Chapter 64: Fury

  Tie Er Niu doesn't like this feeling.

  The girl standing opposite still looked the same, but she was not her usual gentle and approachable self. She would smile as soon as she spoke, asking some very simple yet strange questions that made Si Yatou worry about not being able to answer them, only to find herself answering easily. This Si Yatou was a bit frightening. Maybe she was stunned? Or maybe it was just an illusion? Considering Si Yatou had clearly tried to push Lu Xiang into the water earlier, Tie Ergou quickly decided that she couldn't be stunned.

  What was that? Tie Er Niu didn't even think about it, he just couldn't control the surge of unclear and inexplicable anger that arose within him, as if something he loved dearly had been smashed to pieces. He roughly grabbed Miao Yu's hand, stuffed all the things including the fish basket into her hands, and rushed forward to prepare for a jump to rescue someone.

  At the same time, Lin Jingrong suddenly woke up from her dream-like state and hastily shouted: "Quick! Quick! Save people!" Her expression finally revealed a hint of panic and fear, and she began to search around for something like branches.

  At that moment when Tieu Ngao jumped into the water, he thought with relief that Fourth Sister must have been frightened out of her wits. This was what they meant by "having a thief's heart but not a thief's courage".

  The water wasn't very deep, and the current wasn't rushing, Tie Er Niu was very familiar with the water, and it was easy to rescue people. He quickly grabbed Lu Xian from behind and pushed him to Lin Jian Rong's side of the shore - The terrain here is different from where they were fishing earlier, more like a deep ditch, from the water surface to the shore, Miao Ya's side had at least two and a half feet deep, Lin Jian Rong's side was slightly shallower, but still about two feet deep. Therefore, desperately pulling Lu Xian ashore became Lin Jian Rong's task.

  Thanks to the timely rescue, Lu Xuan did not faint or anything, but he was clearly frightened, his face pale, lips blue, and his wet hair stuck to his cheeks, looking very disheveled. He held onto the muddy shore with one hand and tightly grasped Lin Jianrong's hand with the other, panting heavily, turning back to look at Tie Erniu who had gone to rescue Changshou. When he saw Tie Erniu grab hold of Changshou and carry him towards them, Lu Xuan finally turned around and quietly looked at Lin Jianrong, his hand holding hers gradually tightening.

  For a moment, Lin Jinyong thought that Lu Xuan wanted to pull her into the river. He was so clever and could guess that she had deliberately calculated him by thinking about the cause and effect. But what's the point? He didn't have any evidence, and she had even repeatedly reminded him before. Changshou had suffered a loss, but he wasn't wronged in the slightest, yet she still felt it wasn't enough!

  Lin Jianrong calmly met Lu Xian's gaze and calmly said: "Second brother, use some force, otherwise I won't be able to pull you over."

  Lu Xian's eyelashes slowly drooped, silently cooperating with Lin Jianrong's movements, and awkwardly crawled to the shore. Lin Jianrong didn't ask him if he was okay or not, directly letting go of his hand to help Tie Er Niu pull Lao Shou up.

  Lu Xuan silently watched Lin Jianrong's back, which was still small and slender despite his growth spurt. He pursed his lips, his expression ambiguous. Lin Jianrong, although busy, could also feel the two uncomfortable gazes behind him.

  Miao Ya came around from another place, saw the situation and sighed: "It's okay, it's okay......" Her words stopped abruptly, she looked at Lin Jianrong with a expressionless face, then looked at Lu Xian who was silent, and fearfully shrunk to Lin Jianrong's side. After realizing, I thought that probably all of them would be punished?

  Cháng shòu de shuǐ guàn dé bǐ lù jiān duō, nián líng gèng xiǎo, dǎn zǐ yě gèng xiǎo, shàng le àn jiù yǒu xiē hún hún nòng rén shì bù xǐng de, yóu tiě èr niú nòng chū hǎo jǐ kǒu sào chòu de zāng shuǐ lái cái suàn shì kū chū shēng lái: "shǎo yé, shǎo yé, wǒ zhè bù shì zài huáng quán xià ba? suàn mìng xiān shī bù shuō wǒ yào huó dào qī shí suì de me? zěn me jiù sǐ la! kě lián nín hái méi zhòng zhuàng yuán ne!"

  Miao Ya suddenly forgot her worries and burst out laughing: "Were you dazed by the water? What nonsense are you talking about?"

  Changshou finally came to his senses, and he crawled over to Lu Xuan as fast as he could. He tightly hugged Lu Xuan's leg and tearfully exclaimed: "Young Master, Young Master, you're still alive! That's great! I was so scared... Are you okay?" As he spoke, he frantically felt all over Lu Xuan's body.

  Lu Dian was both annoyed and amused, shouting: "Stop! I'm fine!"

  "This is a treasure!" Miao Ya couldn't help but burst out laughing, Tie Er Niu also had a smile on his lips, Lin Jin Rong didn't laugh, he just looked down at the emerald green water, motionless. Now she only wanted to leave this place and not see that person again.

  Changshou cried enough, turned around and pointed at Lin Jiner: "Fourth sister, joking also needs a limit, it's all your fault, consider yourself lucky, otherwise I'll make you regret it..."

  "What's wrong with me?!" Lin Jiner's emotions had reached a boiling point, and he glared at them with an extremely fierce gaze: "You want to take my life as compensation?! It was I who dragged you all here to go sightseeing! It was I who didn't tell you that the bridge wasn't safe to cross, but still dragged you across it! It was I who didn't warn you that the bridge couldn't hold two people, but still pulled both of you onto the bridge together! And it was I who pushed you into the river and refused to save you! Tie Er Niu, do you have nothing better to do?! Who told you to pull them up?! Let's go! Are you waiting for someone to thank you?!" After finishing his tirade, he turned around and walked away, with Miao Ya hastily following behind.

  "You, you, you... Young Master, Fourth Miss she, she..." Lao Shou's mind was still a bit muddled and didn't know how to respond to Lin Jian Rong's words, but he felt that he had suffered a great loss. If he didn't severely retaliate, it would be unforgivable towards the Young Master and himself. "Don't say anymore. It was I who dragged Fourth Sister here to play, and it was also my own idea to cross the bridge. Even if you didn't listen to advice, we two ended up falling into the river together." Lu Jian Zhi stopped Lao Shou, stood up and bowed deeply towards Tie Er Niu: "Second Cow Brother, thank you for saving us."

  Tie Er Niu had not reminded him that the bridge was problematic earlier, and he was already guilty of being a thief. At this moment, he received Tie Er Niu's courtesy, his face suddenly flushed with blood, and he repeatedly waved his hand, saying: "I, that, I, originally should be, Young Master Tie doesn't need to be polite." Then he touched his head and said: "After all, it's spring, it's cool and cold, hurry up and change your clothes, or you'll get sick."

  Changshou muttered: "Where are we going? Our luggage is all at Mr. Zhu's house, can't we just go back like this? It's several miles away, and walking back will surely make us catch a cold! I don't care, but my young master has to take the imperial examination, he can't afford to be delayed."

  Mr. Zhu's house is indeed much farther than our own, but without the fourth young lady's instructions, he didn't dare to take charge. Tie Er Niu rubbed his head, unsure of what to do, and saw Miao Ya return again, saying: "Second brother, the young lady wants you to find a shortcut to lead Master Biao back to the Zhu family first, then look for Madame, and ask Old Man Shui to prepare medicine."

  Tie Er Niu saw that Lu Xian did not express any opposition and felt a little relieved. He asked Miao Yu: "What about you guys?"

  Miao Ya said uncomfortably: "We still need to go back to Qingliang Temple first, we've been out for so long, Lychee sister and the others must be worried."

  Tie Er Niu led the way in front, and Changshou squeezed his eyebrows and eyes, whispering to Lu Xian: "Young master, when Auntie asks later, we'll say..."

  Lu Xian coldly said: "You forgot, I promised not to say."

  Changshou said with a sullen face, "We just said not to reveal the fourth young lady sneaking out to play in the river, and didn't say that she almost got you killed."

  Lin Jinyong said earlier that today's events are not to be spoken of, and if they were, wouldn't it just lead to her being dragged out for sneaking out to play? Hadn't she already planned to humiliate him? Lu Xian's mood was bad: "Don't speak nonsense, later I'll tell you what to do."

  "Oh." Changshou reluctantly shut his mouth tight.

  Tie Er Niu listened attentively with his ears perked up, and when he heard Lu Xian say that he wouldn't tell on him, he finally felt at ease. He then turned to ask Lu Xian with a thick face: "Young Master, later when I meet my wife, what should I say?"

  Lu Jianping calmly said, "Let's just say I was traveling and playing in the mountains, and when I got to this bridge, it collapsed, and I accidentally fell into the river. You happened to meet me and saved us both." His gaze fell on Tie Er Niu's waist, where a fishing net and fish basket were hanging, thinking that this explanation should be foolproof.

  He was so calm and composed, teaching himself how to speak and respond. Tie Er Niu felt even more guilty, touching his ear and saying: "Young Master, don't blame my sister-in-law. She has a good heart, she just wanted to play a joke on you, but she's still young and can't grasp the weight of her words. She knows that I and Miao Wa will take care of it, there won't be any big trouble..."

  Lu Xuan hadn't spoken yet, when Changshou suddenly burst out: "She's kind-hearted? Which eye of yours saw that she's kind-hearted? There's no one more vicious than her. Won't there be any harm? Didn't you see that rotten wood almost smashed onto my young master? Can she afford to compensate if it was damaged? My young master is precious..."

  Tie Er Niu was both embarrassed and furious, embarrassed because an accident had indeed occurred, but furious because Lin Jin Rong was being vicious. Lin Jin Rong's heart was actually very kind and would never make things difficult for others. So he also glared at Chang Shou with anger: "Which eye of yours saw that my sister has a bad heart? My sister clearly told you not to run onto the bridge, but you didn't listen! It was you who harmed your own young master, and now you're pushing the blame onto my sister. Where is there such a cheap thing?"

  "What's wrong with me?" Changshou rolled up his sleeves and was about to push Tie Ercow: "Say that again!"

  Lu Jin furrowed his brow and said: "Chang Shou, shut up! Withdraw!"

  Changshou reluctantly stopped, and Tie Er Niu naturally wouldn't bother him again. The three of them walked with gloomy faces and muffled voices, their wet clothes and shoes trembling in the cold wind. Tie Er Niu was someone who didn't like to suffer losses, so he deliberately asked Lu Xuan: "Young Master, isn't it uncomfortable walking in wet clothes and shoes?"

  Changshou was about to get angry, but Lu Jian calmly replied, "Yes. It's very cold and uncomfortable."

  Halfway through, I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the front. Immediately afterwards, a young man appeared at the end of the path, hurrying along and looking around in all directions.

  Tie Er Niu saw the approaching figure and excitedly shouted: "Third Young Master, we're over here!"

  That person hurried over and saw the three of them in a sorry state without showing any surprise, only saying: "Fourth sister asked me to come pick you up."
