Chapter 290 Miss Xue
"Thank you for your trouble, Taoist priest."

Song Lan did not refuse the old Taoist's kindness.

After the meal, he sent the young girl to rest, while he wandered around the Changsheng Temple.

Changsheng Temple is not large in area, but it has a good location, nestled against the mountains and by the water, with pleasant scenery.

In the secluded valleys and forests, birds sing and flowers bloom.

Wild peonies bloom in profusion, hidden in the mountains and fields.

As I was looking, I suddenly heard some chattering sounds.

Song Lan turned around and, sure enough, saw several elegantly dressed young women surrounding a young woman not far away, mocking her with sharp and sarcastic voices.

She raised an eyebrow.

It seems to be an accident.

It's true, you can search high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly.

I met him so quickly.

Song Lan stood still, quietly listening to their bickering.

"...Even someone like you managed to get an invitation from Madam Xue? Could it be that you stole someone's invitation and are trying to take advantage of the situation?"

"You vixen! You've got the wrong idea. Do you think some young master or nobleman will be coming today?"

"This is a Taoist temple, a pure and tranquil place for immortals. Do you think this is the brothel you used to frequent?"

The men were spouting vulgarities, repeatedly accusing the girl of being immoral, promiscuous, and lacking self-control.

Song Lan listened to these familiar words and scoffed silently.

As always, these people can only spout vulgar and obscene language.

It is clear that Heaven is indeed blind.

Otherwise, why would we allow these people to speak ill of others and ruin their reputations?
The little girl, surrounded in the middle, kept her head down and remained silent, appearing rather submissive.

It's unclear whether the girl simply didn't react to anything the other person said. She wasn't angry, annoyed, or responding.

As they talked, they suddenly got bored, shoved the man a few times, kicked him, tripped him, and then walked away triumphantly.

Song Lan was wondering whether she should step forward and meddle for a moment.

Then they saw the little girl who was lying on the ground get up and pat the dirt off her body.

He left as if nothing had happened.

Song Lan raised an eyebrow in surprise, and with a wisp of resentment, chased after the person.

Xue Wan arrived at Changsheng Temple after having lunch.

The young ladies from official families who had been invited by her were already getting impatient and even suspected that someone was using Xue Wan's name to trick them into coming here to suffer.

After all, given their family background, they were never meant to be considered as good as the Xue family.

After arriving at the Changsheng Temple, they discovered that Xue Wan had invited mostly daughters of minor officials of the fifth or sixth rank.

There wasn't even a family with a fourth-rank official, let alone a family with a high-ranking official of the fourth rank or above.

They couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.

Just as she was hesitating whether to leave and return home while it was still early, Xue Wan appeared.

"Miss Xue!"

The women were both surprised and delighted. They were surprised that Xue Wan had really invited them to enjoy the flowers and the scenery, and they were delighted that they now had the opportunity to establish a relationship with Xue Wan!

Perhaps in the future, I can take the opportunity to visit the Xue family, and then...

Among the Xue family's young masters of the same generation as Xue Wan, there are several eligible young men who are not yet engaged.

"I've kept you all waiting."

Xue Wan walked forward with a gentle smile, greeting everyone politely and warmly, as if they were very familiar with each other.

Everyone felt they had been treated with the utmost respect and were filled with pride.

When Liu Wu and Su Xianyun passed by, they heard the voices and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is this Miss Xue a very capable person? Why do they all seem to admire her so much?"
