A farmer's daughter travels through time, farming and dividing the family to fight for the best
Chapter 100 Falling into the water
"Why does he want to kidnap Hua Wen? Normally, the two of them have no contact in the academy. Hua Wen would not offend him. His father is the magistrate of our Jiunu County and he is omnipotent. You must not go there rashly." Lin Changxiu advised. He thought Li Xiaoxiao didn't know his identity and he would suffer if he went there.
"Thank you, Dean Lin, for reminding me. I have some old grudges against him. No matter who he is, even if he is the current Crown Prince, I am not afraid of him. If he dares to bully my family, I will make him pay the price." Li Xiaoxiao was really not afraid of him. If he was afraid of him, he would not have let him lie on the same bed with Liu.
She found that some people are born to be humble. Since ancient times, the soft ones are afraid of the hard ones, the hard ones are afraid of the stupid ones, and the stupid ones are afraid of those who are not afraid of death. For example, Zhang Wenbin is such a person.
"But you want me to go with you." Lin Changxiu was obviously still worried. After all, he was Zhang Wenbin's teacher. If something really happened, he might give him some face for the sake of his teacher.
"No need, the person he wants to see is me, I can go alone." Li Xiaoxiao didn't want him to be implicated.
"Okay, you guys just be careful and come to me if anything happens. After all, Huawen disappeared from my academy, and I can't just sit there and do nothing." Lin Changxiu couldn't help but admire Li Xiaoxiao's courage. He was young but had such courage. When he was the same age as Li Xiaoxiao, he was still a nerd who only knew how to read.
After bidding farewell to Lin Changxiu, Li Xiaoxiao and Si Chengxu soon arrived at the lakeside pavilion.
Huju Xiaoting is a small lake five miles east of the county seat. The lake is not big, covering an area of about three or four acres. Lotus roots are planted in the lake all year round. At this time of the year, the lotus is in full bloom, and the conical flower buds, blooming lotus flowers, and large jade-colored leaves are scattered all over the lake.
The lotus roots were planted by nearby villagers. Over time, they attracted a group of wealthy young men and virtuous men to come and admire them. At first, they would row boats on the lake. Later, many rich young ladies came here to admire the lake, but the young ladies were all too delicate and frail to get on the boats.
So someone suggested that we should jointly build a small pavilion for everyone to enjoy. The proposal was quickly agreed by everyone, and after collecting enough money, we started to build the pavilion. It has been three years now, and people still come to visit from time to time, especially in recent times when the lotus flowers have bloomed. It is really pleasant to sit in the pavilion and enjoy the beautiful scenery while inviting three or five good friends to visit.
When Li Xiaoxiao arrived, Zhang Wenbin was almost impatient and kept looking into the distance. It felt like a long time had passed before Li Xiaoxiao finally arrived, followed by Si Chengxu.
"Zhang Wenbin, why did you go to so much trouble to call me here?" Li Xiaoxiao was lazy and natural. She found a stone bench and sat down. She picked up the exquisite pastries on the table and took a bite. Hmm, it tasted good.
Si Chengxu had a strong and handsome face, with deep black eyes. He didn't even look at Zhang Wenbin, but looked at the lotus flowers in the distance.
As soon as he entered the pavilion, Zhang Wenbin immediately felt a sense of oppression due to his height. He was about 1.6 meters tall, while Si Chengxu was about 1.8 meters tall.
If he wanted to see his face, he had to look up at him. This realization made Zhang Wenbin unconsciously take two steps back to ease the psychological gap.
Also, it was clearly Li Xiaoxiao who came to beg him, so why was it different from what he imagined? Shouldn't she have begged him to release Li Huawen?
After eating a piece of cake and pouring himself a cup of tea to rinse his mouth, Li Xiaoxiao looked up at Zhang Wenbin, who had a dazed expression. "Zhang Wenbin, I don't want to waste time talking to you. Hand over my brother and apologize to him. I won't pursue what happened today."
Zhang Wenbin chuckled when he heard this, not knowing whether to be angry or laugh: "Li Xiaoxiao, your brother is in my hands. With your bossy attitude, do you think I can let him go and even apologize to this little kid? What are you daydreaming about?"
"I don't know whether you did this by yourself or you were used as a gun by someone, but there is one thing I can tell you clearly, if what you do today doesn't get the result I want, you will regret it." Li Xiaoxiao's tone was calm and warning.
"This young master doesn't know how to write the word regret. Now your brother is in my hand. It's as easy as crushing an ant. You want me to let him go with just a few words. Do you think it's possible?" Zhang Wenbin knew that Li Xiaoxiao was a powerless village girl who just wanted to scare him. He would not be fooled. Li Huawen was a smart boy. He had spent a lot of effort to get him. How could he let him go easily? He still had to rely on him to control Li Xiaoxiao.
"Really? Zhang Wenbin, you rely on your father being the county magistrate to act arrogantly and domineeringly. Most people are afraid of you. But the person you met today is me, and I will not indulge you. On the contrary, I will..." Li Xiaoxiao said as she walked towards Zhang Wenbin leisurely, her eyes sparkling.
She quickly came right in front of Zhang Wenbin, and before Zhang Wenbin could understand what she meant, Li Xiaoxiao quickly reached out, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up.
Zhang Wenbin is short and thin. On the other hand, Li Xiaoxiao has been eating well and sleeping well since she traveled through time. Her physical fitness has improved a lot compared to before, so it is not difficult for her to lift Zhang Wenbin.
"I'll throw you into the lake to sober you up." After saying this, before Zhang Wenbin could react, in front of his stunned and unbelieving eyes, he was thrown into the lake.
With a splash, the sound of a heavy object falling into the water was heard, and the bright and dazzling lotus flowers that were originally in full bloom had their branches broken innocently in an instant. The lotus leaves also became messy due to Zhang Wenbin's chaotic struggle.
"Save me, I can't...swim." The sudden change frightened Zhang Wenbin, and he shouted for help in the water.
Li Xiaoxiao looked at Zhang Wenbin leisurely, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said to him in a gentle voice that he didn't take it seriously and he had to force her to use her special trick.
"Why, don't you like lotus? I'll let you have a good look at them."
"Save me, save me! I don't dare anymore, I'll let Li Huawen go." Zhang Wenbin in the lake already felt a little exhausted, and said weakly. Although it was summer, lotus flowers and lotus leaves covered the entire lake, and the sunlight could not reach the water surface, the water in the lake was still very icy.
While struggling, he drank several big mouthfuls of lake water, and the feeling of being on the verge of death gradually came to Zhang Wenbin's mind.
The sound coming from this side alarmed Zhang Wenbin and his followers who were waiting in the distance, as well as several villagers nearby.
He quickly arrived at the pavilion and wanted to go down to save people, but was blocked by Li Xiaoxiao. Li Xiaoxiao looked up at Si Chengxu: "Cousin, thank you for stopping them." Li Xiaoxiao always called Si Chengxu "cousin" when outside.
Si Chengxu seemed to know what he wanted her to do and took a step forward and stood in front of Li Xiaoxiao.
