"Are they making trouble again?" Liang Tan was practicing calligraphy while Dengzhi was grinding for her.

"Yes, I heard that Miss Sheng also wants to attend Madam Li's birthday party, but only ladies from famous families can attend Madam Li's birthday party... Although Miss Sheng is the daughter of the master, she was born out of wedlock after all, so she can't be on the stage."

Liang Tan unfolded the scroll, took out a piece of calligraphy paper, and lowered his head to copy the contents of the scroll.

"What happened next?" Liang Tan asked while copying.

Dengzhi said in a joking tone: "This Second Miss, of course, refused to take Miss Sheng with her. Miss Sheng was pushed out the door, and the Second Miss even shouted that if Miss Sheng dared to appear in front of her again, she would dig out her eyes and feed them to the dogs."

Well, this is indeed her sister's temper.

"Miss, why do you think Miss Sheng must go to Madam Li's birthday party?"

After all, Liang Tan knew very well what Xu Shengsheng was going to do at Madam Li’s birthday party.

Liang Tan continued copying, and said to Deng Zhi without raising his head: "In another quarter of an hour, let's go and pay our respects to Dad."

She was sent out by the young lady to deliver a letter last night and had just returned. Dengzhi glanced at the sky outside and asked Liang Tan in confusion, "Did the young lady go to greet the master so early today?"

"In a quarter of an hour, Dad's place will be very lively."

"Ah?" Dengzhi was surprised. What excitement could there be so early in the morning?

Liang Tan practiced calligraphy, and when the time was almost up, he took Dengzhi to pay his respects to Liang Su.

As soon as I walked to the window, I heard a bustling noise inside.

Dengzhi listened to the noise inside and looked at Liang Tan again.

She really admired the young lady for her ability to foresee things.

Liang Tan looked inside through the half-open window.

Liang You's voice inside yelled, "Dad! Don't agree to let her go to Madam Li's birthday party!"

"Dad..." Xu Shengsheng still looked weak and spineless. He was holding Liang Su with both hands, hiding behind Liang Su with a wronged and pitiful look.

"Dad, the eldest and second young ladies are going, I also want to go and see the world..."

"If there's no mirror, there's always urine! Why don't you take a piss to look at yourself? Are you worthy enough to go to Madam Li's birthday party? Bah!" Liang You cursed early in the morning and wanted to spit at Xu Shengsheng, but unexpectedly, the spit went onto Liang Su's face.

Liang Su got a headache when he saw Liang You. Liang You spit on his face, which he had just washed early in the morning. She also kept chattering, "It's so noisy! Take the second young lady out!"

Liang Su turned around and spoke to Xu Shengsheng in a much softer manner: "Don't worry, Shengsheng, Dad will definitely arrange for you to attend Madam Li's birthday banquet when the time comes."

"Thank you dad."

"Bitch! Bitch!"

Liang You was carried out, but she still turned her head back and cursed.

After a while, Xu Shengsheng also went out obediently.

After the two men left, Liang Tan went in to greet Liang Su.

At that time, Liang Su was gargling.

Liang Su couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw Liang Tan coming.

"Why is Tan'er here?"

Liang Tan politely greeted Liang Su: "Dad, I got up early today and wanted to come and greet you."

"Tan'er is filial." Liang Su held a mouthwash cup in his hand.

He looked at his daughter in front of him.

Tan'er is neither as crazy as You'er, nor as well-behaved as Sheng'er. She is calm and peaceful, yet has a sense of alienation that does not allow anyone to get close to her.

Liang Su always felt a little uncomfortable when getting along with Tan'er.

Liang Tan said: "When I came here, I saw Miss Sheng go out, but what happened?"

"Sheng'er wanted to attend Madam Li's birthday party, but You'er refused to go. Now the two of them are here to make trouble."

"Did Dad agree?" Liang Tan asked knowingly.

"She's just a little girl who wants to see the world, so of course I agreed." Liang Su put down the mouthwash cup in his hand.

"It's better if Dad doesn't agree." Liang Tan's voice, as cool as water, sounded as she parted her red lips.

Liang Su didn't seem to expect Liang Tan to say this, but since his eldest daughter was calm, he still wanted to hear the reasons.

"Dad, do you know what happened on Heqian Street the day before yesterday?"

Liang Su didn't know why Liang Tan brought up what happened the day before at this time.

It was just a joke between kids, and Sheng'er didn't break into Qianguan's private room on purpose.

What else could it be?

Liang Tan spoke lightly, exaggerating what happened between Li Ruo and Xu Shengsheng before the money jar appeared before telling Liang Su.

After hearing this, Liang Su suddenly opened his eyes wide.

"How ridiculous!" Liang Su slammed the table and said, "Sheng'er is a girl, and he hugged her in the street like this. When I see Li Ruo again, I will make him pay!"

Li Ruo was her fiancé, and her fiancé rescued Xu Shengsheng in the street. Her cheap father did not consider her reputation at all, but was always thinking about Xu Shengsheng.

Liang Tan didn't feel anything because he had expected it.

Liang Tan said, "That's exactly why Daddy can't agree to let Miss Sheng go. Those who can go to Heqian Street are all well-known people in Jiangnan City. The gossip between Miss Sheng and Master Li the other day has now become everyone's after-dinner talk. Master Li is nothing, but Miss Sheng is a girl who is being talked about so much... But after a few days, it will be over when the storm has passed."

"But if we let Miss Sheng appear in front of everyone again at this time, rumors will spread everywhere at the birthday party. By then, it won't be a matter of a few days."

"Also, if someone were to inquire about Miss Sheng's background..."

Xu Shengsheng was born to a concubine, but in Jiangnan City, everyone only knew that Liang Su was a good clerk with integrity. He had only one wife, who had been in a temple for many years, and Liang Su had never taken a concubine.

His affection for his wife was evident to everyone in Jiangnan City.

If Xu Shengsheng's identity was known to others at this time, how would he be able to justify his reputation of "being deeply in love with only one person"?

Liang Su slammed the table again and said firmly: "Shengsheng can't go."

Liang Su's gaze fell on Liang Tan, who was wearing elegant clothes, and his eyes suddenly showed approval.

The eldest daughter is not easy to get along with, but she is still reliable.

"Tan'er, Dad is confused. Fortunately, you reminded him." Liang Su stretched out his hand to pat Liang Tan's shoulder. Liang Tan stepped back slightly to avoid him. Liang Su withdrew his hand awkwardly.

"Tan'er, I'm leaving." Liang Tan knelt down, turned around and left the room.

-

Liming Garden.

"Miss, Miss Sheng is here."

"Let her in."

The snow was strong and the wind was fierce. Xu Shengsheng put down her umbrella and walked into the house. Liang Tan was drinking tea with a lady at that time. Liang Tan asked without raising his head: "Miss Sheng, you are in a good mood today. Why did you think of coming to my place?"

Just as she got her father's consent to let her attend Mrs. Li's birthday party, her father sent someone to tell her to rest at home.

Who else can do this except Liang Tan in front of him?

And she was still asking questions even though she knew the answer.

It really is a bad thing.

Xu Shengsheng suppressed her anger towards Liang Tan. She maintained her gentle personality and saluted Liang Tan obediently: "Are you still angry, Miss?"

Liang Tan listened to her words, raised his eyebrows slightly, and raised his tone a little: "Angry?"

Xu Shengsheng looked innocent. She apologized to Liang Tan first: "Miss, Mr. Li saved me in Heqian Street because it was an emergency. If you complain to dad about the Heqian Street incident and don't let your sister attend Madam Li's birthday party, isn't that a bit petty..."
