Chapter 129 A distinguished guest visits
The autumn wind ruffles the pond, and ripples appear on the sparkling water.
Shen Lanxi raised her eyes and stared at Shen Zhuang in a daze.
He has been smart since he was young, so even if Shen Zhuang only visited him briefly, he could still feel the deep feelings hidden behind his grandfather.
Shen Lanxi suddenly felt a little ashamed, because he was the only one who knew that others were trapped because they were in the situation and didn't know how to struggle, but he was different. He allowed himself to indulge and was deliberately trapped.
"Lan Xi, as long as people live in this world, they will face various tests. Grandpa doesn't want you to give up on the exam just because there's a blemish on the paper. Many people know they can't submit a perfect answer but still try very hard to put it together. Grandpa doesn't want you to be buried like this."
Shen Lanxi was silent for a long time, then asked, "Grandpa, are you talking about Shen Guiling?"
Shen Zhuang nodded. "Do you know why A-Ling came to see Grandpa? He was covered in wounds and had a bag of snakes. Yao Zilei tried to murder him with his pet snake, but when that plan failed, he hired someone to block him at school. These things happened a few days ago, and A-Ling has been hiding them. You're so smart, you must know why he chose to tell us now instead of earlier or later, right?"
Shen Lanxi nodded.
Such a big thing happened today, the Yao family will definitely come to their door tomorrow. Because of Yao Jun's previous scheming, the Yao family felt that they were in the wrong, so they endured the humiliation and acquiesced to Shen Guiling entering the Shen family.
The Shen family has already offended the Fu family through their aggressiveness. If they then unreasonably offend the Yao family, they will inevitably be criticized.
But with the incident of Shen Guiling, the wind direction is completely different.
Two near-murder plots resulted in a severe beating from the Shen family. Even if the Yao family came knocking on the door tomorrow, they would have no choice but to admit their mistakes.
Shen Zhuang knew that Shen Lanxi had already understood, so he stood up, walked to the corner, picked out a pot of freshly transplanted seedlings and handed it to him.
"Lan Xi, even if you are a genius of a hundred years, this world will not wait for you forever. If you don't come out, it will have a new owner."
Shen Lanxi is proud and arrogant, and mere pity and favor are not enough to move him.
But opponents who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him can.
Shen Lanxi looked at the small seedling in front of her, was silent for a long time, and finally took it with both hands.
"Grandpa, I understand."
Shen Zhuang patted his shoulder with relief.
"Grandpa was just looking at Ah Ling and wondering if he was wrong. The more cautious he was, the more likely he was to hurt you. So, you have to be more alert. If you make a mistake again, I will punish you the same way I punished Qingyu. You should be mentally prepared."
If it is an ordinary person, you will easily invite him to play football together, but if the other person is a disabled person in a wheelchair, you will always avoid any sports involving feet.
Therefore, if you want to make a person in a wheelchair believe that you are the same as an ordinary person in his eyes, the best way is to take him hiking, playing football, and doing everything that ordinary people would do.
Shen Lanxi raised her eyes, a smile blooming in her eyes that was like ice and snow just beginning to melt.
"it is good."

The next morning, the air was crisp and clear.
Outside Shenyuan Garden, luxury cars drove one after another, filling up the three acres of land in front of the square.
The old man of the Zhou family got out of the car first. "Oh my! It's been a while since I last visited. Doesn't the old Shen family's doorway look more impressive?"
At this time, the old man of the Su family got out of a Rolls-Royce antique car.
"Really? Are you old and your eyesight blurry? To me, it looks the same as it did last year."
Butler Su got out of the passenger seat and silently held an umbrella for his master.
Zhou Guochao glanced at Su Jingliu and said, "If I had known you were coming today, I wouldn't have come."
"grandfather."
Zhou Yanheng got out of the car from the other side, moving forward and backward with measured steps. "Grandpa Su, please don't be offended. Uncle Yao told Grandpa you would come a long time ago, and he has been talking about you since he woke up this morning."
Su Jingliu's gaze lingered on Zhou Yanheng for a moment, and he burst into laughter.
"Is this Ah Heng? He's grown taller and more handsome since I last saw him half a year ago." He glanced at the short and round Zhou Guochao and said, "It seems the saying that good shoots come from bad bamboos is true."
Zhou Guochao snorted coldly, "You're just jealous. Who told you that your family doesn't even have a good bamboo shoot with a stick?"
Zhou Yanheng looked helpless and tugged at his grandfather's sleeve.
Zhou Guochao was annoyed. "When did I ever say anything bad about him? I was happy this morning because I could openly come to the Shen family to pick a fight. What does this have to do with his vicious tongue?"
"Uncle Zhou, Uncle Su."
As he was speaking, a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance got out of the car. The man was dressed in a suit and looked very impressive. He was the current head of the Yao family, Yao Li.
Following closely behind are Yao Ge and Yao Zilei.
Among them, Yao Zilei had bandages all over his body and was lifted from the car into a wheelchair.
"I'm afraid it will be hard for you two uncles today."
Ever since Yao Jun's story broke, the Yao family has kept a low profile. While yesterday's incident was just a childish brawl, its nature was completely different. If there's no explanation, the Yao family's already precarious reputation is in jeopardy.
Therefore, Yao Li called both Zhou and Su families overnight, hoping to resolve the matter peacefully through their influence.
Zhou Guochao looked at Yao Zilei in the wheelchair with a look of surprise, and turned his head to wink at Zhou Yanheng beside him.
"Being beaten like this? I thought it was an exaggeration. What about the one from the Fu family?"
Zhou Yanheng lowered his head, "Fu Wenbo is no better."
As they were still talking, the gate of Shen Garden was pushed open from the inside, and Shen Zhi walked out with neither arrogance nor humility.
"The old man heard that a distinguished guest has arrived, so he invites everyone to the main hall for tea."

On this side, Jiang Huashan had just walked out of the Chrysanthemum Garden after being dressed neatly when she was pulled over by Fu Suier who was waiting outside the garden.
"What are you doing? You're so scary!"
Fu Suier looked around and leaned forward to whisper in his ear, "Have you heard? The Yao family invited both the Zhou and Su families. It seems they're here to ask for an explanation from us."
Jiang Huashan was stunned for a moment, "Where is it? Have we entered the garden?"
Fu Suier nodded, "I heard from Aunt Feng that he was drinking tea in the main hall."
Jiang Huashan's eyes lit up slightly, and he turned his head to look at Fu Suier, "What do you want to say?"
Fu Suier grinned, "What do you want to say?"
After the words fell, both of them put on sinister smiles. ...
