Chapter 13 Can’t we just complain to each other?

Mrs. Xie sent Xie Yuan out, and she and Father Xie sat opposite each other in the room.

"What's wrong?" Xie's father saw that her face was very sad and asked as he sat down, feeling a little nervous.

Mrs. Xie hesitated for a while and then said:

"I don't know where to start."

"About what?" Father Xie asked in a consultative tone, which was very gentle and soothed Mrs. Xie's anxious heart.

She calmed down her thoughts again and said:

"It's about the two children A Yuan and Liu Zhen." She paused, lowered her eyes and said in thought,

"Ayuan is our own child. We have raised her so much that we all know her temper. Although she is naughty and often can't sit still and causes trouble, she is good-hearted and can listen to everything we teach her. If she does something wrong,

I dare to admit things and never lie..."

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes to observe Father Xie's expression.

Seeing that Xie's father was listening to her attentively, but a little confused, he asked:

"Um, yeah, what's wrong?"

"What do you think of Liu Zhen's temperament?" Mrs. Xie asked.

Father Xie smiled at first and said: "Liu Zhen is a good student. He can sit still and has a good memory. He has quick thinking at a young age and often has amazing words. This student has gained a lot."

"What about his character?" Mrs. Xie asked immediately.

Father Xie was a little surprised, but then he thought about it carefully and said, "...I don't think there's anything bad about it."

When Mrs. Xie heard this, her expression became even more sad and said: "Qi Lang, Xie Yuan just came back and told me that Liu Zhen was beaten by Captain Shen again, and the beating was not light. It was because A Yuan dumped Mo Mo last time.

.”

Father Xie's eyes widened, first in disbelief, then angry, and asked in a loud voice:

"A Yuan went to complain to Brother Shen?... Is this a character issue due to Liu Zhen? Isn't this a problem with our A Yuan?! He was not convinced after being punished and complained behind his back!"

"Listen to me..." Mrs. Xie recounted what Xie Yuan told her and told Father Xie again.

Father Xie remained silent after listening, not knowing what he was thinking.

Mrs. Xie sighed and said: "Actually... I also wonder why the child Lai Liuzhen has such a temperament.

He lost his mother a long time ago. Although Colonel Shen always took him everywhere, he was mostly away from home.

The master of the house is just a little kid. If he meets a bad servant, he will only be bullied.

That day I heard him say that just the mother-in-law who took care of him had changed seven or eight times, and I felt bad at that time."

Mrs. Xie lowered her head and leaned towards Father Xie, and said heartbrokenly:

"Think about it, he is only six years old this year. Excluding the first few years when the wet nurse took care of him, how many things must have happened to make him change so frequently?"

Father Xie listened carefully, looking like he was thinking.

Mrs. Xie sighed repeatedly and said: "His father, Captain Shen, is also very arrogant in educating his children. He beats him whenever he doesn't like what he wants. He must have been wronged and doesn't even have a place to complain."

As she spoke, she shed tears as she felt the same.

Father Xie reached out and grabbed Mrs. Xie's hand, caressed her gently, calmed her down, and sighed:

"I just think that he is more obedient and less worried than our A Yuan, and he is smarter. I have never thought about this in detail. Madam is still more meticulous..."

Mrs. Xie asked him: "...What are you going to do? His mind is so heavy. If he doesn't put in some effort to teach him, if he goes astray in the future, I'm afraid you don't even know why...

What's more, he is very smart and may do great things in the future. If he has a bad character, wouldn't it be even more harmful?"

Father Xie's pupils shrank and he said: "Madam reminded me. It's also my fault. They were arguing together. I only thought that A Yuan needed to be restrained, but I forgot that Liu Zhen's temper also needed to be taught. But..."

Father Xie touched his forehead with his fingers in distress and asked, "But how should I teach him?"

After hearing his question, Mrs. Xie's eyebrows drooped sadly, she gently shook his hand and muttered:

"My good husband, if I knew this, why would I ask you?"

The air is quiet.

The Xie family couple looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and didn't say anything for a long time.

…

…

The Xie family discussed it for a long time, and the final decision was just to let Shen Liuzhen come to their house for dinner.

They told Xie Yuan that as long as Shen's father was not at home, Shen Liuzhen would come and have dinner with them.

If he doesn't want to come, force him to come.

Of course, it's probably impossible for Shen Liuzhen not to want to come. He is a good person and knows clearly what is good and what is not.

"Liu Zhen, are the injuries on your body feeling better?" Mrs. Xie asked with concern at the dinner table.

Shen Liuzhen pursed his lips and smiled, with two obvious dimples on his cheeks. He said obediently: "Thank you, Master, for your concern. I've been used to it since I was a child. It'll be fine."

Sure enough, after hearing this, Mrs. Xie felt uncomfortable again. She turned to look at her daughter Xie Yuan.

Although the Xie family has strict upbringing, Xie Yuan's lively and direct spirit is inseparable from the fact that the couple has always loved her.

In comparison, Shen Liuzhen's deliberately well-behaved and premature behavior makes people feel distressed.

Mrs. Xie put a vegetable into his rice bowl and said:

"Liu Zhen, A Yuan is naughty and always gets into trouble. Just keep an eye on her and if you see anything wrong, stop her. If you can't stop her, just tell us directly so that we can control her to avoid her. I will cause even greater trouble in the future..."

Xie Yuan was cooking rice. When he heard this, his heart began to feel sour. He looked at his mother pitifully with a pair of pink and phoenix eyes and said nothing.

But Mrs. Xie pretended not to see it, and turned to her and said: "You are the same, do you know what mutual supervision means? If Liu Zhen does something wrong in the future, you have to stop it. If you can't stop it, you have to stop it." Tell the adults."

After Xie Yuan heard this, he felt much better and became happy again.

Shen Liuzhen thought to himself: Isn't this just encouraging each other to complain?

Is it because Xie Yuan was beaten earlier because he complained about it? The master and his wife felt it was wrong, but they couldn't beat Xie Yuan as they were, so they found this excuse to tell him not to bear grudges against Xie Yuan?

But the feud between him and Xie Yuan was not just about who got beaten up.

Due to the partiality of his father and teacher, the two of them were destined to be lifelong enemies, and it was impossible not to hold grudges.

Only he and Xie Yuan knew this best.

Just when he thought of this, he looked at Xie Yuan, and Xie Yuan happened to look at him too. Then the two of them looked away in disgust.

Mrs. Xie said at this time: "There is one thing here, the most important thing. Let you two supervise each other so that you can stop each other and don't do wrong things. It's not for you to find fault with each other and then file a complaint and let the adults punish you. .do you understand?"

Shen Liuzhen didn't say anything. He always felt that his wife was warning him, and he felt guilty.

And Xie Yuan really doesn't understand the difference here. Anyway, they say you can file a complaint, right?

So the two children didn't speak, just looked at her blankly.

Mrs. Xie sighed and said, "It's okay. You will know the difference gradually. Eat it quickly."
