Ye Sheng walked between Shen Zhicheng and Chu Jingyi, blocking Chu Jingyi's view of Ruan Ruan.
The atmosphere cooled down, and even the smell of gunpowder rekindled.
"Wang - Wang - Wang -"
suddenly three dog barks came, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a large dog house standing in the corner of the wall.
"Wang~wang~wang~" Ruan Ruan got up and started barking like a dog.
"I don't remember that the general's mansion has dogs?" Shen Zhicheng felt strange, because it had only been less than a year since he moved to the general's mansion, and he hadn't gotten a few puppies to raise yet.
"You two, stop arguing, Chu Jingyi. Since there is a dog barking, I don't have to imitate a dog!"
"Yes." Chu Jingyi nodded, knowing that Shen Zhicheng was trying to get out of the way for him.
Now that he has the opportunity, he must seize it.
This time for the first time, he learned.
Ye Sheng didn't say anything, but looked ugly.
Shen Zhicheng held Ruan Ruan and walked toward the dog house, followed by Chu Jingyi.
Ye Sheng stayed where he was, but looked at the dog house.
"Who's in there? Come out quickly." Shen Zhicheng stood in front of the dog house with a cold face and saw four shoes inside.
"Fifth Young Master, don't be angry, we will come out right away." A boy's voice came from the dog house.
The next second a little boy crawled out, about six or seven years old.
There is a smaller boy behind him.
Shen Zhicheng was stunned and had a straight face for the next second. "Who are you? How come I haven't seen you before?"
Although the two little boys were wearing the clothes of servants of the General's Mansion, he had no impression of them at all.
Even if the family gave birth to a child, it would be impossible for them to have no place to live and the treatment to be so poor.
Chu Jingyi was so curious that she had never seen anyone living in a dog house. How great!
The next time he teases someone, let them live in a dog house instead of crawling into a dog hole.
"Fifth Young Master, please forgive us. We really didn't mean to live in the dog house..." The little boy knelt down and kowtowed, feeling ashamed and scared.
"I ask who you are." Shen Zhicheng repeated.
"We are..." The little boy raised his head to look at Shen Zhicheng, then lowered his head.
"We are beggars. We came to the back door of the General's Mansion to beg for food a few days ago... A young man saw how pitiful we were, so he let us live in a dog house..."
"Fifth Young Master, my brother and I were too hungry and cold, so... you can Hit us and scold us, don't punish that little brother, we are willing to be punished."
After learning about the consequences of rape, Shen Zhicheng was a little angry. A servant should not let strangers into the house at will, let alone make decisions without authorization.
Chu Jingyi also thought of this and stepped on the back of the little boy's hand. "You and that servant are waiting to be punished!"
The little boy held back from screaming. He raised his head and said seriously: "Please let the young man go and let me be punished. He also pities me. Doing good deeds shouldn't end badly."
Just now, his brother barked like a dog, and he didn't cover his mouth in time, but he didn't blame him.
Everything is fate.
Shen Zhicheng looked coldly and asked again: "Why did you bark like a dog just now?"
He saw that the dog house was very clean, and the anger in his heart dissipated. Plus, the little beggar barks like a dog to help him solve a little trouble.
The little boy hesitated for a moment, then an idea flashed in his mind, and he answered seriously: "Little man... Hearing the conflict between several young masters, he thought that as long as whoever learns to bark like a dog, the conflict can be resolved. The little boy couldn't hold it back for a moment..." "Aren't you afraid of being discovered by me? Will I kick you out?" The corners of Shen Zhicheng's mouth raised.
"I'm afraid, but compared to this, I think helping the young master is the most important thing. I took my brother to live in the General's Mansion for a few days to escape the cold and survive. The food he ate was provided by the General's Mansion, and the clothes he wore were also provided by the General's Mansion. Thank you
for the care of the general and his wife. Without the general's mansion, there would be no villain and younger brother. I am very grateful and hope that I can be a cow and a horse for the general, his wife and the young masters in this life. "
The little boy kept kneeling. There is still a thick layer of snow on the ground.
"You're very sharp-tongued." Shen Zhicheng saw that the little boy's knees were constantly touching the cold snow. He was obviously uncomfortable, but he didn't say a word.
Seeing the sudden change in Shen Zhicheng's attitude, Chu Jingyi immediately advised: "Xiao Chengzi, don't be soft-hearted. You must severely punish these beggars and cheating servants, otherwise those servants will not listen to your orders in the future."
Shen Zhicheng After thinking for a while, he nodded towards Chu Jingyi. "I understand, I can't let that servant off easily."
Just then a servant came over, knelt down in front of Shen Zhicheng, and kowtowed several times.
"Fifth Young Master, it's all the villain's fault. I let them in. Please punish the villain."
"Did you do it?"
"Yes, the villain is willing to accept the punishment."
"Okay! I will punish you . You will be slapped ten times, and you will be assigned to clean the urinal and work in the court room. After half a year, you will be assigned to other positions. Will you accept the penalty for three months?"
Shen Zhicheng thought this punishment was very serious.
"Villain uniform." The servant nodded.
"Brother Adang—" The little boy raised his head and looked at Adang guiltily. He moved his knees and knelt at Shen Zhicheng's feet, kowtow several times.
"Please Fifth Young Master, please punish the villain! It's all the villain's fault and it has nothing to do with Brother Adang. I beg Fifth Young Master to let me clean the urinal for Brother Adang. This villain is willing to do anything."
Shen Zhicheng has one head and two heads . Da, he is really not good at dealing with these things. It would be nice if the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother were here.
"Hehehehe...wang~wang~" Ruan Ruan is so addicted to barking like a dog that he keeps playing.
[Fifth brother, if you drive these two brothers out, they will starve to death in less than half a month. Why not sell the favor just now and leave them in the house to sign a deed of prostitution.
After all, someone helped you bark three times. Are you willing to help others? ]
Shen Zhicheng was speechless. Could my sister stop mentioning how to bark like a dog? He is a man.
"Since you are willing, then you and your brother will stay and sign a living contract, and you will be asked to clean the palace for half a year. If you perform well, you will be transferred to another job. In
these six months, you will only be provided with food and clothing, and no money will be given to you. Do you accept it? "
It's normal to not give them money. No one will buy children who are only five or six years old to work."
Even if they do work, how much work can a child of how old do?
"I accept it, I am willing. Thank you, Fifth Young Master." The little boy took his younger brother and kowtowed again.
"Raise your head, let me take a closer look at you, and tell me your identities."
"Yes, my name is Wang Daniu, my brother Wang Dayu, my parents died of illness last month, my relatives robbed my house, and they also We drove them out and wandered all the way to the capital."
Wang Daniu shed tears as he spoke.
It made Shen Zhicheng very sad. Children who lost their parents would find it difficult to live and grow up, let alone a happy life.
Chu Jingyi was a little unhappy. Shen Zhicheng wanted to leave two beggars behind. This behavior was too dangerous.
"Xiao Chengzi, you'd better tell your parents about this kind of thing and investigate their identities before making any plans."
"Okay."
