Butler Miles nodded and respectfully said, "Yes."
"That's easy to say. Gem has served in the military for two years and earned our Sinclair Tribe three national first-class honors; it is the greatest glory for our family. To our country, it is loyalty. Today, as he takes the whip for his mother, it is filial piety. And for his wife, it is righteousness. Can a family head who has loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness in one be exempted from punishment according to family rules?"
The butler nodded and said, "What Mr. Len said is true."
"Alright, let's exempt him then."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Atkinson naturally dared not speak up in contradiction. Moreover, he couldn't bring himself to do it anyway, so he conceded and said, "Yes."
"Thank you, Uncle Len."
"Thank you, Grandpa Ken."
As Eleanor Spencer Atkinson and Forsythia Brown spoke, they both rushed to Gem Atkinson, and he bowed his head, "Thanks, Grandpa Ken."
