The dog has to be beaten and coaxed, and as long as it has established its authority in its mind, it will be both loyal and obedient. It's not the case with cats, this thing doesn't understand human nature, it's wild, it wants it to listen to you, it doesn't work, it will only beat it scared and run away, and in the end what should it do, it keeps causing you trouble. You have to follow the hair, and if you smooth it, it will be obedient and obedient. Xia Ruibei is the cat who can't be well-behaved (you can see from the violence she reacted when Master Xia and Mrs. Xia beat her), and she has to keep a distance from her while fighting wits with her.

Seeing that Xia Ruixi was silent and did not speak, Master Xia comforted: "Maybe you think I'm too biased with her, but as a father, I always want every child to be good." Don't think that Daddy blames you, you're just an ignorant little girl, it's good to be able to do this. But Daddy wants you to do better, we are a family, we are a whole, some parts are bad, some parts are hindered, you can't just cut him off because of this, it won't be complete. For example, if one of your hands is broken, are you going to cut it off right away, or are you going to find a way to heal it? Anyway, break the bones and connect the tendons, understand? For example, when your uncle was so selfish, didn't I bother with him? ”

In Master Xia's opinion, Xia Ruibei is far from the point where necrosis needs to be removed, and as long as it is possible, he will do everything he can to save her.

But from Xia Ruixi's point of view, Master Xia's requirements for her are indeed higher, and Master Xia can treat Uncle Xia so carelessly, that is because he still has brotherhood for Uncle Xia in his heart, which is different from her and Xia Ruibei's situation. After all, she is just an alien soul, and there is a long process of integrating into this family, and the feelings also need to be slowly accumulated and gradually deepened. In this process, in addition to the need for survival, she can only be good to others if others are good to her. Xia Ruibei treated her like this, how could she be selfless and good to Xia Ruibei?

At most, she will improve the way she gets along with Xia Ruibei, and ask her to really treat Xia Ruibei as a sister, which is mutual, not something that can be done by anyone alone. It would be good if she didn't have to worry about Xia Ruibei, and did her best to plan for Xia Ruibei and cover up the ugly things.

Xia Ruixi thought about it, and his face couldn't help but show disapproval. When Master Xia saw it, he shook his head worriedly, and no longer persuaded him, so he changed the topic: "By the way, I talked to Qing Jin last night, and he asked me to bring Ah Ke's apology for him." ”

"I met him last night, and he already told me."

"That's good. When you eat tomorrow morning, take the initiative to say hello to him. Anyway, sooner or later, you will be a member of his family, and it doesn't hurt to listen to your father and have a good relationship with him. ”

What Master Xia said was right, but Xia Ruixi was reluctant in his heart, and said sullenly: "Got it." "Why did she take the initiative? While he saved her life, she also saved his. He helped her family a lot, but didn't he say it himself, was it for Ah Ke?

But she couldn't escape after all, and when she was eating on the second day, under the threatening gaze of Master Xia, she had to stiffen her head and pull the corners of her mouth at Ou Qingjin, and Ou Qingjin smiled back to her in a friendly manner. Xia Ruixi found that Wan'er was stunned again, so angry that she pinched Wan'er hard, and thought angrily: "This dead girl, resolutely don't let her go to the Ou family with her." ”

Xia Ruibei sat beside Xia Ruixi unusually, and asked in a low voice while no one was paying attention, "How is it?" Did you tell your father? Now she no longer affectionately calls Master Xia Daddy, only Father. Seeing Xia Ruixi shaking her head, she smiled coldly: "I'm going to enter Xijing City tomorrow, you can do it yourself." By the way, Chun'er cried all night last night, you remember to comfort and comfort her. ”

Xia Ruixi endured not looking at Chun'er, and said lightly: "I'll talk to my father." Just wait to hear the good news. ”

Xia Ruibei stood up: "I'm sure you will be able to convince my father." ”

Ah Ke saw Xia Ruibei coming, and deliberately stepped forward to meet her head-on, and the two walked by in a staggered manner, Xia Ruibei didn't even look at him, and got into the carriage with light steps. Ah Ke stood in place at a loss, the tip of his nose was still lingering with the faint fragrance of Xia Ruibei's body, his heart seemed to be missing a corner, empty, he knew that he had missed the most important thing.

This was the last night of the trip, because of the hot climate, Xia Ruixi ate very little dinner, retired early, ordered Wan'er to move a stool, took a fan and sat under the porch to enjoy the coolness.

"Wan'er, do you think I'm bad for Miss Three? Not tolerant enough? "Since Master Xia has seen it, will other people feel the same way?

Wan'er muttered: "It's not that it's not tolerant enough, but it's ...... Alas, how to say it? The slave said no. ”

"If I tell you to say it, you can say it. Say whatever you want. ”

Wan'er said nervously: "Well, the slave thinks that you usually ignore the third lady. Although she is not very good-tempered, the eldest lady is much more patient with her than you are with her. For example, if the third lady does something wrong, whether it is a big mistake or a small mistake, as long as the eldest lady knows, she will not scold her, take care of her, even if the third miss is not satisfied, the eldest lady will still take care of it. And you, unless the third lady provokes you, you will say two words to her, and at other times, ignore her. ”

Wan'er has always felt that the second miss is close to the other masters in the family, but she is only indifferent to the third miss from beginning to end, and even annoying, which is far less close to the girls around her. Even though the third lady is not likable, as a sister, she is still a little bit of that.

So she behaved so obviously? Xia Ruixi smiled bitterly, no wonder Master Xia was not satisfied with her. She thought she was tactful enough, but Master Xia still saw sharply that in her mind, Chun'er was far more important than Xia Ruibei, and when she tied up Xia Ruibei, Master Xia would naturally think that she hated Xia Ruibei.

"Miss, the fourth young man is here." Wan'er was a little happy, and without waiting for Xia Ruixi's instructions, she took the initiative to pour tea for Ou Qingjin.

Ou Qingjin automatically sat down a few steps away from Xia Ruixi and began to talk to her.

Xia Ruixi felt that he had something to say to him, so he said: "Fourth Brother Ou has something to say, just say it directly, you don't have to go around the corner." ”

Ou Qingjin smiled lightly: "Actually, I just want to say sorry to you." ”

"Didn't you say that last night? I'm not that stingy, I'm not angry anymore. Although I think you probably see me the same way as Ah Ke, but it doesn't matter, just talk about it. Xia Ruixi's mouth sounded good, but it sounded indignant.

Ou Qingjin lowered his eyes: "You misunderstood." I didn't mean that. ”

Xia Ruixi didn't say anything, whether that meant it or not, everyone understood it in their hearts.

Wan'er saw that the two of them stiffened again, and boldly interjected: "Miss, the slave said that you misunderstood, Si Shao didn't show you a face, it was Young Master Qike." ”

Xia Ruixi scolded: "Talkative, retreat!" ”

Ou Qingjin was dumbfounded, and instantly understood: "Wan'er is right, I didn't show you a look, and I have never seen you as you think." The matter of the third sister, if it were me, I would not have thought of a better way to deal with it. I'll talk to you two days later, but you ignore me. I don't even know where I offended you, that's why I ...... I heard Uncle Shi say it last night, and I realized that everyone had misunderstood. ”

It turned out that it was the man's self-esteem that was at fault, and the brain structure of men and women was really different, knowing that he didn't see himself like Ah Ke, Xia Ruixi felt a little more comfortable. Ou Qingjin saw that her face was soothed, so he glanced at Wan'er: "I still have something to say to you." ”

Wan'er understood, and immediately retreated, looking at the two from a distance, but she couldn't help but prick up her ears to know what they were saying.

"I regret letting Mu Fei tell you about the third sister and Zhao Mingtao. I think that incident may have affected your sisterhood. Ou Qing saw Xia Ruixi raising his eyebrows and looking at him in surprise, and he smiled awkwardly: "At that time, I was a little angry at what she did, but then I thought about it, she saved you, and she was not bad." Moreover, she may not really want to hurt you in the first place, but she may not have been deceived. ”

Xia Ruixi understood as soon as he heard it, and pulled the corners of his mouth: "My father asked you to tell me this?" It seems that the bad relationship between her and Xia Ruibei has become a problem for Master Xia. Xia Ruibei will not give in, Master Xia will only force her to give in. He told her in the morning that he was not at ease, and in the evening he had to ask Ou Qingjin to come and tell her that Xia Ruixi felt a little uncomfortable, why did she have to give in? Because in his eyes, she is more sensible, more obedient, and more able to suffer. Being a person is the same as being a child, if you are better spoken and soft-hearted than others, then you are the one who is destined to suffer more.

Ou Qingjin smiled: "He is also a father's heart." Then he added: "Actually, someone else asked me to tell you, hopefully, I hope you can handle the relationship between sisters." He said as he carefully observed Xia Ruixi's face.

"Who? You care about me. "Who the hell is so nosy? Xia Ruixi held back the anger in his heart and tried his best to smile. Why did everyone talk about her? Do you want her to go to Xia Ruibei?

"Well, well, it's my dad." Ou Qingjin was a little uncomfortable, and said awkwardly: "He also said that if you can do this, he will be more satisfied with you." Seeing that Xia Ruixi could still smile, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Ou Er always told him that Xia Ruixi's temperament is not very gentle, and he has to be pressed. But Xia Ruixi's temperament is a bit violent, he already knew it, who doesn't have a temper? As long as she is not insidious and reasonable, he can accept it.

It turned out to be the second master Ou who was stingy, ate the Xia family along the way, lived in the Xia family, and was reluctant to spend a penny of his own family, and before she entered his Ou family, he began to care about her, what if he was dissatisfied with her? It's not that she has to marry into the Ou family. Thinking about it, doing it, and making it public in the future, it is natural to follow it.

Xia Ruixi just wanted to smile smoothly and say yes, but when he looked at Ou Qing's inquiring gaze, he suddenly took it to heart, so he put away his smile, pursed his lips, lowered his face, and said sullenly: "But this matter is obviously not my fault, why does everyone come to me?" "He's observing, studying, and testing her, and she's going to have to test where his bottom line is.
