Ding Shiping didn't put the towel in his mouth because he really couldn't understand what Ding Shilei was going to do.

It wasn't until Ding Shilei brought a branch as thick as his thumb that Ding Shiping suddenly understood what was going to happen next.

He quickly begged for mercy, "Second brother, I really know I was wrong. I will never climb trees again or cause trouble again."

Ding Shiping's voice was full of fear and choking.

"If you speak louder so that my sister-in-law and your third sister can hear you, I will hit you harder."

Ding Shilei ignored Ding Shiping's plea and walked towards him holding a branch.

Ding Shiping did not dare to speak anymore, he knew that he would not be able to escape from this beating.

He silently put the towel into his mouth, bit it tightly, and then lay on the bed.

Ding Shilei slapped him hard three times on the butt.

Ding Shiping didn't let himself make a sound and endured the pain.

When Ding Shilei stopped, Ding Shiping was still preparing to take the next critical hit. Unexpectedly, Ding Shilei only hit him three times.

Ding Shiping took the towel out of his mouth and looked at Ding Shilei in confusion.

"I will teach you a simple lesson this time. If you do it again next time, I will never let you off lightly."

Ding Shiping was delighted when he heard this and quickly promised that he would remember it and would not do it again.

Nonsense, not only did he sprain his foot, he was also beaten. No matter how hard he remembered, he deserved the beating.

Ding Shilei threw him a tube of wound medicine and asked him to apply it himself.

"Second brother, why do you have medicine for wounds?"

Ding Shilei does dirty and tiring work outside, especially at the construction site, where bumps are normal.

When he had no money before, he didn't care about the injuries and just held on.

Later, after Gawain asked him to keep the money, he didn't buy anything except this tube of wound medicine.

"You can use it if it's for you, there's so much nonsense!" Ding Shilei scolded.

Ding Shiping curled his lips secretly and murmured in a low voice: "Why don't you ask me what's wrong?"

Shen Xiaojun came over very early. When he arrived, the Ding family was having breakfast.

Seeing this, Shen Xiaojun was stunned and hurriedly wanted to retreat, but Gao Wen still looked him in the face.

"Xiaojun is here. You haven't had breakfast yet. Let's sit down and eat together."

Just when Shen Xiaojun was about to refuse, Ding Xiaolan had already gone to get him bowls and chopsticks, not giving him a chance to refuse at all.

Shen Xiaojun didn't want to come so early, but he was too excited.

He was so excited that he didn't sleep much all night. He couldn't sleep in the morning, so he got up and came to Ding's house feeling dizzy.

After eating to his fullest, Shen Xiaojun's dizzy mind became clearer.

He took on the task of washing dishes, and when Gawain saw his persistence, he didn't stop him.

Gawain knew that he would feel bad if he was not allowed to work.

After washing the dishes, Gao Wen and the others had already gone to the county seat. Shen Xiaojun came to Ding Shi's flat house, hesitating about how to talk about studying.

Ding Shiping took a notebook and a pen and handed them to him happily.

"Take it, my sister-in-law asked me to give this to you. How can you write if you don't have paper and pen?"

Hearing this, Shen Xiaojun hesitated and took it cherishedly.

Ding Shiping gently stroked the notebook and pen, with mixed feelings in his heart.

He knew that he owed the Ding family more and more.

"Okay, let's start studying." Ding Shiping interrupted Shen Xiaojun's meditation.

Shen Xiaojun raised the corners of his mouth and nodded heavily.

Unfortunately, before the two of them could start, Gao Zhihua suddenly rushed in.

Seeing Shen Xiaojun, he asked doubtfully: "Hey, why are you here?"

However, he didn't care. He turned to Ding Shiping and said, "I saw your sister-in-law and others left, so I came here.
