Master of Rebirth

It was already late at night, but the Wang family did not stop.

Seeing Wang Long kneeling in the ancestral hall, Wang Li felt his heart twisted into twists, and almost passed out.She didn't understand why Wang Yao didn't punish Wang Qi severely, but punished Wang Long instead of chasing after him to Nanyuan and telling Wang Qi wrong?

"Long'er, what are you doing kneeling here, get up quickly." Wang Lishi covered his heart with one hand, and was about to pull Wang Long up with the other.

Also confused was Wang Long, who was caught off guard and called to kneel as a punishment, and his heart was overwhelmed.It's a pity that it was Wang Yao's order, and Wang Long didn't dare to disobey, so he could only let Mrs. Xue secretly send a letter to Mrs. Wang and Li, and he pretended to come over.

Seeing Mrs. Wang and Li came now, Wang Long was secretly happy, but pretended to be pitiful, "Grandma, Long'er can't get up, third uncle made Long'er kneel in front of Grandpa and Uncle's tablets for two hours."

"Two hours, can I still have that leg? It's the New Year's Eve, and it's so cold, what does the third child want to do? Why does he have to hold on to the child." Seeing that Wang Long didn't dare to get up, Wang Li was anxious.

Mrs. Xue persuaded from the side: "Grandma, after all, it is the order of the third uncle. If the husband gets up, wouldn't it be disrespectful to the third uncle? From the perspective of my concubine, you should go and persuade the third uncle."

Mrs. Xue's words awakened Mrs. Wang and Li. She didn't want to delay for a moment, and hurried to Nanyuan.After walking for a few steps, he turned back and ordered the servants: "What are you all doing so stupidly, why don't you hurry up and bring a charcoal basin for the young master."

"Grandma, there's no need." Wang Long said, thinking that he wouldn't be able to kneel for long.

Mrs. Wang and Li refused, "How can I do that? In such a cold day, it must not be frozen."

After helping Wang Long to set up the charcoal basin, he changed a thick cushion for him, and asked Mrs. Xue to bring a cloak for Wang Long to put on. Then Mrs. Wang and Li hurried to Nanyuan.

"Old man, what's going on here, what are you doing to punish Long'er?" As soon as he entered the door, Wang Lishi pulled Wang Yao's sleeve and questioned.

Unexpectedly, just after he punished Wang Long with his front foot, and before he had a sip of tea, Wang Lishi rushed to intercede with his back foot.Even if Wang Yao had prepared in advance, he also felt that Mrs. Wang and Li came sooner.

"My concubine pays my respects to third uncle." Shi Xue saluted Wang Yao respectfully.

"Get up." Looking at Xue Shi coldly, Wang Yao naturally knew that she had reported the letter, and felt a little unhappy.Standing up and helping Wang Li to sit down, Wang Yao said: "Punish him, of course there is a reason to punish him, so mother should not ask more questions."

"How can this be done." Wang Lishi was unwilling, and said nonsense: "Today's matter has been made clear, it was Qi'er who deliberately framed Long'er, even if it took ten thousand steps back, it was Jia's and that Jia Fugui's fault. It has nothing to do with Long'er, why should Long'er be punished?"

"How could it have nothing to do with him." Wang Yao said seriously: "Whether Qi'er was framed or not, that Jia Fugui went to Dongyuan by himself, no one forced him."

"This..." Wang Li was tongue-tied.

Wang Yao didn't give her a chance to continue talking, and continued: "I have already sent someone to inquire about that Jia Fugui, and he is a rascal. Ever since Long'er married his sister, Jia Fugui has been given to Jia Fugui in our Wang family's shop. Arranged an errand. I heard that he took advantage of our family's influence to cause disasters for the township, and the county complained. Jia Fugui caused those troubles because of Long'er's connivance. If he continues like this, it will be corrupt. What matters is the reputation of our royal family."

"Jia Fugui is Jia Fugui, how can you ruin the reputation of our Wang family." Wang Li's expression was displeased.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang and Li were so unclear, Wang Long was also angry: "Jia Fugui is a gangster who walks around the streets, a person who is like a grasshopper. If he didn't have Long'er's support, would he have the guts to bully men and women in the county? His son has already checked clearly that Jia Fugui did not do serious things all day long, and got involved with a group of local hooligans, doing evil everywhere in the name of the Wang family all day long. Not only did Long'er ignore such a disaster, but he even Bullying to my elder brother. In my opinion, the penalty of kneeling for two hours is too light, and I should just kneel down to dawn."

"Jia Fugui's incident is all Qi'er's fault, it was all provoked by Qi'er. You don't blame Qi'er, why do you insist on holding on to Long'er?" Thinking that this matter was caused by Wang Qi, but Wang Long was involved Kneeling as punishment, Wang Qi behaved like a normal person and let Wang Long protect her all the time. Wang Li was upset, and began to wipe away tears as she spoke.

Seeing that Wang Lishi had transferred Wang Qi by mistake in a blink of an eye, Wang Yao almost laughed angrily, "Mother, what's the matter with Qier. Is Qier arranging an errand for Jia Fugui in the store? You said it too, Qi'er never interferes with the family business, does Qi'er have that ability?"

"I..." Wang Li was speechless for a while.

Wang Yao continued: "Jia Fugui is nothing more than that. I heard that his sister Jia Shi was born as an actress. Mother, don't look at it. She is not even worthy of being a housekeeper with this status. How can she enter our Wang family?" Do you think that our status as a merchant is not shabby enough? I heard that the Jia family was the concubine chosen by the mother herself for Long Er. My son really doesn't know what you think. There are so many innocent people. If the woman doesn't choose, she will find an actress for Long'er."

What Wang Yao said was very serious. Back then, Mrs. Wang and Li agreed to join Mrs. Jia, but it was because Wang Long liked it, so she didn't think much about it.Now that Wang Yao mentioned it, he realized that his actions were inappropriate.But now I can't control so much, Wang Lishi habitually blames all the faults on Wang Qi.

"It's not all Qi'er's fault, it's all his fault." Wang Lishi blurted out.

After hearing this, Wang Yao was really happy: "Mother's words are so unreasonable, what does it have to do with Qi'er? If Qi'er provoked the Jia family, why did she marry Long'er? Could it be that she Is it okay to provoke Qi'er first and then climb up to Long'er? Then this kind of indiscreet woman should be thrown out of the house."

Only then did Wang Lishi realize that he had said the wrong thing, and he almost bit off his tongue in regret.No matter how stupid she is, she can't let Wang Yao know that it was Wang Long who took his love and his eldest brother's woman.

Naturally, Wang Yao didn't expect that his words would come true. Seeing that Wang and Li were silently wiping away tears, he had to add a cup of tea to her, and persuaded her in a soft tone: "Mother, you are not right about our family's situation." I don’t know. Because of this merchant’s status, his son has been repeatedly looked down upon by the court. If he hadn’t been protected by his father-in-law, he would have never been able to escape. Since ancient times, officialdom is like a battlefield, and it is true that people can find faults. If these bad words spread to In the ears of my father-in-law, it makes others feel that our Wang family is bullying others and doing harm to the village, which is not good for the son's future. Don't blame the son for being cruel, the son is also thinking of Long Er and our Wang family."

Compared with Wang Long, Wang Lishi naturally cared more about the future of her youngest son. Although she didn't understand the affairs of the court, seeing what Wang Yao said was serious, she was a little hesitant.

Mrs. Xue had always regarded Jia Miner as a thorn in her side, but now that Wang Yao disliked her siblings so much, she was naturally amused, and hurriedly added to the flames: "Grandma, it's all Jia Fugui's fault after all. For the sake of my husband and our Wang family, you don't have to be angry with the third uncle because of Jia Fugui and Jia Shi. Jia Fugui can't even enter our house. I will discipline Jia carefully after I become a concubine, and don't let her cause trouble, so please Don't worry, grandma."

Wang Yao rarely came back once a year, and Wang Li didn't want to make trouble with his son, but he couldn't worry about Wang Long, so he couldn't help saying: "But Long'er..."

Knowing what she was thinking, Wang Yao pretended to say: "Mother, don't worry, Long'er is also my nephew after all, this time it's just a small punishment and big punishment, let him go back later."

Seeing that Wang Yao was relieved, Wang Lishi was relieved.

After personally sending Wang Lishi back, watching her rest, Wang Long said to the attendants beside him, "Go to the ancestral hall and inform Long'er to let him kneel until tomorrow morning."

The attendant said hesitantly: "Kneel until tomorrow, I'm afraid the Second Young Master won't be able to bear it."

"I wanted to punish him to kneel for an hour, and a little punishment would be fine. I didn't expect him to dare to play tricks on me, and even alarmed the old lady. Long'er's mind is alive, but he can't be serious. If you don't Control, you will suffer a lot in the future. You go and tell him, if you don’t kneel until dawn, you don’t need to recognize me as the third uncle.” Wang Yao said coldly.

The attendant was still a little worried, "What if the second young master disturbs the old lady again?"

Wang Yao snorted coldly, "Long'er is a little clever, but he's not stupid either. If you touch him a little bit, if he still dares to make trouble with his mother, I'll definitely not forgive him lightly."

After hearing this, the attendant went to deliver the message in peace.

Full of hope, Wang Long counted on Mrs. Wang and Li to help him intercede, thinking that he would be able to go back after kneeling for a long time.Who would have thought that it would take almost an hour to wait.

After hammering his numb legs, Wang Long sent out the servant who was waiting by his side, and sat down cross-legged to rest.

When the attendant came, what he saw was Wang Long's carefree look, without any intention of admitting his mistakes and introspecting.The attendant's impression of Wang Long was greatly reduced, and he thought: "No wonder the adults want to punish him more, this young master is just trying to save face, and he doesn't even have the least respect for the elders in his heart."

He intentionally coughed outside the window to startle Wang Long, watched him knelt down again in a hurry, and put on an attitude of humbly accepting the punishment, then the attendant went in and told Wang Yao's instructions again.

Unexpectedly, what awaited was a double punishment, and Wang Yao still said something so serious, Wang Long was surprised but dared not disobey.Deliberately wanting to ask about the situation, but looking at the attendant's cold face, Wang Long swallowed his words and carefully figured out what went wrong.

It stands to reason that if grandma pleads for mercy, it is impossible for the third uncle not to forgive, but why not only did his punishment not be spared, but it was even increased.Wang Long was puzzled, wondering whether he should continue to ask his grandma to intercede.

"Brother, didn't grandma go to look for third uncle?" Wang Long hesitated for a moment, but still mentioned Wang Li.

Seeing his little thoughtfulness, the attendant sneered and said, "Second young master, please forgive me for talking too much. My lord can sit in this position today, not because of the old lady, nor the little property of the Wang family. , not to mention the status of a merchant in the Wang family. He relies entirely on his own ability. Now, even the Prime Minister will listen to what our adults say. In the Prime Minister’s Mansion, everyone respects him and no one dares to disobey him. The Wang family, can't they still lose people?"

The attendant's words woke up the dreamer, and Wang Long realized that he had done something stupid and disobeyed the third uncle's rebellion, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

The third uncle is used to being high and powerful, and it's not a matter of saying a word to deal with a person.Now that the third uncle had just finished speaking, he hurriedly asked grandma to intercede, which was equivalent to singing against the third uncle, and it was certain that the third uncle was unhappy.Wang Longzhi regretted it in his heart, annoyed that he had made a wrong calculation.

"If our adults want to reward you, you have to keep it. If they want to punish you, you have to accept it. There is no second choice. I advise you not to play tricks. Going against our adults' wishes, yes What good do you have?" The attendant continued.

Wang Long quickly turned to the attendant in a kneeling position, and bowed deeply on the ground, "This elder brother misunderstood, how dare I go against the wishes of the third uncle. The third uncle gave rewards and no punishment. As a junior, I can only be grateful, so how dare I have other ideas. I know it is wrong to alarm grandma, but that is because the insiders are ignorant, and I really don’t know anything about it. I also ask this elder brother to tell the third uncle, and wait for Long I have knelt down for enough hours, I must personally apologize to Third Uncle and thank you."

Seeing that he was quite knowledgeable and interesting, the attendant left satisfied.

Wang Long knew that he had offended Wang Yao, so he knelt down obediently all night, and after kneeling for a long time, he limped to Wang Yao to plead guilty.
