"No, no, we apologize. We were wrong. We shouldn't have allowed the kids to bully Wang Minran. We are willing to compensate."
Wang Yanran snorted coldly. It was obvious that these people would not cry until they saw the coffin.
"Madam, this is indeed their fault. Please, for the sake of living in the same village, give them a light punishment and a heavy warning."
The village chief spoke quickly, saying that these people were his distant relatives and it was impossible for him not to help them at all.
Wang Yanran also knew that they would have to live in the village for a while in the future. If they really killed all these people, their lives would not be peaceful.
"I am not a fussy person. If that's the case, then each family should give ten taels of silver as medical expenses. Otherwise, there's no deal."
Ten taels of silver is equivalent to two or three years' income for a rural family, and this amount of money is a huge loss for them.
"Well, ma'am, we don't have that much money at home."
Some people saw Wang Yanran giving in in front of the village chief and thought there was still room for bargaining.
"If you don't have money, then we'll just deal with the situation as it is and do what we need to do."
How could Wang Yanran give them a chance to bargain?
"If you don't receive compensation within three days, don't blame me for showing no mercy."
The cold tone, coupled with Qin Fang's whip, made these people dare not say anything.
…
"Aunt, will they compensate us?"
Wang Minran looked at the backs of those people leaving, his expression very uncertain.
"Don't worry, I will. Auntie won't let you get hurt in vain."
Hearing this, Wang Minran smiled: "Aunt is so nice."
With his aunt's support, he no longer has to be bullied by the villagers like before.
Three days passed quickly. A total of seven children beat Wang Minran, but only five families came to compensate with money.
People from two other families fled and hid overnight.
Wang Yanran snorted coldly: "Then bring him back."
Finding people was not a difficult task for Qin Fang. Soon, the people from the two families were brought back.
"I said, if you don't want to pay compensation, then follow the original punishment."
Wang Yanran snorted coldly. In fact, compared to compensation, she would rather take action directly.
She is not short of money now, she just wants to teach those who bullied her nephew a lesson.
"I, we will compensate, we will compensate!"
The two families had also made preparations, they just went out to hide in the hope of getting lucky.
Looking at the silver they handed over, Wang Yanran's face turned cold.
"You've wasted my time, and you still want to solve the problem with ten taels of silver?"
If she tried to be nice to them, they would still be bullied in this village in the future.
"Then, what should we do?"
The two families asked tremblingly, and only then did they feel scared.
If they angered the noble lady, their lives would be on the line at all times.
"A son's debt must be paid by his father. Beat his father!"
Wang Yanran snorted coldly. She didn’t need the money, but she had to teach him a lesson.
Soon, the news that the men from these two families were beaten spread throughout the village.
Those families who had paid compensation before were extremely grateful that they did not run away, otherwise the men in their families would also be beaten.
The two families who were beaten went home and found the village chief, but what could the village chief do?
"People gave you opportunities before, but you didn't take them. What can I do now?"
The village chief was almost pissed off by these people. He had long told them not to anger the nobles again, but these people refused to listen.
The two families had no choice but to go home in shame.
This incident caused a huge uproar in the village, and everyone clearly realized that the Wang family was about to rise up.
From time to time, villagers came to the yard and looked inside, but because of the guards, they did not dare to get close.
The Wang family doesn't care about the eyes of outsiders.
They have seen through the fickleness of human nature over the years.
Wang Yanran naturally didn't care, and Fubao cared even less, so the family had no burden at all.
After only two days at home, Fubao couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to go out for a walk.
Wang Yanran took the child out. Sun Min was afraid that the mother and daughter would be bullied, so she wanted to follow her, but was stopped by Wang Yanran.
"Sister-in-law, you haven't fully recovered yet, so you should stay and rest. With the guards here, I'll be fine."
Sun Min thought about it and didn't force it.
However, when Wang Minran heard that his aunt was going out, he quickly stood up.
"Aunt, I'll go with you. I'm familiar with the village."
"good!"
After living together for a few days, Wang Yanran liked all the children in the family very much, especially the youngest one, Wang Minran, to whom she was particularly close.
"Oh my, this village is quite big."
"That hen lays really big eggs. I really want to eat them."
"That cow is so skinny, can it plow the land?"
…
Along the way, Fubao's thoughts continued to reach the ears of the aunt and nephew.
"There are 368 households in the village. It's quite large indeed."
"That hen belongs to the village chief. His wife feeds it well, so it lays big eggs. But those eggs are for the village chief's son to nourish his body, and his wife will never give them to outsiders. Fubao wants to eat some, so I'll go to the town tomorrow to have a look."
"The cow is very old and seems to be sick, but there is nothing we can do. It is the only cow in the village, so we have to let it continue to plow the land."
…
Wang Minran was indeed very familiar with the village, and he could answer every question Fubao had.
Fubao listened to what was happening in the village and fell into deep thought for a moment.
When she was in the capital, she was surrounded by rich people and had never experienced material poverty. But in the village, she often had to haggle over even a bite to eat.
People are different, and life of poverty and wealth has its own sufferings.
Although the poor are poor, they only have their own piece of land in their hearts and do not have to worry about family or national affairs.
"The land in front is ours. Grandpa and Dad reclaimed a lot of wasteland this year. We can plant sweet potatoes in the spring. Then we won't have to go hungry anymore."
Wang Minran's tone suddenly became a lot more relaxed. Their family didn't have enough land, and what they planted at the beginning was not enough to eat.
The Wang family father and son have been working hard to reclaim wasteland, but wasteland is difficult to reclaim, and they can only reclaim a little more in a year.
Looking at the vast piece of barren land where only sweet potatoes could be grown, Wang Yanran began to feel sad.
"good."
She didn't say that they couldn't use the land anymore. It was the land they had worked so hard to cultivate and it was their long-awaited wish.
Wang Minran was very excited. He pulled Wang Yanran to the reclaimed wasteland and told Fubao the story of how he played and helped there.
In front of Fubao's eyes, a little man seemed to follow his parents and brothers, learning to sow seeds and hoe the fields like them.
"Brother is awesome!"
Fubao praised sincerely, which made Wang Minran even happier when he heard his true feelings.
Wang Yanran watched the two children happily "chatting" and looked into the distance.
There is only one family living on such a large piece of land.
