Gu Qinlan gently lifted their heads, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes, and asked gently:

"Do you know you are wrong?"

"We understand. We shouldn't not do our homework." Dou Qianqian said softly.

"Well, we will definitely finish it on time next time!" Zheng Huiyi immediately patted her chest and assured confidently.

"If we move faster next time, we will definitely find time to do our homework." Zheng Fengyun thought for a moment and said seriously.

Zheng Fenghui listened helplessly to the naive remarks of his brothers and sisters, his brows slightly furrowed, feeling a headache in his heart and he turned his head away with some contempt, sighing secretly.

I really can’t bear it. I can’t bear it at all!

As expected, Gu Qinlan was also amused by the words of these children. She raised her jade hand and tapped the four little heads lightly before she spoke slowly:

"Who told you that this is the key?"

Zheng Fengyun stroked the top of his head and didn't feel any pain. After all, his mother was so gentle and considerate that she would never make him feel uncomfortable even if she punished him. But...

"So mother, what is the key...?" Zheng Fengyun asked cautiously.

Zheng Huiyi and Dou Qianqian also held their little heads and stared at Gu Qinlan with pitiful eyes.

Gu Qinlan sighed softly, turned to look at Zheng Fenghui, and gave a direct order:

"Feng Hui, you answer."

When Zheng Fenghui heard this, he immediately gave Zheng Fengyun a look that said "study hard and observe carefully", then took a step forward, faced Gu Qinlan, and said solemnly:

"Mother... We shouldn't fight with others without permission. In the future, we will try our best to learn to be patient and not get angry easily even if we see our mother being wronged and bullied."

After hearing this, Gu Qinlan was amused by Zheng Fenghui again and burst into laughter.

This little guy... is really scheming.

These words not only admitted the mistake, but also cleverly expressed the original intention of their behavior - just to prevent Gu Qinlan from being hurt and making it difficult for her to punish them again.

Gu Qinlan did not respond immediately, but just looked at Zheng Fenghui with a smile.

Zheng Fenghui seemed to realize that his little trick had been discovered, and he coughed lightly in embarrassment and said:

"Mother... Feng Hui knows he was wrong. As the eldest son, I should have advised my younger brothers and sisters and not acted recklessly with them. This is my fault. Please punish me, mother."

When Zheng Fengyun heard this, he immediately raised his hand and said hurriedly, "Mother, this matter has nothing to do with my elder brother. It was Fengyun who proposed it. Mother, please punish me."

"Mother, Huiyi came up with the idea of ​​putting the sack on the body, and I was also wrong." Seeing this, Zheng Huiyi hurriedly followed up and admitted it.

"Aunt Lan, I...I was wrong too. I shouldn't have helped explore the way." Dou Qianqian also spoke resolutely at this time.

Gu Qinlan looked at the scene of these little guys rushing to confess their guilt, and her heart was filled with relief.

The fact that they value brotherhood and friendship so much proves that they are kind-hearted.

If they blamed each other at this moment, Gu Qinlan would be angry.

So, Gu Qinlan gently rubbed the tops of the little guys' heads and said softly:

"In addition to the mistakes you mentioned, your greatest mistake is to put yourself in danger!"

"Why do I ask you to read more? It's to make you understand that when you can use wisdom, you should never do it yourself!"

"Go ask your father, what is the most important thing for a general? It's not relying on muscles, but planning strategies, dispatching troops, and controlling the overall situation!"

"So, if you rush out rashly like this, what if Ji Yinli has bodyguards around him? What if they are careless and take your lives instead?"

Gu Qinlan's expression turned solemn.

She was delighted that she occupied such an important place in the hearts of these four children.

But because of that, she couldn't put them in danger.

Now their target is only Ji Yinli, but what if it is someone else?

For example, the third prince?

Considering the narrow-minded, vengeful, and scheming character of the Third Prince, do these little guys still have a chance to survive?

The four children blinked their confused eyes and listened to Gu Qinlan's words. They seemed to understand something, but still seemed confused.

Zheng Fenghui, however, kept Gu Qinlan's advice in mind, and then respectfully bowed to Gu Qinlan, saying sincerely:

"We will keep our mother's teachings in mind. We will be cautious in the future, and will not take any more rash risks or worry her. We will think carefully before taking any action."

Zheng Fengyun and others looked at Zheng Fenghui with clear eyes revealing a hint of honesty. They all responded to Gu Qinlan's teachings and expressed the same determination.

Who cares if they really understand it? It's never wrong to follow the big brother's footsteps!

Gu Qinlan looked at the children admitting their mistakes, smiled slightly, and said in a gentle tone:

"That's good to know..."

The four children heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this, but just when they thought they could catch their breath, Gu Qinlan continued:

"However, the mistake has been made and punishment is still inevitable."

"what?"

"Go make up for the missed lessons and copy Sun Tzu's Art of War ten times."

"what?"

"Also, since you guys were so powerful when you hit people last night, now you should all squat in horse stance for three hours."

"what?"

Every time Gu Qinlan announced a punishment, the four children would scream in unison. Finally, they seemed to have all their spirits drained away and stared at Gu Qinlan pitifully.

Gu Qinlan did not say anything, but Zheng Dinglian shouted coldly:

"What are you still standing there for? Didn't you hear what your mother said?"

In an instant, the four children no longer dared to complain, and turned around and fled the scene.

snort!

They acted coquettishly towards Gu Qinlan, which was a way of enhancing the mother-son relationship!

But to act like a spoiled child in front of Zheng Dinglian, the cold-blooded "God of Killing"? That would be like hitting an egg with a rock, asking for trouble! Why would that be necessary?

Seeing the children leaving without looking back, Gu Qinlan couldn't help but smile knowingly.

At this time, Jiang Boyi, who was standing by, said sarcastically:

"I was worried that you would be wronged! But now it seems that you two are working together to fool me."

After hearing this, Gu Qinlan immediately realized Jiang Boyi's anger. How could Jiang Boyi not be angry?

He just thought that Zheng Dinglian wanted to kill those children!

He even cursed Zheng Dinglian in his heart, thinking that he was a rude warrior!

But the result?

It turns out that Zheng Dinglian had been in the plan from the beginning and was just putting on a show for himself!

Gu Qinlan clearly saw through it all, but failed to remind herself in time, causing her to jump around anxiously like a clown!

It's really! It's a disservice to his brilliant and wise image!

Of course, the reason why Jiang Boyi didn't notice it was just because he was confused and concerned about his relatives.

Seeing this, Gu Qinlan hurriedly smiled and explained:

"Cousin, I have no intention of fooling you. But if I had explained it in detail at the time, the children would have noticed, and then the plan would have failed."
