The Third Madam's expression softened slightly: "Jun'er, you guys go back and rest first. Auntie will take care of things here."
Xihe nodded: "Then aunt, we will take our leave first."
As soon as he left the yard, he heard a "bang" sound from inside, followed by the concubine's begging for mercy. Xihe shook his head, but when he turned around, he saw Song Qianru and the third young master with their ears pressed against the door, eager to get into the house.
Xihe: Oh, I have such a bad temper.
The eldest and third masters of the Shen family had many children, at least four or five concubines, and had many children. However, the second master of the Shen family only had one son and one daughter, the original owner, and the third master, Shen Jianjun, and he had no concubines.
It is said that his mentor loved his wife very much, and as his favorite student, Master Shen Er followed his example.
But Xihe would rather believe that Master Shen II did not take a concubine in order to gain the respect of his mentor. After all, his mentor was the prime minister of the dynasty. If he did not have some outstanding qualities, how could he stand out?
Shen Weijun is arrogant and domineering, and has the temper of a young lady, so she has little influence.
Chen Jianjun is fat and has big ears, his mind is full of beauties... Xihe couldn't help but slap him as he watched.
Shen Jianjun almost buried his head in the plate, spit out the chicken leg, and shouted angrily: "Shen Weijun, are you crazy? You dare to hit me! I'm your brother!"
Xihe said expressionlessly: "Eat, eat, eat. You've become a pig."
Song Qianru added: "Even the pig monster is not as fat as you."
Chen Jianjun was stunned, and pointed at the two of them with trembling hands, saying "you you" for a long time, but his hand was slapped away by Xihe.
"Cuiyun, bring the mirror over here so the Third Young Master can see his dignity." Xihe's face was full of sarcasm. "You're trying to imitate others to tease the young lady, but don't you see how dignified you are? I wouldn't even be happy if you gave me money."
Cuiyun brought the mirror over, and Xihe asked her to put it right under Chen Jianjun's nose.
Chen Jianjun looked at himself in the mirror. He had puffy eyelids, a triple chin, a bulbous nose, and the golden crown on his head and the embroidered clothes on his body could not enhance his temperament in the slightest.
Xihe shook his head: "People with ability can win the hearts of girls without money, just look at yourself."
Shen Jianjun felt like he was stabbed in the heart and took a deep breath: "Si Xi told you?"
Xihe rolled his eyes. "Ha, do I even need to tell you? The news would have spread everywhere before you came back!"
Yesterday, Chen Jianjun had a fight with a scholar on the street for a brothel girl. Not only did he lose the fight, but the girl also threw herself on the scholar crying and shouting, saying that she would be with him even if he had no money.
Chen Jianjun has really lost all his dignity and is now a laughing stock.
Xihe chuckled: "Father will be back in three months. You should either use this time to lose weight and study hard, or you will be punished with a stick."
More importantly, he was so reckless as to provoke Lu'er.
That's the prince's woman, how can a useless guy like you covet her? Give up on this idea as soon as possible.
Chen Jianjun: "..."
He didn't want to lose weight, study, or be beaten, but he had no say in the family. After Xihe made the decision, Chen Jianjun was dug out of bed by the servants the next day.
Chen Jianjun was very angry: "Believe it or not, I will sell you out!"
As Si Xi dressed him, he complained, "Master, please have pity on me and let me learn for once, otherwise the Second Miss will sell us out right now, and we won't be able to see you again in the future."
Shen Jianjun was furious: “She dares!”
Go to school obediently.
Song Qianru was crouching outside the school, watching intently, when he suddenly heard a female voice behind him: "Do you want to go too?"
Song Qianru ran away quickly: "No!"
Xihe smiled and grabbed him by the back of his collar: "Where are you going?"
How does a fox cultivate? Xihe had never experienced it and didn't quite understand it, but she could easily tell whether he was cultivating well, so Song Qianru was in trouble.
"Practice well and try moving again!"
“…”
Half an hour later, Song Qianru quietly opened his eyes and was whipped on the back.
Song Qianru immediately screamed, "Ouch, ouch!" and fell to the couch, rolling on the ground: "It hurts so much, I'm going to die! You're going to beat me to death! Help!"
Xihe just watched his performance quietly, shaking the whip in his hand.
Song Qianru howled as he struggled to get out. He crawled from the house to the door, turned around and rushed out. Bang, he bumped into a wall of people and fell to the ground.
He raised his head and the sturdy servant smiled at him in a friendly manner.
Song Qianru: "..."
Xihe said slowly, "I advise you to practice diligently for the required hours, otherwise you won't be able to eat chicken tonight."
Song Qianru was shocked: "Mr. Shen Wei, do you have to be so cruel?"
Xihe glanced at him: "What do you think?"
Song Qianru was almost in tears. She actually wouldn't let him eat the chicken. What a cruel woman! However, Xihe was as hard as iron. She wasn't moved by his tears at all. Instead, she felt it stung her eyes and couldn't help but turn her head away.
There's nothing I can do about it. It's too ugly and it hurts my eyes if I look at it too much.
So, the two brothers, Shen Jianjun and Song Qianru, began to be bullied by Xihe. They wanted to resist but were suppressed harshly every time.
Shen Jianjun couldn’t bear it and went to ask Mrs. Shen Er for help.
Mrs. Shen Er's face was full of satisfaction: "Jun'er has grown up and knows how to supervise his brother. He must be rewarded well!" She stood up and went to the warehouse to pick things without even looking at Chen Jianjun.
Chen Jianjun: "..."
Good god, he works so hard to study and still gets scolded, but Shen Weijun can get rewards just by talking? Not fair!
Shen Jianjun's chest heaved heavily, and he was so angry that he was fuming.
Si Xi blinked, "Sir, you should go to training."
Shen Jianjun: "Get lost!"
Si Xi watched helplessly as his young master angrily kicked the door, then hit his foot and limped to the training ground... The martial arts master had been specifically instructed by Xi He, so he was ruthless. After the training, Shen Jianjun was like a dead dog and didn't want to move a finger, but he couldn't stay still, he had to walk around.
Shen Jianjun: He would rather be beaten.
Song Qianru also cried: Chen Er, why don’t you come back? If you come back any later, you will only see my fox corpse.
at this time,
Mr. Shen, who was far away in the capital, received a letter from home.
He touched it. Hmm? Why is it so much thicker than before?
He washed his hands, wiped them with a cloth, and then sat down at the table to open a thick stack of family letters—letters from the eldest son, the third son, the housekeeper, the wife, the daughter, the son... Hmm? Wasn't this kid very afraid of him?
He picked it up, and the last stack of letters fell out, Song Qianru.
Regular script, upright and correct.
Master Shen Er's hands trembled a little, but he quickly steadied himself, took a deep breath, and opened it.
At the beginning, the handwriting was very neat, but gradually, it became sloppy. The name that appeared most frequently was 'Shen Weijun', and the whole article was accusing the other party of crimes. Master Shen Er couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, and his eyes gradually softened.
"Chen Er, come back soon. If you don't come back, I'll be tortured to death by your daughter!"
"She is a demon!!"
"Ahhh, I won't say anymore, that damn girl is here again!"
