Lin Jianguo looked at Er Ya pleadingly: "Daughter, I beg you, please let it go. Your brother already knows he was wrong. Give him this chance. If it happens again, I'll personally send him to jail."

Since Lin Jianguo had said that, Er Ya was also a little afraid that she might really push Lin Jinbao too far. What if someone like him really took revenge on them when he got out? And what about her unborn younger brother?

Anyway, he looked pretty scared, so he'll probably calm down for a while. Let's let him off this time.

Otherwise, if she really sent him to jail this time, the villagers would probably think she was heartless. Although she didn't care about other people's opinions, Jiang's mother and the others did care!

He pretended to have thought about it for a long time, keeping the family hanging, and then whispered something to Li Taohua for a while.

Li Taohua said she trusted Er Ya and wouldn't let her suffer any losses, and would listen to her completely. She then hurriedly grabbed the blankets, as she needed to go see her son as soon as possible.

Er Ya hesitated for a moment and said, "How about this, take a hundred yuan and consider it Gou Dan's medical expenses, then we'll call it even. If it happens again, Dad, you said you'll personally send him in, and no amount of pleading will help."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Niu exploded: "What? One hundred yuan? Why don't you just rob someone? Her son is perfectly fine, how could he have spent so much money?"

"If that doesn't work, the police might come soon, and you'll be going to see your son in jail."

"But……".

Lin Jianqun asked Er Ya, "Could you reduce the amount a bit? You know your uncle's family situation, how come you can come up with so much money?"

"Uncle, this is the price Aunt Peach Blossom just agreed on. She said that if we don't pay, she'll make sure Lin Jinbao goes to jail for three to five years."

"If you're reluctant to spend the money, you can let your son serve a few years in prison. By the time he gets out, you'll be old enough to hold your grandson. The only question is, will someone with no education who's just been released from prison be able to find a wife?"

When Grandma Shen heard that it might affect her son's marriage, she quickly said, "We'll pay for it, but you need to send someone to call Lin Shitou back right away!"

Lin Fugui tapped his pipe: "How about I go and call him? I know people at the police station. If they get lost halfway there, I can coax them back."

Grandma Shen was overjoyed: "Alright, alright, then I'll leave it to you. The second son's family has bicycles, you can ride one, you'll definitely catch up with Lin Shitou."

Lin Fugui glanced at Er Ya, knowing that she was the one in charge of their family. Seeing her nod, he pushed his bicycle out.

Goodness, I've never ridden such a brand new bicycle before! With a little effort, it went quite a distance. This is truly a wonderful thing; no wonder Old Lady Shen has been eyeing it.

In the courtyard, Lin Jianqun pulled at Old Lady Shen and said, "Mom, where would we get so much money?"

Grandma Shen glared at him: "You really want my grandson to go to jail? What if you don't pay me? Give me some advice."

Lin Jianqun nudged Lin Jianguo, about to speak, when Er Ya saw through his plan at a glance and said with a smile, "Uncle, didn't you just borrow five yuan from my family? You probably haven't used it all yet, right? You can take it out to make up the difference."

Upon hearing this, Niu grabbed Lin Jianqun's ear and wouldn't let go: "When did you borrow money behind my back? Where is the money? Where did you spend it?"

Lin Jianqun cried out in pain, "Mother!" Old Mrs. Shen, seeing Niu Shi bullying her son, was displeased and pushed Niu Shi to the ground, scolding her:

“You dare to hit my son to my face, who knows how you bully him behind my back? What time is it? Hurry up and give me the money.”

Niu hesitated and said, "But we really don't have that much money."

"Alright, take fifty. I'll use the rest of my savings for my funeral to scrape together. It'll be enough. I can't just watch my precious grandson die without an heir because of this."

When Mrs. Niu heard that Old Mrs. Shen was willing to give half of it, her eyes, which had been swollen from crying, managed to force a smile. She agreed and went home to get the money.

Fifty yuan is enough for our family to make even when we're struggling financially.

Grandma Shen pushed away the men who were holding Lin Jinbao: "Alright, you've taken the money, now let go of my grandson."

Seeing that Er Ya signaled to release Lin Jinbao, the men immediately let go.

Poor Lin Jinbao had been forced to kneel on the ground for a long time, and then these people suddenly let go of him. He couldn't react in time and fell to the ground.

She burst into tears, crying, "My face hurts so much! Am I going to be disfigured?"

Old Mrs. Shen, feeling sorry for the child, hugged and comforted him for a long time. It was hard on her; she was an old woman who was about 1.4 meters tall and weighed about 100 pounds, and she had to hug and comfort a child who was only eight or nine years old, weighed about 100 pounds, and was so fat that you couldn't even see his eyes. She called him her "precious little darling" for a long time.

Er Ya looked at the scene before her with disgust, and almost threw up the food she had just eaten. With this family's attitude towards raising children, Lin Jinbao would definitely get into trouble in the future.

After watching for a while without seeing Grandma Shen make any move to go home to get the money, he asked impatiently, "Grandma, it was supposed to be a hundred, otherwise I'll have to go to the police station again."

Old Mrs. Shen glared at Er Ya, wishing she could kill her with her eyes, and said to Lin Jianguo, "Second son, you pay for your nephew's money. Do you really want your mother to pay for her own funeral?"

What? So this is what they were waiting for? Where else would you find such a good deal? It was clearly Lin Jinbao who wanted to beat him up, but in the end, he still had to pay for it himself.

Jiang's mother, who had been eavesdropping in the house for a long time, couldn't sit still any longer and came out, supporting her pregnant belly.

"Lin Jianguo, don't expect our family to take this money. How much money do we have to cover his hole?"

Old Mrs. Shen pointed at Jiang's mother's nose and cursed, "You vicious woman, you taught her all this, didn't you? Otherwise, how could a girl who is only a few years old have so many tricks up her sleeve? Why can't you let my son take the money? It's what he earned."

"Whether he earned it or not, he knows for sure. I'm making this clear today: if he takes even a single penny today, I'll immediately take Er Ya back to my parents' home. I've had enough of this kind of life."

Old Mrs. Shen scoffed dismissively, "Go ahead and leave. Look at you, carrying one in your belly and leading another. When you go back to your parents' home, will they even let you in? Only my son has a kind heart and has tolerated you for so long."

Jiang's mother ignored her and looked directly at Lin Jianguo, saying, "Tell me, do you want to watch me leave with Er Ya, or do you want to stand with us?"

"Second brother, ignore her and let her go. I'll find you another young woman to have ten or eight sons and make her angry. She's such a bad luck charm, always hanging out with that jinx Li Taohua. Maybe she's caught up in that jinx's bad luck too."
