Chapter 1295: The Troublesome Mischievous Child Sheng Zihan

"You have no idea, Yingjie hasn't suffered from insomnia these days at all; she sleeps very well every night."

In the past, she was always afraid that someone would harm her and covet the Ji Family's Treasure.

Now that the Treasure has been donated, there is nothing left for people to covet, so naturally, she feels light and carefree.

Shi Youxuan asked her father: "Dad, Kexin and Kelong are almost at the age to start school. What are your plans?"

Kexin and Kelong are the boy-girl twins born to Ji Yingjie and Shi Yucheng; the girl took the Ji surname, and the boy took the Shi surname.

The twins were born to them in their later years, so they usually treasure them immensely.

However, because of the large age gap, it is inevitable that their concepts of child-rearing are outdated, and they are prone to spoiling them.

Everyone thought Ji Yingjie would definitely spoil the children, but the result was the opposite.

She attaches great importance to the children's education and is very strict; the one who spoils the children is Shi Yucheng.

But her emphasis and strictness are not very good for the children's growth either; she does everything according to the Ji Family's methods, and I fear that children raised by an aunt like her will find it hard to adapt to the future society.

Shi Youxuan has been thinking about this problem for several days.

Now that she has brought it up, it is the perfect opportunity; her aunt is planning to open a university and is currently surrounded by educational experts, so keeping the two children in Jiangzhou and choosing the best school for them would be no problem at all.

Shi Yucheng: "I have to keep them by my side; they are still young."

"Then you should just stay in Jiangzhou; the elementary education here is better than anywhere else."

Shi Yucheng was tempted, but he is not the one who makes the final decision; he still needs to discuss this matter with his wife.

There are two months left until the two children start school; it is time to make a decision.

After the banquet ended, Shi Yucheng told his wife about this matter and sought her opinion.

Ji Yingjie perked up and walked toward her niece with great vigor: "Shi Youxuan, Shi Youxuan, didn't you say you aren't a member of the Ji Family and wouldn't interfere in our family's affairs anymore?"

"Hmph! I knew you couldn't do it!"

Her niece retorted: "Of course I won't interfere in your Ji Family's affairs, but Kexin and Kelong are not just children of the Ji Family; they are also my younger brother and sister. Why shouldn't I care?"

"I don't need you to care; I can take good care of them myself."

"Treating kindness like a donkey's liver and lungs; fine, you take care of them yourself, consider me meddlesome..."

The two of them started arguing.

Shi Ran and her husband snuggled together, watching the commotion while whispering to each other.

Yun Qitian: "Ranran, are you sure we don't need to break up the fight? Is it really okay for them to argue like this?"

Actually, his wife had already explained it to him earlier, saying there was no need to worry about them.

She has lost count of how many times she has seen a scene like this since she was a child!

Her great-aunt Ji Yingjie has a very strange hobby—she likes to argue with people.

She says that arguing can exercise lung capacity, detoxify and beautify the skin, and is beneficial to physical and mental health.

But looking around, the only person who dares to argue with her and can keep arguing with her for a long time is Shi Ran's mother, Shi Youxuan.

The rest of the Sheng Family is already used to it, but Yun Qitian is a new son-in-law and is not very familiar with the "hobbies" of the elders in the family.

Shi Ran: "I'm sure, no need to worry, look over there."

On the other side, Wang Yong and Liu Min are whispering to each other!

Two people who usually speak like thunder are now head-to-head and arm-in-arm, whispering.

If this were any other couple in love, it wouldn't seem out of place at all.

Only this pair is particularly out of place!

What is out of place is not the age gap, but their current behavior, which is too different from their usual selves.

Not only did the couple notice it, but a few mischievous children also noticed.

Sheng Zihan said to Zirui: "Let's go disturb them and eavesdrop on what they are saying."

Zirui said with disdain: "Childish, can you be any more childish?"

He nodded firmly: "I can, as long as you come with me; don't talk about being childish, I can even act like a fool for you."

Zirui:...

"You don't need to act, you just are one!"

He left after saying that; although they are twins, their temperaments and personalities are completely different.

Zirui possesses a cold-bloodedness inconsistent with his age, has little curiosity, and even less... interest in gossip.

But Zihan is different; he is so energetic that he seems like he has been injected with adrenaline every day, and he feels uncomfortable if he doesn't stir up some trouble.

Since Zirui wouldn't go with him, he went to find his eldest brother.

"Big brother, big brother, let's go eavesdrop on what Uncle Wang and Sister Liu Min are saying; they're being so mysterious."

"Not going."

Zichen refused flatly: "You don't learn anything good, only how to eavesdrop? Shall I tell Mom and see if she scolds you?"

"Don't, big brother, you didn't hear anything, I didn't say anything just now..."

Zihan grinned and begged his big brother for mercy.

His big brother promised not to tell, so he went to find his second brother.

His second brother Litian is even less interested in such gossip, but he couldn't withstand Zihan's pestering, so he agreed to go with him.

The two tiptoed behind Wang Yong and Liu Min, but still couldn't hear clearly.

"Forget it, let's go back," Litian whispered.

"Shh!"

Zihan held his index finger to his lips, telling his second brother not to talk too much, lest they be heard by the people in front.

The May-December couple in front didn't seem to notice and continued as they were, without the slightest abnormality.

Zihan felt relieved, but if he couldn't hear clearly, wouldn't it be a wasted trip? So he pulled Litian a bit closer... "Ouch!"

Liu Min was as fast as lightning, suddenly making a move.

She didn't even turn her head, yet she accurately grabbed Sheng Zihan by the collar, lifting him up and flipping him over... If she had succeeded in flipping him, Sheng Zihan would surely have been thrown very hard!

In a flash, Litian grabbed Liu Min's hand and pressed it down.

Liu Min reached out with her other hand as well, preparing to grab both of them at once.

But at the same time, she leaned back, and upon seeing that they were the Sheng Family children, her force immediately decreased by half.

Litian easily broke free and simultaneously rescued Sheng Zihan.

Wang Yong also discovered that the ones eavesdropping behind were Litian and Sheng Zihan; he didn't get angry, but he wasn't very pleased either: "What are you two trying to do? It's only because it's you two; if it were anyone else, I wouldn't have spared you. Go on."

Sheng Zihan pulled Litian, wanting to slip away, but Litian didn't move from his spot.

He said to Liu Min: "Auntie, can I take you as my master?"

"You, what did you call me?" Liu Min had no anger left at all, her face blushing red.

"I want to take you as my master. Auntie Master, please accept your disciple's bow." Litian was quick-witted and immediately performed the apprenticeship bow.

He had originally called Liu Min 'Sister', but suddenly changing his address to 'Auntie' made Liu Min feel a bit unaccustomed, yet she was happy in her heart.

"Alright." She agreed.

This matter was still discovered by Shi Youxuan.

After returning home, she called the boys in front of her: "Speak, whose idea was it?"

Mother's expression was unkind, and Sheng Zihan was still thinking about muddling through: "Mom, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

"Slap!"

Shi Youxuan kept a straight face and said sternly: "Sheng Zihan, it was your rotten idea. Don't treat me like a fool who doesn't know. You made a mistake and won't admit it, and you still want to muddle through. How do I usually teach you?"

She believed that it was normal for children to be naughty and make mistakes, but it was not normal to refuse to admit a mistake, try to shirk responsibility, and muddle through.

The former is human nature, the latter is character!
