Wu Jiang sighed and said, "Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony. Since you've said so, I'll take it."
Wu Jiang knew perfectly well that his niece was saying this on purpose to make him feel better.
Considering his family's situation, he ultimately did not refuse and accepted his niece's kindness.
Just take it. He can help out whenever the family needs it in the future.
It's just that my sister wasn't lucky enough to have such a wonderful child. She should have been enjoying her life, but she left us too soon.
When Wu Jiang thought about it, his heart ached and his eyes welled up with tears.
He quickly took a breath and said, "Alright, we should go back now, otherwise we won't be able to finish the work in the fields."
"Lili, if this brat comes looking for you again, just kick him out and ignore him," Wu Jiang said to Song Lili.
"Uncle, my cousin should know he was wrong, so he definitely won't come looking for me again, so don't worry."
Moreover, she had already taught Wu Huan how to grow vegetables in a greenhouse, so why would Wu Huan come back because of this?
"Yes, sir, I know I was wrong, don't worry. I'll definitely consult with you before I do anything in the future."
"Don't say that in front of my cousin. I'm too ashamed to stay here any longer." Wu Huan really wanted to cover her face and disappear into a hole right now.
Now I'm really embarrassed. Not only am I losing face in front of my uncle, but I'm also losing face in front of my cousins. How am I going to face anyone after this?
"So you know you have no shame? I thought you didn't feel anything. It's good that you know you have no shame. Let's see if you'll do such stupid things again."
Wu Jiang didn't care whether Wu Huan would be ashamed to face people. In his view, they were all his own children, so it was fine.
So, Wu Huan was scolded by his father without giving him any face before he was taken away.
"Lili, I'm sorry, brother." After Wu Jiang and his son left, Song Jianshe suddenly said to Song Lili.
"It's alright, I don't mind. If you really go too far, I can pretend I don't have a brother like you," Song Lili said casually. She went back in a good mood.
She knew why Song Jianshe said that, but she didn't want to say it was okay.
Whether it's family, friendship, or love, it's all reciprocal; there's give and take, and it can't be a one-sided effort from just one person.
So, as long as you haven't made any effort, I will take back what I have given, that's all.
Song Lili made her stance clear, but Song Jianshe was stunned. What did he just hear? He couldn't have misheard, could he?
My sister actually said she'd pretend he didn't exist as her brother?
Song Jianshe broke out in a cold sweat, because he had a feeling that Song Lili would really do it.
Thinking about all the awful things he had done before, he couldn't help but shudder. My God, it was terrifying! He had been hovering on the edge of death for so long without even realizing it.
That's terrifying. He must learn from this and never let Lili have such thoughts again.
Yes, I must treat my younger sister well from now on. I will definitely listen to her.
Xia Niu ignored everyone else, saw Wu Jiang and the other person off, and went back to her room, where she didn't come out again.
"Sister, I'm still the smartest." Song Fang looked at Song Lili with some pride. "I listen to my sister the most, I'm the smartest."
That slightly smug look made Song Lili find it adorable no matter how she looked at it.
"Yes, you're the smartest." Song Lili nodded in agreement. Indeed, Song Fang was very smart, but even more insightful.
She sees many things clearly, but because of past relationships, she has never shown them in front of others.
As Song Fang's relative, Song Lili knew about it.
Song Fang wasn't wrong to say that about herself.
"Sister..." Song Fang felt embarrassed when Song Lili said this, and she tugged at her clothes, her face flushed.
"Alright, what's there to be embarrassed about? You're naturally smart. We should face our strengths squarely, otherwise being too modest is just hypocrisy," Song Lili said with a laugh.
Chinese people have always been humble and never boast about themselves in public, especially in this day and age.
However, Song Lili came from the future, so she was still able to face herself squarely. She should acknowledge her strengths and, even more so, her weaknesses.
What she is teaching Song Fang now is to face herself squarely, to know her strengths, and of course, her weaknesses as well.
“You don’t need to blush when others praise you anymore. You know in your heart whether you have it or not. As for those flattering compliments, just ignore them and let them go,” Song Lili said casually.
"I understand." Although Song Fang's face was still flushed, she nodded seriously, indicating that she had remembered Song Lili's words.
After Wu Huan's little incident, Song Lili's life returned to normal, and soon it was already past April.
The Qingming Festival is approaching, and Song Lili overheard Song Yongren mentioning that they were going to visit her mother's grave.
Song Lili squinted, wondering, "Going to the grave? I wonder if something might happen?"
However, before the Qingming Festival even arrived, some unexpected news came: Xu Youcai had been taken away by the Red Guards.
This surprised Song Lili. Weren't Xu Youcai and Luo Juan allies? Why did Xu Youcai suddenly suffer?
Or is it that the alliance between these two is only directed at her, and if one of them quits, the alliance will disband?
(I must say, you're absolutely right. Their alliance was specifically designed to target you.)
Upon hearing this news, Song Lili was overjoyed, but also surprised.
She had been thinking about finding a way to get rid of Xu Youcai completely, but she never expected that someone else would do it for her.
This is great! I don't even need to lift a finger to teach those annoying people a lesson. Should I laugh or laugh?
Song Lili watched as Song Jianshe passionately recounted the scene of Xu Youcai being criticized and denounced, but she felt no emotion whatsoever.
In Song Lili's view, Xu Youcai brought this upon himself and had only himself to blame.
If he hadn't jumped out and started causing trouble everywhere, no one would have paid any attention to him, and things wouldn't have turned out this way.
It was because he was resentful and always wanted revenge that he ended up like this.
Most importantly, he actually conspired with Luo Juan, a woman with a heart of stone, to seek revenge against a treacherous person. In the end, wouldn't he be the one who was devoured and left with nothing but bones?
Therefore, he deserves all of this; he has no one to blame but himself.
Song Lili was happy to see Xu Youcai being criticized and tortured by those Red Guards, so that he would know what it was like.
Let's see if he'll ever dare to scheme against others again. He'll get caught by the Red Guards for scheming against others; let him experience that first.
