Chapter XIX: Punishment

Guan Yuan, inside the house. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yang Shouyan's posture with a teacup was graceful and luxurious, her beautiful face was expressionless, and when she looked up and saw Jing Ci coming in, the corners of her mouth were pulled, and there were needles hidden in her mouth.

For the sudden smile, Jing Ci's heart couldn't help but tighten. I have to admit that she is quite afraid of Yang Shouyan's laughter. Brilliant, glamorous, moving, like a noble white fox robe, perfectly concealing her true thoughts.

But a few days later, she came again, and Jing Cifu saluted.

"Siniang has been adapting lately?"

"Very good."

"The day you came back, I warned you that in the Yang Mansion, you can't be as stubborn as in the Wang family."

"I ......"

"Huh?" Yang Shouyan interrupted her quibble, and her sharp eyes stared at her tightly.

"I'm not stubborn." Even though he could vaguely feel the other party's displeasure, Jing Ci still said it.

Yang Shouyan's voice suddenly cooled, "You dare to say that you don't need to take half of the responsibility for Li Chen's injury?" ”

"Big, big lady......" Fang Nian behind him couldn't help but maintain, his voice trembled, "Li Langjun forced the fourth lady to compete with him, and the fourth lady was, was forced." ”

"Bold, which turn will you speak!" Aru on the side scolded sharply.

Fang Nian shrunk.

"I am willing to gamble and lose, and if I can't afford to play, don't play, Li Chen has to be responsible for this matter." Jing Ci said.

How old a girl is, she has the courage to talk back to her, Yang Shouyan laughed frankly, she really underestimated this young girl, "Do you know what is willing to gamble and lose?" ”

"Bear the consequences of your own actions, and do not involve or associate others."

Yang Shouyan smiled and lowered his face, "Go back and copy the Analects five times." ”

"Why? It's not my fault. Jing was not convinced.

"If it is not completed within three days, it will be grounded for one month."

Under the eaves, since Yang Shouyan had already decided that it was her fault, she knew that it was useless to say it. Jing Ci then blessed his body with qi and turned around and withdrew from the courtyard.

Since she was a child, Daddy taught her to be responsible for doing things, and to do things by herself. Therefore, no matter how she causes trouble outside, she would rather die than implicate the Wang family. This Li Chen is good, originally she was a little guilty for making an accident with him because of a bet with him, but she didn't expect him to sue so quickly, but now the guilt in her heart is gone!

"Ugh." Fang Nian sighed.

"What's there to sigh about, just copy it, I'm not wrong anyway."

"Fourth lady, don't say that again." The silent young girl on the side said.

"Li Langjun is the eldest son of the eldest lady, and he is the demon king of the Yang Mansion on weekdays, the fourth lady, you really shouldn't offend him." Fang Nian muttered.

"How did I know that he was so frivolous, and he loved the wicked to sue first. There is really no good person in the Yang Mansion, there is Yang Yupei in the front, and Li Chen in the back, is it so difficult to treat each other calmly......"

Qingnu and Fang Nian sighed silently in their hearts, they were helpless when they met such a stubborn master.

…………

Guan Yuan, inside the house. Yang Shouyan took the account book presented by her mother-in-law, and said while flipping it: "That girl really can't stop for a moment. ”

"I'm out there, and I have to correct it."

"Poor Chen'er, hurt like that." A rare trace of tenderness appeared on Yang Shouyan's face.

"The slaves and maids will give the maids to take care of them."

…………

In the next few days, Jing Ci copied the Analects in the courtyard every day.

The young girl grinds ink on the side, and Fang Nian brings tea and water from time to time. It's strange to say, usually if the ladies make mistakes, the punishment is usually "The Female Commandment", but Yang Shouyan asked her to copy the "Analects", is it possible that the women of the Yang family are all raised as men?

Daddy punished her for reciting "Chu Ci" in order to polish her literary accomplishment, Daddy is a literati, thinking that even if she is a woman, she should have ink in her stomach so as not to be vulgar, but he will not deliberately cultivate her golden mean in college.

Night is getting dark......

The courtyard was lit with a lot of lights, and it was particularly bright in the courtyards of the Yang Mansion.

The young girl added many lamps and prepared a thick stack of paper. The bookcase and the floor were covered with sheets of paper full of ink, and Fang Nian placed the copied words neatly and dry.

After copying for a whole day, Jing Ci's eyes and hands were weak, his back was sore, and he kept dozing off. After writing another paragraph, she put down her pen and planned to rest for a while. She pounded her shoulders, twisted her head from side to side and walked to the window, and snapped open the window to let in air, but the window opened......

Whoosh – whoosh –

A demonic wind swept in, and the copied paper was blown all over the house in an instant......

"Quick, quickβ€”"

"Hurry up ......"

A few maids scrambled to chase the paper flying wildly in the air.

Whoosh - dancing in the wind, without abating......

The maidens ran and jumped, reaching out to grab the paper in the air, their attention was all in the air, "Oops-"

Without paying attention, the two maids collided, and one of the maids staggered, waved his hand unconsciously, and hit a candle lamp with his elbow.

Poof-

The candle light flipped to the floor, slowly burning the paper in the corner. The two maids only cared about rubbing the sore place by themselves, and no one noticed, and the candle flame spread to stand up, and a large piece of paper hanging in the corner ignited in the blink of an eye...... The fire grew bigger and bigger, and it attracted the attention of the maid.

"Ahh

"Water! Draw water! ”

Only then did everyone panic and began to rush to catch buckets of water............

After a few back-and-forths, the fire was finally extinguished. Fortunately, it was a faint candle light, otherwise the consequences of a fire in the house would have been unimaginable. But nearly a third of the copied paper was burned.

Jing Ci was very discouraged, and sat on the couch, sleepy and tired. Inexplicably came to lose his temper, angry with others, and even more angry with himself.

Smack-

She frowned and raised her hand to throw a stack of papers to the ground, "Don't write it!" What's so great about Li Chen! ”

Bang Dong –

She raised her hand and continued to slam the pen and ink inkstone to the ground, messing up, "Why? Why! ”

Seeing this, the maids hurriedly knelt down, bowed their heads and said, "Slaves and maids should be damned......

Jing Ci looked at the messy house, angry and aggrieved, how could she have suffered these ...... Don't say this, the general manager of the past month, how has she ever suffered? She tugged on her palms tightly, her eyes were red, she really missed her father, Xiao Ping and Xiao An.

…………

Three days later.

Jing Ci had huge dark circles under his eyes and walked towards the Guan Courtyard in a daze. Behind Jing Ci, Fang Nian and the young girl with a stack of papers were in poor spirits and yawning. After Jing Ci saw Yang Shouyan, she presented the paper to the maid beside her, Yang Shouyan glanced up at Jing Ci's appearance, didn't say much, and waved her hand directly to let her go back.

Halfway down, a limping figure appeared in front of him.

After Jing Ci caught a glimpse of the other party, he immediately turned to the right, not wanting to cross paths at all.

Unexpectedly, the figure "took in the full view" of her demeanor, and couldn't help but shout loudly, "Wait, wait......"

She stopped.

"You're hiding from me?" Li Chen limped forward and hurriedly stepped forward, his tone full of questioning.

Jing Ci opened his innocent eyes and asked, "Who are you, why should I hide from you?" ”

"You just took a detour when you saw me." He insisted.

Jing Ci sneered at the corners of his mouth, turned around and walked in the direction of Li Chenlai, and looked up after a moment of rubbing shoulders and said, "Did I hide from you?" ”

Seeing this, Li Chen was so angry that he had nothing to say, "You stop, you, you have such a big temper!" I've fallen like this......"

"Aren't you very capable of sueping? Go, and say that I will ignore you, and see how your mother punishes me. Jing Ci stared at him and said leisurely, now this encounter is not due to him.

"What is the complaint?" He looked innocent, "Who, who sued!" ”

"Dare you say you didn't sue?"

"Of course not, I'm not like my mother...... Anyway, I didn't! Li Chen's tone was firm.

Jing Ci couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"Not really! Do you want me to swear it? ”

She looked at him like this, quite hesitant, and actually believed it a little.

"That's it." At this point, she didn't bother to bother with him.

As she spoke, she didn't look back and left, and now the top priority was to go back to the courtyard to get a good night's sleep.

"Hey, ......" Li Chen wanted to stop her, but he couldn't move.
