Sun Luochang walked slowly to the table in the courtyard and sat down. He looked at his grandson who bowed his head and said nothing, and said in a deep voice: "What a good grandson of mine! I competed and bet with others in the Wude Department and lost five hundred taels of silver.
Not to mention, I almost recognized an extra grandfather!"
"There is such a thing..." Sun Xingba's mother's face was filled with astonishment, and her hand immediately covered her lips.
Aunt Mei did the same thing and looked at Sun Xingba in surprise, forgetting to even blink.
At this time, Sun Xingba was ashamed and annoyed, and his face was extremely ugly. However, he did not dare to contradict his grandfather at all, so he could only stand in the yard obediently and wait for the punishment.
"Is this true?" Sun Xingba's mother asked angrily. She knew that what the old man said was definitely true, but she just wanted to hear her son admit it himself.
When his mother asked, Sun Xingba had no choice but to lower his head and nod, which was regarded as admitting that this was indeed the case.
Next, Sun Luochang narrated the whole process of the endurance bet between Sun Xingba and Chai Yan...
Sun Xingba was stunned after hearing these words. Grandpa was able to explain many details that he didn't pay attention to clearly, as if he was watching at the scene and immersed himself in the scene!
"Xing'er, is there anything wrong with what I said?" Sun Luochang asked in a low voice.
Sun Xingba shook his head and said weakly: "No..."
Sun Xingba's mother was so angry that she was shaking: "You...you, you..."
Sun Luochang said: "Daughter-in-law, Amei, please go out first. I have something to say to Xing'er..."
Sun Xingba's mother and Aunt Mei exchanged glances, saluted the old man at the same time, and then left the yard together.
Before leaving the courtyard, the two of them did not forget to take a look at Sun Xingba, but Sun Xingba was still hanging in the middle of the courtyard dejectedly, as if he had not seen anyone.
"You also go out." Sun Luochang ordered the maid beside him.
The maid bowed and left the courtyard silently.
The courtyard suddenly became quiet. Sun Luochang looked at his wilting grandson and couldn't help but sigh to himself.
"Stand over here!" Sun Luochang said without a smile.
Sun Xingba moved two steps towards his grandfather in a rather funny manner, but his body was still facing away from him, not daring to face him head-on.
"Turn around!" Sun Luochang said again.
Sun Xingba was stunned, and then slowly turned around, but his head was still hanging down.
"Raise your head and look at me!" Sun Luochang looked at his grandson with a straight face, feeling angry and funny in his heart.
Sun Xingba raised his head slightly, and as soon as his eyes met his grandfather's, he ducked away again.
Sun Luochang asked: "Tell me, what grudge do you have against that Chai Yan?"
"No..." Sun Xingba whispered: "My grandson has no enmity or enmity against him..."
"No injustice or enmity?" Sun Luochang twitched the corner of his mouth and asked: "Then why do you want to provoke him again and again?"
Sun Xingba hurriedly denied: "No, my grandson doesn't..."
"Bang!"
Sun Luochang slapped his palm on the table, which not only interrupted Sun Xingba's words, but also caused the tea in the teacup on the table to spill out.
"You still dare to say you don't?" Sun Luochang pointed at him and said, "Do you really think that I don't know what happened on the day of the examination for joining the company?"
"Assessment for joining the company..." Sun Xingba was immediately stunned. It turned out that his grandfather had an spy around him, and his every move could not escape his eyes.
Sun Luochang said angrily: "How many times have I told you that you are not allowed to cause trouble, but what about you? You insist on making trouble! That Chai Yan has never met you at all, but you have repeatedly provoked and ridiculed him. What on earth do you have in mind?"
"
"I...I don't have any peace of mind..."
Sun Xingba provoked Chai Yan for no reason at that time. In fact, he simply thought that he was short and easy to bully and wanted to take advantage of him for fun.
Unexpectedly, Sun Xingba himself became a joke!
Sun Luochang's eyes were full of worry, and his chest rose and fell rapidly before he calmed down a little: "Originally, I didn't intend to mention this, but you didn't know how to restrain yourself. Just a few days after you were stable, you came to trouble Chai Yan again.
It’s okay now, you’re completely defeated and you have nothing to say?”
"Grandpa, grandson...grandson is just unwilling..."
Sun Xingba was inferior to Chai Yan in many aspects, but he was always unconvinced.
Sun Luochang taught him a lesson: "Didn't I say that? In this world, there is heaven and earth, and there are people outside the world! Even if you were first in everything in the imperial guard camp before, it doesn't mean that there won't be powerful people in the future.
There is someone who can surpass you! No, there is one right now..."
Sun Xingba was speechless. Now it seemed that except for horse riding, Chai Yan seemed to be inferior to him in other aspects, or even surpassed him.
Sun Luochang's mouth became dry after talking a lot, so he picked up the tea bowl on the table and started drinking.
Putting down the tea bowl, Sun Luochang asked: "Whose idea was it to use money to resolve this matter?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Sun Luochang felt that the question was nonsense: "Hey! Look, what I asked must be someone else's idea. It's weird that you can make such a turn with your brain..."
"Grandpa, how did you know?"
Sun Xingba was very puzzled. Only he and Chai Yan knew how to solve this problem with money. Why would grandpa...
"How do I know? Do you think I am you? So stupid..." Sun Luochang glared at his grandson angrily, spit out his breath and then slowly said: "You two, in front of me at that time
So many people talked about it, and then turned around, Chai Yan didn't need you to fulfill the agreement... Now, as soon as you come back, you will ask your mother to borrow money. Anyone with a brain can think about it.
You know, if it’s not spending money to eliminate disasters, what is it?”
Sun Xingba said sincerely: "It turns out that nothing can escape Grandpa's eyes..."
"Hmph! If I were that Chai Yan, I would never ask you for only seven hundred taels of silver!" Sun Luochang said coldly.
Sun Xingba scratched the back of his head and said: "Grandpa, in fact, he only asked for five hundred taels from his grandson, and the other two hundred taels were returned to others..."
So Sun Xingba revealed the dilemma of not having enough money at that time. He said that since he promised others to pay back double the money, he must do it!
After hearing this, Sun Luochang was silent for a moment, then turned around and called the maid who was guarding outside the courtyard, and told her to get a thousand taels of silver notes and bring them to Sun Xingba.
"Grandpa, you don't need that much, seven hundred taels is enough..." Sun Xingba said hurriedly.
Sun Luochang said with a straight face: "Stop talking nonsense, I've returned the seven hundred taels, what will you use for yourself? Are you going to borrow it from others?"
After a while, the maid brought out a thousand taels of silver notes.
Sun Luochang asked his grandson to take it and warned: "Xing'er, remember to thank Chai Yan for me when you pay back the money..."
"Thank him? Why?" Sun Xingba suddenly got angry. He couldn't understand.
Sun Luochang said seriously: "Stupid! If others didn't give you a step down, grandpa's old face would have been completely disgraced by you!"
