At this time, Zhang Xun also walked home.

Shanglin Village has three surnames, Zhang Family, Lin Family and Luo Family.Now Zhang Shu, the village head of Shanglin Village, is the old man of the Zhang family.At this time Zhang Xun was standing in front of Zhang Shu, Zhang Shu looked at Zhang Xun kindly and said:
"Xun'er, did Brother Xin recite hundreds of surnames today?"

"Well, father!" Zhang Xun said excitedly: "Brother Xin is amazing, he even recited all the surnames of a hundred families."

Zhang Shu smiled kindly and waved his hand to let his son go out.Narrowing his eyes slightly, he muttered to himself in a low voice:
"Brother Xin, are you a child prodigy, or a person with bad morals?"

Luo Xin was walking on the road, thinking about Lin Chang's attitude towards him, and politely greeted the people in the village when he saw him, but he found that the attitude of the people in the village towards him was different today.Even before he was studying, these people would make fun of him when they saw him.Not to mention yesterday's enthusiasm.

but……

Today he greeted the people in the village, but found that everyone ignored him, and everyone looked at him with contempt.

Walking into the house, I immediately felt that the atmosphere was different from usual. The elder brother did not practice martial arts in the yard, but sat on the stool in the room with a gloomy face, and the mother sat on the kang with red eyes.

"Mother, what happened?" Luo Xin's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that something happened to his father?
Luo Shi stared at Luo Xin with red eyes, which made Luo Xin feel a little terrified.He had never seen his mother look like this before.

"Xin'er, mother has something to ask you, you have to tell the truth."

"Yes, mother!" Luo Xin was a little nervous, but also a little relaxed.Listening to the meaning in what my mother said seems to have nothing to do with my father, but with myself.

"Have you ever eavesdropped on uncle reading?"

Before Luo Xin could answer, he heard Luo Sheng's voice from outside the courtyard: "Second Aunt, Grandpa asked you to take Brother Xin home."

Luo Shi's hand just trembled, and hurried down to the ground, went outside and pushed open the courtyard door, and saw Luo Sheng standing outside, and asked weakly:

"Sheng'er, why did your grandfather call Xin'er?"

Luo Sheng first glanced at Luo Qing and Luo Xin quickly, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, he thought that these two brothers are like thieves, one steals weapons and the other steals documents.Then he saluted Luo Shi and said:

"Second Aunt, Grandpa heard some rumors in the village and asked Xindi to go back and be punished."

"Why am I being punished?" A wave of anger rose in Luo Xin's heart.

Luo Sheng curled his lips and said with obvious disdain: "Don't you know?"

"Xin'er, you..." Luo Shi grabbed Luo Xin's sleeve.

"I'm going to see grandpa!"

An angry look appeared on Luo Xin's face. He had never seen such a grandfather before. At this moment, he understood that someone must think that he could not be a child prodigy. This is a matter of morality. Luo Xin deeply understands the importance of morality in this era. If he is recognized as a person with corrupt morals, no matter how good his knowledge is in the future, he will not be able to wash away this stain. It was completely ruined.Although he didn't know who was jealous of him at this time and spread rumors about him, but as a grandfather and the head of the family, he didn't ask anything and let him go back to be punished. Isn't this helping others to convict him?

So Luo Xin couldn't stay still, and strode towards his grandfather's house.Luo Shi followed worriedly, while Luo Qing followed with a gloomy face.

The two families were not far away from each other, so they soon came to grandpa's house, entered the main room, and saw that the room was full of people, grandpa, grandma, uncle's family, and uncle's family.Seeing Luo Xin walking in, Luo Heng slapped the table and shouted:
"Nie Yi, kneel down!"

Luo Xin gritted his teeth. It is impossible not to kneel. It is Grandpa who spoke. Not kneeling is unfilial. This is the reputation of being unfilial in this era, which is even more terrifying.Taking a deep breath, Luo Xin knelt down slowly, Luo Shi and Luo Qing also knelt down hastily.Luo Heng glanced at Luo Shi, snorted coldly and said:

"Xiang Ling, you teach so badly."

"Grandpa!" Luo Xin raised his head, and said before his parents said, "I don't know what crime Xin'er committed, and let Grandpa punish Xin'er?"

"You still dare to ask?" Luo Heng raised his eyebrows: "Do you know that our Luo family has been humiliated today because of you alone, and it will be difficult to raise our heads in Shanglin Village in the future?"

"Xin'er doesn't know!" Luo Xin said lightly.

"Good! Good! Good!" Luo Heng was so angry that he said good three times: "You can learn hundreds of surnames in one day?"

"Yes!"

"Can you recite it in two days?"

"Yes!"

"You bastard, you still don't admit your fault?"

"Xin'er doesn't know what's wrong?"

"Good! Good! Good!" Luo Heng's eyes showed a trace of sarcasm: "So you are a child prodigy?"

"I don't dare!"

"Don't you dare? Is there anything else you dare not do? Originally, when your uncle gave Wen'er the enlightenment, it was fine if you eavesdropped. As long as you admit it to your husband in the school, nothing will happen." , but you are out of vanity, and you refuse to admit it for the sake of showing off. Do you think everyone else is a fool? Do you think Lin Xiu is a fool? Will you not see your tricks? You are corrupt, and you will go to Lin Village in the future There is no longer a place for you to stand, and you are still not guilty?"

Luo Xin suppressed the anger in his heart, looked extremely calm, looked up at his grandfather and said lightly:
"Grandpa, Xin'er would like to ask, how did you know about this?"

"Everyone in the village knows it, but you still ask me how I know it? You're an idiot, I'm so mad. If you kill you, you won't embarrass the Luo family."

"Snapped!"

Luo Heng picked up his cane and slapped Luo Xin's shoulder fiercely. Luo Xin's body shook, and the severe pain came from his shoulder. Even if he practiced martial arts since childhood, he couldn't handle Luo Heng's battle.

"Daddy!" Luo Shi took two steps on his knees and stopped in front of Luo Xin: "I also ask Daddy to forgive Xin'er..."

"Grandpa! Please also tell Xin'er where he learned about this matter. Since Grandpa wants to punish Xin'er, he must make Xin'er understand what's wrong? You can't just convict Xin'er based on hearsay."

Luo Heng was so angry that he pointed at Luo Dao with his cane: "Okay! After going to school for two days, I know how to reason with my grandfather. Today I will let you know what is wrong, and then I will kill you, a wicked person. You are yours in this matter." What my aunt said, could it be that your aunt will help outsiders to bully your own family?"

Luo Xin turned his face to his aunt and uncle. The uncle's expression was calm and breezy, as if he was not sitting at home at this time, but sitting in a bamboo forest with a beautiful scenery, and his mind was wandering.The little aunt said with obvious disdain on her face:
"Isn't this true? If you didn't eavesdrop when your uncle was teaching my family texts, you can learn a hundred surnames in one day and recite a hundred surnames in two days?"

Luo Xin took a deep breath and said, "So, the rumors were spread by you, auntie?"
