Chapter 489 Xiao Mi Er Punished by Standing
Ye Shenge returned home in the evening and saw the children playing in the living room, knowing that the incident had not affected them at all.
"Mom, have you been very busy these past few days? You haven't had time to pick me up from school."
Xiao Mi Er was the first to run and hug her mother's leg, not forgetting to complain about her mother's negligence.
Ye Shenge hung up her bag and picked up her daughter, then sat down next to her son.
"Mom has been very busy these past two days, but it's over now. I promise to take you to school tomorrow morning, okay?"
"Hmph, Uncle A Can held me under his armpit today when he picked me up, and my classmates were all laughing at me."
Xiao Mi Er pouted and complained. Xiao You You, like a little adult, was speechless.
"Is that so? Perhaps Uncle A Can was in a hurry to get you home. After all, it's dangerous not to go home right after school."
Ye Shenge knew her daughter too well. She was a little devil who feared no one. What she decided was usually only suppressed by force.
"But I lost all my dignity. Uncle A Can messed up my hair."
"It can be tied up again if it's messy. Uncle A Can is working hard for Daddy and Mommy, so Xiao Mi Er should be obedient and respect Uncle A Can and the others in the future."
Xiao You You rested his little face on his mother's arm, knowing that his mother was the fairest and wouldn't be fooled by his sister.
"Hmph, Mom doesn't love me anymore. She only scolds me every day, but I've never seen you scold my brother."
Ye Shenge was truly displeased. This child was so spoiled that she only knew how to complain about others and never thought about her own mistakes.
"Your brother hasn't made a mistake, so why should I scold him? Besides, you only say things that are favorable to you. About today's incident, what exactly are you hiding? Why aren't you telling the truth!"
Xiao Mi Er had rarely been so strictly disciplined by her mother. She was immediately frightened, and tears welled up in her big eyes.
"Wuwuwu, Mom is so fierce, Mom doesn't love me anymore."
"Endure it. Now tell me what happened today."
Xiao You You tugged at his mother's arm with his small hand, wanting to say a few words for his sister, but he couldn't when he saw his mother turn her face.
Ye Shenge was determined to teach her daughter a lesson today. If she continued to indulge her, this child would surely go astray.
Aunt Zhen heard the child crying from the kitchen and came out with a spatula, but upon seeing Ye Shenge's expression, she immediately turned back. Madam rarely got angry, but once she did, no one could persuade her.
"Stand up and tell me what exactly happened today."
Xiao Mi Er stood up, her lips tightly pursed, refusing to speak, a stubborn expression on her face.
"You won't tell me? Fine, you can stand there until you're willing to tell me the truth, and then we'll talk."
The mother and daughter faced off like this until Zi Yi Sheng returned home.
The moment Zi Yi Sheng stepped through the door, he sensed the unpleasant atmosphere at home. He saw his wife flipping through a newspaper, ignoring him, and his daughter standing with her back to him, also ignoring him. As for his son, he only waved perfunctorily when he saw him.
Zi Yi Sheng took a deep breath. He had to be careful today. As he passed his daughter, he could only harden his heart and pretend not to see her, quickly going to his wife.
"Wife, what's wrong today?"
"Nothing much. Just resolving an issue with your daughter."
Ye Shenge didn't even lift her head. This child was spoiled by this man.
"Can I ask the child the reason then?"
"No, this matter can only be resolved by me and Zi Mi Er."
Xiao Mi Er looked at her father with teary eyes, hoping he would save her quickly, otherwise her legs would break from standing.
But Zi Yi Sheng could only avoid his daughter's gaze. He was in trouble himself if his wife was angry.
"Xiao You You, go wash your hands and wait at the dining table for Mom and Dad. Zi Mi Er, go face the wall."
Ye Shenge put down the newspaper and issued the order. Zi Yi Sheng quickly winked at his daughter. It would be worse if she disobeyed now.
Xiao Mi Er's walking posture was a bit strange again, which made Zi Yi Sheng's heart ache.
"Wife, daughter..."
"Has Jin San Mu confessed?"
Zi Yi Sheng was completely interrupted. He glanced at his daughter's pitiful back and said.
"He confessed. Wei Jiu used drugs. The leader of Jin San Mu was someone raised by the Baili family back then. However, this minor subordinate was missed during the purge. He cultivated a group of people with his acquired skills, and Wen Gu was the most outstanding among them.
Of course, this is limited to her quick hand speed and attractive appearance. She has almost never failed in the matters she handled. Her hands are stained with many lives, and her nickname is 'Black Killer Hand'."
"Heh, she really thinks she's someone just because she knows a few tricks. She contacted you to replace me? Is she preparing to retire from the criminal world and go straight!"
Zi Yi Sheng felt a hint of jealousy in his wife's tone and quickly embraced her affectionately. Ever since he fell in love with his wife, no other women had appeared around him. Even those with ulterior motives had been cleared out. A man should never cause trouble for his wife in this regard.
"This was my oversight. It's mainly that I didn't know about this person's existence, otherwise I would have dealt with her directly. However, Wen Gu alone has committed enough murders to be sentenced to death, so you can't be angry for an insignificant person."
Especially when innocent people were involved. Today, both he and his daughter could have been innocently implicated.
"I'm not angry, but I promised Wen Gu something today."
Zi Yi Sheng raised an eyebrow. His wife had something to say to Wen Gu?
"What is it?"
"I promised Wen Gu that I would let her witness all her companions die before her."
As expected, he knew his wife wouldn't let go of a woman who coveted him. His wife was actually the most petty person, but only when it came to him.
"No problem, I'll make sure Wen Gu gets a good taste of the fear of death."
Ye Shenge nodded with satisfaction and then put Wen Gu out of her mind.
"How is Qi Xuan doing recently?"
"Nothing much, she's just been clamoring to see you, but I didn't agree."
Ye Shenge rubbed her temples, thinking that she wanted to see her to beg for mercy.
"It's good that you didn't agree. I don't want to see her."
Zi Yi Sheng reached out and rubbed his wife's head. He looked at his daughter honestly facing the wall with a heart full of pity. He opened his mouth several times but didn't dare to ask.
"Dinner is ready."
Ye Shenge opened her eyes and gave her husband the first smile of the evening.
"Hurry up and wash your hands to eat."
"Okay, you go wash first. I'll take off my coat."
Zi Yi Sheng saw his wife walk into the bathroom and quickly took off his coat and ran to his son.
"Quickly tell me what happened to your sister today."
Xiao You You's face was expressionless as he quickly recounted the incident, and it was very clear and logical. After he finished, he didn't express any of his own opinions.
"You brat, why didn't you try to persuade your mother? Her health isn't good, what if she gets angry?"
"She's already angry. If you have the guts, you try to persuade her. I don't dare."
"You, you little brat, I've doted on you for nothing."
"Dad hasn't washed his hands yet. Mom will make you accompany your sister if she finds out."
Zi Yi Sheng was so angry that he flicked his son on the head. This brat was really annoying.
Ye Shenge came out of the bathroom and stopped as she passed her daughter.
"Zi Mi Er, turn around."
Xiao Mi Er's eyes were swollen from crying. She turned around pitifully to look at her mother.
"Are you ready to talk?"
"Mom, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time, Mom."
"Then tell Mom the real situation of what happened today."
"I, I..."
At this moment, Zi Yi Sheng quietly stood behind his wife and winked at his daughter, signaling her to speak quickly.
"Still don't want to say it?"
"Wuwuwu, Mom, I was wrong. Today, when Uncle A Can came to pick me up, I was playing rubber band jump with my classmates. Uncle A Can said we had to go home immediately, but I didn't want to and continued to play.
Uncle A Can told me several times that we couldn't stay at school today, but I was having fun and got angry with Uncle A Can. Then Uncle A Can picked me up and left, and messed up my hair."
Ye Shenge squatted in front of her daughter and lowered her voice.
"Do you know what your problem is?"
"I, I shouldn't have refused to leave when Uncle A Can reminded me to go home. And I got angry with Uncle A Can. And I was angry with Mom. And I said Mom never scolds brother. And, and."
Xiao Mi Er thought hard but couldn't think of anything else, so she could only cry and look at her mother.
"Mom, I can't think of anything else."
"Then let Mom tell you. You shouldn't hide your mistakes when you complain. This can be considered deception.
You shouldn't be jealous and say that Mom never scolds brother. Have you ever thought about whether your brother rarely makes mistakes? But when he does make mistakes, Mom still scolds him. "
Xiao Mi Er was a very intelligent child, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to avoid the important and focus on the trivial at only five years old. But she still couldn't quite understand her mother's words, and her little face was full of confusion.
"Xiao Mi Er, you've already realized where you went wrong in this matter. So, tomorrow, you will go and apologize to Uncle A Can. Because Uncle A Can and the others have always protected our family, they deserve respect."
"Yes, Mom, I won't get angry with the uncles anymore."
"Also, from now on, when you want to complain, you must tell the whole story and not hide anything. Even if you have made mistakes, you must say them, otherwise Daddy and Mommy will be deceived by you."
"Yes, Mom, I will never lie or complain casually again."
Ye Shenge reached out and wiped the tears from her daughter's face.
"It's not that I don't want you to complain. If you have anything that makes you unhappy, you can share it with Mom and Dad, so we can help you analyze the problem. It's not good to keep it all bottled up."
"Mhm, Mom, I know I was wrong."
"Also, your brother really loves you. When Mom was criticizing you just now, he secretly asked Mom not to scold you. But you, you are jealous of your brother. This makes me very sad.
Do you know that your brother is one of your closest people, just like Mom and Dad? He will only love and dote on you like Mom and Dad. It's just that the way of expression is different."
Xiao Mi Er looked at her brother, who had been standing nearby for a long time, and cried out, throwing herself into his arms.
"Brother, I didn't mean to. It's just that you never make Mom angry, and I want to be like you, but I feel very unhappy. Wuwuwu, I don't know how to say it."
Xiao You You still had a cold expression on his face, but he reached out and patted his sister's head.
"Mhm, remember to listen to Mom from now on."
