Old Scholar Fang also intended to send Fang Liuyang to school, but he was still young, and didn't have the restraint of his older grandson. Letting him stay at school, with no self-control and lacking guidance, he feared that Liuyang would cause trouble and waste his time. After all, they couldn't keep someone around just to look after him.
Grandma Fang also said, "It definitely won't do for Er Lang to live in the town by himself. He won't even have anyone to take care of him, let alone someone who could wash his clothes or ensure he eats properly. He can't control himself; he always wants to play!"
