"The husband of the Minister of Rites' family? He must know etiquette very well."
He Tiantian deliberately raised her voice so that everyone in the restaurant lobby could hear her.
As if she was seeing an idol, she looked at Yang Sanlang with awe in her eyes, and then said, "I have long heard that the Yang family is a wealthy family."
"Young Minister Yang is also the Minister of Rites. All the sons and daughters in the family understand the rules and respect etiquette!"
"When I saw him today, he certainly lived up to his reputation."
"Look at this brother, he has a majestic appearance and extraordinary bearing..."
He Tiantian acted like an ignorant country girl. When she suddenly saw the young master of a noble family, she felt flattered and ashamed.
Anyway, her compliment made Yang Sanlang very proud.
"Don't take it seriously, I'm just a little better than those vulgar farm slaves!"
As expected, Yang Sanlang hated He Xi very much, or in other words, his temper was indeed arrogant and arrogant.
He Xi's mother-in-law "He Tianshi" praised him so much. Instead of restraining herself, he continued to criticize Sang and Huai, saying that the entire He family was a low-class person.
"Tian Shenu", even if you don't understand its true meaning, just by looking at the word "slave" in its name, you can guess that this is definitely a very humiliating word.
The He family was born into poor peasants, and He Tiantian had just said personally that during the busy farming season, she, a woman, had to work in the fields with the men.
Yang Sanlang deliberately mentioned the word "field slave" in front of "He Tianshi". This is no longer a simple connotation.
It's like pointing at the monk and scolding the bald donkey.
Of course, if He Tiantian hadn't been so complimentary just now, it would seem that he wouldn't have heard Yang Sanlang's criticism at all.
Yang Sanlang might not be so presumptuous.
He is indeed arrogant, but he also has brains.
It's nothing to criticize mulberry trees and scold huai trees, to say a few sentences with vague connotations, to play a side game, or to play a word game.
Because in this case, even if he is being criticized, he can pretend to be surprised and say: "I am talking about others, not you!"
He would also look at the other person with a look like "there are people who pick up money, but there are idiots who pick up money and scold them", creating a second humiliation.
But if you really point at someone's nose and open and close your mouth to insult someone, then that's a bit too much.
First, it is easy to fall into the trap of others.
Secondly, no matter what, "He Tianshi" is the "elder".
Although the woman in front of her looks young, her son has already entered the court as an official. Not to mention, He Tian has a status that is almost a immunity gold medal - a chaste woman!
It is true that Yang Sanlang and He Xi have a competitive relationship in the officialdom, but their political opponents do not involve their families, not to mention that Yang Sanlang and He Xi have not yet broken up.
And Yang Sanlang, as the son of the Yang family, publicly humiliated He Xi's mother, who had a very good reputation... Tsk, tsk, if you look at such a thing, the people would shake their heads after seeing it. Even if they were brought in front of the saint, the Yang family would be at fault!
In fact, when Yang Sanlang proudly said the three words "field slave" to He Tiantian again, he felt a little regretful in his heart.
But soon, he comforted himself, so what if he humiliated He Tianshi face to face?
An ignorant village woman like her already has a low self-esteem. If someone exposes her wrongdoing in public, she will only feel ashamed of herself instead of causing trouble.
If a quarrel really breaks out, Yang Sanlang will certainly be scolded as arrogant, but the Hetian family will not be able to do anything good.
The He family was originally a mess, but the Yang family was a wealthy family.
That is to say, the aristocratic families of the Great Xia Dynasty were somewhat in decline, and poor families were rising one after another.
If it were left to the previous dynasty, huh, a farm slave like He Xi would not be qualified to enter the court at all.
You actually have the guts to compete with the Yang family for official positions?
Bah, the world is really in chaos, all the noble rules have been trampled on!
Yang Sanlang desperately thought like this. There was still a trace of uneasiness in his heart, but it disappeared at this moment.
He had made a bet that the Hetian family would not dare to make it public, let alone provoke the aristocratic family.
He Tiantian: ...Dear, I'm sorry, you lost the bet!
The way He Tiantian was trying to please someone just now was like the contradictory look of envy, adoration and self-denial that a person of lowly origin would feel when he suddenly sees a "noble person".
The purpose is to make Yang Sanlang get carried away.
At this moment, Yang Sanlang really said something about "field slave" to her wantonly, and He Tiantian immediately caught the handle.
Her expression changed, and she suddenly asked: "Mr. Yang, since you are a well-educated and sensible person, and I am a stranger to you, why are you speaking harshly to me?"
"I, He Mentian, was widowed at the age of twenty-three. I endured hardships for sixteen years and raised three children by myself. I also trained my eldest son to become the youngest concubine in the Great Xia Dynasty."
"I dare not boast of my merits, but I am not a lowly person either."
"Mr. Yang, I only ask you. There is no grievance or enmity, and the old lady thinks she has not offended you. Why do you insult me?"
He Tiantian asked her questions in an upright and awe-inspiring manner.
However, the original owner has the temperament of an old white flower, and her voice is also kind of delicate and timid.
The effect of these words is naturally pitiful, sad and miserable.
The original owner's well-developed lacrimal glands also played an important role at this moment.
He Tiantian didn't even use her acting skills, but her tear ducts started working on their own.
Two lines of clear tears fell silently, and the beautiful peach blossom eyes were filled with tears, and they couldn't shed them, and they stopped crying even if they wanted to.
She seemed to be holding back tears, but she felt so wronged, so sad and angry that she couldn't control it at all.
When a beauty sheds tears, she is still such a delicate and timid beauty, which makes people feel sad and distressed just by looking at her.
Coupled with the original owner's white lotus temperament that radiates from the bones, all the people who eat melons have a feeling of being weak but strong, of humble origin but noble conduct.
On the other hand, Yang Sanlang was wearing a gorgeous dress embroidered with gold thread, a priceless jade pendant hung around his waist, and a folding fan in his hand, which was probably the work of a famous artist.
The clothes he wears make him look like a husband from a wealthy family.
And his arrogance, which is unique to aristocratic families, makes people from ordinary or poor families very repelled.
The Great Xia Dynasty had the imperial examination, and ordinary people's superstition and respect for aristocratic families were far lower than those in the previous dynasty.
Although I still have some admiration in my heart, I no longer follow the aristocratic family’s lead.
Especially those from a poor family, if they have the opportunity to move to a wealthy family, they will be very happy to support them!
At this moment, the person facing the Yang family from the aristocratic family was not a child from a poor family, but an even more pitiful woman. Everyone almost didn't need to ask why, and they all stood on He Tiantian's side.
Of course, if the cause and effect were understood, everyone would despise Yang Sanlang even more.
You, a noble family member, despise ordinary people at the bottom, but why do you want to humiliate even a modest woman?!
Yang Sanlang didn't realize that he seemed to have offended the public. He was completely shocked by He Tiantian's face-changing skill——
One moment, she was a humble village woman who admired a noble family. How come she, the next moment, she made a just and awe-inspiring accusation?!
"Me, when did I insult you?"
When Yang Sanlang said this, he was not pretending to be confused, but in his subconscious mind, he did not think that the word "tianshenu" was a curse word.
This is a fact, okay?!
"I am an ignorant old woman and I don't understand those crude words. But I have brains. The word 'slave' in 'tianshenu' must be a curse word!"
He Tiantian deliberately pretended to be "unreasonably disturbing", frowned, and argued: "I am a good citizen, how can I become a lowly slave in your mouth, Yang Sanlang?"
Yang Sanlang: ...swearing words, these are swearing words, of course you have to use some humiliating words.
For example, animals, and some organs.
It must be something that sounds ugly, makes people feel uncomfortable, or uses it.
Calling people stupid and stupid like pigs does not mean that they really treat people as pigs.
Yang Sanlang really wanted to grab He Tianshi by the collar, shake her hard, and then tell her that this was just a rhetorical device.
But, he can't!
Because once he shouted out these words in his heart, he would clearly tell everyone that he had insulted He Xi's mother, a frail but tough chaste martyr.
In addition, Yang Sanlang did not dare to take action easily.
Princess Ankang was still standing nearby, and a dozen of the princess's personal guards surrounded the door of the restaurant tightly.
Yang Sanlang could use words to "connotate" the He Tian family, but he could not openly use violence in front of the princess.
Otherwise, the evidence of his guilt is conclusive and there is no defense for him!
"I-I didn't!"
Yang Sanlang's grievance was obviously a curse word that everyone knew well, but it was interpreted by "He Tianshi" like this, and Yang Sanlang didn't know how to defend it.
"Why didn't you? You called me a 'slave'! I really heard it!"
He Tiantian looks like a mischievous shrew.
However, the original owner's old-fashioned temperament is too awesome.
In the eyes of everyone, she was just a simple village woman who didn't understand the twists and turns outside. She felt humiliated and couldn't bear it, so--
"Ding! Yang Sanlang's hatred value is 10!"
Oh ho, finally reaching the dandy's hatred value, He Tiantian felt very satisfied.
Victory is in sight, but she still needs to keep up her efforts.
He Tiantian wiped the raging tears with a handkerchief, and sighed to herself: If you want to be an old woman, you must have innate conditions.
Not to mention anything else, the well-developed lacrimal glands gave the original owner a huge advantage.
"As an old woman from the country, I don't deserve to be called a 'slave'. I am a widow, have I not received enough looks and insults in the past ten years?"
"But, I can't bring trouble to my son. My son didn't get enlightened until he was six years old. He studied hard no matter whether it was cold or hot. He was admitted as a scholar at the age of thirteen, and he was selected by the saint to be the courtier at the age of sixteen!"
"My son has been an official in the court for five years. He has been conscientious, diligent and frugal, and has never slacked off for a day. His reputation is also very good. I, I am so humiliated today, how can my son gain a foothold in the court?"
He Tiantian was crying and talking at the same time. It was difficult for her to burst into tears, but she could still speak clearly, allowing everyone present to hear the voice of a loving mother who was willing to sacrifice everything for her son.
Princess Ankang: ...It’s quite magical.
Again, if the actress is trying to show off her acting skills to me, then I must be dumb and unable to express my suffering.
And seeing her mother-in-law fighting with some people that she couldn't stand, and putting her opponents in a dilemma, and feeling uncomfortable in every possible way, Ankang had only one feeling - feeling good!
Yang Shilang is not only He Xi's rival, he has also often impeached Guo's consort and Duke Wei in recent years.
Why do you support your troops and respect yourself, and why don’t you listen to your orders...
Yang Shilang and several censors and civil servants were like a bunch of annoying flies.
Although it won't cause any harm to the Guo family, it buzzes all day long, which is really disgusting.
There are also several men of the Yang family who despise the poor family and attack nobles and generals because of their so-called family background.
The Guo brothers, who were of the same generation as Yang Sanlang, were often ridiculed by several men of the Yang family.
What's vulgar, what's insulting to politeness, what's murderous...
Bullshit!
Any housewife in Ankang knows that on the battlefield, one must be cruel to the enemy, and killing the enemy and killing are two different things.
My father and brothers were clearly protecting the family and the country, but in the words of those rotten literati, they actually became "evil stars"!
Huh, we should really send all those talkative things to the border areas and let them be cleaned and harvested by the barbarians over and over again to see if they can still say "the land of etiquette" to a group of cruel enemies.
Words like "the benevolent are invincible"!
But... Ankang has a weak temperament. In this case, she only dares to have fun in her heart.
In addition to courage, there are also objective social factors——
The Great Xia Dynasty has been at peace for a long time, and there has long been a trend of emphasizing literature and suppressing military power. Those scholars are eloquent, as if they really make sense.
At least at Ankang's level, she couldn't refute those people and help Guo Jiajun clear his name!
Since you can't do it, don't provoke it easily, otherwise it will bring trouble to the Guo family.
Ankang can only endure it.
At this moment, Ankang suddenly saw the evil mother-in-law showing her power towards Yang Sanlang, and Ankang felt relaxed both physically and mentally!
right!
This is how we should deal with these so-called aristocratic families who only talk empty talk!
Princess Ankang watched her mother-in-law act happily.
Um, why is it called "acting"?
Since Ankang had been He Tian's daughter-in-law for five years, he naturally knew the true face of this mother-in-law.
My mother-in-law is a selfish and cold person, and she always cares about herself the most.
Maybe besides herself, the mother-in-law will love her son a little bit, but it is limited.
At least, my mother-in-law would never kill herself for her son!
However, knowing everything is clear, Ankang cannot undermine her mother-in-law outside.
Especially since the mother-in-law is tormenting the Yang family, she should help her both emotionally and rationally.
"Mother!"
Ankang tried hard to keep up with her mother-in-law's acting skills, shouted in grief and anger, and tried to pull her mother-in-law's arm.
It was her first time acting, so she tried too hard.
Fortunately, everyone's attention was on the "protagonist" He Tiantian, and they didn't pay too much attention to her.
And her jerky acting skills made people feel that Ankang, the daughter-in-law, seemed to be frightened by the changes in front of her, and her speech and behavior were a little abnormal for a while.
"Ankang, don't stop me, let me die, let me, a 'slave', die!"
"I can't bring trouble to my son. I can't let my most promising son, who holds the hope of the entire clan, be laughed at because of me!"
"Let me die, let me die!"
He Tiantian was tired of life, and her sad voice echoed throughout the restaurant.
"Ding! Yang Sanlang's hatred value is 30!"
He Tiantian was very satisfied. She suddenly stopped shouting, rolled her eyes, and fainted.
"Mother~~~"
Ankang was brought into the drama by her mother-in-law, and she even cried. She still did not forget the culprit Yang Sanlang: "Yang Sanlang, don't leave. Even if this matter comes before a saint, I will ask my mother for it."
