"Liu Wen! Don't curse so harshly! Ah Shu is gentle and generous, and she won't bother with you about what happened before. If you say something like this again, don't blame me for being merciless and kicking you off the boat!" Zheng Jiaren said sternly, as if she would attack her if she said another word.
"Zheng Jiaren! No wonder you can't get married at such an old age, you're like a tigress! I can say whatever I want, she is just indecent! She seduced Prince Han! And she won't let me say anything?" Liu Wen was sure that Qiao Si would stand on her side, and she didn't take Zheng Jiaren's threats to heart at all.
"What do you mean? You actually called me a tigress? I think you are the one! You are a brainless mad dog who will bite anyone you catch!" Zheng Jiaren felt that her sore spot was touched, and she pointed at her and scolded her. She seemed to feel that scolding like this was not enough to vent her anger, so she rolled up her sleeves and slapped her hard.
There was a crisp "slap" sound from the slap.
Zhang You felt pain when she heard it, not to mention the red and swollen slap marks that instantly appeared on Liu Wen's face.
Liu Wen was so furious after being hit by the palm strike that the maid behind her followed suit and grabbed Zheng Jiaren's clothes and hair to hit her. Qiao Si growled, "Stop!"
But the two of them were already fighting fiercely. Yao Yushu knew that Zheng Jiaren was venting her anger on him, so she hurried to separate them and, at the same time, blocked Liu Wen from pulling Zheng Jiaren's hand.
Seeing these young ladies and maids fighting, Qiao Si couldn't stand it anymore and ordered Zhang You and the others to break up the fight. Zhang You naturally supported Zheng Jiaren, after all, Liu Wen's words were too harsh. So she took the opportunity and accidentally hit Liu Wen a few more times.
The fight was finally stopped when Zhang You and the other three grabbed one of them each.
Listening to the sounds coming from the front hall, those young men from noble families should have already boarded their ship. It would be better to take Yao Yushu to change clothes as soon as possible. Qiao Si's face turned cold, and his voice was filled with irresistible majesty. "Stop fighting, they are all noble ladies, what are you doing?"
Liu Wen and Zheng Jiaren were intimidated by Qiao Si's aura and finally calmed down.
Qiao Si didn't look at them again. She walked over to Yao Yushu and frowned slightly. Yao Yushu, usually calm and composed, now had her hair all messed up from trying to stop the fight. She glanced at Zheng Jiaren and Liu Wen. They were even more aggressive. Not only were their clothes and hair messy, but their faces were covered in bruises. "Quiet down! What a scene!" she said, and she was about to lead Yao Yushu away.
At this moment, Zhang You and the others had already released their restraining hands and were about to leave with Qiao Si. Zheng Jiaren, fearing Qiao Si would bully Yao Yushu, hurried to follow, holding Yao Yushu's arm. Liu Wen looked at Yao Yushu, the culprit of all this, and felt a pang of anger in her heart. "Wait!" she said, and walked towards Yao Yushu.
"Why, you want to apologize?" Zheng Jiaren let go of Yao Yushu's hand, took a step forward, crossed her arms, and looked down on her. She looked at Liu Wen's embarrassed look and thought she wanted to apologize.
Liu Wen smiled. "Yes." Her eyes suddenly changed, a fierce expression on her face. She raised her hand and quickly pushed Yao Yushu. They were now on the walkway beside the boat, separated from the lake by a waist-high railing. Liu Wen pushed Yao Yushu directly off the boat.
When people are in a panic, they always like to grab something. For example, when they fall, they will hold on to the ground tightly, or when they fall into the water, they will grab the people around them.
In a panic, Yao Yusu tried to grab Liu Wen who pushed her, but she grabbed Qiao Si who was next to her. Qiao Si grabbed Liu Wen's sleeve, and Liu Wen staggered and fell down with Zheng Jiaren.
Zhang You and the others wanted to reach out, but there were too many people. Before they could react, Qiao Si had already fallen into the water.
"Princess!"
"Miss!"
Accompanied by the sounds of four people falling into the water, they all called out for their masters.
The noise from their side soon attracted the group of people in the front hall.
Zhang You lay on the fence, watching Qiao Si unable to float and being pulled by Liu Wen next to him, feeling anxious.
Why can't I swim?
She was extremely anxious and was about to ask Dongmei and the others to rescue her, but Li Guanghan, who had hurried over, had already jumped down first.
After he was the first one, several more jumped down.
"Hurry, hurry, get the rope! Get the rope!" Zhang You shouted hurriedly. Fortunately, there were ropes every two meters on the hull. They quickly untied the ropes and threw them down, shouting for them to tie them on their hands so that they could pull them up.
Jingzhu watched the men jump down and frowned. "Chunhua, go get four cloaks! Quick!" She hurriedly ordered Chunhua, her voice filled with urgency. Chunhua immediately understood her concerns and ran to get the cloaks.
In summer, women's clothes are light and thin. If they fall into the water, their clothes will get wet and stick to their bodies. Now there are so many men on this boat. How can this happen? Zhang You figured out the trick and now looking at the man who jumped into the water to save others, he became even more worried.
Wei Nian also jumped down just now.
But please don’t let him save Qiao Si!
Seeing Li Guanghan swimming straight towards Yao Yushu, Qiao Si, who couldn't swim, was choking on the water. Yao Yushu, who seemed to be able to swim, pulled Qiao Si to prevent her from sinking. Zheng Jiaren was pulled into the water by Liu Wen and angrily hit and cursed Liu Wen's name. Liu Wen saw that Yao Yushu could swim and tried to float over, but Yao Yushu dodged her.
Li Guanghan approached Yao Yushu, not knowing what they had said. Li Guanghan took Qiao Si and led her closer to the ropes. Yao Yushu turned back to save Zheng Jiaren, leaving Liu Wen struggling for help.
Wei Nian swam closer only to discover that Qiao Si had already been rescued by Li Guanghan. He glanced at the others, all women, and not wanting to be contaminated, he temporarily slowed down his swimming. Following him, several servants and guards jumped over him, rushing to rescue the others. Among them was a fair-skinned scholar.
Seeing that Li Guanghan was about to tie the rope to Qiao Si, Zhang You was so anxious that he kept pounding the railing: Wouldn't Qiao Si be embarrassed if he got out of the water?
Chunhua arrived just in time. Zhang You took the cloak, tied it to the rope, and threw it down. She shouted, "Princess! Cloak!" Qiao Si choked on the water, but was still conscious. After hearing this, she took the cloak and wrapped it around herself. Li Guanghan helped her tie the rope firmly around her waist. Zhang You and the others immediately pulled her up.
After Li Guanghan tied the rope to Qiao Si, he turned back to rescue Yao Yusu. Yao Yusu was holding Zheng Jiaren tightly and was unwilling to go with him. At this time, the fair-skinned scholar grabbed Zheng Jiaren's hand for help.
He had just tried to save another woman, but couldn't swim faster than the servants. The woman was rescued by them. He didn't know the identities of these women, and seeing that they were unwilling to come over, he swam over to help. He just saw someone fall into the water below, and eager to save them, he jumped in to save them, without considering so much else.
