Shengyuan was put into confinement.
In her room filled with iron-eater toys.
The next day, she was moved to the ancestral hall for self-examination.
The reason was that her grandfather was very dissatisfied when he found out that she was being held in solitary confinement, so he went to her parents to argue with her.
When they were arguing, her grandfather said: "The children of the Sheng family are not punished by other names."
So, her mother asked her, a child of the Sheng family, to kneel to her ancestors.
For this reason, her father not only did not stop him, but also said harshly to her grandfather in relief: "You can't let us take care of the child, and you can't let the child kneel to his ancestors?!"
In the end, both sides of the fight threw up their sleeves and walked away, leaving only a mess in the air in the Shengyuan of the ancestral hall.
Go out from the back door of the grand garden of Sheng Guogong Mansion, walk through the alley to the mansion opposite, and walk all the way to the fourth courtyard. This is the place where Sheng Yuan introspects.
"Nine ladies, don't be afraid. We are guarded by guards every time we enter the courtyard, and the guards patrol." The steward who sent Shengyuan over comforted her and said, "Come to the ancestral hall, there are six more women and twelve maids here. They Take turns accompanying each other outside the door."
"Yeah!" Along the way, Shengyuan's previous depression had long been blown away by the wind, and now she was feeling energetic again.
As long as you have food and drink, where can you stay? It's okay!
"This..." The steward looked at Sheng Yuan with a troubled face, "Nine ladies, there are rules in the ancestral hall. In all cases, the children of the family come to check on themselves and only give them clean water to drink."
"!!!" Upon hearing this, Sheng Yuan's belly, which was already full, whined as if she had great foresight.
"Then, then..." Sheng Yuan wrung her fingers and asked tentatively, "How often do you clean the ancestral hall?"
The steward smiled and said, "Don't worry, Ninth Lady, we will complete the cleaning work before noon every day, and the fruits will be changed at that time."
Sheng Yuan nodded and then stepped into the ancestral hall.
"Creak." The moment the door closed, all the originally abundant light was shut out. In the huge ancestral hall, only rows of copper lamps provided the light source.
It was not the first time for Shengyuan to come here, but it was the first time to stay alone.
The spacious space is surprisingly quiet, and rows of memorial tablets for the Sheng family's ancestors are elevated above the hall, making the already empty hall look even more deserted.
[Yuan, Sister Yuan, I’m so scared! 】The system was wrapped in a quilt and trembling in Shengyuan's mind.
Shivering Sheng Yuan: "???"
"You are the system, okay?! You and I are not in the same dimension, how dare you tell me that you are scared?!"
[Who, who said that we are not afraid of the system! 】The system stuck out its head to argue with Sheng Yuan, but accidentally saw the scene in the ancestral hall, and immediately drew back its neck in fear.
"..."
After realizing that she couldn't count on the system, Sheng Yuan suddenly wasn't afraid anymore.
"Um..." Sheng Yuan walked over with small steps and bowed politely to his ancestors. He was about to introduce himself, but when he raised his head, he felt that he was too close. He was cautious. He took a few steps back.
"Hello, ancestors! I am a child of the Sheng family! Everyone must have seen me."
Sheng Yuan swallowed her saliva, holding back the sweat on her forehead, but she got back to talking.
But as soon as the conversation started, her stumbling feeling disappeared, and her words became more and more smooth. As she spoke, her nervousness completely relaxed, and her words became more eloquent.
"...Tell me, are the Yun family really stupid? They framed our Sheng family girl, but in the end they brought me to be punished!"
An hour later, Sheng Yuan was sitting on a soft cushion, holding fruit in her left hand and snacks in her right hand, accusing the Yun family.
At this point, her voice changed: "Although it is my parents who punished me, it is not their fault. I know why they are angry."
She carefully gathered the fruit core and pastry heart into the handkerchief, and while checking the hygiene, she muttered in a low voice: "They were angry that I asked to take Yundiao as my concubine, and they even took off his clothes."
Sheng Yuan, who was pouting, sat cross-legged and looked at the bronze lamp with her hands on her cheeks: "They are afraid that I will have a bad reputation and become a source of laughter for others."
"Of course, this is one aspect. Maybe they are more afraid that I will be arrogant because of my favor and become stupid and bold, causing trouble for myself when I grow up. I understand that."
She nodded in understanding and sighed as she talked to herself.
But after sighing, her momentum changed, and she raised her little hand and said, "But, I can't just be afraid of wolves in front of me and afraid of tigers in back just because I'm afraid of causing trouble for myself! A gentleman is born in this world, and he does what he wants and what he doesn't do! As long as he obeys The righteousness in the heart should be open and forthright and make a difference! If I can't even protect my own sister, how can I have the mind to die even if thousands of people die!
snort! Besides, they all say that if you don’t cut yourself with a knife, you won’t know why it hurts! I'm just trying to treat him the way he wants, letting him know what it feels like to be robbed, and see if he still dares to use this method to plot against others!
They all thought that I was acting so unscrupulously because I relied on the favor of the emperor and the queen, but I knew that was not the case... Since I wanted to pursue an official career, it was impossible for me to tie my future to favor. "
After saying a few serious words, Sheng Yuan became lively again. She patted her chest to show off to her ancestors: "We are smart people! People do things according to their age! Even the adults don't understand this. ! It’s hard to explain! It’s just a joke that the boss’s son wants to take a concubine. Who can take it seriously! Even the governor of Shuntian Prefecture doesn’t take it seriously! I just feel that I am using that guy as a toy.
This means that I have never been to the ancestral hall before. If I had been here before, I would not immediately send the cloud sculpture to Shuntianfu Yamen. I would bring it here to have a good meal first so that you can relieve your anger! "
Listening to Sheng Yuan's bragging, the hiding system made me want to cover my face, it's so difficult!
Sheng Yuan was chattering there endlessly, reviewing how the smoking he had done before was not satisfactory, and reviewing the situation at that time to see if there were any more countermeasures.
Her ancestors were not sure whether they were annoyed or not, but three of them were hiding in the ancestral hall and wanted to cover their ears.
Poor Lord Sheng Guo in the back hall has a big head.
He was afraid that the little girl would be scared, and he was worried that she was here by herself, so he wanted to stay here with her. He would take her directly back to Anhe Hall before dinner, and then send her back to Yongfan Garden at dawn to treat those cruel two people. Kouzi said that it was just a night spent in the ancestral hall.
He hid here in advance because he wanted to surprise the child.
But I never expected that this girl would stop listening to what he said after he called in!
It’s been more than an hour, aren’t you tired? !
Thinking of his grandson asking for fruit from his ancestors without treating him as an outsider, Mr. Sheng Guogong felt that this child was really tired!
Sheng Xiangxun and Zheng, who entered early from the side door of the ancestral hall, also leaned on the chairs in the side hall speechlessly.
The couple planned to wait for half an hour for her to come in before going over to talk to her.
Tell her the truth that needs to be said, tell her the reasons that need to be explained.
It's a pity that this girl continued to chat and confirmed their previous thoughts:
This kid knows everything he should know, but unfortunately, he just knows it too well!
…
Sheng Yuan looked at her grandfather and parents who suddenly walked out, and was stunned!
Although her grandfather and parents were confused when they saw each other!
Finally, as a medium for their quarrel and reconciliation, Sheng Yuan was taken out of the ancestral hall by the adults who behaved as if nothing had happened.
Looking at the bright sunshine outside, Sheng Yuan suddenly realized that freedom is so precious!
Returning to her own yard, Sheng Xiaojiu had an epiphany and discovered another door to solve the problem.
