But in fact, Ye Congwen's tolerance for his bad daughter is already very high. It is so infuriating that Ye Shu can't walk with her legs. I wonder what would happen if this was a normal thing.
The father and daughter had another fierce quarrel.
In the end, Ye Congwen still forcefully exercised his rights as a father. He ordered people to send Ye Shu alone to the room in the ancestral hall dedicated to her mother, and let her face her mother's tablet and reflect on her mistakes for three days.
During this period, you cannot leave the room and no one is allowed to serve you, except when you need to eat or drink, and no one can protect you.
When Ye Shu heard that she was asked to go to the ancestral hall to guard her mother's tablet for three days, she became anxious.
Because she was claustrophobic, the room was kept closed all day long, with only a few rays of sunlight shining in. Incense was burned all day long, and the room was cramped and depressing, with a strong smell of incense lingering inside.
From childhood to adulthood, Ye Congwen punished her like this more than once. It was okay at the beginning, until one time, something strange happened. Ye Shu was locked up in there for a whole night and started crying and making a fuss, saying that it was haunted and there was a ghost.
When Ye Congwen went to pick her up, she was so scared that her face turned pale. It didn't seem like she was acting. After the incident, she was actually sick for several days.
Since then, Ye Shu has been particularly afraid of this small room where her mother's tablet was enshrined, and she is also afraid of being alone in a cramped and dark space.
Every night when she sleeps, the stars and the moon have to take turns to keep watch over her.
In the past, she would only be imprisoned for one day for any crime she committed, but now it’s three days. Wouldn’t that torture her to death?
Ye Congwen was really angry this time, because he didn't know if more people saw Ye Shu delivering such a ridiculous gift behind his back yesterday. What would people say about him? That he was a bad parent? That he was unworthy of being a teacher?
He was really afraid that the reputation he had worked so hard to build up over the years would be ruined, and that it would also affect Baiyun Academy.
So this time he was very firm in his attitude and pretended not to hear Ye Shu's crying and making a fuss.
When Ye Shu was sent into the small room, a beam of light happened to shine on her mother's tablet. In that dim environment, the more you looked at it, the colder your spine felt.
There is a cold and eerie feeling.
She couldn't help but think of what happened in her childhood, and she couldn't help but start to daydream. A layer of cold sweat appeared on her forehead. It is said that smelling incense can calm one's heart, but she couldn't calm down for a moment.
She will always remember that:
"It's all your fault. If it weren't for giving birth to you, I wouldn't have died so early..."
Ye Shu had only been inside for a while when she started crying and making a fuss. Ruxing Ruyue, who was guarding outside, had no reaction at all and had no emotion at all. She thought that it was the master's order and no one should care about it, as it was all her own fault.
It's good to be scared, and they will behave themselves for a while after they get out. It would be best if they were scared to death or got sick, so that it would be all over once and for all.
Ye Shu had a really hard time these days. The day before, she was still able to make a fuss. When someone came in, she would grab him and not let him leave, shouting that she wanted to see Ye Congwen.
But no one paid any attention to her and no one dared to talk to her.
Ye Shu had difficulty walking and could only pee on herself. She wanted to take the opportunity to go out for some fresh air, but Ye Congwen ordered her to change clothes inside and refused to let her go out. The person inside was her mother, not someone else, so it was not disrespectful.
He also knew that his daughter was really scared, but if he didn't punish her severely, she really wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the big and small kings.
In short, after these three days, when Ye Shu saw the sun again, she looked much more haggard and her face was pale. She was fine during the day, but at night, when the candle was lit, it began to sway in the wind, and so did the door curtain behind her. She began to have wild thoughts.
Moreover, she hadn't slept in a bed for three days, and her waist was almost broken. Her face was pale, as if all her energy had been sucked out.
Moreover, she had been peeing on herself these past few days. Every time, Ru Xing Ru Yue would just go in and help her wipe it a little, and then change her clothes. There was an indescribable smell on her body.
As luck would have it, on the way back to the yard, I met Luo Ming who was on his way to the academy.
When Luo Ming saw her like this, he almost couldn't help but shout out in joy. When he approached, the wind blew and the scent of Ye Shu floated into his nose.
Luo Ming's mouth and nose were immediately covered with hands, and the disgust in his eyes was not concealed at all.
Ye Shu collapsed at that moment. She felt like she had lost her last bit of fig leaf. She was always arrogant in front of Luo Ming, but now he saw her worst side. How could she not hate him?
She broke two of her nails, but the pain in her hands was far less than the hatred in her heart. She blamed it all on Jiang Sui. If it weren't for her, how could she have ended up like this?
Everyone in this mansion looked at her with disgust. Why did those lowly servants look down on her?
As expected, Ye Shu fell ill again, and she scared herself so much that she lay in bed, having nightmares.
She deserves it!
…
Compared to the chaos in the Ye Mansion, the Xiao Mansion was filled with a joyous atmosphere all day long.
Look, the tailor from Lu Yao's cloth shop has arranged to come to the homes of two couples to take measurements and make clothes for them. This tailor is the head of Lu's cloth shop and has decades of experience. He also brought a female assistant with him so that he can take measurements for the women without any embarrassment.
It was agreed in advance that Grandpa Liang, Grandma Liang and Liang Ming are all here today to witness this moment.
Both couples had happy smiles on their faces and prayed for a better life in the future.
The tailor brought many wedding dress patterns for the two brides to choose from, because everyone has different aesthetic tastes and ideas, some like more luxurious ones, while others like simple ones.
They have the final say anyway. When the time comes, their orders will be queued up and processed at the front. After all, it was the second young master who gave the order himself.
After measuring the sizes and choosing the styles of wedding dresses, she started to measure a few sets of casual clothes for Song Wan and Liang Cuicui. It didn't matter whether it cost money or not, as long as they were satisfied, Xiao's mother was happy to pay.
Craftsmen have already been hired to make the silver hairpins, silver bracelets, and jade earrings. Except for the silver bracelet, which is the same style, the other two are different.
As for the headwear that the two brides-to-be would need for their wedding, Song Wan said that she could help. She was a hairpin lady herself and could make her own wedding headwear by herself. She could also help Liang Cuicui make it as well. This way, she could save some labor costs. Anyway, any savings counts, and the Xiao family is not particularly rich now.
It would take at least half a month to make the wedding dress, so the wedding day for the eldest brother and Song Wan was chosen to be a month later, and the wedding day for Xiao Yi and Liang Cuicui was set in the winter month.
