Jianshu was slightly frantic. What did "yes, yes, right" mean? Did he believe it or not?
"That's right, aunt, please believe me, it really wasn't me!" It would be fine if he took the blame for other things, Zhao Tianlei had taken a lot of blame for her anyway, but this one was really unacceptable!
How could the little fairy blow up a cesspool?
"Yeah, yeah, it's not you." Meng Ying nodded and responded.
Feeling that she was being perfunctory, Jian Shu was about to explain, but suddenly realized and asked, "No, Auntie, do you know that those things were my ideas?"
"Hmm!" Meng Ying couldn't deny it.
"Then why don't you expose it, but instead treat Brother Lei as the culprit and beat him up?" Jian Shu asked in surprise.
She thought they didn't know.
Meng Ying glanced at her and asked, "Did he do those things?"
Jian Shu didn't understand why, but nodded, "Yes."
"He did it voluntarily. No one forced him, right?"
"Yeah." Zhao Tianlei is a sister-con and does whatever his sister says.
"Did he take the blame on his own initiative?" Meng Ying asked again.
"...Yes." Jian Shu understood what she meant and became a little dispirited.
"In that case, shouldn't he be beaten?" Meng Ying said.
"But, but..." Jianshu wanted to refute.
Meng Ying smiled, "You want to ask why you are okay, right?"
Jianshu nodded.
"Think about it again, is it really okay? Even though you didn't get beaten, every time you got into trouble, weren't all your snacks, treats, and toys cut off?"
Jianshu recalled it and it’s true!
But at that time, because Zhao Tianlei was beaten, she was always around him and didn't pay much attention to these things. She just thought that the snacks at home were all gone and her parents hadn't bought more.
"Has the daily homework become more? Has the time for play become shorter? And..."
With every item Meng Ying mentioned, Jianshu became more discouraged.
Yes, she just didn't get beaten, but she was not unpunished. It's just that these punishments were in other aspects, so subtle and silent that she didn't notice them at all.
Now that I think about it, it might as well have been a beating. One is a long-term pain, the other is a short-term pain, neither is any better.
"Hmph, you guys, you still think we don't know. We all know your little tricks without you having to guess. Just by looking at the roll of your eyes, I know what evil plan you are up to." Meng Ying snorted lightly and spoke with a smile.
Jian Shu quickly smiled ingratiatingly, "We are young and ignorant, so we have no idea how powerful you are. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against us."
"If you want to make a fuss, why wait until today?" Meng Ying reached out and tapped her, saying with a smile.
"Hehe!" Jian Shu scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.
Zhao Yueling, who was lying on the bed pretending to be asleep, couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. She never expected that her elder brother and sister Shu had this side of them.
Jianshu didn't realize at the moment that he had embarrassed himself in front of his sister. If he knew, he would probably crawl into bed and cover himself up immediately.
After drying and combing her hair, Meng Ying patted her back and said, "Okay, go to bed. I'll go turn off the lights."
"Yeah." Jianshu nodded obediently.
Lying on the bed, Zhao Yueling slept on the innermost side, Jianshu slept in the middle, and Meng Ying slept on the outermost side.
The bed was huge, a full 1.8 meters wide, and since the three of us were all very slim, there was more than enough space. Now that the weather was getting warmer, we didn't have to worry about catching a cold at night.
Jianshu lay flat on the bed, feeling the familiar breath on both sides, and had a sense of security that he was surrounded by someone.
It felt like she was back in her childhood, when they were just like this. At night, she and Lingling would get into bed together, whispering, reading comic books by flashlight, and secretly eating candy. After they were discovered, their aunt never let them sleep alone again.
Every time, they wanted to stay up late and play secretly after their aunt fell asleep, but children could not stay up late like adults. Every time, their eyes told their brains that they were just taking a short nap and would wake up soon, but when they really woke up, it was often the next day.
Thinking about it now, those days without memories, although she made some stupid mistakes at times, did bring her many beautiful and colorful memories.
Feeling the tossing and turning beside him, Jian Shu turned sideways and reached out to hug Meng Ying's arm.
Meng Ying was startled and asked in a low voice, "Shushu? Did I wake you up?"
"No, I just can't sleep." Jian Shu shook his head, and then said, thinking that she couldn't see.
"Don't worry, your Uncle Zhao and I are here. No matter what happens in the future, we will always stand behind you and support you. Even if you get married, you will still be the same person as before." Meng Ying patted her back and said softly.
"Well, I'm not afraid as long as you are here. I am still myself and I won't change." Jianshu promised.
As parents, the last thing we want is for our children to change because of marriage.
"Sister Shu, I can't bear to leave you!" At this time, Zhao Yueling suddenly reached out and hugged Jian Shu's waist from behind, buried her face in her back, and said in a muffled voice.
She grew up following Jianshu. There were only two girls in the family, and they were the closest.
Jian Shu held her hand and said, "I can't bear to leave Lingling either, but I will come back to see you. If there is a chance, you can also come to see me."
Zhao Yueling hugged her waist tightly without saying a word, as if she wanted to hug her enough at once.
This night was a sleepless night for everyone. On the other side, apart from Zhao Tianrui, who fell asleep early, the other two fathers and sons also tossed and turned, sighing.
The more I thought about it, the more unhappy I became, and I couldn't help but complain about it to the people around me.
You curse and I curse, and the more we talk, the angrier we get.
Sharing a common hatred for the enemy, the two men instantly upgraded their relationship from father and son to brothers, and they wanted to become sworn brothers on the spot.
In the end, the noise they made was so loud that they woke Zhao Tianrui up.
Zhao Tianrui, who was sleepy and dazed, was forced to join the team, sitting on the bed and nodding his head.
What a poor kid, but no one here cares to feel sorry for him.
Until late at night and everyone was asleep, there were still rustling sounds in the courtyard, which continued all night long.
On the other hand, the Gu family was in high spirits.
Throughout the day, the smiles on Gu Zhan and Gu Mingjing's faces never faded, which made Gu Mingyuan, who had just returned, look very amused.
After settling the relatives and friends who had just arrived in Beijing, the family washed up and went to bed early.
You have to conserve your energy so that you can face everything with the best attitude tomorrow.
