Chapter 13 Isn't it possible to sue each other?

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

"What's wrong?" Father Xie saw that her face was very sad, and asked while sitting down, feeling a little nervous.

Mrs. Xie hesitated for a while, then said:

"I don't know where to start."

"About what?" Father Xie asked in a discussing tone, very gentle, soothing Madam Xie's restless heart.

She rationalized 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,
"A Yuan is our own child. She has been raised so big. We all know her temper. Although she is naughty, she often can't sit still and cause troubles. But fortunately, she has a good heart, and she can listen to what she teaches. If she does something wrong Things, dare to admit, never lie..."

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

Seeing that Father Xie was listening to her seriously, he was a little puzzled, so he asked:

"Well, yeah, what's wrong?"

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

Father Xie first smiled, and said: "Liuzhen is a student who can sit still and has a good memory. He is young, quick-witted, and often has amazing words. This student is well received."

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

Father Xie was a little surprised, and then thought about it carefully and said: "...I don't think there is anything wrong with it."

Mrs. Xie's expression became more sad when she heard this, and she said, "Qilang, just now Xie Yuan came back and told me that Liu Zhen was beaten again by Captain Shen, and the beating was not light. .”

Father Xie's eyes widened, first in disbelief, then angry, and asked loudly:
"A Yuan went to sue Brother Shen?...Is this a character problem with Liu Zhen? Isn't this something wrong with us, A Yuan?! Unconvinced by the punishment, we sue behind our backs!"

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

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

Mrs. Xie sighed and said: "Actually... I can also think about why Liu Zhen's temper is like this.

He lost his mother a long time ago. Although Xiaowei Shen took him around all the time, he was mostly away when he was not at home.

The master of the family is just a little doll.If you meet an evil servant, you will only be humiliated.

The other day I heard him say that he had changed seven or eight wives just to take care of him, and I felt bad at that time. "

Mrs. Xie bowed her head and leaned closer to Father Xie, and said heartbrokenly:

"Think about it, he's only six years old this year. Excluding the first few years when the nanny took care of him, how many things would have to happen to change people so frequently?"

Father Xie listened carefully, looking like he was thinking.

Mrs. Xie sighed again and again, and said: "His father, Xiaowei Shen, is also a tyrannical one in educating children. He will beat him when he doesn't like it. He probably has a grievance, and he doesn't even have a place to complain."

As she spoke, she shed tears in empathy.

Father Xie stretched out his hand and grabbed Mrs. Xie's hand, stroked it gently, comforted her, and said with a sigh:

"I just think he's more obedient and smarter than ours, A Yuan. He's never thought about it. It's Madam who is more careful..."

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

What's more, he is still extremely intelligent, and he may have great achievements in the future. If his character is not good, wouldn't it be more harmful? "

Father Xie's pupils shrank, and he said, "Madam reminded me. I'm also to blame. They were arguing together. I only thought that A Yuan needed restraint, but I forgot that Liu Zhen's temperament also needed to be taught. But..."

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

After hearing his question, Mrs. Xie drooped her sad eyebrows, shook his hand lightly, and muttered:

"My good husband, if I know, what else do I ask you to do?"

The air is quiet.

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

……

……

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

They asked Xie Yuan to ask Shen Liuzhen to have dinner with them as long as Shen's father was not at home.

If he does not want to come, he is forced to come.

Of course, it is probably impossible for Shen Liuzhen to be unwilling to come.He is a fine person, what is good and what is not, he can figure it out clearly in his heart.

"Liu Zhen, is your injury better?" At the dinner table, Mrs. Xie asked concerned.

Shen Liuzhen pursed his lips and smiled, with two dimples on his cheeks, he said obediently: "Thank you, Mrs. Ma'am, for your concern. I've been used to it since I was a child. It's fine."

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

Although Xie's family was strict in family education, Xie Yuan's lively and direct energy was inseparable from the fact that their husband and wife had always loved her.

In comparison, Shen Liuzhen's deliberate cuteness is so precocious that it makes people feel distressed.

Mrs. Xie put a dish in his rice bowl and said:
"Liu Zhen, Ah Yuan is naughty and always gets into trouble from time to time. Look at her, if there is something wrong, stop her. If you can't stop her, just tell us directly, and we can control her so that she won't In the future, bigger disasters will come out..."

Xie Yuan was cooking rice, and after hearing this, his heart began to turn sore, and he looked at her mother pitifully with a pair of red phoenix eyes, without saying a word.

But Mrs. Xie pretended not to see, and turned to her and said: "You are the same, do you know what mutual supervision is? 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 your lord."

After Xie Yuan heard this, he instantly felt more pleasing to the ear, and became happy again.

Shen Liuzhen thought to himself: Isn't this to encourage each other to sue each other?
Is it because Xie Yuan was beaten because of his complaint?Master and wife thought it was wrong, but they couldn't beat Xie Yuan as they were, so they made such an excuse to let him not bear grudges against Xie Yuan?
But the enmity between him and Xie Yuan is not just a matter of someone being beaten up.

Just because of the eccentricity of his father and teacher, the two of them are destined to be enemies for life, and it is impossible not to hold grudges.

Only he and Xie Yuan knew this in their hearts.

Just thinking of this, he looked at Xie Yuan, and it happened that Xie Yuan also looked at him.Then the two looked away in boredom at the same time.

Mrs. Xie said again at this time: "There is one point here, the most important. The two of you are to supervise each other, so that you stop each other and don't do wrong things. It is not for you to catch each other, and then sue and let the adults punish you. .do you understand?"

Shen Liuzhen didn't speak, he always felt that his wife was warning him, and he was a little guilty.

And Xie Yuan really didn't understand the difference here, anyway, he said, you can sue, 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 after a while, eat quickly."
