Gu Yiyi had forgotten about this, but it was not a big deal to her.

"It's okay. It's okay if we don't spread it to others. By the way, these books that mother gave you can't be spread to others either."

"If you want it, just copy it yourself. When you finish reading the book, you have to return it to me, you know?"

Dabao couldn't understand Gu Yiyi at this moment.

His voice became louder unconsciously, "Mother, this is a serious crime, you will die!"

Before Gu Yiyi could answer, a steady male voice came from the courtyard.

"Dabao, be careful what you say and do."

Shen Changfeng came slowly, walked into the main room, and bolted the door behind his back.

Dabao looked at him in confusion, "Dad, why are you here?"

"I haven't heard any movement from you in the courtyard for a long time. I was worried, so I went out to look for you."

Shen Changfeng saw a pile of books on the table through the cloth strips.

He was shocked inside. He had not read any of the books on the table.

Moreover, these books had strange shapes and incredibly fine paper. He had never seen such superb papermaking techniques.

Gu Yiyi pursed her lips, hesitating whether to tell him about the books.

He couldn't see it, so if he hid it, he should be able to hide it for a while.

While she was thinking, Shen Changfeng spoke.

"Dabao, what kind of book is that book you are holding in your hand? Why does it have a dragon-shaped pattern on it?"

Dabao looked at the book in his hand carefully and answered with some uncertainty: "It is a book called "Five Thousand Years". It tells a lot about the emperor and the significance of the dragon to the country and the nation."

Shen Changfeng was slightly stunned, but quickly reacted.

In a serious tone, he said, "Listen to your mother, don't spread these books to other people, but you must read these books."

Dabao's eyes widened: "Dad, why?"

Shen Changfeng could not directly tell him that in order to take revenge, he had to bring down the emperor. This was treason.

He could only say euphemistically: "The pure will self-purify. Books are innocent. Things are useful. Even if you risk the world's disapproval, you still have to learn what you need to learn. Everyone says that learning martial arts will hurt people, so you don't Have you learned it?"

Dabao was confused, his little head couldn't accept so much information at the same time.

Gu Yiyi sighed, she was too anxious.

She gently touched Dabao's head and said softly: "Dabao, my mother can't help you and forgets that you are still a six-year-old child."

Shen Changfeng didn't think there was anything wrong, "It's better to let him understand this early. I have already entered the officialdom at the age of fifteen, and all the principles I understand are gained at a disadvantage."

Gu Yiyi was slightly surprised, "No wonder Dabao said he wanted the people to live a good life, so you also want to send him to officialdom?"

Shen Changfeng frowned slightly, "This is a responsibility that he cannot evade. It doesn't mean that I have to do this."

Gu Yiyi said no more because she remembered something.

Seeing that there were four people in the room, and three of them felt uncomfortable, Erbao's soft and waxy voice broke the awkward atmosphere between them.

"Mother, you haven't said which books are for the second treasure. The second treasure wants to read them."

Gu Yiyi glanced at the books on the table and hesitated.

She knelt down, looked at Erbao at eye level, and asked her seriously and softly: "Mother will not force you, does Erbao really like you? If Erbao doesn't agree with mother's views like Dabao, mother will also I won’t be angry.”

Erbao smiled sweetly, "No, I really like it. Erbao will do whatever my mother says."

At first glance, these words were very comforting, but Gu Yiyi did not want the children to be puppets.

A murderous puppet who, like her before, had to obey and couldn't show the slightest hint of disloyalty.

She asked softly: "Then why does Erbao listen to what mother says so much?"

Erbao didn't answer immediately this time, his round eyes blinked, thinking.

Neither Gu Yiyi nor Shen Changfeng made a sound to disturb them and waited quietly.

Erbao glanced at Dabao, who lowered his eyes, and then at Shen Changfeng.

His little hands unconsciously grasped the corners of his clothes and squeezed them, seeming to muster up a lot of courage.

"Because Erbao thinks that mother is right. She just said that millions of beggars can't compare to Dabao. I think so too. If one day I have to choose to save Dabao alone or thousands of beggars, I will choose Dabao. .”

After speaking carefully, Erbao asked anxiously: "Would it be selfish for me to do this?"

"Someone once said that it is selfish to not care about the life and death of others. You should leave good things and opportunities to live to others. Only in this way can you be a child that others will like."

Gu Yiyi and Shen Changfeng were both stunned.

She realized belatedly that Erbao must have suffered a lot outside if he could think like this.

Gu Yiyi's voice was choked with sobs. She shook her head slowly and held Erbao tightly in her arms.

"No, the second baby is very good. Mother likes the second baby very much. Those who say those words are pathetic people who are not liked by others."

Erbao didn't know why she felt aggrieved. Her eyes were red. She had a lot to say, but she couldn't say it all at once.

In the end, it just turned into a word: "Mother."

Shen Changfeng had a complicated expression. It was all his fault. If it weren't for his inability to protect his brother and sister, the three children would not have suffered so much.

They all lived a life of fine clothing and food. Dabao and Erbao were homeless for three or four years, and Sambo was exiled for almost a year.

He couldn't even imagine how such a young child could get here outside.

Gu Yiyi collected her thoughts and put Dabao into her arms for a hug.

"Today we, the three of us, have made peace with each other. If we encounter something like this in the future, even if the other party will be angry, we still have to talk to each other, you know? Because we are a family, and a family should not have any barriers."

Erbao nodded in a muffled voice. Dabao understood some things and some things he didn't.

He came out of Gu Yiyi's arms with shame on his face, "Mother, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled at you just now."

Gu Yiyi asked him to raise his head and look at her.

Dabao didn't dare to look at her at first, but then he became cruel and felt that even if his mother complained about him, she would admit it.

When he closed his eyes and opened them again, he saw a pair of warm and peaceful eyes.

There seemed to be something magical in those eyes, which calmed his restless mood.

Gu Yiyi's eyebrows were filled with tenderness, and she had no intention of blaming Dabao.

"Dabao is doing it for mother's own good. Mother doesn't blame Dabao. Mother will pay attention to it in the future and try to make it clear to Dabao. Let's take it slow, okay?"

Dabao relaxed all over and no longer dwelled on what had just happened.

"Okay, mother."

Shen Changfeng looked at Gu Yiyi, who was teaching her children carefully, and felt that she had a different kind of charm that made him unable to take his eyes away.

This woman shocked the world every time she took out something, and her ideas always coincided with his.

He couldn't help it, always wanting to explore the other person.

It's not the kind of understanding that lingers on the surface, but the kind of feeling that you want to become a close friend with the other person.

No, a confidant is not enough, he is more greedy.

He hoped that Gu Yiyi could always stay with him and his children.
