Chapter 6 Penalty
The more Shen Tu remained silent, the more Qi Shilang became angry. He pointed at Shen Tu's hand and trembled with anger, "Why did our Qi family have something like you? Last time I thought that you fell into the water and you were not punished." You, I didn't expect you to be so ignorant, dragging your second sister into the water again and again, if you don't punish you severely this time, how can you give your second sister an explanation."

"Yu Cai, give her twenty slaps, and then lock her into the ancestral hall and make her kneel." After Qi Shilang finished speaking, he looked at Mrs. Qi on the left, lowered his voice, and said respectfully, "Mother, look at this Punishment possible?"

Madam Qi gave a faint "hmm" and said, "You can make up your own mind about how to educate your children. I, as a grandmother, don't have to worry about it."

"Yes, mother." Qi Shilang replied respectfully.

After Shen Tu actually took twenty boards, he immediately went to kneel in the ancestral hall, but he passed out from the pain before kneeling for two hours.

When I woke up again, it was already a day later.

She was lying on the soft bed, her back seemed to be split open, and the pain was severe.

With a slight movement, the wound was torn, and she inhaled in pain.

Just when she was about to call for someone, Qiqiao opened the door and came in.

Seeing that Shen Tuo woke up, Qiqiao hurriedly put down the things in her hands, walked to the side of Ruantao, and asked with red eyes, "Miss, does it hurt?"

She moved her arm that was numb from the pillow, and replied, "It's okay."

"Miss lied," Qi Qiao raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes indiscriminately, "Then Yu Cai is too cruel, how could he beat Miss like this with such force."

Seeing that the little maid was crying so much, Shen Tu had no choice but to change the subject, "Didn't I kneel in the ancestral hall?"

"Miss passed out in the ancestral hall, and the master said... he said that he would go to the ancestral hall for punishment when she recovered." Qi Qiao replied with sobs.

After Shen Tu said "um", he didn't make another sound.

According to Yucai's physique, the twenty boards probably only used three to four percent of his strength, but only three to four percent of his strength was enough for her to bear.

The board was also hit, but the soul couldn't be exchanged back. She wondered how she could do this loss-making business all her life.

Forget it, forget it, my head hurts, but my butt hurts even more.

This dead Yu Cai, he couldn't be more sloppy when he started, and he couldn't even act.

In a daze, she felt the coldness on her back, accompanied by bursts of stinging pain, her closed eyelids slightly opened a gap, it turned out that Qiqiao was applying ointment to her wound.

Unable to resist the drowsiness coming from the turbulence, the eyelids stuck together again.

When the wound finally healed and the pain didn't hurt so much, Shen Tu went to the ancestral hall and continued to kneel in front of the tablets of the Qi family's ancestors.

Yu Cai came to the ancestral hall at Xu time on the third day, and conveyed Qi Shilang's words: the punishment of kneeling will end here, and remember not to do it again.

With Qiqiao's support, she went back to her room and slept for ten hours.

When I woke up, it was the You hour of the next day.

Under the eaves of the corridor, Qiqiao hurriedly rushed the road with the freshly brewed concoction. The feather-like snow was flying chaotically in the dark night, and she didn't know when it would stop.

This year, the snow fell heavily and frequently.

On the soft slump, Shen Tu leaned on his arms and looked towards the half-opened window, only to find that it was snowing again, and a thick layer of white snow had accumulated on the opposite porch eaves.

There was a soft "squeak", and it was Qiqiao who carefully pushed the door in with the medicine bowl in hand.

"Miss, drink this medicine quickly."

"Bitter." Seeing the dark concoction, Shen Cu couldn't help frowning.

"Knowing that Miss thinks it's bitter, I specially brought a plate of candied fruit here." Qiqiao put the white plate with candied fruit on the table.

The medicine was too bitter, and the candied fruit couldn't resist the astringency on the tip of the tongue and in the mouth. Frowning heavily, he swallowed the remaining soup in the bowl.

After rinsing her mouth, Qiqiao applied some medicine to her wound.

As the night deepened, the heavy snow was still falling, falling on the stepping stones in the courtyard and on the plum blossom branches by the lake.

-

The next day, the heavy snow finally stopped.

Xiao House.

In the courtyard, Xiao Shilian looked at the pond that had already been covered with a thick layer of ice in a daze, and he didn't notice Xiao Shili approaching him.

"Big brother."

"Shi Li," Xiao Shilian turned around upon hearing the sound, and looked at the person who came, "You haven't recovered from the cold yet, why did you come out without wearing thicker clothes?"

"It's fine, I'm already much better." Xiao Shili stepped up the stone steps and stood side by side with Xiao Shilian.

"Qin Sa, go and get a cloak." Xiao Shilian said to the man standing behind him on the right.

"When this winter is over, elder brother will get married." After saying this, Xiao Shili slowly turned his head and asked, "Elder brother—are you ready?"

"What if you're not ready?"

Suddenly there was a muffled sound beside the ear. It turned out that the snow had slid down from the eaves, and both of them were attracted by the sound.

"If elder brother doesn't want to, you can tell dad, dad..."

"I'm not unwilling." Xiao Shilian seemed to think of something, the corners of his mouth curled up, "She is a very special girl."

Xiao Shilian recalled that the first time he saw her was at the Plum Blossom Appreciation Banquet at Duke Mu's Mansion last year. She was wearing a light blue skirt and sitting quietly beside Mrs. Qi. That time, she There doesn't seem to be anything special about her, just like all ladies from official families, she is quiet and ladylike.

The second time, she took the little maid to go to Zuihualou disguised as a man, and happened to bump into him who was looking for the fourth brother.

Although she stuck two black beards under her nose, he could tell at a glance, how could a man have such a slender figure.

He seldom goes to this kind of fireworks place, but the fourth younger brother loves this kind of place very much. There was a banquet at home that day, and he went out to find the fourth younger brother Xiao Shiyu. Something made the corners of her unhappy mouth gradually rise into a smile.

He could see that he had forgotten the important thing to come here.

Later, they met many times, and he had never seen any girl who could be so bold.

Zhishu Dali seems to do it sometimes, but when she is with him, she always doesn't stick to these etiquettes.

Later, she said she liked him and asked him if he would be her husband.

He was so surprised that he almost bit his tongue. He had never heard of any girl who would express her love to a man so straightforwardly.

"Don't you want to?" Maybe he didn't answer her in time, and she was a little disappointed.

"No." he said.

"Then you are willing?" She seemed to be happy again.

He wondered that she wasn't shy. Although his family didn't have a younger sister, all the girls would cover their faces and shy when talking about the men they liked.

She can always surprise him, even surprise him.

"Then I'll go back and tell my dad and grandma." She seemed impatient to marry him.

"Brother," Xiao Shili called again seeing that he didn't respond, "Brother?"

Xiao Shilian came back to his senses, "Huh?"
