The Untamed: Wei Wuxian Reborn as a Child

Chapter 117: Being punished to copy the house rules

Cloud Recesses was always quiet and peaceful, with strict rules. But in recent days, thanks to the arrival of a few young people, it had become a bit more lively and bustling.

Xue Yang was walking aimlessly on the small path in the Cloud Recesses, muttering, "That Wei Wuxian guy abandoned me after he got Lan Wangji. Humph, I'll make sure to teach him a lesson next time I see him." As he was walking, he ran into Nie Huaisang, Wen Ning and Jiang Cheng.

Nie Huaisang fanned himself and said with a grin, "Xue Yang, I've been so bored these past few days. Why don't we go to the back mountains and have some fun?"

Xue Yang's eyes lit up: "Okay, why are we going to the back mountain?"

Jiang Cheng snorted, "What else can I do? Slacking off, of course."

Wen Ning nodded silently.

So, the four of them went to the back mountain of the Cloud Recesses. The stream was gurgling and clear, and fish were swimming happily in the water.

Xue Yang rolled up his sleeves excitedly: "Haha, I have fish to eat today."

Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes at him: "You only know how to eat."

Nie Huaisang directed from the side: "Wen Ning, you go over there, Xue Yang, you stay here, let's drive the fish to the middle."

Soon, they had a good harvest. Xue Yang looked at the fish jumping around in the bucket and smiled from ear to ear: "Let's go find a place to grill them and eat them."

They found a secluded spot, lit a fire, and began grilling fish. The aroma filled the air, and Xue Yang eagerly picked up a fish and took a bite: "Hmm, delicious."

Jiang Cheng frowned: "Can't you be more polite?"

Nie Huaisang was eating with his mouth full of oil: "Who cares, as long as it tastes good."

Wen Ning ate the fish silently with a satisfied smile on his face.

Just as they were enjoying their meal, several Lan disciples passed by and smelled the fragrance.

"What does it smell like? It smells so good."

"It seems to be coming from over there."

They followed the smell and saw four people grilling fish.

"What are you doing? Killing is forbidden in the Cloud Recesses."

Jiang Cheng quickly stood up: "We...we just..."

Xue Yang said nonchalantly, "It's just grilling a fish, what's the big deal?"

The Lan family disciple's face darkened: "This matter must be reported to Mr. Lan."

After saying that, they turned and left.

Jiang Cheng glared at Xue Yang: "It's all your fault."

Xue Yang shrugged: "What's there to be afraid of? The worst that can happen is I'll get scolded."

Nie Huaisang looked worried: "This is terrible. I wonder how Mr. Lan will punish us."

Lan Qiren soon learned of this. His beard bristled with rage. "You guys are so audacious! Have you forgotten the rules of the Cloud Recesses? I'll punish you by making you copy the house rules three hundred times."

Jiang Cheng, Wen Ning, and Nie Huaisang all lowered their heads, not daring to speak. Xue Yang, however, said unconvincedly, "It's just grilled fish, is there any need to make such a big deal about it?"

Lan Qiren glared at him and said, "You dare to talk back? I'll do it a hundred times."

The four had no choice but to copy the family rules.

Jiang Cheng and Wen Ning copied carefully, each stroke perfectly. Nie Huaisang sighed as he copied, "How long will this take?"

Xue Yang became impatient after writing for a while: "What kind of rubbish are these house rules? There are so many of them."

His eyes rolled as he came up with an idea. Use paper figures to copy. He folded a few small paper figures and cast a spell, making them pick up the pen and start copying. He slept beside them.

After a while, Jiang Cheng noticed Xue Yang's little movement and asked, "Xue Yang, what are you doing?"

Xue Yang opened one eye and said, "Nothing. I was just copying the house rules."

Jiang Cheng walked over and saw the paper man copying. He was so angry that he grabbed the paper man and said, "How dare you use the paper man to copy? You are cheating."

Xue Yang sat up: "How can this be considered cheating?"

Jiang Cheng said angrily, "If Mr. Lan knew about this, he would definitely be even angrier."

Xue Yang disagreed: "What are you afraid of? He doesn't know."

Just then, Lan Qiren walked in. He saw Xue Yang sleeping and the paper man copying, and his face turned blue with anger.

"Xue Yang, you're so bold! You actually dared to copy the family rules on a paper figurine. What do you think of the rules of the Cloud Recesses?"

Xue Yang quickly stood up: "Mr. Lan, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again."

Lan Qiren snorted coldly, "Add another two hundred times. You are not allowed to leave until you finish copying."

Xue Yang said with a bitter face: "Ah! Mr. Lan, can you please be less?"

Lan Qiren glared at him: "No room for negotiation."

Xue Yang had no choice but to continue copying the house rules, while Jiang Cheng, Wen Ning, and Nie Huaisang laughed secretly on the side.

After this incident, Xue Yang didn't dare to cause trouble in the Cloud Recesses for a long time. However, he still missed Wei Wuxian and thought that the next time he saw him, he would definitely teach him a lesson.
