Chapter 915: Punishment Chapter 915: Punishment Editor: Atlas Studios Although the items were quoted at a high price, at least they were sold.
The four children were delighted.
Only Tao Sheng hung his head low.
Since they were sold at such an expensive price, it would almost certainly be a one-time deal.
In the future, no one would come to them to ask for the price easily.
The six of them split the money equally and returned to their respective homes.
Mu Yangling carried Little An, who had the weakest physique, onto the horse and sat him down in front of her.
She asked in a low voice, âWere you scared when you killed the pirates today?â âNo!â Little An shook his head and said happily, âTheyâre all very weak.
They canât even compare to one finger of Brother Little Bear.â Mu Yangling stroked his head and sighed.
âBut your parents will be worried if youâre in danger.
After all, youâre still too young now.
You have to grow up before the adults can be at ease and let you do such a thing.
So if you encounter such a thing in the future, try your best to avoid it, okay?â âBut we wonât be in danger.
We have the protection of the bodyguards.â âThere will always be times when they canât take care of you.
For example, during that swim in the summer, werenât the guards by your side as well?
Moreover, the guards canât always be by your side.
What if the guards arenât around?â âIf we canât win, weâll flee.â Mu Yangling nodded with a smile.
âYou have to escape as soon as possible.
Donât take risks easily the next time you encounter such a dangerous situation.â Seeing Little An nod obediently, Mu Yangling stroked his head and smiled.
âSince Little Lion and Tiger Head listen to you, help me convince them later.â âWhat about Brother Little Bear?â âIâll get your Fourth Uncle to talk to him,â Mu Yangling said.
Little An stuck out his tongue and asked, âWill Brother Little Bear be beaten up?â Mu Yangling nodded affirmatively and said, âItâll do him good to get a beating.
Otherwise, heâll become more and more daring and become lawless in the future.â Qi Haoran had the same thoughts as Mu Yangling.
He felt that these three brats were getting bolder and bolder, to be rushing up to the pirates so fearlessly.
Although he was very proud and didnât think that they had done anything wrong, at their age, if he didnât give them a warning, they would probably be even more lawless in the future.
Therefore, when he returned home after work in the afternoon, the first thing he did was to bring the three brats who were practicing in the martial arts hall to the âlecture hall.â This was where the children studied.
If Qi Haoran wanted to teach them a lesson, he would bring them here.
Little An ran behind them excitedly.
When he arrived at the lecture hall, he stood obediently at the side and watched.
When he saw Fourth Uncle looking over, he even smiled at him fawningly.
Qi Haoran, who had planned to let Little An off, was furious.
Pointing at Little An, he said, âLittle An, stand over here too.â Little Anâs mouth fell open.
Little Lion and Tiger Head quickly went forward and pulled him to the middle to stand.
Little An said with a long face, âFourth Uncle, Iâm innocent.
I suggested going home.â Qi Haoran snorted and placed his hands on his hips.
âDo you think I donât know that youâre the one directing them to fight behind their backs?
Otherwise, these two silly boys would definitely be running all over the beach.
How would they know to follow behind their big brother and beat the pirates up?â Little An lowered his head.
Qi Haoran glared at them angrily and said, âYour bodiesââŹâfrom a single hair to a bit of skinââŹâare derived from your parents.
You should take care not to get injured.
Yet, you guys fearlessly went after the pirates at such a young age.â Little Bear shouted indignantly, âThen when soldiers get injured on the battlefield, theyâre considered unfilial?â Qi Haoran glared at them.
âHow old are they and how old are you?
If youâre at least 12, I wonât say this.
Listen, I wonât stop you if you want to fight and kill pirates.
Thereâs only one thing.
No one is allowed to go to the battlefield before the age of 12!â Little Bear wailed, âFive years is such a long time away!â Tiger Head and Little Lion were even more teary-eyed.
They counted with their fingers for a long time but still couldnât figure out how many more years they had to wait.
Little An leaned close to their ears and said, âYou still have to wait for nine yearsââŹÂŚâ Qi Haoran looked at the three children with joy and worry.
While he was happy that he finally had a successor seeing as his three sons were all talented generals, he was worried that his sons would become war maniacs in the future.
Qi Haoran punished the four children to reflect on their mistakes in the lecture hall.
Because Little Bear was the eldest brother and had taken the lead in committing the crime, he was punished to write 200 words.
Also, he was not allowed to ride a horse for five days.
The latter was a huge blow to him.
He closed his eyes and howled for a long time, but Qi Haoranâs heart did not soften and he did not retract his order.
He could only watch with teary eyes as his father turned around and left resolutely.
Over at the Fan Residence, Little Madam Xia wanted to send someone to fetch Little An back seeing as he hadnât returned after dinner.
Fan Zijin waved his hand and said, âThereâs no need for that.
Heâs still facing the wall to reflect.
Let him eat there before coming back.â Startled, Little Madam Xia asked, âWhat did Little An do?â Otherwise, Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling wouldnât have punished him.
The two of them doted on their children and most of the time, they reasoned with the kids when they made mistakes.
Fan Zijin said indifferently, âThat kid doesnât know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Instead of running away when encountering pirates, he went straight up and captured them.â Little Madam Xiaâs chopsticks fell to the ground with a clatter.
Fan Zijin said, âAlright, Iâll deal with him when he comes back.
Hurry up and eat.â âIs the child injured?â Little Madam Xia asked anxiously.
Fan Zijin pursed his lips.
âWhat kind of injury could he possibly suffer?
All he did was hide behind Little Lion and Tiger Head and scatter sand at the pirates.
Little Bear even beat the pirates down before letting Little An knock them out.
When he hit them with the stick eight times, the pirate still had his eyes widened.
On the other hand, Little Lion easily knocked them out with one blow.
They eat the same foods, learn from the same martial arts masters, and heâs even almost eight months older than Tiger Head and the others.
Why is there such a huge difference between them?â Little Madam Xia quickly defended her son.
âOur sonâs talent lies in studying.
Heâs smartââŹâlook, he knew to sprinkle sand in the eyes of the pirates, didnât he?
Heâs bold enough, too.
If it were other peopleâs children, they would have been scared to death.â âAfter fighting with Tiger Head and the others and causing so much trouble, whatâs the use of having him if heâs still timid?â Little Madam Xia shrunk her neck and did not dare to speak anymore.
She secretly instructed Nanny Xia, âQuickly get someone to secretly bring the young Prince back and see if heâs injured or frightened.
Tell him to speak nicely to his father when he sees him and donât anger him.â Nanny Xia agreed and personally brought someone to fetch Little An back from next door.
The children had just been released from their punishment of facing the wall and reflecting on their mistakes.
Before they could eat, he was carried back as soon as he came out rubbing his legs.
Nanny Xia originally wanted to carry him directly to Madam, but with Madam persuading the Duke from the side, his anger could be appeased a little.
However, they had just passed through the corner door when they bumped into Yanmo, who was waiting at the side.
Yanmo smiled at Nanny Xia and said, âNanny Xia, the Duke wants to see the Prince.
Give him to me.â Nanny Xiaâs face stiffened and she comforted Little An.
âYour Highness, you have to speak nicely to the DukeââŹÂŚâ âNanny Xia.â Yanmo shot her a disapproving look and said, âThe Duke is waiting.â Nanny Xia could only give Little An to him.
Sensing Nanny Xiaâs uneasiness, Little An looked at her strangely.
In his opinion, wasnât it perfectly normal for him to see his father?
Before Little An could figure it out, Yanmo smiled at him and said, âPrince, Iâll bring you to see the Duke.â Fan Zijin was in the study.
When Little An pushed the door open and entered, he was sitting at a round table filled with delicacies.
When Fan Zijin saw his son, he waved at him and said, âYouâre back?
Come to Father.â
