Jiang Shu held his chin and was thinking about what conditions to offer, when Huo Chong came in in a hurry.
"Master Hou, the young master is missing."
Shen Changze stood up suddenly and walked out with Huo Chong.
Jiang Shu came to his senses in shock and followed him.
The young man in gray clothes who was waiting for Yan Yang stood in the courtyard with a flustered and anxious expression. When he saw Shen Changze coming downstairs, he knelt down in fear.
"What's going on? Isn't Yan Yang in school? Why is he missing?" Shen Changze asked.
The young man said in fear: "I don't know, either. Every morning after the young master enters the school, the young man waits in the outer courtyard for the young master to finish school. It's the same today."
"But during the lunch break, Master Meng was very angry and said to the villain that if the young master doesn't go to class, he won't have to go to class in the future."
"Yan Yang is playing hooky?" Shen Changze frowned with anger on his face.
The boy nodded.
"Where are the others?"
The boy trembled and said, "Young Master...Young Master is missing."
"Speak clearly!" Shen Changze shouted coldly.
The boy trembled with fright, and said as if he was pouring beans from a bamboo tube: "Master Meng said that he has not seen the young master for three days, but the young man saw the young master entering the school with his own eyes every day, and stayed in the outer courtyard until he came out. "
"After discovering that the young master was missing, Master Meng ordered people to search the school, but no trace of the young master was found."
"Are you sure Yan Yang has not left school?" Shen Changze asked with a frown.
The boy nodded affirmatively: "Except for going to and from school, the door of the school is always locked, so it is impossible for the young master to go out."
He is not in the school and has not gone out. Where has Yan Yang gone?
"Don't make any announcement about this beforehand, especially don't let Madam know about it." After Shen Changze ordered, he quickly left with Huo Chong.
Jiang Shu returned to the house, shaking his fan and feeling confused.
She also couldn't figure out where Yan Yang had gone.
The Shen family's genealogy school is located in a courtyard next to the Shen family. This courtyard is quiet and quiet, with green mountains at its back. It is a good place to study.
Shen Changze walked around the courtyard and confirmed that the courtyard wall was so high that Yan Yang could not climb out, and there was only one entrance and exit: the gate.
"Master Hou, this wall is loose." Huo Chong suddenly said.
Shen Changze heard the sound and went over, and saw a few loose bricks on the wall behind the flowers, and they fell off with a gentle push.
A one-foot-square hole is enough for a five-year-old child to crawl through.
Shen Changze used Qing Kung Fu to climb over the wall, and Huo Chong followed.
There was dust under the wall and there were signs of crawling.
After inspection, Huo Chong said: "The young master is very smart. After coming out of the cave, he backfilled the bricks and stones, so it is difficult to find."
It's a pity that his cleverness was used in the wrong place.
Shen Changze had a stern face, raised his eyes and looked around, guessing where Yan Yang would go.
This is the intersection of several alleys, two leading to the street and one leading to the back mountain.
Shen Changze walked towards the alley leading to the back mountain.
"Come on, come on, come after me."
"I caught a fish..."
In the slowly flowing river at the foot of the mountain, a group of children were playing in the water.
Shen Changze glanced around and saw Yan Yang under the shade of a tree.
He didn't know how to swim and didn't dare to go into deep water. He sat in the shallow water and looked enviously at the children swimming and catching fish.
"Master." Huo Chong called.
Yan Yang turned around and saw Shen Changze's face filled with panic and subconsciously ran towards the river.
"Yan Yang." Shen Changze shouted and ran towards the river.
However, Yan Yang was like a frightened little animal at this time, and kept swimming towards the middle of the river, and soon reached the deep water area.
But he didn't know how to swim, so he flopped a few times and sank.
"Master!" Huo Chong broke out in a cold sweat, jumped into the river as fast as he could, and fished Yan Yang up.
"Ahem..." Yan Yang choked on his water, his face turned red from coughing.
Shen Changze's face turned livid, and he squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "Go home."
Yan Yang turned around, looked at the children still playing freely in the river, and shed tears of despair.
Shen Changze brought Yan Yang back to his home, intending to teach him a lesson so as not to disturb Cheng Jinchu, but no matter how much he scolded him, Yan Yang refused to go to school.
Shen Changze was so angry that he used his own method to spread Yan Yang's buttocks.
"Do you want to study or not?" Shen Changze asked after typing.
Yan Yang's buttocks were already red from being spanked, but he still hugged the wooden bench and gritted his teeth stubbornly: "I won't read."
"Pah!" Shen Changze raised his hand and clicked again.
The bamboo board two fingers wide hit the bare buttocks so painfully that the person shivered.
Yan Yang's face turned red in pain and he cried hoarsely.
"Stop, stop!"
Mrs. Shen and Mother Shen, who came after hearing the news, saw Shen Changze raising his hand again outside the hall and hurriedly stopped.
"Grandma, mother, why are you here?" Shen Changze's face was tense, and his anger was hard to go away.
The two ignored him and immediately checked Yan Yang's injuries.
When she saw Yan Yang's buttocks being spread open, she was shaking in pain and sweating continuously. Mrs. Shen's distressed eyes were red, and she pointed angrily at Shen Changze and cursed: "Are you going to beat him to death? He is your eldest son. !”
What is the eldest son? He is the future of the Hou family!
"It is precisely because he is the eldest son that I must strictly discipline him to prevent him from growing up to be a mediocre person." Shen Changze spoke harshly and refused to give in.
Mother Shen held Yan Yang and wiped her tears and said, "He should be disciplined if he disobeys, but you can't be too impatient. If you really want to beat him up, it will be too late to regret it."
"Yan Yang, quickly admit your mistake to your father and tell him that you will study hard." Shen's mother coaxed Yan Yang.
Yan Yang's teeth chattered in pain, but he was very determined: "No, I don't want to study, grandma, I don't study."
Hearing this, Mother Shen and Mrs. Shen were choked and speechless.
It is true that they feel sorry for their grandson, but how can they not study when they are the legitimate sons of the Marquis Mansion?
"Grandma, mother, you also heard it. He knows no wrong, but should he be disciplined?" Shen Changze tightened his hands on the family law, and his chest heaved with anger.
Mrs. Shen sighed helplessly and compromised: "He has been injured by you. Even if he wants to be punished, he should find a method that does not hurt him."
"What should I do according to my grandmother's opinion?" Shen Changze handed the family law to Huo Chong.
Mrs. Shen thought deeply: "Let him kneel down first and call Jinchu and Shuer to discuss it together."
"Jinchu is emotionally unstable. If she is informed, she may have fetal irritation." Mother Shen was a little worried.
Mrs. Shen glared at her and said, "With such a commotion, do you think you can still hide it?"
Mother Shen stopped talking.
Yan Yang was kneeling in the hall, while Shen Changze and others were sitting, waiting for Jiang Shu and Cheng Jinchu.
"Yan Yang, Yan Yang." After a while, Cheng Jinchu came in a hurry.
"Madam, please slow down and be careful of the threshold." The maid supporting Cheng Jinchu reminded in a low voice.
When Cheng Jinchu entered the room, he saw Yan Yang kneeling on the ground and rushed towards him.
"Let me see your injury."
She heard from her servants that Yan Yang was punished by the family for playing truant, and his buttocks were even injured.
"Madam." Huo Chong saluted Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu stepped into the hall, and Mrs. Shen took the opportunity to say: "Jinchu, sit down first, Yan Yang's injury is not serious."
She was afraid that when Cheng Jinchu saw Yan Yang's injury, he would get pregnant and get pregnant.
Cheng Jinchu, who was originally losing his temper, calmed down when he saw Jiang Shu, and was helped by his maid to sit down.
She couldn't let Jiang Shu see the joke.
