Before Ruan Lin's bamboo stick fell down, her eyes turned red.

Ruan Lin's hand holding the bamboo stick paused for a moment, but she was still cruel and knocked the bamboo stick down hard.

Ruan Jiaojiao closed her eyes subconsciously and shrank her shoulders.

But after waiting for a long time, I didn't feel any pain in my hand. I thought Ruan Lin was not beaten, but when I opened my eyes, I saw a pair of hands on my little hand.

Xu Xu's hands were attached less than a few centimeters away from her hands. When the bamboo sticks fell, he caught them all, without any of them falling on her little hands.

"Brother Xu..." She looked at Xu Xu with tearful eyes.

Xu Xu looked at Ruan Lin.

Ruan Lin actually never thought about beating Xu Xu. After all, she was not her biological child. Even if she was nice to him and talked about it, she never thought about beating him like her own son.

Now seeing him protecting Ruan Jiaojiao, her heart felt warm.

But the words are still the same.

Today's matter has touched her bottom line. She still has to fight what should be beaten. She pushed Xu Xu's hand away and fell again. This time without Xu Xu's protection, Ruan Jiaojiao's white and tender little palms Several red marks appeared immediately.

The bamboo strips were tough and slender, and felt burning in the palm of my hand.

Feeling aggrieved, physically aching, and already frightened, Ruan Jiaojiao couldn't hold it back. As soon as Ruan Lin took back her hand, her tears fell down.

Even though he didn't cry loudly, the pitiful appearance of crying made everyone feel more distressed than crying loudly.

Ruan Lin was also very distressed, but this matter really couldn't end like this. She had to teach them a lesson, otherwise what would happen if they went to play in the water again in the future? She is afraid of water!

Ruan Lin couldn't bear the pain of losing her, so she could only let herself feel distressed now.

She slapped her a few more times, and when she saw that her little palms were almost covered with red marks, she threw away the bamboo stick in her hand, not daring to look at Ruan Jiaojiao's tear-filled face, and said in a suppressed voice: "You all stand still and kneel for me. You are not allowed to move until dark. Also, you are not allowed to eat at night!"

After that, he went back to the back room.

Outside, Ruan Jiaojiao was cradling her little palms, feeling sore and spicy, and kept sobbing. This made several brothers feel very distressed, but no one dared to disobey Ruan Lin, so they could only show their distress with their eyes. Look at Ruan Jiaojiao.

Eleven people stood there from 4pm to 6pm.

The sun was about to set. Ruan Lin came out of the kitchen and saw Xu Xiao standing at the door of his house, watching.

Ruan Lin walked up suspiciously and saw two familiar buckets in his hands. She asked in surprise: "Xiao Xiao, what are you doing?"

"Grandma Ruan, this is your bucket. It was left by the river. I helped you get it back." Xu Xiao said, while struggling to bring in two buckets filled with fish from the outside: "The ones inside I didn’t touch the fish, so I brought them all back for you.”

The fish plus the bucket weighed more than 20 kilograms. Although he had gained a lot of strength from doing farm work, the two buckets still took a lot of effort from him.

In fact, he could have asked other children to help, but out of some selfish mentality, he did not do so. Instead, he spent almost two hours carrying it back bit by bit.

Ruan Lin knew at a glance that the bucket was not light. It was very difficult for a child under ten years old to carry it back. She didn't know what to say.
