CHAPTER 89: CHAPTER 89: YUAN SHOUGUI: I WILL MAKE THEM SEE ME DIFFERENTLY

"Uncle, anything else?"

Yuan Shougui, who was stopped by Yuan Yindi, paused, his expression awkward and his eyes evasive.

"Come over and apologize to Jiaojiao!"

Yuan Yindi wouldn’t tolerate the bad habits of this big nephew.

He seemed like such a good kid before, so why’s he been so out of line recently?

Looking at Yuan Shougui, who was clearly not quite right, Yuan Yindi pondered whether to have a good talk with his big brother later. A young tree not pruned doesn’t grow straight; a child needs discipline, but after a beating, reasoning is also necessary.

"Jiaojiao, big cousin was wrong, I shouldn’t have lost my temper with you, please don’t blame me!"

Under his uncle’s stern gaze, Yuan Shougui could only begrudgingly apologize to Yuan Bao.

Seeing his big cousin looking so aggrieved and fidgety, Yuan Bao waved his chubby hands and said, "Big cousin, don’t say that. I know you got scolded by Uncle and are feeling upset. I don’t blame you!"

See, how considerate I am!

After Yuan Bao spoke like a little grown-up, he indeed received his uncle’s praise.

"Yuan Shougui, look at you. You’re almost thirteen after this New Year, about to get married, yet you still don’t understand things as well as your little cousin!"

"From now on, think more before you speak and act."

"We’re all family, would we harm you?"

"Uncle, I got it!"

What could Yuan Shougui say?

Facing his uncle’s lecture, if he dared to talk back, he’d definitely get into trouble.

A real man knows when to bend and stretch, endure a moment of calm, and step back for a broader view.

In the future, when he marries Xue’er, he’ll make everyone see him differently.

"You better really understand it!"

Seeing the slightly perfunctory look in his big nephew’s eyes, Yuan Yindi didn’t say much more. As an uncle, sometimes all he needs to do is drop a hint.

After all, he’s merely an uncle.

Yuan Shougui finally managed to get away, limping out the door, his silhouette looking quite forlorn.

"Uncle, where do you think big cousin is going?"

Yuan Bao looked at Yuan Shougui, still injured, walking out, feeling that this outing seemed different from usual.

"Why not, let’s follow and take a look?"

Yuan Yindi winked at his niece.

"Uncle, isn’t this not right?"

Yuan Bao was tempted but felt that this kind of peeking behavior was a bit underhanded.

"Why wouldn’t it be right?"

"We’re doing this out of concern for your big cousin!"

"He’s still injured. What if something happens to him outside? We should quietly follow, so we’re ready to help if needed, don’t you think that’s reasonable?"

"Mm, mm, Uncle, you’re right!"

Such a refreshing and unconventional reason, how could Yuan Bao disagree?

With that, the two left the courtyard.

However, they only lingered in the courtyard a bit longer, and now they couldn’t see where Yuan Shougui had gone.

"Uncle, big cousin is gone!"

Yuan Bao looked around but never found any trace of Yuan Shougui.

Yuan Yindi picked up Yuan Bao, walking briskly forward, glancing left and right as they rounded the corner.

Still no sign of Yuan Shougui.

How could someone with an unhealed butt, limping out the door, just vanish in the blink of an eye? Is that reasonable?

The answer is, of course, no!

"Uncle, could big cousin have gone to find that bad woman again?"

That bad woman, naturally referring to Sheng Xueyi from the neighboring village!
