(047), kneeling
Lin Shan naturally noticed the angry look on the face of Xing Laohan, who was walking in front of Xing Feng, but he thought of something else.
If Xing Laohan found out that Xing Feng had gone to the Song Mansion, it would be normal for him to be angry with Xing Feng. But the most convenient way to get from the academy to the Song family did not need to pass through the green building, Lin Shan speculated that Xing Feng should have strayed into the fireworks alley after coming out of the Song family-at that time, he also saw the soul-like expression on Xing Feng's face a few glances through the window, and he was a little more certainโhowever, if this was the case, then what could be that made Xing Laohan so annoyed?
The information in his brain was exchanged quickly, and after only a few breaths, Lin Shan cleared his thoughts, the strange color on his face was long gone, and he was about to sit back at the table. It's very simple, although he has had a few teacher-student relationships with Xingfeng, but how can he take care of this kind of family affairs of other people's families?
It's just that when he was about to turn around and return to the table, downstairs, Xing Laohan's voice that had been reprimanding Xing Feng while walking suddenly froze. After a soft sound, Mo Ye, who was lying on the edge of the window, shouted in surprise.
On the crowded streets, the torture wind fell to his knees. He faced Xing Laohan, but he hung his head deeply and shouted in a deep voice: "Dad! โ
Xing Laohan turned around and saw Xing Feng kneeling down in front of him on the street. Although the son knelt down to his father's filial piety in Zhaoguo, he still felt a little unnatural in his heart, because he had never taught and required Xingfeng to abide by filial piety like this, and he was stunned for a while.
After Xing Feng finished shouting, he paused for a moment and then said: "The child is wrong, make amends to you, please don't be angry anymore." โ
"If you have anything to say, we will go home again." Xing Laohan came back to his senses, his heart softened, and he stepped forward to help the torture wind.
When Xing Laohan's hand was about to touch Xing Feng's shoulder, he saw Xing Feng suddenly raise his head. The resolute look in his eyes made Xing Laohan, who was already close to him, couldn't help but shrink his pupils and stagnate his hands.
Xing Feng's voice didn't raise a point, but his tone had obviously changed. From the beginning of the pleading, I have now made up my mind. He opened his mouth, and every word in his words seemed to be stone-thrown: "But the child has decided not to study anymore. โ
Xing Laohan was stunned again when he heard this, and he took two steps back imperceptibly in this daze.
Originally, he was going to help Xing Feng's hand, but his fingers slowly bent into a fist, and after stopping in the air for a moment, he opened it in reverse and pressed it on his waist, and then his fingers pulled unusually slowly to the buckle of the belt around his waist. Then I listened to Xing Laohan say word by word: "Don't read? What did I tell you in the first place? And how did you promise me?"
Xing Feng quickly glanced at Xing Laohan's hand pressed on the belt around his waist, as if he didn't realize what would happen next, there was no cowardice in his eyes, but a trace of struggle appeared in his eyes, and he instantly calmed down.
In fact, since he was three years old, Xing Feng has been familiar with the pain caused by the leather belt or the green rattan in his father's hands, because of the gradual superposition.
In Xingjia Village, it is very common for parents to beat disobedient children. Although Xing Laohan has been tortured more than once, he is actually very cautious in mastering the 'degree'. He never beat and scolded the child indiscriminately because he vented his anger, and if he did it, it must be Xing Feng who caused a big disaster.
Just like today, the result of Xing Laohan's hard work for more than ten years was given up by Xing Feng's words, how could he not be angry?
But Xing Feng was ready to be beaten at this time, so he hung his head slightly, and his face was calm. For the upcoming beating of his father, even if he did it on the street without scruples, he did not resent his father in his heart, but there would be a trace of guilt for disappointing his father.
At the same time, he was thinking with some frustration in his heart: If this beating can make Daddy angry, then let's fight! If this beating can make Dad agree to abandon literature and martial arts, then this beating is worth it.
He didn't know that on the second floor of the restaurant next to him, Lin Shan and Mo Ye, who had clearly seen this qiฤ in their eyes from beginning to end, were almost unbearable.
The hardest to accept this scene was Mo Ye.
First of all, she couldn't watch Xing Feng being beaten coldly like a bystander, and secondly, because she had never been beaten in the way she was cared for and educated by Lin Shan, who was at home. So she couldn't understand how wrong Xing Feng was? Why punish with such violence as whipping? And it's also a father who shot at his own son!
When Mo Ye looked at her master with some anxiety, she felt a little surprised, because the master seemed to be upset because of this incident, and wanted to go downstairs to stop it.
"You just stay here, I'll go and I'll be back soon." She listened to her master's instructions and turned to go downstairs. Seeing Master like this, Mo Ye finally felt at ease and felt a little grateful.
From childhood to adulthood, in Mo Ye's heart, the master may be a little indifferent to other things. There are many things that he will not take the initiative to take care of, and even if she makes a request, the master will most likely refuse. But as long as Master takes care of it, the result will definitely be what she hopes.
It's just that Mo Ye didn't know that the reason why Lin Shan couldn't stand it was not as direct and simple as she thought.
Although in Lin Shan's concept, it is indeed inappropriate for parents to beat their children on the street and openly act on the street for a little family matter, but this inappropriateness is not so strict that Cheng Dรน, who is ready to stop him.
The real reason why he went downstairs was Xing Feng. He saw the untapped potential in this child and hoped for it, so he would give him some help in a timely manner.
Downstairs, Xing Laohan had already untied the belt around his waist and held one end in his hand. His hand clenched tighter and tighter, but he didn't do it. After a long time, I heard him whisper as if muttering: "Why are you disobedient, why can't you let me worry about it, alas"
Xing Feng listened to these words, and the long deep sigh at the end of the words, and the expression of struggle that had been precipitated in his eyes became rich again.
Now he didn't have the courage to argue with his father about anything, because the decision to exit just now consumed all his mind. But as soon as this decision was made, he would never change his tune. Now he just couldn't bear to see his father like this, so he would look struggling, but in the end he could only hang his head and shout: "Dad, do it!" As long as you don't get angry, the child will never resent. โ
As soon as Xing Feng's words were finished, he heard a familiar voice call his name.
Subconsciously raised his head, and when he saw the tall young scribe in plain robes walking from behind his father, his eyes suddenly became awe-inspiring.
"Xing Feng!"
The familiar voice, with a hint of purity in his tone, only two words, but when Xing Feng knelt on the street after hearing these two words, the two palms that were originally lying flat on the ground, his fingers were already slightly curled, and his nails scraped on the stone slabs covered on the street with a sound that only he could hear, but he still didn't speak, let alone stand up.
Xing Laohan turned around when he heard the sound and saw the plain-shirted scribe walking towards him, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Of course, he also knew this gentleman of the college, and his neighbor who lived across the pond. But this understanding is only limited to facial impressions, and the actual situation is unknown except for the fact that he learned that this gentleman's surname is Mu Mingwen.
Lin Shan stopped when he was still two steps away from Xing Laohan. He waved at Xing Laohan with respect, Xing Laohan hurriedly hugged his fists stiffly and saluted, and then Lin Shan took the first step and said: "I am the teacher of Lizheng Academy, I originally made an appointment here with your child Xingfeng, but I didn't want to meet like this." โ
Xing Laohan didn't look back at his son, who was still kneeling on the ground. It seemed inappropriate to whip a child in front of his son's teacher, and the situation made his face look awkward. He could only squeeze out a little unnatural smile, and said to Lin Shan: "The dog is stubborn, and he has caused trouble to the academy, how can he still bother Mr. so much on his departure day." โ
Lin Shan smiled and said gently: "This kid and I are teachers and students, how can we break kindness lightly?" He left school today, and as a teacher, I also have a responsibility, so I asked him to come here today to talk about his future actions. โ
At this point, Lin Shan's tone was sluggish, and he lowered his voice before he said again: "When the child is older, he will have his own thoughts, which is not a bad thing. In fact, the dean gave him a letter of recommendation for the 'Shanshui Academy' when he left, but he didn't seem to want to go much, and we met here today to talk about it. โ
When Xing Laohan heard him explain, a look of surprise slowly appeared in his eyes: "I thought he was so stubborn that he left the academy early without permission, but it turned out that this was the case, I blamed him wrongly, but my kid didn't tell me at all." โ
Lin Shan Wen said: "Xing Feng studied very seriously in Lizheng Academy, and now that he has just left the academy, his mood will inevitably be restless and impetuous, and his expression will be slightly trance, but this is also a matter of common sense. โ
Xing Laohan understood, turned his head and glared at Xing Feng, and dropped a sentence: "Don't hurry up yet." โ
Then he looked at Lin Shan again and said sincerely: "Sir, as soon as the child Xingfeng was born, his mother went, because of this, I have always been worried that he will be lacking in character. But I'm a rough man, and I can't teach some places, and I have beaten children when I was anxious. I know that this is not good for the child after all, today the old man took the liberty to beg you once, just today, teach this child well, okay? โ
Lin Shan smiled slightly and said, "Our two families have lived next to each other for several years, don't see each other like this, let's go upstairs first and talk slowly." โ
Xing Laohan showed a look of gratitude on his face, and dragged Xing Feng, who had just gotten up from the ground and walked behind him, to his side, and then said to him in a deep voice: "Don't kowtow to your teacher soon." โ
Xing Feng was stunned and was about to bend his knees, but saw Lin Shan's hand gently resting on his shoulder, and at the same time, a force came down from his shoulder, making it difficult for him to move. Then he listened to Lin Shan's solemn words: "Remember, bearded men, kneel on both knees, kneel on both knees, and kneel on one knee to the monarch." โ
Xing Feng was shocked when he heard this.
He looked at the look in Lin Shan's eyes, remembering the shooting of pythons in the outing meeting at the beginning of the year, and the words of the gentleman in front of him that day. He didn't choose to avoid his eyes this time, but firmly met Lin Shan? p>
