"Brother-in-law, please save me. My father wants to beat me. If you hadn't come, he would have continued to beat me. Woo, wow, it hurts so much. Look at my hands. They have been beaten into pieces by my father. I can't even hold my favorite chicken drumstick... Woo, wow..."
When the naughty kid Rui Ge'er saw Zhu Ping'an, his chubby face suddenly looked like he had found a savior. He excitedly asked Zhu Ping'an for help, and while asking for help, he showed Zhu Ping'an his chubby little hands that were red from being beaten with a cane.
Well, it’s true, the naughty kid’s chubby hand was hit pretty hard, there were even some bloodstains on it.
Next to the naughty child was a school desk, on which were placed a set of pens, inkstones, a piece of rice paper with dried ink, three volumes of books, and... ... a plate, with a braised chicken leg rolling out of the plate. The naughty child just said that he couldn't even hold his favorite chicken leg. It was probably the chicken leg that he reached out to grab just now, but because his palm was bruised and red, he couldn't hold it and it fell on the table... ...
This naughty kid is really careless, and his focus is really weird. At this time, he is thinking about the chicken leg... ...Aren't you asking for trouble? ! Zhu Pingan couldn't help but pull the corner of his mouth when he heard it.
As expected, as soon as the naughty kid finished speaking, before Zhu Ping'an had the chance to plead for him, he heard the roar of Linhuai Hou.
"Chicken legs, chicken legs, you are so ignorant and just eat all day long. Look how fat you have become!!"
Although Zhu Ping'an was present, Linhuai Hou was still out of control of his emotions after being provoked by the naughty kid's words about the chicken leg. He could not help but roar and sharpen his knife, no, he raised the cane and went towards the naughty kid.
"Fifth brother-in-law, help me..." The naughty kid had a strong desire to survive. He hid behind Zhu Ping'an while shouting for help.
Although sometimes Rui Ge'er, the naughty kid, really makes people want to rub him with their hands, feet, rulers, canes, etc., but this time Linhuai Hou Li Tingzhu rubbed him a little too hard.
Therefore, Zhu Ping'an stretched out his arms to protect the naughty child, and pleaded with Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu for the naughty child, "Uncle, please show mercy. Rui Ge'er is still young and sometimes does not understand things, so a small punishment will do. I think he knows he is wrong, so uncle, please let Rui Ge'er go this time."
It was estimated that the naughty kid had made a big mistake. Although Zhu Ping'an pleaded for mercy, Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu had no intention of putting down the cane. He stood in front of Zhu Ping'an, wrapped the cane around his palm with one hand, and said breathlessly, "Zihou, don't you know that this kid is ignorant and incompetent? All he does all day is eat, sleep, and play. Three of the teachers we hired with a lot of money have been driven away... Look at him, his knowledge has not improved at all, and his weight is increasing..."
"Ahem, uncle..." Zhu Ping'an was about to persuade Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu again when he heard the naughty child mumbling behind him, "Dad, I'm not that fat now, I'm far behind you..."
The naughty kid's words once again succeeded in making Linhuai Hou Li Tingzhu so angry that he lost control and went berserk. If Zhu Ping'an hadn't protected him, Linhuai Hou would have hung the naughty kid up and beaten him... ...
"Ahem, uncle, Rui is still young, and although he likes to play a little, he is smart. With careful education, he will still be a pillar of society..." Zhu Ping'an changed his perspective and tried to comfort Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu.
"Smart?! My dear nephew..."
After hearing what Zhu Ping'an said, Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu's face suddenly became constipated, as if there was something hidden.
Zhu Pingan was stunned when he saw this. Although it was a bit against his will to say that the naughty kid was smart, it shouldn't be that serious, right? !
"Smart?! Alas, my dear nephew, you don't know that the reason why I taught this wicked boy a lesson today..."
Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu became emotional as he spoke, and pointed at the naughty kid Ruiger with trembling fingers.
Ahaha, now we get to the point. Zhu Ping'an is all ears.
At this moment, the naughty kid raised his fat face with an innocent look, which made Linhuai Hou angry again.
"It is precisely because of this evil son that he is a rotten wood that cannot be carved." Linhuai Hou said angrily.
"Uncle, it's not that bad, is it?! I have taught Rui Ge'er, and he is not as bad as you say."
Zhu Pingan said softly.
"That's right, fifth brother-in-law is right, I'm not a useless person." The naughty kid Rui Ge'er said with his neck stiff.
"Shut up! You get out of breath when I say you're fat!" Linhuai Hou said angrily.
Although the naughty kid shut up obediently, his little fat face was tilted up at a 45-degree angle...
"My dear nephew, you still think he is smart?! The teacher has already started explaining the "Petition to the Emperor" to him ten days ago. Today, I tested his homework, and the first few sentences made me so angry that I almost vomited blood..."
When Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu mentioned the test on the naughty children's homework, he couldn't help but complain to Zhu Ping'an.
As a graduate student of ancient Chinese literature, Zhu Ping'an is very familiar with "Chen Qing Biao". This is a memorial written by Li Mi, a writer during the Three Kingdoms and Jin Dynasty, to Emperor Wu of Jin. The words are sincere and full of true feelings. Every word shows filial piety. This article is recognized as one of the representative works of lyric literature in the history of Chinese literature. Just as "The Deer and the Cauldron" has such praises as "If you have never met Chen Jinnan in your life, it is in vain to call yourself a hero", "Chen Qing Biao" also has such praises as "If you don't shed tears when reading Zhuge Liang's "Chu Shi Biao", you are not loyal, and if you don't shed tears when reading Li Mi's "Chen Qing Biao", you are not filial." Teaching "Chen Qing Biao" to cultivate children's filial piety is indeed the best choice.
It is estimated that the Marquis of Linhuai tested the boy's academic performance, on the one hand to see how well he had mastered the lessons, and on the other hand to see whether the boy had made any progress in filial piety after learning "Chen Qing Biao".
It seems that Marquis Linhuai is not just disappointed. Zhu Ping'an understands something when he sees this.
"I asked him to reconcile with 'a child born six months ago, a loving father passed away'? Nephew, do you know what he said?!"
Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu said to Zhu Pingan with some excitement, he guessed that the naughty kid's explanation at that time was really too outrageous, so that when he mentioned this sentence now, his emotions were still difficult to control.
Zhu Ping'an looked up at the naughty kid.
"This sentence means 'My kind father died when I was six months old'. I even wrote it down."
The naughty kid raised his fat face and replied, his confidence evident on his face.
This sentence is not difficult, and the naughty kid translated it perfectly, it's quite accurate.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ping'an looked at Linhuai Hou in confusion.
"You still have the nerve to say that! Zihou, look at what he wrote..."
Linhuai Marquis Li Tingzhu excitedly picked up the rice paper on the table, pointed at the words on it and said to Zhu Pingan.
So angry, what did the naughty kid write? !
Zhu Ping'an looked at the rice paper curiously, but after just one glance, he was almost choked to death by his saliva.
Written in black and white on the rice paper was: "When I was six months old, my kind father castrated me..."
Get rid of the “momentum”? !
You are such a talented person, you arranged for your father to be a eunuch in the palace...
Zhu Ping'an finally understood why Linhuai Hou was so excited, so angry, and so out of control.
Originally, I wanted to see how you did in your studies and how filial you were, but you not only made a mistake, but also told your own father what your father had arranged - to be castrated and enter the palace. How could the Marquis of Linhuai not be angry!
