An Wanwan didn't leave; she continued, "Did they interrogate you?"
"No, I heard the hearing will be held tomorrow."
An Ke gets angry when she talks about it. What kind of corrupt officials are they? They locked them up for hours without even letting them have a hearing.
An Wanwan knew that money could make things easier. She didn't want to do what she used to do, but for the sake of her two older brothers, she decided to do it again today.
However.
It's already dark.
She didn't know any of the residents in the town.
It's not easy to find someone to ask now.
Think about it.
An Wanwan decided to talk about it tomorrow.
I found a tree to rest under for the night.
An Wanwan bought a steamed bun, ate it, and then started looking around. When she heard that the yamen had started to hear cases, she didn't care about anything else and followed the people straight to the yamen.
As soon as she arrived, she saw An Miaomiao.
"Miaomiao".
"Wanwan."
An Miaomiao also saw her.
She strode towards An Wanwan, looked her up and down, and asked, "Where have you been all night? We were so worried about you. Dad has woken up, but he's not in good condition. He was seriously injured this time, and he'll probably need to take medicine and recuperate for a while before he recovers."
in this way.
It will definitely cost a lot of money.
The ten-odd taels of silver I had saved had already been used up.
My second brother and his family probably need more money now, and this amount is simply not enough.
An Wanwan was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Miaomiao, I've decided, let's do something big."
"good!"
An Miaomiao had wanted to do this for a long time, and since An Wanwan had spoken up, she naturally wouldn't object.
Not long after.
The town magistrate from the yamen arrived. He looked to be in his thirties, with a square face and average features. He was stern and rarely smiled. His official robes were patched, so he didn't seem like a corrupt official.
An Wanwan didn't say anything for the time being and continued watching.
Not long after.
The town magistrate delivered his verdict on An Ke's assault incident, stating that An Cheng did not injure anyone, but he bore some responsibility.
“An Cheng, An Ke, because you injured someone, you must pay part of the compensation. But since you are brothers and have not started a family, you will jointly compensate Lin Shuisheng five taels of silver.”
Anke and the others haven't said anything yet.
Chef Lin's youngest son was the first to object: "Five taels of silver? That's too little, sir! My father is still lying in the clinic!"
"The doctor at Li's Medical Clinic said that your father only suffered minor injuries, and they are not very serious. The five taels of silver I have ordered is already quite a lot. If you think it's not enough, you can appeal to the higher authorities."
The town magistrate said this.
Chef Lin's youngest son immediately shut his mouth.
Five taels of silver is not a lot, but it's not a small amount either.
An Ke didn't want to go out. He looked up at the town magistrate and said, "Magistrate, my father injured his leg and needs money. I also have family members to support. We don't have any savings at all. You should just sentence me to prison."
"you…"
This was the first time the town mayor had encountered someone like An Ke.
An Wanwan and the others still had five taels of silver.
An Wanwan squeezed to the front and said, "Lord Town Magistrate, I am An Ke's sister. My family will pay for this."
How could she just stand by and watch Anke go to jail?
"Fourth Sister..."
Anke was unwilling.
An Cheng, however, agreed with doing so.
at last.
An Wanwan gave them the money and took them away.
They were released, but Jixiang Restaurant also fired them, on the grounds that their actions had damaged the restaurant's reputation.
"It's all my fault."
Anke felt incredibly guilty as she held onto her wages for the past ten days.
An Miaomiao sighed inwardly; her third brother was even more impulsive than she was.
"Third Brother is alright, we'll get better."
Hearing An Miaomiao's words of comfort, An Ke nodded: "I, I'll go find something to do right now."
"Third Brother, go home first."
An Wanwan stopped An Ke, and it wasn't until they were almost in the village that she told him about her father's situation.
