Chapter 420 Punishment
After Qin Huiyin dealt with Nalan You and sent her away, she said to Tang Luwu beside her: "After this incident, I am seriously injured and need to replenish my body. Let's have a barbecue tonight."
Tang Luwu took Qin Huiyin's arm and said, "It's really too hard. Fortunately, such banquets don't happen often, otherwise I would really collapse. Yinyin, this is more tiring than doing business."
Qin Huiyin agreed very much.
The two sisters planned to stay at home all day, take a good rest and relax their body and mind.
On the way back, the follower who served Tang Yixiao was seen walking over, and his face was full of sorrow and he looked very worried.
"Mo Yan, didn't you accompany the Second Young Master to the Imperial Hospital today?" Tang Luwu called him.
"Miss, Miss, our Second Young Master is kneeling in the ancestral hall as punishment!"
There are only a few tablets in the Tang family's ancestral hall, and it is only opened during important ancestor worship activities. Today it was opened for Tang Yixiao.
"Why?" Qin Huiyin asked, "Who made him kneel?"
Her mother? No.
Although the Tang siblings had changed their ways long ago and regarded her as their own mother, Li Taohua would never punish them no matter what mistakes they made, let alone such a harsh punishment as making them kneel in the ancestral hall.
"Young Master." Mo Yan said and left quickly.
"Brother, you are such a jerk. What did I do wrong to make him kneel in the ancestral hall? The ancestral hall is so gloomy. I have been weak since my mother's womb. I have finally recovered over the years, but I can't stand this kind of torture!" After Tang Luwu finished speaking, she hugged Qin Huiyin's arm and shook it, saying coquettishly, "Yinyin, go talk to brother and ask him to forgive me."
Qin Huiyin said unhappily: "You go and tell me, I won't go."
Tang Yichen wanted Tang Yixiao to kneel down as punishment, and the latter actually knelt down, which meant that Tang Yixiao also felt that he had done something wrong. Tang Yichen might be angry now, and he looked very scary when he was angry.
Qin Huiyin didn't dare to look for Tang Yichen, but she could look for Tang Yixiao. She rushed to the ancestral hall and saw two people guarding the door, so she climbed in through the window at the back.
Tang Yixiao, who was dozing off in the ancestral hall, heard the noise and looked up. The corners of his mouth twitched when he saw Qin Huiyin falling in from the window.
"Yinyin, how are you?" Tang Luwu asked quietly from outside, "You're not hurt, are you?"
"No, I'm in." Qin Huiyin responded, "Do you want to come in?"
Tang Luwu poked her head out of the window and saw that Qin Huiyin's new skirt was snagged. She looked down at her own new skirt and immediately gave up her original idea.
Shang Zimo squatted down and said, "Step on my shoulder to get in."
"Isn't this a bad idea?" Tang Luwu said with a red face, "I'm a little heavy."
"Miss, you are not heavy at all." Shang Zimo looked at her seriously, "Miss, just step on my shoulders. Even if there are five of you, I can still carry you."
Tang Luwu still couldn't bear to step on Shang Zimo. In the eyes of others, Shang Zimo was her follower, her attendant, and her servant, but she had long regarded him as a good friend and would talk to him about anything that was on her mind.
"Yinyin, I'll keep watch for you outside. Go ask him why your brother made me kneel down as punishment." Tang Luwu said in a low voice.
Shang Zimo directly carried Tang Luwu up.
Tang Luwu was startled and quickly hugged his neck, looking at him nervously: "Zimo, you scared me to death."
"Miss, you can come in now." Shang Zimo lowered his eyes.
"Hurry up, I'll catch you." Qin Huiyin stretched out her arms.
Tang Yi smiled: "..."
What on earth were his two sisters here for?
He was only punished to kneel and would be out soon. It was not like he was going to jail, so he did not need someone to rescue him from the execution ground.
Tang Lvwu stepped on Shang Zimo's shoulders and rushed towards Qin Huiyin. However, a pair of arms stretched out from behind and took Qin Huiyin's place to catch Tang Lvwu.
Tang Yixiao was already a tall boy, much stronger than Qin Huiyin. Tang Luwu fell into his arms, and his body was very stable, without even a sway.
"Two ladies, what are you doing now?" Tang Yi smiled and shook his arms.
"We heard that big brother asked you to kneel as punishment, so we wanted to see you. How did you anger big brother so much that this decoration of the ancestral hall would be put to use?" Qin Huiyin asked.
Tang Yi laughed twice, rolled his eyes, returned to his previous position and knelt down: "You know this matter better than anyone else, and you still have the nerve to ask me."
"Is it related to me?" Qin Huiyin asked, "What is it? Tell me quickly."
"Big brother found out about you going to the flower boat to listen to music." Tang Yi smiled and looked at her resentfully, "Big brother couldn't bear to punish you, so of course he punished me. He said I didn't stop you from making trouble, and that place was full of smoky smells. As a younger brother, I actually took my sister to that kind of place. It's simply immoral."
"So it's because of that incident." Qin Huiyin felt guilty. "Xiao brother, calm down. I've caused you trouble. How do you want me to compensate you?"
Tang Yi smiled and raised his finger: "Give me three jars of your newly brewed wine, no, five jars. My new master is a drunkard and likes to drink. I think he has taught me for so long, but I have never shown him filial piety."
"No problem, you can have as much as you want." Qin Huiyin promised generously. "I will go to my eldest brother and ask him to let you out."
"Please don't. I was punished to kneel because of what happened to you. If you go to beg for mercy, he will think that he can be released just by begging for mercy. We will definitely make the same mistake again next time. Not only will he not release me, but he will also increase my punishment. My dear sister, please be kind and stop making things worse. Now you don't have to do anything. Just make some delicious food and drinks for me to replenish my body when I come out."
"We're having a barbecue tonight. When you come out, just eat what's ready and we'll grill it for you."
Tang Luwu nodded beside her.
There was a voice coming from outside, and it sounded like Tang Yichen was coming. When the two sisters heard the voice, they immediately went out of the window.
When Tang Luwu jumped out, Shang Zimo caught her steadily.
She turned around and saw Qin Huiyin jumping down, and said to Shang Zimo, "Go and catch her."
Shang Zimo didn't move.
Zhilan caught it nearby, and both the master and servant fell to the ground.
Qin Huiyin got up and said to Tang Luwu, "Let's go."
Tang Yichen pushed open the door of the ancestral hall and walked in. He looked around and his eyes rested on the open window.
He raised the corner of his mouth, glanced at Tang Yi and smiled, and said, "I only made you kneel for half an hour, and they felt bad. It seems that making you kneel as punishment is useful. The next time they make a mistake, they will consider the consequences."
Tang Yi smiled: "...Brother, I am the chicken you kill to scare the monkeys."
"Will you dare to do it again next time?" Tang Yichen said indifferently.
"I won't dare to do that again. Next time I will definitely persuade my second sister not to go to those filthy places." Tang Yi smiled and reflected on the past very tactfully.
