"How could it be him?"
Li Wenshi was shocked by his son's reaction.
Did this guy see a ghost?
"Why are you reacting so strongly? Is the heir of the Gong family not good enough for your sister? "
Of course?
Li Cheng said, "Father, anyone but him can't be her!"
"Why?"
"Because …" He didn't know what to say and hesitated. "Anyway, he can't be her!"
Li Wenshi was enraged and slammed the table. "Listen to me. If you dare to interfere and ruin your sister's marriage, I will skin you alive."
After leaving behind these harsh words, Li Wenshi left.
Li Cheng was left alone in the hall, trying his best to go crazy.
He was so angry that his face was red.
Although the Gong Family and his Li Family had always been friends, whether it was in the official circles or in private, they were always in cahoots with each other. But even so, he and Gong Shilin had been enemies since they were young.
Damn foe!
As for why, it had to start from when they were young. At that time, Gong Shilin was eight and Li Cheng was seven. The two of them were studying in the same private school and their relationship was lukewarm. Occasionally, when the two families gathered together, they could still talk. However, there was one time when the Headmaster wanted the students to write down the Long Poem from memory. However, Li Cheng had been a poor student since he was young and was very poor.
Li Cheng was a bad student and didn't listen in class. Gong Shilin was a straight-A student, so Li Cheng, who was sitting next to Gong Shilin, copied his poem. When Gong Shilin found out, he raised his hand and told the teacher.
In the end, Li Cheng was beaten twenty times with a ruler in front of all the students.
His palms were so hot that he felt like a layer of skin was about to be peeled off!
When he returned home, his father locked him up in the confinement room and punished him to copy the poem 200 times.
He remembered that it was the biggest humiliation and punishment he had received in his life.
Since then, he hated Gong Shilin to the core.
And he hated him to the core!
All these years, whenever he saw Gong Shilin on the street, he liked to say a few words to him and "never got tired of it."
Now that he heard that the person his sister had promised to was his enemy, how could he not be angry?
He wanted to rush to the Gong Residence and strangle that brat to death!
At the thought of that brat wanting to be his brother-in-law, he ground his molars so hard that they made a clicking sound.
Meanwhile, in the backyard.
After Li Wenshu returned to her courtyard, she was stunned.
He washed up and decided to rest.
As soon as she entered the inner room, she saw the books on the shelf that she usually used to store her books.
Eyes fixed.
Take a book from the top.
He flipped through it.
On it, it was densely packed with poems.
Every stroke was written by her.
But these poems did not come from her mouth.
It was Du Mubai.
She recorded all the poems that Du Mubai had written on it, one stroke at a time.
It was extremely detailed!
The maidservant entered the room, intending to light a piece of incense in the incense burner for her, but she saw her staring blankly at the book in her hand.
The maidservant didn't think too much about it. As she lit the incense for her, she said, "Miss, you've been gone for two years. The maids in the fu have been thinking about you. Every day, they've been waiting for you to come back. Now, you've finally come back."
Li Wenshu said nothing.
"Miss, you must not know that some time ago, Gong Zuo Xiang came to the fu several times."
In the past, Gong Zuo Xiang often came to the fu to drink tea and talk with Li Wenshi, but this had nothing to do with Li Wenshu. The maidservants never mentioned Gong Zuo Xiang coming to the fu in front of her, but now that the maidservants suddenly said this, there must be some other meaning.
Li Wenshu glanced at the maidservant and asked, "Why did you mention Gong Zuo Xiang out of nowhere?"
"Miss, you still don't know?"
"What should I know?"
The maidservant looked at her in surprise. "I thought you already knew that the Marquis has betrothed you to the heir of Gong Zuo Xiang."
Uh!
Li Wenshu was slightly startled.
But not too surprised!
However, the hand holding the book slightly tightened.
In fact, she had already thought of it!
The Li family and the Gong family were old friends. She and Gong Shilin had grown up together. There had always been rumors that Gong Shilin liked her, so this marriage was inevitable.
But she didn't expect that this day would come so soon.
She was silent for a while and said, "Oh."
The maidservant was puzzled. "Miss, you don't seem very happy."
"Is there?"
"Yes!"
"Don't make random guesses." Li Wenshu's tone was slightly heavier, with a hint of warning.
The maidservant quickly shut up.
Li Wenshu closed the book in her hand and took down the other books on top of it.
Then she threw them to the maidservant and said, "Burn these."
"Burn? Aren't these all written by Miss? "
"I said burn!"
"Oh!" The maidservant nodded repeatedly and carried the books out. As she went out, she muttered, "Why is Miss different from before?"
She felt fierce.
Li Wenshu ignored her and looked very calm.
She went to bed and covered herself with the quilt to sleep.
…
On the other side, after Li Cheng learned that his father betrothed his sister to Gong Shilin, he felt that the cabbage in his family was going to be eaten by a pig!
And that pig was his sworn enemy.
In a moment of anger, he rushed out of the fu and went straight to Gong Zuo Xiang's fu.
He wanted to kill that stinking brat.
Meanwhile, Gong Shilin was sitting in his own backyard, reading a book, completely unaware of the impending danger.
A servant walked over and said, "Young Master, I just received news that Miss Li has returned to the city. Prince Cheng also came back with her."
"Oh."
The servant thought that he didn't hear it and deliberately emphasized, "Young Master, Prince Cheng is back."
Gong Shilin put down the book in his hand and looked at the servant. "So?"
"When Prince Cheng was in Gaoding, he always targeted you. Now that he's back, he will definitely come looking for trouble every day."
As the saying goes, speak of the devil and he will appear.
It was indeed true.
From afar, someone could be heard shouting at the top of his voice, "Gong Shilin, come out!"
I want to duel with you!
Gong Shilin and the servant were stunned and looked at each other.
The servant slapped his thigh. "Aiya, it's Prince Cheng."
Just as he finished speaking, he saw Li Cheng rushing over angrily.
He was holding a wooden stick in his hand!
Seeing this, the servant immediately blocked in front of Gong Shilin. "Prince Cheng, what are you doing? My young master didn't offend you. "
Li Cheng glared at Gong Shilin, who was behind the servant. "Gong, listen to me. You can marry anyone but my sister. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
He waved the wooden stick in his hand that he picked up from the roadside.
Gong Shilin wasn't afraid of him, but he looked helpless.
