The incident of the uncle bringing the girl back from his study tour was resolved under the angry scolding of his grandfather with a stick. The girl was kicked out of the house, and the uncle would go to the county town early tomorrow morning to return her to her friends. When the uncle came back, he would first go to the ancestral hall to kneel for a day, and then
He was confined at home for half a year and studied hard. He was not allowed to leave the Zhu family compound without his grandfather's instructions.
In fact, if you think about it, your grandfather still favors your uncle, and his punishments are not painful. In fact, the problems have not been truly solved, such as the problem of two-way money, and the problem of the uncle's flirting with women outside. Treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
The matter has been suppressed like this, but the aftermath of the matter cannot be eliminated.
If nothing else, let’s just say that the relationship between the eldest aunt and the uncle is on the verge of a cold war. After returning to the room at night, I still heard the eldest aunt arguing with the uncle in the room. The eldest aunt loves the uncle very much and is always proud of him.
, but what happened to the uncle this time hurt the aunt. The aunt lowered her face and asked her mother-in-law for two pieces of money. The result was good. The uncle was eating, drinking and having fun and even took the girl home. The aunt was very hurt. No matter how the uncle explained, it would not work.
, just to make trouble.
But not long after everyone fell asleep, they heard Zhu Pingjun running into the yard whimpering and yelling, "Just beat me to death."
"Daddy, let's see what's going on. Jun'er came out crying." When her mother Chen heard Zhu Pingjun's cry in the yard, she couldn't help but push Zhu Shouyi beside her, and the two of them put on their clothes and came out.
Zhu Ping'an and his eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan also rubbed their eyes and came out to see what was going on. Why did the aunt and uncle fight and beat Zhu Pingjun?
The third uncle, the third aunt, the fourth uncle and his wife also came out, and everyone asked Zhu Pingjun what happened.
Then under Zhu Pingjun’s description, the incident was restored:
During the quarrel, the aunt and uncle began to win over Zhu Pingjun in order to better attack each other.
The eldest aunt asked: "Jun'er, is mother good to you?"
Zhu Pingjun nodded and said yes.
Not to be outdone, the uncle here also asked, "Jun'er, how good is my father to you?"
Zhu Pingjun also nodded and said yes.
The first round ended in a draw, which was naturally not the result that the aunt and uncle wanted, so they asked again, "Jun'er, mother or father, who treats you better."
Zhu Pingjun glanced at his parents and then replied, "You are both very good to me."
Very good. So far, Zhu Pingjun’s answers have been very good, and he has simply performed exceptionally well.
The eldest aunt and uncle then asked, "Now that father and mother are quarreling, whose side are you on?"
Zhu Pingjun looked up and replied without thinking, "I'm standing next to you..."
I stood next to...next to...so Zhu Pingjun was beaten by his aunt and uncle, asking you to stand next to him, and asking you to stand next to him...
Zhu Ping'an was also speechless. Just stand by and get beaten. IQ is a flaw. But in fact, thinking about it, Zhu Pingjun is indeed a victim. When adults quarrel, why should children be imprisoned? But adults are like this. Parents always quarrel.
I like to ask my children these questions, and I want to find a sense of presence from my children, but how do you ask your children to answer these two difficult questions. However, Brother Jun’s answer is indeed worth beating. Any answer is better than this one, even if you fall to one side.
It's better than hitting someone with two fists.
Everyone didn't know what to say, they just comforted Zhu Pingjun. Mother Chen asked Zhu Pingjun to keep Zhu Ping'an and his eldest brother company, and squeezed into a room to survive for one night, and then everyone dispersed.
As his mother's orders could not be violated, Zhu Ping'an and his eldest brother had no choice but to take Zhu Pingjun back to the room for a squeeze. It must be said that Zhu Pingjun was really a representative of the unintentional class. He was sobbing when he entered the door, and he started snoring within two minutes of lying on the bed.
He didn't take today's incident seriously at all. Perhaps in his eyes, it was fine as long as his parents were around, and he could just let him go if they quarreled. Gradually, Zhu Pingchuan also fell asleep, and only Zhu Ping'an continued to fight alone.
Zhu Ping'an sat at the table and continued to copy the textbook. This time he copied a thousand-character essay, which had a relatively large number of words. He had never thought of copying it in one night, so he planned to copy it in two parts. He would first copy a few hundred words tonight.
Copy, Zhu Ping'an feels that the connection between himself and the brush is getting higher and higher. The brush seems to become a part of his body in his hands. There is a feeling that the brush seems to be integrated into his hands, like fingering the arm. This kind of
It feels like you have accumulated enough experience points from killing monsters to level up. The calligraphy has also made a small progress at this moment. It seems to be a higher level than before. I was a beginner before, but now I have just glimpsed the ropes.
Early the next morning, before dawn, the uncle was sent out by his grandfather to return Mei Ji without even letting him eat. The uncle also wanted some travel expenses, but in exchange he was scolded by his grandfather and left in despair.
But grandma caught up and secretly stuffed some money into her, but she didn't know how much it was.
The eldest aunt seemed to have not slept all night, and she was very haggard. She only drank half a bowl of porridge for breakfast. Mrs. Chen and other sisters-in-law also put aside their conflicts and comforted her with good words. Zhu Pingjun seemed to be a little more sensible, and followed the eldest aunt.
Sitting there, there was no fuss at the dining table as before. Zhu Ping'an also sympathized with his aunt, and of course he didn't eat less. His grandfather kept asking him and Zhu Pingjun to eat more and eat more vegetables. Zhu Ping'an relied on his grandfather's persuasion and also
He turned on a small stove for Xiao Yu'er, put several pieces of scrambled eggs into Xiao Yu'er's bowl, and narrowed the little girl's eyes into crescent moons.
The uncle went to the county town to return Meiji in embarrassment, but when he came back he was in high spirits and his face was shiny. This made Zhu Pingan a little puzzled.
"Mom and Dad, I returned home. My colleague knew what happened to me and apologized to me repeatedly, saying that he had caused me harm, and gave his son half a pound of money for travel expenses. The son knew that he had sinned deeply, so he gave me the flowers he didn't give up.
You two elders have brought me back." The uncle spoke earnestly, as if he had acknowledged his mistakes and repented.
My grandmother was very happy and told my grandfather repeatedly that he could correct his mistakes and that he was still a good boy, but he had been deceived.
When the grandfather saw that his eldest son had returned from his lost way, his anger subsided a little, but there was still a lot of anger, and the punishment he meted out to his uncle was not reduced at all.
Regarding the punishment, the uncle happily accepted it, saying that he made a big mistake and should accept the punishment. In the future, he must change his mind and become a good person and learn knowledge. He must be selected as a scholar and be elected as the ancestor of the old Zhu family.
Before leaving, the uncle pulled the eldest aunt into the room and said he was apologizing. He quietly gave the eldest aunt half a thousand dollars in the room, saying that it was a gift from a friend.
My daughter-in-law apologizes. She is so beautiful and virtuous, so she should buy some rouge and gouache...
Under the attack of the uncle's sweet words and half the money, the uncle's anger also disappeared a lot.
When the uncle went to the ancestral hall to face the wall to repent, he had extinguished most of the anger in the family, and the rest was just a matter of time. Regarding this, Zhu Ping'an had to admire his uncle's skill. He did not make a fool of himself by reading the Four Books, Five Classics and Eight-legged Essays, but instead became better and better.
I'm being cunning. I don't know whether it's because the eight-part essay in the Ming Dynasty didn't restrict thoughts as much as in the Qing Dynasty, or because my uncle was a special case. There were too few scholars nearby, so I couldn't find a comparison. I had to wait until I left the village before I could draw a conclusion.
