Chapter 34: Minor Punishment

Xiao Yiran bent down to pick up the slingshot, picked up a few more stones from the ground, and casually tossed them in his hand: "Which way do you think it's better for me to hit again?" โ€

Xiao Zichuan sat on the ground at a loss, his face was full of nervousness and fear, he stammered: "You, you dare!" โ€

Xiao Yiran wondered: "What am I afraid of?" Am I not qualified? โ€

Xiao Zichuan choked, what he said to Xiao Yiran just now was returned by her as it was, he stumbled back, and began to soften in his mouth: "Third sister, I was wrong." I don't dare anymore. โ€

The little guy on the side was already stunned, he couldn't believe that the third young lady could force the second young master to this point, now she looks like a delicate boudoir lady, just like a female general who kills all directions!

He came back to his senses and hurriedly threw himself at Xiao Yiran's feet: "Third Miss! The young master is just too playful, he has no malicious intentions, please bypass him this time. โ€

No matter what the master is, those of them who are slaves must protect him, otherwise they will not be the ones who will be unlucky in the end if something happens!

Seeing this little guy's earnest face, Xiao Yiran glanced at Xiao Zichuan and said with a smile: "Second brother, do you really know that you are wrong?" โ€

A trace of resentment flashed in Xiao Zichuan's eyes, he forcibly suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and nodded busily: "It's my brother who is not sensible, I know it's wrong." โ€

Xiao Yiran couldn't see his duplicity, she chuckled: "What you say doesn't count if you are unconvinced, you have to prove it to the third sister." โ€

Xiao Zichuan was dumbfounded, not to mention that he was not convinced, even if he was really convinced, how could this be proven?

The little guy on the side was also at a loss, not knowing what the third lady in front of him wanted to do.

"Since everything is caused by this slingshot, if the third brother really admits his mistake, he should burn it clean. In addition, you should bury the young bird you killed, and kneel down in front of its grave to admit your mistake. When these two things are done, the third sister will believe in the sincerity of the second brother. Xiao Yiran didn't sell anything to him, and stretched out his finger to make his own requests one by one.

What the! Xiao Zichuan's face turned green before she could finish speaking. This slingshot was bought from the Treasure Pavilion for a month's worth of moon silver, and he only got it for a few days, and it was burned like this, isn't that equivalent to ripping off his flesh! And to kneel down and apologize to a brute? Who would do such a stupid thing? He really wanted to pry open the head of this dirt bun to see what was inside, why did he come up with such a damaging move?!

"Why is the second brother unwilling?" Xiao Yiran's eyes narrowed, and his tone was dangerous. She tugged on the leather rope on the slingshot, as if looking for a feel.

Xiao Zichuan's heart suddenly tightened, he looked up at Xiao Yiran's expression, and felt that she was not pulling the leather rope, but his nerves. Swallowing his saliva, he laughed: "Third sister, don't, don't be impulsive!" I didn't say I didn't want to! โ€

"So what are you waiting for?" Xiao Yiran raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Zichuan gritted his teeth, he looked at his slingshot unwillingly, and had to staggered up and walked under the tree.

Xianglan hurriedly ran to Xiao Yiran's side, and watched with her as the second young master endured his nausea, lifted one of the young bird's feet, and then casually found a piece of mud to dig up the earth to bury the bird.

"Second brother, don't forget to say goodbye!" Seeing that he was hesitantly frozen in place, Xiao Yiran took two steps closer and smiled.

glanced at her sadly, Xiao Zichuan finally lost to the fear of her, reluctantly knelt on the ground, and bent perfunctorily towards the small dirt pit.

"That's it! That's it! He stood up and shouted with bloodshot eyes.

"Hmm. Not bad! The third sister now believes that you really know that you are wrong. There is also this slingshot, the second brother doesn't have to bother, and the third sister will give it directly to the fire-burning woman in the kitchen after a while. โ€

The more Xiao Zichuan listened, the redder his eyes became, if his eyes could kill people, I am afraid that Xiao Yiran would have died a thousand times by now, he couldn't stand it and screamed, and he ran away angrily without greeting.

"Second Young Master!" The little guy called out urgently, hurriedly saluted Xiao Yiran, and chased him away.

"Miss, Miss." Xianglan stared at the slingshot in her hand, and asked a little stunned, "The second young master is gone?" โ€

It was rare to see her showing such a stupid look, Xiao Yiran pursed her lips and smiled: "Let's go." โ€

Xianglan swallowed her saliva in disbelief, Xiao Yiran's domineering appearance just now not only stunned Xiao Zichuan and them, but even she was shocked. She had never seen a young lady like that, and the confidence of holding a stone was by no means something that a young lady who grew up in the suburbs could have.

"Miss, have you practiced shooting slingshots?" She said cautiously.

"Nope!" Xiao Yiran understated: "I just used to like to throw stones to play when I had nothing to do in the suburbs." โ€

She swore that the first half of the sentence was absolutely true, she had never played with a slingshot, but in her previous life she was more interested in archery rings.

I see. Xianglan was stunned, but even so, she was still very impressed and moved in her heart, she remembered that Xiao Yiran was indifferent in the face of Xiao Zichuan's insults, but when Xiao Zichuan wanted to beat her, she resolutely took action. It is her blessing to have such a master!

Seeing that her eyes suddenly lit up, Xiao Yiran only felt a little funny: "Let's go, let's go see the third brother." โ€

"Yes!" Xianglan replied crisply, followed her closely, and secretly resolved in her heart: she must swear allegiance to the third lady.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

As soon as he arrived at the door of Chengque Courtyard, Xiao Yiran couldn't help frowning.

The pink walls outside the courtyard peeled off in several places, the edges and corners of the mahogany gate had long been rounded, the door frame was slightly half-hidden, and there was not a single guard outside the door.

"Is the Third Young Master here?" Xianglan shouted outside the door.

After waiting for a long time, a little guy finally came out and opened the door, and he was slightly stunned when he saw Xiao Yiran.

"Our third young lady is here to see the third young master." Xianglan explained two steps forward.

It turned out that this was the third lady rumored in the house before, no wonder he felt strange. The little servant welcomed them in with a smile: "The third young master is inside, Miss, you and the slave are here." With that, he led Xiao Yiran to the courtyard.

Xiao Yiran suddenly saw the scene inside, the yard was not big, there were not a few flowers and trees, and even the subordinates didn't see one.

"Why are you the only one serving the third young master?" Xiao Yiran's tone was light.

The little servant replied: "The third young master has always been happy and quiet, and his wife also sent some people before, but they were all sent away by him, so now there is only one slave left." โ€

If you like to be clean, you don't have to leave only one person around! Xiao Yiran was puzzled.
