Chapter 90: A Toad Wants to Eat Swan Meat
"Miss Tang and Mr. Liu are truly a match made in heaven, and they are the only one of their kind in the world!" Outside the gate of the county school, the lackeys in Confucian robes complimented them.
"Yes, Mr. Liu is the only son of the governor of Yingzhou, and his status is noble. And Miss Tang is the legitimate daughter of the Tang family, and her status is equally noble..."
"Mr. Liu, when are you going to the county government office to propose marriage?"
"We are all waiting to attend Young Master Liu's wedding, hahaha..."
“…”
The flatteries from the lackeys continued, becoming more and more unpleasant and outrageous.
But Liu Ziyun smiled happily after hearing this, feeling very excited, and his eyes narrowed into two small slits.
Su Xian and Lin Chuan walked out of the county school gate side by side.
Hearing these dirty words, Lin Chuan couldn't help but clench his fists.
Tang Shuwan is the legitimate daughter of a noble family. She is someone he needs to look up to and the goddess in his mind. He doesn't even dare to think about marrying Tang Shuwan.
However, Liu Ziyun's bunch of lackeys actually said such words, which was simply an insult to the goddess in his heart...
But Lin Chuan still endured it.
On the opposite side, the high-spirited Liu Ziyun glanced at Lin Chuan, his eyes swept across Su Xian, and he did not find any fault with Lin Chuan, pretending not to see it.
Lin Chuan and Liu Ziyun had been at odds with each other since a long time ago.
A few days ago, at the poetry banquet held by the fairy girl Zi in Pinyu Pavilion, Liu Ziyun's determined top poet was snatched away by Lin Chuan without a word...
Afterwards, when they returned to the county school, a fierce conflict broke out between the two, which became a big fuss.
But in the end, the matter was settled with the mediation of the Doctor of Scriptures, and a delicate balance and tacit understanding was reached.
This is why the goddess in Lin Chuan's heart was humiliated but he endured it. It is also the fundamental reason why Liu Ziyun did not have any malicious intentions to find trouble with Lin Chuan.
but--
Just because Lin Chuan endured it doesn’t mean Su Xian also endured it.
In a broader sense, Su Xian was once a member of a noble family. In a narrower sense, Su Xian called Tang Shuwan "Xian Mei".
No matter how big or small, Su Xian has reasons to be angry.
Lin Chuan, who was walking forward silently with clenched fists, suddenly found that his good brother beside him suddenly stopped, then turned around and confronted Liu Ziyun and his lackeys.
"Brother Su?"
Lin Chuan was stunned for a moment, then turned around and stood side by side with Su Xian.
Liu Ziyun's expression changed, and his two small eyes emitted a scrutinizing light, passing by Lin Chuan and falling on Su Xian.
The lackeys also stopped their flattery and had different expressions on their faces.
"Your name is Su Xian, right?" Liu Ziyun spoke with a cold glance. He used to have conflicts with Lin Chuan, and he didn't know much about Su Xian, Lin Chuan's only friend.
"That's right." Su Xian replied.
Liu Ziyun showed a playful smile, looked at Lin Chuan and said: "Why do you want to go against me?"
Lin Chuan was about to speak, but Su Xian stopped him. He only heard Su Xian say, "I will wait for Miss Tang here and then escort her back to the mansion!"
Su Xian's voice was neither loud nor domineering, but it sounded like a bolt from the blue to everyone's ears.
Did you hear that right?
Su Xian actually wants to have sex with Liu Ziyun!
Lin Chuan was stunned for a moment, then silently gave Su Xian a hundred thumbs up in his heart, thinking: "Great, brother, you are more promising than me. You even dare to hit on Tang Shuwan, wow!"
Liu Ziyun looked stunned. He scratched his ears and glanced back and forth between Lin Chuan and Su Xian's faces.
The lackeys were all stunned at first, like clay sculptures, and then they clapped their hands and beat their legs and laughed, mockingly saying:
"You? You, a poor fellow, want to have sex with Mr. Liu?"
"Toad wants to eat!"
"Ms. Tang is so noble! She is the daughter of an aristocratic family. Only Master Liu can be her match. What do you think you are, a pretty boy?"
"You bastard, are you worthy of Miss Tang? Miss Tang won't even look at you!"
“No self-awareness!”
“…”
"Su Xian? Is he the one who made stinky tofu?" Liu Ziyun suddenly asked.
"Yes, that's him!"
"Not only that, he also cooperated with a widow. Tsk tsk, even though the tofu beauty has a bad reputation, she can't stand people trying to get close to her..."
"As a scholar, you are making stinky tofu. It's shameful. It's a disgrace to scholars like me!"
"Mr. Liu married the daughter of a noble family, while you can only flirt with a widow with a bad reputation. Haha, the difference is obvious."
“…”
Su Xian's face turned pale and he retorted, "Mrs. Liu is innocent and will not tolerate your foul language."
When Lin Chuan, who was standing beside him, heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought to himself, "Hey, he lied to me and said he lost the Soul-Loving Incense, I'm afraid he has been together with that pretty widow for a long time..."
The lackeys on the opposite side became even more excited, swearing at random. It was hard to believe that they were educated people.
Su Xian remained motionless, but Lin Chuan was furious and jumped up to curse at them. The entrance of the county school suddenly became very lively, and more and more people gathered to watch the fun.
Liu Ziyun was very angry. If Lin Chuan jumped out to snatch the woman from him, it would be understandable, after all, Lin Chuan had the Lin family to support him.
But what did Su Xian have ? How dare he snatch a woman from him?
So, although Liu Ziyun was very angry, he did not solve the problem immediately.
The most urgent task is to pick up Tang Shuwan first...
The crowd gathered around and quickly figured out what was going on. Someone asked with interest, "Hey, who do you think will pick up Miss Tang?"
"Is there any need to ask? Of course it's Master Liu!" someone responded.
"I think so, too. Young Master Liu is the only son of the envoy, and he has a noble status. As for this guy...what's his name? Su Xian, right? Hey, isn't Su Xian the one who invented stinky tofu?"
"Stinky tofu? It's nothing in front of Master Liu. Just wait and see. Miss Tang won't even look at Su Xian when she comes out!"
“…”
The situation at the gate of the county school has become a complete mess.
The noise and heated discussions were mixed together, and it was as noisy as a vegetable market.
At this time, someone shouted: "Miss Tang is out!"
As soon as the words fell, the noise stopped immediately, and everyone turned their heads at the same time, looking at the group of young ladies inside the gate of the county school.
They came in groups, beautiful ladies, plump and thin, with Tang Shuwan as the leader.
After the girls noticed something strange outside the county school, they stopped chattering, lowered their heads and walked out quickly. At the same time, they were very confused. Why were there so many people watching here?
Tang Shuwan walked out of the county school gate and when she looked up, she saw Liu Ziyun walking towards her with a smile on his face.
A smile appeared on his dark face, and his two small eyes narrowed into a line.
He suddenly stopped three feet in front of Tang Shuwan, blocking the way of the beauties.
Then he bowed and said loudly: "Miss Tang, I have been waiting here for a long time. I wonder if I have the honor to escort you back home?"
He is quite polite.
Because he had to be polite.
Tang Shuwan is not an ordinary woman, she is the legitimate daughter of the Tang family!
Although Liu Ziyun pestered her, he didn't dare to go too far, let alone do anything reckless.
After being stopped, Tang Shuwan sighed dejectedly, her eyebrows raised, and she felt nauseous and powerless at the same time.
It is true that Liu Ziyun did not dare to act recklessly, but he could not be driven away either, which was a headache.
After sighing, Tang Shuwan suddenly raised her eyes and found a handsome figure in Confucian clothes not far away.
She was stunned for a moment, and the expressions of discomfort and nausea on her face were filled with "joy".
Then, holding up the hem of her skirt with both hands, she walked around Liu Ziyun who was blocking her way and trotted away in brisk steps.
