Xu Mingyi tightened her fingers slightly, suppressed her surging emotions, and looked at the old man for a moment: "But if this happens, the Xia family will definitely realize that our town government is behind this matter, and my granddaughter is worried that the Xia family will secretly retaliate.
against--"
"Could it be that without this matter, Xia Tingzhen would be kind to our Duke? The house is occupied by the Xia family, and he has repeatedly tried to find out what is going on in my house. This alone shows the Xia family's intentions!"
The Duke of Zhen Guo said to his granddaughter in a nonchalant tone: "What's more, the Xia family's fault for this matter! And for someone like Xia Tingzhen, who has a lot of crooked things in his belly and always takes the so-called overall situation into consideration, I forgive him.
I don’t have the guts to confront me head-on - even if he really wants to use another trick, there’s nothing to be afraid of. Since we have to face each other sooner or later, it’s better to solve it early and go to bed early! It’s not a bad thing!”
Xu Mingyi almost laughed out loud, but her eyes were slightly red.
"Justice cannot only depend on people's hearts..." The old man patted his granddaughter's shoulder gently and softened his voice: "Looking at the capital, if even our government does not dare to fight for justice for them, then no one can really do it.
Helped them."
Hearing this, tears burst out of the girl's eyes, and she stretched out her arms to hug the grandfather in front of her.
She knew that her grandfather, who seemed to have a bad temper and could not talk much, had actually helped many people secretly.
My grandfather said that his ability to reach this point is not only due to his own ability, but also good luck.
Luck in the world is limited. If he loses it, people with the same ability as him are destined to lose their luck.
So when he gets all these benefits, he must have a heart of gratitude and awe, and he must not forget his roots. He must secretly help those who are worthy of help - not to show kindness to others, nor to do so.
To show your kindness, you just have the ability to do something to make yourself feel at ease.
She has the best grandfather in the world!
As for Xu Ying, this matter is not a trivial matter to her.
She has never been so soft-hearted, but what she saw today made her extremely angry. She wanted to do this, but she had to hesitate because of what happened in her previous life.
The experience of losing her family in her previous life made her appear to be tougher, but in fact she was much more timid inside.
To put it bluntly, she was frightened.
Normally, she would not have cared about this because she was ignorant and fearless. It must have been just like her grandfather said - just do whatever you want to do!
But now she has really become too timid, always thinking about the worst outcome when something happens.
At this moment, holding her grandfather in her arms and feeling the confidence and strength from her family, she truly convinced herself that there was nothing wrong with planning for a rainy day, but if she only cares about gains and losses, she would be doomed to only "lose".
Her father once told her that in this world, when it comes to gains and losses, peace of mind is "gain".
"Grandpa knows that you are a persistent child... If I don't ask you to do it, you will never be able to pass this test in your heart no matter what." Zhen Guogong gently patted his granddaughter on the back and said:
"If you really can't do it, grandpa won't be able to let you mess around. Do everything according to your ability. Isn't it just that our family still has the ability to do this?"
To put it mildly, if it were him, he wouldn't necessarily intervene in this matter.
But Zhao Zhao saw it with her own eyes, bumped into it, and wanted to do it, so that was different.
He is not a person who has no bottom line in order to do good deeds. There are injustices everywhere in this world. Even if he wants to be kind, he must first check whether he has the ability, otherwise he will become stupid.
And there is no point in being stupidly kind.
He chose to protect his child's kindness, but also reminded her of the line she should keep.
"Grandpa was right."
Xu Mingyi calmed down her emotions, stood up straight, wiped away her tears, and said, "My granddaughter has sense in her heart and will act with caution."
And now that she has decided to do it, the significance of this matter is not just to help Xu Ying.
The grandfather and grandson discussed in detail what should be done next in the most appropriate and comprehensive manner.
Finally, Duke Zhenguo said to his granddaughter: "Just try your best in everything. If you really can't do it, remember not to do it forcefully again."
In this capital city, it is not an easy task to touch the second son of the Xia family.
Xu Mingyi nodded.
"My granddaughter took note of it."
The Duke of Zhenguo said half-jokingly: "Go back and rest. This is a tough battle, so you have to keep your spirits up."
Xu Mingyi agreed, bowed and walked out.
Looking at his granddaughter's back, Zhen Guogong felt more confident about the storms he might face in the future.
Yun Bo walked in.
"Bring me a military book!"
The Duke of Zhenguo sat down in the chair and gave instructions.
Uncle Yun couldn't help but be stunned: "Are you not going to sleep?"
The Duke of Zhen Guo glanced at him: "Go and get it if I tell you to. The older you get, the more you talk."
His granddaughter is so useful and he is in such a good mood, why should he be sleepy?
Yun Bo hurriedly went.
I lit a lamp in the study and selected some military books based on my intuition. This delay lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour.
"I don't know which book you want to read. I have brought it to you..."
Yun Bo turned back with a stack of books in his arms and suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Confirming that his old man was indeed asleep in his chair, Uncle Yun could only silently hug the book back.
On the other side, Xu Mingyi went to Xiyuan alone.
However, halfway through, my feet suddenly stopped.
By the way... Wu Chao was still waiting by the river, and she almost forgot about it!
After waiting for so long, he must have left, right?
After all, he is not a very patient person.
With this thought in her mind, the girl turned around very quickly and walked quickly towards the backyard.
At first he just walked quickly, then started to trot.
Wu Chao, who was still waiting by the river, turned around when he heard the movement.
I saw a girl dressed in black jumping down from the wall with her hands on her hands, like a nimble black cat.
The girl patted the dust on her hands and walked quickly towards him.
When he got closer, Wu Chao saw that the girl's face was all smiles, and her eyes were bright and full of life.
Such a girl, with such an attitude, walking towards him so quickly, made him feel as if all the good things in the world were rushing towards him.
This illusion came suddenly and violently, and even made his expression look a little numb.
"Master Wu, my grandfather agreed -"
Before she could reach him, she told him the good news as she walked, almost like a child who had received permission from her elders to do what she wanted to do, and was so happy that she couldn't wait to share it with others.
Wu Chao was a little surprised, but a smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes.
"That's good."
He usually doesn't like to smile, and this smile was quickly covered up.
Looking at the girl in front of him, an idea suddenly came to his mind——
If he becomes a grandfather in the future, he will definitely be a good grandfather like the Duke of Zhenguo.
As soon as the thought came out, the young man's face froze.
...He is thinking further and further.
…
Early the next morning, the sky was dim and bright, and the servants of each household in Qingyu Fang got up early and were busy as usual.
At this time, they didn't know that a big event would happen in the village today.
