Chapter 343 You should be responsible for the girl.
Lu Shao was too lazy to even watch the show and prepared to go upstairs directly.
Then I heard the woman sarcastically mocking several men, who were also her elders.
The faces of those people changed after being confronted, and they walked away with gloomy faces and sleeves twirled.
Only then did Lu Shao glance at the woman.
I found that the other party not only imitated the young wife's way of scolding people, but also looked somewhat similar.
Temperament is also imitating.
It seems that Wu Zhiheng and others are well prepared this time.
But it is only similar in form but not in spirit, just an ugly imitation.
Lu Shao quickly withdrew his gaze and walked upstairs without any interest.
He likes his young wife just because of the feeling in his heart, not just because of her appearance or personality.
She is unique to him and no one can replace her.
So no matter how much she pretends to be like her, even if she is not pretending and really looks like her, she is not his wife.
Lu Shao had just taken a few steps when the woman came downstairs at the same time.
He seemed to be in a hurry to leave, but suddenly he slipped.
Suddenly, he fell towards Lu Shao who was about to go upstairs.
If it were any other man, he would lend a hand, whether out of courtesy or compassion for the woman.
If you encounter someone who is slow to react or wants to take advantage of you.
If you just don't move, the other person will fall into your arms.
Lu Shao reacted quickly, the moment the other party slipped and fell towards him.
He just turned sideways and dodged.
Rather than helping him up or letting the other person fall into his arms, he took the initiative to avoid him, allowing the other person to tumble down the stairs in a mess.
In Lu Shao's case, no matter if it is a man or a woman, as long as they want to plot against him, they will be treated the same and have the same result.
When the woman fell down the stairs, he didn't even turn around to look and went straight upstairs.
After taking a few steps, Hu Xueyi's voice came from downstairs.
"Brother Lu, are you going a little too far?"
Lu Shao turned around and looked, "What do you mean, Brother Hu?"
Hu Xueyi had already reached out and helped the woman who fell down the stairs up.
She looked like she was hurt from the fall, her eyes were a little red and she wanted to cry, but she was strong enough not to cry.
The look he gave Lu Shao showed no resentment or anger, only a frown.
This kind of reaction seems a little different.
After all, if it were any other woman, she would probably blame Lu Shao for not helping.
The weaker ones might have already cried out of grievance.
Hu Xueyi said with a righteous look: "Just now this young lady accidentally slipped and fell down."
"You didn't catch him or lend a hand."
"He actually took the initiative to move out of the way, allowing a weak woman to fall from the building."
"You're going too far."
"You are the top scholar in the imperial examination, how come you don't even have this little bit of manners?"
Hearing this, people who were eating on the first floor, or going up to the second or downstairs all looked at Lu Shao.
There was also a look of disapproval in his eyes, feeling that his behavior was indeed ungraceful.
Lu Shao was not surprised that Hu Xueyi jumped out.
This was originally arranged by the other party.
It seems that the Hu family has already boarded the Fifth Prince's ship, and has a vested interest in Wu Zhiheng.
He looked at Hu Xueyi and said calmly, "Men and women should not touch each other. Master Hu, you are a scholar, don't you even understand this principle?"
"I have a wife, and I promised her that she would be my only wife in this life."
"There won't be any extramarital affairs. Besides her, there won't be other women or concubines."
"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Now that I have made a promise, I must keep it."
He also said this on purpose to express his attitude to the outside world.
What this means is that no one should even bother trying to get him a woman from now on, because he’s not interested.
Then he added: "If I don't move aside and the girl falls into my arms, there will be no clean relationship between her and me."
"What should I do with her?"
He glanced meaningfully at Hu Xueyi, who had helped the woman up and had not yet let go of her arm.
"Mr. Hu, you are a scholar. The girl has a maid with her. If she falls, there will be a maid to help her up."
"Not only did you have physical contact with an unmarried woman in public, but now you're still reluctant to let her go."
"Your behavior is against the way of a gentleman."
He seemed to suddenly react, "I remember that you often mentioned to us recently that you admired a woman who was engaged in business."
"Just now I heard this girl arguing with the elders. She should be the woman you admired."
"I think your doubts about me are fake. What you really want is to show off in front of this girl and win her favor."
"But even if you like the girl, you don't have to step on me to show how graceful you are."
He frowned and looked disdainful of being associated with the other party, "I never thought that you, Mr. Hu, would be such a hypocrite."
"I really misjudged you before. Let's not have any contact in the future."
It was a good excuse to break up with this person in public.
He also felt a little regretful, and sighed deliberately with sarcasm, "Your knowledge is not too bad to begin with. If you had put more of your thoughts on women into the imperial examination, you would not have failed this time."
"Mr. Hu, you grabbed the girl's arm and wouldn't let go. Are you trying to destroy her innocence?"
"So that's an advantage?"
It was as if he couldn't help but persuade her: "If you have the grace and sense of responsibility, you should be responsible for the girl."
He shook his head and sighed again, "Forget it, we have broken up, I won't say any more."
"Just take care of yourself."
After Lu Shao finished speaking, he ignored Hu Xueyi and turned around and went upstairs.
By the time Hu Xueyi reacted, Lu Shao's figure had disappeared down the stairwell.
Only then did he realize that because he wanted to find something to hold against Lu Shao, he forgot to let go after helping him up.
His face darkened, "I, I didn't."
At this time, after hearing what Lu Shao said, the others looked at Hu Xueyi with something strange in their eyes.
"This guy is too impatient. When he saw the girl fall, he rushed forward to take advantage of her."
"I already have a maid, do I need him to help me?"
"Didn't you hear what Lu Jieyuan said?"
"He has had his eyes on this girl for a long time, and he must have done it on purpose just now."
"Yes, men and women should not touch each other. Lu Jieyuan's approach is correct."
"Otherwise, if you have physical contact with a girl and you cannot marry her or take her as your wife, that would be ungraceful and irresponsible."
"If Lu Jieyuan hadn't reminded him, Mr. Hu would still be reluctant to let go of the girl's arm."
"I never thought that Mr. Hu, who looks serious, is actually a scoundrel."
"No wonder you said so arrogantly before that you would pass the exam if you did well, but in the end you failed."
"It seems that his mind is focused on women and how to take advantage of other girls."
"They are doing this in public. Mr. Hu should really be responsible for the girl."
"That's exactly what he wanted."
"So he did it on purpose, and even scolded Lu Jieyuan for being rude."
"He himself failed the exam, so he must be jealous of Lu Jieyuan, so he threw dirty water on him and wanted to ruin his reputation."
"It's really insulting and shows how morals are going downhill!"
There were many students present who had just finished the imperial examinations and they attached great importance to etiquette.
No matter what you think in your heart, men and women should not touch each other, but you must abide by it in public.
In addition, Hu Xueyi has always been the type of person who flatters the powerful and bullies the weak, which makes many people dislike him.
Now he is deliberately following Lu Shao to step on him.
