As soon as he finished speaking, a man's voice was heard from the room: "What bad things are you saying about me again?"
Wen Qiyu strode in, his eyes fell on Chen Caihe, and there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes.
Jiang Ru stood up and said, "I didn't say anything bad about you. If you don't believe me, just ask Sister Chen."
Chen Caihe looked at Wen Qiyu, looked him up and down, and made sure that he was not injured. She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Qiyu came over and asked, "Does the wound still hurt?"
Jiang Ru said from the side: "Aren't you talking nonsense? How can such a deep wound not hurt?
Brother, you said that you, a grown man, did not protect Sister Chen, but instead let her get hurt for you.
You are a high-ranking minister, but you have to be protected by a weak woman, and you are not afraid of being laughed at if word spreads."
Wen Qiyu glared at her: "You're the only one who talks a lot. Go get some food and deliver it."
Jiang Ru curled her lips and said to Chen Caihe: "Sister Chen, if my brother bullies you, just tell me and I will help you teach him a lesson."
Chen Caihe blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
After they left, she said apologetically to Wen Qiyu: "I'm sorry, Mr. Wen, for causing you trouble."
Wen Qiyu frowned: "Call me Brother Wen."
Chen Caihe was stunned for a moment and looked at him in surprise. His eyes were full of panic, like a deer that accidentally entered the mortal world.
Wen Qiyu said: "I don't like others to call me sir."
Chen Caihe lowered his eyes and called softly: "Wen...Brother Wen."
Wen Qiyu smiled slightly: "Treat this place as your own home, take good care of yourself and don't feel restricted.
I will take you to see Yun Xi after I finish my work."
Chen Caihe nodded and responded: "Okay."
Wen Qiyu reached out and touched her head, and then said: "My sister speaks freely. If there is any offense, please bear with her."
Chen Caihe said hurriedly: "No, she is not as unruly and willful as you said.
She is obviously a very interesting girl, and I like her very much."
Wen Qiyu raised his eyebrows: "You just like her?"
"ah?"
Chen Caihe didn't understand what he meant for a while.
Wen Qiyu changed his words and said: "I mean, as long as you like it, Yun Xi's good sister is also at the house. She will come to see you later."
Chen Caihe heard Shen Yunxi mention that she had a sister who was Beichen's quasi-Crown Princess named Mu Yun'an.
She asked nervously: "Miss Mu, are you easy to get along with? I...I'm afraid of saying something wrong."
Seeing how cautious she was, Wen Qiyu remembered what Mu Yun'an had said.
This girl is timid and has a bit of inferiority and cowardice. I really don’t know what Xiao Chengyi thought of in his previous life to let him win the beauty.
He said: "Don't worry, Miss Mu, like Yun Xi, are both very easy to get along with."
After a pause, he continued: "Caihe, do you still remember what I told you? All living beings are equal, there is no distinction between high and low.
Don’t always feel that you are inferior to others. If you don’t look down on yourself, how can others look down on you?”
Wen Qiyu looked at her and said, "Do you know why I became an official?"
Chen Caihe shook his head.
Wen Qiyu said: "I am an official, not for any future or any great ambition, but simply for my sister.
When I was young, our family was very poor, and there was another famine that year.
It was really hard to open the pot at home, but at this time, my mother fell ill again.
My father was desperate and saw that the whole family was about to starve to death, so he became cruel and secretly sold his sister."
