Chapter 77 Settlement of Accounts
Xu Yao had experienced the cold widow's eloquence last time.
In just a few words, he first expressed concern for An An, then pointed out that the essence of this matter was a trivial matter between children and adults should not interfere, pointed out that An An's injury was not serious, and finally used moral kidnapping.
We, a family, have been starving waiting for you, but you are eating and drinking well outside. What else do you want from us?
If you care about it, you are narrow-minded and you won't get along with the child.
Now that things have come to this, who would dare to pursue the matter further?
Countless people in the slum have suffered at the hands of the cold widow.
Ji's mother and Ji Yanyu came over after hearing the noise, looking very upset.
"Sister Leng, you can bring the food out and we can talk while we eat."
Ji Changyu had a stern expression on his face, and was not at all moved by the widow Leng's flirting.
"Yes, we are not in a hurry. We can wait until you finish eating and then talk slowly." Xu Yao said.
Seeing that the couple looked like they were determined to get to the bottom of the matter, the cold widow forced a smile.
"Their father died early. It's all my fault for not teaching them well. If you want to blame someone, blame me."
"Of course the responsibility lies with you."
Xu Yao's words made the cold widow choke. She stared at her unkindly. She was just being polite, but the damn girl was gasping for breath?
Xu Yao ignored her expression and continued speaking.
“If your three eggs hadn’t come to rob us, An An wouldn’t have slapped Tie Dan’s hand. If he hadn’t slapped his hand, he wouldn’t have been retaliated by your three eggs.
Sister Leng, I'm not saying anything harsh about you, but you don't have a job and you stay at home every day. How could you raise your children like this?
I don’t know if it’s because you don’t have time to teach them, or if that’s just their nature and you can’t teach them well. ”
Xu Yao looked at her with sneer, and Ji's mother's tears of grievance were suddenly held back, and she almost laughed out loud.
That's a really cruel thing to say.
The daughter-in-law is reminding everyone how despicable it is for the cold widow to be busy flirting with men all day long, or to stand at the door and think about the food in other people's pockets.
If the cold widow does not admit that she has done something bad, then she is implicitly admitting that her three eggs are born bad.
If Widow Leng hit An An, she could fight back with a knife, but if it was a child, she would have no reason to fight back.
Fortunately, my daughter-in-law is smart and eloquent, otherwise I would have suffered such a loss!
Mother Ji pulled Ji Yanyu and said, "Learn more from your sister-in-law, so you won't suffer any loss in the future."
Ji Yanyu didn't even blink, "I remember every word."
“…”
Unable to advance or retreat, the cold widow's face turned blue and purple.
She really underestimated this little country girl.
But she couldn't admit either of them, and said hesitantly.
"It was just a joke between kids. Tiedan and the others didn't expect to get hurt. They already know they were wrong. I will teach them a lesson when I get back."
A hint of sneer appeared on Xu Yao's bright and beautiful face.
"It seems that my sister-in-law still doesn't realize the seriousness of the matter. I have not been in the compound for long, but from what I know, there have been several cases of them retaliating against others.
Just because you think the children are naughty and don't discipline them strictly, they dare to tease and retaliate against others again and again.
If An An hadn’t been lucky and only had his forehead broken, what if the stone was facing his eyes? Wouldn’t An An be blinded?
If his throat had been punctured, would An An still be standing here alive? Sister Leng, they are not naughty, they are just simply bad! Who knows if they wanted to kill An An when they poured oil and threw stones! ”
Xu Yao said a lot of things in a flash, and the cold widow curled her lips. It was just that Xu Jiaan fell down, and the broken head was an accident.
As for making a fuss?
Old Mrs. Deng rolled her eyes shrewdly and said something to take advantage of the situation.
"That's right. You have to pay for it. Don't spoil the child. I went out this afternoon and forgot to lock the door. When I came back, I saw that only the bottom of the oil can was left. It must have been you three who stole it. You have to pay me back together."
Yindan, who was wronged, immediately started yelling in grievance.
"You don't have that much oil at home. I clearly stole it from an old man's house!"
Eight-year-old Tiedan slapped Yindan on the back.
Stupid, you shouldn't say this outside.
An old lady who was eating melon had a slightly distorted look on her face. She said that when she was cooking, she felt that there was less oil at home, and thought that the old man had given it to someone else. He did not deny it at the time.
Faced with the questioning gaze of the aunt, the uncle coughed but did not argue with the child.
Ji Changyu saw that Widow Leng didn't care and said seriously.
"Since you can't discipline the child, then ask the school teacher to do it. I will tell the principal what Jindan did and educate him accordingly."
Seeing Xu Yao's face full of confusion, Ji Changyu whispered to her.
The 8-year-old Jindan is exempted from tuition and is in the first grade of the street primary school. He is a poor student and loves to make trouble, and has already been in the first grade for two years.
If you make the same mistake again, you will most likely be expelled.
Once they are expelled from school, the street office will not help them find schools that are free of tuition and miscellaneous fees.
The cold widow’s eyes went dark.
This black-hearted couple didn't give her any chance to live!
"Captain Ji, you are too cruel. You want my three sons to not be able to go to school in the future! Your family doesn't lack the medical expenses, but we can't afford it. Do you think you will feel good when you see my three children starving to death at your doorstep?"
Many people in the compound shook their heads and sighed, actually thinking that Widow Leng had a hard time too, so just let it go if she wanted Xu Yao and the others.
Is Xu Yao someone who is willing to suffer losses?
Obviously not!
"Everyone, listen to me. My sister-in-law also said that our family has no shortage of medical expenses. The reason we do this is for everyone's safety!
Just think about it, because of a little dispute, Sandan started to hold a grudge against someone. An An was lucky, he just had a scar on his head.
What about changing to other elderly people and children next time? Would they accidentally poke their eyes or cut their throats? It will be too late to regret then.
We adults cannot imagine the vicious method of smearing oil on the stone slab and laying stones underneath. Who knows what sinister tricks they will come up with that are hard to guard against? What if they didn't lay stones but inserted knives instead? ”
Everyone originally thought that it was a bit too much, but after hearing what Xu Yao said and looking at the vicious eyes of those three guys, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Everyone is afraid of an unintentional act that will make the three of them hate them, and then they won’t know how they died.
It's just some medical expenses, the punishment is not severe at all.
Seeing that some people in the compound were suggesting to kick Widow Leng and her family out, an old man finally stepped forward to persuade them.
"The three children are still young, they can be taught well. It is true that Xiao Leng has no problem disciplining them, fortunately An An did not get into any serious trouble.
Let’s put it this way, Xiao Leng will pay the medical expenses and give them an extra 5 yuan for nutrition. If they dare to retaliate again, I will take charge and move their whole family away. ”
