Madam Lu's philtrum was pinched until it broke skin by Zhou Dajun before she finally opened her eyes, staring at the cobwebs on the roof beam; it took her half a day to come to her senses.
It wasn't until a faint cry of "Mother" reached her ears that she shuddered all over, flipping over to sit up with a swoosh, and instantly turned to look towards Zhou Dajun.
Zhou Dajun was frightened by her fierce expression, his heart shivering as he weakly called out, "Mother?"
Only then did Madam Lu remember what he had just said; he said he tore his aunt's clothes, he meant to dishonor his aunt, that widow?
"Have you lost your mind, you brainless fool, I think you must have eaten feces, why on earth would you mess with your aunt? She's your aunt, you maniac!" Madam Lu struck him randomly across his head and face without any rhyme or reason.
At the doorway, Zhou Xiuer was ashen-faced, slumped on the ground, dazedly watching her mother hitting her brother.
