Xi Mao, who was ten years old, brought his manservant to the Fighting Cricket Market. This was a place where the cardinals of the capital preyed on crickets. During this period of time, First Lady had taken the opportunity to slip away to the crickets gambling den. In just half a month, he had lost fifty to sixty thousand.

The servant continued to persuade him, but Xi Mao did not pay any attention to him, and said without a care: "Isn't it just fifty or sixty thousand, mother has plenty of silver, so he doesn't care about that. "If you let this information leak out and your father finds out, I will definitely skin you alive."

He finally told his master everything that he was going to tell First Lady. First Lady then stood up and scolded: "You actually brought Young Master to that kind of place, and you even owe me seventy or eighty thousand. You bastard actually didn't stop Master, see if I'll beat you to death today or not."

De Quan slapped First Lady hard a few times, but he did not dare to make a sound. Only after First Lady finished did he heave a sigh of relief. He didn't believe that the First Lady didn't understand what kind of son he had.

"You have to keep this matter a secret from the Master, okay?" First Lady asked De Quan to bring Xi Mao over for her. When he sat down on the chair, he gasped for breath, and his face had already distorted.

Wang Ma scolded Xi Mao on the inside. She said that Xi Mao was even more of a money loser, seventy to eighty thousand, that was all silver. Spending so much money just fighting crickets would make him lose a lot of his family property. Wang Ma was also angered, and he said to First Lady: "Madame, don't be angry, your body is better off so you should be more careful. "Little Young Master is still young and insensible. As long as we properly educate her, such things would naturally not happen, and she would definitely be led astray by those little Young Master from other families."

"This brat, look at him. I'll teach him a lesson today." First Lady gnashed his teeth. Wang Ma knew that she was just saying that was all. This Xi Mao was her greatest reliance, if anything were to happen to her, who would she be able to rely on in the future?

After a while, Xi Mao arrived. He had probably guessed something, and said with an embarrassed face: "mother … Hehe, who told you to get angry … "Ahhh!"

"Madame!" Wang Ma was also shocked, she looked at the First Lady fiercely slapping Xi Mao for a long time, and she didn't react for a long time.

"You really have big balls, fighting crickets and fighting crickets can earn seventy to eighty thousand yuan, do you think that the mother is a bank? No matter how much money you have, it won't be enough for you to spend … mother will not help you hide this matter. I will definitely tell your father and let him punish you. " First Lady was so angry that she was trembling. Eighty thousand, not seventy to eighty thousand, this was something that she had dug out bit by bit.

The moment he heard that he was going to tell Xi Hong Sheng, Xi Mao's expression immediately changed. He immediately pulled at First Lady's hand and cried, "mother, mother, I won't dare to do it again, I won't do it recklessly, please forgive me this time, I was wrong …" Woo woo … * If I tell father and son, they'll be beaten to death. "

How could the First Lady tell Xi Hong Sheng the truth? It was just to scare Xi Mao a little, so he said with a fierce face: "It's normal to beat you to death, look what you have become now …"

"mother, your son knows his wrongs. Your son will never dare to do it again, never again …" Xi Mao cried her nose and tears. First Lady also felt her heart ache seeing him like this, but she could not hug him in her arms. He could only harden his heart and shout, "I don't dare to do that again. I think you're quite bold."

"mother, your son really does not dare to …" Xi Mao cried.

First Lady has finally come to a compromise: "Alright, alright, your mother won't tell your father, but this kind of thing is not allowed to happen again. When this happens, mother won't be able to protect you! You're all right, you know? "

"Yes, I understand. Thank you, mother, thank you …" Xi Mao was overjoyed! First Lady waved for him to leave. During this period of time, he had to return to the school on time and not be late or early.

Although Xi Mao was unwilling, he still reluctantly agreed and went back dejectedly.

The First Lady said helplessly: "I really don't know what to do about this child."

"This old servant does think that little Young Master is a smart and sensible child. "He must have been bewitched by someone." Wang Ma immediately calmed down, hoping that she would be happy. This Xi Wan Rong, Xi Wan Feng and the others all needed First Lady's help.

Who knew that this matter would happen so quickly? Xi Hong Sheng found out the next day! Xi Hong Sheng did not know who said it, but he immediately went to interrogate Xi Mao. Xi Mao was after all, only ten years old. When Xi Hong Sheng heard that it was true, he immediately trapped Xi Mao.

First Lady was the first to know about this and immediately sent someone to report to the old Madame. Although the old Madame did not really love Xi Wan Rong much anymore, Xi Mao was still very much in love with her.

"Hurry, go report to the old Madame, say... They say that Master wants to beat Xi Mao to death … " The First Lady ordered as she rushed to Xi Mao's courtyard.

From far away, he could hear Xi Mao's hysterical crying. First Lady's heart was about to break … Xi Wan Feng and Xi Wan Rong also rushed over. Xi Wan Feng held her hands and asked: "mother, didn't father come quickly to love little brother? "Why is this today?" The sound sent chills down one's spine.

Xi Wan Rong also shook his body and asked softly: "mother, what happened?"

"Your little brother went to fight crickets and lost seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver …." After all, she was his daughter, so there was no need for him to hide it. Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng took in a deep breath at the same time. What? He needed to hit, he needed to hit properly in order to have a good memory.

After a woman marries, she still had to rely on her parents, who could flourish in her parents' home, so it was natural for them to hope for Xi Mao's growth. This would be of great help to them.

Xi Wan Rong's face darkened, Xi Wan Feng's expression did not look good, and First Lady said: "Your brother was tricked by someone, someone wanted to harm her." Upon saying that, the two of them looked at each other, and simultaneously thought of the same person — — Xi Jiu Er!

Could she have done it? Perhaps …

When First Lady entered the courtyard, he saw Xi Mao tied up on a tree and crying loudly. The surrounding servants were all kneeling in silence, they were so frightened that they didn't even dare to breathe loudly. De Quan was lying on the ground, and his body was covered in wounds.

"mother, save me …" When Xi Mao saw First Lady and the others coming over, he immediately shouted for help, "Big sister, second sister, quickly save me … …"

First Lady's heart was about to break. Xi Wan Rong and Xi Wan Feng also felt their hearts ache! First Lady bit her lips and could not beg, she was afraid that when the time came, her begging would become more and more serious, she could only wait anxiously for the old Madame to come and see if he had arrived. As long as Old Madame protected Xi Mao, nothing would happen.

smiled indifferently at their resentful gazes. So what if this was her doing, so what if they did not have any evidence, what could they do to her? Could it be that she was forcing Xi Mao to play with the crickets? What a joke!

Third Wife's eyes were filled with schadenfreude. He placed his hand on top of Mother Fang's hand and asked: "What happened, why did something like this happen?"

Yan Er said indifferently: "I'm afraid that it was a great disaster that led to such a ruthless attack. Xi Hong Sheng was only worth two taels of silver. For Xi Mao and Xi Rui to be able to be viciously beaten by him, it was definitely not an ordinary small matter.

At this time, the old Madame came over with the mother of joy. The old Madame shouted, "If you dare to hit me again, I'll immediately die for you to see." The old Madame was blushing, he did not know if she was angry.

Xi Hong Sheng raised his hand and stopped moving. If the old Madame really died, wouldn't he be blamed for being unfilial? He helplessly said: "mother, it's not that your son wants to hit him, it's just that this stinking brat is too … If I don't teach him a lesson today to let him remember, I'm afraid he might end up with some trouble in the future. "

"Is it going to work just like that? Wouldn't they beat him to death every day? When you were young, didn't you do a lot of things wrong? In the end, wasn't mother still the one whispering to you, lecturing you! "Where's the child that you're teaching?" The old Madame saw that Xi Mao was tied to the tree and his heart started to hurt.

"mother... "You, you can't say that either. You, you don't know what this bastard did …" Xi Hong Sheng said somewhat helplessly.

"He's only a ten-year old child. What can she do? Isn't that a capital offense? " The old Madame shouted. Previously, when the First Lady had people invite the Old Madame, they said that Xi Mao had fought crickets with the other students and lost some silver. He didn't say how much.

"Do you think I don't know? It's just that we lost some silver from fighting crickets with the students of the academy. Don't you think our Xi Family doesn't even have this little silver? "If you don't have any silver, this old woman will pay it back." The old Madame started to criticize his son, "Hmph, for such a small amount of money, look at how badly you beat Mao'er up. If others were to find out, what would they say about our Xi Family? You don't even have this much money, and you've almost beat your child to death. God knows how many people will laugh at our Xi Family. "

"mother …" Xi Hong Sheng shouted helplessly.

"If you dare hit Mao again, see how I'll deal with you." Old Madame sneered and ordered the mother of joy to untie Xi Mao. Then she took a glance at Third Wife and frowned: "You're about to give birth, why are you still joining in on the fun? "Go back quickly!"
