Chapter 53: Admonitions to a Junior (Part 2)

  "Disrespecting elders, causing trouble, deserves punishment." Fang Zixuan walked up to him and lifted him off the chair, easily pinning his arms behind his back.

  "What are you doing?" Fang Zipeng struggled violently, but unfortunately he was a twelve-year-old kid who spent all day cooped up at home playing games and had grown a layer of fat, extremely chubby. Fang Zixuan was older than him and had already developed physically, being much taller than him. She also paid attention to exercise every day, although she wasn't considered strong, but it was still easy for her to pin him down.

  "Fang Zi Xuan, let me go!" Fang Zi Peng, this unreasonable little tyrant, was always quick to flare up at the slightest provocation, and now he couldn't believe she dared to use force on him, so he opened his mouth and bellowed loudly.

  Unfortunately, she was completely used to his bewitching voice and didn't even frown.

  "Fang Zi Xuan, I f**k your mom!......"

  Zhang Yun's heart ached for her son and she had intended to go up and advise him, but as soon as she heard his words, she was so angry that her face turned green. This bear child is really hopeless if he doesn't listen to advice.

  Fang Jianlin had just been scolded by his son, and was still suppressing the anger in his heart. Seeing someone teaching Fang Zipeng a lesson, he naturally wouldn't intervene to stop it.

  So he was always pushed to the second floor by Fang Zixuan, and Fang Zipeng's wailing did not call for anyone's support. It wasn't until then that his heart became a little panicked. Compared to Fang Jianlin and Zhang Yun, he was more afraid of this gloomy and unpredictable sister.

  At the age of twelve, he already knew how to observe people's words and expressions. Fang Jianlin and Zhang Yun, although they were older, would occasionally scold him a few times, but they were most afraid of his crying and making a scene. As long as he threw a tantrum, they would immediately surrender and compromise, never laying a hand on him. But Fang Zixuan was completely different. Over the past few years, the two had been together day and night, and his understanding of Fang Zixuan was probably more than that of his parents.

  This sister is simply a cold-blooded animal, at the age of 14, she dared to kill a snake with an unchanged face, facing his crying and fussing. Even if he fainted from crying, she would probably still splash him awake with a basin of cold water.

  As soon as she saw her push him into the room, turn around and close the door, Fang Zipeng's fear was magnified to the extreme, he really didn't know what she would do next.

  "It's none of my business what you do, it's all up to you," Fang Zixuan looked at him calmly. "But since Mom and Dad have entrusted me with the responsibility of taking care of you, I must fulfill my duty."

  "You're still loyal to your duties, why don't you go and dedicate yourself to the country?" He stiffened his neck, trying to overpower her with his presence.

  It turns out that aura is not about who has the loudest voice. Fang Zixuan didn't say anything, she just narrowed her eyes and stared at him silently, making Fang Zipeng like a deflated balloon, without even the strength to put on a show.

  "Disrespect to elders, punishable; unreasonable noise-making, punishable; speaking ill words, punishable. Copy the 'Three Character Classic' ten times." She had a stern face that inspired fear, and didn't look like a sixteen-year-old girl at all.

  "You're crazy! Copy it yourself!" From young to old, no one had ever punished Fang Zikai before. It would be strange if he listened obediently, especially since it was such a boring punishment like copying books. Only old fogies like his grandfather and great-uncle would come up with something like that.

  "If you don't want to copy the book, then get a slap on the palm." She picked up the ruler from the table with ease.

  "What are you doing? Do you dare to hit me? Don't you want to live?" Fang Zikai hid his hand behind his back, refusing to take it out, but he was no match for Fang Zixian, who pinned him down. The ruler slapped against his palm with a loud "crack".

  "You should have been beaten from the start, there's no dare or not dare about it. Besides, I want to live too, but that doesn't conflict with beating you." She said slowly and rhythmically while pressing down on him and hitting him in a rhythmic manner.

  "Ah! Murderer!" Fang Zikeng shouted miserably, struggling violently. The ruler slapping his palm didn't actually hurt that much, but the tension and humiliation of being punished made him, who was normally full of pride, almost collapse.

  She remained unmoved, pinning him down firmly, her hands falling onto his palm one by one, while she continued to enumerate his misdeeds.

  "Zi Xuan is a good kid, with her taking care of the younger siblings I can rest assured." Fang Jianlin said to Zhang Yun, ignoring the miserable cries coming from upstairs.

  "Zi Xuan only has a younger brother, where did the sister come from?" Zhang Yun's face turned serious, and her bad premonition grew stronger. She tried to control her anger, almost biting her silver teeth to pieces. Fang Jianlin had always been secretly eating without wiping his mouth, and there were five or six illegitimate children outside that only she knew about. Hearing him talk like this, it seemed he was preparing to bring those children back home. It was unbearable, and even if she had to risk her life, she would not let him succeed.

  Fang Jianlin's face flashed a hint of embarrassment, but quickly calmed down, "Xinlan is about to take the middle school entrance exam soon, I thought of letting her come back and stay for a while, also let Zixuan tutor her sister."

  "Sister? How dare you say that!" Zhang Yun burst into anger, "Zixuan only has one younger brother, no sister! Don't bring those worthless women from outside back home!"

  "Zhang Yun, how can you be so unreasonable!" Fang Jianlin had been holding back the whole night, but seeing that he couldn't move Zhang Yun, he suddenly got angry too. He slammed his hand on the table and pointed at her, scolding loudly, "You're a vicious shrew! My children are siblings with Zi Xuan and Zi Peng. Which family doesn't want more children for good fortune? Only you, this heartless woman, can't tolerate others. The education in your Zhang family is really no better than this!"

  "What's with your family's discipline? Your mom is still bedridden from being angry at your second brother," Zhang Yun's face was almost ferocious, "If you dare to bring that wild child into our home, I'll dare to make a scene in front of your mom's sickbed, and then don't regret it!"

  Fang Jianlin sneered, "You go ahead, in any case, Xinlan will definitely come back to live here."

  Zhang Yun's heart skipped a beat. Fang Jianlin dared to bring his illegitimate daughter home so openly, he must have been fearless. He and Mrs. Fang had the closest relationship, it was impossible for him to ignore her health. So the only plausible explanation was that this matter was actually instructed by Mrs. Fang herself.

  Mrs. Fang disliked Feng Yannan, and she didn't like Zhang Yun either. They were both the culprits who made her have a minor stroke, although there were no major sequelae left behind, but her tongue became somewhat stiff, and when speaking, it was vague and unclear, and if you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear what she was saying.

  Perhaps for ordinary people, such a problem is not worth mentioning, and being able to save one's life is already good enough. Moreover, the doctor said that after a period of careful nursing, she can recover. However, for the other party's elderly lady who loves beauty and is proud, it is like a thunderstorm on a sunny day. The elegant her has become a big tongue, who knows how those noblewomen will mock her behind her back.

  So she can be said to have hated the two daughters-in-law in her heart, Feng Yannan is far away abroad, and for a while, there is no good opportunity to find him. Now that he can give Zhang Yun trouble without any loss to himself, why not?

  "Can't your mom be less childish?" Having figured out the underlying connections, Zhang Yun gritted his teeth in anger, "Do you think the old man would agree to that?"

  "The old man isn't as stubborn as you think." Fang Jianlin looked at Zhang Yun with a confident expression, his eyes filled with sarcastic amusement, as if watching her struggle was a delightful thing. "Besides, getting the old lady so angry that she fell ill also has your 'contribution', do you think you're doing an okay job as a daughter-in-law?"

  Zhang Yun felt a chill rising from the bottom of her heart. Old Master Fang had always stood on her side and had repeatedly made it clear that he absolutely did not allow Fang Jianlin to bring his illegitimate daughter into the house. However, if he allowed the illegitimate daughter from outside to enter the house, it would undoubtedly be a slap in her face, and even meant that he was no longer satisfied with her as his daughter-in-law. The biggest reason was that she had not recognized the importance of the occasion and had made a big fuss at her mother-in-law's birthday banquet, causing the old man to become so angry that he fell ill, and Fang's family and the second son's family cut off their relationship. This debt would have to be blamed on her, and perhaps even Zhang Lao Yezi would not have the courage to speak up for her at that time.

  Although Fang Xinlan is an illegitimate daughter, she is the most favored daughter of Fang Jianlin, surpassing his legitimate son and daughter, because her mother Shen Qin is his favorite concubine and also the woman who has been with him for the longest time.

  Shen Qin's family background was not bad, her father had been under Fang Lao Ye Zi, but unfortunately he died very early. Fang Lao Fu Ren has always taken care of this orphan girl. She and Fang Jian Lin grew up together since childhood and was also the ideal candidate for Fang Lao Fu Ren's third daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, Fang Lao Ye Zi insisted on forcing Fang Jian Lin to pursue Zhang Yun in order to form an alliance with the Zhang family. From this perspective, Zhang Yun could be considered as the "third person" between Fang Jian Lin and Shen Qin.

  Fang Jianlin and Shen Qin's feelings are not only romantic, but also familial and friendly. Although he often indulges in romantic affairs, his true love is undoubtedly Shen Qin. The most profitable private club in the Fang family is also managed by Shen Qin. As the only daughter of the two, Fang Xinlan enjoys everything that is no less than what Fang Zixuan and Fang Zipeng have, and she is even more favored by the elders of the Fang family. What she lacks is just the title of a legitimate miss.

  Zhang Yun and Fang Jianlin, a couple for many years, gradually learned about this matter. At first, they still went to Shen Qins' place to show their might, but found that Shen Qin was not a simple-minded person. Every time the two confronted each other, even if she was very aggressive, she always managed to get the upper hand. So they had no choice but to defend their bottom line and occupy their position, refusing to let Shen Qin and her daughter enter the house.

  Now Fang Xinlan is about to enter the door, so next it's probably Shen Qin. Zhang Yun's alarm sounded loudly in his heart, and his face turned pale. "It seems that your Fang family has made up their mind to turn against our Zhang family."

  "No matter what you say, marriage is between the two of us, there's no need to drag our families into this." Fang Jianlin continued eating with an air of composure, completely ignoring Zhang Yun's expression. His words couldn't conceal his smugness, as if the humiliation he had endured all night was finally worth it. "Some things, you can't just pretend not to see and then get punished for it later, that would make a bad scene."

  "Good! Fang Jianlin, you have guts! I hope the Fang family won't regret this!" Zhang Yun suddenly stood up, she couldn't eat another bite of this meal no matter what. Her priority now was to return to her own home and seek support. With a strong maternal family backing her, she didn't believe the Fang family would dare force her into divorce.
