“Do you want me to persuade Fang Zhihan into letting Jiang Baian go?” Yu Gangan immediately understood what the old man wanted.
In an unenthusiastic voice, she added, “Your grandchildren have their own lives. Don’t think too much about it.”
“You will understand when you get to my age someday.”
Which family didn’t have at least one bad child? Were they supposed to abandon the child because he didn’t meet expectations?
Yu Gangan thought for a moment and said, “I have a story to tell you.”
She stood up, walked over to the bookshelf, and pulled out a history book.
“During the early Chunqiu era, Zheng Zhuanggong, the third monarch of Zheng Guo, was not favored by his mother. His mother favored her younger son, Shu Duan, and was exceptionally forgiving towards him. Even when he made mistakes, she never punished him. In the end, he acted out of line and tried to rule half the country. That was how Shu Duan’s famous revolt came about. This story teaches us not to spoil our children excessively and allow their unscrupulous behavior. If we do that, they will continue down the wrong path and never turn back.”
The old man rubbed his eyebrows tiredly and leaned back against his bed.
Yu Gangan looked at him with seriousness, “No matter who it is, everyone needs to take responsibility for their actions. Jiang Baian has done so many wrong things and hurt so many people. You can’t pretend that nothing happened. He can’t blame anyone for his current situation, he is the one that caused it. If he wants to die, no one can stop him, not even God.”
The old man sneered.
“That’s enough, you can go out. I need to get some rest.”
Who didn’t understand this reasoning? But, when it happened to them, who could actually accept it?
Yu Gangan did not leave. She rested her head on her hands and looked at the old man quietly and gently.
Elder Jiang narrowed his eyes. When this brat didn’t have a bad temper, it made people nervous.
