Chapter 408: Why are you so fierce? You really dare to think so!
Wen Jiu interrupted curiously, "What?"
Why are you so serious?
There are no babies at home, right?
Old Master Wen glared at Wen Jinyan, then turned to Wen Jiu and said softly, "The knife, the one I used on the battlefield before."
Stained with the blood of countless ghosts.
Even Wen Jiu was shocked. He slapped Wen Jinyan twice and said, "Wen Jinyan, what do you want grandpa's knife for?"
Can we play with it?
Wen Jinyan muttered softly, "My friend said his house is haunted at night, and he often dreams of killing ghosts and blood flowing in his dreams, so I want to give him my grandfather's knife to ward off evil spirits."
"You still dare to say that?"
Old Master Wen raised his hand high, as if it would fall on Wen Jinyan’s face in the next second.
Warming wine: "..."
Why are you so fierce?
You really dare to think like that!
Wen Jianyan was so frightened that his head shrank. He quickly sat down and collected the bamboo sticks, fearing that the slap from Old Man Wen would land on his face, which would leave him swollen for several days.
Seeing that he had behaved himself, Wen Jiu sighed and hugged Grandpa Wen's arm to plead for mercy, "Grandpa, please don't be angry. I mean, he already knows he was wrong and won't do it again. I promise you that if it happens again, I will beat him with a stick for you!"
Old Master Wen finally calmed down a bit, patted Wen Jiu's hand and said, "You are the best. The bad boy always makes me angry."
Wen Jinyan lowered her head silently, pretending to be a quail, and had no desire to interrupt at all.
After making Old Man Wen happy, Wen Jiu continued to work on the frame of the lantern. Wen Jianyan had just been taught a lesson and was as well-behaved as a kitten. He would do whatever Wen Jiu said, and would sit there and learn obediently even if he didn't know how to do it. The main thing was to make him well-behaved and obedient.
But the warm atmosphere did not last long, because an unexpected guest came to the house——
Chu Zhuru.
She came in with a bunch of things and greeted Old Master Wen with a smile, "Uncle, I haven't seen you for a long time. I think you are getting stronger and stronger?"
"Hahaha……"
"Maybe it's because Jiu is back to accompany me, I'm happy!"
"Hurry up and sit down."
Old Master Wen smiled and asked her to sit down. He patted Wen Jinyan on the shoulder and said, "Hurry up and wash your hands and pour some water for your aunt."
Wen Jinyan looked up at Chu Zhuru and went to pour water without saying a word.
Wen Jiu looked at her with a somewhat cold gaze, and said in a distant tone: "Aunt is here."
When Chu Zhuru saw Wen Jiu's beautiful face, she wanted to tear her into pieces. She lived a leisurely and comfortable life, but unfortunately her daughter was still in prison!
But thinking of the purpose of her visit today, she could only suppress her hatred and said with a gentle smile: "Ajiu, what are you doing at home? Why don't you go out and buy some bamboo and knives?"
Wen Jiu said, "Lantern, when you are bored, just make it at home for fun."
Chu Xiuli was in the study room and heard the noise outside. She quickly put down her pen and came out. When she saw it was Chu Zhuru, her expression immediately turned cold.
"Aju is here."
Seeing Chu Xiuli's cold attitude, Chu Zhuru had the urge to turn her face away, but she pinched her palm and forced herself to hold back.
"Yes, sis."
"The New Year is coming soon and I have nothing to do. I know you like walnuts, so I bought some and brought some over. I've also got your favorite red bean cake, which is still hot from the pan! Come and try it and see if it tastes different from before." Chu Zhuru said as she hurriedly bent down to get the things.
But Chu Xiuli didn't give her a good face at all. She directly grabbed her arm and said, "I'm tired of eating the red bean cakes from that store and I don't like eating them anymore. I don't like walnuts either."
Ever since she found out that Zheng Xin hired someone to set a fire to harm Wen Jiu and Chu Zhuru failed to distinguish right from wrong and just kept protecting her and making excuses for her, she became completely disappointed with her sister.
"Come with me. I have something to tell you."
Chu Zhuru was filled with rage, but she had to control her temper and followed Chu Xiuli upstairs obediently.
Old Master Wen noticed something was wrong, so he lowered his head and asked Wen Jiu in a low voice: "A Jiu, what happened to your mother and your aunt?"
"Did they have a quarrel?"
He still doesn't know about that incident. His family members were afraid that he would get upset if he knew, so they kept it a secret from him.
Wen Jiu smiled and said, "It's okay, Grandpa, don't worry so much. How can you not be at ease with my mother's work?"
"Has she made any mistakes in all these years?"
Master Wen shook his head, "No."
His daughter-in-law has always been organized and kind to others since she was young. If there are conflicts, it is always someone else's fault.
"Go and have a look."
"Your aunt is quite fierce, don't let your mother be bullied by her."
These words hit the mark.
She quickly said, "Okay."
After bringing Chu Zhuru back to the room, Chu Xiuli's expression became even colder.
"Speak!"
"What are you doing here?"
Chu Zhuru almost fainted when she heard Chu Xiuli's impolite words. She slowed down for a long time before taking two steps forward and trying to hug Chu Xiuli's arm like she did when she was a child, but Chu Xiuli dodged directly.
Her hand froze in mid-air.
My heart sank to the bottom.
"Sister, we have been sisters for decades, why do you have to be so cold to me?"
Chu Xiuli said bluntly: "I didn't kick you out directly because of our sisterly friendship over the years. What else do you want from me?"
"Happy to meet you?"
"You are dreaming!"
"What did your daughter do? How did you protect her? Have you forgotten? Your daughter is your flesh and blood, but my daughter is not my flesh and blood?"
"Did you ever consider how I, as your older sister, felt at that time?"
"I tell you!"
"Don't try to play the emotional card with me and ask me to help you plead and get Zheng Xin out early. I don't have the qualifications or the ability to do that. I didn't make the country's laws and regulations."
"But my brother-in-law is the commander..." Chu Zhuru was interrupted by Chu Xiuli as soon as she opened her mouth.
"He's the commander, so what?"
"Just because he's the commander, he can abuse his authority?"
"He is the commander and doesn't have to abide by the law?"
"Zheng Xin made such a big mistake that it even reached the legal level, but you still protected her. Have you ever thought that if she is not punished this time, will she be more daring next time?"
"Do you want to destroy her completely?"
When Chu Zhuru heard Chu Xiuli say this, she felt like her tail was stepped on.
"Chu Xiuli!"
"What qualifications do you have to teach me?"
"Xinxin is my biological daughter. How could I, as a mother, harm her?"
"Ajiu is fine, but Xinxin has been in jail for so long. Shouldn't she have received enough punishment?"
"What else do you two want?"
Chu Xiuli was in a very calm mood; she originally thought she would be angry.
"Whatever happens, happens!"
"If you are still going to acknowledge me as your sister, then keep your mouth shut. The old man treats Jiu like the apple of his eye. If he finds out, you can imagine the consequences."
