To make He Yu regret - Chapter 19

Xu Meiyin took Jiang Mingzhen back to her room, but she was unhappy. He Yu didn’t apologize to her yet! The last time he offended her, he said that she looked like a ghost. In the end, he helped her pick the bear and said sorry to her. It took a long time before she forgave him.

This time, it was more serious than the last time! Jiang Mingzhen stopped crying and calmed down, she felt that she hadn’t performed well.

“He Yu made my hand hurt. Moreover, he uses his marker every day. He uses it many times. I just used it to draw a couple of strokes. If there was no ink from the start, how could it be that I used it badly? Obviously he…”

“Jiang Mingzhen!” Xu Meiyin lowered her face and called her name very seriously.

“Humph.” Jiang Mingzhen’s mouth was pouted high enough to hang a soy sauce bottle.

“If your marker was broken by someone, how will you feel?”

She answered in her natural way, “I don’t care. I have a lot of markers anyway.” Xu Meiyin sighed and wanted to give a more appropriate example, “What if your favorite toy was broken by others?”

“I would tell him to pay me. If he doesn’t pay, I would ask you to buy another one that is exactly the same one as before.”

Jiang Mingzhen grew up in a wealthy family. She had parents who spoiled her and she had never suffered before. It was difficult for her to think from He Yu’s perspective. There was no similarity between his life and hers. Fortunately, Xu Meiyin had the patience to teach her.

“If I don’t agree to buy it for you. You would never have the exact same toy again. What would you do?” Jiang Mingzhen stubbornly refused to let go, “Then I’ll ask Dad.”

“What I’m saying is, if your father and I couldn’t buy anything for you one day, you won’t be able to get back your favorite toy. What would you do?” Her mother tried to put Jiang Mingzhen in He Yu’s position to let her understand why He Yu cried. Jiang Mingzhen wasn’t stupid, she could hear what her mother meant, but if she admitted that He Yu did nothing wrong, then the one who did it would become her.

“You will buy it for me.” To reason with her was like playing the Qin in front of the cow. In the past, Xu Meiyin would have given up preaching at that moment. She felt that the child was just young and stubborn, and it would not be too late to tell her when she gets older. But when she looked at her six-year-old daughter, she felt that perhaps it was too late to teach her.

Since when did her daughter become so unlovable. “You made a very serious mistake today.” She gave up the method of letting her find the mistakes by herself. Xu Meiyin pointed it out directly.

“First, you took other people’s things and didn’t tell them in advance. Second, it was a marker that is very important to He Yu, and you broke it. Third, you didn’t apologize to him after breaking it. You wept, made trouble, and even blamed him for making fuss.”

Jiang Mingzhen didn’t understand, “Why can’t I take He Yu’s things?” Xu Meiyin asked her back, “Why can you take it? Haven’t I taught you that before borrowing something from someone, you have to ask them first?”

Yes. Jiang Mingzhen would ask. If that person was her classmate she would definitely tell him or her in advance if she borrowed something but the person was He Yu, so Jiang Mingzhen didn’t inform in advance. She snatched things from him and it became a habit. From the moment He Yu obediently surrendered his sweet potato to her, the last boundary between “him” and “her” disappeared, and his things were equivalent to hers.

“Okay,” Jiang Mingzhen admitted, “I did a little bit wrong.”

“More than a little bit, I told you it is a serious mistake. His marker was given to him by his father. Do you know… He Yu’s father is no longer in this world.”

“Ah? Where did he go?” She asked naively, completely unaware of the weight.

Qin, ch’in also called guqin (Chinese “ancient zither”) or qixianqin (Chinese “seven-stringed zither”), fretless Chinese board zither with seven strings
