After severing all ties with family and friends, the villain's entire family was filled with re

Chapter 53 One whip missing, the whip will be replaced.

Upon hearing the voice, Han Shu grasped at a straw, turned around, walked to Old Madam Qin, and knelt down.

"Mother, please save Lang'er and Yi'er! They've already been whipped ten times. Yi'er is still just a child and he can't take it anymore. Mother, please make them stop and save them!"

Granny Sun stepped forward and helped Han Shu up. "Madam, the old lady came here because she heard about what happened here and came to inquire. Madam, there's no need for this. If the punishment is unfair, the old lady will stop it herself."

Han Shu was overjoyed, for now the only person who could save Lang'er and Yi'er was the old lady.

Madam Qin continued forward.

The moment Qin Wan saw Old Madam Qin, her heart trembled. Her grandmother was in poor health, and if she were to frighten her grandmother and harm her health, she would truly be unfilial.

They've already received ten lashes; otherwise, it would have been fine.

Although Qin Wan was unwilling, she was willing to do so for her grandmother's sake.

Then, Old Madam Qin slowly stepped forward and walked up to Qin Wan.

"Wan'er, come in with me!"

After saying that, Madam Qin turned and went to the nearest side room.

Qin Wan followed closely behind. Although the punishment was suspended, no one dared to take any further action.

Inside the side room.

Without saying much, Madam Qin simply said, "Take off your clothes!"

Qin Wan instantly understood that her grandmother wanted to see her injuries, but her injuries were shocking, and she was afraid that her grandmother could not bear it, so she refused.

"Grandmother, Wan'er is alright!"

Old Madam Qin's voice trembled, "Hurry up!"

Tears welled up in Qin Wan's eyes as she took off her clothes one by one.

When her back was exposed and the scars were visible, Old Madam Qin's heart clenched painfully. Her trembling hand wanted to touch it, but fearing that it would hurt her beloved granddaughter, she hurriedly withdrew it.

How could they be so ruthless?

This is his own sister.

Granny Sun felt a pang of heartache; if the injuries continued to worsen, the old lady might not be able to bear it any longer.

He then helped Qin Wan put on her clothes.

Madam Qin wiped away a tear from the corner of her eye and said, "Wan'er, don't worry, Grandmother will take care of this for you!"

Qin Wan pouted, her back to Old Madam Qin, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Han Shu had seen the wounds earlier, and her first thought was that since she was already injured, why should they have to suffer again? She had no intention of standing up for herself.

But the grandmother wanted to make decisions for herself.

This warmed Qin Wan's heart.

After getting dressed, Qin Wan turned around, wiped away her tears, and smiled, also to avoid making Old Madam Qin so sad.

"Thank you, Grandmother. You're the best to Wan'er!"

Even a single glance from Madam Qin was enough to convey the despair she felt last night, let alone having experienced it firsthand.

Madam Qin noticed that Qin Wan's smile was forced, to avoid making her feel uncomfortable, since her eyes were red.

Madam Qin simply sighed and took Qin Wan's hand.

After leaving the side room.

Han Shu hurried over. She didn't know what the two of them had said inside, but Qin Lang and Qin Yi were, after all, the old lady's own grandsons. The old lady couldn't just stand by and watch them die!

Under the cold wind and whipping, Qin Yi had long since reached his limit.

Knowing that his grandmother always doted on him, he knelt down beside Old Madam Qin and cried out, "Grandmother, Yi'er knows he was wrong. Yi'er was bewitched and believed the words of a villain, almost harming Qin Wan. Yi'er swears that he will never do it again. Please, Grandmother, have pity on Yi'er and save Yi'er!"

Qin Lang simply knelt down to the side, enduring ten lashes without uttering a sound, a stark contrast to Qin Yi's current demeanor.

But Old Madam Qin took a step back and hid behind Qin Yi.

"When you beat your sister last night, did you ever think about sparing her life? Did you see the injuries on her body with your own eyes?"

Qin Wan bit her lip tightly, trying hard not to let her tears fall.

The implication of this statement is that they will not help.

Han Shu understood and knelt down as well.

"Mother, Lang'er and Yi'er have already received ten lashes. Those ten lashes were so deep they hit the flesh. They should be equivalent to Wan'er's seven blows. Please, for the sake of their service to you since they were little, save them!"

Han Shu almost kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Qin Wan couldn't bear to watch this scene any longer. If Han Shu had pleaded for her like this at the birthday banquet that day, she probably wouldn't have suffered that ordeal.

In Han Shu's heart, it seemed that she deserved everything she had suffered last night.

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Qin was furious, her body trembling as she pointed angrily at the crowd. "How can this be repaid? Have any of you seen the injuries on Wan'er's body?"

Then, looking at Han Shu, he said with disappointment, "You keep pleading for them, but have you ever thought about Wan'er's feelings? How desperate Wan'er must have felt when they beat her last night? Did you, as her mother, care?"

Han Shu felt wronged. She had shown concern, but Wan'er wouldn't listen. What could she do?

Lang'er and Yi'er have already received ten lashes; if they continue, they may not be able to endure it.

"Mother, this is Yi'er's fault, Yi'er has already admitted it, please have pity on me..."

Before Han Shu could finish speaking, Old Madam Qin coldly interrupted, "The family law is twenty lashes, not one less. Granny Sun, you will supervise the punishment here. If anyone dares to miss a lash, make up for it with ten lashes."

"Wan'er, you go back with your grandmother!"

"Yes!"

Two responses rang out simultaneously.

Hearing that he would be beaten again, Qin Yi slumped to the ground in despair.

Watching Qin Wan and Old Madam Qin's backs, Han Shu's eyes flashed with resentment. She had already received ten lashes, so why couldn't they be compensated for the seven blows last night?

"Let's continue!"

Granny Sun's icy voice rang out, and the execution continued.

Qin Huai remained silent throughout, after all, this was an order from the old lady, and how could he possibly object?

Tranquil Courtyard.

Qin Wan and Old Madam Qin came to Jingxin Courtyard together.

She knew that her grandmother was not only her own grandmother, but also Qin Lang and Qin Yi's grandmother. Fearing that her grandmother would be too sad, she comforted her.

"Grandmother, did Wan'er do something wrong?"

Unexpectedly, Old Madam Qin said, "Wan'er, you did well. They hurt you, it was their fault, and they deserve to be punished!"

Madam Qin was also heartbroken, but she had another reason for insisting on continuing the execution.

In the past, ten lashes would have nearly killed a person, but Qin Yi was still able to cry out, which shows that Qin Huai had secretly given the order. Today's lashing was meant to teach him a lesson.

"Grandmother~" Qin Wan's voice trembled, and her eyes filled with tears.

Old Madam Qin pulled her into her arms, but fearing she might hurt Qin Wan, she gently held her close.

"Wan'er, you've suffered a lot these past few days. I know you don't want me to worry, that's why you haven't said anything. But the more you do this, the more worried I become!"

Qin Wan nestled in Old Madam Qin's arms, tears streaming down her face. It seemed that only with Old Madam Qin could she shed tears so easily.

"Grandmother, Wan'er understands. Wan'er will tell Grandmother more often in the future!"

That's true, but Qin Wan still didn't want her grandmother to worry.

Here.

After being tortured, Qin Lang and Qin Yi have been sent back to their respective courtyards.

Qin Yi cried and screamed all the way, which pained Han Shu deeply and increased her dissatisfaction with Qin Wan and the old lady.

Qin Yi was a bit young, so he wanted to vent his frustrations.

Han Shu was worried and feared that he might do something impulsive, so she stayed to take care of him. As for Qin Lang, she had already chosen someone to take care of him.

Nanfeng Academy.

Qin Lang had just finished applying the medicine, and before he could even cover the wound on his back, Su Yan'er came in.

"Second brother, Yan'er has come to see you!" The hoarse voice clearly indicated that she had been crying.

Qin Lang frowned. "Weren't you still under house arrest? How did you get out?"
