The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 695: Punishment

Translator: Vesper

Qing Yuan wanted to say something but was stopped by Qing Liu who was by his side. They were in the wrong in this matter, it was right that Uncle Ren punished them. Xiao Ran had committed a taboo, they had no right to question the punishment she would be facing.

”Uncle Ren, we’ll be heading down,” Qing Huai did not look at Xiao Ran’s pleading gaze, he only looked at Xiao Ren and said solemnly.

”En.”

Xiao Ran only felt fearful after the three of them left, all these while, she had three older brothers spoiling her, no matter what troubles she caused, they would help her out. But this time, Xiao Ran realized even they were unable to help her.

”Uncle Ren, I know I’m in the wrong, please forgive me,” Xiao Ran was a smart person, she knew when to submit to fate.

A man knows when to be flexible, not to mention towards a young girl like her.

Xiao Ren looked at Xiao Ran who kept blinking her eyes, he sighed in his heart. Until this very moment, this child was still putting up an act in front of him. How could he feel at ease allowing such a person to be by the young miss?

”Men, take her away and punish her by the book,” Xiao Ran said cruelly, which were heartless words to Xiao Ran.

”Uncle Ren, you can’t treat me like this, I know I’m in the wrong,” If Xiao Ran was not feeling afraid earlier, but she was terrified now.

What did punish by the book mean? Nobody was clearer than Xiao Ran, none of the people who entered would return alive.

Even a man could not hold up in that place, she didn’t think she was stronger than a man.

Xiao Ren looked coldly at Xiao Ran: “You should already know the consequences before you committed such a mistake.”

If everyone committed a major mistake and resolved it by admitting their faults, what’s the point of having punishments? It would simply be a joke.

Xiao Ran’s bitter pleading did not cause Xiao Ren to have any change of heart, he was rejoicing instead, rejoicing the young miss did not allow her by her side. Or else, based on her current performance, if she were captured when the time comes, wouldn’t she betray the young miss in an instant in order to survive?

Thinking about such a possibility, Xiao Ren’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness. No matter who it was, they were not allowed to harm the young miss.

In the end, Xiao Ran was taken away by the others, even if she suffered an extremely painful punishment, she had to hang on. She was sure Xiao Ming would come back to search for her and rescue her.

But even when her body had reached her limits and she was unable to continue bearing the pain, Xiao Ming did not appear in front of her, it was as if this person never existed.

After Qing Huai and the others received their own punishment, they went to take a look at Xiao Ran. When they saw her dying look, they couldn’t help but turn their heads. Xiao Ran made her own choice, she could not blame others for it.

It was not known whether Xiao Ran knew they were outside: “Elder brother, I know I’m in the wrong, I won’t dare to do it again, please save me.”

Qing Huai shook his head, he turned around and left.

Qing Liu glanced at Xiao Ran, he then followed behind Qing Huai and left. Only Qing Yuan stood there alone.

Qing Yuan felt tangled looking at Qing Huai and Qing Liu’s back figures, he then looked at Xiao Ran pleading and crying inside the torture room. In the end, he also left.

He was aware, if they really pleaded on behalf of Xiao Ran, they would not be sure of Xiao Ran’s outcome in the end.

Xiao Ran stared dully at the door, there was nobody there, Qing Huai and the others appearing earlier seemed to be just an accident.

Heh heh, was she abandoned by the others?

The people who had said to treat her well their whole lives no longer wanted her, even her elder brothers were unwilling to be bothered with her. All of it was that woman’s fault, if not for her appearance, everything would not turn this way.

Uncle Ren would not punish her like this, her older brothers would not alienate her.

After Xiao Ming left, he was filled with hatred towards Xiao Ren. With a sinister appearance, he really wished he could swallow him whole.
