Chapter 157 Turn your elbows outward
In fact, the reason why he was so persistent was because he learned that Lin Weimin had been bullied by many people during his low period.
The glory of the past was too dazzling, blocking the way for too many people. Therefore, when Lin Weimin was in trouble, there were many people who treated him coldly, retaliated against him, and even ridiculed him.
If it weren't for Pei Yu's secret protection and intervention, it is unknown whether Lin Weimin could have survived safely until now.
But Pei Yu said nothing about all this, so as not to appear arrogant.
After hearing this, Sheng Junwei was silent for a moment and then said softly: "If he is willing to lend a hand, I will definitely give him corresponding rewards to show my gratitude."
After he finished speaking, the carved wooden door seemed to sense the owner's intention and opened gently. Lin Weimin's face was filled with a warm smile like spring, and he stepped lightly over the threshold.
"As for the word reward, there is really no need to mention it. It is my honor and blessing to be able to help Madam Sheng solve her problems."
Sheng Junwei's lips curled up into a faint and elegant smile, "Mr. Lin, you can just call me Mr. Sheng, no need for too much etiquette."
Lin Weimin was slightly startled when he heard this, and turned his head, his eyes inadvertently meeting Pei Yu's.
Seeing that the other party frowned slightly, but did not say anything to stop him, he followed his intention and responded politely: "Yes, Mr. Sheng, I will call you that from now on."
At this moment, Sheng Junwei's gaze passed through the exquisite window lattice and fell on the scroll hanging on the wall.
Whether it is the delicate and exquisite brushstrokes or the profound and distant artistic conception, the paintings all demonstrate extraordinary artistic charm, which makes people admire and secretly admire the tenacity and indomitable vitality of the creator.
It is true that everything in the world has its own awe-inspiring aspects.
As a skilled doctor, Sheng Junwei knew very well that Wang Gou Wa was extremely weak due to long-term illness and urgently needed careful care.
So, she personally prescribed several medicinal food recipes, which not only took into account nourishment and taste, but also took into account the body's absorption capacity. She instructed the housekeeper Wu, who was an expert in cooking, to prepare them carefully to ensure that every meal could be transformed into nectar to nourish Wang Gou Wa's body and mind.
After several days of careful care, Wang Gou Wa's physical condition showed subtle changes.
Although he still looked a little thin, the gradually emerging color on his cheeks and the flicker of vitality in his eyes all indicated that he was gradually walking out of the haze and embracing the vitality of life again.
However, the will to survive in his heart, which was swallowed by despair, has almost been completely frozen by the vicissitudes of time.
In order to help Wang Gou Wa regain hope, Sheng Junwei seized the opportunity and cleverly arranged a meeting with Lin Weimin. There was no long speech, but just let him watch quietly as Lin Weimin held the pen in his mouth and painted vivid pictures with extraordinary perseverance.
This scene was undoubtedly a soul-shaking shock to Wang Gou Wa.
He once thought that losing his ability to work would mean a dull life, but he never expected that a man who lost both arms could still rely on his skills to support his family and even win people's respect and praise.
He was deeply moved by the scholar's perseverance and indomitable spirit. As a simple farmer, how could he give up so easily?
My thoughts drifted back to my old father, Old Man Wang, who was far away. His weather-beaten face looked even more haggard due to the years of pain of searching for his son.
Wang Gou Wa knew very well that if he continued to sink into such depravity, who would take care of his elderly father and give him a peaceful old age? Thinking that his father would still worry about him, he was filled with guilt and anxiety.
From then on, the despair on Wang Gou Wa's face gradually faded, and was replaced by a hint of desire for the future.
At first, he tried to stay alive just to avoid worrying his old father, but now, he began to think seriously about what else he could contribute to the world.
Although painting was not his forte, when Wang Gou Wa picked up a brush, he discovered that he had a talent for writing.
In addition, under the guidance of Miss Feng, he also had unique insights into the use of abacus. Although he could not remember those gorgeous poems and songs, in the world of numbers, he was like a fish in the sea. He calculated quickly and accurately and never made a mistake.
Upon learning of this, Si Qi discussed with Sheng Junwei and decided to let Li Le, who is good at abacus and bookkeeping, guide Wang Gou Wa to further improve his skills.
Once he completes his studies, Wang Gou Wa will be able to give full play to his strengths in "Shengqi Charity", not only helping others but also earning a salary sufficient to support himself.
Sheng Junwei quite agrees with this. She firmly believes in the principle of "teaching a man to fish" and believes that such good deeds are also accumulating blessings.
Old Man Wang and his son were extremely grateful for this favor, especially Old Man Wang, who took the initiative to offer his contribution to "Shengqi Charity" and insisted on not taking a penny.
How could Sheng Junwei accept the old man's unpaid labor? It happened that Chef Fang in the kitchen needed a skilled assistant, and Old Man Wang was good at the cooking skills of his hometown, so this kind of work was easy for him.
So, under Sheng Junwei's arrangement, Old Man Wang joined the kitchen and contributed to this big family.
In this way, in "Shengqi Charity", a big family full of love and warmth, the mental outlook of Zhang and his son has improved day by day. Coupled with nutritionally balanced meals, the two are not only full of energy, but their complexions are also becoming healthier and more rosy.
In this place full of hope, the future of the Wang family seems to be lit up, and a new chapter has been opened in the lives of the father and son.
"Sheng Qi Charity? Charity?"
On the edge of this prosperous and ancient capital, there is a small and elegant courtyard hidden, revealing an unknown story amidst the lush greenery.
In the center of the courtyard, beside a carved wooden table, Sheng Mingwu's fingers clenched unconsciously due to anger. With a "clang", the delicate porcelain cup broke into pieces under his heavy blow, and the fragments flew everywhere, as if it was the embodiment of the anger and unwillingness in his heart.
"This kind of ruthless person has caused our Sheng family to fall to this point, yet he still shamelessly claims that he is doing charity work!"
Upon hearing this, Sheng Mingfeng frowned, and a subtle worry crept into his heart.
He retorted softly: "Second brother, father's exile has nothing to do with Wei'er. You can't blame her for all the mistakes."
Although his voice was gentle and calm, it revealed a persistence that could not be ignored.
Sitting in the corner, Sheng Mingtao, who was originally immersed in his own thoughts, was also brought back to reality by this sudden dispute. His face flushed with indignation, and he looked at Sheng Mingwu firmly, with an unquestionable tone of defense: "Jun Wei is innocent, you have to believe her!"
"You two are quick to turn your elbows outward!"
Sheng Mingwu sneered with a hint of helplessness and irony, "Just because your father has lost power, do you want to turn to that heartless and ungrateful person and continue to live the carefree life of a young master?"
Sheng Mingfeng's expression suddenly became painful and hurt, as if he was deeply hurt by the misunderstanding of his relatives: "Second brother, how can you say that? We are a family and should share weal and woe. I just hope that we don't put the blame on Wei'er at will. It's unfair to her!"
