Everyone looked at Lin Xiaoxiao and Han Qiushi, waiting for them to speak.
"We not only want yours, but also Wan Qing's confession. Also, you have to compensate me for the damage to the house. You give me 150 yuan, and Wan Qing has to pay me 300 yuan. If you can fix it, Han Zhiqing and I will let you off this time."
Lin Guang and the others breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; if they didn't go to the police station, their family would be a normal family again.
"We were all so foolish, misled by Wan Zhiqing, that's why we did this. I shouldn't have thought like that, sob sob..."
The two sons beside him were also weeping and repenting.
Seeing that no one in the village stood up for them, Lin Guang gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what, we were wrong today. I'm willing to pay to fix up the houses for Han and Lin."
"As long as you don't report it to the police station, our family will do whatever we want."
Lin Shuiniang, trembling with fear, also knelt before the two of them, saying, "Lin Zhiqing, I know you have good intentions. All the children in the village like you. Wan Qing is trying to harm you."
"But we're willing to pay you money, I beg you to let my family go."
"If all three of them go to jail, how am I supposed to live?!" Lin Shuiniang pleaded desperately.
When the villagers heard Lin Xiaoxiao mention the amount of money, their eyes widened. That's 450 yuan! How many years would it take for an average family to accumulate that much?
Upon hearing this, Lin Guang breathed a sigh of relief, wiped away his tears, and kowtowed to Han Qiushi and Lin Xiaoxiao, saying, "Thank you, you are both good people. We were confused. Thank you."
"We'll sell everything we own to give you this money."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded: "You have to give us the money within 5 days."
"Okay, okay, I'll borrow it, I'll definitely get enough money for you." Lin Guang readily agreed.
Lin Guang verbally agreed, but his eyes grew increasingly hostile. His family would not pay a single penny of this money; it was all that bitch Wan Qing's fault that their family had ended up like this.
From today onwards, their family will find it difficult to hold their heads high in the village. Wan Qing, on the other hand, is comfortably lying in the hospital room, while they are working hard here, kneeling and begging for mercy all night.
Wan Qing should be the one to settle this score.
Seeing the subtle change in Lin Guang's expression, Lin Xiaoxiao smiled almost imperceptibly.
This is the effect she wanted: the Lin family will be punished, and Wan Qing will not escape either.
Let them fight like dogs from now on.
Given Lin Guang's cunning nature, I'm sure he won't let Wan Qing get away with it.
Having resolved the matter, Lin Xiaoxiao noticed that everyone looked a little jealous. She smiled and said to them, "Han Zhiqing and I will keep 100 yuan of this money and continue working on the house."
"I'll use the rest of the money to prepare medicinal herbs for the village. As for how to arrange it, you can discuss it yourselves."
The villagers, who were initially a little uncomfortable, were now extremely surprised and couldn't believe that Lin Xiaoxiao was going to take out so much money to spend on the villagers.
Their village had barefoot doctors, but they all charged money. The consultations weren't expensive, but the cost of the medicine each time was painful for everyone.
The barefoot doctor would go to collect herbs, but with only one person working, how could he possibly handle so many patients needing medical care and medicine? Going to the town's health center would be even more expensive, not to mention the long distance each time, and the money for those medical treatments couldn't be owed.
Humans eat grains and other foods, so it's impossible for them not to get sick. In the past, many families were so poor that they couldn't afford to eat or see a doctor, and they simply died at home.
If we have medicinal herbs available, everyone in the village will benefit.
Lin Xiaoxiao: "The majority of this money will go to the village. I won't hand it over to Wan Zhiqing. I'll leave the rest to you."
"I would also like to thank my fellow former educated youth for standing up for me today. I will always remember that."
When everyone saw that Lin Xiaoxiao had actually given away the money, many of them looked ashamed.
350 yuan isn't a lot, but it's not a small amount either. Even in families with many male members, the maximum they can earn in a year is only a hundred yuan or so.
Lin Xiaoxiao just gave it to her without any hesitation, as if she didn't care at all.
Who...who could be so generous and kind?
This educated youth, Lin, is so kind; he actually cares about the villagers' difficulty in accessing medical care.
I liked Lin Xiaoxiao to begin with, and now I like her even more. Even those who didn't like Lin Xiaoxiao will start to look at her differently again.
What incredible luck for their village to have a loving educated youth like Lin.
Those whose families are relatively well-off don't really feel it, but for those whose families are struggling, it's a form of security.
"Lin Zhiqing, you are our village's benefactor."
"Good boy, good boy, you will definitely be rich and powerful in the future. Good people will be rewarded."
Captain Wang also realized what was happening and said to Lin Xiaoxiao seriously, "Lin Zhiqing, on behalf of the villagers, I thank you."
...
Han Qiushi stood to the side watching Lin Xiaoxiao and couldn't help but smile.
Lin Xiaoxiao is now shining in her eyes. She is intelligent and kind, and her good looks are insignificant to her.
Han Qiushi understood from the beginning that Lin Xiaoxiao was paying money to avoid trouble, but few people had her level of vision.
Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly became rich and was able to keep so much money. Although the two of them were so difficult to deal with, they would definitely attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.
Putting everything else aside, the village is a collective. Things are fine now, but over time, villagers will always side with their own people. Who knows, there might be a lot of people in Wangjia Village gossiping behind our backs in the future.
Giving the money directly to the village would not only give Lin Xiaoxiao a good reputation, but also ensure that she would have someone to stand up for her no matter what happens in the future.
The jealousy and envy of everyone for so much money disappeared.
As for the Lin family and Wan Qing, they're already causing enough trouble for each other when they start fighting amongst themselves.
He will not let these people cause trouble in the future.
Han Qiushi said, "Captain, can we make them write confessions now? Everyone has been working hard all night. The sooner we figure things out, the sooner everyone can go back and rest."
Captain Wang nodded.
Han Qiushi quickly took out paper and pen from the house, and the village officials wrote a confession on behalf of the Lin family. The Lin family members then pressed their fingerprints on the confession.
Those who need to be taken to the hospital should be taken to the hospital, those who need to return the cattle should return the cattle, and the rest who have nothing to do should go back to sleep.
Before everyone left, Lin Xiaoxiao stopped Wang Xue and the others, inviting them to her house for dinner the next day to thank them for standing up for her.
Liu Lele wanted to say no, but seeing the expectant looks on Wang Xue and Li Mei's faces, she couldn't bring herself to refuse.
Wang Xue never even considered refusing, not because she wanted to take advantage of the situation, but simply because Lin Xiaoxiao's cooking was so delicious. The goose last time was cooked by Lin Xiaoxiao, and she still remembered the taste.
They didn't care whether others benefited or not; they were determined to freeload off this meal.
