"Sir, we can't tolerate this anymore!"
One of the men was filled with righteous indignation. His fair face was flushed with anger, and it was obvious that he was enraged.
Mister Liang stroked his beard, looking troubled.
However, he only looked at the man and did not speak.
"Mister Liang, you are a person of virtue and prestige, and we all respect you. As long as you say the word, we will immediately follow you and clean up the atmosphere! "
Although the other person was cultured and refined, his words were filled with ruthless seriousness.
After the two men took the lead to speak, everyone began to discuss animatedly.
In the end, the voices grew louder and louder, as if they were itching to try and flip the roof.
Mister Liang looked left and right, and the worry in his eyes deepened.
His fists, which were placed on his knees, were also unconsciously clenched.
Although he was reasonable in his conduct, he had incurred the wrath of the masses now.
If he was alone, he would let them do as they wished.
However, the framework of the Si Tai Academy had just been built. If it collapsed now, he would have to start from scratch.
If that happened, he would fail the Gong family's expectations.
However, if he did as they wished …
He could see that while Mr. Su Mei was a little sharp-tongued, he had a pure heart for the Four Tai Academy.
Others might not know this, but from the time they spent together, Mister Su was indeed responsible for the academy.
Especially after the Fourth Young Master handed over all the power and responsibilities to her, as long as it was beneficial to the academy, Mr. Su would do it perfectly.
Therefore, he could guarantee that no matter what Mister Su's character was, she was definitely sincere for the academy.
However …
He glanced at his colleagues who were arguing, and the knot between his brows tightened.
Wasn't everything fine a few days ago? Why did they have to chase Su Mei out now?
Mister Liang looked outside the door. He had previously sent a page boy to the Gong family to inform them. He did not know if the young masters of the Gong family had received the news.
Sigh, this burden was not easy to carry!
Mister Liang was slow and did not have a straightforward attitude. It was obvious that he was delaying.
On the other side, Qi Yue's mind was also spinning.
Normally, it was not easy for him to make friends with others. Moreover, because he was a teacher invited by the Gong Family, those people seemed to respect him on the surface, but he had heard a lot of sarcastic remarks behind his back.
He had his own understanding of what had happened today.
Coldly looking at these clowns, he just watched from the sidelines.
His many years of experience told him that Mr. Su was not someone who could be driven away so easily!
"Miss, we will definitely succeed this time!"
In the corner of Zhiwei Hall, Liang Yue could not wait to admire the results of her victory.
Seeing those people hating that bitch to the bone, she only felt extremely happy.
"Let's see how Su Mei will turn the tables!"
Liang Yue smugly curled her lips. That person was right indeed.
As long as Su Mei was rejected, the Fourth Young Master would be hers!
Unbeknownst to them, the main character did not take these matters to heart at all.
"Little sister, why don't we go in now?"
Outside Zhiwei Hall, Lin Mengya suddenly stopped in her tracks. She crossed her arms and leaned against the wall.
Gong San let her be, but the voices inside were getting louder and louder, and he could hear them clearly.
However, he did not know why his little sister, who had always been unwilling to suffer a loss, let those people bark at her.
"Don't worry, they haven't shown their fangs yet. If we go in now, won't all our previous efforts be wasted?
”
She looked at Gong San with evil eyes. Gong San's heart skipped a beat.
How to put it, he had never seen such a little sister.
She was like an aggressive leopard, quietly approaching, and at the same time stretching out her sharp claws, waiting for the moment the prey showed a flaw, and quickly reaped the prey's life.
Originally, he was very angry, but now, he felt sad for the people inside.
That was because opponents were never on equal footing.
"You mean …"
Gong San looked at her with some doubt in his eyes.
Lin Mengya pointed inside contemptuously, but her eyes were looking at the sky in the distance.
"Third Brother, if hungry people guard a huge sweet cake for others every day, they will be poor for their whole lives. Do you think they will think it's fair if they spend their entire lives eating these scraps? "
Gong San thought for a while, and then he smiled.
"So, they want to seize this sweet cake before it has no owner?"
"Yes, so I think that a person's virtue has nothing to do with talent or not. Greed is greed. Even if he is knowledgeable, he only learned to be insatiable. "
Even in ancient and modern times, in China and abroad, most of the literati held an attitude of contempt towards money.
They felt that all things were inferior, but the irony was that it was money and power that could test them the most.
But what kind of person was Lin Mengya?
When Haozi tried to steal her vegetable oil, she could even make Haozi pay her back with two taels of silver.
How could she allow these people to take advantage of her for no reason?
"That makes sense. Sorry, I was too narrow-minded in the past."
Gong San had thought that his little sister said those words to comfort him to help him get out of the knot in his heart.
He didn't expect that the situation in the academy was really so bad.
If he had entered the academy from the very beginning, the situation would not have become so hostile.
"Yes, it's all your fault."
Just now, she pretended to be aggrieved and complained. Then, she couldn't hold it in anymore. She smiled with her eyes and brows curved.
"So, Third Brother, you have to do your best for the academy to make up for it!"
Gong San was stunned, and finally couldn't help smiling brightly.
He touched her head as if he was coaxing a child, and responded to her gently.
"Okay."
Even if it was for nothing else, he would try his best to get out of the past, just for the sake of his little sister's protection.
The past couldn't be changed, and only the future could be hoped for.
"Mr. Liang, let me say something that I shouldn't say. Yes, the Gong Family did pay for the construction of the academy. But everyone knows that they built it under the order of His Majesty. In this case, the imperial court must have given them a lot of money. Since it was given by the imperial court, the whole country should have a share. In this case, why should the Gong Family alone be the judge? This is very unfair! "
Lin Mengya's eyes lit up. She had waited for so long in vain. Finally, there was an idiot who brought the matter to the main point.
As soon as she said that, there was a moment of silence.
Then, another person came to the door.
"That's right. Even if the Gong Family has the credit of supervising the construction, now that the academy has been built, it's time for them to retire. This will also preserve the Gong Family's good name. Otherwise, when the academy's reputation is ruined, the Gong Family will be the sinners of the whole world! "
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows, and the anger in her heart grew stronger.
Retire after succeeding, and the sinners of the whole world!
They tried to erase all the credit of the Gong Family with just a few words, and now they wanted to use this as a threat to force the Gong Family to hand over the management of the academy.
It seemed that the Gong Family had been too lenient with them.
Seeing that things were getting more and more out of hand, even Mr. Liang felt that they had gone too far.
"You can't say that about this matter. It's an indisputable fact that the Gong Family built the Si Tai Academy. If my colleagues feel that the Gong Family has done anything wrong, then I'll apologize on behalf of the Gong Family … "
Mr. Liang had wanted to smooth things over and delay the matter before making a plan.
However, before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted.
"Mr. Liang, you can't say that. We've seen how much you've worked for the academy. That's why we all feel that you should be the first director of the Si Tai Academy! "
Mr. Liang cursed inwardly. These people were determined to drag him onto their pirate ship.
Just as he was about to decline, he heard a familiar voice coming from behind him.
"Father, since everyone has said so, you should just accept it."
Mr. Liang turned around in shock and anger, only to see his youngest daughter walking towards him with a smile.
His face darkened and he reprimanded her.
"What does a girl like you know? Hurry up and go back. Don't talk nonsense!"
Unexpectedly, not only did Liang Yue not listen to him, she even went forward and grabbed his sleeve.
"Father, I also think that everyone has a point. After all, with your talent and virtue, you're worthy of being the director. Moreover, you've spent your entire life on the academy. I think you're deserving of this position! "
Liang Yue's words immediately gained everyone's approval.
Mr. Liang, on the other hand, became anxious and glared at his daughter.
This child was so muddle-headed!
She shouldn't have gotten involved in this matter.
Now, it had completely ruined his position.
"Hurry up and go back! This is not the place for you to speak! "
He put on a stern face and shouted in a low voice.
However, Liang Yue put on an extremely aggrieved expression, straightening her neck and shouting.
"Father, even if you don't want me to say it, I have to say it! Let's not talk about the fact that this academy was built according to His Majesty's decree. Just look at the person the Gong Family sent in, Su Mei, is domineering and immoral. One is Su Yan, arrogant, and the other is arrogant and virtuous. For people like them to be treated as guests by the Gong Family, it's clear that their judgment and temperament are similar to those three … "
"Slap!"
Every word and sentence made Mr. Liang's heart go cold.
This slap made his heart ache, and at the same time, it made him tremble with fear.
"Get lost! If you continue to say such nonsense here, I'll pretend that I never had a daughter like you! "
Liang Yue covered her face and could not come back to her senses for a long time.
She felt a burning pain on her cheek, but she only looked at her father in shock.
Since young, because she was the youngest and the smartest, she had received the most love.
