"You have done so much for me, but I have let you down." Wei Xiang lowered his head and said, "You are the only people in this world who have treated me well. Not only have I failed your kindness, but I have failed to keep our secret and betrayed you. I heard that you were severely beaten by Aunt Gu, and you were seriously injured."

The two brothers were not happy to mention this matter, so Pingping changed the topic and said: "I just remembered this matter, you haven't explained to us yet, since you have arrived at your uncle's house, why are you back?"

"That is, if you know that you will come back after you leave, we wouldn't have worked so hard to help you back then."

Wei Xiang bowed his head sadly, "Uncle, he is not like I used to know, the uncle now is completely different from the uncle before..."

"Ah?" The two were confused, "Could it be that your husband was possessed by someone, no, by a ghost?"

Isn't this the case in Mr. Storyteller's story?

Wei Xiang also hesitated for a while, and after thinking for a long time, he shook his head and said, "It's not like that."

He remained silent for a while and said: "I think the uncle in the past was just pretending. He doesn't really like me, he's just using me, just like those girls and women in my yard."

"By the way, you don't know yet. My father drove away all the people who served me, no matter if they belonged to my biological mother or my stepmother. This made it easier for me. No one would dare to bully me anymore." He laughed at himself. Neither my mother nor my uncle took me seriously. My stepmother's companion bullied me, and my mother's servants also listened to my uncle's words and bullied me."

Pingping and Lele looked at him sympathetically, and instantly felt that his image was great and tragic. They thanked God for giving them a good birth, and they also wanted to thank their mother for not dying, their father for not remarrying, and they didn't have an uncle yet!

Thinking of this, Pingping paused, and looked at Wei Xiang thoughtfully, "You said that your uncle was just pretending, but in fact he didn't treat you badly."

Wei Xiang sighed, nodded and answered.

"What happened after you arrived in Jiangnan?"

"It's nothing, just like before, no one takes me seriously, and compared to the Weifu, I was treated two points more politely in the Ping family. And I was stepped on a few times by the servants who promoted me."

Wei Xiang, who was only five years old, could not restrain his temper. Although he kept silent when he was "stepped on", he exploded when he saw Uncle Ping.

The silly boy felt that his uncle was his relative, so he acted like a baby to him, but he didn't know that Uncle Ping used to treat him as a cash cow, but now he treats him like a hot potato, wishing to throw it outside.

Under this psychological condition, it is naturally impossible to pretend to be as perfect as before. Even if Wei Xiang is only five years old, he has noticed his impatience and differential treatment.

This kind of alone in a foreign land, after discovering that the only person he could rely on was not reliable, Wei Xiang had an unprecedented panic, so when Uncle Ping decided to send him back to Beijing, he came back obediently without making a fuss.

Wei Xiang sat on the edge of the flower bed, propped his chin and sighed, Ping Ping finally understood, he reached out and poked his younger brother, "No wonder Daddy said we were stupid, we are really stupid."

Lele looked at him blankly, obviously not responding.

Pingping nodded his forehead and said: "You are so stupid, brother Xiang and father have made it so clear, why don't you understand?"

Le Le Nu, Wei Xiang looked at them blankly, apparently not quite understanding what they were talking about.

"Why did we let Brother Xiang go to find his uncle?" Ping Ping said, "Because he is not doing well in Wei Mansion, we think he can live a good life with his uncle. So our ultimate goal is to let Brother Xiang live a good life, but we don't even see Brother Xiang's situation clearly, and mistake the thief for a benefactor, so aren't we blind and stupid?"

Lele suddenly realized, Wei Xiang blushed, and whispered: "My uncle is not a thief, and I don't think he is a benefactor."

Pingping and Lele didn't listen to him at all, and said annoyedly: "We are so stupid, we made a wrong step and missed the Dragon Boat Festival today."

"Listen, I seem to hear the sound of chant on Jinhai Lake." Lele turned to the direction of Jinhai Lake obsessively, and said whether to cry or not: "Dragon Boat Festival, I heard that Brother Emperor will also appear this year."

Wei Xiang couldn't help but said: "His Majesty will appear almost every year during the Dragon Boat Festival. I can't see it this year, but I will see it next year. Do you want to be so obsessed with it?"

"But the Dragon Boat Festival when I was five years old is only once in my life," Ping Ping said with a serious face: "If you miss this time, unless you go back in time, we will never be able to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival when you were five years old again."

Wei Xiang frowned, and he had to read Pingping's words three or four times before clarifying the meaning. After clarifying, he felt that what he said was very reasonable, but he was speechless to refute.

He felt a little guilty, thinking of them because he was not only beaten up, but also lost the only Dragon Boat Festival in his life when he was five years old, "Or, let's escape, and then you will blame me and say that I stole you out."

Pingping and Lele looked at him rather speechless, "Who do you think will believe this? Besides, our family is not yours. If you can steal us out, we will be your little brother in the future."

Wei Xiang wrinkled his nose, thought hard and still couldn't think of a good way, so he could only stare at them blankly.

Ping Ping pouted, "Forget it, if you really escape, you will be punished if you turn around."

The other two lowered their heads in frustration, and started to hoe the ground and plant flowers in a dull atmosphere. They didn't know who accidentally sprinkled the soil on the other person, and the dull cover seemed to be punctured by someone.

Lele directly grabbed a handful of soil, pressed Wei Xiang, and stuffed it into Wei Xiang's collar. Wei Xiang screamed from the cold, and immediately grabbed a handful of soil and smeared it on his face.

The servants of the Wei Mansion turned pale with shock, and wanted to stop them, but the servants of the Qin Mansion stopped them very calmly and said, "Don't worry, the young masters have their own sense of proportion, wait for them to take a bath when they are tired from playing."

The children of the Qin family have always been tolerant in this regard, as long as they don't do anything harmful to others, they can play however they want.

When Gu Jingyun and the others came back from playing, the three children had already turned into clay figurines. When they heard the movement from the gate, the three of them screamed and turned their heads to look at the flower bed that they had troubled. Only then did they realize that time passed so quickly, it was already afternoon!

The three children immediately dropped the soil in their hands, and ran to Wutong Garden, shouting, "Call for water, call for water, we need to take a bath!"

The servants of the Wei Mansion followed behind with a look of lovelessness, while the servants of the Qin Mansion quickly went to inform the kitchen, and when the third brother and child ran back to Wutong Garden, the big kitchen had already brought hot water.

The three of them laughed and peeled off and jumped into the water to wash and play.

Because it was too dirty, the three of them had to change the water three times before washing them clean. When they got dressed and went to the front yard, Gu Jingyun and the others sat down and drank a cup of tea.

Naturally, he also knew what the three children did today, so he didn't blame them, but said with a half-smile: "It seems that you have a good time without going out, but I feel sorry for those flowers and plants."

The three children lowered their heads and did not speak.

Gu Jingyun waved his hand, leaving Wei Xiang behind for dinner before being sent back. Before leaving, Baolu told him in front of the servants of the Wei Mansion: "Come and play with Ping Ping Le Le when you are free. They will be confined for a long time, and it is boring to be idle at home."

Wei Xiang happily agreed, and after that, he came to play with Ping Ping Lele every now and then. Gu Jingyun took Wei Xiang as an example to teach his two sons how to gain a foothold in that dangerous environment.

A person's eyes cannot be limited to the back house, but the back house is also a huge battlefield. Gu Jingyun does not let them immerse themselves in the battle of the back house, but hopes that they can understand some methods of the back house, so that they will not be overwhelmed when facing these back house calculations in the future.

And this is also beneficial for them to know people. At that time, his uncle only taught him how to behave and the affairs of the world, and he learned the affairs of the back house from his aunt.

Back then, my aunt was just in case. After all, he has such an identity, and Baolu has such a straightforward personality. If he didn't learn a little bit, my aunt was afraid that he would not be defeated by the previous court, but would die in the back house.

But when it came to Pingping Lele, perhaps because their family environment was so good, their aunt could no longer remember to teach them about the rear house.

As for Baolu, she wished her children would grow up optimistic, so why would she take the initiative to tell them these dark things?

Otherwise, the two children would not be so reckless to put Wei Xiang in a box and transport it away. Anyone who has a sense of backyard struggle knows that Wei Xiang disappears for no reason, and there are only two endings in the end. One is death, illness, and accident. If you can't find it, you will declare death, and the sadness will pass for a while.

The second is being trafficked, Wei Xiang is a boy, although the reputation of being trafficked is not good, but the blow to the Wei family will not be great.

However, the Wei family didn't have much affection for Wei Xiang, and would rather declare his death than declare his abduction and trafficking.

Therefore, the knowledge of fighting in the back house is very important, and he can use this as a starting point to teach them a lot of things, including clan, human relations, and laws.

Pingping and Lele used this as a starting point to absorb all kinds of knowledge from their father like sponges.

An An occasionally heard a class or two, and if she was interested, she ran to listen to it, and if she was not interested, she left her two younger brothers to play by herself.

By the time Li Baolu realized something was wrong, the two children had already learned more and more, and their views on some things were surprisingly consistent with their father.

Gu Jingyun hurriedly disregarded his relationship, "I didn't impose my ideas on them, I just mentioned a few words to them in class, but they are my sons after all, isn't it normal to inherit their father's will?"

Gu Jingyun blamed the matter on heredity.

Li Baolu sighed and didn't speak at the moment, but pushed Gu Jingyun out of the bed at night and said, "I'm angry, so you should leave quickly in order to prevent me from making a mistake and attacking you."

Gu Jingyun hugged her and said with a smile: "Then you do it, I will never cry out for pain."

Li Baolu moved her hands and feet, and found that he was pressing her down, and unless she used her internal strength, she couldn't get rid of him. She couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said, "From now on, the two sons will be as thick-skinned as you are?"

"Thick-skinned people are usually stronger mentally and have a strong ability to resist blows. Shouldn't the lady thank her husband for teaching them well?"

"As dark as you?"

Gu Jingyun smiled, put his forehead against his forehead and asked, "Is it okay?"

Li Baolu thought for a while and said, "I like my sons to be honest, but An'an needs to be like you."

Gu Jingyun was slightly surprised, "Why is An An, I thought you wanted her to be like you?"
