Wishful Things

Xu Mingyi grasped his fingers slightly, suppressed the turbulent emotions, and looked at the old man for a moment: "But in this way, the Xia family will definitely find out that our Zhen Guogong is behind this matter, and the granddaughter is worried that the Xia family will secretly retaliate against--"

"Could it be that without this matter, Xia Tingzhen would treat our Zhen Guogong with kindness? The Zhan family is used by the Xia family, and he has repeatedly wanted to inquire about the affairs of my mansion. This alone is enough to show the Xia family's intentions!"

Zhen Guogong said to his granddaughter in a disapproving tone: "What's more, it's his Xia family's fault! And someone like Xia Tingzhen has a bunch of twists and turns in his stomach, and always takes care of the so-called overall situation. I forgive him I don't have the guts to confront the old man head-on—even if he really wants to use some other tricks, it's nothing to be afraid of, since sooner or later we have to face each other, it's not a bad thing to settle it early and go to bed early!"

Xu Mingyi almost laughed out loud, but the circles of his eyes were slightly red.

"Justice can't just be in people's hearts..." The old man patted his granddaughter on the shoulder lightly, and his voice eased: "Looking at Beijing, if even the Duke of Zhenguo dares to fight for this justice for them, then no one will be able to do it." Help them."

Hearing this, tears welled up in 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 be grumpy and unspoken, had actually helped many people secretly.

Grandpa said that he was able to get to where he is today not only because of his own ability, but also because of good luck.

And the luck in the world is limited, if it is won by him, people with the same ability as him are doomed to lose this luck.

So when he gets all these benefits, he must have a heart of gratitude and awe, and he must not forget his origins because of this. For those who are worthy of help, he must help secretly—not to be kind to others, nor to Showing kindness is just about having the ability to do something for your own peace of mind.

She has the best grandfather in the world!

And Xu Ying's matter was not a trivial matter to her.

She has never been so soft-hearted, but what she saw today made her very angry. She wanted to do this, but because of the past life, she had to look forward and backward.

The experience of losing her family in her previous life made her seem more hardened, but she was actually much timid inside.

To put it bluntly, she was terrified.

As usual, how could she, who is ignorant and fearless, care about these things? It must be just like what her grandfather said - just do what you want!

But now she has really become too timid, always thinking about the worst outcome when things happen.

At this moment, holding her grandfather and feeling the confidence and strength from her family, she really convinced herself that there is nothing wrong with planning for a rainy day, but if you blindly care about gains and losses, then you are doomed to only "loss".

Her father once told her that when people live in this world, when it comes to gains and losses, peace of mind is "gain".

"Grandfather knows that you are a persistent child... If you don't ask you to do it, you will definitely not be able to pass the test in your heart anyway." Zhen Guogong patted his granddaughter on the back lovingly and said: "If you really can't do it, grandfather can't let you mess around and do everything according to your ability. Isn't it just a coincidence that our family still has the ability to do this?"

To put it bluntly, if it was him, he would not necessarily intervene in this matter.

But Zhaozhao saw it with her own eyes, bumped into it, and she wanted to do it, so it was different.

He is not a person who has no bottom line in order to do good things. Injustice is everywhere in this world. Even if he wants to be kind, he must first see if he has the ability, otherwise he will become a fool.

And stupid kindness is meaningless.

He chooses to protect the child's kindness, and he also reminds her to keep that line.

"Grandfather was right."

Xu Mingyi calmed down, stood up straight, wiped away tears, and said: "Granddaughter has a sense of proportion in her heart, and she will definitely act cautiously."

And since she decided to do it, the significance of this matter is not just to help Xu Ying.

The grandparent and grandson discussed in detail what to do next to be the most appropriate and comprehensive.

In the end, Lord Zhen Guo said to his granddaughter: "Just try your best in everything. If you really can't do it, remember not to force it."

In this capital city, it is not an easy task to move the second son of the Xia family.

Xu Mingyi nodded.

"Granddaughter wrote it down."

Zhen Guogong half-jokingly said: "Go back and rest, this is a tough battle, you must keep your spirits up."

Xu Ming agreed, saluted and backed out.

Looking at the back of his granddaughter, Lord Zhen felt that he was more confident about the storms that he might face in the future.

Uncle Yun walked in.

"Bring me a military book!"

Lord Zhen Guo sat down in the chair and ordered.

Uncle Yun couldn't help being taken aback: "Are you not going to sleep anymore?"

Lord Zhen glanced at him: "If you tell you to take it, you can take it. The older you are, the more you talk."

His granddaughter is so useless, and he is in such a good mood, why is there any sleepiness?

Uncle Yun went quickly.

I lit the lamp in the study, and picked out some military books based on my intuition. After such a delay, it took nearly a quarter of an hour.

"I don't know which book you want to read, the old slave moved it for you..."

Uncle Yun turned back with a stack of books in his arms, and suddenly stopped in the middle of his conversation.

After confirming that his old man was indeed asleep in the chair, Uncle Yun silently carried the book back.

On the other side, Xu Mingyi went to Xiyuan alone.

However, halfway through, his feet suddenly stagnated.

By the way... Wu Chao was still waiting by the river, but she almost forgot about it!

After waiting for so long, he must have left, right?

After all, he wasn't very patient.

Thinking this way in her heart, the girl turned around very quickly and walked towards the backyard.

At first he just sprinted, and later he simply trotted.

Wu Chao, who was still waiting by the river, turned his head when he heard the noise.

I saw a girl in black jumping down from the wall with her hands up, like a nimble black cat.

The girl patted the dust off her hands and walked quickly towards him.

As they got closer, Wu Chao saw that the girl's face was full of smiles, and her lacquered eyes were shining with vitality.

Such a girl, with such an attitude, walking towards him so quickly, made him feel as if all the good things in this world were rushing towards him.

This illusion came suddenly and violently, and even made his expression look a little numb.

"Mr. Wu, my grandfather agreed—"

Before she came to him, she told him the good news while walking, quite like a child who got permission from her elders to do what she wanted to do, and she was so happy that she couldn't wait to share it with others.

Wu Chao was a little surprised, but he couldn't help showing a little smile in his eyes.

"That's good."

He doesn't like to smile usually, but this smile was quickly covered up.

Looking at the girl in front of him, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind——

If he becomes a grandfather in the future, he will definitely be a good grandfather like Duke Zhen.

As soon as the thought came out, the boy's face froze.

... He was thinking further and further.

...

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was bright, and the servants of each household in Qingyufang got up early and were busy as usual.

At this time, they still don't know that a big event will happen in the workshop today.

...
