C14 There Was a Lot of Talk about It

What Xia Changping wanted to express was very simple. He just wanted to say that this matter was over and that he would never mention it again.

However, when these words entered Aunt Lin's ears, it changed her feelings.

"How can I not care? This child is not sensible. He always thinks that he has three heads and six arms. If I don't stop him, who knows what will happen."

"Alright, alright, stop talking." Lin Ning could already tell what Aunt Lin had done, but he did not want to argue with her now.

Lin Ning told Aunt Lin and Lin Chengcan to wait outside while he talked to Xia Changping in the room.

Xia Yu and the others stood outside the door and could hear the people inside.

"It wasn't a big deal in the first place, but in the end, it turned out like this. I'm really sorry."

"Brother, don't say that. It's because we didn't think it through. If I had known this would happen, I would have refused when Yu told me."

Lin Ning said politely, "Don't say anymore. If it wasn't for that woman, I don't think it would have turned out like this. Brother Xia, please don't take it to heart. We were in the wrong in this matter."

Xia Changping's good nature was once again displayed:" No, no, no, it's all your fault? Our family is also in the wrong. Let's not talk about this. Let it go. "

Since he had already said so, Lin Ning naturally walked down the stairs, "Since brother has already said so, then I'll go back first."

"Alright, I'll send you off..."

Then the door opened, and Xia Changping limped after Lin Ning. He walked him to the door and watched them leave.

Xia Yu looked in the direction they left and could not help but roll her eyes. She was about to return to her room.

"Yu, don't go yet. Dad has something to say to you." Xia Changping called out to her.

Xia Yu stopped in her tracks and walked in front of Xia Changping. "Dad, if you have anything to say, just say it. Your daughter is listening."

Xia Changping first sighed helplessly, then continued: "I'm really sorry, I know you, Aunt Lin, have something against you."

"That doesn't matter. In any case, I'm not living under their roof right now. There's no need to look at their faces."

Xia Changping nodded. "I've already asked someone to find out. The old man will be back tomorrow. Take Qingyun to take a look."

Xia Yu could not help but be taken aback. Everything was so coincidental.

"Should I take Qingyun with me? Wouldn't this seem insincere?"

She was just a little girl now. To meet a respected old man and even ask him for help, just thinking about it made her feel that it wasn't very solemn.

Xia Changping was very helpless: "I do want to go with you, but there are many things to do in the village tomorrow, so I have to stay at home."

Farmers naturally put farming first, not to mention that Xia Changping was also talking about the matters of the village, so everyone had to go.

Xia Yu did not say anything else and obediently nodded her head, "Alright then. If Dad has something to do, you can stay at home. I will go with Qing Ming."

"Then I will have to trouble you. Tomorrow morning, you will bring Qing Ming with you. I have also prepared some gifts for you. Take them with you."

Xia Yu nodded her head repeatedly. "Don't worry. I will definitely do it well."

What was wrong with her sister? Even if her parents were not around, as long as she had the heart to study, there was nothing to worry about.

The next morning, before dawn, Xia Yu was woken up by Xia Changping.

It would take a long time to get to the village on the mountain. It was just the right time to clean up.

However, it was not a good time to stay for lunch.

Xia Changping had already thought about it in advance. He thought that after they left in the morning, they could come back in the afternoon to help.

The siblings were on their way. Xia Yu was calm and collected, while Xia Qingyun seemed a little passive.

"Sis, I heard that the old gentleman is a very famous person. Will he look down on us?"

"What's there to look down on? If he really wants to bow down, then he might as well not bow down to this kind of person."

Xia Qingyun quickly said, "I'm not talking about that gentleman's character. Is he interested in me? I don't even know a few words."

" If you belittle yourself, then others will naturally look down on you. If you have the confidence and determination, others will definitely look up to you. "

Xia Qingyun was still uneasy. The main reason was that she didn't have any real talent, so she didn't have the confidence.

However, Xia Yu did not think so. She would just treat it as an exam. If she could not pass it, she would just come back.

After walking for a long time, they finally arrived at the village.

After all, this was a village that focused on studying. The people who worked in the fields all read this book.

Xia Qingyun also saw it. She pointed to the old man who was reading and said, "It's different from our village. Those who work in the fields can also read. No wonder it's so famous."

Originally, Xia Yu also thought that he was an ordinary person, but an ordinary farmer would not waste so much time.

The matter of planting food was related to the survival of her family. It was not something to be taken lightly.

The person who could do such a thing was most likely not an ordinary person.

Xia Yu secretly reminded Xia Qingyun, "Clean up your appearance. We're going to see the old gentleman."

At first, Xia Qingyun did not react until she saw Xia Yu walking towards the old man. Only then did he suddenly react, "Could that be..."

Although Xia Yu was not completely confident, she could basically confirm it, "Regardless of whether it is or not, let's go up and ask."

Xia Qingyun did not dare to be negligent. The two of us walked towards the old man.

"Sir?" Xia Yu called out first and bowed to him politely.

Xia Qingyun was stunned and quickly bowed like Xia Yu.

The old man looked up at them. "Whose children are you? Why haven't I seen you in the village?"

Xia Yu poked Xia Qingyun, indicating for him to speak.

Xia Qingyun quickly reacted and hurriedly said politely, "We are from the village above, the one by the river."

"Oh, I remember now. I think I went there to take a look before."

From beginning to end, the old man did not even ask them what they were here for. He just started to ask them where they came from. Xia Yu and the others called him sir, but he did not reject them.

Xia Yu started to size up this person, afraid that she might have mistaken him for someone else.

"May I know what you were doing over there?"

The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I heard that your village has a genius who knows how to read, so I followed him to take a look. That child's surname is Lin, what is his name again?"

"Sir, you must be talking about the village chief's son, Lin Chengcan, right?"

The old man nodded. "Yes, yes, yes, that child."

"I know that person. He's on good terms with our family." Xia Yu started to brag, thinking that Lin Chengcan at least had some real talent. It would not hurt to have some sort of relationship with him.

Who would have thought that the old man would suddenly say, "I see that the child is very inflexible, but he is not as intelligent as others say."

Xia Yu did not know why, but when she heard the old man's words, she felt quite comfortable in her heart. "Isn't that so? I think he's just a bookworm. He's always reasonable and well-behaved. He doesn't have any personality at all."

"Personality?" The old man frowned as if he did not quite understand this word.

Xia Yu started to explain, "Everyone has their own unique side to them. Personality is what makes them different from others."

The old man laughed out loud. "You are quite interesting, girl. You used that word just right."
