Madam Wan said, "If you touch my Wan family's eldest grandson, you will have to pay a price. However, since this is your first offense, I will punish you by making you copy the Wan family's rules fifty times."

Madam Wan was definitely too soft-hearted to Cheng Feng and took care of him outside. If the same thing happened to Wan Lianxing or Wan Baiqian, it would not be as simple as copying the family rules fifty times as a punishment. It must be a severe punishment. Whoever touches her grandson would be touching her life. However, Cheng Feng grew up in the countryside, and the Wan family never raised him for a single day, so she could never get over the guilt in her heart.

Cheng Feng said, "Mom, this punishment is too much. I can still write after five times, but it will take me forever to write fifty times. Besides, I am not a writer. Please forgive me. I will definitely not tie him up next time."

Mrs. Wan said, "I don't care. If the fine is too small, I won't be able to explain to my grandson."

Cheng Feng said: "Is there anything about Cheng Youning here? Did he ask you to punish me like this?"

Mrs. Cheng said, "Even if he doesn't tell me, I'm going to do it anyway."

When Cheng Feng heard this, he wondered if it was really his son's complaint that played a role.

Cheng Feng said: "Mom, it's okay for you to punish me, but you can't indulge Cheng Youning. If you ignore this child now, he will go astray."

Madam Wan scolded: "My grandson is only five years old, how can you say that he is an unforgivable sinner?"

Cheng Feng said, "You don't have to defend Cheng Youning in front of Shang Xi and me. Shang Xi and I know what he is like. Tell me the truth. Did Cheng Youning get into trouble this time when he came back?"

After hearing this, the old couple kept silent.

Shang Xi said, "Mom and Dad, you can't indulge Cheng Youning like this. Cheng Feng and I went to the incense shop today and took a look at the account book. This Cheng Youning has learned to go to the shop owner to withdraw money. Mom and Dad, you all know about this, right?"

Master Wan said, "Do you know about this?"

Shang Xi said: "How could I not know? Every entry in the account is clearly written, and the date is also clear."

Master Wan said, "I have known about this for a long time, and I have acquiesced. Since my grandson has learned how to use money, even if he does not withdraw money from the account, we have to give him monthly money. I don't think this is a big deal."

Shang Xi asked: "Dad, isn't this a big deal?"

Master Wan said, "My grandson angered a teacher and drove him away a few days ago."

Shang Xi said: "Is there such a thing?"

Cheng Feng said, "He drove a teacher away? He wanted to go out and have fun, right?"

Madam Cheng said, "Master, you are such a chatterbox. How many children don't like to play? Can you sit still and listen to an old man in a private school humming and humming for an hour or two every day?"

Master Wan said, "Is that right? If you don't want to study, you can just say so. But why did you cut the old gentleman's beard?"

Shang Xi said in disbelief: "Cheng Youning cut the private school teacher's beard?"

Master Wan said, "That's right. The old man cried because he lost his beard. He packed his bags and said he would never teach Youning again. No amount of money could persuade him to come back."

Shang Xi said: "This is really treasonous. Just wait and see how I deal with him."

Madam Wan complained to Master Wan, "Your son and daughter-in-law have only been home for one day. What are you doing? It's just a beard. It will grow back after you cut it. Why make such a fuss?"

Master Wan said, "I'm not making a fuss, but if this continues, no one will be willing to teach him in the future."

Madam Wan said, "Huang Chenming is back. If you let your grandson get beaten by his parents because of this, be careful that your grandson will cut off your beard as well."

Mr. Wan raised his eyebrows, raised his hand to touch his beard and then stopped talking about this matter, because Cheng Youning was old and knew nothing. If he could cut the old man's beard, he could also cut his own. It would be embarrassing. Then he changed the subject and talked about other things with the young couple.

"I have heard from your uncle about what you have seen and heard in Mochun County. If he can use you, you must do your best to help him."

Cheng Feng said: "It was sent back to your grandson just to work for him."

Master Wan said, "I already know about this."

Cheng Feng said: "Since you already know, why do you punish me to copy the family rules?"

Master Wan said, "Let's put it this way. I also punished Cheng Youning for running away from the smuggling school. I will never tolerate anyone who makes a mistake."

Cheng Feng asked, "How did Dad punish me?"

Master Wan said, "We punished him by making him kneel in the ancestral hall for a day and a night, and also starved him for a day and a night, so that he would know the consequences and learn a lesson."

Cheng Feng asked: "Dad, does our family have an ancestral hall?"

Master Wan said: "I have cleaned up a room, but there is no ranking of the ancestors of the Wan family, only the basic family tree."

Cheng Feng said, "Dad, this is a cruel move. Cheng Youning has become much more obedient now."

Master Wan said, "Don't mention it. Cheng Youning accepted the punishment, but your mother scolded me for many days because of this matter."

Madam Wan said, "You are still complaining. Humph, don't mention how miserable your grandson is. He cried bitterly when he came out. I'm telling you this in advance. You two should listen to me. Cheng Youning cut off the old gentleman's beard. He was wrong, but your father also punished him. It was a heavy punishment, so let's just leave it at that. No one is allowed to bring up old scores with Cheng Youning. If I find out that any of you are still making things difficult for my grandson, I will not forgive you."

After hearing about Cheng Youning's recent actions, Shang Xi reached out to support her head. After hearing what Madam Wan said, her head became even bigger.

Master Wan said, "I think this child is very energetic, so I'll arrange more homework for him in the future."

Madam Wan said, "That's right. My grandson is very smart. He can learn anything you teach him. It's okay to give him more homework. But if you keep thinking about punishing him, I will definitely not tolerate you."

When Shang Xi and Cheng Feng returned, Cheng Youning was pretending to read a book with his back straight and his voice loud. This made the couple, who wanted to beat Cheng Youning up, lose some of their anger.

They stood at the door and watched for a while, then Shang Xi waved at Qiao Rong who was fanning Cheng Youning. Qiao Rong ran over when he saw him, and Shang Xi pulled him aside, "When did Cheng Youning start studying? Could it be that his father and I went to his grandparents' house, and he was afraid that his recent misdeeds would be exposed, so he put on a show for his father and me?"

Qiao Rong said, "It's not acting. Madam has misunderstood the young master. The young master has been studying since he came back. He is very serious and has been studying for more than an hour now."

Shang Xi said, "Is he still studying when we're not around?"

Qiao Rong said, "Read it. I will read it with the young master."
