The Grand Dowager got off the kang, holding one hand of each child, and said to the three of them, "I am very pleased that Sheng took the initiative to admit his mistake." She continued, "Let this be a lesson for you this time. In the future, when you are together, you should talk it out even if there are conflicts, and you must not resort to physical fighting. Remember that!"
The Grand Dowager took a handkerchief and wiped the tears from Xing and Sheng's faces, and said to Sheng, "Especially you, Sheng. As the elder brother, you should take care of your two younger brothers. How can you bully them?"
"We remember." The three children lowered their heads and responded to the Grand Dowager. Sheng, with reddened eyes, said, "Grandmother, I will never dare to do it again in the future."
The Grand Dowager nodded with relief and said, "That's good!"
Xing raised his tear-stained, flushed little face and timidly asked, "Grandmother, are we still getting a new teacher?"
