if we were together

The sky was getting dark, the wall clock was ticking, the light in the ancestral hall did not change significantly, but the temperature kept dropping.

Duan Yi raised his wrist slightly, and glanced down at his watch, it was seven forty.I ate bacon omelette in the morning, and I haven't eaten since then. No wonder my stomach feels empty and uncomfortable, and I don't have anything for dinner.

The skin on the knees is thin, and the coldness and hardness of the bluestone slabs have penetrated the skin long ago. Tens of thousands of ice needles rushed up the blood vessels, densely pricking the lower limbs with pain.Kneeling for almost two hours now, I have long since lost feeling in my legs, my body is shaking like ice, my shirt is wet with sweat and sticks to my back, and my skin turns blue from the cold.

The injury to the back of the head was even worse, and it started to hurt at this time.

Fortunately, the second master kept in mind the rules of tough guys, and endured hard, gritting his teeth and not saying a word.But when I think that this sin will be punished by dawn, I feel that the road ahead is dark and long, boundless.A heart sank to the bottom.

The news that Duan Yi was fined to kneel was not deliberately concealed, Yun Jiashu knew about it not long after the old man left the ancestral hall.

He couldn't help but recall that when he first met, he was punished by Clarence to kneel because he insisted on dealing with Duan Yi regardless of Shen Zhaofeng's stop.

Now it's really a turn of events.

But the taste of being punished to kneel down is really hard to bear.Like a blunt knife slowly slashing, the slow dull pain piles up for a long time, and gradually accumulates and destroys the nerves as time goes by. To be honest, it is more terrifying than whipping.

But that was an order from Duan Yi's father, he could do nothing but wait.

After waiting for more than three hours, it was only a confirmation that Duan Yi must kneel until dawn hungry and not allowed to see anyone.

Yun Jiashu has been sitting at the desk, staring at the tablet for two hours, as if looking up some information.Then he stood up and walked out the door. When he went out, the bodyguards were waiting in the corridor and followed him closely.The model has long legs and walks fast, chasing the four people vigorously behind her, looking menacing.

Xiao Yang was finally a little worried, "Xiao Shu, what are you going to do?"

Yun Jiashu pursed his lips tightly and frowned, what could he do?When Clarence punished him, anyone who interceded would make him punished more severely, because authority cannot be challenged.

Duan Rongxian... is very similar to Clarence in some respects.

So comparing his heart to his heart, there is only one thing he can do.

"Wait."

It's just that he can decide how to wait and where to wait.

In fact, there is only a hanging flower gate between the inner and outer courtyards.Yun Jiashu's actions attracted the attention of others, but unfortunately he did not receive clear instructions, and with the four tall guards behind him, no one stopped him.

He went all the way to the outside of the ancestral hall.

There were two people guarding the entrance of the ancestral hall. Seeing the situation, they were a little nervous, and the tallest of them stopped him immediately: "This is the ancestral hall of the Duan family. People with foreign surnames are not allowed to enter."

Yun Jiashu continued to move forward until he reached a flat stone ground outside the ancestral hall, "Don't be nervous, I respect your traditions, and I have no intention of entering."

The place where he was standing was indeed five or six meters away from the stone steps of the gate of the ancestral hall. In the dark night, the tall and slender young man looked around like a moon god descending from the earth.

"It is said that when worshiping, the clan's children are in the ancestral hall, and the wife and daughter can only stand where I am standing now. This is really..." Yun Jiashu omitted the word feudal, but the implication was very Obviously, then facing the gate of the ancestral hall, Shi Shiran knelt down.

The two young men guarding the gate and the four bodyguards were all stunned.

Xiao Yang was startled, and hurried to pull him, "Xiaoshu, you, don't be like this, get up quickly."

Yun Jiashu waved his hand away, and his tone was still calm, "Don't make trouble."

Xiao Yang is about to cry, who is making trouble? Hey little ancestor!

Yun Jiashu continued: "Duan Yi and I swore to be united in front of the gods. We are partners who accept the blessings of the gods and are united as one. His faults are my faults, and the punishment he should be punished is the punishment I should be punished. Kneeling without him I just stood by and watched."

The two bodyguards sent by Clarence are named Russell and ICE, and they are guarding one meter away from Yunjiashu at this moment. They are lazy on the surface, but they are actually vigilant about their surroundings.There was no reaction to what he said, and I don't know if it was because I didn't understand it or because of my professionalism, I pretended not to hear it.

In addition to Xiao Yang who was hanging around, Xiao Zou was also obliged to guard, and asked, "Do you need to send a message to the old man for you?"

Yun Jiashu blinked his eyes as if he didn't understand what he meant, "Why did you send the message to the old man?"

Xiao Zou couldn't help but fell silent seeing his expression of not knowing what happened.

Is this little ancestor really ignorant or fake?

Along the way, Yun Jiashu's status was embarrassing, and everyone treated him as a transparent person.Now he is grandiosely kneeling outside the ancestral hall as Duan Yi's legal partner, where the wives and daughters of the Duan family's children kneel.

Is it really okay to so openly challenge Duan Rongxian's authority?

Thanks to him checking the information for several hours, he came up with such a solution.Actually got entangled with etiquette, did they return to before liberation overnight!

Not to mention Xiao Yang, even Xiao Zou really wants to complain...

Without Xiao Zou passing on the word, someone had already reported to Duan Rongxian verbatim what happened in front of the ancestral hall.

The old man's expression didn't change, but the gloom in his eyes deepened.Duan Zhen also sighed in his heart.Why did the second child provoke such a noble, aggressive, and unreasonable young master, no, His Royal Highness?Not only is he not afraid of being beaten with a stick, but he also makes trouble with him.It's just... a human tragedy.

The old lady Duan slapped the table and stood up, furious, "The devil king has found an accomplice now! What kind of daughter-in-law is so perverted, and she even gives power to her parents-in-law! I don't believe it."

Duan Zhen: "..." Have you accepted this setting unconsciously?

The old lady didn't realize her slip of the tongue, she got up and went to settle accounts with Yun Jiashu.

When Yun Jiashu was answering Shang Guanren's phone call, the old lady Duan arrived with someone, and without saying a word, she raised her hand and slapped her across the face.

Yun Jiashu was caught off guard and was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses. Shangguan Ren kept asking him what was wrong on the phone.He licked a small wound on the inside of his cheek, and said softly, "It's okay, brother, I'm busy here, so I'll hang up first."

He handed the phone to Russell, but the old lady wanted to call, but was stopped by ICE.After all, she is an old man, and ICE didn't dare to go too far, but just stood in front of her employer and prevented her from continuing.

Yun Jiashu touched his cheek, the old man didn't have much strength in his hands, and the slapping didn't feel painful, it was just that the ring left a swollen mark on his face.Still want to let the old lady out, he thought, so he ordered: "ICE, you stand down."

The bodyguards withdrew as promised, and the old lady immediately raised her hand and slapped her again. In the quiet courtyard, she said crisply and loudly, "You have ruined my good son! Ah, why do you have to do such dirty things? .You have no father or mother, no family and no education, don't come to harm my Duan family..."

The old lady was cursing and beating, when someone grabbed her wrist suddenly, she was about to get angry, when she turned her head, she saw Duan Yi's eyes suppressing his anger.Immediately panicked, "What are you doing out here, be careful to let your father find out before punishing you!"

Duan Yi knelt for more than three hours, but now he suddenly stood up, his legs hurt like needles, he couldn't stand up straight, his calf trembled slightly, the linen cloth was soaked in sweat, and it was tightly attached to his legs and back.The bangs are also wet, the gauze on the back of the head is bloody, and the lips are chapped, which makes the old lady feel distressed.But he just looked down at Yun Jiashu, who was still in a daze, this kid had a long reflex arc, he didn't know what to do for a while.Words can also hurt people. Duan Yi felt distressed and helpless when the old lady spoke so freely.

"Mom, don't blame him, I was the one who pestered him." Duan Yi finally sighed, he could only say so, let go of his mother's hand, grinned and knelt down beside Yun Jiashu again. "I kneel like I do here, Xiao Yang, you go and open the door a bit, so that all the ancestors of my Duan family can look at me and my wife, we are all observing the rules and reflecting on ourselves."

Xiao Yang sighed, what time is this, and he still doesn't forget to commit two crimes.He had no choice but to push the wooden door against the pressure.

The two gatekeepers are distant relatives of Duan Yi, the so-called uncle who has made many detours, although he is usually arrogant, but in front of him is the son who is their big backer, he dare not offend easily, he was at a loss for a while, so Ren Xiaoyang had to hold him The gate of the shrine opened.

The dim light was projected on the ground, forming an irregular warm yellow rectangle, and the memorial tablets in the deep hall were lined up in rows, faintly visible, adding a sense of solemnity to this thick and long night.

The old lady Duan was so angry that her fingers trembled. She was supported by the nanny beside her. Duan Yi watched nervously, "Mom, take care of yourself."

"You still know how to tell mom to be careful? I don't have a son like you!" The old lady Duan slapped Duan Yi again, and the pearl necklace the size of her thumb bumped softly on the purple cheongsam. Well, people who are in the middle of nowhere don't learn, and hang out with dubious people all day long..."

"Mom!" Duan Yi frowned and was about to speak when the person beside him grabbed his wrist. He squeezed his wrist.It was the first time Duan Yi saw him like this, he was stunned for a while, and suddenly understood, so he followed suit and bowed his head to listen to the lesson.

The old lady Duan scolded them for a while, and saw that the two boys were kneeling neatly side by side.She didn't know if she was being taught with an open mind or if she was wandering off, full of anger and unable to vent, she was so angry that she didn't know what to do - she couldn't really beat her son up, how could she bear it.

In the end, I had no choice but to give the two of them a hard look, and said, "I don't care, if you want to kneel, you can kneel until dawn!"

Then the old lady left with more anger than when she came.

The noisy courtyard fell silent in an instant. Duan Yi was physically and mentally exhausted. He sighed a long time, feeling dizzy, and leaned on his lover's shoulder, "Sorry, Xiaoshu. My mother was so angry that she couldn't choose anything...don't you Take it to heart."

No father, no mother, lack of support and lack of education. It took Yun Jiashu a while to understand the meaning of it. It is impossible to say that he doesn't care.

It's just that from the corner of his eyes, he saw layers of gauze on his lover's head, and in the end he just sighed, so he didn't mention it.Yun Jiashu put his arms around him, "It's okay, does your head still hurt?"

Duan Yi broke out in a cold sweat, smiled wryly and suppressed the increasingly obvious feeling of dizziness, and didn't even dare to move. "I was not beaten into a concussion by that perverted brother... Instead, I was concussed by my parents."

Yun Jiashu's face darkened, and the hand holding his lover's shoulder was even stronger.Duan Yi felt bad, gritted his teeth and tried hard to persevere, but his eyes were still getting darker, as if being dragged into a deep darkness by an invisible force.

A group of people noticed that Duan Yi was shaking, and Xiao Zou Xiaoyang took the lead to support him.Xiao Zou sighed, "I was wrong, boss, you are not a little sheep, you have become sick and delicate."

This rant was a bit harsh, but Duan Yi didn't hear it.

After he was injured, he didn't take much rest, and tried his best to help Xiaoshu deal with a group of world tree executives who looked like jackals and leopards.

After finally returning to China, the jet lag was not adjusted, and I was hungry for a whole day, and I knelt for a long time without moving, and my blood sank.After more than a week of tossing, even a man of iron can't stand it. It's really unfair to say that he is sick and delicate.
