Luo Cheng's Directness
Editor: Henyee Translations
When Mao Dao brought back his old clothes, Zhao Xiu had already set up a pot in the backyard and finished boiling a large pot of hot water.
Because he was a boy, Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao helped shower him.
Li Xiaoran went to sell buns at Yuan Cheng's place.
After the child finished showering and appeared in front of everyone again, everyone felt a sense of pity.
The child was pitifully scrawny.
What was even more infuriating was that the child had some scars and bruises.
"Who beat you up?" Qian Yu asked angrily.
"The children of the village and the Zhu family!" the child said softly.
"Does your mother know?"
The child shook his head and said, "I can take it. My mother will be sad if I tell her. Anyway, nothing can be changed even if she finds out, so let's not upset her!"
Sensible children often suffered the most.
However, sensible children were often the most pitiful.
