"Pfft! That sounds really reasonable! I don't know how to refute it."

"Hey! Young man, is your father your father?"

"Yeah! You have to prove it first, then I can prove it!"

The diners in the queue were enjoying the fun and started shouting.

Anyway, they have nothing to do while waiting in line, and it's not that the braised food is hard to buy, so it's a shame not to watch such a joke, it's quite amusing.

Chen Gen's face flushed with anger, and his blood boiled. "My father is my father! How can I prove it? Isn't it ridiculous?

You are clearly talking about this shop, why are you bringing me into this?!"

Not only was he humiliated by his second aunt, whom he had always looked down upon, he was also laughed at by a group of ignorant fools. Even his classmates quietly stepped aside and no one paid any attention to him.

As soon as these words came out, even the students who were studying with him couldn't stand it anymore. "It's ridiculous to ask you to prove yourself. Isn't it even more ridiculous to ask others to produce evidence?"

"Yeah, why do you have two sets of standards for yourself and others? If you can't do it yourself, why do you ask others to do it?"

"You are the one who insists on picking on others. You are only allowed to talk about others, but others cannot talk about you? What kind of logic is this?"

Under normal circumstances, if Chen Gen was bullied by a few classmates, he would have exploded long ago, but today, Song Zhibai was here, so he didn't dare to do so.

Although Song Zhibai stood aside silently, his expression was very impatient.

But if he said nothing, wouldn't he lose all face? He was clearly the victim.

Chen Gen had no choice but to reorganize his words and refuted: "If she wants to prove whether this shop is hers, she only needs to show the deed.

They can't prove it, but instead they're making a fuss and asking me to prove that my father is my father. How can I prove this? Isn't this just a deliberate insult?"

Everyone looked at him as if he were a fool when they heard what he said. They originally wanted to laugh at a joke and have fun, but who knew that this guy was not very smart and instead got angrier and angrier the more they looked at him.

"You are a scholar, how come you still don't understand what people are saying? People have already told you, how can I prove to you who you are?"

"That's right. We don't care who owns this shop. What is there to prove? Isn't it enough that the braised food is delicious?"

"Yeah, go back to your father right away, and stop whining. You're wasting our time!"

"If you don't want to buy anything, leave now. Stop standing there and talk nonsense! If you have nothing to do, go home and ask your father to do a blood test to prove your relationship with you!"

Chen Gen was completely dumbfounded. Why were these people so stubborn? They said he didn't understand what people were saying, but they were the ones who didn't understand what people were saying!

"I am doing this for everyone's good. They are a fraud and their products might not be clean!

And he is a thief! He was a dirty boy when he was little, stealing my brush. Who knows what he has added to it now? How dare you eat it?"

Chen Gen was at a disadvantage and felt anxious. He happened to see Zhang Shaowen looking at him inside. He immediately felt that he had found a breakthrough and started pointing at him and shouting.

Everyone also looked towards the window. How come there was suddenly another thief?

Zhang Shaowen was suddenly dragged into the battle and almost couldn't react. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Cheng Yue's cold voice.

"What? After you failed to slander us, you started to bite people randomly like a mad dog?"

Chen Gen was furious, "He is the thief! Zhang Shaowen, do you dare to do it but not admit it?"

Regarding this matter, after Cheng Yue and others' persuasion yesterday, Zhang Shaowen's worries have been resolved a lot.

Facing Chen Gen's slander again, he shouted: "Who dares to do it but not admit it! It's obviously you who deliberately framed me, and you still have the nerve to accuse me first!

I swear to God that if I have ever stolen anything, I will die a miserable death. Do you dare to swear that you have never slandered anyone? "

"Even if he swore an oath, it must not be true."

"I think so too. Look at this fat boy. He's like a madman, talking about this and that. He must be a bit mentally ill."

"Look at him, he's so scared, his face is pale, it seems he is guilty!"

Every word that everyone said fell into Chen Gen's ears, making him feel as if he was struck by lightning.

The second uncle and second aunt have changed, the fool has also changed, even Zhang Shaowen, who has never dared to go against him, has become bolder. Didn't he dare to fart before? How could this happen!

Cheng Jun grabbed Chen Gen by the collar and warned:

"How can there be such a vicious person like you? It seems that even the books of sages can't teach you well. It's better to throw you directly to the government and let you learn the truth!"

If he hadn't been afraid that Chen Gen would really go to the government office and affect the reputation of his aunt's family, he would have just taken him away. Why would he listen to him slandering them here!

Chen Gen was scared when he heard about the government. His second uncle's family was so calm, and he couldn't be sure who owned the shop.

He hadn't been home for some time, who knew what had happened at home? What if this shop really belonged to his second uncle?

And Zhang Shaowen was deliberately framed by him. If he were to be found out, he would be finished.

Falsely accusing others will result in fines, beatings with a stick, and possibly even imprisonment!

The academy will definitely expel him, and his future will be completely ruined!

Chen Gen's face turned pale and he twisted his fat body a few times, but Cheng Jun was too strong and he couldn't break free at all.

A real man can bend and stretch, so what if he has to bow his head temporarily?

Chen Gen begged for mercy: "Please let me go, I am confused, I will never say nonsense again!"

Everyone looked down upon him even more after hearing what he said. They had thought he was capable of something, but he had been so persistent just now and now he was giving in.

How dare you speak nonsense when you can't bear the consequences?

Gao Sheng said disdainfully: "Just send him to the authorities! Keeping such a person in the academy is simply a disgrace to the academy!"

Qingfeng Academy is a private academy jointly founded by several successful candidates in the imperial examinations. The only bad thing about it is that anyone can come as long as they can afford the tuition.

The tuition fee is not very high, and the teachers in the academy are truly talented and knowledgeable, so Qingfeng Academy has always had a good reputation.

Accepting everyone who comes can be considered as earning some money to make a living, which is not a big deal. It also lowers the threshold for studying in disguise, which is a good thing.

But lowering the threshold for studying does not mean lowering the moral threshold. The academy will definitely not tolerate people like Chen Gen.

Song Zhibai frowned. The county magistrate was his uncle, so he should avoid suspicion. If he spoke up, it would not be good.

Cheng Jun pushed Chen Gen away and looked at Cheng Yue.

How to deal with Chen Gen ultimately depends on the opinion of the aunt. If he is dealt with, it will make it difficult for the aunt to live, which would be counterproductive.

For him, his idea was the same as Gao Sheng's. Such vicious people should be severely punished!

Cheng Yue received Cheng Jun's questioning look and said coldly, "If you dare to slander others, you must bear the consequences. Send him to see the official!"

Chen Gen is ignorant of the immensity of the world. This day would have to come sooner or later. Since he insists on provoking me, there is no reason to let him go. The sooner he goes to jail, the sooner I can have peace of mind.

Zhang Shaowen felt his heart pounding. He had finally waited for this day!

Cheng Jun hesitated and said, "Aunt, then you guys..."
