"Mom, there's no need for you to be so wronged!"

Gu Xiuwu said with a puzzled look on his face.

"Xiuwu, mother has not been wronged." Shen Ningsi felt warm in her heart. She already knew why Gu Xiuwu was so unhappy.

"Xiu Wen, Xiu Wu, come here, mother has something to tell you." Shen Ningsi thought for a while and called them into the study.

"Mom, is there anything you want to tell us?" Although Gu Xiuwen didn't understand why Shen Ningsi did this, he still respected Shen Ningsi's ideas.

"Both of you sit down."

Shen Ningsi pointed to the two chairs in the study and motioned for the two brothers to sit down.

Gu Xiuwen and Gu Xiuwu heard it and without any questions, they each found a chair and sat down.

"Do you two think that what mother did today was wrong?"

There was actually no need to ask Shen Ningsi's question. The expression on Gu Xiuwu's face had already betrayed what he was thinking at the moment.

"Mom, you know these people have ulterior motives. Why would you agree to their demands? Can't you just say no?"

Gu Xiuwu finally couldn't help it and asked directly.

"Xiuwu, you've been studying in a private school for a while, don't you know that people's words are scary?"

Shen Ningsi sighed. To teach a child, one must be patient!

"Master Du said so." After Gu Xiuwu finished speaking, Gu Xiuwen also nodded.

These days, they are like two trees that are about to wither and dry up, madly absorbing knowledge.

Master Du was a very famous scholar, and the two brothers were willing to learn, so they did not hide anything and taught him everything they could.

Although only a short period of time had passed, the two brothers seemed much smarter than before.

After Shen Ningsi finished speaking, he looked at the two brothers with a smile on his face, feeling quite happy that his son had grown up.

"Well, since Mr. Du has already said it, I won't continue to explain this issue."

Ana Shen spoke lightly.

"We are just in this remote village now. No matter what we do, there will be no problem. But don't forget that you are studying hard now, not to continue farming here."

Ana Shen took a deep breath.

Gu Hong will definitely be the future Duke of Zhenguo, so even they cannot do anything wrong, otherwise these people will definitely use them as evidence in the Golden Palace in the future.

Shen Ningsi is very mature in mind and is not one of those rural women who have never seen the world.

When it comes to human hearts and human nature, she can always see things clearly.

"Mom, even if this is the case, you shouldn't agree to their unreasonable request. You know what kind of monsters they are!"

Even Gu Xiuwen couldn't help but speak.

"Of course Mother knows what kind of people they are, but Xiuwen, Xiuwu, you must remember that if we are just a well-off family and don't help them, outsiders will only say that we are inhumane."

"However, if we reach a certain level and these people ask us for help, and we ignore them, their style of painting will definitely change again."

Ana Shen spoke lightly.

"The weak will always stick together for warmth. Although the quality of these people is a bit poor, they are from Wanning Village after all."

Ana Shen spoke lightly.

Even if people in the capital knew what happened between them, what would it matter?

"Human nature is always vulnerable. They will only stand on the moral high ground and accuse us. Your future is bright, but you cannot let these people hinder it."

Shen Ningsi would never let this happen!

No matter what happens in the future, she will leave these people speechless.

So, she asked Gu Xiuwen to call the head of the village over just now, so that if these people go back on their words in the future, she would have a witness.

After hearing what she said, Gu Xiuwu and Gu Xiuwen fell silent.

They didn't expect that a big part of the reason why Shen Ningsi did this was for them.

"Xiu Wen, Xiu Wu, whatever you encounter in the future, remember not to just look at the surface, but to think deeper. After all, human hearts are so complicated. You are still young, so no matter what you do, you must be more careful."

Shen Ningsi said this seriously, she knew that the two brothers could understand what she meant.

"So, mother, the reason you treated us like that was because you wanted to see if we brothers and sisters were kind-hearted?"

Gu Xiuwu asked in amazement as if he had discovered a new world.

Fortunately, Shen Ningsi just picked up the teacup and didn't drink it, otherwise he would definitely choke on his saliva.

"Ahem... Human nature cannot withstand temptation, but you have already earned my approval! Okay, let's not talk about this for now. As long as you understand what I mean, that's all."

Shen Ningsi coughed lightly, she was worried that if she continued to speak, she would not be able to hold it in.

"Well, mother, let's go out to eat. Master Du will be giving us a lesson soon."

Gu Xiuwen looked thoughtful.

Ana Shen didn’t know that today in the study, these simple few words would make the two children’s minds become very delicate and calm.

After dinner, the two brothers and Gu Yuner went to the private school.

Shen Ningsi was not idle either. She went to the fertile fields where she had planted a hundred acres of winter wheat.

Of course, the villagers of Wanning Village did not know about this.

There are soldiers guarding the villagers there, so they dare not go even if they want to!

When Shen Ningsi came to the fertile fields, he carefully observed the growth of winter wheat.

It’s pretty much the same as my estimate.

"Sisi, can the wheat planted this winter really survive?" Gu Hong had come behind her without her knowing.

Looking at Shen Ningsi's thin back, I felt a pang of heartache.

"How can we know if we don't try? If the winter wheat in these 100 acres of fertile land doesn't survive, we can still plant other crops next spring. The only loss will be some seeds."

Ana Shen spoke lightly.

She was still full of hope for the winter wheat.

However, at this moment, no one would believe it even if she said it.

So, it’s better to wait until the final result comes out. Others will believe it without her having to say anything.
