Don’t Hold Back—Fight or Scold When You Have To
In truth, she hoped A Tao would show some courage and rip A Lin’s mask off. Though it would hurt, a quick hurt beats dragging it out. If she kept entangling herself with A Lin, there’d be no good outcome for her.
A Lin thought of how A Tao and A Qin had fought and gasped sharply, his face paling.
Lin Nannan was pleased with A Lin’s frightened expression and then shooed them off before they could cause more trouble.
With the Lu family and others standing firm, A Lin’s family had no choice but to leave…
After they left, Lin Nannan crouched down to look at the trampled seedlings, fuming.
If not for the fact that she knew her strength could easily put A Lin in the hospital—and bring trouble to the Lu family—she would’ve really shown them what’s what.
Seeing her distress, the Lu family also felt for her.
"Nan Nan, let Grandma take a look. Maybe we can save them!" Grandma Lu couldn’t bear it and walked over, crouching beside her.
Lin Nannan, who hadn’t cried even when being scolded, now had reddened eyes as she looked at Grandma tearfully and asked, "Can they really be saved?"
Seeing her like this, Grandma Lu wished she could beat up A Lin’s entire family.
"Let Grandma see…" She reached out and gently prodded a few of the seedlings, pointing at two of them. "These are broken—probably beyond saving. But these others might make it. Let’s loosen the soil a bit…"
Hearing this, Lin Nannan perked right up, her mood lifting considerably.
Pan Xiaoping, watching this scene, whispered to Zhang Xiaofeng, "She’s so quick to cheer up. Those people think Nan Nan has no family backing her up, and with A Hang in his condition, she’s an easy target. That’s why they pick on her!"
Zhang Xiaofeng knew this all too well, which was why she found those people so despicable—always picking on Nan Nan, assuming the Lu family wouldn’t fully support someone slow, at least not wholeheartedly.
The Lu family needed to draw a line in the sand. Otherwise, anyone would think they could walk all over them. Though their A Hang couldn’t walk, they weren’t old yet, and the Lu family still had A Ming.
Thinking this, Zhang Xiaofeng turned to Lin Nannan, whose eyes were still misty, and said, "Nan Nan, from now on, if anyone bullies you for no reason or speaks ill of you and A Hang, don’t hold back. Scold them when needed, fight them when necessary. Don’t let anyone think the Lu family is easy to bully."
"Exactly," Grandma Lu said, planting her hands on her hips after standing up. "If A Hang can’t handle it, and A Ming isn’t enough, we still have the entire Lu family behind us."
In the entire village, the Lu family accounted for a third of the population. Otherwise, Lu Ding wouldn’t have become the village head.
"Nan Nan, your grandma’s right. Even if we’re not the strongest, we still have the whole Lu family. Bullying us is like a slap in our whole family’s face. As long as we don’t provoke others first, scold when needed, fight when necessary—we’ve got your back!" Lu Fang said seriously.
"Right, that’s how it should be!" Lu Zheng and Pan Xiaoping chimed in together.
If they came to mock or bully the Lu family as a whole, that’d be different. But targeting Nan Nan alone? That was clearly intentional.
In such cases, they absolutely wouldn’t stand for it.
Lin Nannan was deeply moved, feeling the Lu family treated her too well.
But at this moment, a twinge of guilt nagged at her.
The Lu family treated her kindly because they believed she was good to Lu Hang. But she knew—they all hoped Lu Hang could recover… Yet she, who could actually make him stand again, hadn’t lifted a finger…
It almost felt like she was taking their kindness for granted.
Lin Nannan started wrestling with herself again, wondering how she could help Lu Hang recover without anyone asking questions.
