Mama Zhao continued to slam on the door and called out for them, Lady Su cried out from outside: “Brother Ning, open the door, we can always talk it out. Brother Yu is still young, even if he did something wrong, just teach him patiently, don’t hit him.”
“Brother Yu is your biological brother. Ever since he was a child, Lady Qin and the old marquess didn’t even dare to lay a finger on him, how could you bear to let anyone beat him.”
“Open the door!”
Upon hearing this, Qin Zeyu felt even more aggrieved, but when he looked up, he saw Qin Jiu smirk. He snorted and turned his face away, he didn’t want Qin Jiu to laugh at him!
Qin Zening walked towards the door and opened the door. He placed one hand on the door frame and said, “Second aunt, please leave.”
“Brother Yu......” Lady Su looked into the room and tried to push him inside. However, Qin Zening didn’t even budge, as if he was nailed to the ground, Lady Su couldn’t push him away at all.
Her expression turned pale, she angrily raised her arm and banged on the door twice.
However, Qin Zening no longer paid any attention to her, Qin Zeyu couldn’t help but glance towards the direction of the door, but he didn’t want to be weak in front of Qin Jiu. He pursed his lips, but still didn’t say a word.
Qin Jiu walked up to him and asked, “Does it hurt?”
Qin Zeyu turned his head away, his eyes were red as he felt wronged.
How could it not hurt? He was in so much pain that he was on the verge of crying!
Men shouldn’t shed their tears easily, he was already twelve years old, if he cries, he’ll definitely be laughed at!
Qin Jiu rolled up her sleeves, and on her fair and slender arms, scars covered the whole of her arm and the mere sight was shocking to see.
She smiled and asked, “Was I in pain?”
Qin Zeyu was stunned, his eyes widened slightly, he looked at her scarred arms and her face again, his mouth gasped in shock as he couldn’t muster a word for quite some time.
“For as long as I could remember, I was beaten every other day. After being beaten, even if I couldn’t get up from the pain, I still had to clean the house, chop the firewoods, cook meals, and wash the clothes......”
