"Mom, you don't need to go."
Song Lan hadn't managed to persuade Song Qinghui and Song Guoqing yet, and well, she hadn't managed to persuade Qin Boyan either. Now she had to persuade Li Jumei. She said, "Although Song Jiaojiao barked at me like a mad dog a few times, I didn't suffer any losses."
"Little sister, what do you mean by that?"
Song Qingbin asked.
“I slapped her four times across the face.”
Song Lan's tone was nonchalant. Upon hearing her words, Song Sanhe and his wife, the three Song brothers, and Qin Boyan were all taken aback. Then, Song Qinghui spoke up: "That's it?"
“I have a strong hand. After four big slaps, you can imagine what will happen to her.”
Song Lan's bright eyes were full of smiles: "If I don't stop you now, then I want to ask, when you go to Song Jiaojiao, how will you deal with her? Will you curse her a few times, or will you slap her a few times like I did? Or will you kick her to the ground?"
The main room was unusually quiet.
Yes, even if they find the educated youth compound, what can they do to Song Jiaojiao?
At most, as my daughter (younger sister, older sister, sister-in-law) said, they would either curse a few times, slap a few times, or kick the other person. But... but would they really be able to hit Song Jiaojiao or kick her?
It's not that I can't bear to do it, it's just that it's too beneath me.
In that case, all we can do is hurl a few curses!
Li Jumei sighed, looking at Song Lan with eyes full of guilt and self-blame: "Lanlan, in the end it's my and your father's fault. It's our fault for not raising that brat properly!"
In the eyes of many in the village, she was a shrew who would curse and hit anyone when she argued and never suffer a loss. However, although she had cursed her children, she had never laid a finger on them.
If she had actually gone to find Song Jiaojiao just now and seen that brat, she would definitely have cursed some nasty things out of anger, but as for tearing the other girl's mouth apart, she might not have been able to do it.
After her thoughts had wandered to this point, Li Jumei spoke again: "It's Mom who's sorry..."
Song Lan interrupted her: "Mom, what are you saying? Some people are inherently bad. Although Song Jiaojiao was raised by you and Dad, she is still someone else's child. You can raise my older brothers and younger brothers well, but Song Jiaojiao is an exception. It is clear that there is nothing wrong with your parenting methods."
Qin Boyan: "Auntie, my sister-in-law is right. What Song Jiaojiao is like has nothing to do with you or my uncle. It's because she herself is wicked."
"Little sister, if Song Jiaojiao dares to say anything nonsense in front of you again, I'll take her straight to the town police station and let the officers there teach her a lesson. After all, engaging in feudal superstition and cursing others is considered disrupting social harmony, and the officers at the police station will definitely take care of it!"
Hearing Song Qingbin say this, Song Qinghui objected: "Brother, are you sure the police station will handle this? If you ask me, Song Jiaojiao should be given a lesson she'll never forget."
After a brief pause, he continued, "I've already thought it all out. When she's alone, I'll have a friend put a sack over her head, then punch and kick her to warn her not to mess with my sister, or she'll be beating up every few days!"
Song Guoqing asked doubtfully, "Second Brother, aren't you afraid that Song Jiaojiao will suspect you for doing this?"
"If I didn't say anything, how would she know I hit her? Even if she suspects it and comes to my door, even if she reports it to the police station, what evidence do I have?" Song Qinghui leaned against the wall, arms crossed, legs shaking, pursing his lips, looking completely unconvinced.
"Second brother, you're so smart!"
Song Guoqing praised it.
"Silly boy, this is what you call smart. It seems you're still too naive. You'll have a lot to learn in the future!"
Song Qinghui was being modest, but he was actually quite pleased with himself. His eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly, showing that he was happy to be praised by his younger brother!
"I think my second brother is quite happy that I praised you."
Upon hearing Song Guoqing's words, Song Qinghui's expression froze, and he thought to himself: "You brat, what a blunt truth you're spouting!"
He couldn't help but steal glances at Song Lan and the others, and seeing that everyone's expressions were relatively normal, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Little did they know that Song Lan and the others were all suppressing their laughter, so as not to make him uncomfortable.
"Second Brother Song, I agree with what you're doing. If I don't have to go to school tomorrow, I'll stay here and help you cover Song Jiaojiao with a sack."
Qin Boyan suddenly said something.
However, before Song Qinghui could respond, Song Lan gave him a sidelong glance: "Second brother, don't start a commotion."
As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Song Qinghui: "Second brother, it's nothing for us to say, but I don't want you to do such a thing. And as I just said, Song Jiaojiao didn't gain any advantage over me."
Without hesitation, Song Qinghui replied, "You don't need to worry about it. Your second brother knows what he's doing." Anyone who dares to bully his sister will be dealt with severely if given the chance!
“Dad, Mom, Song Jiaojiao is very scheming. I don’t want anyone in our family to suffer anything bad because of her. So, you must not let Second Brother do as he pleases.”
Seeing that Song Qinghui didn't take her words seriously, Song Lan couldn't help but give Song Sanhe and his wife some advice.
Li Jumei: "Don't worry, your second brother won't do anything reckless." As long as her second brother can keep things discreet and not leave any evidence for others, she doesn't mind teaching that brat a lesson.
Although Song Sanhe did not speak, he nodded to Song Lan after Li Jumei finished speaking, clearly agreeing with what Li Jumei said.
“Little sister, your second brother may seem a bit reckless, but he always plans things carefully when he’s out and about. Just like Mom said, he wouldn’t do anything without thinking.”
This was Song Qingbin's voice. Hearing this, Song Lan felt a little relieved, but she still couldn't help but say to Song Qinghui, "Second brother, if a mad dog bites us, we can't bite back. I know you're angry and want to vent your anger for me, but in my heart, I only wish for my family to be safe and well. That's better than anything else."
Furthermore, given Song Jiaojiao's character, if we ignore her, she'll eventually suffer a major setback. We'll just wait and see! She's full of ulterior motives, loves to compete for the top, can't speak properly, and is spoiled and arrogant. When she runs into trouble, someone will take care of her!
"...Second brother knows."
When Song Qinghui met Song Lan's serious gaze, he pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment before finally making a compromise.
Well, whether this compromise is real or not, at least he has made his stance clear.
Whether Song Jiaojiao can escape being covered by a burlap sack depends on whether Song Qinghui intends to carry it out.
The family sat in the main room and chatted for a while. Song Lan then called Song Qinghui to the kitchen to boil a pot of water. After pouring the hot water into the wooden bath tub, she placed the herbal pack for strengthening muscles and bones inside.
After testing the water temperature, he called Song Qinghui to start his medicinal bath.
Does it hurt?
"It doesn't hurt, it's just a little itchy."
"This is just the beginning. After a while, you will feel a pain like being pricked with needles. It will hurt even more as time goes on. You have to endure it, otherwise, all your efforts will be in vain."
