Chapter 279: This thing, you don’t need to feel wronged
Guard Li felt wronged. He just did what he usually does on a daily basis to prevent a hindrance on their young master’s departure. And who would have thought that this little village girl is really a friend of their young master?
The former friends of their young master were all noble sons in the capital. When did their young master become friendly to such shabby people?
Guard Li suppressed the anger and unwillingness in his heart. The smile in his eyes disappeared as he said: “Gongzi, it’s this subordinate’s recklessness. This subordinate didn’t know that this little girl is gongzi’s friend and offended her. This subordinate ask gongzi’s forgiveness.”
Meng Nan glared at Guard Li and said with a bad tone: “Go and accept your punishment!”
Guard Li busily retired. This so-called punishment is a ten whip lashes from a guard of the same team. The guards in the team were all his men. This ten whip will naturally not be heavy. It’s just he couldn’t reconcile, their young master punished him for the sake of this inexplicable people. He was the leader of the first-class guard in the Meng Family. Even Madam Meng gives him a little face, but this young master… …
Meng Nan asked: “Are you okay?”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “I’m alright. Fortunately, Hu Feng is here.”
Meng Nan’s face became black. He looked at Hu Feng. He was still staring at with him with a cold face, which made his heart felt an inexplicable taste.
“I’m sorry to surprise you. I didn’t expect them to do things indiscriminately. I guess I’m not strict enough.”
Bai Zhi nodded her head: “Indeed, it’s because you’re not strict.”
Seeing Meng Nan with a surprise looked in the face, Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Perhaps, you are too polite, so you feel wronged. These guards are not with you on a daily basis. They are not trained by you, that’s why you don’t understand their character. This thing, you don’t need to feel wronged.”
“But I’m telling you, this thing, even if you don’t need to feel wronged. They are guards of Meng Family, and you are a son of Meng Family. Their words and deeds represent your Meng Family, and also you, Meng Nan.”
“They dare to arbitrarily act arrogant in the street at will. Naturally, because they are relying on power, and this power comes from the Meng Family. They bullied and wounded people, even if they don’t know the other party. They only think that they are guards of Meng Family. And everything they do is instructed by Meng Family, isn’t it?”
Meng Nan wanted to say no, and that they are modest and gentle people. They never instruct the guards to bully people. But the facts are in front of him. So what else can he say?
He didn’t expect that the guards, who were so respectful in front of him at ordinary times, will have indifferent face in front of ordinary people.
Maybe, it’s not that he didn’t think of it, but he never thought about it.
Or perhaps, he never cared about it. Before he met Bai Zhi, did he ever look at shabby people in the street?
Meng Nan opened his mouth and said: “I understand what you mean. In the future, I will never let the same thing happen again.”
Bai Zhi’s little face showed a smile: “Well, let’s not talk about it, I brought you some dry foods. Eat them along the way.” After that, she turned around and walked towards their carriage.
Jin Shiwei hurriedly waved his hand for the two guards to come over and help. He wanted them to help move things that Bai Zhi brought in their carriage.
Meng Nan said: “Put them inside the carriage.”
Jin Shiwei was so happy. While he was eating breakfast, he was thinking about Bai Zhi’s food. His young master said to Bai Zhi not to see him off. But, he certainly wants to see her again deep inside his heart. It’s just he was too embarrassed to say it with his mouth.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they came out of the town, Bai Zhi was there waiting for them and brought them foods.
