"It'd better be that way, if you have even a sliver of bad intentions, see if I don't beat you to death!"
"..." Ruan Jianguo, that's his own daughter! And he is her father!
The way she spoke, it was as if he was an outsider.
However, her words served as a reminder for the Ruanlin Family. She wasn't greedy for that bit of food, she just wanted her obedient granddaughter to be well, and with that thought, she said, "Tonight, instruct those kids not to take the obedient girl to the back mountain anymore. If they do, I'll break their legs!"
"Okay." Ruan Jianguo nodded, for now, that was all he could do.
He wasn't afraid of ghosts, nor did he pray to any gods, as long as his daughter was doing well, and looking forward to the day he would bring Shu Jiao back, the family could live peacefully.
