Bai Yao picked a handful of beautiful flowers and lowered her head to smell them.
"It smells so good! Make it into a garland and give it to my mother. She will definitely like it!"
She found a place she liked, sat down, and began to weave the wreath in earnest.
Her small hands carefully knitted the small flowers together, for fear of accidentally breaking the flowers.
Just when she was a third of the way through, several tall shadows suddenly blocked the light.
Bai Yao raised her head, recognized the other party, and immediately closed the upturned corners of her mouth.
They are a few seven or eight-year-old boys in the village, and they often bully their three brothers and sisters.
The leader is the six-year-old twins of the Bai family, Bai Xiuwen and Bai Xiuwu.
The two of them put their hands on their hips and looked at Bai Yao with disdain.
"Look, this little slave is being manipulated by the stepmother again!"
"It seems that your stepmother has arranged a light job for you today!"
Bai Yao pouted her mouth and looked at the two of them boredly.
"Yao Yao is not a slave! Mother is very good to us, you are not allowed to talk about mother!"
Bai Xiuwen was very unhappy with Bai Yao's attitude and trampled the neatly arranged flowers beside Bai Yao to pieces.
"We are your cousins, and you actually defend an outsider? You ungrateful bastard is just uneducated!"
"Why are you stepping on my little flower?" Bai Yao stood up and tried to stop her before it was too late, tears welling up in her distressed eyes.
"I can step on it if I want! Your broken flowers have soiled my shoes, please clean them for me!" Bai Xiuwen stretched out his feet in front of Bai Yao.
Bai Xiuwu snatched the unfinished wreath from Bai Yao's hand, threw it out, raised one foot and put it in Bai Yao's arms.
"I want to shine my shoes too!"
When the other children heard this, they burst out laughing and echoed.
"Yes, yes, after the little slave has polished the shoes of your two brothers, he will also polish our shoes!"
"Can this little slave be wiped clean?"
"If you can't wipe it clean, beat her until it's clean!"
"What a good idea. Those two brats Bai Hao and Bai Chen have embarrassed our boss a lot before. Today we will take it out on their sister and let them know the consequences of offending us!"
"That's right!"
Bai Xiuwen and Bai Xiuwu have always been the leaders of this group of children. When they heard that their brothers were fighting for them, they became angry.
"Brothers are right, let this little slave repay the face we have lost today!"
Bai Xiuwu shouted again, "Hurry up and clean our shoes!"
Bai Yao trembled with fright, but refused to show her fear.
She followed her elder brother's example, straightened her back, put her little hands behind her back, and shouted.
"You bad guys, go away! I'm not afraid of you!"
It was this shout that was heard by Su Mujin by the river.
Seeing that Bai Yao refused to give in, Bai Xiuwen and his group started beating her without saying a word.
Bai Yao knew that he couldn't beat them, nor could he run away from them. This beating was inevitable, so he knelt on the ground and curled up with his head in his hands.
Although the children's fists were not big, they hit Bai Yao's thin body like a heavy rain, and it was very painful!
Bai Yao was so painful that she burst into tears!
Su Mujin, who hurried over from the river, was furious when she saw this.
"What are you doing? Stop it!"
The children seemed not to hear what Su Muxin said and continued to punch and kick Bai Yao.
Su Muzhen ran over quickly, pushed the children away, and picked up Bai Yao with distressed eyes.
While asking, he checked Bai Yao's body.
"Yao Yao, don't be afraid, mother is here! Are you injured anywhere?"
When Bai Yao saw her relatives, she could no longer suppress her tears of grievance, pursed her lips, and burst into tears.
"Mother, Yaoyao doesn't feel hurt, it's just...it's just that they broke the wreath that Yaoyao planned to give to mother!"
It turned out that Bai Yao was worried that Xiao Huahua would be destroyed again, so she kept holding her tightly in her arms.
Looking at the sensible little man in his arms, Su Muxin felt a sore nose and held Bai Yao tightly in his arms.
"Good boy, the garland is not as important as you. If it breaks, it will break!"
"Mother..." Bai Yao's little head hid in the crook of Su Muzhen's neck and kept sobbing.
After comforting Bai Yao, Su Muxin locked his eyes on the little brats who bullied Bai Yao.
Bai Xiuwen and Bai Xiuwu turned a blind eye to Su Muxin's anger.
He also reprimanded in a commanding tone: "Our shoes are dirty, please let this little bitch Bai Yao clean our shoes!"
They gloated and waited to see Su Mujin teach Bai Yao a lesson.
In the past, when encountering this kind of situation, Su Mujin would beat Bai Hao's brother and sister without any hesitation.
Then listen to them obediently and satisfy their various unreasonable requests.
But Su Mujin didn't do that today.
That look in his eyes seemed like he wanted to eat them alive.
Bai Xiuwen and Bai Xiuwu looked a little guilty.
Bai Xiuwu bravely took a step forward.
"Didn't you hear what my brother said? Are you deaf? If you don't obey me again, I will ask your grandma to expel you from Lao Bai's house and sell you to a brothel!"
Su Mujin's micron eyes were cold and cold.
"You are so vicious at such a young age. You are really spoiled by the old house. Since the old house can't manage the children well, then I will work hard today to discipline you!"
Su Muxin gently put Bai Yao on the ground, grabbed Bai Xiuwen and Bai Xiuwu's collars with both hands, and lifted them up.
Before the brothers could react, their feet were already off the ground.
Only then did they fully realize that the woman bought by the old Bai family was different.
They slapped Su Muxin's arms desperately and scolded her.
"What do you want, you bitch?"
"Let us go!"
Su Mujin asked in a deep voice: "Do you still dare to bully Bai Yao in the future?"
"You little bitch who has a mother but no mother deserves to be bullied!"
"Yes, we will bully her, not only her, but also Bai Hao and Bai Chen! They are not good people!"
The twins are hopeless!
But facing such a bad boy, Su Muxin will not show mercy.
"Okay! If you have a tough talk, don't blame me for being rude!"
She strode to the river and stretched her arms out to the water.
Bai Xiuwen and Bai Xiuwu's bodies soared above the rushing river. They were so frightened that they cried loudly and hurriedly called for help.
"Come and save us!"
The other children didn't dare to step forward, they were so frightened that they fled in all directions.
I thought to myself: I don’t dare to provoke this crazy woman like Su Muxin in the future, otherwise I might die.
Bai Xiuwen shouted: "Don't run, help us!"
Su Mujin sneered, "This kind of virtue is the same as that of your damn mother. It's disgusting to look at it!"
"Don't you bitch call my mother!"
"I'm going to tell my mother to take care of you!"
"Oh, are you still so stubborn?"
Su Muxin stretched her arm toward the river again and began to slowly loosen her fingers.
The twins felt their bodies slowly sliding down. They were so frightened that they hugged Su Muzhen's wrist tightly. They kept kicking their legs, trying to climb up Su Muzhen's arm, but they couldn't reach it.
"Don't let go!"
"Don't throw us into the river, we will die!"
Then, the smell of urine came from under the two of them.
Su Muxin realized that they were really scared and pressed them.
"I ask you again, do you still dare to bully my children in the future?"
