Chapter 182 A huge sum of money!
"What are you doing? Don't you know? You bastard, you have done so many immoral things, and yet you still ask questions even though you already know the answer!" The officer arrested him and left.
Once you arrive at the government office, there is no need for any interrogation.
With Hu Da and Hu Er as witnesses, Jiang Lianzhu and Wang Laowu sued him for malicious framing. The town chief clerk gave each of the three of them a beating with a stick. Qian Guanxi was given thirty beatings, and Hu Da and Hu Erliang were given twenty beatings each.
Qian Guanxi was so angry in the court that he started cursing Hu Da and the other two bastards, calling them dogs biting each other. The chief clerk gave him ten more strokes of the cane for disturbing the court's discipline.
The final sentence was that he either had to go to jail or pay compensation to the victim Jiang Lianzhu's family.
Qian Guanxi chose to pay compensation in silver.
One hundred and twenty taels of silver, not a penny less.
Qian Guanxi asked his family to send some silver and money, and the chief clerk released them.
Jiang Lianzhu was also sensible. She took out half of the 120 taels of silver and gave it to the chief clerk.
"Sir, this 120 taels of silver is an unexpected gain. I plan to donate it all to the porridge. You just said that we don't need to provide rice, but only the medicine to make porridge. I will divide this silver into two parts. 60 taels will be donated to the government office to buy rice, and the other 60 taels will be kept to buy the medicinal materials for the porridge. What do you think?"
The Chief Clerk praised again, "Doctor Jiang is truly virtuous and upright! She is truly a heroine and a role model for doctors. I admire her!"
After praising Jiang Lianzhu, he praised Wang Laowu, "Wang Laowu, you are quite generous. Your whole family is generous, and your children are especially adorable than those in other families."
The girl in Wang Laowu's arms giggled.
Wang Laowu was embarrassed and said, "Thank you, thank you."
Seeing the miserable state of Qian Guanxi and the others' buttocks, Jiang Lianzhu finally felt a little relieved.
Finally, I received another sixty taels of silver.
She wanted to see who else wanted to give her more money before she could live off her savings!
She donated half and kept half, and she didn't feel bad about it. After all, she was just making money from the landlord, and she could use half to do good deeds, which made her feel at ease.
Jiang Lianzhu took out two taels of silver and bought a lot of delicious food in the evening for the whole family to have an extra meal.
I also bought a lot of snacks for the children. They are for my own kids to eat, and I will also take some back to the people in Wangjia Village in the countryside tomorrow.
While having dinner, I told my daughter about the kidnapper she encountered today, and asked my eldest and second children to be careful.
The two boys were scared, fearing that their sister was missing.
I praised Xue San and gave him a fat bone to chew...
Then, Jiang Lianzhu told them about her encounter with the two Hu brothers and how Qian Guanxi was arrested and sent to the government office. Dabao and Erbao felt relieved again.
Erbao was beaming with joy, saying that those with the surname Qian and Hu deserved it.
Well, the point is, their family has received another sixty taels of silver.
A huge sum of money!
You can buy a lot of delicious food. With money at home, everyone in the family can feel at ease.
***
Some are happy and some are sad.
Qian family.
Qian Guanxi lay on the couch in the corridor of his own courtyard and ordered the servants to tie up the two brothers of the Hu family and beat them severely.
Hu Da screamed in pain, "Master, Master, I was also beaten with a stick, it hurts! Master, we have no other choice. As soon as we returned to the town, we met that evil star. He asked us to pay compensation, but where can we get it?"
"I didn't know that evil star was going to send you to the authorities. If we had known earlier, we wouldn't have confessed... Master, please stop fighting. We were forced into this situation. We followed you and did so many things. Even if we didn't have any merits, we did work hard!"
"We have a deaf old mother at home. We can't stay away from home forever. We have no money on us, and your shop elsewhere won't even let us withdraw any money. We're almost begging outside. Isn't this also a disgrace to you, Master Qian..."
…
Qian Guanxi refused to listen to what the two of them had to say.
My body is burning with pain.
"These two idiots haven't done anything wrong, yet they keep getting me into trouble. Beat them! Beat them hard! My butt is broken! Why did they only get twenty lashes? Beat them! Beat them forty times! They've caused me to lose one hundred and twenty taels of silver. Beat them again! Beat them a hundred and twenty times!!!"
"Master, if this goes on, someone will get killed..."
Qian Guanxi was furious. "If they're killed, it's my fault. If they're killed, it's my fault. They were just two dogs I raised!"
…
***
The next day, Jiang's Medical Clinic was closed.
After Dabao and Erbao went to school, Jiang Lianzhu and the others set out to return to the village.
The carriage was small and could not carry much heavy stuff. After Jiang Lianzhu and her daughter were loaded, it was only able to carry a few hundred kilograms of rice, flour, grain and oil.
Due to the heavy load, the car was not moving fast. When encountering uneven roads, Jiang Lianzhu got out of the car holding her daughter and pushed the car.
Xue San was like a mentally retarded person, running wildly in front, behind, left and right of the carriage. When he encountered a forest on the road, Xue San would suddenly go into the mountains... After running around for a while, with branches and leaves hanging on his fur, he would suddenly come back.
So, we arrived at the village.
From a distance, I saw a group of people gathered in front of my house.
What happened?
As they approached in their carriage, they heard a woman yelling and cursing inside.
"Fourth wife, what do you mean? You are a divorced woman, how dare you stop me? This is my son's house, my fifth son's home. Now my son doesn't live in the village, he has gone to the town to enjoy a good life. We are his parents, how can we not live here? You, a divorced woman, are living in such a good home of my son, such a bright home, are you worthy? Don't bring bad luck to my son's good house!"
This is Wang Liu Pozi.
Then, there was Erya's voice, "Grandma, it was Aunt Fifth who asked us to live here. We are here to help Aunt Fifth look after the house. Even if you say anything, you won't be able to step foot inside this house. We are here to help Aunt Fifth look after the house and keep it safe."
Mrs. Wang Liu cursed angrily, "You little bitch, what nonsense are you talking about? You're just like your mother, a jinx! Our Wang family raised you up, and you're such an ungrateful person! You still have our Wang blood flowing in your veins! Who are you? Who are we? Are we your grandparents? How dare you yell at us like that? You're so uneducated! If you keep talking back like that, I'll slap you to death. You've lost your mind, you bitch who can't even speak human language!"
Erya's mother said timidly, "Mom, no matter how harshly you scold me, I won't mind. But please don't scold Erya, she's still a little girl, she's thin-skinned..."
Erya shouted, "Mother, let her curse if she wants. The more rude she is, the less virtuous she is. Anyway, even if she curses to the heavens, we can't let her live in the house. This is the house built by Fifth Aunt, and it has nothing to do with them. No matter how proud they are, it won't work. Besides, the village head kicked them out of our Wangjia Village a while ago. If she doesn't leave, I'll ask the village head to come and talk to her!"
