Chapter 80: Pretend to be a Snake
Thinking of this, Mrs. Liu took the initiative to open the letter.

I saw it read:

Cousin Lian, it's like seeing you in person. It's been more than half a month since we last met. I miss you so much...

I specially invite Brother Liu to have a gathering at Zui Xiang Lou at noon today, hoping...

——Yize

After reading it, Mrs. Liu was very angry.

If the previous name was written wrong, and Lianxing was mistakenly written as Liantang, this is also possible.

But the word "Lian Tang" was written on the letter, which meant that this letter was written by General Gu's son to Liu Lian Tang!
How could this bastard be able to make friends with the son of the general's mansion? He was even invited to a banquet!

Mrs. Liu was just getting angry when she heard her son Liu Lianxing walk in. After all, his voice sounded intermittent.

"Mother! But what's the matter? As soon as I woke up, I heard that something big had happened, so I came to see."

Mrs. Liu's angry expression disappeared in an instant, and she walked over with a smile on her face, as if she was not the one who was so angry just now.

"Son, why are you up so early? You drank so much yesterday, are you sober today? Listen to me, go back to bed, don't hurt yourself."

"Mom! I'm sober now! I don't need to go back to sleep, but if there's anything, tell me quickly!"

If you listened carefully, you would know that Liu Lianxing was not completely sober yet, and his tone of voice was still a little confused.

"Mom, what is this? Show it to me!"

Liu Lianxing saw the paper that Mrs. Liu had placed on the table and walked up to grab it.

"Brother Lian, I am very grateful for your kindness... Who wrote this letter to Liu Liantang? How does he know this person?"

"Xing'er, this is a letter from the general's mansion." Mrs. Liu explained quickly.

"What!" After hearing this, the remaining trace of drunkenness in Liu Lianxing instantly disappeared and he was completely sober.

"Mother thought this was written by someone, but the person who delivered the letter and the signature on the letter don't seem fake. It should be a letter from the General's Mansion."

Mrs. Liu originally suspected that the word "Lianxing" was mistakenly written as "Liantang", and now she began to suspect that the letter was forged. But no matter how Mrs. Liu looked at it, the letter did not look fake.

"Mom, don't say anymore. It's a letter written by General Gu's eldest son, Gu Yize, to that kid Liu Liantang!"

Liu Lianxing naturally remembered the situation at the poetry meeting, and it is still vivid in his mind now.

No one knew when Liu Liantang had made friends with General Gu's son Gu Yize, and it seemed that Gu Yize did not despise Liu Liantang's status as a bastard.

It's really abominable!
Even the poem that he accidentally copied was actually written by Gu Yize. At that time, he thought that Liu Liantang could prevent this mistake for him, but under Gu Yize's instigation, Liu Liantang dared to disobey and confessed himself!

After returning home that day, Liu Liantang even challenged him with a clear conscience! Fortunately, his father was there, and he used the family law to punish him to kneel in the ancestral hall. That Aunt Zhang was also blind, and she still wanted to see Liu Liantang, but she ended up dead in the end!

I want to see who else in this mansion dares to get close to Liu Liantang!
However, since the death of Nanny Zhang, Liu Liantang has become much more obedient and has returned to his original timid appearance. He has even become more proactive and has shown more discerning eyes.

Thinking of this, Liu Lianxing's heart calmed down.

"Liu Liantang should have met Gu Yize at a poetry gathering. Not to mention that one is the eldest son of a general and the other is a concubine's son. How could they know each other when there is such a huge difference between them? What's worse is that they seem to have a good relationship!"

"What?" Mrs. Liu was a little shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect that Liu Liantang actually got to know General Gu's eldest son, Gu Yize!

"Xing'er, tell me, if Liu Liantang comes to the appointment, will he tell Gu Yize about the bad things we did to him?"

If it was a few days ago, Liu Lianxing might have thought that this was possible. But now, Liu Lianxing was really calm and not anxious at all. "Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Liu Lianxing said, patting his chest.

"Mom, don't worry. When I tell Liu Liantang to go east, he doesn't dare to go west. When I tell Liu Liantang to go south, he doesn't dare to go north! Ever since Nanny Zhang died, he hasn't dared to even show the slightest bit of resentment!"

"That's good, but what about the letter? Should Liu Liantang still go?" asked Mrs. Liu.

"It's just a meal, what's the big deal? Let him go! If he doesn't go, if Gu Yize gets suspicious, it will do more harm than good to our Liu family."

Hearing this, Mrs. Liu burst into laughter.

"Son! You are much smarter now, and you are quite like your father in his old days! In time, Xing'er, you will have smooth sailing in the officialdom and rise to high positions step by step!"

Hearing Mrs. Liu's praise, Liu Lianxing could no longer hide his pride and started laughing.

"Thank you for the compliment, mother."

As the two were talking, someone came over to call Liu Liantang over.

"Madam, Master!" Liu Liantang walked with his head down all the way, showing his humble status. He even took the initiative to bring up this title.

Liu Lianxing and Madam Liu turned their heads and saw Liu Liantang in front of them bowing his head.

Hearing this address, Liu Lianxing and Mrs. Liu were in a very good mood.

This title lowered Liu Liantang's status to that of a servant. How could Liu Lianxing and Madam Liu not be happy?

Of course, this is also the case when there are no outsiders around. After all, if others hear it, it is easy to be gossiped about.

"Get up, this is a letter from the General's Mansion, you two can take a look." Liu Lianxing pointed with his hand, and Liu Liantang stepped forward, took the letter and began to read it.

After reading it, a strange expression flashed in Liu Liantang's eyes.

I didn't expect that the eldest son of the general's mansion, Gu Yize, still remembered me and even specially invited me to a reunion.

"Hurry up and write a letter to reply to Gu Yize's letter and accept the invitation."

Liu Liantang thought Liu Lianxing would not agree, but he actually agreed.

That’s right, given my current state, Liu Lianxing doesn’t take me seriously at all.

"I'll have someone find you a set of clothes. After all, you are the son of the Liu family. If you go there dressed like you are now, it will be a disgrace to our Liu family."

"Also, when you go, be quiet. Think about what you should and shouldn't say before you speak!"

When Liu Liantang heard this, he smiled with disdain in his heart, but did not show anything on his face.

"Don't worry, Master. I know all this. After all, this matter concerns the reputation of the Zan Liu family."

"It's all right for you to know. Well, I'll grant you half a day off. Go back and pack your things now!"

"Thank you, Master. I'll take my leave now."

Liu Liantang turned around, and the expression on his face suddenly became cold. His eyes were like ice and the abyss.

Now I know some clues, and in time, I will make you all regret what you have done!

I, Liu Liantang, will avenge Aunt Zhang!
