The moment they saw Mr. Jiang, the younger generations all sat up straight in silence.
"grandfather."
Mr. Jiang nodded and walked over to sit down.
His eyes first swept over Jiang Su and Lu Xuexi.
He had watched Xuexi grow up, and although she had always behaved well at home, he had always known that there was something wrong with her.
But since they are not family, he is too lazy to care.
He also did not ask about the "breakup" between Jiang Su and Xue Xi, but seeing that Jiang Su started to get close to Xu Xu, he was very happy about it.
Mr. Jiang then looked at the two brothers Jiang Han and Jiang Huai, and finally at Jiang Xuxu's face, and then he spoke casually,
"Just now Asu said that it was unnecessary to help those people. What do you think, after Grandpa warned those people, why did he send bodyguards to protect them and prevent those children from getting into trouble?"
"Because grandpa is kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see those children get hurt."
Lu Xuexi has always been very good at acting nice in front of her elders, so she was naturally the first to speak at this moment.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Jiang just frowned and said nothing, then turned to look at the other children.
Although Jiang Han didn't know why his grandfather suddenly asked this, he still answered according to Lu Xuexi's words and added,
"These people's families are all well-known figures in Hai City, and many of them are on good terms with our family. Even if the Gu family doesn't have a good relationship with our family, we certainly can't just sit back and watch when we know their children are in danger."
The old man nodded slightly after listening to Jiang Han's words, and then looked at Jiang Huai again. However, his gaze only paused for a moment, and when he met his smiling eyebrows, he automatically glanced away and turned to look at Jiang Xuxu.
"Xu Xu, what do you think?"
Jiang Xuxu narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and then spoke in a calm voice,
“Because of human nature.”
"Oh?" Mr. Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "Tell me about it."
Jiang Xuxu said,
"Grandpa reminded the other party today. If the other party accepts Grandpa's reminder and escapes the disaster, he may express gratitude afterwards.
But if the other party does not accept grandpa's reminder and something happens, they will not blame themselves for not listening to other people's warnings, but will only blame us for not trying our best to stop him.
That’s human nature.”
As soon as Jiang Xuxu said this, the hall seemed to fall into silence.
Old Master Jiang's eyes were heavy, and there was not much expression on his face. Jiang Huai did not speak, but there was a bit of complexity in his peach blossom eyes when he looked at Jiang Xuxu.
Jiang Su and Jiang Han also had an indescribable feeling.
Still, Lu Xuexi couldn't help but speak.
"Xu Xu, why do you think so?"
There was some disapproval in her tone, but also some sympathy.
"Maybe the people you interacted with in the past were not very nice, which made you think that human nature is selfish, but the parents in the kindergarten are not what you think. They are all well-mannered and reasonable, and they are definitely not what you think."
She seemed to be expressing the one-sidedness of Jiang Xuxu's words, but her words seemed to be hinting at and reminding the people around her that Jiang Xuxu's heart was too dark.
Jiang Xuxu just glanced at her coldly when he heard this, "The idea is too pure and kind, we usually call it a saint."
"Pfft!" Jiang Su couldn't help but burst out laughing, then quickly covered his mouth in a fake manner and raised his eyebrows at Lu Xuexi.
"I'm not making fun of you, I just think the word virgin is a good one."
Lu Xuexi's face turned red with shame. If it weren't for Old Master Jiang being here, she would have just turned around and ran away.
Jiang Han, who was standing by, couldn't bear to see Jiang Su and Jiang Xuxu bullying Xue Xi like that, so he immediately warned them with his eyes.
He didn't even bother to read Jiang Xuxu's warning.
He added,
"We in the Dao sect believe in cause and effect, and even if you have the ability to see fate, you should not interfere with other people's fate easily. Once you interfere, you must be responsible to the end."
Mr. Jiang looked at her, with a hint of relief in his eyes.
"Xu Xu is right. Since you have chosen to do it, you must make sure that you don't give others any reason to attack you. Otherwise, it is better not to do it from the beginning."
As he spoke, his eyes slowly scanned the children in the hall, "You must learn to look at and think about these things on your own in the future."
Jiang Su seemed to be lost in thought, but Jiang Xuxu's words undoubtedly seemed to have opened up a new world for him.
Human nature, that was something he had never thought about.
After that day's chat, everyone thought that the matter was over.
But unexpectedly, Gu Jinrong came again the next day, and this time his expression was obviously a little ugly.
"After I brought the amulet to my daughter yesterday, she was fine at first, but at night, she suddenly started yelling and screaming, like she was crazy, biting and kicking the family members. She became... not like my daughter at all!"
Gu Jinrong's eyes turned slightly red as he spoke, staring at Jiang Xuxu intently. He then threw a blood-red talisman in front of Jiang Xuxu.
“I thought you were really capable, but it turns out you’re just a crooked person!
Tell me honestly, what exactly is this talisman you gave my daughter?
Why did my daughter suddenly go crazy after wearing that amulet?
If you don't give me an explanation, the Gu family and the Jiang family will be irreconcilable from today onwards!"
Jiang Xuxu frowned slightly when she heard his words. Before she could speak, Yao Lin, who had heard the news, changed her expression when she heard Gu Jinrong's words and asked Jiang Xuxu,
"Xu Xu, what on earth is going on? How could you deliberately hurt someone? If my brother and dad knew..."
Before she could finish, Jiang Su jumped out and interrupted Yao Lin.
"Second Aunt?! What do you mean my sister intentionally hurts people?! You're just listening to his nonsense before the whole thing is clear!"
As he said this, he turned his head and angrily said to Gu Jinrong,
"You said my sister harmed your daughter! That's nonsense! You were so polite when you asked my sister for help yesterday, but now you're putting the blame on my sister when something goes wrong today?!
You just picked up such a strange talisman and said it was my sister's problem. I think you are deliberately making trouble!"
Jiang Su was so angry that he almost died. At this moment, he finally understood what Jiang Xuxu meant by human nature yesterday.
You are clearly helping others, but when something goes wrong, you are the first one to cause trouble!
What's the point of talking about high quality and reason? Lu Xuexi should come over and get slapped in the face.
Gu Jinrong's face became even uglier after being scolded by Jiang Su, but compared to all that, he was more worried about his daughter's situation.
Of course, he didn't think Jiang Xuxu would dare to do such a thing, but the way his daughter looked... he wouldn't believe it even if she said it had nothing to do with the mysterious art.
Compared to Jiang Su's anger, Jiang Xuxu seemed much calmer. When Gu Jinrong threw out the talisman, she had already carefully examined the talisman paper and finally spoke at this time.
"This is indeed the amulet I gave you."
Jiang Xuxu finished speaking, and before Gu Jinrong could speak, he added in a cold voice,
"But this talisman has obviously been tampered with."
