"You know you were wrong?"
"Wrong."
"Where did you rub it?"
"Take lives?"
Ruan Qian neither confirmed nor denied it.
Ruan Qian softened his stance and returned to his room to sit down.
Seeing Ruan Meng rubbing her knees, Ruan Qian glanced to the side and gestured for her to sit down.
Ruan Meng had been as careful as possible; aside from her own people, even if others suspected her, they wouldn't be able to find any evidence. As for Zheng Gou and his mother...
Furthermore, there is no way to verify it.
It's all because my eldest brother and Brother Fan are too amazing!
She couldn't hide it anymore. Although she had a glimmer of hope, she didn't expect her older brother to guess so quickly!
Seeing that her older brother remained silent, Ruan Meng felt compelled to speak out:
"Brother, perhaps you think I'm ruthless, but..."
"With the owner of Xinglintang backing him up, Manager Du has money and manpower at his disposal. How could he be bullied like this?"
"Brother, do you remember when we first arrived on the South Island and went into town to buy medicine and wild boar, we were bullied by thugs? Sometimes, when dealing with scoundrels, fists are more effective than reason?"
“A jackal that is fed with money will always be chased and torn apart. Manager Du is a living example.”
"If it had been any later, to put it more seriously, Manager Du's daughter would have followed in Ah Chun's footsteps."
"Manager Du has always been very kind to our family. If it weren't for him, we probably could have sold the medicinal herbs and even gotten medicine for my older brother, but it was always a hassle of haggling over the price..."
"Moreover, Manager Du has helped us by having Jiqing intervene several times. It's not just about the medicinal herbs; they're like friends to us. I can't ignore his situation."
"If you say I've done something wrong, I'll definitely correct it. Just please teach me, is there any better way...?"
"As for Granny Liu's nephew, he doesn't deserve my trouble to find a more proper way to die!"
"Even if there are many doubts, he has no evidence!"
"Furthermore, I'm going to show him what I'm capable of, and then I'll sabotage him behind his back. That'll be the fate of Granny Liu's nephew!"
After Ruan Meng finished speaking aggressively, Ruan Qian looked up and realized that his younger sister was indeed very different from before.
The same face, once slow and soft, now resembles a little lion, fierce and majestic. If anyone dares to offend her, she will not hesitate to pounce and bite their throat.
His former sister evoked feelings of pity and affection, but the one he had now seemed more like the one he had been hoping for—someone who resonated with him.
Although my father was a civil official and censor, his stubbornness was no less than that of a military general.
Despite his physical limitations, he was decisive and ruthless, and possessed an exceptionally resilient character.
The younger sister seems to be the balance between her father, him, and her brothers.
The second child is gentle and patient, the third child is courageous but lacks patience, but the younger sister is not reckless, she is courageous and decisive. Who would have thought that she was just now clinging to her own leg and acting cute?
Intelligent children are more likely to take detours, and Ruan Meng felt an even greater responsibility.
His sister may not need his corrections, but he needs to be more attentive to her and protect her.
Considering that these two major events were something that the entire Fengjia Village and Manager Du's family could not control, she actually did them quietly, not for her own sake.
Ruan Qian found it hard to reprimand her for such integrity and righteousness. He was just angry that she had taken on such a heavy responsibility, and that a slight misstep could have cost him his life, and yet she hadn't told him that.
Ruan Qian's eyes showed some heartache; his sister hadn't had a single day off in the days since she started dealing with the bullying by officials stationed at the mine...
Finally, she softened her tone, "Big brother's angry? It's such a big deal, and you didn't even discuss it with us. What if something happens..."
My brothers want to take the blame for me?
Ruan Meng looked up and immediately saw through her brother's thoughts, but she didn't point it out.
She was quite certain that if her eldest brother were to plot against the master, endangering her, her second brother, and her third brother, he still wouldn't tell them...
Even though I think that way, I still need to be sincere in admitting my mistakes.
"Big brother, I was wrong."
Next time, I'll keep it a secret too!
No, it depends on the situation.
Ruan Qian said earnestly, "What my little sister has done is more responsible than many men. I agree with your original intention."
"Although what you did is unacceptable to the world, you have already done it, and there's nothing more your elder brother can say. But you should be able to understand your elder brother's concerns."
"In the future, if something similar happens again, you must not act first and then report it, and you must not hide it. If the same thing happened, wouldn't you be even more worried afterward?"
Ruan Meng nodded earnestly, looking completely attentive.
But in my heart I thought, I might never know if my elder brother made a move...
Therefore, he revealed many clues simply to intimidate all beings...
From now on, I should learn from my older brother and be even more meticulous.
Like her elder brother, he hoped she would be carefree, but since she was exiled to a deserted island, she was like fish on a chopping block, everyone wanted to slaughter her. She could only become stronger as soon as possible. If anyone dared to make a move, she would fight back and kill them. She wanted to see who would win!
She only hopes that her eldest brother can recover his health, that her sister-in-law can have an easier time and have her own children, and that her second and third brothers can get married and have children like everyone else. She will protect them!
Although she is young, her protective instincts are the same as her older brother's!
