The family gathered together for dinner. Zhao Jiaojiao had great difficulty eating and didn't eat much. Even the meat that she usually ate was not something she had much appetite for.
I must stay away from Ling Yunrui from now on. He is too scary.
Zhao Jiaojiao wants to join the army. Wouldn’t it be better to stay away from these people?
"Sister, I'll help you back to the house."
Tudan and Zhao Lingling supported Zhao Jiaojiao and walked towards her room step by step.
Accountant Zhao watched this scene from behind. "Zhao Jiaojiao, if you dare to go out before the busy farming season, I'll break your legs."
Zhao Jiaojiao shuddered and looked back at her father in disbelief.
"father......"
"You can give it a try. You're lucky enough to survive today, but what about next time? Do you want me and your mother to pick you up?"
Wang Meili wanted to persuade him, but she stopped when she heard what Dongzi's father said.
I barely escaped this time, but what about next time?
It's only been a few months and there have been several near-accidents.
"I didn't." Zhao Jiaojiao looked pale and weak. She really didn't expect to encounter a wild boar, and this wild boar only chased her. She even suspected that the wild boar was also a bully and was afraid of the strong. It chased her because it thought she was easy to bully.
But she didn't dare to refute at this time because her father was still angry.
Tudan and Zhao Lingling looked at each other and quickly helped his sister back to the house.
"Tudan, come here."
Tudan's whole body tensed up. He knew exactly what his father was going to do.
I dare not not go.
Sure enough, within a short while, he felt pain in his buttocks. His father didn't let him cry out, and tears welled up in his eyes due to the pain.
Zhao Lingling took a quick look at the scene where her second brother was beaten, and sneaked back into the house.
"Sister, my second brother got beaten."
Zhao Jiaojiao was lying on the bed, fanning herself. When she heard what Zhao Lingling said, she paused, "Did Tudan get beaten?"
Why didn't I hear any crying?
"When my eldest and second brothers were beaten, Dad wouldn't let them cry. If they cried, Dad would beat them even harder." Zhao Lingling said in a low voice.
But in the family, it was usually the second brother who got beaten more.
Zhao Jiaojiao really didn't know about this.
"I was the one who went into the mountains today. You and Tudan were implicated by me."
"Sister, it's okay. Second brother is thick-skinned. He will be fine in two days." Zhao Lingling said with the tone of an experienced person.
The corners of Zhao Jiaojiao's mouth twitched violently a few times. Her skin was thick, so it still hurt when she was hit.
Wang Meili washed the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen. When she came out, she saw that her youngest son's eyes were slightly red.
"Dad Dongzi, they went into the mountains to pick Ganoderma lucidum and Gastrodia elata. Do you want to send some to Mom and Dad?" Accountant Zhao is still the one who makes the decisions on some matters at home.
"Ganoderma lucidum, Gastrodia elata?"
Although Accountant Zhao rarely goes into the mountains nowadays, he used to go there often when he was young. If he was hungry, he would go into the mountains to find food.
"Take a look..."
Accountant Zhao looked at the Gastrodia elata and Ganoderma lucidum that were drying in the sun and said, "No need, just dry them and keep them." These things are very rare. Even when Da Hu went into the mountains to collect some common medicinal herbs, he rarely collected these things.
Some children in the village don’t know these medicinal herbs at all.
Even some adults don't recognize these medicinal herbs.
In the afternoon, Accountant Zhao and Wang Meili went to work, and they had three children at home.
"Go check out the earthen eggs."
"Second brother, we're coming in." Tudan quickly pulled up his pants. Because of the pain in his buttocks, he didn't dare to lie flat and could only lie on the bed.
"Second brother, does it hurt?"
Tudan shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt. It will be fine tomorrow." In fact, it hurt a lot. This time his father used gravity.
