She suddenly felt that Li Qinglang’s words made a lot of sense.
She had always been enmeshed in her family affairs. She could not bear to see her elder brother and sister-in-law work so hard, and she could not stand her parents’ laziness and how they spoiled her younger brother. She was even more intolerant of her younger brother’s selfishness and immaturity.
But she had always felt that her parents were the problem and wanted a way to change them.
She never thought of trying a different angle. If Younger Brother changed, that would reduce the damage that her parents had wrought.
When she heard Li Qinglang’s words, the more she thought about them, the more she felt that they made sense.
“Then… what should I do? Just… bribe him? Make him listen to him and then teach him to study hard?”
Li Qinglang looked at the girl. He suddenly burst out laughing.
“You usually seem pretty sharp. Why are you so befuddled over this?”
Han Jing flushed. “I… I’m too closely involved to have a proper perspective.”
Li Qinglang nodded. “Um! That’s possible.”
Han Jing said uneasily, “Stop teasing me. Tell me, quick! What should I do?”
This was just too important to Han Jing. She was really helpless when it came to her family. They gave her too much stress. She would be deeply grateful if this problem could be solved!
Li Qinglang said, “I’ve observed your younger brother, and I think he’s actually quite intelligent, just that your parents have spoiled him. In the future, minimize his interactions with your parents and let him see the world outside. Otherwise, he will become just like your parents.
“Make a trip back next week and find a way to persuade your younger brother to come out. I’ll educate him and show him how my family’s little nephews live. Especially that Mo Yang. He’s my brother-in-law’s cousin’s child. That child really was raised very successfully.”
“Mo Yang?” Han Jing’s eyes widened. “Yuan Yuan’s husband’s younger cousin?”
“Um!” Li Qinglang nodded.
“He is of high birth, but he does not a single bad habit common to rich children. He is extremely intelligent and also eager to learn. I can say that among all the children I have met, his upbringing was the most successful.
“Although I might be biased towards the children in my own family, I must admit that the Gu children are slightly inferior to Mo Yang and that they’re slightly less gifted.”
Han Jing: “…”
After a long time, she said rather incredulously, “You… you’re referring to the little crown prince of the Mo family? You… you can arrange a meeting between him and my younger brother?”
Heavens!
With her status, she would never have the opportunity to meet someone like that!
Mo Yang was a famous prince in the capital. Han Jing had often heard Zhong Bingyuan talk about him, about how clever and studious he was and what a sweet-talker he was. In short, he was good at everything.
How could someone like her, who was born into a farmer’s family, have the opportunity to meet a child who was so outstanding and of such high birth?
Li Qinglang laughed and said, “I just think that Mo Yang has been brought up very well and is a very good example. If your younger brother can meet him, it might change him.
“But I don’t interact much with the Mo family. My older sister is Madam Mo’s sister-in-law. It’s not hard to meet Mo Yang. If I have the opportunity, I can bring Chuanzong to meet him, but I won’t be able to especially bring Mo Yang out.”
Han Jing hurriedly said, “No need, no need. How can I ask you to especially bring Mo Yang out? This… meeting him will already be a rare opportunity. Besides, if Chuanzong can meet your nephews, that will already be very, very good.”
