"Don't rush to refuse," Sun said arrogantly, "Letting them stay with you is for your own good, and for Jingyou's good too!"

Song Mingli's heart tightened and he couldn't help but hold Jingyou's hand.

Jingyou seemed to sense his mother's emotional ups and downs.

He also held Song Mingli's hand with his soft and tender little hand.

"The elder brother's name is Gu Huai, and the younger sister's name is Gu Jia. Gu Huai is about the same age as Jing You, smart and sensible, and has already begun to learn to read and write."

Sun seemed to be showing off, “Both children are extremely smart and learn things very quickly.

"Jingyou is so stupid, with these two kids as his companions, he will learn things faster!"

When Song Mingli heard this, he was filled with anger.

Jingyou is also Gu Qingshan’s child!

She is the daughter of the legal wife, but in the eyes of her mother-in-law, she is inferior to the daughter of the concubine in every way?

Jingyou shook Song Mingli's hand and suddenly spoke.

The soft voice, like the morning breeze, wrapped in freshness and fragrance, blew into Chongming Hall.

"The Master said, 'A filial son serves his parents by showing them respect when he lives with them, by taking care of them, by worrying about their illness, by mourning their death, and by solemnly performing sacrifices. Only when these five qualities are in place can he serve his parents. A person who serves his parents should not be arrogant when he is in a superior position, nor should he be disorderly when he is a subordinate...'"

Jingyou put one hand behind his back, shook his head, and recited very fluently.

The ups and downs of the children's voices made the literary scriptures interesting.

Sun's face darkened, "Who asked you to recite the book? What are you showing off? Song! Is this the child you taught?"

Sun didn’t understand, but Gu Qingshan had to understand.

He looked at Jingyou in surprise, "You have already learned the Book of Filial Piety? You just recited the tenth chapter! The previous ones are..."

"I've memorized the first part!"

Jingyou was full of confidence, as if waiting for this scumbag father to test him.

Gu Qingshan's mouth twitched...

He suspected that the mother and son were deliberately implying something to him!

One said that he had not returned home for seven years and had neglected the elderly and children in his family.

One of them immediately recited the "Book of Filial Piety".

It’s still Chapter 10!

He remembered very clearly that the first sentence of Chapter 11 was "There are three thousand types of the five punishments, but the greatest sin is unfilial."

Gu Qingshan looked at Jingyou with lingering fear...

Was he warning me on purpose?

Looking at that small figure and young face, Gu Qingshan secretly thought that he was too suspicious——

After all, he is only six years old. Even if he is precocious, how could he understand so much?

It must have been that evil woman Song Mingli who taught him!

Gu Qingshan snorted, "You are good at memorizing books, but just memorizing books is not enough."

Jingyou's eyes were bright, and he even nodded expectantly, "My son has also prepared a gift.

"I originally planned to give it to the elders during the Flower Festival. I never thought that Dad would come back early, and the gift would be put to good use!"

Without waiting for Gu Qingshan and Sun to refuse, Jingyou immediately asked his servant to go back and get it.

"What kind of gift can a child like him prepare?" Sun said disdainfully, "Mingli, don't spoil the child too much! It's not a good thing for him to show off so much at such a young age. If you don't discipline him strictly, he will get into big trouble in the future!"

Song Mingli felt a chill in his heart.

In her previous life, she was too submissive and obeyed her mother-in-law in everything, and she owed Jingyou a lot.

In this life, she opened her eyes——

All I saw was a child working tirelessly to win his father's love and to gain his attention and praise.

Her mother-in-law actually cursed her child like this!

If she were to let Sun manipulate her again, she would be hopelessly stupid.

The servant quickly brought the gift.

Jingyou stepped forward and handed a scroll of calligraphy and painting to Gu Qingshan with both hands.

Although Gu Qingshan had a dark face, he took the painting and unfolded it carelessly, "You are just a child, what kind of calligraphy and painting can you learn?"

After saying that, he glanced at Song Mingli with mockery in his eyes.

"If adults want to send a child, they can do so. There's no need to exploit a child."

He thought that it was a famous calligraphy and painting prepared for him by Song Mingli.

There was a hint of pride in his words, and he also mocked what Song Mingli had just said about "taking advantage of the child".

But when he looked back at the scroll, he was stunned and then his eyes widened, "This, this is..."

"Jingyou drew it himself..." Jingyou said with his little face raised.

"Impossible!" Gu Qingshan screamed.

His face was livid, his breathing was labored, and he stared at the calligraphy and painting in front of him with shock and anger.

This calligraphy and painting is definitely not of high quality.

The immature brushstrokes are relatively smooth, but lack strength, and it can be seen that the characters have been practiced for a long time.

But for a six-year-old, this is amazing!

Not to mention the painting, which is taken from the allusion of "fanning the pillow and warming the bed".

Children's paintings are very immature in technique.

But what is valuable is that the composition, color, and the artistic conception of the entire picture are all displayed under the childish brushstrokes!

Gu Qingshan was once praised as a talented person, and his paintings were also well-known in Kyoto.

But he asked himself, when he was six years old, he would never be able to draw so well!

Not to mention when he was six, even when he was ten, he didn't have such skills!

He looked at the painting in astonishment. In the picture, the little child was fanning his father's bed with a fan, while his father saw the child at the door and smiled lovingly.

Gu Qingshan just felt pain in his eyes and a tightness in his chest!

His hands, which were holding the painting, were shaking.

"Don't you like the story of Huang Xiang warming the mat and fanning the pillow?" Jingyou tilted his head and said, "Then next time, Jingyou will draw something else for you."

“You…you can draw other things?” Gu Qingshan didn’t believe it, and he didn’t want to believe it.

Jingyou smiled innocently, and he respectfully presented the other two paintings and calligraphy to Madam Gu and Madam Sun.

Madam Gu unfolded the small scroll, on which were written the words "happiness, longevity and health", with pictures of longevity peaches and evergreen pines below.

Although the font is childish, it is very neat, the pictures are vivid and the picture is clean.

Gu Huai and Gu Jia, who were standing by, looked at the scroll curiously.

Gu Jia just kept chewing her fingers and couldn't even recognize the words.

Gu Huai could read. His face turned red and he lowered his head even lower in inferiority.

Song Mingli knew that Gu Huai was a deep-minded person with low self-esteem and was sensitive.

In her previous life, she had put a lot of thought and energy into making him more confident...

For the rest of his life, he can stay wherever he wants.

"Okay, okay, this is a gift for the Flower Festival?" The old lady smiled, "Great-grandmother likes it very much! Jingyou is very thoughtful!"

Sun also opened her painting, on which was clearly written "Mother's Loving Heart and Harmonious Family".

There is also a painting of a woman with a kind face and a smile on her face, surrounded by flowers and birds holding flowers in their beaks.

The kind-hearted woman in the picture and Sun, who now has a gloomy face and a ferocious expression, formed a very strong contrast.

Song Mingli almost laughed out loud when he saw Sun's extremely distorted face...

Son, you understand the "connotation".

If the mother is kind, the family will be harmonious. If the family is not harmonious, it is not the fault of the daughter-in-law, Song Mingli, but the fault of the mother-in-law, Sun, who is not kind!

"Grandma, Jingyou is not naughty. Jingyou reads, learns to read, and learns to paint! He is no worse than others!" Jingyou is confident, open-minded and generous.

Song Mingli's nose felt sore...

Yes! Her Jingyou was also smart and studious, no worse than anyone else!

But in her previous life, she didn’t see these calligraphy and paintings.

Maybe it was because, in her previous life, she agreed too readily and didn't give Jingyou any chance to show himself.

During the Flower Festival... Jingyou had already fallen into the water and had a fever and was unconscious, and was bedridden.

It turned out that her cowardice in her previous life made her miss so much.

"Mother has seen it too. I have to raise Jingyou and take care of the household affairs. I really don't have the time to raise a child for others." Song Mingli's attitude was cold and firm. "If mother wants to divorce me because of this..."
