All three children were very kind, although Qian Chunhua had planned to keep this one.
However, Qian Chunhua also planned to let the three of them know the dangers of the road. She didn't want them to grow up in a greenhouse and become naive people when they grow up.
At the dinner table, the three little ones were actively taking care of the little boy.
However, the little girl seemed like a frightened bird. She did not respond enthusiastically to everyone's enthusiasm and just ate the food in the bowl silently.
Others may not have noticed this, but Qian Chunhua saw it.
Although this little girl was a beggar, her manners when eating were elegant and leisurely, which was completely different from that of ordinary beggars.
I'm afraid this child has an extraordinary background.
After dinner, Qian Chunhua led the three children back to the backyard, where Qian's mother was busy clearing the table.
The little girl sat alone at the dining table, staring at Qian's mother nervously.
Back in the study, Qian Chunhua sat down and the three children stood politely in front of their mother.
Every time this happened, the three of them knew that their mother was about to start educating them.
Before her mother spoke, Qingfeng couldn't help but ask, "Mom, don't you want to keep your sister?"
Although Qingsong and Xiaoling did not ask directly, there was a hint of doubt in their eyes.
Qian Chunhua did not respond directly to Qingfeng's question, but asked in return: "You three, do you remember what kind of life we lived before we separated?"
Her question sent the three children into a state of memory.
Those memories were not pleasant, and were particularly painful for Qingsong.
"Remember..." the three of them whispered in unison.
Qian Chunhua then asked: "If our family still lives like that, are you still willing to keep your little sister?"
Qingfeng was silent, obviously hesitant.
Xiao Ling hesitated for a moment, then shook her head gently.
Qingsong seemed to understand his mother's meaning and shook his head repeatedly.
Qian Chunhua did not give up because of their answer. She continued: "Do you remember the story of Dongguo Xianbei and the wolf that I told you?"
This time the three children nodded.
Qingfeng asked tentatively: "Mom, are you afraid that we are saving bad people?"
Qian Chunhua did not answer directly, but said: "Mother is afraid that you are too kind and do things beyond your ability.
In the end, not only will you not be able to help others, but you may also bring greater disaster to yourself and your family."
After hearing this, the three children fell into deep thought.
Qingsong recalled the time when he and his uncle rescued Uncle Tai and Master without permission, which brought disaster to the village.
This time...
My mother is right. Before I have strong abilities, I cannot do things beyond my capabilities. The teacher in the academy also said this.
Qingsong spoke up, his tone steady: "Mother, I understand. The Master said, if you are poor, you should take care of yourself, and if you are rich, you should help the world."
Although Xiao Ling didn't quite understand, she nodded as well.
Aomine looked at his brother and sister and nodded in imitation of them even though he probably didn't fully understand.
Qian Chunhua continued, "The road is tough now. There are many beggars even in the city, and there are countless refugees outside the city. We want to help, but our ability is limited. How can we help everyone?"
The three little ones stood quietly, listening attentively to their mother's teachings.
“Helping the weak and settling refugees is the duty of the government and the emperor.
And we should always put the safety of ourselves and our families first, and then do what we can."
She paused and emphasized again: "Remember, it's something we can do."
The three little ones nodded silently.
Finally, Qian Chunhua's tone softened: "Of course, taking in this little sister is exactly what we can do right now."
…
The three little ones looked at each other in bewilderment. The sudden surprise caught them off guard...
