The nine men did not eat with them. They set up another table in the kitchen.

After dinner, Song Jingchen called the nine of them into the study. Shen Yijia saw that he was still in a wheelchair and didn’t say anything.

She was going for a run with Brother Hao and the others, but Song Jingchen suddenly asked her to follow them.

Shen Yijia rubbed her nose. “Why do I need to be there while you’re discussing things among yourselves? Now Lin Shao has to bring the kids out himself.” she thought.

After what happened yesterday, Shen Yijia felt that everyone needed to strengthen their bodies and martial arts skills.

Especially Sister Huan and Lin Miaomiao, if they knew some self defense, they could protect themselves when they were outside.

She did not say it out loud and only secretly decided to drill them hard.

Those who would choose to work for Song Jingchen were all people who didn’t have a home and were wandering around. They knew much more than ordinary people.

As soon as Song Jingchen said his name, everyone’s hearts skipped a beat. Seeing that he was pretending to be a cripple even though his legs were fine, it wasn’t hard to imagine what he wanted to do.

Yesterday, they felt that they had followed an impressive master, but they did not expect him to be so impressive. He was going to lead them to do something huge.

Seeing their reactions, Song Jingchen knew that they weren’t stupid. He only said, “Tell me your names.”

When Skinny Monkey heard this, he immediately added, “Master, please give me a name!”

He felt that it was better not to mention his name. It was no longer worthy of his current status.

The others looked at Song Jingchen in tacit understanding, clearly having the same thoughts as Skinny Monkey.

Song Jingchen was silent. Before he could speak, Shen Yijia, who was standing at the side, suddenly interrupted with interest, “I know how to name things!”

Her eyes sparkled with eagerness.

The nine of them suddenly had an ominous feeling.

Fifteen minutes later, the nine men left the study helplessly.

Shen Yijia was confused and asked Song Jingchen unhappily, “Didn’t I choose some good names? They didn’t seem to like it.”

Song Jingchen held back his laughter. “The names were pretty good.”

“Then they…” Shen Yijia did not believe him.

“Maybe they’re just overly happy about getting new names.”

Shen Yijia rubbed her chin and agreed with Song Jingchen.

The nine of them silently returned to their room. Because there were too many people in the house, there weren’t enough rooms to share, so they squeezed together for the time being.

“One Dot1,” Skinny Monkey suddenly shouted.

The big man glanced at him. After a long time, he spat out, “Rooster!”

Skinny Monkey was now known as “Rooster”.

He fell back on the couch and resigned himself to his fate. “So be it. It’s better than my previous name.”

One Dot, the man who ate a rat in the dungeon, fell silent for a moment before saying coldly, “My original name sounded better.”

“My original name meant ‘The Strong One’. I also think it sounds better than Two Dots. After all, it was given to me by my parents. Can I get my name back?” Two Dots interrupted weakly.

The other men were also named after Mahjong tiles. Thirty Thousand, Forty Thousand, East Wind, South Wind, West Wind, and North Wind were their new names. They were all speechless.

“Why didn’t you say so in the study earlier? What’s the use of complaining now?” they all thought.

They had followed a powerful master. Shouldn’t their names be more dignified? Why did their names become so strange?

Well, there was this unexpected factor called Shen Yijia.

“Damn, it sounds pretty good. Don’t worry about it. Didn’t Young Madam say that we’re called Mahjong Brothers?” Rooster comforted them, although he didn’t know what Mahjong was.

Among the nine people, his name was the worst. He had already resigned himself to his fate. What else did they have to say?

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the other eight people looked at him.

Rooster sat up. “Do you guys…”

Before he could say anything, One Dot covered his mouth, and punches came from all directions.

It couldn’t be helped. He was the one who suggested giving them names. These men couldn’t hold grudges against their master, but they could vent their anger on this culprit.

By noon, Shen Yijia had completely recovered and was full of vigor. While Song Jingchen was giving them guidance, she sneaked into the study.

She stayed inside for 15 minutes before coming out. She thought that she had done it secretly, but as soon as she reached the front yard, she bumped into Song Jingchen.

Shen Yijia put her hands behind her back guiltily. Seeing that Song Jingchen was staring at her, she forced a smile and said, “You’ve finished so quickly.”

Song Jingchen nodded and glanced behind her.

“Well, I saw that your study was a little messy, so I went to help you clean up.” Shen Yijia nodded seriously.

Song Jingchen sighed helplessly. “Take it out.”

“Oh.” Shen Yijia became timid in a second and handed him the box hidden behind her.

Song Jingchen continued to look at her. “And?”

She glared at Song Jingchen in protest. Seeing that he was unmoved, she could only obediently take off the sleeve arrow on her wrist.

Song Jingchen took it and raised his eyebrows. “There’s more.”

Shen Yijia was speechless.

She gritted her teeth and squatted down to untie the short daggers tied to her calves. She threw the two daggers into Song Jingchen’s arms.

Seeing that Song Jingchen was still looking at her, Shen Yijia almost cried. She gritted her teeth and stuck her hand into her belt. She took out Lin Shao’s powder bag and threw it to Song Jingchen.

Song Jingchen looked at her equipment and held his forehead helplessly. He reminded her, “I’m talking about the crossbow on your back.”

He didn’t stalk her. How could he have known that she was hiding so many things?

“Could this person be any more silly?” he thought.

Shen Yijia reacted and was dumbfounded. “Did I expose myself?” she thought.

Song Jingchen took the crossbow and asked despite knowing the answer, “Where are you going?”

“I’m not going anywhere!” Shen Yijia rubbed her nose and denied it.

“Liar.”

Shen Yijia’s teeth hurt. She knew that her beautiful husband was so smart that he wouldn’t be easy to fool. She said, “I’m going to kill that nasty official. Otherwise, what if he comes to our house again?”

She did not want anything similar to happen again. She was the one who caused this matter, so she had to settle it.

Song Jingchen was silent for a moment. He lowered his head and opened the box. Inside lay a fiery red whip.

He knew Shen Yijia’s weakness. This soft whip was specially prepared for her, but something happened before he could give it to her.

Song Jingchen took out the whip and handed it to Shen Yijia before saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll settle it.”

“But…” Shen Yijia protested. Song Jingchen was supposed to keep a low profile.

Shen Yijia was not stupid. In this world where imperial power was paramount, if the people in the capital found out that Song Jingchen’s legs had recovered, it would definitely bring about a lot of trouble.

“Don’t you always say that I’m the smartest? Are you doubting me?” Song Jingchen deliberately asked her.

Shen Yijia quickly shook her head. “Of course not. My husband is naturally the smartest.”

After saying that, she lowered her head. “But I was the one who caused this. If it weren’t for me…”

“He was the one who caused this. He deserves to die!” Song Jingchen’s voice turned cold when he thought of that. He realized that his tone was too fierce. He took a deep breath and suppressed the violence in his heart. “You didn’t do anything wrong. Believe me, I won’t let him appear in front of you again.”
