"Ahem, Mrs. Huang, this is a matter between you two. What do you say?"

Mrs. Huang had just been listening carefully to the conversation between the village chief and Lin Jiuyue. When she heard the village chief asking her, she immediately started crying again.

"Oh, village chief, you can't be partial. Lin Jiuyue hits people at every turn. She beat me up like this. Now she wants to just walk away. How can that be so easy?"

"At least, at least give me some money to check my injuries, right?"

After hearing this, the village chief scolded him twice.

"You were at fault in this matter. Although Lin Jiuyue shouldn't have hit you, why would she hit you if you hadn't been gossiping behind her back? In my opinion, both of you are at fault in this matter."

"Since both parties are at fault, I think we should just let the matter go."

After the village chief finished speaking, he looked at Lin Jiuyue and then at Mrs. Huang.

Lin Jiuyue spread his hands and said indifferently.

"Anyway, I don't care. If Mrs. Huang wants money from me for treatment, then I will ask her for compensation for the loss of my reputation. If she doesn't want it, then I don't want it either."

Lin Jiuyue could still afford the money for treatment, but she didn't want to let someone like Mrs. Huang get away with it.

After listening to this, the village chief nodded.

"Mrs. Huang, Lin Jiuyue has agreed. What are your thoughts?"

Mrs. Huang was beaten like a pig by Xiyue, and she was thinking that she would not give up until she got the money.

At this moment, the village chief said let it go!

If I just let it go like this, then wouldn’t this beating have been in vain?

"No, Village Chief, I don't agree."

What the village chief hates most is dealing with people like Wang Po.

"You don't agree? Then how do you want to solve it?"

This old woman Wang doesn't even consider her own strength! She can't beat him, can't scold him, and she's always rude. Isn't this just asking for trouble?

"Village chief, I want Lin Jiuyue to pay me compensation and treat my injuries, otherwise, I will go to the town to sue the officials!"

Normal people, upon hearing they were about to face the authorities, would be so frightened they would quickly pay compensation. But who was Lin Jiuyue? Lin Jiuyue had traveled through time from the 21st century. The thought of facing the authorities didn't scare her at all.

"See the officer?"

When Mrs. Huang heard Lin Jiuyue talking, she thought Lin Jiuyue was scared and raised her chin proudly.

However, this face that is as swollen as a pig's head, coupled with a smug expression, is really funny.

"Yes, I will see you! When the time comes, the county magistrate will give you a beating. Don't blame me, an old woman, for not giving you a chance."

It is said that the people do not fight with officials. However, most ordinary people in this dynasty were scared when they heard about seeing an official.

When Lin Jiuyue heard this, the corners of her mouth twitched.

This old woman Huang didn't learn anything, but she did learn how to threaten people.

"Since you've already said you're going to see the official, let's go now. I want to ask the county magistrate what the proper punishment is for gossiping behind someone's back and ruining their reputation."

Scare people? As a person with a 21st century soul, you are afraid of meeting the officials? You must be kidding!

Seeing that Lin Jiuyue was not afraid at all, but rather eager to try, Mrs. Huang was stunned for a moment. She even began to believe what Lin Jiuyue said.

Could it be? Was what that little bitch Lin Jiuyue said true? Was there really a penalty for badmouthing someone behind their back? I'd never heard of such a thing in my life.

"Come on, why don't you leave?"

When Mrs. Huang heard that Lin Jiuyue was not afraid but started to urge her on, she felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

"You, aren't you afraid of seeing the officials?"

"I am right. Why would I be afraid of seeing the authorities if I am right?"

Mrs. Huang: ...

Looking at this little girl's expression, could she be telling the truth? Is it really a sin to speak ill of someone behind their back?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Huang felt a little guilty.

"Well, well, as long as you give me the money for my medical treatment, I don't have to go to the court."

Lin Jiuyue looked at Mrs. Huang with disdain.

"After all, you just want some benefits, don't you? You want money for treatment, fine. I just told you, you have to pay me for my reputation and mental damage first, and then I will give you the money for treatment."

When Mrs. Huang heard this, she was stunned.

What about compensation for loss of reputation or mental damage? I've never heard of it myself.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I only know that you beat me up, so you should pay me compensation."

Lin Jiuyue shrugged indifferently.

"Since you don't want to, let's go see the official. Then let the county magistrate make the decision."

Mrs. Huang: ...

Seeing that neither of them would give in, the village chief stepped forward to mediate.

"You two are both at fault. If it were you, I'd say we should just make a big deal out of a small matter and let it go. Why bother seeing an official? If the news gets out, people will laugh at you."

"Village chief, then, then what you mean is that I, an old woman, will suffer this meal in vain?"

The village chief coughed twice.

"Ahem, you asked for this beating, didn't you? You can only blame yourself for your bad luck."

After hearing this, Mrs. Huang sat down on the ground again, slapped her hands on the ground, and cried and cursed.

Seeing this, Xiyue wanted to go forward and hit people again, but was stopped by Lin Jiuyue.

"Xiyue, forget it. She didn't mention anyone by name anyway. The village chief is still here, so we have to give him some face."

After hearing Lin Jiuyue's words, Xiyue let Huang Po go.

However, I still feel a little regretful that I couldn't get started.

Not long after Mrs. Huang started crying, her family hurried over.

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you sitting on the ground?"

"Old woman, who slapped you in the face? Who?"

When Xiyue beat Huang Pozi, some villagers went to notify Huang Pozi's family, but at that time Huang Pozi's family were working in the fields, and the villagers searched for a long time before they found them.

After finding the person, he hurried over.

When Mrs. Huang saw her family coming, she cried even harder.

"Oh, son, old man, you are finally here. If you hadn't come, I would have been beaten to death."

As Mrs. Huang spoke, she slapped the ground, looking like a typical country shrew.

"Old woman, who hit you? Ah? Who?"

A trace of anger flashed across Old Man Huang's thin face as he glanced at the surrounding villagers.

This isn't just hitting your wife. This is totally hitting yourself in the face!

Mrs. Huang wiped her tears and snot from her face. She sniffed again and pointed her finger at Lin Jiuyue.

"It's her! That little bitch Lin Jiuyue had her servants beat her."

Lin Jiuyue frowned.

It seems that even after being beaten, this old woman Huang still hasn't learned her lesson! She even dares to scold me.
