Chapter 457 Severing ties
The housekeeper took a look at Si Chengyi who was lying on the ground and shivering, sighed, and went out helplessly.
Every country has its own laws and every family has its own rules. Even a big family like theirs has its own rules to discipline family members who do wrong, like Si Chengyi.
Si Chengyi really deserved to be beaten. No one could forgive what he had done.
When he heard the word "family discipline", he was so scared that he almost collapsed to the ground. Generally speaking, family discipline would only be used if something very serious had been done.
Just like the last time he and Si Chengren went to the gambling house and owed so much money, even though Si Wei Zhong was very angry, he still didn't mention the family rules.
This time, as soon as he got home, Si Wei Zhong asked to use the family rules. It seemed that he was really angry.
Si Chengyi wanted to plead again, but when he saw Si Wei Zhong's murderous eyes, he opened his mouth but dared not say anything. The panic in his heart occupied his entire heart.
The butler came back soon, holding a tray in his hand, on which was placed the family rules of Yong'an Marquis Mansion, which were specially used to punish clan members.
Every family has different family rules. The old marquis of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion has always been upright and incorruptible, and he is extremely strict with younger generations who make mistakes.
In order to prevent the younger generations from making mistakes, a lot of barbs are installed on the family rules. They are densely packed, and each barb is about one centimeter deep. You can imagine how painful it would be when it hits the body.
Si Chengyi looked at the barbs on the family rules and his hair stood up and his scalp went numb. If this thing hit him, his body would be full of holes.
Would he die from excessive bleeding? At this moment he regretted that he should not have come back. If he had come back later, Si Weizhong might have calmed down.
Or if he doesn't come back, even if life is a little harder, it is better than losing my life.
There had never been a moment when he felt death was so close to him. He was shocked and scared, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"Dad, don't use family rules on me. My eldest brother is gone, and I'm your only son. You will beat me to death." Si Chengyi was so scared that he was incoherent.
"Hahaha, I'll beat you to death! When you stole things from the warehouse and left me alone, I already had no son. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me. From today on, you and I sever the father-son relationship."
Si Wei Zhong had a ferocious smile on his face, his eyes bloodshot, and spoke viciously.
"No, I'm your son. I'm not going anywhere. I want to stay and take care of you until the end of your life." Si Chengyi knelt on the ground, moved towards Si Wei Zhong, then hugged his legs and cried bitterly.
"My son died a month ago. Who the hell are you to pretend to be my son?" Si Wei Zhong tried to pull Si Chengyi's hand away.
Even though he used all his strength, he was unable to pull him away because he had been in serious physical condition for some time. He clenched his fist in anger and punched Si Chengyi on the head.
Si Chengyi seemed unaware of his fist and still held it tightly, with no intention of letting go.
"Do you think you'll be fine if you catch me?" After beating for a while, Si Wei Zhong was exhausted and out of breath. Seeing that Si Chengyi was unmoved, he winked at the housekeeper next to him.
The housekeeper understood and called two servants to pull Si Chengyi away.
"Si Chengyi and Si Chengren stole a huge amount of property from our home, so we have to use the family law to punish them with thirty strokes of the cane to serve as a warning to others." Si Wei Zhong shouted sternly, word by word.
"No, Dad, please, I beg you, I'll kowtow to you." Si Chengyi simply couldn't imagine how many holes there would be on his body after being caned thirty times. Thinking of that miserable scene, he was so scared that he almost peed himself.
"It's no use begging me, butler, I'll execute you." Si Wei Zhong's body was shaky, but he still managed to stand. It is said that a mother feels pain when her son is beaten, and there is no parent in the world who does not love their own children.
But what they did was really chilling. I tried every way to pay off their gambling debts, but instead of being grateful, they even stole all the valuable things in the warehouse. They are simply worse than animals.
In this case, let’s teach him a lesson he will never forget. Since he can do such a thing, from now on, just treat him as a childless person.
Soon a servant brought a long bench. Si Chengyi struggled violently. He had a leg injury and could not move easily. How could he be a match for the two servants?
He was soon pushed onto a long bench, and Si Chengyi screamed in fear.
"Shut his mouth." Si Wei Zhong felt annoyed listening to his shouting.
Now Si Chengyi could no longer make any sound. The housekeeper, holding the family rules, looked at Si Chengyi, then turned to look at Si Wei Zhong, and finally sighed helplessly.
He closed his eyes and used his family's skills to hit Si Chengyi from behind.
The thorns on the family rules are not very sharp, but they can still pierce into the flesh when hit.
Suddenly, Si Chengyi's eyes widened, as if he was in great pain. He wanted to scream, but the cloth stuffed in his mouth blocked his voice in his throat.
You can imagine how painful it would be to be hit on the body, again and again, and soon Si Chengyi's khaki-colored coarse cloth clothes were stained with large patches of blood.
The butler's movements were so light and fluttery that Si Wei Zhong couldn't stand it any longer: "Didn't you eat? Hit me hard."
"Yes, master." The housekeeper was helpless. He turned his head away from Si Chengyi and used the family law again, with more than twice the force than before.
Si Chengyi only felt countless bloody holes on his back. Every time he was hit, he almost fainted from the pain, but he was conscious and could only endure it.
Thirty strokes was actually a lot, but it was not enough to eliminate the hatred in Si Wei Zhong's heart.
At the beginning, Si Chengyi's body trembled violently every time he hit her. The further he hit, the smaller the movements became. When he was almost done, he actually stopped moving.
The servant who was holding him down looked down and saw that the man was unconscious.
Seeing this scene, the butler stopped and asked Si Wei Zhong if he continued to beat him, he would really beat the man to death.
"Hmph, if you have the guts to do these things, you must bear the corresponding consequences. I must beat him thirty times today so that he knows the consequences of betrayal." Si Wei Zhong felt uncomfortable in his chest, but he still refused to give in.
He had endured both mental and physical torture for so many days, how could the culprit let him off so easily?
When the punishment was over, Si Wei Zhong didn't even look at Si Chengyi and had someone help him back.
The housekeeper sent someone to call a doctor, and asked the kitchen to prepare some medicine for him and feed him to drink it. It was already evening.
The two people waiting outside the door did not dare to go too far away. They sat in the carriage from time to time, or walked forward a few steps and looked in the direction of Yong'an Marquis Mansion from a distance, for fear that Si Chengyi would not be able to find them when he looked for them.
