The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly Chapter 571 - 236 My Son is a Treacherous Minister (Part 12)
"Vice Minister Yang’s son? He must be extrely well-versed in propriety."
He Tiantian intentionally raised her voice so everyone in the tavern’s main hall could hear.
It was as if she was looking at an idol, her eyes filled with awe as she gazed at Yang Sanlang, then said, "I have long heard that the Yang Family is a great noble family."
"Vice Minister Yang is the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites; all the young n in his family know the rules and prioritize propriety!"
"Seeing it today, indeed, the reputation is well-deserved."
"Look at this young man, with his imposing appearance and extraordinary deanor..."
He Tiantian behaved like a naive village girl who suddenly saw a noble young master, imdiately feeling overwheld and ashad of herself.
Anyway, her flattering words made Yang Sanlang very overconfident.
"I dare not accept such praise, I am just slightly better than those crude farrs!"
Yang Sanlang indeed despised He Xi, or rather, his nature was indeed arrogant and disdainful.
Ms. Hetian had praised him so, yet instead of being modest, he continued to indirectly insult the He family as inferior.
"Farr," even without understanding its true aning, just seeing the word "servant" in there, one could guess it was extrely humiliating.
And the He family ca from a poor family, as He Tiantian just openly admitted; during the busy farming seasons, she, a woman, also had to work in the fields alongside n.
Yang Sanlang ntioning "farr" in front of Ms. Hetian was not rely an implication.
It was practically like cursing a monk to his face.
Of course, if He Tiantian hadn’t flattered him so, as if she hadn’t heard Yang Sanlang’s indirect insults.
Yang Sanlang might have not been so reckless.
He was indeed arrogant, but he was not without intellect.
Indirect insults with vague targets, skirting around with word play, that was nothing.
Because with such words, even if taken seriously, he could simply feign surprise and say, "I was talking about soone else, not you!"
And he would look at the person with a gaze that said, "There are people who pick up silver, why are there fools who pick up insults to listen to?" creating a second layer of humiliation.
But if he openly insulted soone, that would be going too far.
Firstly, it would give people sothing to talk about.
Secondly, no matter what, Ms. Hetian was still an "elder."
Even though this woman appeared young, her son was already an official in the Imperial court, not to ntion, Ms. Hetian also had the nearly exoneration status of being a chaste woman!
Vice Minister Yang indeed had a rivalry in the officialdom with He Xi, but political adversaries did not involve family mbers, let alone that Yang Sanlang and He Xi had not openly broken relations yet.
And yet, Yang Sanlang, as the son of the Yang Family, publicly humiliated He Xi’s mother, who had an excellent reputation... tsk tsk, such an act, even the common folk would shake their heads, let alone if it reached the Saint, it would be the Yang Family’s fault!
Actually, when Yang Sanlang arrogantly ntioned "farr" again to He Tiantian, he was secretly sowhat regretful.
But soon, he consoled himself. Even if he directly insulted Ms. Hetian, so what?
Soone as ignorant as her, already feeling inferior, being exposed in public would only feel more ashad, rather than causing a scene.
If it really did cause a scene, while Yang Sanlang might be criticized for arrogance, Ms. Hetian wouldn’t end up well either.
The He family was originally re peasants, whereas the Yang Family was a noble family.
It was only because noble families in the Daxia Dynasty had fallen, and poor families were rising up.
If it was in the Previous Dynasty, bah, soone like He Xi, a re farr, would not have even had the right to enter the Imperial court.
And yet he dared to compete with a Yang Family’s son for an official position?
Bah, truly, the world is in disorder, nobility and propriety are trampled!
Yang Sanlang thought furiously, any initial unease in his heart also dissolving.
He was betting that Ms. Hetian would not dare to make this public, much less challenge a noble family.
He Tiantian: ... Dear, I’m sorry, but you’ve lost the bet!
He Tiantian’s previous sycophantic flattery looked just like soone of low birth suddenly facing a "Noble," filled with envy, admiration, and self-denial.
It was all to make Yang Sanlang overconfident.
At this mont, Yang Sanlang recklessly calling her a "farr," He Tiantian imdiately seized the handle.
Her expression changed dramatically, she suddenly challenged, "Mr. Yang, as a learned and reasonable man, and since I am a stranger to you, why do you insult ?"
