Chapter 176: Compensation



How about it?

Of course that's not good!

Old Mrs. Shen refuted in her heart with her eyes wide open, thinking that her third daughter-in-law had just suffered so much during childbirth.

He actually wanted that old lady Pan to just apologize and let it go.

No way!!!

Just when Mrs. Shen was about to say something in opposition, Shen Yu'an grabbed her.

Old Madam Shen looked at Shen Yu'an, and when she saw her shaking her head, she swallowed what she wanted to say.

After stopping Old Lady Shen, Shen Yu'an turned his gaze towards the Pan family in front.

They don't even need to speak up about this matter, naturally someone will disagree on their behalf.

Zhu Lizheng happened to see Shen Yu'an's little action and had a bad feeling in his heart.

Sure enough, it was just as Shen Yu'an expected.

As soon as Mrs. Shen swallowed her words, Mrs. Pan opened her mouth and refused.

Old Lady Pan shouted confidently, "Why? I did nothing wrong, why should I admit my mistake?"

Those who were trying to persuade the Shen family also stopped talking, looking a little embarrassed.

Old Mrs. Shen understood Shen Yu'an's intention of not letting her speak just now.

She snorted and said, "Look at what she said. It's not that our family is unwilling to expose this matter properly."

Everyone's expression froze and they stopped talking.

Shen Yuan said: "This matter can't be covered up just because you deny it. The aunts and the head of the village present are all witnesses. Report it to the police!"

When she heard the call to the police, Mrs. Pan became a little panicked.

This, this, this… It’s just a small matter, no one died, why do we need to report it to the police? ! !

The people do not disturb the officials. Ordinary people have never seen what an official looks like in their entire lives, so they naturally have a sense of awe in their hearts.

Pan's husband was so anxious that he groaned and kicked old lady Pan.

Old Mrs. Pan felt pain and looked at her husband timidly.

She said in panic: "It's nothing serious, right? There's no need to report it to the police!"

Old Madam Shen glanced at her and said, "If you say it's okay, then it's okay. If it weren't for you, would my third daughter-in-law have almost had a difficult birth?"

Old Lady Pan wanted to refute, but as soon as she said this, she not only saw Old Lady Shen's eyes that looked as if she wanted to eat her, but also the people in the village looked at her unfriendlyly.

Even her own man kicked her hard.

Old Lady Pan was already sitting unsteadily, and after being kicked, she fell face first to the ground.

The ground of the Shen family's yard was piled up with stone piers several times, making it very solid.

Old lady Pan had crooked teeth, and the blow directly pierced her lip.

Zhu Lizheng couldn't bear to watch their stupid appearance, so he called two people to help them up.

The dirty rags in the mouths of several people from the Pan family were also pulled out so that they could speak.

As soon as the cloth strip in Pan's man's mouth was pulled out, he said anxiously: "We apologize, we apologize."

He said fiercely to Pan: "Apologize quickly."

Pan's mouth was bleeding, her eyes were wandering, and she stammered, "I'm sorry."

Shen Yuan rubbed his ears and asked, "What? I didn't hear it."

Pan was so angry that she secretly glared at Shen Yu'an and said in a louder voice: "I'm sorry!"

After she finished speaking, she started yelling, "I apologized too, please let us go."

Shen Yu'an said in a cold voice: "My Third Aunt is like this, do you think that you can get rid of it with just an apology?"

Old Lady Pan asked in shock: "What else do you want?"

Shen Yu'an looked at the Shen family, and everyone in the Shen family immediately received the signal.

Song said, "My sister-in-law suffered because of you. She must recover her body during the confinement period to avoid any root of disease."

"You just need to pay five taels of silver, a dozen eggs and two chickens, and that'll be all."

This time, not only Pan Shi, but even Pan Hou and his sister Pan Hua were shocked.

"What! I want five taels of silver! And I have to give you chickens and eggs?!!!"

How could their family have so much silver? Five taels of silver was basically all their property.

If we give them everything, how can they live in their own family?

Pan's man had a gloomy face and did not speak, and it was obvious that he was not satisfied with the result.

He turned his gaze towards Zhu Lizheng and immediately put on a sad expression.

He had a sad face, with all the wrinkles squeezed together, and he didn't look like a kind person.

He put on a sad face and acted pitifully, hoping that Zhu Lizheng would come forward to mediate between the Shen family.

He said, "Lizhang, we are from the same village, you know how can our family come up with so much money? If we do, our family will be gone."

Zhu Lizheng was thinking in his heart that if the Pan family really took out the five taels of silver, the family would probably not be able to survive as he said.

Besides, this old man Pan is not a good person. If you make him angry, he will do something desperate.

But the Shen family cannot go without an explanation.

He first spoke to the Pan family with both kindness and severity.

After they all nodded in agreement, they looked at Shen Yu'an and asked if it was feasible.

Zhu Lizheng rubbed his brows. His old body was almost falling apart after standing for a whole day.

He could also see that, for some reason, the Shen family particularly listened to this little girl, so he also looked at her for her opinion.

Everyone present heard what Zhu Lizheng had just said about "combining kindness and severity" towards the Pan family.

He reduced the compensation that the Song family had just proposed to two taels of silver, a chicken and ten eggs.

He not only said that to the Pan family, but he also frequently looked in the direction of the Shen family while saying that, observing their expressions.

Seeing Zhu Lizheng's look, Shen Yu'an said generously: "In this case, let's do as Lizheng said."

Then she looked at Old Lady Pan again and asked in a slightly raised voice, "What about you guys?"

Old Lady Pan felt a suffocation in her chest, unable to breathe it in or out, and she swallowed back the curse that was about to come out of her mouth.

She rolled her eyes and turned away, thinking out of sight, out of mind.

Pan's man said quickly, "The girl is kind-hearted. We agree. You can let us go and we will go back to get the silver."

Shen Yuan looked at his eyes rolling around, chuckled and said, "Then it's settled."

She and Shen Dalang looked at each other, and Shen Dalang walked towards the four members of the Pan family.

But after he untied the rope on Old Lady Pan, he just stood there without moving, and had no intention of helping others untie the rope.
