Chapter 27 Accountability

When Zhou Muyi threw out the jade pendant, he regretted it, and when he saw that girl and illegitimate son fell into the water together, he was so frightened that he took his little niece and ran away.

He knew that according to his elder sister's temperament, if he was caught, he would definitely be beaten severely. For now, he had to find a hidden place to hide. Don't be afraid.

Zhou Muyi took Zhou Yuyan to hide in the bottom cabin where the things were stored. Usually, no one would come there. Even if people did come, they would only come to pick up things. They would usually leave after taking things, and they would not find them hiding in the corner.

Zhou Muyi was complacent about his cleverness, but Zhou Yuyan beside him was so frightened that she burst into tears, she tightly pulled Zhou Muyi's sleeve and said, "Little uncle, it's so dark here, Yan'er is scared, Yan'er wants to go home..."

As she spoke, her tears began to fall "patter", and her sobbing became louder and louder.

Zhou Muyi quickly covered the little girl's mouth, and comforted her in a low voice: "Good boy, don't cry, don't be afraid, there is a little uncle here, and the little uncle will protect you. If you are tired, go to sleep and wait until you sleep." Wake up and we'll be home."

Zhou Yuyan nodded aggrievedly, perhaps she was tired from crying, and fell asleep leaning on Zhou Muyi after a while.

Zhou Muyi breathed a sigh of relief, took off his clothes and covered Zhou Yuyan, then stared blankly at the pile of vegetables in front of him, counting the time silently, hoping that the boat would leave quickly.

Zhou Yuyan didn't sleep for a while, then woke up, looked at Zhou Muyi very wronged and said, "Little uncle, I'm hungry."

Zhou Muyi was a little embarrassed, so he could only pick out a white radish from the pile of vegetables not far away, wipe it with his sleeve, and hand it to Zhou Yuyan.

"You can eat this first, and when you get home, my uncle will bring you lotus flower cakes."

Zhou Yuyan reluctantly took the radish, took a tentative bite, and immediately spat it out again, saying with a bitter face, "It's so spicy! It doesn't taste good at all."

"Be patient, we will be able to eat delicious food when we get home." Zhou Muyi said impatiently, a little irritable.

Zhou Yuyan started making trouble again when he heard the words, Zhou Muyi was in a panic when he heard the door of the cabin opened and a group of people rushed in. Before he had time to hide, a servant had already found their hiding place.

"The third young master and young miss have been found!" The young man called out to the people behind him, and soon, a group of people surrounded Zhou Muyi and Zhou Yuyan, and hurriedly carried them out of the hold.

Zhou Muyi didn't even have time to struggle, and was brought to Zhou Hanju's room by several maidservants.

Zhou Hanyu looked at the disgraced two people in front of her, and she was very happy. She told Fu Ling beside her, "Go and bring me a stick!"

Fu Ling hesitated for a moment, gave Zhou Muyi a sympathetic look, and went out to get the stick.

Zhou Muyi was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he hurried to Zhou Mujin for help, "Brother, please save me, sister wants to beat me to death!"

Zhou Mujin felt helpless, thinking that his little brother was really spoiled by his mother, but his face was also serious, and he scolded in a low voice: "If you didn't cause a big disaster, why should your elder sister teach you?"

After scolding his younger brother, he looked at Zhou Hanyu again, still couldn't help pleading, "Hanyu, do you want to ask the matter first, I don't think Ayi and the others did it on purpose, he was naughty because he was naughty, but The nature is not bad..."

Zhou Hanyu snorted heavily, looked at Zhou Muyi and said, "Since the elder brother has begged for you, then you can tell me what's going on. If you dare to tell a lie, today is the king of heaven and I will teach you a lesson." you!"

Zhou Muyi's small body trembled, tears were about to come down, and Zhou Yuyan who was beside her was so frightened that she burst into tears, her face was covered with a lot of tears and snot.

"Sister, I did this all by myself. It has nothing to do with Yuyan. Don't scare her." Zhou Muyi still had a backbone, and said tremblingly.

"You know Yuyan is cowardly, and you still lead her to do those absurd things. How do you behave as an uncle? If you dare to lead Yuyan to do bad things in the future, I will break one of your legs first!" The white plain hand slapped the table heavily, shaking the tea cups on the table a few times.

Zhou Muyi shrank his neck, and his calves began to tremble.

"Sanqi, take the young lady down first to wash up." Zhou Hanyu breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone softened a little, before ordering another maidservant.

The maid named Sanqi immediately carried Zhou Yuyan, who was still sobbing, out of the room.

"Okay, now you can tell me exactly how you caused the two children of the Jiang family to fall into the water. You can explain it clearly to me. If there is a lie, I will break one more leg of yours!" Seeing that Zhou Hanju had scared Zhou Muyi to the point of fright, he finally got to the point.

How could Zhou Muyi dare to speak nonsense at this moment? He usually told everything that happened just now.

"Sister, I really can't blame it all on me. If the girl from the Jiang family didn't call me a dog, I wouldn't have thrown the jade pendant down in anger. It's because of their backs, why did I fall into the water..."

Zhou Muyi still couldn't help defending himself. He felt that he had been wronged. He just wanted to teach that girl who spoke rudely a little. How could he think that it almost caused a catastrophe.

"You still dare to quibble, if you hadn't provoked others first, they would have scolded you for no reason!" Zhou Hanyu scolded again, just at this time Fu Ling came back with a stick, and she went up to grab the stick and was about to throw it at Zhou Muyi call.

Zhou Muyi was so frightened that he burst into tears, and immediately ran to hide behind Zhou Mujin, wailing loudly and begging for mercy, "Eldest sister! Eldest sister! I know I was wrong, so please forgive me!"

Zhou Muyi moved quickly, and Zhou Hanyu really didn't catch him for a while. After running for a while, he became panting, pointed at Zhou Mujin and said, "Get out of the way, I must beat him up today!"

Zhou Mujin grabbed Zhou Muyi by the collar, slipped him to her, and said helplessly, "Don't run away, kid, you really got into trouble today, and I can't help you."

Zhou Muyi suddenly cried louder, dancing and trying to break free from Zhou Mujin's big hand, and kept shouting: "Help, mother, where are you! My son is going to be beaten to death by my sister!"

Zhou Hanyu became even more angry when he heard what he said, and hit his ass a few times with a stick.

Zhou Mujin saw that Zhou Hanyu was almost beaten up, and was afraid that she would really beat up his younger brother, so he quickly stopped her and said, "Hanju, stop beating, the most urgent thing at this moment is to give an explanation to the Jiang family."
