"Ouch! It hurts so much! Stop! Did you hear me!" Mo Lu rolled around on the ground, trying to avoid the willow branches, but it was all in vain.
"Lu'er, Lu'er, how are you?"
"Young Miss, please spare Lu'er! He's still just a child!"
"It's all my fault. I didn't teach him well. If you want to blame someone, blame me. He can't take a beating!"
...
Hearing Mo Lu's screams, Gao Pan'er rushed over, pounding on the door frame and pleading incessantly.
"Mother, don't beg her, she's just an old witch!" Mo Lu replied as he rolled around in the water.
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
Mo Qian was only focused on hitting people and ignored all other sounds.
He pumped it twenty times in a row before stopping.
"Do you know you were wrong?" Mo Qian asked coldly.
"I did nothing wrong!" Mo Lu looked at Mo Qian with eyes full of hatred.
"Lu'er, quickly tell me you're wrong! You're not listening to your mother!" Gao Pan'er kept knocking on the door and windows from outside, her voice filled with anxiety.
"Very good!" Before Mo Lu could beg for mercy, Mo Qian slapped him a few times.
"Mother, I'm listening, I was wrong... I was wrong, I won't do it again," Mo Lu pleaded loudly.
"What did you do wrong?" Mo Qian put away the willow branches and asked him coldly.
"My mistake was not calling her 'elder sister,' which showed a lack of manners and led me to speak recklessly," Mo Lu sobbed softly.
"You should have admitted your mistake earlier. Dujuan, go find someone to take a look at him. Don't let people misunderstand that I wouldn't even prescribe him some medicine." Mo Qian tossed the willow branch to Dujuan, sat back down in her chair, and poured herself a cup of tea.
"Yes, Miss. I'll go find someone right away." After hearing Mo Qian's instructions, Du Juan opened the door from the inside, and Gao Pan'er took the opportunity to come in as well.
"Lu'er, Lu'er, does it hurt? It's all my fault. The young lady punished me, but it was because I did something wrong. You're still so young, how can you be so silly? You even went against the young lady."
As soon as Gao Pan'er entered the room, she ran to Mo Lu's side and checked Mo Lu's condition with her hands. When she saw that his clothes were torn and there were white marks on his exposed skin, her voice was full of heartache.
"Mother, I'm fine, don't cry." Mo Lu winced in pain, but didn't forget to comfort Gao Pan'er.
"Okay, okay, Mother, don't cry."
"Miss, Lu'er knows he was wrong, please forgive him this time." Gao Pan'er looked up at Mo Qian and pleaded.
"Alright, I hope you will abide by the rules of the Mo family and behave properly in the future. I have already reprimanded you, so I will let it go this time. If you do it again, you will be punished twice as severely!"
"Take Lu Ge'er downstairs. You don't need to stand in the corner as punishment. Just hand over a 10,000-word letter of repentance later, and this matter will be over and forgotten."
“Although our Mo family has some property, we cannot waste food. You should know that there are still many people who don’t have enough to eat.”
"You should go down and clean yourself up too. You're covered in soup. If people see you, they'll think I'm bullying you."
"You may leave," Mo Qian said sternly.
"Yes, Miss, I won't do it again next time."
"Goodbye, elder sister."
Gao Pan'er helped Mo Lu, who was lying on the ground, to her feet and slowly walked towards the door. Her face was timid, and she looked meek and submissive, but her fingertips were white.
