Chapter 106 Bring me five hundred taels!
Old Mrs. Song was not stupid either. Seeing the expression on her eldest daughter-in-law's face, she knew at once that these people must be related to Li Yao.
In front of everyone, she smiled awkwardly and said, "Why don't we go inside and talk."
After saying that, he reached out to hold the woman's hand.
Unexpectedly, the woman didn't give her any face at all. She opened her hands in public and roared angrily, "Don't think you can let it go like this. Do you want to invite us in, threaten us, and then let this matter go like this?"
The crowd soon started talking.
"Officials don't have any conscience. It's better not to go in. Otherwise, you won't know how you died."
"Look at this old lady, she's so mean. Just now she was so angry and wanted to accuse me, but now she has this attitude. It seems like there must be something wrong."
"Yes, I broke my arm while working for you. You should explain it clearly and give me an explanation! How will I make a living with my arm broken?"
"Yes, yes! This brother is right."
Old Lady Song was furious and blurted out, "Bullshit. You bunch of idiots, stop talking nonsense to me."
Her scolding made the crowd even more angry, and many people pointed fingers at Old Lady Song.
Song Ci stood not far away and watched this scene coldly. The Song family had not yet become rich, and Old Lady Song was just a village woman who had suddenly become rich. She was simple-minded and whatever she thought in her heart was reflected on her face.
He has no control over his mouth.
The more she acts like this, the more people will think that the Song family is not a good family.
"Mom!" Boss Song hurried out from the door, "What happened?"
Seeing Boss Song coming, Old Lady Song told her what had just happened.
Boss Song quickly smiled and bowed, "Everyone, we will definitely ask about this matter carefully later and give them an explanation. Please rest assured."
"It sounds nice, but who knows what you might do behind my back!"
"That's right, officials are the most heartless."
"The book has gone to the dog's stomach!"
After being scolded, Boss Song almost couldn't hold back the smile on his face.
"Please rest assured, my Song family keeps our word." He has a bad reputation as an official now, especially after the Wanxia incident. He has become more and more cautious in his actions, for fear of being caught with any evidence.
I missed the opportunity for promotion before, and now I can't miss it again no matter what.
"You wait here, we will definitely send the person in safely when we get back."
When Song Ci heard that everyone was asked to supervise, he took a quick look and the excited situation immediately improved a lot. As expected, Boss Song was very thoughtful and resolved the current situation with just a few words.
She originally wanted to expose this matter under the public's eyes, so that no matter how the Song family tried to cover it up, they would not be able to do so.
But Boss Song had already calmed down, so we had to find another way.
It doesn't matter, she has another way to go.
There were too many people and not all of them were invited in. The Li family was cautious and only let Uncle Li and his family in, while the rest of the people waited for news at the door.
Back in the main hall, the woman looked around, her eyes rolling around. The young man with the broken hand beside her had the same expression. The mother and son were exactly the same.
Boss Song coughed lightly, pulling their attention back to the present moment. "I haven't asked for your names yet."
The woman raised her eyes, squinted at Li Yao's pale face, and sneered: "You should ask your wife what my relationship with her is."
Li Yao met Boss Song's gaze and trembled.
"Do you know him?"
"I, I do know her. This is... I'm your aunt from my uncle's family."
Boss Song's expression became even more strange. "Since we know each other, why did you do this?"
Li Yao pursed his lips and said nothing. The woman laughed a few times in a sinister way. "You don't dare to say it, right? I warned you at the beginning, but you played a trick on me. Do you regret it now?"
"I clearly gave it to you!" Li Yao raised his head and said in a sharp voice.
I've already paid, why are they still doing this! She sold a lot of things to get three hundred taels of silver!
It would have been better for my cousin to have been hacked to death right away, so that he wouldn't have to cause trouble with her now.
"How dare you talk nonsense? I'll tear your mouth apart!" The woman rolled up her sleeves and walked towards Li Yao. Boss Song hurriedly stopped her.
"Let's talk it over, don't use violence."
The woman sneered and glanced at Li Yao and Boss Song. "Oh, you're still protecting her. If you knew what happened back then, you might not be willing to protect such a scheming woman!"
"Shut up!" Li Yao couldn't help but scream out sharply, his body shaking even more violently.
This is more deadly than wanting to harm Song Ci.
She couldn't let them say it no matter what.
Seeing her fear, the woman sneered, slapped her thigh and sat down, "Alright, I've been making a fuss for a long time, but I haven't even gotten a drop of water. Your family is so rich, but you can't even give me a drop of water? Or am I not worthy of drinking your Song family's water!"
"Hurry up and get in the water." After being humiliated again and again, Boss Song's face became very gloomy.
Song Rouxi and Song Ying were smart and knew that something was wrong, so they didn't dare to say a word.
Compared to their caution and nervousness, Song Ci who was sitting next to them could be described as relaxed and at ease.
Boss Song turned his eyes away coldly and continued, "You've already drunk the water. Tell me why you came here today."
"I left home early and came back in a hurry, and I made such a fuss. I'm hungry now. I don't have the energy to talk because I'm not full." After she said that, she grabbed the pastry on the table and stuffed it into her mouth without any care, and the pastry crumbs fell all over the floor.
In order to get rid of the people as soon as possible, Boss Song ordered people to prepare a table of dishes. The four people who came in ate heartily. The chicken legs were difficult to pick up with chopsticks, so they just picked them up with their hands and wiped their greasy hands on their bodies.
Li Yao frowned and looked even uglier.
After eating and drinking, the three of them finally agreed to talk. The woman pointed at Li Yao while picking her teeth and said, "I came here today because of her. As long as she gives me the money, pay it in full. Then I will leave."
"What do you want?" Old Mrs. Song, who was particularly sensitive about money, asked immediately.
"She owes me three hundred taels. That's not right." The woman sneered, "Now it's five hundred taels! You've been making such a fuss today, and it's delayed my work at home. I want a raise."
"What? Five hundred taels!" Old Lady Song stood up with her eyes wide open. "Why don't you just take my life?"
"Your life is not worth five hundred taels, old lady, you'd better stop jumping around."
After being ridiculed, Old Lady Song's face turned red with anger. She knew that these people in front of her were just looking for trouble, so she just endured it and blamed Li Yao for all the hatred.
She was the one who brought the person here, so naturally it belongs to her.
"What money?"
Boss Song knew that these people wanted money, but what kind of money was it?
