"If someone bullies you and they just yell at you, just treat them as dogs. But if they come up to hit you, don't be polite, hit them back with all your might, and they won't dare to bully you easily again." It's hard to reason with children.
"What if I can't win?"
"If you can't beat them, just run away." Chen Heng pinched his little face, so cute: "Our lives are unique in this world, so we must cherish our lives, understand?"
"Got it. Aunt and uncle, I'm coming in." Seeing Master Qi waving at him, Xie Min trotted over.
Shen Heng stood up and found Xie Jian standing next to her. He looked at her with complicated eyes, so she smiled at him and said, "Let's go home."
Xie Jian turned his face away uncomfortably, then thought about the woman who would be with him for the rest of his life, and turned back to her and said, "Okay."
Chen Heng: “…” It’s a bit strange.
On the way back, they met many members of the Xie family. The way they looked at them was no longer full of indifference and disgust as before, and occasionally a few of them would even say hello to them.
"Since you want your sister-in-law and Min'er to be treated well by the family, then you should at least change your attitude towards them, right?" Chen Heng couldn't help but remind her.
Xie Jian had a cold face and pursed his lips.
This treacherous minister from the past was so good to his family that it was beyond words. It was for this reason that Shen Heng reminded her of this. Moreover, after spending some time with Xia Min'er, she also liked him from the bottom of her heart.
Chen Heng also knew that this was too difficult for Xie Jian. For Xie Jian, it was equivalent to letting go of the past and swallowing the hurt and grievances he had suffered. However, in the adult world, almost no one considered things from an emotional perspective. Everyone considered things from a profit perspective.
Just as Shen Heng was thinking about how to explain this to Xie Jian, she heard him mutter, "I'll try my best."
"You're a good uncle."
Xie Jian didn't like the way Chen Heng looked at him. Even though her eyes were smiling and her smile was warm, he always felt that she was looking at him as a junior.
When the two of them arrived home, Xia was just unloading rice from the wheelbarrow with the rice shop clerk, and Guo was busy helping.
"Thank you." Xia sent the rice shop clerk away, and then asked Xie Jian to help move the big vat out of the firewood room.
"Sister-in-law, how can I help?" Shen Heng asked.
"Get some water to rinse the vat."
"Okay."
After the family had done everything they needed to do, it suddenly started to rain lightly.
The three of them sat down under the eaves to rest. Xia made them some ginger tea and said, "The cold air is blowing."
He picked up the cup, took a sip, exhaled a breath of hot air, and then held the cup to warm his hands. The three people did not notice that their actions were surprisingly consistent.
"Ajian, when the cakes are ready, let's go to the academy and bring the basket of eggs we just saved to the principal." Xia said.
"Sister-in-law, if the dean doesn't agree to let me go back to the academy, it doesn't matter what I give you." When he was expelled from school, it was more because of the exclusion of his classmates and the interference of other families, which forced the academy to expel him. It was not decided by a few eggs.
When these things were mentioned, Xia Shi felt very uncomfortable: "Xie Quan was exiled, and there is one less person in the family who can take the imperial examination. It would be great if the family could guarantee you to take the imperial examination."
Chen Heng was also quite curious about this matter. Who was the guarantor for Xie Jian to take the imperial examination?
