Chapter 45 Am I Cheap?

Nothing is not!
Indeed, these are the appearance of Shen Xi in her memory, including the cinnabar birthmark the size of a red bean behind her ear, which is not bad at all!
She is still her!

But why did she suddenly become so tricky?become so difficult?
She stared at her desperately for a while, then gritted her teeth and said, "I hope you don't regret it!"

If you dare to challenge her in this family, she will let her know what it means to regret her bowels!

"Don't worry, it won't."

Shen Xiyang said with a smile.

Ji gave her a hard look, turned around quickly, and walked out the door.

The onlookers outside the courtyard who heard the news didn't expect her to come out suddenly, they couldn't dodge in time, and immediately dispersed.

She looked at the backs scattered away, and her eyes couldn't help being cold again.

It doesn't seem like it will take long for the story of her being deflated in Lixiangyuan to spread throughout the entire mansion!
She clenched her fists and strode towards Xiexiangyuan.

When all the people in the courtyard were gone, Zhu Zhen strode forward and bolted the door, leaning her back against the door panel to catch her breath, and then walked back.

Yuan Bei hugged Shen Xi's arm and jumped up: "Girl, you are so amazing!"

Nanny Liu also stroked her chest and said, "I really scared the slaves to death just now."

Aunt Pei was so excited that she didn't know what to do. When she finally saw Shen Liang who was still standing beside Shen Xi, she hurriedly urged: "Brother Liang, don't you hurry up and kowtow to the girl? The girl is here to protect you!"

Shen Liang also knew that if it wasn't for Shen Xi, today's beating would be unavoidable no matter what, so he obediently wanted to kneel and kowtow.

Unexpectedly, Shen Xi threw the stick into the yard, stretched out his hand and said to him, "Come with me."

The two siblings entered the main room hand in hand, and Aunt Pei and the others hurried to prepare the meal.

Shen Xi washed his hands first, took a wooden comb, walked to the table and sat down, made a cup of tea by himself, and then looked at Shen Liang who was obediently standing in front of him: "Do you think you did something wrong today?"

Shen Liang hesitated and nodded.

"What's wrong?"

"I shouldn't fight with others, and let my sister clean up the mess for me." He lowered his head to his chest.

"No." Shen Xi looked at him firmly, "In today's matter, there is nothing wrong with fighting in itself.

"Blindly giving in is not necessarily useful.

"If a person is born to swallow his anger and submit to it, then he is destined to be ridden on his head all his life. Someone bullies you, and you know how to resist, which is very good."

Before, she was really worried that he would follow Aunt Pei's temper, cowardly and fearful.

Shen Liang raised his head and looked at her half understanding.

She stretched out her hand to pull him over, looked into his eyes and said: "So what you did wrong was not fighting, but not knowing how to deal with the aftermath. A person can only cause trouble, but he can't do anything about it, how can he protect others?

"When it's time to hit someone, of course you have to hit someone. When you meet someone who bullies you, you must hit someone! But you have to think about the consequences of hitting someone.

"If it's a consequence that you can't bear, then use your brain and find another way, so that the other party can learn a lesson without losing yourself. Isn't that better?"

Shen Liang frowned and thought about it.

Shen Xi untied the remaining horns on the top of his head, and combed him carefully with a wooden comb.

He was silent for a moment, then turned around and said, "I see, Liang Er is too impulsive.

"If it weren't for impulsiveness, I wouldn't have hurt my sister and made her suffer. I know I was wrong, and I won't do it again next time."

He stood in front of him with his head bowed, full of uneasiness.

Shen Xi caressed his head, pulled him back, continued to help him tie his hair, and said, "Sister is next. But you have to think about it, what if sister is not by your side today?
"When someone comes to your door, you can't do anything about it.

"We have no parents, so we have to take charge of the family early. When my sister is away, not only can't cause trouble, but also protect our home, you know?"

"En!" He nodded heavily, "Understood, I will definitely do it!"

Shen Xi raised his lips and smiled, and tied a hairband on him.

The silhouette under the light makes the uneasiness caused by the hustle and bustle just now gradually disappear.

"elder sister."

"Ok?"

"Why do they always say that the concubine and the legitimate son are different?"

Suddenly he looked down at the shadow on the ground, and said quietly again.

"I compared it secretly. I have the same nose and eyes as the third brother and the others, and the arms and legs are also good. I don't lack what they have. Why is it different when I am a bastard?"

Shen Xi stopped his hands, looked at him who bowed his head slightly, and answered the words.

He turned around and looked at her with pursed lips: "I'm really low and low, am I a little bitch in everyone's eyes?"

"Nonsense!" Shen Xi scolded her lightly.

She squatted down and supported his arms, looking at his injured face: "Do you care what they think?"

"Yeah." He nodded, "I don't want to be called a little bitch."

Shen Xi held his breath and remained silent.

She turned her face away and looked elsewhere for a while, then she withdrew her gaze and said seriously: "Listen, there is no difference except that you and I were not born by the same mother!
"My mother is the main wife, and your mother is the concubine. In terms of status, there is indeed a distinction between high and low. There are also differences in rules.

"But this is something we can't decide on our own. What we can choose is whether to be an upright person or a despicable person.

"If you can make yourself strong, invulnerable, and able to keep yourself and those around you safe from harm, then it doesn't matter what other people think.

"And if a person thinks he is superior just by relying on his birth, then he must have nothing else to show off!"

Shen Liang raised his head, and the hurt in his eyes gradually receded.

Shen Xi calmed down, took his hand, and then said softly: "We can't choose our origin, but we can choose the path we will take in the future. So do you want to be a person whose destiny is controlled by birth, or a person who depends on his birth?" What about the person whose ability makes others admire you from the bottom of their hearts?"

"I want to be a strong person like my sister!" He said, looking up at her.

Shen Xi raised his lips: "Sister is not strong enough yet. But she will definitely become stronger.

"Remember what I said about your background, you are indeed a bastard, but in my heart, you are not lowly.

"Only those who do everything for their own selfish desires and disregard the principles of right and wrong are despicable and humble!"

"I see."

Shen Liang stretched his arms and threw himself on her, hugged her neck, and murmured softly: "I will listen to my sister and be an upright and useful person, so that no one will dare to underestimate us in the future!"

"Good job!" Shen Xi praised.

His fluffy hair stuck to her cheeks, and his body smelled of soap locust and the unique milky scent of a child.
