Siheyuan: Returning from studying abroad, with extraordinary understanding

"You saw Lin Changqing's expression just now, as if he was about to eat someone. If I had stayed, not only would I not get any candy, but he would also humiliate me."

"In this case, will our Yan family still have face? I am a teacher and a role model. If this gets to the school, will I still have the face to be a teacher?"

"Maybe the principal will expel me directly. Do you want us to starve to death? Or go back to the countryside and live a life of digging in the dirt?"

Yan Bugui was also angry. As a teacher, he still had to maintain his reputation.

I wanted to eat roast duck before, but now when I think about it, I feel a little scared.

Fortunately, he did not stay rashly and leave a bad impression on Lin Changqing. If he was really humiliated by Lin Changqing, a foreign student, how could his image as a teacher be good?

She is an international student with a higher degree than him, so what she says is more trustworthy.

"This... Boss, have we offended Lin Changqing? What should I do now?"

Liu Xiaofang was panicked. She didn't want to go back to the countryside. She had finally married and moved to the city to live a city life.

This kind of life is so much better than farming!

"Don't panic. We didn't offend the Lin family. The ones who offended the Lin family were the old lady and Yi Zhonghai. I just said a few words to Lin Changqing and didn't speak up for him when I came back. This is not too much of an offense. I guess he won't bother to bother with us about this little thing."

"Let's just live a peaceful life. I'll find a chance to ease the relationship."

While comforting his wife, Yan Bugui recalled what he had said to Lin Changqing today and found that he had not said anything serious. He had only said nice things and had not offended Lin Changqing.

In this way, he relaxed. It was relatively easy to ease the relationship between his family and the Lin family.

"That's good!" Liu Xiaofang was completely relieved that she could still live a good life. "Then let's eat. We were so busy watching the fun that we didn't have time to eat."

As he spoke, he took out the prepared steamed buns, pickles and radishes.

After setting the table, Liu Xiaofang saw that the child had not returned, and could not help but ask, "Should we call the child back?"

"What are you asking them to do? They've already been given candies, and they're taking them back to honor their parents. It's really a waste of time to teach them!"

Speaking of his three sons, Yan Bugui got angry. He and his wife had been back for so long, but his three sons had not returned yet.

It's obvious that he wants to finish eating the candy before coming back.

"If the children are not filial, we won't give them any food today! The head of the family is right. We can't spoil the children like this. It's not easy for us to raise them, and yet they are not filial to us!"

Liu Xiaofang doesn't feel sorry for her children. None of her three children gives her peace of mind.

Life at home was so difficult, and the child was still disobedient, which made her a little disappointed.

Since her family became financially troubled, she was influenced by Yan Bugui and learned to be calculating. Whether it was cooking or other things, she would plan everything out.

For example, for this dinner, each person had a steamed bun, and a few slices of pickles and radishes, and she distributed them clearly.

Just then, the three sons came back.

"Mom and Dad, we are back."

Seeing their three sons’ happy expressions, Yan Bugui and Liu Xiaofang suddenly became angry.

He hasn't even gotten the meat yet, but he's still so happy. He's really not sensible at all.

"What did I teach you before? You have no ambition at all. People bought more than two kilograms of meat, but you kids didn't even get a piece. I'm so pissed!"

"Where's the candy Lin Changqing got? Give it to me immediately. If you don't, you won't be allowed to eat for three days!"

Yan Bugui's stern tone made the three of them tremble all over. They lowered their heads and dared not say a word.

The reason why they didn't dare to come back so soon was that they were discussing how to keep the candies and not let their parents know.

Lin Changqing gave two candies to each child. They ate one of the candies they got and planned to take the remaining one to school to show off tomorrow. However, when they came back, their father asked them to hand it in.

Now, Yan Bugui is forcing them to hand over the candy, which is undoubtedly cutting their flesh.

Even if they didn't want to, they couldn't fight their parents, but they were reluctant to let them take out the candy so easily.

The eldest son, Yan Jiecheng, didn't want to hand over the candy. He looked up at Yan Bugui and said with a stiff upper lip:

"Dad, I've finished my candy and can't give it to you."

Hearing their elder brother say this, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang's eyes lit up and they said in unison:

"Dad, I've finished my candy too!"

Yan Bugui became even angrier when he saw the evasive looks from his three sons.

"Okay! You three are really my good sons of Yan Bugui! How dare you lie! What did I teach you? Tell me the truth, how much candy did Lin Changqing give you? How much did you eat? How much is left?"

"If you don't tell the truth, you won't have any food today or tomorrow, and you'll have to beg on the street!"

When Liu Xiaofang heard what Yan Bugui said, she also became angry. Her heart sank that her three sons dared to lie.

She immediately turned around, went to the kitchen, and came back with a rolling pin.

"I have raised you three in vain. For more than ten years, you have turned out to be three ungrateful wolves! Head of the family, teach them a lesson and make them realize their mistakes. Otherwise, when they grow up, will they still recognize us?"

Yan Bugui subconsciously took the rolling pin and said, "Wife, you are right. If I don't teach you a lesson, you will rebel!"

When the three saw their parents’ behavior, they were very scared and immediately begged for mercy.

"Dad, don't hit me. I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied. I'll hand over the candy right away. Lin Changqing gave us two candies each. We each ate one, and now we have one left."

Yan Jiecheng immediately knelt down, held the candy in his palm and presented it to Yan Bugui.

He was very afraid that Yan Bugui would hit him with a stick. If that happened, he would probably lose his life!

He has seen many scenes of Liu Haizhong beating children every day.

If my own father beat him like this, he would be skinned alive if not killed.

He didn't want to be beaten. He was already thirteen years old. If he was beaten, he wouldn't be able to hold his head up at school.

Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang followed suit and knelt on the ground like Yan Jiecheng, presenting the candy to Yan Bugui.

Normally, when they made mistakes, their father never beat them with a rolling pin, but the punishments were quite severe. Now that even the rolling pin has been taken out, you can imagine how serious the mistakes they made were.

They couldn't imagine how painful it would be to be hit by a stick.

Seeing the three people handing out the candies obediently, Liu Xiaofang immediately took away all the candies.

She was very satisfied with the attitude of admitting her mistake, but when she saw that the candy in her hand turned out to be milk candy, Liu Xiaofang became angry again.

"You three losers! You ate three candies at once! As the boss, we have to teach them a lesson!"

"One candy can be made into a cup of milk. You know how precious milk is now! You have no conscience. Don't you know to bring the candy back to your parents?"
