Chapter 127 126: Kneeling and Apologizing
Father Zhou stepped forward and said, "Secretary Xu, the Ye family came to our house to cause trouble today without asking any questions. They must come up with an explanation, or I will fight back even at the cost of my life!"
Secretary Xu looked at Ye Dashuang and the others who were surrounded by the Zhou family and said, "You have heard the Zhou family's request. It is obvious that you were wrong in today's incident.
You guys discuss it, those who should apologize should apologize, those who should pay for the medical expenses should pay for the medical expenses. Otherwise I will go to the brigade and call the police station to handle this matter!"
The Ye family felt that they had not gained any advantage by coming to the Zhou family, but Secretary Xu and Captain Zhou had clearly spoken for the Zhou family. It was they who had run onto someone else's territory and were refusing to pay for the medical expenses. They would probably really have to go to jail.
Seeing that she had to pay compensation, Mrs. Ye immediately refused to do it. She pointed at Ye Xiaoshuang with a dark face and said, "We came here because of your problem. It's your job to pay compensation!"
Ye Xiaoshuang looked at her sister-in-law with a gloomy face, thinking that her husband's family was unreliable, and her own family were all vampires. They would take the benefits and run away faster than anyone else, but when something happened, they would all become cowards!
The issue of the wrong scale has been exposed. It seems that I won’t be able to get eels in the future. It’s better to...
She felt resentful when she thought of this, gritted her teeth and looked at Father Zhou pitifully, "Uncle Zhou, as long as you let my brother and the others go, I will not collect eels from tomorrow on."
Father Zhou flatly refused, "No need, my Zhou family is not that overbearing, you can take it however you want!"
They were beaten up at their doorstep, but they gave in just for a few bucks. From now on, the second branch of the Zhou family can never hold their heads up again in the Funius Brigade.
Ye Xiaoshuang looked at Secretary Xu and Captain Zhou, "Secretary Xu, my family earns at least 10 to 20 yuan a day from collecting eels. I have already made such a concession, but Uncle Zhou still doesn't agree. Isn't he deliberately making things difficult for me, a widow without a family head?"
The onlookers started talking again, "Oh my god, they only make 10 to 20 yuan a day? That would be hundreds of yuan a month, right?"
"That's right, no wonder the Zhou family paid compensation to the Xiong family and had money to burn kilns and repair houses."
"Zhou Laoyao even killed a wild boar, and Lao Xiong kept saying that he had the money to repair the house because he found bezoar."
Secretary Xu discussed with Captain Zhou in a low voice, then looked at Zhou's father, "Old Zhou, have you put forward your request?"
Zhou's father said, "Secretary Xu, Captain Zhou, it's not that I, Zhou Dasong, am unreasonable. Everyone knows that my family is repairing a house after burning a kiln. It's not easy for an old farmer to repair a house!"
He sighed and continued, "Ye Xiaoshuang brought people to my house to beat people up and cause trouble. He was deliberately trying to bring bad luck to my family. We must hang red and set off firecrackers to drive away the bad luck. Everyone who came to my house to beat people up must apologize and pay for my family's medical expenses!"
The onlookers nodded, "That's right. Renovating a house is a lifelong event. Widow Ye clearly came here on purpose to cause trouble and bring bad luck."
Secretary Xu nodded and looked at Ye Xiaoshuang. "You continue to collect your eels and sell them. You brought people to cause trouble. You brothers must apologize. You are responsible for hanging red and setting off firecrackers for the Zhou family. As for the medical expenses?"
He looked at Zhou Huaijun's face, then at the grinning Ye family members, "You pay 30 yuan to Zhou Huaijun for his injuries, and the rest will be offset by the two."
Ye Xiaoshuang said dissatisfiedly: "Zhou Huaijun dumped my eels, so we came to him. Both parties are responsible. Why should I be held responsible alone?"
"Why?" Secretary Xu said coldly, "Then let's go to the Guanyin Brigade and ask what happened today!"
Ye Dashuang stepped forward and said with a smile, "Secretary Xu, let's go out and discuss this."
Secretary Xu nodded.
Ye Dashuang and his wife took Ye Xiaoshuang outside and said, "Xiaoshuang, you agreed to it! You can deduct the thirty yuan from my salary!"
Ye Xiaoshuang understood everything after hearing this. He glanced at him and growled, "It's not about the thirty yuan at all. They also want me to hang red and set off firecrackers. Didn't you hear me? If I really hang red and set off firecrackers for them, how will my Huang Bin live in the future?"
"Tsk tsk!" Ye Dashuang's wife looked at her sideways, "You and Cai Ermei have been hooking up for so many years, it's still unclear whether your Huang Bin's surname is Huang or Cai!"
"You~" Ye Xiaoshuang looked at Ye Dashuang, "I thought you and I were closest, but it turns out you..."
"It's up to you whether you want to compensate or not! Dashuang, let's go." Ye Dashuang's wife pulled him and left.
Ye Dashuang walked a few steps and turned back, "Xiaoshuang, I don't want this month's salary."
"Zhou Laoyao, someone from the Ye family ran away." The villagers who were watching the excitement shouted into the yard.
Zhou Huaian: "Run away, the monk can escape but the temple cannot!"
Ye Xiaoshuang looked at the two people who were limping and running fast, took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and returned to Zhou's house, and knelt down in front of Grandpa Zhou with a plop, "Grandpa, I really didn't mean to bring bad luck to your family..."
The old man hurriedly took a few steps back, "What are you doing? Get up quickly!"
Ye Xiaoshuang kowtowed and said, "Grandpa, Uncle Zhou, I am willing to pay for the medical expenses. Please consider that my Huang Bin is still young and has to live a good life in the future. Don't hang red and set off fireworks. I kowtow to you as an apology!"
Yang Chunyan looked at Ye Xiaoshuang who was kowtowing like crazy, and suddenly understood why she abandoned Cai Ermei and invited a man to come to her house.
"Alas!" The old man sighed and waved his hand at Zhou's mother, "Forget it, wake her up!"
"Get up!" Zhou's mother stepped forward and pulled her up, "Pay the medical expenses, and we'll forget about this matter today!"
Ye Xiaoshuang didn't expect the Zhou family to let it go so easily. He stood up and bowed to Zhou's mother, "Thank you, Aunt Zhou! I'll go back and get the medical expenses and send them to you right away."
Zhou's mother said calmly, "You don't have to send it. Just hand it over to the brigade and we'll pick it up tomorrow!"
"Okay!" Ye Xiaoshuang agreed and left without even saying goodbye to his brothers.
Sister Ye looked at Ye Chunhui and said angrily: "Look, this is your sister. It was Ye Dashuang who did this. Not only did we get beaten up for nothing, but we even lost our hair..."
Ye Chunhui glared at her and said, "Say less, no one thinks you are dumb!"
Secretary Xu looked at Ye Chunhui and the others and said, "The Zhou family is very generous. You should also behave like human beings and apologize to them!"
The three brothers Ye Chunhui hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward to apologize to Zhou's father and mother, "Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou, we're sorry! We won't do it again next time."
Zhou Huaian looked at the bruised and battered Ye brothers and said, "Next time? It won't be so easy next time!"
"Secretary Xu, Captain Zhou, can we go now?"
Secretary Xu waved his hand and said, "Don't be so impulsive next time!"
"Uh!" The Ye family left angrily.
Captain Zhou waved to the villagers who were watching the fun, "Okay, it's getting dark, why are you still waiting here for dinner? Go home quickly."
"Let's go, let's go back!" The villagers left while talking about it.
Zhou Huaian and his brothers politely sent away the relatives who came to help.
