"Don't you have an idea?"
As Gu Xuelan spoke, she walked to the desk outside and took out a pen and paper.
It was only when Cheng Yue showed up and started scolding people for her that she realized what Cheng Yue meant.
It was because Cheng Yue was here that she had the confidence to hit someone like this.
The relationship between the aunt and sister-in-law can't be said to be good or bad, but Gu Xuelan knows that her sister-in-law will never let the family suffer any loss.
Let’s go all out and make ourselves feel better first.
While she was feeling happy, she had different thoughts than after the incident.
"Ayue, when you looked at the desk just now, were you thinking that we should use force to force him to reconcile with us?"
Gu Xuelan asked again.
"That's right! Scare him out of his wits, make him reconcile, and our family will pay the compensation. Although, Feng will definitely regard our family as enemies in the future, so what?"
Cheng Yue said.
"Yes. But, Ayue, there is a problem here. Our family's money is not enough to pay for the things in the embroidery shop."
Gu Xuelan frowned and said.
"Sister-in-law, besides beating up this bastard, what else did my brother destroy?"
Cheng Yue asked.
"A few precious embroideries and a jade ornament cost between five hundred and one thousand taels. The most we can afford is fifty taels of silver."
Gu Xuelan sighed and said.
"What?"
Cheng Yue was depressed.
To be honest, it was Mr. Feng who deserved it, but it was indeed Cheng Wen who destroyed the things.
Cheng Yue knew that such a thing would require compensation. Even if they threatened Mr. Feng, it would be useless because Mr. Feng had the support of the prefect and his wife.
We can only scare him into agreeing to a settlement, but we cannot make him completely give up the matter.
The aunt and sister-in-law were silent for a while.
The people outside were a little unsettled.
The Cheng family was not worried that Gu Xuelan would be taken advantage of because Cheng Yue was in the house.
But after being inside for such a long time, there is still no movement, which really makes people feel uneasy.
"Shunbo, it'll be okay. Don't worry too much."
Shanshui saw that Cheng Shun's hands were shaking as he held the box, so he stepped forward to support him and said.
"Grandpa, let me hold you!"
Cheng Jinyan stepped forward and said.
Cheng Jinxing kept staring at the two yamen runners who were escorting Cheng Wen, fearing that they might accidentally hurt Cheng Wen, because Cheng Wen was now sleeping on the ground.
That's right, he fell asleep.
He was tired after a whole day, injured his forehead yesterday, and was just too excited, so his body couldn't take it.
Originally, he was very worried about Gu Xuelan, but Cheng Jinyan and Cheng Jinxing kept persuading him, so he really thought in his innocent heart that everything was fine and his wife would be fine.
So, fools have good fortune.
The magistrate of Taoyuan County was standing aside and talking with the steward of the prefect's family, and he didn't care about the Cheng family anyway.
…
There was silence in the room for a moment, and Cheng Yue said, "Sister-in-law, if you can't continue working in this embroidery shop, can you find work in other embroidery shops?"
"Um."
Gu Xuelan nodded.
"Let's agree on the compensation first. What do you think is appropriate?"
Cheng Yue said.
"Mr. Feng will definitely ask for a lot of money. No matter how much I say, it will cost five hundred taels."
Gu Xuelan counted the things that were destroyed when Cheng Wen beat Feng Dong's family and gave a number.
She has always been smart and capable, but now she feels helpless.
