Don’t air your dirty laundry in public!

Even if there is a big thing at home, we have to close the door and discuss it among family members.

In Lingjia Village, Mrs. Ling's reputation for being a fierce fighter is much more famous than Ling Lie's nickname of "top scholar."

As soon as she started to move, she made everyone retreat without even making a scene.

Why mess with her?

This is a shameless old shrew.

If you provoke her, she will sit at your doorstep and greet your ancestors for eighteen generations and all your relatives.

The curses he uttered were never the same over three days and three nights.

She threw a tantrum, cried and screamed... Really, even the shrews in the village couldn't stand it.

After all, shrews also have different levels, and Old Lady Ling is the top one!

Soon, the yard was cleared out, leaving only the Ling family members.

During this time, Old Man Ling and Old Lady Ling also sorted out all the things.

“Kneel down!”

When they arrived at the main hall, Old Man Ling was sitting in the main seat with a majestic posture. He did not mention anyone's name, but just uttered these two words in a loud voice.

Ling Lie was smart and although he felt it was "unlucky", he still knelt in front of everyone without saying a word.

"Brother Lie, do you know you are wrong?"

Although Old Man Ling was disappointed, he still had spoiled his grandson for many years and had placed his hopes on him for many years.

Until the last moment, biased elders will never think that there is anything wrong with their children.

Made a mistake?

Wouldn’t it be better if we just change it?

Even if it's wrong, they can forgive you as long as you say it nicely.

Of course, Ling Lie is not the original owner, so he naturally wouldn't do such a thing as pretending to obey but actually disobeying.

Although he lamented the "unsuccessful start", he did not blame others.

For example, Aunt Ling San who was always shouting and making noise.

There's nothing we can do. It's all the original owner's fault.

gamble?

Not good at studying?

This is what the original owner did, it's true.

What the executor needs to do is to clear the name, not to confuse right and wrong.

If you are wrong, you must admit it!

Stand at attention when you get beaten!

Ling Lie kowtowed heavily and said with great shame: "Grandpa, I was wrong!"

Although he admitted his mistake, Ling Lie still did not forget his mission.

He emphasized again: "I shouldn't gamble! Not even for the money!"

"Gambling is not a righteous way to live. If you get involved, your family will be ruined!"

"I am the eldest grandson of the Ling family, carrying the hopes of my entire family. What I have to do is study hard, pass the imperial examination, and become a high-ranking official!"

"Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom..."

Admit the mistake, make a few excuses, and then express your position and make up your mind.

Ling Lie knelt straight on the ground, his eyes sweeping over everyone in the Ling family one by one.

He was extremely sincere, "I was wrong. I won't get addicted to gambling just because I won money the first time."

"I will never gamble again. I will study hard!"

Seeing Ling Lie's attitude, the cold-faced old man Ling finally softened his expression.

As long as you know you are wrong and are willing to correct it, that’s fine!

but--

Old Man Ling glanced at Aunt Ling San who looked indignant, and "Ling Wu Ya" who still had red eyes.

He coughed lightly and winked at Old Lady Ling again.

Having been husband and wife for decades, the old couple definitely have a tacit understanding between them.

Old Mrs. Ling understood immediately, and she acted like a domineering head of the household, making the decision without any intention of consulting her children.

"Alright! Since Brother Lie has admitted his mistake and said he will never gamble again, this matter is over!"

"No one can mention it from now on—"

If it were in the past, Aunt Ling would have really been frightened.

But, today is different, she is right!

Of course, Aunt Ling is smart and won't make a fuss even if she is right.

She was very good at grasping the key points: "Mother, where is our Wu Ge'er?"

Aunt Ling has made up her mind that as long as her mother-in-law says that Wu Ge'er is not allowed to go to school, she will start making a fuss!

Old Mrs. Ling glared at Aunt Ling. This troublemaker was really restless.

But this time, Lie Ge'er was in the wrong, so Grandma Ling couldn't be too partial to him.

Furthermore, Ling Lie’s gambling incident did shock and disappoint the old couple.

They also had a vague worry in their hearts: Could it be that the eldest grandson was really unreliable?

They are partial, but it is also true that they want to bring honor to their family.

Ling Wu is also his grandson.

If he can be stronger than the eldest grandson, it will be a good thing for the Ling family and for the old couple!

"Study! Brother Wu should study too!"

Old Mrs. Ling secretly rejoiced that Brother Lie won the bet.

After deducting the money for attending the poetry meeting, there is still fifteen taels left.

If we save this money, we can allow Wu Ge'er to study for a few years.

"Where do you study?"

Aunt Ling was happy at first, but then her face turned calculating.

She now holds the upper hand and will not be satisfied with just letting her son study.

She wants to fight for the best interests of her son.

What is reading?

She wanted her son to replace Ling Lie and win the majority of the Ling family's resources!

Old Mrs. Ling’s eyebrows were about to stand up.

She didn't expect that her third daughter-in-law would be such an "exploitative" person.

Her son has already been allowed to go to school, yet she is still not satisfied?

What?

Want to go to the county too?

Humph, even Lie Ge'er also studied with the old scholar in the village for two years.

The old scholar said that he was a good student, so his family gritted their teeth and sent him to the county.

Wu Ge'er is going to the county right now?

Why?

Aunt Ling said, "Brother Lie? Haha, he didn't finish his studies in the county, but he learned how to gamble!"

Gambling is a lifelong stain on Ling Lie.
