The entire place was so silent that even a pin drop could be heard.
No one had expected that the situation would develop to this point.
A delicate, adorable, and frail girl, after pulling out a dagger, could actually display such a decisive and ruthless aura.
Everyone could see that the dagger she pulled out was a real dagger. If she wanted someone to stab her, they would really be stabbed …
She threw caution to the wind.
If you don't let me have an easy time, I won't let you have an easy time either.
If you scolded me for my lowly background, I will discredit you.
After tonight, the good reputation that Cui Yu had painstakingly built up in Mo Lin would come crashing down … Bullying a woman was shameless, but being bullied by a woman was incompetent. How could a shameless and incompetent man still have the face to recite poems and show off his elegance in the crowd?
This was the shrewish side of Li Shinian. A large part of Li Muyang's personality came from Li Shinian's influence.
It could be said that Li Shinian was half a teacher in Li Muyang's life.
At that time, everyone around him praised Li Shinian for her beauty, Li Shinian for her intelligence, and Li Shinian for her excellence. Even Li Muyang himself thought so.
Therefore, Charcoal Li Muyang couldn't help but learn from his younger sister's way of doing things and speaking … Otherwise, how could a pig-like fellow have such a poisonous tongue?
A maidservant's daughter had actually forced a young master of the Cui family into such an embarrassing situation. This was something that no one had thought of before.
Cui Yu's face was pale, and her eyes were bloodshot. The remaining alcohol in her body had long since turned into sweat and was released from the countless pores on her body.
"How dare you …" Cui Yu pointed at Li Shinian's face and shouted angrily, "How dare you …"
"I dare." Li Shinian looked Cui Yu in the eye with a hint of mockery in the corner of her mouth. "You don't dare."
"Lowly maidservant."
As she spoke, Cui Yu suddenly threw a punch at Li Shinian's head.
His fist turned purple, and there was a faint sound of thunder.
This punch was wrapped in Qi. If it hit, Li Shinian's head would probably be smashed into meat paste.
Cui Yu had been repeatedly provoked by Li Shinian, and his heart was filled with killing intent.
He was the eldest young master of the Cui family. If he killed the daughter of a maidservant, no one would be willing to stand up and seek justice for Li Shinian, right?
He was going to make this bitch pay the price and collect some interest for his brother's tragic death.
Swoosh …
Cui Xiaoxin took a step forward and used her body to shield Li Shinian.
Cui Yu was shocked. She never thought that Cui Xiaoxin would do such a stupid thing. She used her precious body to protect the daughter of this maidservant.
He had used up all of his power, and it was too late for him to retract it.
His pupils swelled, and he felt a sense of powerlessness that made it difficult for him to breathe and think.
If the person he killed with this punch was Cui Xiaoxin, the Cui family … The Cui family would no longer tolerate him. He was afraid that he would not have the face to live in this world anymore.
Cui Xiaoxin was the little princess of the Cui family. She was the woman that every man in the Cui family tried their best to protect.
Bang …
Cui Yu's fist hit another fist, and the two fists collided. Two streams of Qi, one white and one purple, collided. Cui Yu's body staggered back, and then he fell on his butt on the grass.
He looked up and saw Song Tao standing next to Cui Xiaoxin with a cold face.
Song Tao stared at Cui Yu and shouted angrily, "Enough."
The audience was silent.
Things had gone through so many twists and turns in just a few seconds.
First, Cui Yu suddenly wanted to kill Li Shinian, then Cui Xiaoxin risked her life to block it, and then Song Tao made a move to repel Cui Yu at the critical moment …
Twists and turns!
"Sister Xiaoxin …" Li Shinian looked at Cui Xiaoxin in shock.
She believed in the friendship between her and Cui Xiaoxin, and also believed that Cui Xiaoxin treated her sincerely. However, she did not expect that at such a critical moment of life and death, Cui Xiaoxin would risk her life to save her …
Cui Xiaoxin looked at Li Shinian with gentle eyes and said softly, "I just did what I should do."
In Jiangnan, the killer suddenly came. The dark-skinned teenager fought back bravely and blocked the knife with his hand, but his palm was pierced by the dagger …
In the Thousand Buddha Temple, in the hot spring. The black hand turned into a crow and attacked. Another swordsman stepped forward. The triangular trident pierced his palm again, and blood flowed …
The first time, the boy was Li Muyang.
The second time, Cui Xiaoxin suspected that it was Li Muyang.
Li Shinian was Li Muyang's sister. What Li Muyang could do for her, she was willing to do for Li Shinian.
"Sister Xiaoxin …" Li Shinian's eyes were red, and he held Cui Xiaoxin's hand tightly.
At a time when he was being belittled by everyone, when he was being attacked and insulted by everyone, a friend stood up to support him and protect him … This was not sending charcoal in the snow, it was simply sending a life when he was about to die.
Cui Xiaoxin reached out to hold Li Shinian's hand and said with determination, "I brought you out, and I have to send you back."
Song Tao's gaze swept around coldly and said, "Let's drop this matter, how about it?"
"Listen to Third Young Master …"
"Yes, it's a gathering, how can it be a fight?"
"Drink, drink. Come, Brother Maple, let's have another drink …"
※ ※ ※
Cui Yu looked around blankly and found that no one was willing to look him in the eye. Everyone went about their own business, talking and laughing with their companions around them. He was originally a popular figure at the banquet, but he was reduced to a trash that everyone despised …
Cui Yu felt a stabbing pain in his heart, and his expression was uncertain.
After sitting for a long time, he suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahaha …"
Cui Yu got up from the ground, his long hair was messy, and his clothes were untidy. He waved his robe sleeves and walked away in the wind and snow.
"White hair is a scholarly honor, the old pine and bamboo trees grow old. Obstructing the return journey. Wanting to play the zither with my thoughts. Few friends, who will listen when the string breaks? Who will listen when the string breaks? Hahaha — — Who will listen when the string breaks? "
The crowd watched Cui Yu's back as he walked away. Song Tao turned to look at Cui Xiaoxin and said with a smile, "Xiaoxin, you also know your seventh brother's temper. He liked to drink, and when he drank too much, he would spout nonsense and indulge in debauchery … Everything he said was drunken talk, and everything he did was drunken behavior. When he sobers up, he forgets everything. Don't take it to heart. "
Cui Xiaoxin nodded. "Thank you for your help, Third Elder Brother. It's just that something like this happened, Shinian is not in a good mood, and I don't have the mood to do anything else — — Why don't I send Shinian sister back first. So that she won't make things difficult for everyone here. "
Cui Xiaoxin's words already had a hint of complaint.
You invited guests over, but were rejected by them, what's the point of staying here? If your friends don't like it, then we might as well go back.
Song Tao said with a wry smile, "Xiaoxin, you should know that I do have good intentions. I just didn't expect there to be such a problem — — If you leave just like that, how are we going to continue with this gathering? If this matter were to spread out, people would say that I, Song Tao, despise the poor and favour the rich, and judge people based on their status — — where would I put my face? Wouldn't our Song Family also become the target of public criticism? "
Cui Xiaoxin sighed inwardly. Song Tao had thrown out the Song family's reputation. If they were to leave now, it would be tantamount to not giving the Song family face.
No matter what, he was the one who saved his life from his elder brother's hands.
Cui Xiaoxin looked at Li Shinian. Li Shinian understood Cui Xiaoxin's difficulties, smiled and said, "Sister Xiaoxin, since we are here, let's stay a little longer? I have admired the Still water dew gathering for a long time, and also want to see the talents of the young masters and sisters present. "
Cui Xiaoxin nodded, turned to Song Tao and said, "Then we'll stay a little longer."
"Please come in." Song Tao said with a big smile. "Once you enter the Still water dew building, you will become a part of our gathering."
Under Song Tao's invitation, Cui Xiaoxin and Li Shinian entered the Still water building together.
The small building was divided into three floors. Some people were drinking, some were playing chess, and some were walking around under the eaves looking for inspiration to recite a masterpiece. There were also people splashing ink on a large table.
A girl in a yellow shirt came over, greeted Cui Xiaoxin very familiarly, and then shifted her line of sight to Li Shinian, saying with a smile, "We all know that Xiaoxin is good at calligraphy, painting and light, I wonder what Miss Shinian can do? It is said that Jiangnan produces talented people, why don't Miss Shinian show us the talent of Jiangnan women. "
Li Shinian shook his head, saying apologetically, "Sister, I'm sorry, I don't know any talent."
The yellow-robed girl did not believe. "Sister Shinian is too modest. I have long heard that you are the fourth moon of Tiandu, talented and beautiful — — how can you not know anything? You're not deliberately hiding it, afraid that once you show it, you will make us sisters feel ashamed? "
"It must be so. The other three bright moons of the capital, which one of them is not a talented person? "
"Sister Shinian, don't be polite with us — — let us also learn and broaden our horizons — —"
"That's right, I heard that your brother Li Muyang — — can casually draw a wisp of spring breeze, spring flowers bloom in autumn."
※ ※ ※
Li Shinian knew that no matter how nice these people's words were, they still secretly wanted to see him make a fool of himself.
If he did not take out something, they most likely would not let him go, and the servant's daughter would be even more humiliated.
Tomorrow, the joke would spread throughout Tiandu: The servant's daughter became an idiot in the Still water dew, and did not have any talent to show.
Li Shinian fished out a folded piece of paper from his bosom, looked at the yellow-robed girl and said, "My family has a coachman who is good at drawing. If sisters don't mind, why don't we admire it together? "
