"Rebellious child! You, you rebellious child!"
In the hall, Xue Dingyi knelt on the ground, head hanging low, not daring to make a sound.
The whole Xue residence was silent as the grave, save for the roaring of the old master Xue Chengquan.
"Had someone not told me, I wouldn't have known about the huge mess you've caused outside! In just four months, just for tuition fees you've spent a hundred taels of silver, and I've also provided you with an additional fifty taels for medicinal herbs expenses! What have you achieved with your practice? Eh?
You idle away your time outside, devoid of ambition, stirring up trouble, and at home you disgrace the maidservants, disrespectful and unfilial, indulgent in wine and women to no end—how did I father such a disobedient son!"
Xue Dingyi stiffened his neck: "How have I disgraced any maidservants? It was Qiuhua who seduced me first, and she even saucily asked me to drink brown sugar water."
"You... you!"
