Dad, How Can You Sleep at a Time Like This?

In the first year after Jiang Xiaobai transmigrated to ancient times, his family was well-off and he had no worries.

In the second year after Jiang Xiaobai transmigrated to ancient times, his grandfather lost his official post, and the family fell into decline...

The Jiang family had produced two generations of layabouts in a row.

Grandpa got a position as a county clerk thanks to Great-Grandpa.

Dad got a student post in the province thanks to Grandpa.

But by Jiang Xiaobai's generation, there was no one left to rely on. Grandpa lost his job after getting into trouble, and Dad failed the provincial examinations.

But all three generations wanted to be layabouts...

So this was what their daily life looked like:

Jiang Xiaobai: Dad, how can you sleep at a time like this?

Jiang Chengzhou: Dad, how can you sleep at a time like this?

Jiang Zhitang: Dad, how can you... Go ahead and keep sleeping.

(He gently puts the ancestral tablet back.)

Jiang Zhitang: Good son, our family is counting on you!

Jiang Chengzhou: Good son, our family is counting on you!

Jiang Xiaobai nods solemnly and picks up The Three Character Classic:

Human's knife, birth wood sheep, birth eye axe, knife eye origin...

Grandpa and Dad sigh again and again. Fine, let's try putting in some effort.
