On the second day of the Shanfang incident, Hong Lucheng took the initiative to come to the Chen family to apologize for the despicable behavior Hong Yanwu had committed.
He came here forcefully, feeling embarrassed about his son's fault and also feeling unspeakable about what he wanted to say.
He had never mentioned his son's bad nature to Chen Deyuan before. He originally wanted to save some face for himself, but who would have expected that the "thief from home" would actually be a broken spittoon filled with pickled things.
A dirty smell makes you feel sick and embarrassed.
Fortunately nothing happened, otherwise the house was high and Chen Liquan fell asleep again. If he fell, it would be no joke.
Hong Lucheng had already made up his mind. He felt that even if the Chen family and the Hong family broke off, he could no longer keep the Chen family in the dark, otherwise it might harm their children in the future.
My son knows it himself. Who can bear this rebellion and lack of responsibility?
So after sitting down, Hong Lucheng told Chen Deyuan and his wife Hong Yanwu's "history of crimes" and his worries about how to discipline him.
After listening to these words, Chen Deyuan and his wife realized how "difficult to beat" Hong Yanwu was (Dingxing dialect, meaning bad), but the couple showed completely different attitudes towards this.
Quanzi's mother, like other neighbors of Guanyin Yuan, could not tolerate Hong Yanwu's behavior. She thought her son was a good boy, but she was worried that he would become a bad boy by following Hong Yanwu, and she was also worried that his son would be bullied and deceived.
But things in the world are very strange. Some people like Sun Monkey and others like Zhu Bajie. Chen Deyuan himself has been in trouble since he was a child, so he is quite rare towards Hong Yanwu, and even feels very proud of Hong Yanwu's past "great achievements"
interesting.
On the contrary, he was quite worried that Chen Liquan would inherit his grandfather's submissive nature. If that happened, he would not only have to work hard for a lifetime, but also suffer from a lifetime of cowardice.
"Child, how could you have any bad intentions? The more you mess around with the boys, the more promising you will be. If you are willing to do so, I will beat this boy up if he tries to mess around with you again!"
Chen Deyuan said this, as if he was joking but also comforting.
"You can fight."
As soon as Hong Lucheng finished speaking, he sighed again, looking very helpless.
"But it's a thing that only needs to be eaten and not beaten. It's useless!"
"Don't say that. How can a child not be afraid of being beaten? Besides, I also got news. I heard that the higher authorities are asking schools to resume classes. Maybe once he goes to school, this kid will become sensible."
"School starts? When?" Hong Lucheng's eyes lit up, and a glimmer of hope emerged.
"About October, various factories have already begun to discuss sending labor propaganda teams to schools. Don't tell me, I may be in charge of these bad boys in the future..."
As soon as he came out of Chen's house, Hong Lucheng felt half relieved.
In his opinion, going to school is more about receiving some discipline than literacy. A real person must be literate, and a promising child must also behave like an adult.
As for Young Master Hong Yanwu, he had misbehaved and had to be dealt with by the school. However, classes were suspended in time for the "movement", and the teacher was dealt with first. Fortunately, Chen Deyuan actually brought this good news, which was simply the same.
At a life-saving straw.
When he returned to the east courtyard, Hong Lucheng's sorrowful expression had disappeared. Looking at Hong Yanwu who was hanging out in the jujube tree, he did not scold him for the first time. On the contrary, he couldn't help but make a weird joke.
"Look at you kid making trouble again! Let me tell you, school is about to start, you have to go to school..."
"Good thing." The old man's wife went out to wash vegetables. She happened to overhear it and helped scare Hong Yanwu.
"Let's see if you continue to toss, kid? I'll tie you up with a rope all day long and ask the teacher to take care of you. That's right! If you're still naughty, I'll make you stand and hit you with a big paddle!"
"Who are you scaring?"
Although he was still stubborn with his words, Hong Yanwu felt cold in his heart.
He is not stupid, and his father and Aunt Bian understand what they mean. It turns out that when you enter school, you immediately put on the bridle and the ox on the yoke, and you have to be disciplined and controlled. You can no longer live in the underwater house, and you can no longer act as wildly as you want.
When he thought of this, he immediately lost his mood, couldn't help but sneak down from the tree and hid in the door of his house.
Unexpectedly, even his dearest and dearest mother did not spare him. When she found out that school was about to start, Wang Yunlin also gave him a lecture.
"Third brother, you are about to become a student, do you hear me? There must be rules for everything. The teacher is not as easy to talk to as the rest of the family. If you don't do something right, I will take care of you. Be careful, study hard, and be a good boy, do you hear me?
?”
Hong Yanwu didn't dare to disobey his mother. He lowered his head, curled his nose, and felt aggrieved. He twisted his hands back and forth until his fingers turned white, but he understood better than anyone else.
Dad is really looking forward to keeping him around. Auntie is gloating about his misfortune. Mom's words are always an afterthought.
What about being a great person when I grow up? She would be relieved if I could be obedient. But God knows what is going on in school!
The eldest brother and the second brother both went to school, but they weren't eaten either?
What kind of thing is a teacher? It can’t be a goblin!
Want to cure me? Let’s see!
However, although Hong Yanwu was still so stubborn at this time, it was not him anymore after a while.
Because all his imagination was filled with the horror in school. And gradually, he had regarded the books as imps, imagined the teacher as a monster, and completely regarded the school as a graveyard in the wilderness.
There is no place scarier than a dark hospital morgue.
The fear that evolved from the initial worry was so overwhelming that he couldn't care less about the embarrassment of forgetting Chen Liquan in the room yesterday, and went to reveal his inner feelings to his only friend with a shy face.
of weakness.
"Why, why do children have to come to school? Why do they have to be controlled by teachers? Why do they have to study? Don't you want us to play alone? We don't even want to go to the room and have fun?!"
Chen Liquan didn't care about what happened yesterday. Instead, he wanted to give his friend some comfort. But he couldn't make up lies, so he could only say, "Don't worry, my father said that all children have to go to school. All schools have to go to school."
There is a teacher. But after school, we can still practice swordsmanship, right?"
It can be said that Chen Liquan's Mandarin has made great progress, and his Dingxing accent is now very rare. But this sentence did not make Hong Yanwu relax at all.
Because as long as he makes a mistake, he will be punished, or he will be led by the teacher like an ox and a horse, so why should he want to practice swordsmanship?
At this time, Hong Yanwu became more and more afraid of going to school, and his little heart was about to explode. And he didn't know why, but he was very afraid. He just knew intuitively that play and freedom were originally his.
Rights, but why are they deprived of them by "schools"?
"I can't run away!" His heart was full of sorrow and he couldn't help but lament, waiting for the disaster to come.
Chen Liquan felt even more uncomfortable when he saw Hong Yanwu's appearance. He became more energetic and patted his chest to make guarantees.
"Don't be afraid, I will still play with you after school. The teacher doesn't care about me, but I will also play with you, no nonsense! Let's play whatever you say, even if you take me to the room again.
, we brothers will always be good friends, right?"
Hong Yanwu seemed to be grasping at straws. "You said that? Definitely?"
Chen Liquan nodded firmly. "Definitely!"
I don't know whether it was because he was moved or because he regretted what happened yesterday, but Hong Yanwu burst into tears immediately.
