What to do if you have too many golden fingers? Walk sideways!

The General's Mansion.

When General Chu Shiting learned that the rebellious son had been captured, he rushed back to the mansion overnight.

At this moment, he was holding a whip in his hand, scolding his son with a red face and thick neck.

"You evil creature! You lied to me and said you were going back home to spend a few days with your mother. If I hadn't come back that day for something, I wouldn't have known you didn't even go home! Tell me, where have you been fooling around these past few days?!"

Chu Zhao knelt down obediently and said, "Dad, I'm going to look for food. The soldiers can only eat porridge every day, so how can they have the energy to train?"

Chu Shiting was so angry at his son that he laughed.

"Just you? Where do you find food? Where is the food you found?"

Chu Zhao said weakly:

"Then it hasn't been brought back yet. Please wait a little longer, it will be available soon."

Chu Zhao thought to himself: That batch of antique paintings and calligraphy should have been shipped to the capital. As long as I exchange them for money, I can buy food. I hope Lu Xiaowu and the others can come back soon.

Chu Shiting paced back and forth angrily, then pointed his whip at Chu Zhao's nose and scolded him:

"Look, I don't know about your trip to Chengyang County!"

"Ah? Dad, you know everything? It seems like I can't hide anything from you." Chu Zhao muttered.

"You don't do your job, but you are good at stealing! If you can really get some food, you have some skills! I'm not a pedantic person. After making such a big fuss, you just come back empty-handed? I must whip you a hundred times today to teach you a lesson."

As Chu Shiting spoke, he whipped Chu Zhao on the back.

Thinking back to the past, when Chu Shiting was young, he had robbed the rich to help the poor, and he had also done many things like stealing from corrupt officials.

It is said that a good father will have a good son. Why does he feel more and more annoyed with this son?

waste!

If someone can rob you when you steal something, you must be so stupid!

"Pa" Chu Shiting whipped him again, feeling very disappointed with him.

"Husband, it's enough, just hit me twice to vent your anger. Why are you really going to beat me to death? If I hurt you, I would feel bad even if you don't." Madam Ren stepped forward, grabbed Chu Shiting's hand holding the whip, and advised.

Chu Shiting said:

"Madam, if you feel bad, just go out. Out of sight, out of mind. I must teach him a lesson today."

Ren stood in front of Chu Zhao:

"Husband, Zhao'er already knows he was wrong, and will definitely change next time."

Chu Shiting said angrily, "Does he want to do it again? A loving mother often spoils her child! Madam, please get out of the way."

Ren didn't move, she just stood with her hands on her hips and stared at Chu Shiting.

Chu Shiting was even more furious when he saw Ren protecting Chu Zhao.

"Don't worry about it! No matter who comes today, it won't work!"

After saying that, he stretched out his big hand and directly hugged Ren into his arms and held her down. How could Ren's small body break free?

Chu Shiting raised the whip with his other hand again.

Ren was so embarrassed that she reached out to scratch Chu Shiting, "You bastard, my son is here!"

Chu Zhao lowered his head and smiled secretly, saying that he saw nothing.

At this time, the housekeeper came running over, "Master, someone has come from the military camp. It seems something big has happened."

"What? Something happened in the barracks?"

Now he had no time to teach his son a lesson. He let go of Ren and walked out.

Upon hearing that something happened in the military camp, Chu Zhao also became nervous. He quickly stood up and wanted to go with his father.

"Zhao'er, you have a wound on your back. Apply medicine first." Ren shouted from behind.

Chu Zhao waved his hand: "This is just a minor injury, no need for medicine."

Then he hurriedly followed his father, riding his horse at full speed towards the military camp.

Before reaching the military camp, I saw a small hill in the distance with a group of soldiers guarding there.

When he arrived, Chu Shiting dismounted and looked at the mountain of grain in shock.

Just now I thought the herald was too excited and talking nonsense, but now even he himself is too excited.

Chu Shiting picked up one of the bags of grain at random and found the words "Xu Ji Grain Shop of Chengyang County" on it.

He turned around and looked at Chu Zhao: "Did you bring all these back?"

Chu Zhao was even more shocked than his father. At this moment, his eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, his mouth was wide open, and his heart was filled with turmoil.

The expression on his face was first shock, then turned into disbelief.

He stood there, unable to come back to his senses for a moment.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chu Shiting thought he agreed.

After all, my son had just returned from Chengyang County, and the food from Chengyang County had arrived.

Chu Shiting's expression changed from anger to joy, "Well, you little bastard, you have learned to act first and ask for permission later."

He also didn't expect that his son would deliver the food to the gate of the military camp without anyone noticing.

They got such a large batch, it should be enough to feed their military camp for three to five months, right?

As expected of him being a descendant of the Chu family, Chu Shiting was filled with pride.

Then he happily arranged for people to transport the food to the granary in the military camp.

Chu Zhao, who had not yet come to his senses, finally shook his head.

He was sure that this batch of grain was the one that Zhen Wude had hoarded.

The food disappeared inexplicably at that time, and he was shocked for a long time.

Unexpectedly, this batch of food appeared inexplicably at the gate of the military camp.

This can only be done by gods, right?

Chu Shiting looked at the soldiers busy carrying food, laughed and patted Chu Zhao's shoulder.

"Haha, you little brat, I underestimated you! Tell me quickly, when did you deliver the food? Are you deliberately holding back to give me a surprise?"

The slap landed right on the whip wound. Chu Zhao shrank his neck in pain and said with a grin:

"This is not it. I did it."

Chu Shiting thought his son was still angry with him, and said:

"Come on, you. I beat you twice and you still hold a grudge. It was all Dad's fault before. This time you have done a great deed. Dad will not pursue the matter of you sneaking away."

Chu Zhao: "..."

Just now his father decided that he couldn't get food, and whipped him twice for it.

Now his father has determined that he was the one who got the grain, and he has no choice but to admit it!

Real dad!

By the time this batch of grain was stored in the warehouse, it was already dawn.

Chu Zhao was dizzy all night. He returned to the city immediately after dawn and asked someone to find Wu Dajiang.

"Major General!" Wu Dajiang saluted.

When they went out to get food before, Chu Zhao was afraid of exposing his identity, so he didn't allow them to call him Major General, and asked them to call him Boss. Now that he is back, he naturally changed the name back to the original.

"I asked you to keep an eye on that woman yesterday. Did you notice anything unusual?" Chu Zhao asked.

Wu Dajiang had dark circles under his eyes and said:

"Yes. She left the north city gate last night, then entered a forest and disappeared. I looked for her for a while but couldn't find her, so I went back to the inn where she was staying and waited for her, but she didn't come back all night."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Chu Zhao asked anxiously.

"When I came to the general's mansion in the middle of the night last night, the people in the mansion said that you went to the military camp. So I went back to the inn to guard it." Wu Dajiang said.

"You said she went into a forest and disappeared?" Chu Zhao asked.

"Yes, but, but," Wu Dajiang nodded, with an expression as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"If you have something to say, say it. If you have to fart, fart!" Chu Zhao glared at him.
