novelOld Man Xian's Punishment II
| ← Ch.244 | Ch.246 → |
"No."
"Hmm?"
"Absolutely not!"
Jiang Ruolan stood there stiffly and tried to move her legs as the Old Man turned his head away from her, but suddenly the Old Man's ruler slapped her leg.
"What are you trying to do? Stand up straight! There are another thirty more minutes!"
"Grandpa ..." Jiang Ruolan was subdued and wanted to beg for mercy.
"Don't act coquettishly to this Old Man! I only teach you how to stand properly! What's with all the attitude?!"
Jiang Ruolan stood there sulkily and obediently.
The Old Man looked at her before standing up and walking over with the ruler. He lightly patted her leg with the ruler, "Legs, straighten up!"
"Arms, tighten, hands, where are you putting them? Stick to the side of your legs! Puffing out your chest, look up!" The Old Man used the ruler to lift Jiang Ruolan's chin.
Jiang Ruolan had never experienced such a strict military stance. Back in her high school, no matter how rigorous her military training was, she never reached this level. Now, she was like a block of wood, not daring to move at all.
"You youngsters are too used to wandering around! If I don't give you a lesson, you really don't know what it means to have authority in this country!"
Jiang Ruolan pursed her lips and muttered under her breath, "Grandfather, what era is this? Can't a violent revolution solve society's problems? It will not even be able to help solve family problems."
"You dare to talk back?" Old Man stared at Jiang Ruolan sternly.
"I don't dare!" She quickly shut her mouth and looked seriously at the Old Man, determined that no matter what he said or how hard he criticized her, she would carefully accepting his teachings and not tell him about her grievances.
"Spoiled girl, this Old Man knows that you are clever! But you little girl, don't think you can become my elephant just by sticking two scallions in your nose!"
What kind of description was this?
"No, no. Grandpa, I'm actually quite a fool. When I was in university, I accidentally made six plus seven equal to fifteen, and it became a huge joke in the department." Jiang Ruolan said this with incomparable honesty.
Old Man Xian immediately glared at her for a long time. Finally, he asked in a skeptical tone."Aren't six plus seven equal to fifteen?"
Jiang Ruolan: "..."
'Grandpa, I don't know how to answer that question! If I answered that you were wrong, you would glare at me and I told you were right, you would call me a kiss ass girl. Grandpa, tell me what you want me to say about you. '
At this moment, the door to the study room was pushed open, but no one entered. Lowering her head, Jiang Ruolan saw a black dog casually walking in. Judging from the dog's attitude, it looked like it came to watch the show.
Jiang Ruolan was standing in a military stance! She was so embarrassed and decided to shift her grievance to the black dog. The dog and the man continued to stare at each other. The Old Man spoke, "Chaoxiang, watch her. If she moves, you bark twice."
While Jiang Ruolan was in shock, Chaoxiang immediately made two "woof woof" sounds, implying that it had already received the order and will immediately carry it out.
As expected of a military dog!
The Old Man looked back at Jiang Ruolan again before he walked out with his walking stick, one step at a time.
In an instant, only Jiang Ruolan and the old enemy named Chaoxiang were left in the study room!
This dog's eyes were still as vicious as before. From its gaze, it was obvious that it did not want to welcome her! Chaoxiang walked over to Jiang Ruolan on all fours, circled around her twice, climbed onto the carpet at the foot of the desk, and continued to stare at her.
Jiang Ruolan also took this opportunity to sized it up and wondered if it had a good temper. If it is, then she needed to change the tactics.
Of course, she only thought about it but not doing it. Under normal circumstances, she might continue to try to curry favor with it the way she did last time. But not this time. Dogs and wolves had the same animal nature, so she needed a more efficient method to deal with it.
This was not something that could be done in front of anyone in the Xian Family, so Jiang Ruolan decided to ignore the dog, stood at her original spot with her eyes closed while she rested.
The study room door opened again, and Xian Zihao went inside to check on her condition. Jiang Ruolan quickly whimpered and cried in her husband's arms, feeling wronged, "Hubby, my legs hurt... Back pain... My legs also numb."
Xian Zihao did not know whether to laugh or cry."I knew that the Old Man threw you here to punish you. Are you tired?" As he spoke, he helped her massage her waist and helped her out of the study.
Chaoxiang was eating its food when it smelled Xian Zihao's scent. It hurried over and licked his pants.
'Go! Don't you see who you're licking?'
Jiang Ruolan's leg immediately stopped hurting. She pulled her husband away from that stinky dog.
"Where's grandpa? You brought me out of the study without his permission. He's going to punish me to stand for another two hours." Jiang Ruolan asked in a low voice.
"The moment he went downstairs, he sat on the reclining chair and listened to the audiotape. As he did that, he fell asleep." Xian Zihao chuckled.
Jiang Ruolan immediately glared at him, "Did you know, he called me a monkey? And not only that, he let me stand there in a military posture for an hour! While I'm crying in grievance, he had nerved gone downstairs to sleep?"
"He was just too infuriated. He knew that no matter what he did, Cui Luixian will not be able to be his granddaughter-in-law. He wanted to give you some face, that's why he did that. I took advantage of the fact that he's sleeping soundly and hurriedly rescued you. Otherwise, if you stand for too long, you won't be able to walk." Xian Zihao helped Jiang Ruolan into their bedroom.
Xian Zihao accompanied Jiang Ruolan to rest for a while. As Xian Zihao went to settle a matter, Jiang Ruolan quickly got up and walked around the room, looking for a weapon before stepping out of the bedroom. She ran to the study door and saw Chaoxiang still lying down.
Jiang Ruolan chuckled as she strode over.
This stinky dog didn't have eyes in the back of its head, so it couldn't see a weapon in Jiang Ruolan's hands. It just barked at her as she held the 'weapon' in both her hands, laughing so hard that her eyes bloomed.
'It was your master who sent you here. Of course, if you want to settle the score, you have to find him. '
In fact, beating a dog was not something that should be on display, let alone it was an old dog brought home from the army and no longer had a strong body. Jiang Ruolan decided to omit the process since she had to beat it to death.
.
.
.
Just kidding. Of course, she wouldn't do that!
When Chaoxiang saw the weapon on Jiang Ruolan's hand, it finally understood who was the boss between her and it.
Thus, if the opponent could not dodge, then they would fall. Even if it was against a dog, that was a wise saying!
In order to make Chaoxiang fully understand the rule of "those who went against her will suffer a beating" and "those who follow her obediently will have meat to eat", Jiang Ruolan ran back to the bedroom and took out a small bag of ham sausages from her bag and went back to the study room. After messing with it, Jiang Ruolan finally let Chaoxiang eat the ham.
Anyway, they were under the same roof, home, and everything, so she needed Chaoxiang to be her ally.
Luckily, Chaoxiang was a short-haired dog. If it were, Xian Guiying probably wouldn't even stay at the Xian Residence. A short-haired dog wouldn't have any effect on pregnant women, so Jiang Ruolan immediately carried her new "good bro" downstairs.
"Ruolan, Guiying is not well today. She is resting in the guest room where she usually goes to be alone. Zihao just went to see her, so you don't need to go. That girl has a cold, and when she heard that you were pregnant, she immediately ran to the room, saying she was afraid of infecting you." Zhan An took out two plates of fruit, smiled at her, and told her to sit at the table by the window.
The Old Man was sleeping soundly on the recliner chair.
Jiang Ruolan smiled and then saw the thin blanket that the Old Man used was falling. She quickly walked over and covered him with the thin blanket again, then gently took out the tape recorder that the Old Man loved, which was in his arms, and shut it off and set it aside.
"Madam, Miss Cui Liuxian went out this morning and hasn't returned since. Should we call her?" Nanny Cheng, with a duster in her hand, was polishing a blue and white porcelain vase that was as tall as a boy.
Zhan An replied, "Go make a phone call and ask her to go home. Liuxian is in a bad mood, so you need to coax her a little."
Seeing that Nanny Cheng was about to call Cui Liuxian and didn't want to eavesdrop on their conversation, Jiang Ruolan decided to look at Xian Guiying. She went to the small guest room in the back where Xian Guiying had taken her before.
When Jiang Ruolan opened the door, she saw Xian Guiying sitting on the bed with a blanket in her arms.
