Li Jiujiang, the young master of Duke Cao's mansion, was instantly stunned by Xia Xiaoxian's aura.
But he never thought that he went to Lushan Academy early in the morning just to look for friends. Unexpectedly, when his brothers clamored to go to Zuixianlou together, he found that he had forgotten to bring the silver.
They all heard that Zuixianlou now has many new kinds of food and fresh ways of playing.
Anyone who has been there has praised the food and entertainment there.
It is truly the only one in the country!
However, they also heard that the expenses there have always been the highest among all the restaurants in Kyoto.
This time, at least 1,200 or 1,800 yuan will definitely not be enough.
Although he is the only son of Duke Cao, he is also a well-known "young master" in Kyoto.
But his parents had been strict with him since he was a child, and he had never bought anything on credit at any teahouse or tavern. When he was hesitating whether to go back to Duke Cao's mansion, he met Xia Linan who had just entered the academy.
When Li Jiujiang saw Xia Linan, who was very fat, some ideas suddenly came to his mind.
The "Scholars, Farmers, Merchants and Artisans" are the lowest class of merchants, and they look like the fat, silly-looking teenagers that everyone wants to bully.
Li Jiujiang made up his mind. He wanted to get some money from this fat guy.
Unexpectedly, he had already given the fat guy face by using the word "borrow".
But this fat guy not only refused to lend the money, but also acted indifferent, which made Li Jiujiang very angry.
Unexpectedly, a wild girl came out from nowhere and said she was the fat guy's sister, and even threatened to beat him up.
How dare a merchant family hit the "young master"?
Is there any justice in this?
Li Jiujiang frowned and glanced at Xia Xiaoxian, who was a head shorter than him.
Well, although this girl looks really pretty and charming when you take a closer look.
But that arrogant look made Li Jiujiang sneer.
Pooh!
Could it be possible that you would be scared off just because of a few words from a little girl?
Then how can I call myself "big brother" in front of the brothers behind me?
Among the group of younger brothers behind him, who among them is not rich or noble?
There are both the grandson of the Duke of Protectorate and the illegitimate son of the Minister of War.
Today, several people came to Lushan Academy together because they had already made an appointment with the young master Li Jiujiang to go to Zuixianlou together to broaden their horizons.
Li Jiujiang didn't want to lose face in front of this group of little brothers.
That's so embarrassing!
"You little bitch! Are you looking for death?" Li Jiujiang's face darkened and he reached out to grab Xia Linan's arm.
It is not convenient to hit a woman first, especially a woman who is much shorter than himself.
Li Jiujiang wanted to vent his anger on Xia Linan!
"I'm afraid it's you who's looking for death!" Xia Linan dodged sideways and barely avoided Li Jiujiang's grab.
His fat body surprisingly seems very flexible.
"I thought he was so powerful, but he couldn't even touch my brother's sleeve!" Xia Xiaoyan beside her clapped her hands and shouted happily.
She was walking slowly just now, and before she could catch her breath, she saw Xia Linan easily avoid Li Jiujiang's grab.
"That's right. You're so old, but you always want to bully others!" Xia Xiaoxian imitated Li Jiujiang and the others, with her arms clasped in front of her chest and one leg lightly tapping the ground.
"But you don't even have the ability to bully others!" Xia Xiaoyan rolled her eyes and laughed.
A great assist indeed.
Li Jiujiang felt his blood boiling at this moment, and he was about to explode with anger at these two stinky girls who came out of nowhere.
He was secretly surprised that Xia Linan was able to dodge his move. A slight blush appeared on his handsome face. At this time, he was almost out of breath because of the pressure from Xia Xiaoxian and her sister.
The brothers behind him couldn't stand it anymore and shouted that they wanted to teach Xia Linan a lesson.
Without waiting for Li Jiujiang's orders, several people surrounded Xia Linan.
"You fat bastard! How dare you tease the young master of Duke Cao's mansion!"
"I'm afraid they're really tired of living. Let's go together and let them know that the young master is not without friends!"
"Since you want to fight, then stop talking nonsense. It's better to attack together so that I don't have to accompany you one by one!" Xia Linan bowed, then turned to Xia Xiaoxian and said, "Eldest sister and second sister, please take your brothers to watch the battle from the side."
"Lin'an, they have more people, so I'll do it!" Xia Xiaoxian was still a little worried that Lin'an would suffer a loss.
Although she knew that Lin'an had learned martial arts from his mother and father for a few days, she had never seen Lin'an actually fight with others.
In particular, Xia Xiaoxian felt even more unsure when she saw Lin'an's body getting fatter and fatter.
These children in Prince Ning's mansion often fight and quarrel with each other in the mansion, but when they go outside, they are of the same opinion.
Anyway, I just want to prevent my family members from being bullied!
"Brother, my fourth brother and I are not afraid. Don't worry, just fight!" said the third brother in a trembling voice.
He didn't know who his temper and personality came from. Even though he was scared to death in his heart, he still had to be tough on the surface.
Xiao Si remained silent.
His eyes looked at this and then at that.
Her expression was cold and aloof, just like Shen Yuyao.
Li Jiujiang never thought about asking his brothers to stand up for him, but he was dumbfounded by the brothers and sisters of this family.
Are they so righteous?
Who are you performing for?
Li Jiujiang has no brothers or sisters. He is the only son of Duke Cao and will be the heir to the title of Duke Cao in the future.
Pooh!
Deliberately coming here to disgust people!
"Stop talking nonsense! Fatty, let me make a bet with you! If you can beat me today, I will be your little brother willingly."
After a pause, Li Jiujiang said arrogantly, "If you can't beat me, then all of you brothers and sisters will be my little brothers from now on!"
He looked at Xia Xiaoxian and her siblings one by one with contempt.
Seeing that they were silent, Li Jiujiang stared at Xia Linan again and said harshly, "Fatty, do you dare to gamble or not?"
Seeing that the siblings remained silent, the onlookers started to make a commotion.
"If you don't dare to gamble, then kneel down and apologize to the young master. Maybe when the young master is in a better mood, he will let you and your siblings go."
"Weren't you so brave just now? Now you don't even dare to gamble."
"Just kneel down and beg for mercy, hahahaha!"
......
Xia Xiaoxian and her siblings blushed, but they didn't dare to speak.
It was because from the day they beat the governor, Shen Yuyao had taught them that if any child was involved in gambling in this life, he would no longer be a child of the Ning Wang Mansion.
This palace's family rules have always been a strong obstacle in front of several people.
What they fear least is fighting!
What they fear most is betting!
Isn’t betting just about gambling?
