Chapter 1590: Appropriate

Duan Mubai drank his tea and his eyes didn’t even flicker: “If you’ve done something wrong, you have to accept the punishment. Duan’s Family Law cannot be invalidated.”

When she heard this, Duan Linlin was dumbfounded, especially when she saw the steward take out the Family Law, she sat on the ground paralyzed. The so-called Family Law was a ruler. It was a custom-made ruler that had been handed down from the ancestors.

There were also sharp spikes on the ruler, and every time the ruler landed on your body, your body would suffer immense pain. It could be said that the Duan Family Law was something that every Duan family member feared. There weren’t many times the Family Law was executed because no one dared to be so defiant as no one dared to bear the consequences of the Family Law.

“Bring her over here!” The City Lord shouted in a deep voice.

“Father…..I don’t want to….” Her legs were so weak with fear that she was unable to stand. The two guards dragged her over to kneel in front of her father.

As he looked at the pale and frightened face of his daughter kneeling in front of him, the City Lord took the cane and raised it high, then let it drop down heavily.

“Crack!”

“Ah!”

A heavy blow fell and the cane fell on her back. Blood oozed through her pink dress, accompanied by her shrill screams that spread through the Manor. Shocked, everyone in the Manor came over to watch quietly.

“Crack! Crack crack!”

“Ah… don’t hit me anymore, Father, don’t, don’t hit me anymore….it…it really hurts Father…” Her whole body fell to the ground as she wailed and screamed. She was unable to escape because she was held down by the two guards, so she could only cry for mercy.

As the Family Law fell on her over and over again, the cracking sound and her cries made everyone’s scalp feel numb. They were especially shocked when they saw the blood oozing from Duan Linlin’s back.

It had been a long time since the Family Law was executed in the Manor. Unexpectedly, it was the City Lord’s beloved daughter who was the recipient of the Family Law. This made everyone wonder, what heinous crime did she commit that would make the City Lord so angry he would use the Family Law?

As the cane fell on his daughter, the City Lord looked on at her blood-stained body in distress. It was just that his Second Brother was inside watching, and she had indeed committed a grave mistake. If he had stopped just like that, he was afraid that his reputation would be damaged and he would no longer be able to raise his head with pride in front of his Second Brother, therefore, he continued to hit her.

Duan Mubai drank his tea quietly inside until the person outside had screamed until she was no longer able to bear it any longer. Only then, he stood up and walked outside and said: “Elder Brother, it’s fine to teach your children, but don’t kill her. I think you can stop now! She should remember her lesson!”

Upon hearing this, the City Lord stopped immediately and looked at his daughter who was sprawled on the ground. He asked in a stern voice: “Have you learnt your lesson?”

“Yes, I have.” Duan Linlin who was sprawled on the ground bit her lip, her voice trembled and her face was pale. Her body was covered in sweat and blood and she looked so awkward.

“Hurry up and get some medicine for Young Miss!” The City Lord shouted and ordered the two guards to take her back and then he ordered: “Tell the House Doctor to go and take a look at once!”

“Yes!” The guards answered and took Young Miss back to her courtyard and sent for the House Doctor at the same time.

“Elder brother, I am leaving tomorrow, I want to go and see Father and have another chat with him.” Duan Mubai looked at him and said.

“Sure, you go!” The City Lord nodded his head and after he watched him leave, he hurried over to his younger daughter’s courtyard to see if her injuries were serious.
