Chapter 149: Chapter 148: The Family Discipline Rod in the Warehouse

Elder Su had not intended to enforce family discipline.

After all, Little Auntie had been gone for so long, it surely meant his son and two grandsons had been through some unpleasant experience. But now, hearing the two little grandsons say, say that the talk of a ghost in the house was a lie concocted to justify moving out, anger suddenly flared within him.

"So that’s how it is, you say there’s a ghost in the house just to deceive me and your grandma? We old folks have always been wishing for a granddaughter, but we adore you two as well. You, you’ve got plenty of cunning, lying just to move out?"

Elder Su was so angry that his voice trembled, and his breathing grew much heavier.

The second son had been divorced for two years already, fearing the two little grandsons would be saddened by the lack of a mother, he and his wife thought themselves not the clueless type of grandparents, always discussing how to spoil the two little grandsons a bit more without overindulging them.

Usually, as long as the grandsons received praise at kindergarten or did something right at home, they could have whatever reward they asked for.

To be able to speak with the two little grandsons, the elderly couple even learned to watch popular animated movies together and play small computer games with them.

There were seven sons in the family, each with their own careers, leaving them little time for the children. At their advanced age, they read many parenting books, fearing their teaching methods would be out of step with modern society.

Despite all that, the two little grandsons still wanted to leave the Su Family?

"What exactly is out there?" Elder Su grew angrier as he thought about it, "You really have to move out? Come on, explain it to your grandpa. Your grandpa and grandma are not that closed-minded. All your uncles have bought houses outside, saying they’re too busy with work to come home, and we’ve agreed to that!"

The words of Elder Su immediately embarrassed Su Chenjin, Su Chenzhou, Su Chenyan, and Su Chenfei.

They were the ones who had moved out due to their busy work life, and if it weren’t for the cute and seemingly capable Little Auntie who had joined the family, they would probably be outside in their own houses now.

The elder was venting his anger, pure and simple!

At this moment, the brothers all tacitly lowered their presence, trying to avoid drawing the elder’s ire upon themselves.

And Su Chenyi, who was at the center of the incoming fire, knelt decisively in front of Elder Su, head bowed, admitting fault: "Dad, mom, it’s my fault as a father for not fulfilling my duty. You two have done too much for me and them, and now we’re talking about moving out, it’s our fault. Please punish us."

At this moment, Mianmian was being held by Old Lady Su. She sat on Old Lady Su’s lap, her dark eyes shifting between Su Chenyi and the two great nephews, with her little ears twitching nervously.

Here it comes, the part about asking for a spanking according to family discipline!

Su Mianmian, the head of the Su Family and the eldest of all the elders, was about to work as the protector of little butts!

The anxious expression on Little Bun made Old Lady Su misunderstand, thinking she was scared. She frowned and stared at the kneeling father-son trio for a long while, then nudged Elder Su with her elbow.

As an old married couple, they were in perfect sync.

When reprimanding, a small movement like this from Old Lady Su meant she felt Elder Su was overdoing it, signaling him to tone it down and cool off a bit.

But Elder Su didn’t want to cool off today.

He wore a grim expression, deciding to say everything he had in mind: "The children have grown up and want their privacy, their personal life, which is normal, very normal. As their father and their grandfather, I was also young once, and thought about moving out when the business started to pick up, to start my own family. It was only after your grandma talked to me that I didn’t leave."

"Actually, wanting to live outside isn’t wrong, it’s human nature. If you have the ability and manage well outside, I’m happy for you."

"But once you leave, it’s like you’ve forgotten you have two old folks at home, not even thinking of showing your face."

"Last year, for the entire year, Chaoyu and Chaoyang were at kindergarten, and it was just me and your grandma in the manor. It’s true we have many servants, but they’re not our own flesh and blood after all, leaving us feeling like forsaken elders."

"The ones outside, work demands, can’t come back, we can understand that. But the fifth and sixth sons, especially the sixth, I’ve checked online. Making computer games, that work can be done at home, so why are you reluctant to come back?"

With the fire suddenly spreading to himself, Su Chenzhou didn’t say a word and just knelt down. The rules of the Su Family were such; there was no hesitation, and he seriously reflected on himself: "Dad, I was wrong. I’ll live at home from now on."

The others saw this, figured kneeling for one was the same as kneeling for two, and just knelt down altogether to admit their faults.

Frankly speaking, they were indeed at fault.

Being busy was just an excuse; not wanting to live at home was the reality. Otherwise, why would they crowd into the house and stay when a cute Little Auntie appeared, finding her adorable and fun?

Just thinking about this made the brothers feel even guiltier towards Elder Su and Old Lady Su, to the point where they even wanted to slap themselves.

Ah, what unfilial descendants they were!

Seeing the nieces, nephews, and grand-nephews kneeling all around, Mianmian opened her little mouth and let out a soft "Ah".

She had thought she would only need to protect two little butts today, never expecting she would have to shield so many grown ones too. With so many younger members erring, if each one was to be spanked, could she handle it all?

Even if she could handle it, with only a pair of hands, she wasn’t sure if she could stop them.

Old Lady Su was saddened by what Elder Su said.

Wasn’t it so? If it weren’t for a birthday celebration, these children would only show their faces on some significant holidays at best, stay for one night, and certainly wouldn’t think of returning home.

But hearing the mild cry of "Ah" from Little Auntie in her arms, she could no longer dwell on her sadness and wondered if she should take Little Auntie somewhere else to play.

Presumably, the elder didn’t want Little Auntie to witness his fit of anger. Otherwise, if she remembered the image of him wielding a stick to hit someone, she might become afraid to get close to the elder.

Thus, Old Lady Su stood up with Mianmian in her arms, thinking of slipping away quietly.

Mianmian, who had been intently watching Elder Su, completely focused on what she would have to do later, suddenly noticed her view was changing.

She was unexpectedly being lifted by Old Lady Su.

What was happening?

Mianmian glanced at Old Lady Su and whispered into her ear, "Auntie-in-law, you’re going to get a stick, aren’t you? There’s no need for that; Mianmian’s warehouse has a family discipline stick too."

With the house empty of anyone but family, the servants gone, and sure no one else was around, Mianmian didn’t hold back. She took out a small brocade pouch from her little bag and flicked it.

A thick family discipline stick that required two hands to grasp appeared in the Su Family meeting room.

"How about this one?" Mianmian asked, seeing Old Lady Su frozen for a long while, then shook out a smaller one, "Or this? This is the one mom chases Mianmian with when she’s angrier."
