When Fu Qiuyang returned to Shangpin Pavilion, he did not see Shangguan Qingyue. After asking, he found out that it was her maid who called her away.

Suddenly, a man as beautiful as a peach blossom came into the shop. The girls who were choosing clothes were all attracted by the man in front of them.

Their faces flushed and their hearts beat faster. They wanted to take another look, but it was too abrupt. However, they couldn't help but sneak a few more glances.

Familiar yet unfamiliar fiery gazes came from all directions. Fu Qiuyang felt uncomfortable all over and hurriedly fled back to the backyard.

He sighed in his heart, how vulgar people are in this world, always judging people by appearance! When he dressed up as a bearded man, he was disliked and even despised by many people.

In comparison, Shangguan Yunxin seemed even more precious. Which girl could be as indifferent to the scars on her face as she was? Humph, only his Yunxin could do that!

Oh, I miss her so much!

……

Bing Ling was not good at speaking, so she just said that Young Master Li was in a bad mood and was eating dessert in the store. The female shopkeeper was worried and asked her to tell Shangguan Qingyue.

Young Master Li is Little Stone, and since he is registered under the name Li Dali, his surname is naturally Li. He is a small ball, sitting in the corner of the store, with a white cat in his arms, and a black cat squatting on his shoulder.

Walking up to the little guy, Shangguan Qingyue couldn't help laughing at the warm and funny scene in front of him.

"Our little Shitou doesn't seem very happy. Did the students in the academy bully you?"

Lifting his little face from the cake, he found that white cream had stuck to it. Little Stone replied sullenly:

"No, Ruoxi, I just missed you a little.

Also, what the teacher teaches is too simple, I can learn it without studying, is it okay if I don't go?"

The original plan was to find a teacher to study at home for the child, but it was found that he was too young, and going to school and having more contact with outsiders would help his healthy growth.

So Shangguan Chong helped find a well-known academy in the capital, where Xiao Shitou was the youngest student.

The headmaster of the academy was his former classmate and friend, and the two had always kept in close contact, so there was no need to worry about the child being bullied in the academy.

The little guy was obviously hiding something, so Shangguan Qingyue didn't rush to ask him. Instead, she picked up the black cat on his shoulder and sat opposite him.

"The shop sells food for consumption. Didn't I tell you not to bring in Wuyun and Chiyu? What if cat hair flies onto the cakes or into the customers' water cups?"

The little fellow held Chiyu in his arms tighter and whispered:

"Only dark clouds and ruler-shaped jade will not shed hair..."

"Hmm?" A warning voice sounded beside him, and he immediately changed his words:

"I was wrong. I just brought them here to play with you because I felt sorry for the two cats who couldn't see you all day. There won't be a next time."

Shangguan Qingyue sighed softly, took out a towel and wiped the cream-stained cheek of the aggrieved child, and asked softly:

"Why don't you say anything when you're wronged outside? You're not even six years old yet, you should be acting like a spoiled brat everywhere and asking adults to back you up!"

But he already thinks he is an adult, and even those so-called adults are not as smart as him!

Little Stone thought this silently in his heart, but did not refute it out loud. Ruoxi only hoped that he would grow up happily and safely, which was also the origin of his name.

As expected, Shangguan Qingyue raised her voice slightly and said:

“Anle…”

"Okay, I'll tell you." He dared not continue to act willfully since his name had been called out. The little guy immediately sat up straight, looking very obedient.

Shangguan Qingyue: ...

Little Stone's ears turned red and he told the whole story reluctantly.

It turned out that even though he had the protection of the headmaster in the academy, his white hair still caused him a lot of trouble. These things didn't really affect him much, so he just ignored them. He didn't need to make friends in the academy.

The fuse of the incident was actually a little beggar.

A little beggar took a different approach and stayed at the gate of the academy all day, thinking that scholars would be more sympathetic than ordinary people, and maybe he could beg for a lot of money.

However, most of the students in the academy are in their teens, which is the age of rebellion and noise. Many times, the pranks that they think are fun will cause indelible harm to others.

Little Stone accidentally encountered a group of students surrounding the little beggar, laughing, scolding, beating and kicking him. This scene immediately reminded him of all the unbearable experiences he had in the village.

But he was too young, and no one paid attention to his words of dissuasion. Not only that, he even hurt the little beggar even more. He didn't stop until the child stopped making any more noise.

"What happened next? Is the beggar okay?"

Shangguan Qingyue became extremely anxious after hearing this. The idea that 'human life is of paramount importance' was deeply rooted in her mind. Other things could be put aside for the time being. What she cared most about was whether the beggar was still alive.

"I ran to the headmaster for help, and he sent someone to take the beggar to the clinic. Fortunately, the beggar was sent to the hospital in time and his life was saved.

But, Ruoxi,

The little guy raised his tear-stained face and said aggrievedly:

"The doctor said that the beggar's ribs were broken and he fainted from the pain! How could those people be so cruel? It's pitiful enough that the beggar has no parents to love him, and he has to suffer so much!

Isn’t the purpose of studying to gain knowledge? It seems that the academy cannot teach and educate people. I don’t want to go there anymore.”

What he didn't say was that the dean later severely punished those students who hurt people, and they blamed it all on him. Until today, all kinds of small actions to torment people have never stopped, which annoyed him.

“What happened before the next day?”

Xiao Shitou was very precocious, and Shangguan Qingyue guessed that he had been patient for a long time.

The little fellow moved his fingers habitually, and then replied: "It has been twenty-three days since today. Ruoxi, don't worry. The little beggar is almost well now. The medical expenses were paid by Grandpa Shanzhang."

This child’s memory is still as good as ever!

Shangguan Qingyue rubbed the little guy's head with concern, and asked someone to add a cup of osmanthus honey milk. After watching him drink half a cup, he continued to ask:

"Did that group of people keep bullying you? Tell me who they were, and we'll go to their house tomorrow to settle the score!"

Little Stone's eyes suddenly widened, and he refused subconsciously:

"no need!"

This is a matter between children, and it seems spineless to involve the elders.

"Why not? We must not show mercy to bad guys. They are in the wrong and they are bullying the weak and the few. This is wrong!

If a son is not well educated, it is the fault of his father. The elders of those students cannot escape blame either.”

Little Stone lowered his head and drank a mouthful of sweet milk, lost in thought: Is that so? It seems to make sense...

So early the next morning, Shangguan Qingyue took Xiao Shitou and Bingling and sat in the mansion's carriage, preparing to go door to door looking for the parents' home.

When Xiao Shitou got off the bus, he was still holding a gong in his hand. He asked in confusion:

"Ruoxi, why do we have to hold the gong?"

"Of course, it's to deal with unreasonable people. If they are unkind, just bang the gong as hard as you can so that all the neighbors can hear it.

Bingling, our safety is now in your hands. If you can't beat them, run away and report to the county government."

Bing Ling: ...

If she dares to run, His Highness will break her legs.
