"Grandpa Tie Tou, please don't bully me! My sister has injured both legs and needs to find a doctor to take a good look at her."

"Grandpa Tietou, all the uncles, aunts, and village chief in the village were listening just now. Are you trying to renege on your debt now?"

"Uncle Tietou, you just scolded our Jiang family and demanded that we use paddy fields to pay off the debt if we can't afford twenty taels of silver. Father may have forgotten, but I haven't. You must pay the silver to take Wan'er to see a doctor no matter what." Madam Hu put her hands on her hips and glared fiercely at Jiang Tieniu.

“Uncle Tietou, Jia Linjing, you are an elder, but that doesn’t mean you can bully my daughter or my family. I hope you’ll go home and prepare twenty taels of silver as soon as possible. I need to take Wanwan to town to find a doctor for treatment.”

......

The Jiang family members couldn't help but say a few words, expressing their attitude.

Jiang Wanwan felt relieved. Although Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang were somewhat biased, everyone in the family was clear-headed and wouldn't be soft-hearted or give in just because the other party was a relative.

However, what does her adoptive grandfather intend to do? After all, he is the one in charge, and whether or not Jiang Tietou should pay compensation is ultimately up to him.

Jiang Tietou stared intently at Old Man Jiang, his face dark and gloomy. He forced out a sentence through his teeth, "Fifth Brother, is this also your idea?"

Old Jiang moved his lips, but finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, "In my family, my wife has always been in charge, and we listen to her."

After saying that, he quickly looked away, not daring to look at Jiang Tietou anymore.

Jiang Wanwan nodded in satisfaction. Although her grandfather was soft-hearted, at least he listened to the family's opinions and did not act arbitrarily or make decisions on his own.

Such a family is not beyond redemption.

"Fifth brother, you better remember this! From now on, I will no longer have you as my cousin, and you will no longer have me as your cousin!" Jiang Tieniu was so angry that he cursed loudly on the spot, and the words of severing ties with his family came out of his mouth.

"Pah! Our whole family couldn't be happier! These are exactly what I wanted to say. Having a cousin like you is the worst luck our Jiang family has ever had. A cousin like you who is always trying to drive us to our deaths is better off without!" Old Mrs. Jiang rolled up her sleeves and launched into a furious tirade.

"Fellow villagers, be our witnesses. From now on, Jiang Tieniu is no longer my husband's cousin, and we have no intention of forcing our relative to his death!"

"You! You! Good, very good!" Jiang Tietou's chest heaved noticeably, his finger pointing at Old Lady Jiang trembled a few times, and his face flushed red.

Good, very good! Even if the fifth brother's family becomes so poor they can't afford food and starve to death, he won't lend them rice or grain. He'll just watch them starve!

The village chief looked at Jiang Tieniu sternly, "Tieniu, what's said is said, and we're all listening. Hurry home and get some money for Jialin so he can take Wanya to see a doctor as soon as possible."

"Village Chief!" Jiang Tietou cried out anxiously, pleadingly looking at the village chief. "Village Chief, could you only compensate me five taels of silver? No, three taels, could you just compensate me three taels of silver?"

"My family doesn't have that much silver! Twenty taels of silver could kill our whole family. Besides, Cuihua and Zhuzhu are blind, Cuihua has a broken hand and a twisted back, and we need the money to hire a doctor for them. Please, village chief, we beg you! Waaah~~"

By the end, Jiang Tieniu's voice was choked with emotion.

This isn't just twenty taels of silver; it's his life!
