Chapter 389 Sima Lian Receives Punishment

In order for my daughter to have a long memory and understand the seriousness of the situation.

Sima Ao punished his daughter (Sima Lian) by shutting down the woodshed for a day without giving him food.

"Nothing happened to Shiliu. Has this punishment for my daughter passed?"

Jiang Min wanted to plead for her daughter, but was reprimanded by Sima Ao. "Didn't you understand what I said? I punished her only because of this incident. Look at your daughter, whether she is standing or sitting, she is hanging around all day, just like a boy. Don't teach her any more. , who would dare to marry her in the future?"

Jiang Min has long been aware of her daughter's point, and persuaded her daughter earnestly to change her bad temper.

This daughter just can't learn, she obeys orders carefully, smiles without showing her teeth, and grows lotus every step of the way...

Jiang Min didn't understand that she was a lady of every family; why didn't her daughter look like herself?

.....................

Houwa believes that he is also responsible for running away on Shiliu, so he takes the initiative to accept the punishment from Sima Ao.

Sima Ao glanced at Houwa, and said with a bit of disappointment: "You are indeed responsible, and you were hired only if you didn't do what you can."

"Employment based on ability" means: I know that my junior sister (Si Malian) is sloppy in work, has a fickle temper (impatient), and is not suitable to be a teacher.Everyone knows this about junior sister, and you, as a senior brother, naturally know it too. You still have to arrange for junior sister to take over as a substitute teacher, that's really your fault.

Sima Ao also punished Houwa to close the firewood room and not give him food for a day.

"I'm really willing to put my daughter in the firewood room. Daddy doesn't love me at all!"

Although Sima Lian was often punished by his father, but it was the first time for Guan Chaifang, and he felt somewhat resentful and unconvinced in his heart.

It was also the first time for Houwa to close the firewood room, so he seemed very calm.

"Junior sister, I think the teacher punishes you because he loves you. It would be great if I could have such a father!" Houwa said enviously.

"You said that because you don't have a father. You don't know how strict my father is to me? I, Li Chang, and Fatty made mistakes at the same time. My father was the first to be punished, and I was the first to be punished."

Indeed, because I don't have it, I long to have it!
Sima Lian's sentence, "You said that because you don't have a father", seems to be nothing wrong with it, but it is a fatal pain for the monkey boy.

Houwa fell silent.

Sima Lian realized that she had said something wrong. "Sorry, I didn't mean to."

Seeing that Master Monkey didn't speak, Sima Lian also stopped talking.

The two sat against the wall, looking at the dilapidated, dark woodshed full of dry firewood, and did not speak for a long time.

After a long time, Sima Lian couldn't help but apologize to Houwa.

"Brother Monkey, I'm sorry, I got you into trouble."

Houwa smiled faintly, and said: I accepted the punishment voluntarily, so don't worry about it.

"Voluntarily accepted the punishment, why?" Sima Lian didn't understand.

The monkey boy said: "I have always wondered why a man as talented and knowledgeable as my husband, who has a heart for the world, doesn't become an official in the court and live a poor life in seclusion in the mountains?"

"Are you talking about my dad?"

"Who says my father has never been an official? My Sima family is a family of officials. My father used to be the imperial envoy of Zuodu, holding an army of [-] troops." At this point, Sima Lian paused sadly, and continued: " It was only later that he was framed by a treacherous villain and demoted to a historian, and later resigned because he was tired of the intrigues in the officialdom."

Houwa was shocked and said: "It turns out that the teacher is so powerful, no wonder he always gives me a profound feeling."

Houwa felt lucky to meet the teacher.

"of course!"

Sima Lian, who was still angry at being punished for being locked up in the firewood room, was also very proud of having such a father at this time.

………………

I don't know what time it is, Sima Lian and Houwa just feel that they have been in the woodshed for a long time!

creak...

The door of the firewood room was pushed open little by little, and a sneaky figure came in.

Sima Lian and Houwa fixed their eyes and saw that it was Fat Ya and Li Changshou.

Fat Ya brought some food to Sima Lian and Houwa.

Li Changshou was watching the wind outside the door.

"You must be hungry, right? I brought you some buns, rice porridge, and chicken legs. I dare not take too much, for fear of being discovered by the dean." When she said that, Fat Ya didn't forget to ask for a chicken leg for herself.

Seeing Sima Lian and Houwa staring at her in a daze, Fatty explained awkwardly: "I didn't even eat because I was just trying to get you something to eat."

Sima Lian and Houwa stared at each other with a blank smile, instead of blaming Fatty, they asked Fatty to eat more.

"It's alright, hurry up!"

"Okay! Alright!" Li Changshou, who was in charge of the lookout, urged.

The fat girl came out with a bun in her hand and a chicken leg in her mouth.

"Didn't you give them food, why did you eat it yourself?" Li Changshou shook his head and looked at Fatty.

Fat Ya explained aggrievedly: "I was so focused on stealing that I forgot to eat."

Li Changshou gave Fat Ya a blank look.

Not long after Fatty and Li Changshou left, the door of the firewood room was gently opened again.

Who is it?
Fat girl and Li Changshou are back again?

Sima Lian and Hou Pang were stunned, and they were even more dumbfounded when they saw the person.

mother!
Mistress!

"You two must be hungry, mother is here to bring you food." Jiang Min said in a low voice.

When Sima Lian learned that her mother gave her food without telling her father, she felt sad, and went into her mother's arms, Jiang Min, and said coquettishly, "Mother still loves me!"

"Don't think about it, your father loves you very much, but the way of loving you is different from your mother's." Jiang Min told his daughter Sima Lian not to question her father's love.

Sima Lian curled her lips and did not reply.

Seeing that her daughter was silent, Jiang Min shook her head, meaning that the father and daughter were alike, stubborn.

Jiang Min took out a plate of braised fish, a bowl of egg drop soup, and two bowls of white rice from the basket.

"Wow, delicious grilled fish! Mom, have you entered the city?"

Sima Lian and Houwa were drooling looking at the delicious roasted fish.

"The village head's fishing pond has fish, so he brought us some. These eggs are also given by the villagers." Speaking of this, Jiang Min looked at her daughter dotingly, and said distressedly: "Mother knows you like to eat, I'll make some for you. You are hungry, eat quickly!" After speaking, Jiang Min served the rice to her daughter and the monkey boy.

When Houwa took the rice, he said thank you, Mrs.

Jiang Min raised Houwa as his own son from the bottom of his heart, and then he found that Houwa was a good match for his daughter.

"Don't say these polite words, come and eat more." Jiang Min asked her daughter for chopsticks, and picked up a big fish for Houwa.

"The village chief and the villagers are really good. They always send us things." Sima Lian is a person who knows how to be grateful. He eats fish and still talks about the kindness of the villagers.

"That's right! Every festival, the villagers will send some food and use it. Maybe it's thanks to your father's favor!" Jiang Min said.

"Mother, you boiled the fish for us, and there was one fish missing, so dad knew you gave us something to eat?" Hearing his mother mentioning his father, Sima Lian remembered this incident.

"Yes, teacher's wife!"

Houwa was worried that his wife would be involved, so he stopped the bowl tightly.

"Actually, it was your father who cooked it and asked me to bring it to you without telling you. Your father loves you in his heart." Jiang Min sighed, not hiding it anymore.
