The servant boy didn't know any of this and thought the shopkeeper was helping the old man, feeling extremely aggrieved.
He always considered the guesthouse, how could the shopkeeper help others and not himself? He found it incomprehensible.
The shopkeeper faced the old man and immediately put on a benevolent and kind expression, smilingly saying: "Sir, come down first, we can talk things over."
This made the servant boy feel even more uncomfortable.
Shopkeeper, what do you mean? I kindly think about your guesthouse, and you're helping this old man who almost murdered me, where has your conscience gone? Was it eaten by a dog? The servant boy fumed inwardly, but externally, he continued to stand obediently, no choice, poor people are like this, even when angry, they have to bottle it up when faced with the boss.
The old man rushed down aggressively, angrily questioning: "Shopkeeper, I ask you, why do others stay first and pay later, but why must I pay first before staying?"
