Don't you dream about your parents when you're asleep at night?
Everyone's advocating for the destruction of the Four Olds now, so you can't talk about things like feeling guilty or being afraid of ghosts coming after you. Aunt Cheng only touched on the subject briefly.
"Xiaochun, who did this to you?" Song Yan asked again, wanting to help the poor child.
Ji Xiaochun pursed her lips, still remaining silent. Tears still welled in her eyes.
"Her brother hit her, what do you mean? You're trying to pin it on me?" Sun Lan said angrily. She was hit, but she didn't dare to fight back because everyone in the brigade was staring at her menacingly, as if they would beat her up if she made a move.
"Why did your brother hit you?" Li Yuanzhao asked.
Ji Xiaochun remained silent.
“Ji Dagang is your own sister, why did you hit him?” Sun Akun asked.
Song Yan grabbed Sun Dabao's shoulder and asked, "Tell me, why was Xiaochun beaten?"
Song Yan applied a little more force, and Sun Dabao felt a sharp pain! "It hurts! Let go! I'll talk!"
Sun Lan was about to speak when Song Yan released Sun Dabao, then grabbed Sun Lan's chin, silencing her.

"Let's not even talk about others, look at this guy in our brigade, is he even a man?"
"Alright, things are clear now. Sun Lan and her husband abused Ji Xiaochun. I'll go report this to the captain in a bit. Everyone, can you all go home?" Wang Wenjuan spoke up.
"Sister-in-law! There was no abuse. The child, if the child is not well-behaved, shouldn't we discipline him?" Ji Dagang was frightened at this moment.
"I'm always doing laundry and cooking, and I'm never full. I have to endure being beaten and scolded. Is that what you call being disobedient? Do you think I'm stupid?" Wang Wenjuan was quite angry.
“This is my family’s business. If any of you are meddling and think I’m treating her badly, then you can take Xiaochun away,” Sun Lan shouted.
