Chapter 323 You’re almost as good as your stepfather!
Zhou Yong lowered his voice and whispered in Li Caiyun's ear: "Have you ever heard of the saying that loving mothers often spoil their children?"
Li Caiyun remained silent. She glanced at Zhou Yong and quietly stepped aside.
Zhou Yong looked at Li Caiyun deeply, then he walked up to the four children with an expressionless face.
"Tell me, who among you came up with this idea..."
The four children looked at each other in silence, tears welling up in their eyes.
Zhou Yong frowned upon seeing this: "Why, are you guys planning to join forces to fight me to the end?"
Zhou Kerou slowly raised her head and opened her mouth. The little girl looked at her brother and sister, then lowered her head again.
Zhou Yong raised his eyebrows secretly: "I will give you three minutes. If you still refuse to confess, you will bear the consequences."
He stood with his hands behind his back in front of the four children, creating an invisible sense of oppression.
Li Jingchu secretly glanced at his father, and then he quickly looked away, feeling a little nervous.
Li Jingen secretly reached out and tugged at the bottom edge of his elder brother's clothes, asking Li Jingchu with his eyes what to do.
Li Jingchu pulled his elder sister Zhou Kexin's clothes again, and the siblings exchanged glances.
Zhou Yong saw all the little movements of the three siblings, but he said nothing, giving them time to discuss silently.
However, at this moment, Zhou Kerou raised her hand, and Zhou Yong raised his eyebrows secretly.
"Dad, if I take the initiative to explain the problem, can I be exempted from writing a 500-word self-review?"
Zhou Yong said with a straight face: "Sure!"
Zhou Kerou was about to speak, but Zhou Keyin coughed, obviously hinting at something.
Zhou Yong narrowed his eyes and said, "Zhou Kexin, stop doing these little tricks under my nose."
Zhou Kexin bit her lip and said nothing, but Zhou Kerou hesitated.
Zhou Yong was so angry that he laughed: "You are really my good sons and daughters. I gave you a chance but you don't know how to cherish it, right? Well, now go to the yard and kneel down..."
The four children's faces changed slightly, but before leaving, they couldn't help but secretly glance at Li Caiyun, Zhang Guifang and Li Baotian.
Obviously they wanted to ask for help, but unfortunately, whether it was Li Caiyun, Zhang Guifang or Li Baotian, the three of them either lowered their heads, pretended not to see, or turned their faces away.
Li Jing'an was a righteous man. He ran to Zhou Yong, grabbed his hand and shook it, pleading for his brother and sister.
Zhou Yong picked up the fat boy Li Jingan and said, "Do you want to go out and kneel with your brothers and sisters?"
Li Jingan hurriedly shook his head, which made Zhou Yong raise his eyebrows.
Zhou Kexin and her two siblings left the house silently and knelt in the yard.
“It’s cold outside.”
There is a big temperature difference between inside and outside the house. They are not used to the outdoor temperature after just coming out of the house.
Li Jingchu sighed: "It will be even colder soon."
He did tell the truth.
Li Jingen pursed his lips and said, "Brother, we won't kneel all night, right?"
Li Jingchu was also unsure. Based on his understanding of his parents, grandparents, they would have to kneel for at least an hour or two before they could enter the house.
Zhou Kexin took over the conversation: "It's good enough that we can go back to the room in the middle of the night, but another hour or two? You really dare to think so."
They teamed up to cheat their parents out of their money, and this mistake cannot be easily forgiven.
Zhou Kerou wailed when she heard this: "You'll be frozen into popsicles in an hour or two. You guys just kneel here while I explain the problem."
Zhou Kexin said coldly: "If you go and explain the problem, we will no longer be friends with you in the future."
Zhou Kerou pouted and said nothing: "Sister, you just threaten me."
Zhou Kexin's tone softened: "Nan Nan, don't you like my Hero pen? I'll give it to you later."
Zhou Kerou's eyes lit up, and her depressed mood was swept away: "Sister, did you say that? I didn't force you to give me a pen..."
Although Zhou Kexin felt painful, she had to give up in order not to ruin the opportunity.
Li Jingchu looked at the night sky and said, "What do you think? If it snows now, can our parents let us into the house?"
Li Jingen: "Brother, shut up. We just got out, and unless we kill them, our parents won't let us in."
Li Jingchu sighed, Zhou Kexin looked up at the night sky, and Zhou Kerou exclaimed: "Brother, it's snowing."
The four children stretched out their hands, and tiny snowflakes fell gently. Zhou Kexin held his forehead with his hand and said, "Gou Dan, you are such a bad person."
Li Jingchu raised his hand and touched his mouth, muttering, "Good things don't work, but bad things do."
Li Jingen was so angry that he grabbed Li Jingchu's neck and said, "Brother, I'll strangle you to death."
Li Jingchu pushed Li Jingen away and said in a condescending tone: "I, your big brother, haven't lived enough!"
The four children knelt on the ground and started playing. The coldness in their bodies gradually dissipated and they laughed happily.
Zhou Yong stood quietly in front of the window, with his hands behind his back, looking deeply at the four siblings who were laughing.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Look at his good sons and daughters, they have such a good mentality that even when they are punished to kneel, it does not stop them from playing and fighting.
Li Caiyun took in the situation of the four children. She sighed helplessly, thinking that the siblings were really generous.
"It's snowing outside, why don't we ask them to come inside and kneel down!"
Zhou Yong remained silent. Li Caiyun looked at her man and shut up silently.
After about half an hour, Zhang Guifang could not help but say, "Zhou Yong, that's enough. They are still children. If they are really frozen to death, won't you feel bad later?"
Li Baotian echoed: "That's right, let them come in! If you really want to vent your anger, just slap them a few times. Do you really need to make the children kneel outside in the middle of winter?"
Li Caiyun was muttering to herself, "You're almost as good as your stepfather!"
stepfather?
Zhou Yong glanced at Li Caiyun and said, "If they weren't my own, I wouldn't bother to care about them."
Li Caiyun was depressed. She looked at Zhou Yong and said nothing more.
Zhang Guifang sighed: "The children should be taught slowly when they are young. They are both sensible children. There must be a reason for doing this..."
Zhou Yong also knew that there was a reason, but since the siblings refused to explain the problem, he couldn't be blamed for being cruel.
After listening to her son-in-law's words, Zhang Guifang opened her mouth, sat on the sofa and fell silent.
Li Baotian shook his head, got up from the stove, called Zhang Guifang, and the couple went back to the bedroom one after another.
Li Jingan took a look and the boy quietly went back to the house.
"You can watch it here by yourself. I'm going back to the house."
Li Caiyun left this sentence and turned away. Zhou Yong said, "Turn off the lights in the living room."
"Turn it off yourself."
Li Caiyun has always been gentle and obedient to Zhou Yong's words, but today she rarely showed her stubborn side.
Zhou Yong raised his eyebrows secretly and went to turn off the light himself.
The night grew darker after the lights in the living room went out, and the courtyard was immersed in silent darkness.
Not long after, the lights in Li Baotian and Zhang Guifang's rooms were turned off, and then Li Caiyun's room fell into darkness.
"It's over. The lights are off. Does that mean we really have to kneel all night?"
Li Jingen started to feel scared when he saw that all the lights in the room were turned off.
Li Jingchu rubbed his hands: "Don't talk about turning off the lights, I'm almost frozen..."
"Brother, I'm cold too, I just didn't say it."
Li Jingen tightened his clothes and said this.
Zhou Kerou trembled and said, "Sister, if I freeze to death, remember to burn that Hero pen for me..."
