But the people around pretended not to see anything and just stared at Xu Xi who fell into the water and Erbao who was about to fall in.
Erbao was too eager to rescue Xu Xi and her foot slipped. She immediately closed her eyes in fear, thinking she was going to die. However, a pair of big hands pulled her up.
"Godmother!"
As soon as Erbao saw the person in front of him, Gu Yuanniang immediately took out a stick beside her and pulled Xu Xi out, and put her own coat on Xu Xi: "Go back to the carriage first, and go back with Xiaobao first, don't catch a cold."
Xu Xi was trembling with fear. When he heard what Gu Yuanniang said, he immediately nodded and left.
"Godmother, they bullied..."
“Pah—”
Before Erbao could react, Gu Yuanniang had already slapped Erbao in the face.
The little girl had never seen such a scene before. Her eyes were red from being beaten. She looked at Gu Yuanniang aggrievedly and muttered softly, "It was obviously them who bullied me..."
"That's enough, Erbao, go apologize to that little girl."
Hearing this, the mother and daughter opposite became even more arrogant and looked at Erbao with pride.
No matter how aggrieved he felt, Erbao walked up to the two of them with his head down and said sorry.
"What are you talking about? I can't hear you clearly."
With someone's support, the young lady who had taken the first action became even more fearless and smiled smugly at Erbao.
"Erbao, do you know you are wrong?"
Gu Yuan's mother walked up and stood in front of Erbao to educate her.
Erbao nodded aggrievedly: "I know."
"What's wrong?"
Gu Yuan's mother was merciless and pressed Erbao everywhere.
Being scolded in front of so many people, Erbao was naturally a little ashamed and lowered his head: "I shouldn't have said that to others, and I caused Sister Xiaoxi to fall into the water."
"No."
Gu Yuanniang listened to her words, fixed her eyes on the person in front of her and immediately said, "You are wrong because you are too soft-hearted. If someone scolds you, do you just throw mud at her?"
Hearing what Gu Yuan's mother said, Erbao widened his eyes in shock, not knowing what was going on.
Gu Yuanniang pressed on step by step, forcing the woman in front of her to retreat again and again: "Madam, my child has no grudge against you, but your daughter insulted you. Is family background so important? We have been tolerant of you again and again, but you can bully us."
"You, what are you doing? My master is a wealthy businessman in Bai County, a well-known figure. Where did this bitch come from? Get out of here!"
Gu Yuanniang ignored her words, but just smiled and pushed the woman in front of her. The woman lost her balance and fell directly into the pond.
The pond was not very deep, especially for people who were born near a river, so it would not be a big deal. Although the woman kept splashing in the pond, she was not in any danger.
"Listen carefully. If I see you bullying my sister and child like this in Bai County again, I won't just push you into the pond today!"
Gu Yuan's mother stood up and clapped her hands in disdain. The young lady next to her saw her wife being pushed into the river, and immediately said in fear: "You, what are you doing to my mother? I'm going to tell my father, just wait."
"Young lady, let me teach you a few words out of kindness. It is better to be honest and upright. If you rely on your family's few stinky money to be so arrogant and look down on others, you will suffer. Erbao, let's go!"
"Um."
At this time, Erbao had no idea what had just happened and hurriedly followed Gu Yuan's mother and left.
As soon as the carriage stopped at the gate of the mansion, Song Weiwei was seen taking her things and preparing to go over.
The competition was about to begin, but Xu Miaomiao had forgotten the gloves she had made for them at home, so Song Weiwei came back specially to get them, but she only saw Gu Yuan's mother walking back with a stern face, and Erbao was following behind her with his head hung.
"What's going on? Aren't you going to participate in the lotus picking competition?"
"snort!"
Gu Yuanniang snorted coldly and walked away from Song Weiwei. Song Weiwei didn't react and looked at Erbao. Erbao also sighed and followed Gu Yuanniang.
Before Xu Miaomiao could react, Gu Yuan's mother called her to the living room, and Erbao was kneeling in the living room.
When Xu Miaomiao saw this as soon as she came in, she was still a little confused: "What happened?"
Xu Nianmiao in his arms was also very scared and suddenly started crying.
Gu Yuanniang's anger was still hard to dissipate. If she hadn't been worried today and had gone over there to take a look on the way, who knows what the result would have been.
Seeing that Gu Yuan's mother was very angry, Xu Miaomiao looked at Erbao and said, "Did you make your godmother angry? What happened today?"
"Mother, I didn't, they were the first to do it..."
Erbao pouted in grievance, but Xu Miaomiao still didn't understand. Erbao has always been sensible, and Liu Niang is also a kind mother. Usually, she is the one who teaches the child, and Liu Niang should say nice things beside him. What on earth could have made Liu Niang angry?
Xu Miaomiao sat down aside and watched the scene in front of her with great interest. It was rare to see Gu Yuan's mother so angry, so she had to take a good look at it.
Seeing that neither of them was willing to talk more, Gu Xumiaomiao couldn't sit still anymore: "Hey, Liu Niang, you'd better come back. Nian Miao has become heavier these days. You can hold him for a while."
"ah?"
Before Gu Yuan's mother could react, Xu Nianmiao was stuffed into her arms. Xu Miaomiao took the opportunity to quickly pull Erbao away.
Erbao still lowered his head and spoke in a coquettish voice. Seeing this, Xu Miaomiao took the initiative to speak: "Okay, what's the matter? Tell mother."
After listening to Erbao telling her everything that happened today, Xu Miaomiao finally understood why Gu Yuan's mother was angry. If she were at the scene, she would probably have to teach Erbao a lesson.
"Mother, is my godmother angry that I didn't protect Sister Xu Xi today? Will she dislike me from now on?"
"No."
Xu Miaomiao touched Erbao's head and comforted her, "You are so small, and the lotus pond is so deep, and you risked your life to save Xu Xi. You didn't care about your own life. Those people on the shore clearly wanted to laugh at you, but you really did it. Why didn't you ask a few adults to go? You don't care about your own life like this. Of course, your godmother will be angry if she sees you. If it's your mother, of course she will be angry too."
"So, godmother is angry that I went to rescue people alone."
"Of course, it was that little girl who started it. What if you go back? I'm afraid your godmother is afraid of you and won't fight back hard."
Xu Miaomiao comforted the little girl in front of her. She couldn't imagine what would happen if Erbao also fell in. She would definitely be very angry.
