Chapter 299: A Tool for Obedience

The old master spoke, and the solemn words in his tone made Sheng Xin very puzzled.

She subconsciously clenched the peace charm, looking at the old master who was close at hand, and what words came to her mouth, but it was difficult to speak.

Don't divulge it!

A sentence blocked the doubts in Sheng Xinxin's heart, and looked at him for a while.

"I don't understand what you mean right now, but I'll remember what you told me today. ”

Sheng Xinxin said, bowing slightly at the master.

The old master nodded thoughtfully, looking at Sheng Xinxin's face with a look of relief.

"It's good that you understand that. ”

As he spoke, the old man poured another cup of tea for Sheng Xinxin, put it in front of her and said, "Osmanthus tea is very suitable for you, I will bring you some dried osmanthus later, and soak it in water to drink after you go back, which will help calm your mood." ”

Sheng Xin nodded obediently, picked up the teacup and took a sip, the sweet taste was indeed different from the tea he had touched before.

While the two were still talking, there was a knock on the door, followed by the sound of bodyguards urging.

"Miss, are you in there?"

As soon as he heard the voice of the bodyguard, Sheng Xinxin hurriedly stood up, but when he thought of the elder next to him, he quickly stopped, looked at him and bowed respectfully, "Thank you very much for the guidance of the seniors today, but I should go back now." Hopefully we'll see you again when we get the chance. ”

Seeing that Sheng Xinxin was about to leave, the old master went back to the room and took out a jar of dried osmanthus and handed it to her.

"You take this, I hope we will meet again in the future. ”

Looking at the kind appearance of the old man in front of him, a warm current passed through Sheng Xinxin's heart.

Then he took the dried osmanthus and held it in his hand heavily, which was very weighty.

After saying goodbye to his master, Sheng Xinxin hurriedly went outside to meet the bodyguards.

The anxious bodyguard saw that Sheng Xinxin finally came out, and the expression on his face was also relieved at that moment.

"You're finally out, boss, they've arrived. We are now hurrying over to meet them. ”

Looking at the bodyguard with a solemn face, Sheng Xinxin's heart also tensed up in an instant.

She clenched the dried osmanthus in her hand and asked in a serious tone, "Did something happen?"

The bodyguard looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, looked at Sheng Xinxin and sighed, and then said slowly, "You better go over and talk about it first, some things are not appropriate to come out of my mouth." ”

Hearing the words of the bodyguard, Sheng Xinxin swallowed her throat again, and her solemn expression hid her thoughts.

Before Sheng Xin left, he glanced back at his master's courtyard, only to realize that he had forgotten to ask the other party's name.

But now that she was in a hurry to see her father, the matter was delayed.

The two rushed all the way to the front hall of the temple, and Sheng Xin finally understood why the solemn expression on the bodyguard's face was rising.

At this moment, there are not only my father's people in the hall, but also a group of people from the Su family.

And Su Xiaoyao was kneeling on the ground at this moment, in front of so many people.

Sheng Xinxin's footsteps attracted everyone's attention, and the first to notice her was Sheng Yixing.

When he saw his daughter coming over, the expression on Sheng Yixing's face did not soften, and his eyes flashed with complexity that others couldn't understand.

Sheng Xin tensed his body and walked over, leaned next to his father, and said in a cautious tone, "Father, I'm back." ”

In front of so many people, a soft light flashed on Sheng Yixing's face, and he reached out to caress the top of his daughter's head.

"It's okay. ”

As Sheng Xinxin's words landed, Master Su on the side spoke leisurely, his tone full of sarcasm.

"The soul is really good-looking, no wonder Su Xiaoyao, this kid, wants to risk his life to save her. ”

Master Su's words made Sheng's heart stiffen, and he looked at him but had nothing to refute.

Without Sheng Xinxin opening his own mouth, Sheng Yixing on the side directly protected his daughter behind him, and replied in an indifferent tone.

"What you said is serious, it's just a small fight between children, why do you want to say it desperately. ”

Sheng Yixing said, his eyes swept over Su Xiaoyao meaningfully, only to see him kneeling on the ground with his head lowered, and others couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.

Sheng Yixing's words aroused Su Lao's stronger emotions, and the crutches rattled on the ground, "Su Xiaoyao is injured like this, you actually said that it was a small fight between children." In your opinion, is this really a petty fight?"

Su Lao was also a powerful figure in the business world, and as he spoke, the powerful aura around him instantly spread in the space.

Sheng Xin swallowed his throat with difficulty, took a step forward, and was about to stand up.

Su Xiaoyao, who had been silent on the side, suddenly spoke, "This matter is all my wishful thinking, and it has nothing to do with Sheng Xinxin." I am willing to accept all the punishments. ”

Although Su Xiaoyao was kneeling on the ground at this time, there was unruliness and arrogance hidden in his straight waist.

After losing, he looked at his grandson, and even demolished his platform in public, and he was even more angry.

And in front of so many people, his dignity is the most important thing.

So before everyone could react, he had already strode in front of Su Xiaoyao.

He didn't move quickly, raised the crutches in his hand high, and smashed it directly on Su Xiaoyao's body in full view of everyone.

Although Su Lao is old, the strength in his hands has not diminished at all.

A crutch smashed on Su Xiaoyao's body, causing his already tired and weak body to rush forward directly.

Sheng Xinxin's heart was about to jump out of his throat when he was watching from the side, and he was about to step forward, but his father stopped him and shook his head at her.

This is the family rule of the Su family, and Su Lao is doing this nothing more than to prove his family's status in front of everyone.

If Sheng Xinxin rushed forward at this time, not only would he not be able to help Su Xiaoyao, but he would be punished more severely.

Su Lao was on crutches, Su Xiaoyao propped himself on the ground with one hand, and his complexion, which had just recovered, collapsed in an instant, and his face was extremely pale.

In less than a moment, Su Xiaoyao straightened his waist again, as if nothing had happened, and stood straight in front of his grandfather to accept his second stick.

Su Lao had no room for negotiation when he started, and a stick hit Su Xiaoyao's body heavier than the other.

From his eyes, he couldn't see the affection between his ancestors and grandchildren, as if Su Xiaoyao's existence was just an obedient tool, and once a person was disobedient, he would have to accept punishment.

Everyone present silently paid attention to Su Xiaoyao's punishment, but no one dared to stand up and say a fair word.

Sheng Xin tensed all over, his hands clenched into fists, and tears overflowed from his eyes uncontrollably.

I don't know how long it took, Su Xiaoyao was beaten all over his body, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with scarlet blood.

Sheng Xin didn't dare to make a sound, watching him being beaten, silently shedding tears, but his heart was about to stop in pain.

Sheng Yixing on the side grabbed his daughter's shoulders tightly, for fear that she would be reckless and impulsive.

I don't know how long it took, Su Lao's movements stopped, he didn't whip Su Xiaoyao, but angrily threw the crutches aside.

The housekeeper who was serving him next to him hurriedly stepped forward and supported Su Lao with his arm.

There were so many people from the Su family present throughout the whole process, and no one said a word of justice for Su Xiaoyao, even if he was about to become the master of the Su family.

Su Xiaoyao, who had been beaten to death, propped his hands on the ground, and at the moment he was still struggling to straighten his body, but the trauma behind him made it impossible for him to make simple movements.

Su Lao glanced indifferently in Su Xiaoyao's direction, snorted coldly, and said disdainfully, "Carry him down the mountain, don't be embarrassed here." ”

With Su Lao's words, the bodyguards of the Su family dared to act.

found a stretcher in the temple, carefully moved Su Xiaoyao up, and did not dare to stop for a moment to send him to the hospital under the mountain.

Without Su Xiaoyao's presence, Su Lao spoke even more directly and mercilessly.

His gaze crossed Sheng Yixing and landed nakedly on Sheng Xinxin's body, with a tendentious face, but the tone of his mouth was cold to the bone.

"I know that you are a good child in your heart, since you are a good child, do what you should do at this age, don't learn from some people who are not successful, and absurd your youth in the time you should work hard. ”

The meaning of what Su Lao said couldn't be more obvious, this was the first time that Sheng Xinxin had been said by an elder like this, his ears seemed to be bitten by something, and his brain was blurred.

And at this moment, Sheng Xinjiao didn't know where to get the courage, he stepped forward and bowed to Su Lao, and then said in a calm tone.

"Thank you Grandpa Su for your guidance, I will do what I should do at this age, as for those who are not successful in your mouth, it may only be you who think so. Everyone's life should not be defined, just like your age, in the eyes of outsiders, you should live in peace and wait for death. But aren't you still standing here teaching the juniors with a lofty spirit?"

Sheng Xinxin's words were really a bit rebellious, but her words also said the meaning of Sheng Yixing next to her, a smile flashed on her face, and then she coughed dryly, "The heart is not allowed to talk like this, no matter how you say it, he is also your elder." Apologize to Grandpa Su. ”

Although Sheng Yixing's voice was stern, it was not difficult to hear the indulgence of Sheng Soul in his tone.

Sheng Xinxin also shrugged his shoulders helplessly, with a simple and kind look, and blinked at Su Lao, "At my age, I speak childishly, if you say anything offensive to Grandpa Su, don't take it to heart." ”

If you lose in the end, you are also a person who is used to seeing strong winds and waves, and of course she will not be angered by the words of a little girl liar.

He pretended to be calm and chuckled, stroked his beard in a decent manner, looked at Sheng Xinxin and said sarcastically, "Naturally, I won't care about a little girl like you." If the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, it is not your fault. ”

Su Lao's skills are not something that ordinary people can imitate, and I really can't understand the sarcasm in his tone without a bit of culture.

Sheng Yixing, who was on the side, turned a deaf ear, but touched his daughter's head with a smile on his face, and said in a doting tone, "This girl has a temperament with me, and she won't beat around the bush when she speaks." ”

After speaking, Sheng Yixing didn't give Su Lao a chance to speak again, and nodded symbolically slightly, "This place is very good, suitable for the elderly to live here for a long time." Su Lao, you will visit first, and we will go back first. ”

Su Lao was glared at by Sheng Yixing's last sentence, but it was not good, and if he said anything and the juniors, he could only take this mouthful.

When the people who were staying in Sheng Yixing left the temple, it didn't take long for Su Lao to leave here.

On the way home, there was no outsider present, Sheng Xin threw himself directly into his father's arms, tears streaming out.

"Daddy, I miss you so much, I miss Mommy so much. ”

Sheng Yixing's eyes were distressed, he looked at his daughter heartily, reached out and stroked his little head, and said in a gentle and reassuring tone, "If you have a father in the future, I won't let anyone bully you." ”

The man's tone was full of promise to his daughter, and his deep eyes were full of determination.

Sheng choked up and cried, looked up from Daddy's arms, looked at him, and said, "Where's Mommy? ”

Sheng Yixing patted his daughter's shoulder soothingly, "I was worried that there would be an accident if I continued to stay, so I asked your mother to go back first." Now we're going home too. ”

Hearing that his mother was safe and sound, Sheng Xinxin's heart was also relieved.

After such a chaos, Sheng was already exhausted.

Sheng Yixing, who was on the side, also noticed the dried osmanthus in his daughter's hand, and asked curiously, "Where did this come from?"

When it came to osmanthus, Sheng Xin suddenly realized that he took out the peace charm given by his predecessor from his pocket and handed it to his father.

"This was given to me by a senior in the monastery, and he said that he was friends with you. This peace charm was also specially prepared for me by him. ”

As his daughter's words spoke, Sheng Yixing's face became unusually solemn, and he stared at her with deep eyes and asked, "What else did he tell you?"

Sheng Xinxin told his father everything the elders said, and then looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Is there any problem?"

Sheng Yixing was silent for a moment and then shook his head and handed the peace charm to his daughter, "He is indeed an old man in the shop, and I haven't seen him for many years. Since this peace charm is specially prepared for you by him, then you must carry it with you. ”

Sheng nodded thoughtfully, and then put the peace charm in his pocket.

Thinking of what the elders had said, Sheng was curious to ask his father what was going on, but he remembered his sentence that he couldn't be revealed, so he didn't ask any more.

The journey home was about an hour, and Sheng lay on his father's lap exhausted, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep.

When she woke up, she was already on the bed in her room, and she had changed into clean pajamas.

Smelling the familiar smell of home in the futon, Sheng took a deep breath greedily, and the nerves of the whole person also relaxed.

Just as Sheng Xin was about to get out of bed, there was a noise outside the room, as if Daddy was talking to someone.

Sheng Xin hesitated for a moment, then got out of bed and walked outside.
