Chapter 232 The Wise County Magistrate

232

"Sun Shouzheng, as a father who has failed to teach, I sentence you to twenty spankings. Are you convinced?" Xu Shaoming asked with a stern face.

Xiao Ruo's eyes brightened. Lord Xu was truly wise!

But Sun Shouzheng's face turned pale. "My lord, my son spoke without thinking, I beg you to spare me this once."

In his life, he had never experienced the punishment of spanking. Even his own father had never hit him with a stick. To endure these twenty spankings would cost him half his life.

"If you are unwilling to take these twenty spankings for your son, then let him endure them himself," Xu Shaoming said, unmoved and impartial.

"I don't want it!" Upon hearing this, Sun Zhe was terrified and yelled out, "Spank my father! My lord, you said it yourself, the fault lies with the father who failed to educate, spank my father!"

Pfft~~

Xiao Ruo felt a surge of satisfaction.

One must bear the consequences of one's own actions, this saying is a painful lesson indeed.
