Chapter 25 Shouzhe Seriously Reprimands Liu Ruolan
…
Wang Shouzhe's small courtyard is always full of flowers and lush plants. There is a touch of water vapor in the air, giving it an aura of vitality.
Many children of the Wang family's direct and direct lineages have a deep impression of this courtyard.
It's just because the head of the family, Wang Shouzhe, loves his juniors very much. Almost every child was held by him and sat on his lap when they were young, and they heard those magical and wonderful stories.
For the children, Wang Shouzhe has always been like the spring breeze and drizzle, caring for them carefully and irrigating them in all directions, so that they can grow vigorously and strive to give them a sunny, active and healthy childhood.
However, today, Wang Shouzhe was sitting in the pavilion with a gloomy face, unable to even drink his favorite fairy tea.
Wang Zongrui is the second son of Wang Shouzhe and the fourth child of him and Liu Ruolan.
He is fifty-two years old this year. He has been tall and strong since he was a child, just like a noble man from a troubled world. Although he now has two mustaches, he does not look wretched. Instead, he is more mature and stable.
After he married the legitimate daughter of the Liaoyuan Fang family, he also lived a down-to-earth life and gave birth to two sons and a daughter.
In general, except for a period of time when he was a child, he had always suspected that his father and Qi Ling Xiaoxue had some kind of ulterior past, and was beaten by his mother several times to the point where he once doubted whether he was Xiaoxue's son. Like his brother Wang Zongan, Wang Shouzhe didn't worry too much.
Now fifty-two years old, he has worked conscientiously in the "Changning United Manufacturing Company" for thirty years, and has gradually begun to take on leading roles, and is already regarded as one of the mainstays of the Wang family.
But today, he knelt miserably in front of his father Wang Shouzhe.
Sweat fell from his forehead drop by drop. His eyes were evasive and his expression was weak, as if he had made a big mistake.
It had been many, many years since he had seen his father so angry since that time when he was a child.
Even when my mother made her father's favorite "rock sugar, tremella and lotus seed soup" with her own hands and tried to please him and plead for him, his father glared back.
"Grandpa~Dad, Daddy..."
When Wang Yingxuan was "escorted" by her mother Fang, when she saw this scene, she shrank her neck in fear, her face turned pale, she couldn't even speak, and she looked as pitiful as a little quail.
"Father..." Fang also changed his fierceness in front of Wang Yingxuan, weakly bowed and said cautiously, "I have brought Yingxuan. You can teach her whatever you want, even if she is beaten to death. Okay, don’t make Zong Rui kneel down again."
Since she got married to Wang Zongrui, the couple has been loving and affectionate, and they have given birth to two sons and one daughter. She was also quite distressed to see her husband being punished. Especially when she knew that her father-in-law was reluctant to wear necklaces.
Wang Yingxuan on the side was so angry that she didn't get angry to death.
Mother, am I your biological child? In order to save your husband, you even sold your daughter...
After all, Mrs. Fang was his daughter-in-law, so Wang Shouzhe would not show her any mercy.
His face softened slightly, and he said soothingly: "Feng'er, you married into my Wang family. You have always been virtuous in running the family, acting thoughtfully, and being impeccable in your conduct. It's just today..."
As he said that, he secretly winked at Liu Ruolan, who was holding the lotus seed soup and was faintly angry.
After Liu Ruolan glanced at him, she put down the lotus seed soup, took Fang to the side, and comforted her softly: "Feng'er, don't worry about this. Although the old guy is angry, Zongrui is his son after all, he doesn't There would be no sense of proportion.”
In this way, Mrs. Fang felt relieved and glared at her daughter Wang Yingxuan angrily.
"Zong Rui, do you realize your mistake?"
Seeing that Fang was persuaded to go aside, Wang Shouzhe looked at Wang Zongrui with a straight face again, his expression as cold as iron.
"Dad." Wang Zongrui lowered his head and said tremblingly, "Zongrui knows he was wrong."
"Yingxuan is my granddaughter. She has become like this, and you, as the father, have a big responsibility." Wang Shouzhe said, "Since you admit your mistake, the punishment will be reduced by half. Come and enforce the family law, fifty sticks." "
"Yes, father."
Wang Zongrui took off his coat honestly, exposing his back.
"Here!" The two generals from the Lingtai Realm family who had been prepared for a long time came out in response, each carrying their own law sticks, and said to Wang Zongrui, "Young Master Zongrui, I'm offended."
"I deserve it. I don't blame you." Wang Zongrui dared not blame them. He quickly said politely, then closed his eyes and gritted his teeth and said, "Let's fight~"
Seeing this, the two Lingtai Realm generals started playing with their French sticks and hit Wang Zongrui on the back.
Just after the first blow, Wang Zongrui shivered, but he could only endure it and did not dare to use Xuan Qi to protect his body.
"Bah bang bang!"
The French stick was very strong, and after just a few sticks, the skin and flesh on Wang Zongrui's back began to burst.
Fang's head was dizzy and he almost fainted. Is this measured?
Fang immediately pinched Wang Yingxuan, who was still in shock and bewildered: "You damn girl, what are you doing standing still? Why don't you go and beg your grandfather for mercy? Your grandfather usually loves you the most. "
Wang Yingxuan's face turned pale, and she hurried to Wang Shouzhe's side, and took his arm crying: "Grandpa, grandpa. This is all Xuan'er's fault and has nothing to do with dad. I shouldn't be lazy, I shouldn't be Study hard, I shouldn't have threatened Mr. Xuexue several times~ I shouldn't have taken the lead in making trouble, wuwu~~Don't punish dad anymore..."
"Don't cry, don't cry~" Wang Shouzhe rubbed Wang Yingxuan's head distressedly, "It's normal for you to be young, playful, and have poor self-control. Grandpa doesn't blame you. If you do, blame your father for not being a good father. Responsibilities are due.”
After saying that, Wang Shouzhe turned his eyes and said coldly to the general: "Have you not had enough to eat? Every stick has been beaten solid for me. Who dares to make it easier for this evildoer who has not fulfilled his responsibilities as a father? I will make it difficult for him."
The generals' hearts trembled. They didn't dare to spare any effort, and they quickly increased their intensity. They just couldn't beat them with enough strength.
"Bah bang bang!"
Every stroke of the stick made the surrounding ground tremble slightly.
After a few more blows, Wang Zongrui finally couldn't bear it anymore and started to cry out in pain. However, in the face of his father's family law, he never dared to use his profound energy to resist.
"Mother, mother~" Mrs. Fang's face turned pale, and her heart ached with distress. She hurriedly pulled Liu Ruolan and begged, "Mother, you love your husband the most. Please beg for him." .If the fighting continues, Feng'er's husband will be dead."
Liu Ruolan also couldn't stand it, and said in a sullen voice: "Wang Shouzhe, Zong Rui has followed the rules since he was a child, and has never disobeyed you. Even though this time he did have some negligence regarding Xuan'er, but he is still between you and me after all. My biological son. Just hit him a few times and you'll be fine. If you hit him again, don't blame me for falling out."
The general of the family is well aware of the mistress's status and immediately stops his French stick upon hearing this.
Fang also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, half relieved. My mother-in-law interceded, and my husband was saved.
Unexpectedly.
When Wang Shouzhe heard this, he glanced at Liu Ruolan coldly, and said angrily: "Humph, what a loving mother, so many losers. Zong Rui is like this, isn't it your usual problem? This little beast can't even take care of his daughter, and why? What future can there be? It's better to beat him to death and pull him down. You are not allowed to interfere in this matter anymore and just stay aside."
Liu Ruolan was so angry that her delicate body trembled: "Wang Shouzhe, you are so cruel to me? Okay, okay...Wang Shouzhe, since you dislike me so much, why don't I go back to the Liu family now and let your ears be clean..."
"Humph, that's unreasonable. If you want to go back, go back!" Wang Shouzhe seemed to be angry, but he did not give in, which was rare. He turned to the general and said, "What are you doing standing there? Could it be that you want to go against your will?" Is it an order from the head of the household?"
The general was really frightened now.
They have been the head of the family for decades, and this is the first time they have seen the head of the family reprimanding their mistress like this. At this time, they didn't dare to delay at all, and hurriedly hit him with sticks.
"I can't stay in this house any longer! Wang Shouzhe, I'm waiting for your divorce letter at Liu's..." Liu Ruolan suddenly became angry with embarrassment.
"Mother, mother, don't be excited. Father, he just said it out of anger. Don't take it seriously." Fang's face turned pale with fright.
This matter made even her father-in-law and mother-in-law make such a fuss. No matter how much she felt sorry for her husband, she would never dare to persuade him again.
Especially the father-in-law's words, "A loving mother often loses her son" made Fang's heart tremble.
The fact that Yingxuan's temperament has developed to this point and her grades are so bad are inseparable from her protection and the pampering and pampering of her by many relatives of her mother's family, the Fang family.
At this moment, the most frightened person at the scene was Wang Yingxuan.
Not only had she seen such a scene before, but she had never even thought about it. She was so frightened that she didn't even dare to cry, and she didn't even dare to act coquettishly and plead with her grandfather again.
At this moment, there was only one sentence left in her mind: It's over, it's over, dad was beaten like this, can she still have a good life in the future?
Fifty sticks, strong and sturdy, one stick at a time and a lot of beatings.
Wang Zongrui's back was already torn apart, and the blood was dripping down his back to the ground. His forehead and face were covered in painful cold sweat, and his face was even more pale.
He didn't dare to treat her, so he put on his clothes tremblingly, saluted Wang Shouzhe and said, "My son, thank you very much for your father's teachings. I will keep this lesson in mind and never do it again."
"Now that you have learned your lesson, get up." Wang Shouzhe said lightly, "If you turn around and injure yourself, you must treat what should be treated. Don't leave the root of the disease behind."
"Thank you father for your consideration."
Only then did Wang Zongrui dare to stand up and bow deeply to Wang Shouzhe again.
Then, he looked at the frightened Wang Yingxuan with cold eyes: "Father, I still have some private matters to deal with at home. Please forgive me for resigning first."
Wang Yingxuan's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized something was wrong.
She turned around and was about to run away when her father, Wang Zongrui, reached out and grabbed her, then lifted her up upside down. No matter how much she fluttered, it was to no avail.
Wang Shouzhe drank the fairy tea and turned a blind eye to this: "If Rui'er has something to do, go ahead and do it."
"My child, please leave."
After Wang Zongrui said that, he carried Wang Yingxuan upside down and strode towards his yard with a gloomy face.
When Fang saw it, her face turned pale with fright.
After hurriedly telling Liu Ruolan and Wang Shouzhe, she ran back quickly. With such a posture, if it were half a beat later, wouldn't the precious daughter be beaten to death by her husband?
As the second son, the courtyard where Wang Zongrui's family lived was not far from Wang Shouzhe's courtyard, only a few dozen feet apart.
Not long after, Wang Yingxuan's screams like a ghost crying and a wolf howling came from a distance in his yard. Along with the screams, there were also sounds of begging for mercy and assurances such as "Daddy, I won't dare anymore", "I will study hard and never be naughty".
Then, it was Fang's cry: "Wang Zongrui, Xuan'er is also my daughter, if you continue to fight like this, someone will die. You, you bastard, I will fight with you!"
"Stay aside! As the saying goes, a loving mother often loses her son. If it weren't for you and the pampering of Fang's relatives and elders, why would Wang Yingxuan be like this?" Wang Zongrui's cold and angry voice also rang through the sky.
"Wang Zongrui, you, you dare to hurt me... I want to go back to my parents' home. I will take Yingxuan back to my parents' home right now. If you want, you can give me a divorce letter."
"You want to write a divorce letter, right? Okay, I'll write it to you right now."
"Wang, you are now very capable. You are about to take over the [Changning United Manufacturing Department] and become a big shot. Are you ready to take the opportunity to find a new wife? It is in vain that I, Fang Xunfeng, have followed you for decades. , gave birth to two sons and one daughter for you!”
"It's unreasonable, whatever you want to say."
"Dad, mother, ugh~ it's all my fault, I don't dare anymore, I promise to study hard and respect every teacher in the family..." Wang Yingxuan was really scared at this time and cried heartbrokenly. Well, if this continues, I'm afraid my family will be lost.
"You are not the fault of this damn girl. I'll beat you to death." Wang Zongrui said angrily, "I don't even have a wife anymore, so what use is your daughter?"
"That's right. If you didn't act like this girl all day long, how could your father be beaten so badly? Our loving couple will be broken up by you. Husband, give me the cane, and I will be angry."
Then, Wang Yingxuan, who successfully attracted the firepower, successfully achieved the life achievement of "being beaten by a mixed double".
Her cries and screams spread hundreds of feet around, quickly attracting many members of the Wang clan to check out the situation.
Seeing Wang Yingxuan crying so miserably, the elders in the clan couldn't bear it and wanted to persuade her to make peace.
But after hearing why Wang Yingxuan was beaten wildly, and even caused a feud between the head of the Shouzhe family and Mrs. Ruolan, their expressions suddenly became serious, and they silently returned to their yard one by one and brought the children over. Ask about the situation.
For those children whose grades and condition were pretty good, the adults also breathed a sigh of relief and immediately gave them a few words of encouragement. Naturally, they would brag when they went out.
Those whose children's performance and condition were not good, immediately began to beat the children with a black face.
Zong Rui is the second son of the head of the family. He was beaten like this by the head of the family for failing to discipline his children. What if someone else's child gets into trouble again or does not study well, and the news reaches the ears of the head of the family, Shouzhe?
That night, I don’t know how many children were beaten by their parents because of their mistakes, big or small, past mistakes, or even accidentally stepping into the yard with their left foot first.
The cries of the children came and went continuously, resounding over the entire Wang family's main residence, scattering the dark clouds in the sky, revealing the bright moon.
This night has become an unforgettable collective memory for many children of the same age.
In the records of the inheritance of the two major internal societies of the future Wang family, the famous [Tiannu League] and [Spring Youth Group], there is also an explicit record of September 21st, the 3216th year of the Great Qianlong period. , the "ordeal" experienced this night.
When the "giant ancestors" of the Tiannu League and the Spring Youth Group who had experienced this night recalled this night, they all called it "the prelude to the endless winter night" and "the night when my unruly youth left me." 】.
In the long years, because of this night, several masterpieces that have been widely circulated have been produced.
Wang Yingxuan, a generation of Valkyrie who has gone down in history, even described in detail the pain of this night, as well as the hardships this night brought to her and the hope for her future life in her famous book "How the Valkyrie Was Made". The influence of the road has since laid the foundation for the path of the Valkyrie.
And this book has also become a winning guide for parents all over the world who have worked hard to "hope that their sons will become dragons and their daughters will become phoenixes." It has lit up a bright "lighthouse of light" for them, pointed out the direction for them, and made them No more confused.
Of course, this is something.
And now, this night that cost countless young and girls in future generations a heavy price has not yet passed.
In the small courtyard, Wang Shouzhe listened to the sounds of small families beating their children together, and a happy smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He tasted the fairy tea happily.
It's not easy, it's not easy~
He, Wang Shouzhe, really worked hard and devoted himself to the future and foundation of his family.
Now that the family has grown and there are more and more children, how can Wang Shouzhe manage them all by himself? Especially in the future, as the Wang family reproduces from generation to generation, sooner or later there will be thousands of children. How will he manage them?
Naturally, every family should contribute, and everyone should take responsibility for the future of the children.
Although Wang Zongrui's cruel trick was painful, it was not unfair. Who could tell his daughter that he couldn't teach her well?
However, Wang Shouzhe knew better that the main reason why Wang Yingxuan was so confused came from Fang Xunfeng and a group of Fang relatives behind her. It is precisely because of their excessive pampering that Wang Yingxuan becomes more and more lawless.
But Fang Xunfeng is his and Ruolan's daughter-in-law after all. How can a father-in-law teach his daughter-in-law a lesson in this world?
He had no choice but to beat his son to death, which would serve as a warning to the monkeys. At the same time, he set off a storm, sounded the clarion call for reform of the family's children's education, and made the clan members aware of the importance of this matter.
Just when Wang Shouzhe was feeling proud, Liu Ruolan stood beside him without knowing it, holding the reheated lotus seed soup in her hand.
"Madam, what do you think of your husband's plan today? Shouldn't it be worthy of the word 'big spirit'?" Wang Shouzhe waved his sleeves, with a sense of accomplishment that "Shou Zhe's wise plan will set a foundation for ten thousand years", and then looked at it again Xiang Liu Ruolan said, "Of course, this little trick for my husband, if the wife doesn't sacrifice her own image to cooperate, there is absolutely no chance of success."
As he spoke, he picked up the lotus seed soup and drank it in one gulp, smacking his lips and feeling warm in his heart.
Although this lotus seed soup had a "unique flavor", the lady really felt sorry for him and even warmed it up again for him.
His heart suddenly felt warm and endless motivation arose.
For this happy little family and warm everyone, no matter how hard and tired Wang Shouzhe is, what does it matter?
"Husband, you've finished drinking the lotus seed soup, and you've finished blowing the cowhide." Liu Ruolan's eyes evoked a hint of coldness, "It's time to figure out what happened to you for being cruel to me."
"Madam... I am here for my husband for Yingxuan." Wang Shouzhe felt a chill on his back and suddenly had a bad premonition.
"But you are cruel to me."
Liu Ruolan took a step closer casually, with a hint of sternness in her eyes.
"Madam, I am doing this for the Wang family's children." Wang Shouzhe took a step back inadvertently, feeling faintly guilty.
"I said, you are cruel to me."
The coldness on Liu Ruolan's body became stronger and stronger.
"Madam, I am doing this for the eternal foundation of the family! The most important thing is that the two of us discussed this plan together, and you agreed." Wang Shouzhe felt that he was extremely wronged.
"I know, but it's a fact that you are cruel to me."
"Liu Ruolan, don't think I'm easy to bully. It's true that you are a proud man, but your husband is not someone to be trifled with."
"Haha~ Then try it." Liu Ruolan sneered.
"Just give it a try." Wang Shouzhe sneered back.
Then, in the courtyard of the patriarch Wang Shouzhe, the sound of ping-pong-pong fighting could be heard, and the patriarch would say from time to time, "Liu Ruolan, don't go too far, my husband is giving in to you."
Then, there was another burst of fighting sounds, mixed with painful screams.
Such a big movement naturally alarmed most of the clan members.
Many tribesmen are worried and their expressions are particularly solemn. Sure enough, because of the education of Wang's children, the head of the family and his wife began to get into trouble.
It’s really not easy for the head of the Shouzhe family~
It's a pity that they can't help if they go up there.
After listening for a while, the tribesmen couldn't bear to listen any more, so they had to close their doors and windows, pretending not to hear.
After thinking about it, they brought the child who had just been beaten over and beat him again, which was considered as indirect support for the head of the Shouzhe family.
Even Ancestor Longyan, who had just returned to Longyan Residence from outside the territory and took a short rest, couldn't help but frown and feel heartbroken after hearing what happened.
"Shou Zhe, this kid, has a hard time keeping the family's foundation strong~~ I, Wang Longyan, can't help you much. I can only practice hard and strive to achieve the Purple Mansion Realm as soon as possible and become the true protector of the family."
Ancestor Longyan secretly made up his mind, and then he closed his six senses, blocked Wang Shouzhe's secret signal for help, and began to enter the retreat cultivation mode.
"Liu Ruolan, don't be ignorant! This is the main house, and I will give you three points in front of the clan." Wang Shouzhe, who was asking for help everywhere, had no other choice, so he had to resort to the last "trick", "If you have the ability, , let’s go to Shuiyue Tiange to compete.”
"Hmph~ You guys often take advantage of my sleep to have secret meetings~"
As soon as Wang Shouzhe finished speaking, the texture of Liu Ruolan's voice suddenly changed. The voice was so small that it only fell on Wang Shouzhe's ears.
"Ruoling? You're going to suffer!"
Wang Shouzhe's heart suddenly dropped to the bottom.
…
