Chapter 142: The Dirty Land Has Many Living Things

Shen Shuhan looked at her with a gentle gaze and said softly, "Who said I don't want to do it."

Shen Shuyi remained silent and did not say a word. His eyes fell on the part of his wrist that was exposed from his sleeve. Because he was so thin, his wrist looked even thinner than a woman's, and it seemed that there was only a layer of skin covering the bones.

The most eye-catching thing is the scar on the wrist.

Obviously, when my brother was seriously injured and became a disabled person, it was not because he fell off his horse as rumored by the outside world, but because his tendons in his hands and feet were cut.

Shen Shuyi couldn't imagine how big of a blow that would be to Shen Shuhan at that time.

Shen Shuyi did not ask what happened that year, because she knew that her brother would not tell her even if she asked. What's more, even if she knew now, she probably would not be able to avenge him.

Shen Shuhan raised his eyes to look at the moon outside the window and said slowly: "Shuyi, I was wrong before."

Shen Shuyi looked at him, not knowing what to say.

Shen Shuhan laughed at himself: "Brother failed to protect you, but instead asked you to worry about me and plan carefully."

"I am willing to do this. You are my only brother in this world, and you deserve it more than anyone else."

Shen Shuyi often wondered, if she had been able to save her brother earlier in her previous life, would he not have died later, and would she not have been fooled in the end.

In her previous life, she was able to make all kinds of plans for Xiao Tingshan, so why couldn't she do it for Shen Shuhan?

"It's just... I'm afraid the path I want to take is different from my brother's." Shen Shuyi was not afraid of anything else, but was afraid that he didn't like the way he did things.

In other words, even if Shen Shuhan really went with her, Shen Shuyi didn't know whether she should be happy or not.

In her heart, her brother was a truly upright person, but now she had dragged him into the dark. She didn't know whether this was a blessing or a curse, and whether she should...

Seeing what she was thinking, Shen Shuhan said softly: "Shuyi, don't think so much. I am not as good as you think. Everything I have experienced is fate. Brother has his own way."

Shen Shuyi didn't want to get stuck in a rut. After all, for someone who had died once, nothing was more important than being alive.

Even if Shen Shuhan turns against her one day in the future, she will not regret the decision she made today.

"Brother will protect you from now on." Shen Shuhan said in a gentle voice.

He should have done so long ago, but he insisted on being stubborn, causing pain to his loved ones and joy to his enemies.

In the end, you have to fight for justice in this world by yourself!

Shen Shuyi didn't refuse. She smiled with her eyes bent, and rubbed his arm affectionately: "Okay."

For her, nothing would make her happier than seeing Shen Shuhan cheer up.

After learning Shen Shuhan's plan, Shen Jingchuan went back overnight to make arrangements and deployments. After all, the Chai family would come again in three days.

Qin Xuerong was still worried. Shen Jingchuan had no intention of telling her about his plans for the time being, so Qin Xuerong was still worried about the money.

After all, this amount of money is not a small sum. After she takes it out, her life will be tight, not to mention that she will have to buy some for her children in the future.

Shen Shuyi seemed to know nothing about this and had a rare good sleep.

The next day, early in the morning.

Shen Shuyi arrived at the Shen family's school early. The Shen family's school was jointly funded by the two families. It was called a school, but because the two families had many children, they gathered the children together and invited different teachers to give lessons.

In the morning, boys and girls alike study elementary education together, focusing on the basic classics, history, and literature.

In the afternoon, boys and girls are taught separately, with boys focusing on the six arts of a gentleman and girls focusing on morality, speech, work and appearance.

When Shen Shuyi arrived, the master had not yet arrived, and the main room seemed a little deserted because of the absence of Shen Jingan, Shen Jingyu and Shen Jinglin. But Shen Jingchuan had many children, so Shen Meiru, Shen Qinghuan and others were all there.

What surprised Shen Shuyi was that Shen Jinglin, who had just been beaten a few days ago, was now lying on the table with a lack of interest. It was obvious that his house arrest did not include classes.

"Second sister~"

As soon as she saw Shen Shuyi, Shen Meiru spoke first, obviously with some joy.

"Fifth sister." Shen Shuyi smiled back.

Shen Qinghuan said, "Second sister, please sit over here. This seat used to belong to Second Brother, but it has been vacant since Second Brother went to the Imperial College."

"Thank you." After Shen Shuyi sat down, he prepared his books and patiently looked around.

Soon, Shen Meiru came over and whispered, "Second sister, I heard that you were there when the Chai family came yesterday. What happened?"

Shen Shuyi observed the girl in front of him calmly, and said slowly: "I'm not very clear about the details, but the young master of the Chai family was seriously injured, and it seems to be related to my second brother."

Shen Meiru rolled her eyes, sizing up Shen Shuyi's expression as she said, "I don't know what's going on lately. Things in our Shen Mansion have been happening one after another, which is really giving Father and Mother a headache."

Shen Shuyi curled his lips and responded, "It is indeed a turbulent time."

Shen Meiru smiled at Shen Shuyi in a friendly way, but also with a bit of worry: "The most pitiful one is the third sister. In this case, I'm afraid it will be hard to say about her future marriage..."

Shen Qinghuan laughed and said, "Why are you worrying about these things at such a young age? Are you afraid that your mother won't arrange it for her?"

Shen Meiru blushed a little and said softly, "Who made me rank behind my third sister? My aunt is not favored, so I am always worried about whether my future marriage will be..."

As she spoke, Shen Meiru lowered her eyes, seeming to be quite worried about her future.

Shen Qinghuan laughed and said, "Girl, you're so old and yet you're already anxious about getting married. If people find out, they'll laugh at you to death!"

"Fourth sister!" Shen Meiru stomped her feet with some anger.

Shen Shuyi just smiled and said nothing.

Not long after, the teacher arrived. The teacher was a man in his forties. He had passed the imperial examination in his early years, but was later dismissed from his official position due to bad luck. He was then invited to the Shen Mansion to be a teacher.

Seeing Shen Shuyi, the man didn't ask much and continued teaching as usual.

After listening to one class, Shen Shuyi had a basic understanding of what he was talking about. Although the man was knowledgeable, he was conservative and too pedantic. All his content was really boring to listen to.

In addition, the children in the Shen family were of different ages, so what the man said was quite superficial, and it didn't have much effect on Shen Shuyi.

Thinking of this, Shen Shuyi couldn't help but hold her cheeks with her hands and stared in the direction of Shen Jinglin in a daze.

In her previous life, she fell victim to Qin Xuerong's schemes several times as soon as she returned home, and she was unable to enter the school in the Shen Mansion until she got married.

To her, the school in the Shen Mansion seemed to be a place that was out of reach. Without this opportunity, she read books, taught herself, and asked others for advice like crazy.

Now that time has passed and I am really sitting here, I realize that some of the things I once dreamed of are nothing special.

But before Shen Shuyi could think more, Mr. Chen stood in front of Shen Shuyi and said in a deep voice: "The dirtier the land, the more living things there are, while the clearer the water, the less fish there are. What do you think of this, Miss?"
