Zhao Shijian didn't know what kind of snake bit Ye Song, let alone whether the snake's venom would disappear when the poisonous blood was squeezed out. Since Zhao Shichu said that, he believed it.
Seeing that his sister denied his rebirth, he did not ask any more questions. He just patted Zhao Shichu on the shoulder and said sincerely: "Don't be afraid, sister. No matter whether what Wen Yishu said is true or not, I will not follow her." If she has anything to do with her, you don’t have to worry that she will cause trouble for you.”
Zhao Shichu nodded: "I'm not afraid. Life is what people live. She pesters us with things that no one can prove. No one will believe her even if she tells her."
After a while, she suddenly smiled and asked Zhao Shijian: "Brother, if Wen Yishu is really reborn, do you really want to let go of your eldest nephew?"
"What's the reluctance to give up? Didn't you hear what I said to her just now? Since I fulfilled my responsibilities as a father in my previous life and made him live a good life, then I have a clear conscience and will not force him to continue to be me in this life. son.
Besides, no matter how much Wen Yishu praises him, I don’t have any special feelings now. After all, he is just a non-existent person to me now. I can’t endure my nausea for a son who only exists in legends. When I was with Wen Yishu, I was not so selfless, sacrificing my marriage and my lifelong happiness for an illusory son. "Zhao Shijian said this sincerely.
When Zhao Shichu heard what he said, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'm relieved. I was worried that you would force yourself to make do with Wen Yishu for the sake of your son. I don't want to live with such a person."
"No, don't worry blindly." Zhao Shijian assured again and again.
After the brother and sister talked about it, they didn't say anything more about this matter. But Wen Yishu, who didn't know if it was because she exposed her rebirth and abandonment of her husband and son in her previous life in front of Zhao Shijian, felt very guilty and went to the court. While working, I saw Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian. They both lowered their heads and left in a hurry, as if they had no shame in meeting them.
After all, she still has a bit of shame. Before Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian didn't know that she had wronged them, she could still approach and please Zhao Shijian with peace of mind, and even called it a prodigal son turning back to make amends; After revealing her true identity, how could she still have the nerve to see them? Still have to hide in shame?
It's just that he doesn't know how long his shame will last. After all, no matter how much shame he has in the face of heavy physical labor day after day, it will be worn away over time.
Because Ye Song was bitten by a snake, the captain asked him to rest for a few days until the injury on his foot healed before he could continue to herd cattle.

On this day, he waited for a long time on the hillside where the cattle were grazing, and then he saw a slender figure slowly walking up from the bottom of the mountain. When the person came closer, he shouted happily: "Miss Zhao !”
Zhao Shichu looked up and saw that it was Ye Song. He was a little surprised, but he still walked faster. When he got in front of him, he looked at his face and said, "Uncle Ye, you look a lot more energetic."
Ye Song chuckled and said, "Maybe it's because I've been resting for a few days. Are you here to cut pigweed again? I cut some before, you can take it back." As he spoke, he looked towards a pair of recently cut haystacks not far away. Point to go.
Zhao Shichu immediately understood that he was cutting pig grass for him, so he felt a little sorry and said to him: "Uncle, you don't have to cut it for me. You have to look after the cows. How can I bother you."
"It doesn't matter. I cut it while I was watching the cow. It won't be a problem." Ye Song said, then he took out a small bag from his arms and opened it carefully. Inside it was a woman with a delicate dial but with some scratches. style watch.
He handed the watch to Zhao Shichu and said, "It's useless for me to keep this watch with me. You can take it. You can still check the time every day."
Zhao Shichu was startled, took a step back, waved his hand and refused, saying, "Uncle Ye, this watch is not cheap at first glance. How can I accept such an expensive gift from you?"
"Why is it so valuable? It's just an old thing. Didn't you see there are scratches on it? It's worthless." Ye Song said nonchalantly, wanting Zhao Shichu to accept the watch.
"Uncle, if it was really not valuable, you wouldn't have kept it so tightly. You didn't even think about exchanging it for food when you were in such a difficult situation. It shows that it is very important to you, and it must be very important. Was it left to you by someone important?" Zhao Shichu had long seen the nostalgia and tenderness in his eyes when he looked at this watch.
Ye Song heard her words and sighed softly. He took the watch back and rubbed it gently with his hand. After a long time, he said: "This is the watch that my wife has worn for many years. She is gone long ago. I am also I don’t know how long I can live. If I die, I don’t know where this watch will end up... I don’t want the things my wife likes to end up in a bad state, so I want to give it to you before I die. , at least you will treat it well..."
As soon as he said these words, Zhao Shichu suddenly didn't know what to say. Indeed, according to Wen Yishu's memory in his previous life, Ye Song was bitten to death by a snake a few days ago. He definitely didn't know where these relics would end up. ? Although this watch is old, it seems to be valuable, so it will probably be taken away by the person who handles his belongings after his death, and then it will really disappear.
It was normal for Ye Song to find a reliable owner who could treat his wife's relics well. After all, he really didn't know when he would die suddenly and whether he would have a chance to leave his last words.
But... Zhao Shichu remembered what he said that day when he thought he was going to die, and he had a flash of inspiration and said: "Uncle Ye, didn't you say you still have a son? Can't you just leave this watch to your son?"
Ye Song was not as optimistic as she was, saying: "My son is also having a hard time now. I can't see him, and it's not safe to send letters. How can I give him the watch? What's more, if this watch is seen by someone, I don't know. What trouble will happen again... It's you, I believe you won't reveal anything you shouldn't reveal."
Ye Song looked at Zhao Shichu steadily with his old but gentle eyes, then solemnly handed the watch to her and said, "My child, just accept it. If you feel uneasy, give me some." Food so you don’t have to feel like you owe me anything.”
Zhao Shichu saw that he insisted on giving it to her, so she had to accept it temporarily, but she decided to return the watch to him on the day he was picked up by his son.
Presumably he will be happy to take back his wife's belongings by then.
