Chapter 1586 The Li Family's Yin Prevails Over Yang

When Li Ye returned home for dinner, Wen Leyu asked him about his trip to school. Li Ye gave a detailed account and then told her what Xiao Dou'er had said.

"Xiao Dou'er says she likes her current school and class and doesn't want to transfer. So, do you think she's acting recklessly because she's young and doesn't understand the complexities of human nature, or because she's taking advantage of her mother?"

Wen Leyu looked up, puzzled, and asked, "Transfer schools? Why do you want to transfer schools?"

Li Ye explained, "At the time, I was thinking that if there was a rift between the teacher and the children, it would be bad for the children's mental health, so I asked the two children if they wanted to transfer schools, but the children didn't want to, so I just pretended I didn't say anything!"

Wen Leyu raised her eyebrows, a half-smile on her face, and said, "The child's mental health? Li Ye, you want to settle this peacefully, right? This is the first time in all these years that I've seen you back down!"

Li Ye immediately protested to his wife, "What do you mean by admitting defeat? I was just worried about the child! Sometimes a child can get led astray by challenging an adult without even realizing it."

Wen Leyu stared at Li Ye for several seconds, then said softly, "I know you're worried about the children, worried that they'll suffer in silence if they're bullied."

But Xiao Bao'er and Xiao Dou'er are in a different environment than you were when you were little. There's no need to feel wronged because of someone else's domineering attitude.

Li Ye was taken aback, realizing that Wen Leyu was talking about him.

When Li Ye first came into this world, didn't the original owner always compromise himself for the sake of others' feelings?

For Lu Jingyao, the original owner even lost her life due to exhaustion.

Li Ye suddenly asked himself if he still had the habitual "admitting defeat" mentality from his previous life.

In his previous life, Li Ye was instilled with the idea that "if you can't afford to offend someone, you should avoid them; suffering a loss is a blessing" from his family since childhood. When he went to school and started working, he was also magnanimous and didn't care when he encountered some unfair things.

Many people around Li Ye believed this was the right thing to do, and Li Ye himself believed it was the right thing to do for many years.

Later, Li Ye vaguely felt that the "principle of yielding to the happy" might not be right, but it was more suitable for ordinary people like him who had no power or influence but were kind-hearted.

This kind of ingrained thinking is very deep. Even though Li Ye confronted Teacher Yan face-to-face today, after leaving the school, he still inadvertently took a step back and asked the two children for their opinions.

Therefore, Li Ye possesses the memories of his previous life, which is a huge perk of time travel. However, some of the remaining "life wisdom" has gradually become outdated due to the different circumstances of the present.

When Wen Leyu saw Li Ye in a daze, she felt a pang of heartache, mistakenly thinking that she had touched on Li Ye's most painful spot again.

Wen Leyu held Li Ye's hand: "Actually, children are not that fragile. I encountered all kinds of targeting when I was a child. At the time, I felt very bitter, but now when I look back, it may not have all been bad. At least it made me see people's hearts more clearly."

When Wen Leyu and Teacher Ke first fell on hard times and ended up in Qingshui County, they went through a lot of things. For a time, she responded to her surroundings with silence, and even earned the nickname "Little Mute."

But now it seems that after going through hardships, Wen Leyu is more resilient, more capable, and has a brighter future than many of the children who stayed in Beijing and had a smooth life.

Li Ye thought for a moment and said, "Then you and I both need to pay more attention to the child, just like Teacher Ke protected you back then."

Wen Leyu's transformation into her current state is not solely due to her intelligence, but also to Teacher Ke's protection and Li Ye's timely appearance. Therefore, Li Ye must add his own opinions.

Wen Leyu rolled her eyes, saying arrogantly, "Nonsense, do you even need to tell me? What did Xu Xianpeng's parents say today? If they're reasonable, we'll definitely give them sufficient compensation; if they're unreasonable..."

Li Ye shook his head: "I don't know, I didn't see him. Teacher Yan said he was very busy and didn't have time to go to school."

Wen Leyu immediately said seriously, "Isn't this bullying? Can you tolerate this?"

Li Ye said, "Of course I couldn't stand it, but the teacher said I was being petty and just quit, saying he wouldn't care anymore."

Wen Leyu said indignantly, "It's best if she doesn't interfere. If it weren't for her trying to smooth things over, this matter would have been resolved long ago."

Li Ye pursed his lips and smiled, saying, "Indeed, sometimes... good intentions can lead to bad results."

However, Li Ye thought that Teacher Yan had really given up, but to his surprise, just two days later, Teacher Yan notified Xiao Bao'er and Xiao Dou'er to ask their parents to come to the school on the weekend afternoon.

Little Dou blinked her big eyes and said, "The teacher said that Xu Xianpeng's parents have taken time out of their busy schedules to resolve this matter with you completely. Dad, can you let Mom go with you then? Because I secretly found out that Xu Xianpeng's dad, mom, grandpa, and grandma will all be there."

“.”

Li Ye was taken aback for a moment, then said with a laugh, "This isn't a fight, why do we have to compare numbers? Besides, if it were a real fight, I wouldn't mind if the opponents had more people."

But Xiao Dou'er said in a mature tone, "No, Dad, I just think that if Xu Xianpeng's mother throws a tantrum, you're a man, and a good man doesn't fight with a woman."

"Hiss~"

Li Ye couldn't help but gasp and said helplessly, "Girl, you're being too precocious with your words."

...

Although Xiao Dou'er's words made sense, it was inconvenient for Wen Leyu to go. After all, she was no longer comfortable arguing with others, and going there would only make her feel constrained.

But at this time, the Li family is absolutely dominated by women. There is no shortage of sharp-tongued women. On the contrary, starting with Li Kaijian, Li Ye and Xiao Bao'er, these three generations of only sons are not good at talking.

So Grandma Wu Juying simply gave a call, and the eldest sister Li Yue and her younger sisters all volunteered to go and "cheer on" Li Ye.

Because they were unsure whether Xiao Dou'er's "information" was accurate, the eldest sister Li Yue and her three younger sisters became "substitute players." If Xu Xianpeng's parents only had one or two people, then Li Ye and Wu Juying would go in; if the other side had many people, the girls would roll up their sleeves and go in together.

However, when the weekend came, Wu Juying still reminded her granddaughters: "You are all college students, you should act like cultured people, so even if the other party is unreasonable, don't be as shrewish as this old woman."

Li Yue and her younger sisters exchanged glances and couldn't help but smile.

Grandma Wu Juying is clearly taking advantage of her lack of education and old age to be so brazen and shrewish!
