Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 890 Principles
Hearing Jian Liang talking about her mother, Tie Hongyan thought of Gu Weijian again and felt a little sad.

"So you have been through all this." Tie Hongyan said.

Jian Liang recalled the difficulties he had experienced and continued, "A long time ago, Elder Tian was not yet an elder of the Tiecang tribe. In fact, it was not easy to meet many people at that time, and it was also very difficult to do something. However, she never gave up and kept working hard until she finally became an elder of the Tiecang tribe. On the way to becoming a tribal elder, she always had principles and bottom lines. Sometimes she would rather suffer more than do things that would harm others. In fact, after she became an elder of the Tiecang tribe, we seemed to be one step closer to our goal. However, the children of elders may not necessarily become future patriarchs, so everything is still unknown. We cannot see the road ahead clearly, and we don’t know whether we can reach our destination. Even if we firmly believe that we can reach it, we don’t know how far we have to go to get there."

"So, later on, you gave up your principles and your bottom line?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Jian Liang said, "Alas! Many things are actually my fault. At first, I was just like her in sticking to principles and bottom lines, but later I was too worried that her hard work over the years would be in vain, so I had a crooked idea and used my own way to persuade her not to stop me from doing shady things. She is a person who sticks to principles and bottom lines and is very stubborn. She can't stand the people around her doing certain things, and it is basically impossible for ordinary people to persuade her to tolerate it. It seems that only my method of using softness to overcome hardness can convince her not to stop people around her from doing things that she thinks they shouldn't do. I think that with her stubborn personality, if she hadn't experienced the two things her parents did, she wouldn't have stopped them no matter who used what method. She will never give up her principles and bottom line. However, ever since the two things that happened to her parents, she has had a weakness. I always use the method of using softness to overcome hardness to tactfully poke her weakness, making her feel that being a good person, even a good person like her parents who have saved many people, may not necessarily bring good results. In fact, this is also my weakness. When I am worried that her years of hard work will be in vain, I will secretly poke my own weakness first, telling myself not to be too rigid, and that always talking about principles and bottom lines may not achieve the goal. At first, I persuaded myself first, and then persuaded her not to stop people around her from doing things. Later, I no longer had to work hard to persuade myself before persuading her, and she no longer needed me to say anything more. "

At this point, Jian Liang thought: Later, she could agree with me doing something excessive and think that the two children were inflexible, but I couldn't just tell the acting clan leader about it. It was obviously my problem, and I couldn't implicate her. Besides, even if she agreed with me doing something excessive, she would still reflect on it.

"Why did you send someone to poison me when I was injured?" Tie Hongyan had roughly guessed the reason and wanted to hear what he would say to her.

"Acting Patriarch, to be honest, I was extremely sad when I did this! Even at this moment, when I think back on it, my heart feels like it's being stabbed by thousands of needles! I'm so sorry, Acting Patriarch! Fortunately, this thing was not done. If you had made any mistake because of my confusion at that time, I would have suffered for the rest of my life!" Jian Liang said.
