Chapter 405
Little Sixth and PingAn played the best together. Seeing him sad, I couldn't help feeling sad too. "PingAn, don't be sad. I remember my mom once said, anyone who makes you sad is not worth your sadness. Don't cry, I want to cry when you cry."
"Woo woo..." PingAn pulled the quilt and sat up, hugging Little Sixth tightly. "I don't want to cry either, but I...I...I...can't control it!"
Pei Yong came in from outside and looked at them harshly, "Both of you, get up and stand properly."
Little Sixth and PingAn were very obedient. They immediately stood up without even wiping the tears off their faces.
"PingAn, this time Grandpa didn't punish you, not because you did nothing wrong. We adults are willing to believe that you were framed, and give you another chance. But have you ever reflected on why others could frame you so easily?" Pei Yong asked them, "I told you many times before that you are still kids. No matter what happens, you should seek help from adults. But you didn't care and impulsively confronted an adult. No matter how stupid the adult is, can he be more stupid than two kids?"
"Grandpa, we know we were wrong."
"Uncle, we know we were wrong."
"I just hope that in the future when you do things, you can think more and consider more. This time you are lucky enough to be fine. But what if you encounter worse and more sinister people next time? What would you do?" Pei Yong asked them.
He had lived for most of his life and met countless bad people. Liu Chunhua was only wicked at heart.
He could probably guess some of her thoughts. She probably blamed PingAn for JianGuo's unwillingness to have children. So she wanted PingAn to leave and be with his mom.
Guo Momo and JianGuo were completely at odds. If PingAn was with his mom, it would be no different from JianGuo having no son. In this case, he would definitely consider having another one.
After all, nowadays people still think it's necessary to have offspring.
Speaking of which, Pei Yong still couldn't believe that Pei JianGuo was so against having children. After all, he had intervened in his marriage. Pei JianGuo just ignored him, but was particularly firm on not having children.
Seeing the two kids lowering their heads without arguing back, Pei Yong felt distressed and helpless.
"It's good that you know you were wrong. Go stand facing the wall in the living room for two hours. And each of you has to write a repentance letter." Pei Yong supervised them personally. They had to be educated well after doing something wrong. Being lenient would lead to repeated mistakes.
Guo Momo angrily came to the hospital. As soon as she entered, she saw Pei JianGuo feeding Liu Chunhua soup.
Looking sick, she lay in bed with her head wrapped up tightly, apparently seriously injured.
No wonder his grandfather beat the children so badly. Liu Chunhua was also vicious. It was agreed to only have some minor conflicts with the children so that contradictions would naturally arise over time.
But she was so sinister that she wanted to get it done in one step without considering PingAn's reputation at all.
When Liu Chunhua saw Guo Momo, she inevitably flashed a trace of panic.
Noticing Liu Chunhua's abnormality, Pei JianGuo looked back and saw the unfriendly Guo Momo. He immediately frowned, "You still have the face to come? It's all because you spoiled the child. If you hadn't taught the child all kinds of indecent words behind my back, how would he, a child, understand and do such an impulsive thing? Guo Momo, I've always felt that you are not a good person, but your motherly love for PingAn is real. But now I finally see through you clearly. You are a thoroughly selfish and profitable woman. You are still the same as before, using any means to achieve your goals. You can abandon PingAn for studying abroad. And now in order to get PingAn back, you even teach him to be bad..."
Pei JianGuo scolded her. But Guo Momo just sneered at Liu Chunhua, "I want to talk to you alone. I believe you shouldn't refuse, right?"
Frightened, Liu Chunhua looked at Pei JianGuo. She was timid as an ant and certainly didn't dare to face Guo Momo alone.
Feeling nervous, she quickly explained, "PingAn's mom, I know why you came. I've given in. I told everyone that PingAn didn't push me. I fell by accident."
"Guo Momo, don't go too far. I won't argue with you about asking Chunhua to help you take PingAn away. But I do it all for PingAn's sake. I also hope you can have some self-restraint." Pei JianGuo said.
Liu Chunhua's reaction was still relatively quick, and she soon found an excuse to defend herself.
Thanks also to her lack of education, she was easily intimidated by Guo Momo, thinking she could really prove whether or not she had framed PingAn and Little Sixth through those details.
Pei JianGuo was silent because right now he didn't know who was right or wrong. His own mind was also confused and he couldn't discern right from wrong for the time being.
But he also knew Liu Chunhua was right that it was the two kids who came to the door first.
"Comrade Guo, even if I was confused at the time and made a mistake, were you not wrong either? Don't forget, it was you who came to me a couple days ago saying you wanted me to make things difficult for PingAn. I hadn't agreed to you at that time." As she spoke, Liu Chunhua grabbed Pei JianGuo again, "JianGuo, I really didn't mean to falsely accuse the kids. But you don't know how I felt when they scolded me today. They clearly knew the children were my biggest sore point, yet they kept stabbing at my heart, saying I was a vicious, evil woman who could never have children in this life. If not for those words, I wouldn't have lost my mind in anger at the time."
Guo Momo was also unable to refute this, because she had indeed said such things before.
But her so-called making things difficult was verbally and physically, not getting her to frame the children and ruin them.
Guo Momo warned Liu Chunhua to explain things clearly to the police herself. In fact, this matter had already been determined as a family dispute. No matter who was right or wrong, it would not lead to detention or imprisonment, mainly just for reputation.
ZhiXia rushed over when Liu Chunhua had already been abandoned at the hospital by Pei JianGuo.
Only now did he realize what it means when they say, "A pitiable person must have something hateful."
Liu Chunhua was pitiable having met him, which was also her misfortune. But this did not mean that she could hurt his children for whatever reason.
Of course, PingAn was also wrong and could not refute having taken the initiative to provoke the incident, which gave Liu Chunhua the chance to falsely accuse him.
As soon as Liu Chunhua saw ZhiXia, she cried pleadingly to her, "Auntie, please help me. I didn't mean to harm anyone. I was just so angry at the child that I momentarily got the idea to make it difficult for PingAn and have his mom take him away. I didn't expect things to get so serious. Really, believe me..."
Whether she was pitiable or not was not for ZhiXia to judge or feel heartache over. She knew this point clearly.
"No matter if you were confused or truly malicious, people always have to pay the price for what they do themselves. I can't help you either." ZhiXia secretly took YuanBao away while eavesdropping on their conversation through the monitoring device.
In this matter, neither Guo Momo nor Liu Chunhua were innocent, while PingAn and Little Sixth were also outrageously wrong and deserved punishment.
When ZhiXia returned, Little Sixth had just finished standing punishment with PingAn under Pei Yong, then got another round of scolding from him. Only after obtaining their promise that they would seek help from adults in the future did he let the two go.
In the space, ZhiXia vented her frustration about the whole situation to Pei Jing in lively expressions that made Pei Jing's heart ache endlessly.
"Alright, the punishment and scolding is over. Little Sixth also knows his mistakes. Don't get yourself so angry that you make yourself sick over this. It's not worth it."
"I know it's not worth it. I'm just terrified afterwards. These kids are too impulsive. Even without telling adults or his brothers, Little Sixth followed PingAn straight to their door to demand an explanation. Can you blame others for framing them?" ZhiXia said, "If not for them being my own children, I would have to say they deserved it no matter who else it was."
ZhiXia did not know how things were handled between Pei JianGuo and Liu Chunhua, but Pei JianGuo had been frequently seen running to hide in the back lately.
PingAn often took refuge over here, saying his dad kept coming over trying to talk to him, making him feel strangely uncomfortable.
Guo Momo had also come over several times from her side. PingAn didn't want to see her. Pei Yong used to frequently help speak up for Guo Momo, but he stopped interferring after this incident.
He could understand Guo Momo's desire to have a son, but he did not want to accept her trying to take PingAn away from his side.
Although PingAn was his grandson, after years of living together, he had also become Pei Yong's most cherished treasure. The two relied on each other and were inseparable, having long surpassed what others could replace.
