Gu Nian said, "Her brother is easy to treat. You and Grandma Xiao can prescribe some medicine for him and he can recover slowly. As for her brother, even though he was well-educated at the Royal Academy, he has become dependent on his stepmother over the years. Once he recovers, he probably won't hate his stepmother as much as her brother and she do."
Gu Si frowned: "No way! This is equivalent to having your mother's killer as your enemy, that's irreconcilable."
Gu Nian shook her head: "You don't know, I heard Xue Qianyu talk about Zheng Qiu's younger brother. He's been spoiled rotten and is extremely dissolute. But he has one fatal flaw: he's filial to his elders. Who are these elders? His parents. Her brother and her older brother are biological brothers from the same mother, and normally, the two brothers should have a very good relationship. But because her younger brother's birth mother died after he was born, and he was raised by his stepmother, he only has a good relationship with his stepmother and her children. He doesn't care about his biological older brother at all."
"So, Xiao Qiu's younger brother is quite difficult to deal with."
Gu Yingxue said, "Then telling him the truth won't do any good?"
Gu Nian shook her head: "Do you really think Xiao Qiu's brother is stupid? Does he really want to see his own brother recognize a thief as his mother? I've secretly given him countless hints, but unfortunately, he faces a lot of obstacles in the household. For every word he says, others can say ten. Her younger brother started as a clueless infant and was raised by his stepmother, so he's bound to be closer to her. His biological older brother became lame later, so he probably rarely sees her anymore! So, he must have told him the truth, but in the end, he didn't change anything! So, what's the point of telling him the truth?"
Gu Xin pursed her lips, somewhat helplessly saying, "I've never heard Xiao Qiu mention any of this. Now that you mention it, her brother is indeed a lot of trouble!"
After a pause, Gu Xin added, "However, we can let his younger brother see his stepmother's true colors for himself!"
The group looked at Gu Xin.
Gu Xin continued, "I know that being able to raise an enemy's son to the point of being useless and still make the enemy's son grateful to her means that this Lady Hou is no ordinary person, and her true colors cannot be easily revealed. But the truth is the truth, and the falsehood is the falsehood. She was able to deceive Xiao Qiu's younger brother for more than ten years, only when no one interfered or when the person who interfered had too little power. As long as someone interferes and has more power than her, then she cannot deceive her forever."
Gu Hui nodded: "Xin Xin makes a good point. But this has to be done step by step, slowly. We can't expect him to see the truth all at once. Instead, we have to gradually break down his beliefs of the past ten years, make him disappointed in himself, and thus make him re-evaluate the people around him. Neither we nor Xiao Qiu and her brother can change him directly. The only one who can change him is himself."
Gu Si: "Put him in a do-or-die situation, and he'll survive. Let him suffer as much as he can!"
Gu Yingxue: "That's right. Some people will never see reality clearly unless you give them a good blow."
Looking at her sisters, Gu Xin said sincerely, "Big sister, older sister, Sisi, Xue'er, I'm so happy to be sisters with you all! I must have done a lot of good deeds in my past life to be able to treat my friends as friends!"
