Chapter 259 As a father,



Li Shucheng, after all, is not that smart.

Whatever he is asked to do, he will only think it is a trivial matter.

Li Shucheng couldn't figure out the consequences behind this matter, so he did it.

If it were a smart person, he would think about the meaning behind this matter and would hesitate to do it.

What's more, he is considered a family member, so no problems were found in his screening over the years.

After all, he only did this one thing, and he didn't do anything inappropriate afterwards. Who could have thought of something that happened so long ago?

Including Zhai Jiu, he had never thought of investigating before. If he had not been provoked by Mu Lianshen to say those words this time, he probably would never have thought that there was anything wrong with the previous investigation.

Zhai Jiu thought for a moment, then looked at Chen Ye, his eyes cold and indifferent: "Li Shucheng can't stay in this position anymore, find a reason to let him step down."

Chen Ye asked, "What if we ask your third brother?"

"Never mind,"

"Do you want to check on the other relatives of the Zhai family as well?"

Zhai Jiu said calmly: "I will arrange it when I return."

After leaving the tavern, Zhai Jiu returned to Zhai's house.

As soon as he entered the house, someone informed him that Zhai Shixiong was waiting for him in the study.

Zhai Jiu stood at the door of the study for a long time before knocking on the door.

Hearing a familiar voice coming from inside, he pushed the door open and walked in.

I saw Zhai Shixiong's figure at the study window.

His eyes flickered slightly, he walked over and said respectfully, "Dad,"

Zhai Shixiong turned to look at him and asked with a smile: "What are you busy with?"

Zhai Jiu was silent for a moment, but still didn't want to hide it from him. After all, if he wanted to investigate everyone in the Zhai family, he would have to alert him.

So he organized his words and said, "My third sister-in-law's brother did something not very good, I went to solve it."

"Oh, how did you solve it?"

Zhai Shixiong walked to the desk beside him with his hands behind his back and sat down.

"Dad, don't you ask him what he did?"

Zhai Shixiong said with a smile: "Xiaojiu, we have too many family members, and everyone has different ideas in their hearts, so it is easy for something to go wrong. This is inevitable. Your eldest brother has dealt with a lot of things in secret."

"He tried to sow discord between me and Mu Lianshen,"

Hearing what he said, Zhai Shixiong's smile froze. He looked up at Zhai Jiu and sighed, "You and Lian Shen's relationship was already problematic. No wonder they started with you."

"Xiaojiu, you know that your personality is different from anyone else in your family,"

"The relationship between the two of you has come to this point, and it seems that you have an inseparable responsibility to me."

Zhai Shixiong frowned and seemed to exhale, "It is common for parents to use other children's children to motivate their own children."

"I often say that you are not as good as Lian Shen, but your uncle Mu also said the same thing to Lian Shen, and that's how I educated your other brothers."

"You and Lian Shen grew up together, and when we were educating our children, we compared the two of you,"

"You can ask Lian Shen if his father often says he is not as good as you."

"You have a weird temper. Others are fine. When they get angry, they just fight. But you are different. You keep everything inside."

Zhai Shixiong smiled, "I have nine children in my life. Life was too hard before, and I lost your brothers. Only you are left. I am very grateful to you,"

"It's the same approach in education,"

He sighed again, "Now I know that we should pay attention to the method when educating children."

"My way of education is wrong for you, Xiaojiu. Daddy gave you the wrong kind of fatherly love, which is not suitable for your education."

"I was only concerned with educating and motivating you, but I didn't notice that you were becoming more and more repressed and less willing to express your thoughts,"

He finished speaking in one breath, raised his head, and looked directly at Zhai Jiu, "But even if I fail, I am still a father."

"As a father, I want to say a few more words,"

"When you and Lian Shen had a big fight when you were teenagers, your uncle Mu and I were a little worried that you two would really become enemies in the future, so we asked you to apologize solemnly and use this as a warning to both families."

"Kid, this has nothing to do with the family, the Mu family or the Zhai family. It's just the two of you. We want you to remember the feelings you had when you were little."

"I don't know if you still remember that before you were ten years old, you two were almost inseparable, and you promised to be good brothers for life."

"But in the end," Zhai Shixiong said slowly, with some difficulty in speaking, "Lian Shen gave you his most important amulet. What about you, Xiaojiu?"

"He remembers you as his brother. What about you? Have you forgotten?"

"Dad is sometimes very scared, afraid that you might really go the wrong way, so I have been strict with you all these years."

"When daddy is still here, he can still control you. When daddy is gone, what are you going to become, Xiaojiu?"

Zhai Jiu had been silent all this time, but when he heard this, he looked up and said in a deep voice, "Why do you think I will change?"

Zhai Shixiong smiled and said, "Xiaojiu, I am your father, and I have walked decades more than you."

"You are different from your other brothers. Some of your brothers are honest, some are content with the status quo, and some are smart but timid."

"But you are different. You are smart, brave, and have an outgoing personality. You like to suppress your temper. If you suppress it for a long time, will there be any unpredictable consequences if you explode again?"

"Xiao Jiu, have you ever thought about what your ending would be if you really started to become an enemy of Lian Shen?"

Zhai Shixiong waved his hand. "If you don't fail, but succeed, you are better than him. Then what? What do you get?"
