Chapter 123: Xunzi



"You're so old, are you embarrassed to worry about your four-year-old cousin?" A group of elders finally calmed down the dispute between the juniors, and after they dispersed, Wei Changying and Shen Zangfeng called their two sons to come and continue the lecture.

The first to bear the brunt is naturally Shen Shuguang.

Shen Shuxie's stubbornness is that people who know him are used to it, and he is the second son, so it is nothing inferior at all. But Shen Shuguang, the eldest son who has high hopes and is carefully cultivated by the family, any flaws will be valued by the elders and try their best to correct them!

At this moment, Wei Changying said to him bitterly: "How old is your cousin?" Hit Xie'er, what's wrong? It is said that Xie Er went to provoke Chi Yu first, otherwise, why did Fei Yu do something to him? You are now half an adult, you feel sorry for your brother, just comfort him in private, not only scolding your cousin in public, but even your Aunt Song has arranged it! You said this thing is going to get out, who doesn't laugh at your strength! ”

Shen Shuguang's face was tame, and he bowed his head and pleaded guilty: "What the mother taught me is that the child knows that he is wrong!" ”

"......" He was so well-behaved, Wei Changying had nothing to say, choked and looked at Shen Zangfeng.

Shen Zangfeng stroked his short hair and thought about it, then said, "Since this is the case, then you can think about what kind of punishment you want to receive." ”

Then he said to Shen Shuxie, the second son who was spinning around with his eyes at the bottom, "As for you, what punishment does your brother receive, you receive double!" ”

“…… Be. Compared with Shen Shuguang's tame, Shen Shuxie almost wrote the word "unwilling" on his face, but he also knew that his brother was punished for himself this time, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything unfair, and said listlessly.

Waiting for Shen Zangfeng to send his two sons to retreat, Wei Changying said, "It's just such an understatement? ”

"It's not a big deal." Shen Zangfeng smiled lightly and said, "There are some conflicts between children, maybe they will be fine tomorrow?" Do you want to make a big fight, but you will see Cousin Su and them. ”

"I'm not talking about that." Wei Changying frowned, grabbed his arm, and said, "This time it's not a big deal, Feiyu is still young-Xie'er hit her, and she didn't care, Guang'er gave him a head like this, and even Cousin Song was ridiculed by him for not being strict with his goddaughter - it's not surprising that Xie'er did this kind of thing that doesn't care about face and is not decent." But Guang'er was taught by your words and deeds with your second brother, how could you make such a mistake? ”

Shen Zangfeng smiled and stroked the back of her hand, and said, "The young man can't hold his breath, and it's nothing...... Children, you have to teach slowly, do you still expect them to be saints and sages who don't make mistakes? ”

Wei Changying was very dissatisfied with his perfunctory attitude, his face was angry, and he wanted to say something, but he bit his lip and sighed: In fact, both husband and wife noticed that Shen Shuguang's reaction was wrong today, and this is really not something that the eldest son of the Xiliang Shen family, who is highly valued, can do.

To say why Shen Shuguang reacted so fiercely to the beating of his four-year-old cousin for his younger brother, it is impossible for the husband and wife not to think about the fact that when they went to Diecui Pass, Shen Shuguang ordered the assassination of his cousin Shen Shuming in public in order to protect his younger brother.

It was a few years ago that the imperial capital fell, and a more brilliant Dingwang Mansion was built on the original site of the Taifu Mansion that year. Although the traces of Bing Xie can still be detected from subtle points, people always forget them quickly.

But what about heartache?

Wei Changying didn't know that the eldest son defended his younger brother like this, did the two brothers experience that breakthrough together, and they were safe and sound, and the younger brother was buried alive several times? Or maybe he thinks more complicated.

If it is said that the breakthrough after the fall of the imperial capital was the first wound in Shen Shuguang's heart, then the incident of Diecuiguan later is afraid that it is another wound - maybe this second time also aggravated the previous injury.

However, even if Old Madam Song didn't remind her, Wei Changying also knew that Shen Zangfeng almost really sent Shen Shuxie to Beirong to exchange for Shen Shuguang, and it was in the past, so it was best not to mention it again.

Especially so far, Shen Shuxie doesn't know - it's better to never let him know.

So Wei Changying saw that her husband was talking about other things, even though she wanted to discuss it with him, she still chose to keep her mouth shut.

But what if you go to Shen Shuguang in private to ask?

Wei Changying felt that he was not very sure, and Shen Shuguang, who had been carefully taught by Shen Jishi and Shen Zangfeng, although he was still young, had learned to hide his thoughts.

This can be seen from the speed and attitude of his mistake just now, he clearly didn't want to say it, so he followed his mother's reprimand - he didn't care what his mother said, he didn't care about punishment, he just wanted to get out quickly.

When the child is older, it is difficult to control. Wei Changying sighed in her heart, fortunately, Su Yuwu and his party had just arrived, and they had to visit Wei Huan and Wei Xinyong before they could set off.

Taking advantage of this situation, Wei Changying begged Mrs. Song again: "Grandmother, you said, what should Guang'er do like this?" ”

Mrs. Song was very happy to be able to instruct her granddaughter, and after listening to what happened, she smiled and asked, "What did Feng'er say?" ”

"He didn't want to tell me more." Wei Changying was in front of her grandmother, as if she had returned to the time when she had not yet left the pavilion, and the little girl pouted angrily and dissatisfied, before she said, "After all, Guang'er is so wrong to return to this place, and it is in Diecuiguan." That time involved Xie'er's life and death, and I didn't think much about it. This time, for Fei Yu's fight, he ...... I realized something was wrong. ”

Old Madam Song smiled and said, "Look, doesn't Feng'er already know what to do?" Just go with the flow! ”

Wei Changying was surprised: "Let it be? Ke Guang'er ......"

"Guang'er's usual behavior and treatment of people, is there a problem?" Old Madam Song asked.

"No, but ......"

"Isn't that the end of it?" Old Madam Song smiled and said, "This kid has already made you feel very relieved, what else do you want?" To err is human? You can't just because Guang'er usually doesn't tell you to worry about it, and once something goes wrong, you just hold on to it, right? ”

Wei Changying said: "Either hold on tightly, or worry about him......"

"Worried about what?" Old Madam Song said, "Guang'er is so smart, don't you just understand if you mention it?" This child was cultivated by the Shen family as the future valve owner, Feng'er, the current valve owner, is not worried, what are you anxious about? ”

Seeing that her granddaughter was still very depressed, Mrs. Song scolded with a smile, "Do you think you were good when you were a child?" Let me tell you, it will be slow to talk about your mother, even your grandfather, when no one is in private, will complain to me, saying that you are used to being a female red, dedicated to practicing martial arts, and turning back to marry the Shen family, you don't have to end up with a laughing stock! But don't you look good now? Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, Guang'er is now this big, you can no longer be like when he was a child, staring everywhere and all the time, you have to ask him not to make any mistakes - when the child grows up, he should grow up by himself, otherwise you will not help him but harm him! ”

Wei Changying sighed: "I always feel that the two children suffered a lot back then......"

"Since a person is still alive and has all four limbs, it can't be regarded as suffering, it must be regarded as grinding." Old Madam Song said indifferently, "Have you forgotten how far you were forced by Wei Changxu before you left the cabinet?" Do you still have a grudge against that side now? People always have to grow up, and what seemed like a great event at the time, but when you look at it later, it's nothing! ”

"That's what you said." Wei Changying couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he was reminded of his example, and couldn't help but snuggle up a little more in his grandmother's arms, "Alas, what did you do to marry me far away?" I went back to the imperial capital this time, and I don't know when I will come to see you next time! ”

Old Madam Song touched her sideburns and said with a smile: "I can see you again this time, my grandmother's wish in this life has been fulfilled!" I could have come out of the cabinet for you, and I will never see you again! It's better not to be too greedy, people who are not greedy can live happily! ”

"Where? Not only will I come to see my grandmother, but when the DPRK is settled, I will come back to see you! Wei Changying was tired of her arms and coquettishly said, "Greedy...... I can't change this, I wish I could hold my grandmother like this every day! My grandmother gave me advice on everything! ”

"You go back to the imperial capital this time, I have an envoy to hand it over to you." The old lady Song smiled and hugged her, the ancestor and grandson snuggled for a while, and the old lady said suddenly.

Wei Changying hurriedly raised his head and said, "Grandmother commanded, then it must be done for you...... What is it? ”

"Changfeng is young, and it's not good to be widowed all the time, Xiu'er is still young, and she also needs her mother's care." Old Madam Song said, "I asked if the Song family and the Su family have no very suitable people, you can go to the imperial capital and visit other people's homes." ”

Said solemnly, "As long as it is a scholar clan, the lintel and bloodline are not outrageously bad, then it is nothing, the most important thing is to be kind-hearted!" You know that Xiu'er is Changfeng's eldest son, and this child is also smart and clever, your grandfather, your father, and Changfeng all want him to take over Ruiyu Hall. Therefore, his stepmother is willing to pick one more, and he must not let Changfeng mistakenly marry such a vicious person who looks good and evil! ”

Wei Changying said solemnly: "Grandmother, don't worry, I just married into the imperial capital, and I have seen the steproom of the late sister-in-law's mother's family named Zhang Shaoguang, who is the merciful and ruthless master!" How can you not guard against such people? ”

"Alas! The Zhang family ......" Old Madam Song's eyes were misty for a moment, she shook her head but did not continue, and passed by before saying, "Anyway, you should have more snacks." ”

Wei Changying thought for a while before remembering that her little aunt, named Wei Shengshi, was said to be the Zhang family of Gyeonggi - but her husband had been an official in the southwest, so he was not implicated when the imperial capital fell, but later the people in the southwest changed and gave them a family......

She quickly diverted the topic: "By the way, I heard that Uncle Wei's brother-in-law came to visit Uncle Wei two days ago?" ”

Old Madam Song said: "Yes, then Wei Qingshen also came with his children, and he also planned to leave a pair of children to serve. ”

Wei Changying originally asked casually, but was surprised when she heard this: "What does this mean?!" Uncle Wei Liu is passing through to Ruiyu Hall. ”
