.

"You have children at home who want to study? Tell me why you came to see me? Why did you come to see me?"

Master Shen didn't even glance at Yu Wan, drinking tea and reading a book.

Yu Wan: Master Shen, are you okay with this?

Yu Wan: "There are four brothers in my family who want to study. They are not in the county. They have just learned how to read for a few days and want to come to Master Shen to study. The reason why they came to see Master Shen is to see what kind of person he is. I don't want to be a A master who misleads his disciples.”

"Oh?" Master Shen raised his head and looked at the little girl in front of him. This was a bit interesting coming from a little girl.

He narrowed his eyes and said, "Little girl, what you said is very sad. Since ancient times, masters have always chosen their students, and no students have chosen their masters."

Yu Wan shook her head: "Master is wrong. It has been since ancient times. Where children study, they are not reading. The things in books are dead, only the human brain is alive."

"Haha, how old are you little girl? You have a good brain. I guess your brothers are all the same girl, right?" Master Shen put down the book in his hand. He had never seen anyone in his life who was better than this little girl. There is a lot of rice, this little girl is not simple, which makes him interested.

Yu Wan...

"Of course I'm the daughter of a mother, so I shouldn't be annoying to my wife."

"Have you chosen my wife?"

Yu Wan nodded: "Yes, Master did not get angry or curse."

Yu Wan did admire Master Shen a little, his magnanimity alone made people feel inferior to him. The master's dignity cannot be challenged, and his knowledge cannot be questioned. Master Shen is still calm and composed, worthy of being a bachelor.

Another thing is that she didn't open her mouth to criticize her.

"Okay then, I'll just throw it at you. I'll take it from your brothers. You can come to me at any time. In addition, I can sell you today's cakes."

This girl was so interesting. It was the first time in decades of his life that he met such an insightful girl. It was a pity that she was just a girl. The imperial court looked down on women.

Hey, I don’t want that miserable court!

"Uh, so easy?" Yu Wan blinked.

She immediately stood up and bowed respectfully to Master Shen: "Thank you, Master!"

When the waiter brought the cakes, they were all stunned. Is Mr. Shen so good-tempered and talkative today?

The weather is so sunny today!

"Haha, don't thank me early, I hope you don't regret it."

After saying that, Master Shen left the tea shop and went back with the book in his arms.

Well, what Master Shen said is so temperamental.

Yu Wan took the cakes, paid the money and left the tea shop, took a look at Master Shen's house, and returned to Yu Mansion.

Yu Wan returned to the room and put the pastries into the space.

"Miss, are you going to bring dinner to us or go to the kitchen to eat it?" Aunt Qiu's voice sounded.

"No, I won't eat tonight." She ate at the tea shop all afternoon, and her stomach was swollen and round.

The next day, after Yu Wan finished running and practiced for an hour, she asked Bo Xiao to drive the carriage to Yaxing.

The carriage stopped at Fumanduo Yaxing, and Yu Wan got off the car and entered the Yaxian. When shopkeeper Wu saw her, he immediately greeted her with a smile: "Good morning, Miss Yu, we are ready."

Yu Wan nodded and followed Shopkeeper Wu into the backyard.

Many people were drying clothes in the backyard, some were embroidering cloth, some were walking around the yard, and there were children crying.

Seeing Shopkeeper Wu coming in, they lined up consciously.

Yu Wan couldn't help but sigh, this fucked up society, people are sold like animals, and there is no human rights to speak of. I guess they don't understand whether human rights are square or round.

Yu Wan finally picked forty people. She really couldn't stand those pitiful eyes, even though she was a demon who killed people without blinking an eye.

Yu Wan paid the silver and took the people to Xiao Bo for processing, and she walked around the city.

She walked in the crowd and looked around, like a curious baby. This county town is indeed much more prosperous than the town, and there is really everything you need to eat, wear and use.

The public security is also good, and there are yamen runners patrolling from time to time.

When Yu Wan passed a grocery store, she stepped in.

"Young guest, what do you need?"

When the waiter saw Yu Wan coming in, he hurried forward. He had been waiting for a long time but no customer came in. The first person to come in was a little girl.

"Let me take a look first," Yu Wan looked along the shelves.

The shelves were filled with complete items, porcelain, ceramics, and even pots and pans.

Yu Wan turned to another shelf, which also had some things she was not interested in.

"Huh? What is this?"

Yu Wan saw that the ground next to the shelf was full of bags and wooden boxes.
