Could it be that this brat wanted to take something from the storeroom?
It wasn't impossible. This brat had a criminal record. Perhaps he wanted to do something this time?
Was there something strange?
Thinking of this, he waved his hand to summon a servant and whispered in his ear, "Follow the young master and see what he's up to."
The servant nodded and followed closely behind Cheng Chumo.
On the other hand, Cheng Chumo walked all the way to the storeroom. Seeing the guard standing at the door, he straightened his back and assumed the posture of a young master of the Cheng family, "You two open the storeroom. Lao Tzu wants to go in and check."
Unexpectedly, the servant didn't open the door. Instead, he sized up Cheng Chumo as if he didn't recognize the person in front of him, "You are?"
It wasn't that they didn't recognize Cheng Chumo, but Cheng Chumo's current appearance was difficult to recognize. One side of his face was big and the other side was small. Furthermore, it was completely red. How could they recognize him?
Moreover, this fellow had been wearing the clothes of the Zhang residence ever since he returned from Sheng Zhou. This was completely out of place with the Cheng residence. Therefore, the guard asked this question.
However, this question angered Cheng Chumo. Lao Tzu was a dignified young master of the Duke. How could no one recognize him now?
Moreover, he was a guard of the Cheng residence. This was simply humiliating.
His young master temper exploded. He glared at the guard and scolded, "You dogs don't even recognize Lao Tzu? Lao Tzu is the young master of the Cheng family, Cheng Chumo. Do you believe that Lao Tzu will break your legs? "
He was so angry that he stomped his feet. He thought to himself, Old Cheng hit Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu still didn't have a place to vent his anger. Now, he's using you guys to vent his anger.
Thinking of this, he reached out and prepared to slap them.
In the blink of an eye, the guard discovered something.
This …
This was the young master.
He had been in the Cheng residence for many years and naturally knew that the Duke had a bad temper and often hit the young master.
Therefore, he was used to all of this. However, he didn't expect the beating to be so fierce this time. ,
Young Master's entire face was swollen. No wonder he didn't recognize him just now.
Now that Young Master was angry, he wanted to vent his anger.
Hiss …
He sucked in a breath of cold air. His mind suddenly flashed with the notorious reputation of the young master. His legs couldn't help but go soft. He quickly knelt down: "Young master, please spare my life. This slave had eyes but failed to see."
Cheng Chumo coldly snorted as his palm missed. It seemed that he had yet to vent his anger. He kicked the guard's shoulder and scolded, "Lao Tzu can't teach others a lesson, but can't he teach you a lesson? Open the storeroom door immediately. "
The guard staggered and quickly returned to his original position. His hands trembled slightly as he said, "Young Master, this …"
The storehouse had always been managed by the madam, who was the young master's birth mother. This madam could be said to be the tyrant of the Cheng Mansion, or even the tyrant of Chang 'an. She had once said that no one should open the storehouse without permission. But now, the young master wanted to open the storehouse without permission. Wasn't that courting death?
He didn't dare to provoke this. The young master might be fine if he barged in, but he might be beaten.
Cheng Chumo naturally knew this, but he didn't dare to ask his mother for permission. That guy was more powerful than Old Cheng. He might as well barge in. Anyway, his father wasn't angry. The Sheng Zhou incident had already been reported to the Cheng Mansion, so it should be fine. Even if there was trouble, it would be this guard.
He clenched his fist and continued to threaten, "Now I'll give you two choices. The first is to be beaten to death by me. The second is to open the door. Choose one."
The guard quivered and felt a chill run down his back.
He knew the young master's notoriety. If he dared to claim second place in Chang 'an, no one dared to claim first place.
Now that he said he wanted to beat him to death, it didn't seem like he was lying.
But if he opened the door, how could he get past the madam?
She was someone who was more troublesome than the young master.
What should he do?
Just as he was vexed, an idea came to his mind.
If he fainted and the young master took the key, it shouldn't have anything to do with him, right?
After thinking it over, this method was the safest and the best.
After making up his mind, he took a bunch of keys from his waist and threw them on the ground, "I don't know anything."
With that, he closed his eyes as if he was really in a coma.
Cheng Chumo smiled. This guy was really clever. Did he really think he could pretend to be in a coma and everything would be fine?
But he didn't expose him. He picked up the keys and looked around. Seeing that no one was around, he opened the door and walked in quickly.
Cheng Chumo thought that no one saw all this, but he didn't expect that a pair of eyes in the distance saw everything clearly. This person was the servant sent by Cheng Yaojin just now.
Seeing that the young master didn't come out, he strode to Cheng Yaojin, "Master, the young master entered the storeroom …"
"What?"
Cheng Yaojin exclaimed and quickly asked, "What did this dog enter the storeroom for?"
The storeroom had always been in charge of the tigress. This dog dared to enter without orders? Usually, even he didn't dare to go in. Wasn't he courting death by going in now?
The servant shook his head, "I don't know."
