Some wounds are even oozing purplish pus, showing a combination of old and new injuries.
When his wounds were treated, Uncle Qin kept a usual, very calm expression.
A playful smile gleamed in Aunt Liu's eyes.
Li Zhiyuan stood by for a while before considerately entering the house.
Uncle Qin's body relaxed, and he couldn't help but remind Aunt Liu beside him, "Be gentler with your touch."
"Why the act of toughness just now, just for the sake of keeping face?"
"It's not about face, it's about rules."
"How odd, I don't recall you mentioning these rules before?"
"That's because there was no new pillar in the family before."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Liu nodded, not probing further, and instead cautioned, "You can't keep going on like this, at this rate, your body will give out."
"Duty calls."
"But Granny Jia said that once you returned this time, you should rest more and not venture out for a while."
