Chapter 277 I Can’t Keep This Brother

When Gu Jiayue returned to Li Sandan's house with Li Sandan's homework, she saw Gu Yuhe pacing back and forth anxiously in Li Sandan's yard, looking out from time to time.

Seeing this, Gu Jiayue didn't rush in.

She beckoned Hua Chao to walk a little further under the fence, and the two of them squatted under the fence outside the yard. She wanted to see if this was a bad idea from her good brother.

Li Sandan's face was also filled with anxiety. Seeing Gu Yuhe spinning around like a top, he became even more anxious. "Brother Yuhe, is it really okay to do this? What if the teacher finds out?"

Gu Yuhe actually had no idea what to do, but he couldn't lose face in front of his younger brother! "Who am I? I'm the smartest person in Taohua Village. How could my advice be wrong?"

"Don't worry, my sister said she's going to finish visiting all the children in the village today. With her plan, she won't have time to carefully check the homework. As long as Da Liao doesn't get nervous and does what I said, he can take out other textbooks and ask questions while my sister is checking the homework. I guarantee my sister won't find out."

Gu Yuhe was talking freely and had no idea that danger was approaching him.

"Ahem." Li Sandan looked at Gu Jiayue standing at the gate with her arms folded, and he felt sick. Gu Yuhe was still talking about his perfect plan, and he didn't notice Li Sandan's reminder at all.

Until someone pulled his ears.

"Who is it? Who is pulling my ears?" Gu Yuhe covered his ears and tried to turn his head back, trying to see clearly who was so bold as to hurt him in broad daylight.

Don’t you know that he is now the number one bully in Taohua Village?

But when he turned around, he saw his second sister looking at him with a half-smile. He suddenly felt like the end of the world had come.

"Hey, second sister, why are you back?"

His flattering smile didn't impress Gu Jiayue. "Oh? Come back? How did you know I'd been to Sandan's house?"

Uh... Oops, slip of the tongue.

"Hey, I came here to play with Sandan. Sandan told me so."

"Sandan, is that so?" Gu Jiayue looked at Li Sandan.

When Sandan met Gu Jiayue's eyes that saw through everything, he lowered his head and couldn't say a word.

"Second sister, don't ask Sandan, he's shy." Only Gu Yuhe didn't understand Gu Jiayue's expression and was still struggling.

Sandan secretly tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to stop talking. Didn't you see that the teacher's face had turned dark?

But Gu Yuhe seemed to have a short circuit in his brain. He actually looked at Gu Jiayue with a silly smile, looking like a good younger brother.

How could Gu Jiayue not see through his little trick? He was just playing nice and trying to get away with it.

Gu Jiayue took out Li Sandan's homework and said, "I've returned from Zhang Dapiao's house. He has explained everything. Now it's your turn."

"Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist." After saying this, he found a chair and sat down without even looking at the two children.

The two children looked at each other. While Li Sandan was still organizing his words, Gu Yuhe slid to his knees and appeared in front of Gu Jiayue.

She knelt on the ground with her buttocks sticking out, holding a stick she had picked up somewhere. "Sister, this was all my idea. I was wrong. Go ahead and hit me. I won't do it again."

He is very skilled at admitting his mistakes.

From the moment his second sister appeared, Gu Yuhe knew that their plan had failed.

So he pretended nothing happened, trying to get away with it, but his second sister didn't intend to let him go.

In that case, he had no choice but to admit his mistake first. That way, his second sister would be more lenient with him because of his good attitude.

As for whether I'll dare to do it again next time, who knows? We'll see when the time comes.

It can be said that Gu Yuhe has grasped Gu Jiayue's character perfectly.

Li Sandan, who was standing by, was completely stunned.

We're not brothers, how can we play like this? Your kneeling posture is so skillful that I'm a little overwhelmed.

This... should I kneel down or not?

Gu Jiayue watched Gu Yuhe acting coldly without saying anything.

As time passed, his knees began to ache. Gu Yuhe couldn't help but get anxious.

"Second sister."

Gu Jiayue closed her eyes, as if she was asleep.

What? Corporal punishment of students?

No, he wanted to kneel down. Besides, didn't she hear what Gu Yuhe called her?

Second sister.

So she was just a housekeeper taking care of her useless younger brother.

After about half an hour, Gu Yuhe's face had turned pale and he began to stagger. Gu Jiayue finally opened her eyes. "Get up."

Gu Yuhe stood up quickly as if he had been pardoned. However, because he had been kneeling for too long, his knees were already skinned and his legs were weak. If Li Sandan hadn't quickly helped him up, he would have definitely fallen to the ground.

Gu Jiayue had other things to do and couldn't continue wasting time here.

She looked at Li Sandan. "Do you realize your mistake?"

Although Li Sandan did not kneel on the ground for more than half an hour like Gu Yuhe, he also stood here motionless for the same amount of time.

Although the New Year has passed, the cold wind is still very cold.

Hearing Gu Jiayue's question, he quickly bowed his hands and lowered his waist. "Disciple knows his mistake."

When Gu Yuhe proposed this plan, he had rejected it. But he couldn't argue with Gu Yuhe and his group, so he could only watch them take away his homework.

But this wasn't a reason for him to avoid punishment. Seriously speaking, he was also at fault for not telling the Master immediately. After all, he also wanted to help his friend.

So no matter how the teacher punished him, he accepted it.

"Copy 'The Master said: A gentleman has nine thoughts: seeing to see clearly, hearing to hear sharply, looking to be warm, looking to be respectful, speaking to be loyal, doing things to be respectful, asking questions when in doubt, thinking of difficulties when angry, and seeing gains to be righteous.'" One hundred times, and give it to me in three days. Also write me a self-criticism of no less than five hundred words."

"Yes." Li Sandan breathed a sigh of relief. The punishment was not severe, but it was not easy for a six-year-old child.

But it also indirectly shows that the Master was not disappointed in him.

So Li Sandan was completely satisfied with this punishment.

Gu Yuhe on the side looked at Gu Jiayue expectantly. Although Gu Jiayue didn't say anything, he already knew that he had done something wrong during the time he was kneeling.

He said anxiously, "Second sister, I also know I was wrong."

Gu Jiayue lowered her head and said, "Well, go back and pack up your daily necessities. Hu Zi will take you somewhere in the evening."

Since you don't want to suffer the hardship of studying and just want to take shortcuts every day, then go and suffer the hardship of life.

It just so happened that Kangzi wrote to her yesterday, saying that the store was very busy during the New Year. If it weren't for the curfew, she might have to work all night and wouldn't come back to wish her a happy new year.

She thought, since it was so busy, he should be a waiter, right?

Then let Gu Yuhe try it. Without his parents and relatives, his little cleverness is really useless.

She would write a letter asking Kangzi to teach him well.

These words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing Gu Yuhe's expectations.

What does Second Sister mean by this? Are you no longer going to discipline him?

And asked him to pack his things? Are they going to kick him out of the house?

He suddenly became frightened. He quickly hugged Gu Jiayue's thighs and cried. "Second sister, what do you mean? You don't want me as your brother anymore?"

Gu Jiayue moved her legs, but unfortunately she failed to pull it out.

“Let go!”

Gu Yuhe didn't dare to act like a troublemaker anymore and obediently let go of his hand.

Gu Jiayue looked at him. "Do as I say, or the consequences will be even more serious."

She didn't mind sending him directly to the military camp. Although he was only seven years old and couldn't serve in the army, it should be no problem to send him to help with the cooking.

If all else fails, she can be sent to mine. She remembered that there was a mine not far from Juzhou.
