Ping nodded and said, "A child needs someone to be afraid of at home, otherwise, wouldn't they turn the world upside down? If a child isn't disciplined from a young age, it will be very difficult to discipline them later."
Xu Zhi nodded in agreement and said, "That's right. In the capital, there are so many powerful and wealthy families, and many of them have one or two good-for-nothings. It's because they were spoiled and pampered by their families when they were young that they ended up as unfilial descendants."
Madam Ping looked at the three children sitting side by side opposite her, her face becoming even more tender. "I've only had these three children over the years. I always thought they would learn proper manners so that they wouldn't be laughed at by others in the future. But now, I feel that if the three of them can grow up well, just like you said, how many years can they relax at their parents' home before they get married? The children aren't bad by nature, so how could they possibly lack manners in the future?"
Miao'er and Sui'er couldn't understand Ping's words, but He'er could. She turned her head shyly and looked out of the carriage window with the bamboo curtain hanging. Outside the window was a bustling street scene. Today was the day the Yun family was holding a grand banquet for guests at their villa outside the city. Many carriages had already passed by on the main street, hurrying towards the city gate.
After leaving the city gate and walking for another ten miles or so, a manor came into view in the distance. This was the location of the Yun family's villa.

The main gate of the manor was open, and people were getting off the carriages one after another and heading into the manor.
After getting off the carriage, Madam Ping and Xu Zhi, along with three young girls and several maids, headed towards the main gate.
Xu Zhi brought Bai Ying, Bai Guo, and Shi Liu with her today. Bai Ying was carrying a bundle containing a change of clothes for Xu Zhi. In the past, she would always bring a change of clothes to gatherings, for fear that her clothes would get dirty and she would be laughed at.
Ping was carrying a rather large bundle, which contained not only her clothes but also the clothes of her three children. At this moment, the two maids, Cuihong and Cuilu, were holding Miao'er's hand and Sui'er's hand respectively, while Shiliu was carrying the large bundle.
