As they were talking, they arrived at the shop where Lianhua was. There weren't many customers at the moment. He Jiuniang went in but didn't see Lianhua and Xia Yulan. She asked the people inside and learned that they were in the backyard. He Jiuniang then took Lu Baichuan to the backyard.
"Ahhh, I won't do it again! Stop hitting me!"
"Waaah, I won't say anything like that again..."
Before you see him, you hear his voice.
He Jiuniang raised an eyebrow, sensing that there was going to be a good show.
"Keep up! Keep up!"
She said something to Lu Baichuan, then lifted her skirt and ran off.
Enjoying the melon seeds is the priority!
Lu Baichuan: ...
When He Jiuniang ran to the backyard, she saw Lianhua riding on a chubby little boy, punching him repeatedly without any mercy.
Xia Yulan, who was standing nearby, was very anxious and tried to mediate the fight, but she couldn't stop them at all, and she was so anxious that she burst into tears.
In addition, there was a little girl, about ten years old, hiding behind a pillar, her eyes red and swollen, too afraid to utter a sound.
He Jiuniang went there, but didn't say anything. She just stood there with her arms crossed, watching with a face full of admiration.
Lianhua has grown up and is no longer the delicate little girl she once was. Her powerful punches have won He Jiuniang's heart.
After Lianhua had had her fill of fun, she stood up. As if she had a premonition, she turned around and saw that her third uncle and aunt were watching her not far away. She blushed for a moment.
She seemed to have hit a little too hard just now...
"Third Uncle and Third Aunt, you're here! Hehe..."
Lotus reached out and touched her little head, smiling somewhat guiltily.
The chubby little boy on the ground saw someone coming and started crying loudly. He crawled to He Jiuniang's side, hugged her leg, and cried again.
"They bullied me, waaaaah, I want to go home! Waaaaah..."
The chubby boy looked heartbroken, crying with snot and tears streaming down his face. If He Jiuniang hadn't quickly lifted her skirt, the chubby boy might have used it to wipe his nose.
When Lianhua saw that he had complained first, she hurriedly said, "Auntie, that's not how it is. He was the one who mocked Yulan first. He always brought up Yulan's family affairs and made Yulan cry. He also kept saying that merchants are lowly, so I hit him!"
Upon hearing this, He Jiuniang swiftly pulled her leg out of the chubby boy's hand and said, "Well done."
The chubby boy was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at He Jiuniang. Didn't his mother say that He Jiuniang was a very good person? Why was she helping others bully him?
He was right. Xia Yulan was the daughter of that disgraced official Qian Xing. Even if she changed her surname, it didn't change the blood relationship!
Lianhua breathed a sigh of relief; she knew her aunt would help her.
At the same time, Xia Yulan also breathed a sigh of relief. She thought that He Jiuniang would blame Lianhua for offending Zhang Zicang for her sake.
The chubby boy had no idea what was going on. He had been beaten up and was in pain all over. No one in his family had ever dared to hit him before, but now he had been beaten by a little girl. He was furious, but he couldn't beat her. All he could think about was going home!
He struggled to his feet, glared angrily at the others, and said, "You've bullied me! I'm going home to tell my mother!"
As she spoke, she wiped away a tear, looking extremely aggrieved.
He Jiuniang looked at him and said, "You are the young master of the Zhang family, right? You probably don't know, but yesterday your mother was the first to tell me that she wanted to send you here for me to discipline. Now that you're here, this isn't a place where you can come and go as you please."
The chubby boy blinked in confusion. "Can't we walk anymore?"
"But my mother never said you would hit people!"
He Jiuniang curled her lips: "Then it's your mother's fault."
Little Chubby Boy: ...
He Jiuniang looked at him and said, "Since your mother sent you here, there are some things I have to make clear to you. First, you mentioned Yulan's family affairs, which have nothing to do with you. The one who made the mistake was her father, not her, and she has already severed ties with him. From now on, Master Qian's affairs have nothing to do with her. If you insist on holding onto this matter, then it won't be Lianhua who hits you, but your parents. Second, you said merchants are lowly. I am a merchant, so if you insult a merchant, you are insulting me. Go back and ask your mother what the consequences are for insulting me. Besides, your current status is just a errand boy in the shop, even lower than a merchant, understand?"
He Jiuniang spoke without any politeness. The chubby boy listened, pointed a short, thick finger at He Jiuniang, and couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Waaaaah, I want to go home! I want to tell my mom you bullied me, waaaaah..."
He started crying again, but He Jiuniang ignored him. She beckoned to the little girl behind the pillar, making the three girls stand in a row, and then said, "Remember this, there is no high or low status here. Once you're here, you must study hard and do your job well. If this happens again, Lianhua, don't hold back. Beat them even harder. After you're done, throw them back, and the Lu family will never have anything to do with their family again!"
The little girl with red eyes nodded repeatedly. She was still young and didn't dare to cause trouble. Although she felt wronged to be a waitress, she spent the whole day learning how to do things and trying not to get herself into trouble.
Especially when she saw Lianhua hitting the chubby boy, she hid on the side and didn't dare to say a word, afraid that she would be the next one to be hit.
Seeing He Jiuniang now, I think this lady is very beautiful, and her smile is also very lovely.
Although she was still young and couldn't fully understand He Jiuniang's meaning, she knew that this lady was not to be trifled with, and her palms were sweating after just a short while.
Xia Yulan's eyes were red, and tears fell as she nodded.
When her father had the accident, she knew that her future would not be easy and that she would definitely be bullied. She was somewhat prepared and thought that at worst she could just pretend she didn't hear it, since it wouldn't hurt her.
Unexpectedly, Lianhua would help teach Zhang Zicang a lesson, and He Jiuniang would also speak up for her. She cried not because she was bullied, but because she was moved.
Of the three girls, only Lianhua was all smiles; she only knew how good her third aunt was.
Hitting someone is wrong, but hitting Zhang Zicang was necessary.
"Thank you, Madam."
Xia Yulan was deeply moved and curtsied. He Jiuniang helped her up and pinched her cheek, saying, "Alright, it's nothing. From now on, you need to practice martial arts diligently with everyone. If you encounter a similar situation again this afternoon, you can fight back yourself, understand?"
She was somewhat shocked. No one had ever told her this before, and she herself felt it was inappropriate. But now, hearing He Jiuniang say this, she felt it made a lot of sense, so she nodded emphatically.
"Alright, it's about time. Pack your things and go home. We still need to pick up Youya and Xiaoyang."
When they have free time, it has become a habit for Lu Baichuan and I to walk to pick up the kids every day.
