System lottery, give it to me!
After the meeting, Qin Ruqing and his sister followed their father back to their own courtyard.
Qin Deming walked in front with his hands behind his back and his face shrugged. As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't help turning around and saying, "Ruyu, how could you say... such a thing in front of the elders today!" He spoke in a hurried tone, but paused for a moment, probably trying to find an adjective, but was too surprised to find the words.
At that time, because of Ruyu's rebuttal, although he was not angry, he still had to consider his son's opinion. Just when he was in a dilemma, the great elder spoke up and announced that Qin Moli would be severely punished, Qin Luxuan would be lightly punished, and Ruyu would not be punished because she was innocent. This put an end to the matter.
He was not the kind of father who would get angry if his son opposed his opinion, but the development of the matter was really strange, and he needed to ask about it later.
Qin Ruyu was not surprised by his father's inquiry. Just as he was about to explain, he suddenly heard a clear female voice coming from the side.
"What? Why did I hear today that Ruyu had a conflict with the second brother's child?"
Several people turned their heads and saw the clan leader's wife, who had heard the news, walking quickly. When she came to the front, she directly passed Qin Deming and looked at Qin Ruyu behind her, anxiously asking: "Son, did you fight with that kid Lu Xuan? Are you injured?"
Qin Ruyu shook his head. The clan leader's wife breathed a sigh of relief and asked immediately: "How did you win or lose?"
Qin Ruyu seemed a little embarrassed and lowered his head and said: "Yes... I beat my second brother."
Qin Ruqing poked his head out from behind Qin Ruyu and added mischievously: "My brother made a breakthrough in the battle and won a big victory !”
Luo Xian’s face lit up with joy, “Really?” She looked Qin Ruyu up and down and praised, “Good, good, good! You fought well! My son has a promising future!”
Qin Deming, who was ignored, looked helpless and finally couldn’t help but speak, “Madam, why are you still exaggerating… Although Ruyu made a breakthrough in the fight, she also lost her strength and injured me… I saw that the injury almost involved the heart, it’s no joke.”
Luo Xian rolled her eyes directly, “So what? Winning and losing are common in the military. It’s not intentional. Do you want my son to make amends?”
Qin Deming couldn’t argue with Luo Xian, and his beard was curled with anger. While talking, the family of four had already sat at the round table in the living room.
Qin Deming told the whole story of today from beginning to end. Luo Xian frowned as she listened, and then her brows relaxed.
"From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with what Ruyu said!"
"What's wrong with him? It was others who provoked him at the beginning, and Ruyu refused repeatedly. In the end, he agreed to the competition, and then he broke through in the battle - from beginning to end, from inside to outside, Ruyu's performance was excellent!"
"But..." Qin Deming stammered, wanting to refute.
Luo Xian raised her eyebrows and changed the subject lightly, "Oh, you said that Qin Luxuan was beaten? Wasn't that an accident - since you dared to provoke us, you must be prepared to lose or get hurt!" Qin Deming
admitted that his son did nothing wrong, "But, today, Ruyu's attitude is really tough. I'm afraid that the tribe members will be left with an impression that you are intolerant."
Luo Xian glared and retorted, "What do you mean by tolerance? Is it tolerance to swallow your anger? Or is it tolerance to admit that you haven't done anything wrong?"
The clan leader's wife raised her delicate eyebrows and snorted coldly, "In my opinion, not punishing Qin Moli on the spot today, but handing him over to the second house for private handling, is already tolerance!"
The voices of the two people tended to rise slightly, and the servants around them all dispersed with glances and closed the door.
The couple was concentrating on arguing. Qin Ruyu sat upright at the round table, listening to his parents' quarrel with a serious look on his face. Because Qin Ruyu felt that his mother's scolding had a faint sense of scolding in his heart. Some of his ideas were actually very similar to his father's.
Qin Ruqing, on the other hand, automatically regarded her parents' quarrel as background noise, and was lying on the table playing with her nails in boredom - this body was only eight years old, so she often couldn't suppress her instincts and did some childish behaviors that were not in line with her psychological age.
The two finally finished arguing. The result was self-evident, and the clan leader was naturally defeated.
The clan's wife, who had just won a verbal battle, stroked her temples gracefully and put away her strength. Suddenly, her expression froze, as if she remembered something, and she asked Qin Ruyu: "Ruyu, did you suddenly come to your senses today? I noticed that you seem to be acting very differently from usual?"
Qin Ruyu felt a little ashamed, but still said truthfully: "No...it was my sister who pointed it out to me."
He felt ashamed that as a brother he still needed his sister's advice, but then he thought that his sister had been smart since she was a child and had superior intelligence, not inferior to himself, so he didn't need to be ashamed and raised his head again.
He repeated the words Qin Ruqing had written on his hand: "My sister said, if you take one step back, you will take all the steps back."
"Later, when I asked her about it, my sister explained that it was not a big deal, but if you backed down because of it, others would think you were easy to bully - today they would make you give in to things you shouldn't give in to, and make you admit to things you didn't do wrong, but in the future, they would make it worse. By then, others would think that you should be tolerant, and if you don't, you are narrow-minded and 'treat your people harshly'."
My sister was young, and her face was still childish. She looked up and said this to him in a childish voice, which had a double psychological impact on him.
There was a lot of silence at the round table for a while, and Qin Deming and his wife both fell into deep thought because of this sentence.
Qin Deming was thinking about the phrase "one step back, all steps back". At this moment, he was shocked by being poked in the heart, and also had unspeakable bitterness.
"At that time, others will think that you should be tolerant. If you don't tolerate, you will be considered narrow-minded and harsh to your clan members." - Isn't this a true portrayal of him as the clan leader?
His cautious concession was partly due to his personality, and partly because of the situation.
Putting away the complexity in his heart, Qin Deming looked at Qin Ruqing and asked, "Qingqing, is that so?"
Qin Ruqing saw her parents looking at her, blinked a few times, and nodded, "Yes." She smiled again, her eyes bright, and said, "And my brother was able to accept the second brother's invitation to fight, and it was also my deliberate instigation." She was straightforward.
Deliberately instigated... Qin Deming and his wife looked at each other, and Luo Xian asked: "Why did Qingqing encourage brother to do this?"
"Because I noticed that brother was always bullied in school!" Qin Ruqing snorted, frowned and corrected, "It's not bullying, it's just that he is a little, unwelcome? Not valued?"
"They take brother's things and talk to brother casually. The second brother takes the lead in provoking brother, and they always watch the show, as if they regard brother's good temper as a good person."
"Then I was very unhappy when I saw it, and it happened that the second elder brother came to pick a fight that day, so I encouraged my elder brother to go up and compete with him - because I think that the current situation of the school is mostly related to my elder brother's concession. My elder brother thinks that he is the eldest brother and should give in to his younger brother, but the people below don't think so at all. They just think that my elder brother is not strong enough, weak, and so on, and then they start to look down on him."
Qin Ruqing's tone was casual, with her strong personal emotions, but it also revealed a lot of information -
1. Qin Ruyu, as the eldest grandson of the Qin family, is not in a good situation in the school.
2. The factions in the school are obvious, and there is a phenomenon of competing for positions.
Qin Ruqing admitted that she deliberately revealed this information to her parents. Otherwise, with her brother's taciturn mouth, he would not open his mouth even if he was given another five years.
After listening to the story, Qin Deming and his wife were silent for a long time, and both of them looked moved and complicated.
After a while, Qin Deming seemed to have found his voice. He first squeezed a kind smile to Qin Ruqing and said, "Qingqing did a good job." When he turned around and looked at Qin Ruyu, his face unconsciously sank, "Ruyu, is Qingqing telling the truth?"
Qin Ruyu didn't expect his sister to tell such details, which made him a little ashamed - as the eldest child among the Qin family's grandchildren, he believed that he should have a certain authority in the school and let his cousins believe in him. But the method he adopted seemed to have the opposite effect. Now that the matter has been exposed, his parents and sister still need to worry about it. This... really makes him ashamed.
Qin Ruyu wanted to lower his head, but he forced himself to straighten his eyes and said to his father frankly: "Indeed... that's the case."
As expected, his father did not scold him. Instead, he sighed and said in a complicated way: "You did the right thing today... Don't feel psychologically burdened. I know what kind of person my son is. In the future, you should be tougher in school. With this battle breakthrough, no one will make things difficult for you anymore."
The situation of his son is not his situation. This incident is not a bad thing. It can be regarded as a lesson for them.
Of course, Luo Xian was generous in praising Qin Ruqing, and after the praise, she also gave a little reminder, "My son is very talented, but you can only say this to your family, and don't show it in front of outsiders." A tall tree attracts the wind, and Qingqing is already very talented, so it's better to be cautious.
Qin Ruqing nodded naturally.
As for her having such amazing words at this age, Luo Xian and his wife were not too surprised, because - they already knew it.
Qin Ruqing is smart and has a mind beyond her age. This is no longer a secret in their family.
Privately, Qin Deming and his wife once guessed that Qingqing was either the reincarnation of a great man in the world of immortal cultivation, or the legendary "born with wisdom".
Therefore, Qin Deming and his wife were surprised by Qin Ruqing's amazing remarks, but they also received it well.
And this phenomenon is exactly what Qin Ruqing wanted.
As early as when she first crossed over, she was worried about how to express herself - she was an adult, but she was born as a child, so should she show a little special, or pretend to be a child from beginning to end?
Qin Ruqing was entangled for a while, until she found that this world was not an ordinary ancient world, but a world of cultivating immortals.
She suddenly became enlightened - you have cultivated immortals, and there are all kinds of things such as reincarnation and resurrection from the dead. What's wrong with me being smarter? It
is indeed impossible for her to pretend to be a child all the time. The main thing is that it is difficult to pretend, and it may be exposed after a long time.
Besides, she really can't be considered an adult now - this body is too young, so she can't completely get rid of the repression of her body's instincts, and often shows some childishness that doesn't match her psychological age.
Because of this, Qin Ruqing decided to show what she is like, and let them fill in the rest in their own minds.
So, she looked like "a child with innate wisdom and extraordinary talent" in front of her parents and brother.
Now, looking at their looks, Qin Ruqing knows that they accept it well, and her previous attempts were right.
-After
this closed-door family meeting ended, Qin Ruqing returned to her room and began to check her system.
She heard the dinging sound in her head long before, but because she was busy talking, she only had time to check it attentively now.
[Qin Ruyu broke through in battle and her cultivation level improved. The progress bar of branch line 1 (Excellent Descendants) has been updated. Do you want to claim the reward? 】
[New mission of branch line 2 (Building a harmonious and united family atmosphere) has been triggered - Young Clan Leader is Young and Promising, do you want to claim the reward? 】 [Branch line 2 mission (1) Improve the prestige of the clan leader, the progress bar has been updated, do you want to claim the reward? ] Qin Ruqing didn't expect to see so many missions after clicking on them, and hurriedly said, "Accept all and update." Only after the update did he start to check carefully. The progress bar of the branch line of excellent descendants has been updated - well, this should be related to the improvement of the brother's realm. As for the newly added mission of mission 2 [Young Clan Leader is Young and Promising] - this should be to say that the breakthrough in battle brought unexpected benefits to the brother, causing a huge change in his mentality and realm of realization. By the way, after my brother said that in the meeting room, those people looked at my brother differently. This change and improvement in the impression among the clan members should also be one of the driving factors. Qin Ruqing nodded to herself and saw the last item, enhancing the prestige of the clan leader? How did this progress bar move forward? (Although only a little bit) Could it be that this incident also had an impact on my father? Well... If that's the case, it's not in vain that she deliberately said those words in front of her parents. After reading the update, Qin Ruqing finally started to check the rewards, which was really exciting, because she seemed to have noticed that the system rewarded her with a chance to win a lottery. Hehehe... I've heard the system talk about the lottery before. The prize pool comes from the system mall. The items are random, but there is a rule that it must be in line with her current level and the level of her family. For example, she is now in the spiritual cultivation period. Even if she is lucky enough to go to heaven, it is impossible for her to draw a fairy weapon or something. It is not in her current prize pool at all. But even so, the top batch of things in the prize pool are still extremely rare and cannot be easily obtained with her current strength. This time, she got a total of 236 points in addition to a chance to draw a lottery. After Qin Ruqing checked the points, she squinted her little face and deliberately washed her hands and face before coming back. As an African, suffering from physical condition, sometimes I really have to believe in some mysterious metaphysics. Maybe it can increase a bit of European energy? After suppressing the excitement in his heart and praising the European Emperor ten times in his heart, Qin Ruqing said to the system in a crisp voice: "System, start the lottery!"
Please, please, just let the kid succeed this once!
The system flashed white light, the panel refreshed, and a line of words appeared. Qin Ruqing's eyes froze when she saw the line of words.
The gift package did not contain a lot of things as imagined. On the contrary, there was only one kind of reward.
[Four-leaf Ganoderma Lucidum*3]
Qin Ruqing, who had been to school and received basic herbal medicine education, had a piece of information flash in his mind instantly.
——Four-leaf Ganoderma Lucidum, the main ingredient for refining the Foundation Building Pill!
Qin Ruqing: !!!
Is this something that her little black hands can pull out?
