Ye Yunniang, who was washing dishes at home, received a call and rushed over.
The doctor has arrived and is bandaging Niu Dajiao's arm.
Ma Xiaokou applies medicine to Niu Dajiao.
Niu Dajiao's face was covered in bruises and red marks, making him look quite creepy.
Li Pan and Li An stood to one side, and upon closer inspection, a hint of fear could be seen in their eyes.
Ye Yunniang's heart tightened, and she walked to the child's side.
How did she bully you?
“Hey, you surnamed Ye, try to be reasonable. They hit me, not me.” Niu Dajiao said, pointing to his face and then to his broken arm.
Ye Yunniang turned her head, her eyes serious. "Don't want your other arm to break. Shut up."
"Mother, I was wrong." Li Pan lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
“Mother, it’s not my brother’s fault, it’s her loose tongue,” Li An said anxiously from the side. “It was Niu Dajiao who said it.”
Li Pan covered Li An's mouth to stop him from speaking. He didn't want those foul words to soil Ye Yunniang's ears.
What did Big-Foot Niu say?
Someone blurted out.
"Niu Dajiao said you're promiscuous, that you've seduced one woman after another, that you've been with countless women long ago..."
"Don't take your anger out on me. That's what Niu Dajiao said, not me. I'm just repeating what she said."
Ye Yunniang reached out and patted Li Pan and Li An's heads, "Don't listen to her nonsense."
"I'm talking nonsense. That man hasn't come yet. He just doesn't like you. You used tricks and forced yourself on him. What good did it do to hire a matchmaker to put on a show?" Niu Dajiao looked at Ye Yunniang with great disdain.
"Say that again, and I'll break your other arm." Li Pan gripped the stick tightly, determined not to allow anyone to insult his mother.
"Ye Yunniang, look at your well-mannered son! He's always ready to break someone's arm. And he wants to study and become an official? Bah! I bet Li Pan will only ever be a street thug, destined for the lowest of the low... sob sob..."
"My mother, please stop talking, please stop talking!" Ma Xiaokou covered Niu Dajiao's mouth, feeling bitter inside.
His mother is such a troublemaker.
"Yunniang, my mother... she has mental problems, please don't take it to heart," Chunxing stepped forward to apologize.
Niu Dajiao shoved Ma Xiaokou aside. "What are you apologizing for? I didn't say anything wrong. If you want me to apologize, fine, have your man come to me. Say it himself that he's marrying you willingly. I'll not only apologize, I'll kowtow to you. Do you dare?"
"I, Jiang Mingzhe, voluntarily propose to marry Ye Yunniang." Jiang Mingzhe's voice rang out at the alley entrance.
Everyone turned around and made way.
Jiang Mingzhe walked up to Ye Yunniang and her two children.
"I'm late."
"Not too late, just in time." Ye Yunniang looked at Niu Dajiao, "Kowtowing is fine."
"How do I know if he's really the man you're going to marry, or if you just hired him?" Cai Damei retorted stubbornly.
"No one has ever dared to pay me, Jiang Mingzhe, to act in a play," Jiang Mingzhe said confidently.
"Jiang Mingzhe, that name sounds familiar."
"Where have I heard that before?"
"I remember now."
"I remember now."
The crowd shouted, "Jiang Mingzhe, the richest man in Jiangcheng."
"Is that possible? It's probably fake."
"It's true. I saw Master Jiang when I was working as a waiter at the restaurant, he went there to discuss business. He looks just like this guy."
"No one dares to impersonate the Second Master of the Jiang family to deceive people."
"Wasn't the Jiang family's property confiscated?"
"That's all ancient history. Jiangcheng suffered from droughts and floods, and the Jiang family donated a lot of their ancestral property. It has long since recovered."
"Ye Yunniang is too amazing, she managed to seduce the second master of the Jiang family."
"What do you mean by flirting? It's a case of mutual affection, a perfect match."
"Yes, yes, they are a perfect match."
"Second Master Jiang, congratulations!"
"Congratulations, Second Master."
...
"I accept your congratulations. When Yunniang and I get married, I would like to invite you all to the Jiang residence for a celebratory drink."
"Okay, okay, I'll definitely go."
"Go, go."
"I must attend Master Jiang's wedding banquet."
How much should I give as a gift?
"Any amount is fine with me, Master Jiang is rich and doesn't care."
"No need for anyone to contribute money. It is my great fortune that Yunniang is willing to marry me. The wedding banquet will be a three-day feast, and no gifts will be accepted. Just congratulate her and wish her a long and happy marriage."
The crowd's words confirmed Jiang Mingzhe's identity. Niu Dajiao's face turned ashen, and his lips trembled.
I kept regretting that I had said such a careless thing.
Ma Xiaokou shoved Niu Dajiao, "Apologize quickly."
Niu Dajiao realized what was happening and stood up. "Second Master, I was wrong, I was wrong. It was my loose tongue, I talked nonsense."
As Niu Dajiao spoke, he raised his hand and slapped himself. Why couldn't he control his mouth?
"You should apologize to someone other than me." Jiang Mingzhe did not accept Niu Dajiao's apology.
“Oh, right, Madam Ye, I’m getting senile. I’m talking nonsense.” Niu Dajiao turned to Ye Yunniang.
"I don't accept your apology." Ye Yunniang's words made Niu Dajiao stiffen.
"Madam Ye, look how badly he hit my face, and my arm is broken too." Niu Dajiao complained, feeling wronged by the actual injuries he had suffered.
"How much does the medicine cost?" Ye Yunniang asked the doctor.
Li Pan will pay for Niu Dajiao's medical expenses, but she will never forgive Niu Dajiao for the harm she caused to her child.
"I don't want any money." Ma Xiaokou waved his hand in refusal. He had no face to ask for money for what his mother had done.
"Why shouldn't I get paid? He injured me, so he has to pay me." When Niu Dajiao heard about money, his face and arm stopped hurting instantly.
“You not only have to compensate me for my medical expenses, but also for the expenses incurred during my recovery. My arm is broken, and it will take 100 days to recover and I won’t be able to work. You have to compensate me for all the losses incurred during this period.”
"How much do you think it will cost?"
"100 taels, no, 1000 taels of silver." Niu Dajiao thought that Jiang Mingzhe was rich, so she asked for more.
"Mom, are you crazy?" Ma Xiaokou grabbed Niu Dajiao and led him home.
"Madam Ye, my mother started this. She spoke rudely, so it's normal that she got beaten. Can we just let this go like this?" Ma Xiaokou knew that her family couldn't afford to offend the Jiang family and didn't want to cause any more trouble.
"What nonsense are you talking about? He injured me, so he should pay me back." Niu Dajiao refused.
"Let me go."
"Stop fooling around, come home with me."
The mother and child were pulling at each other.
Kaba
"My arm—" Niu Dajiao shouted, looking at his good arm.
"Doctor, please take a look."
The examination revealed that Niu Dajiao's arm had been dislocated.
After some discussion, Ye Yunniang compensated Niu Dajiao for his medicine and nutritional expenses, totaling 10 taels of silver.
Ye Yunniang took out some silver and handed it to Niu Dajiao.
Niu Dajiao happily accepted it, put it in her mouth and bit it; this was something she had obtained in exchange for losing an arm.
Ye Yunniang ignored Niu Dajiao's joy at receiving the silver and spoke to Li Pan and Li An.
"If anyone dares to spout nonsense in front of you again, feel free to beat them. As long as no one is killed, it doesn't matter if they lose a hand or a leg. Your mother and your stepfather will have money to compensate you."
