Seeing him lying on the ground like a dead pig, Ruyi kicked him again and looked at him sinisterly. “Dog, be obedient in the future. Otherwise, you won’t be able to enter the examination hall for the rest of your life!”
Li Fengqi buried his head in the crook of his arm and listened to Ruyi’s footsteps gradually fade away before getting up. He grabbed a bamboo before he shook and kicked it hard to vent. “Wretched slave, just you wait.”
He let go of the bamboo in exhuastion. With a bang, he was rebounded by the stem on his head. He felt dizzy and fell to the ground. “Even you bullied me…”
Li Fengqi sat in the forest for a long time. When he returned home and saw the old woman from the Zhou family, he was furious. Without even looking at Laidi, he went into the next room and did not come out.
When Laidi woke up, she cried when she thought of her child and Li Fengqi’s heartlessness.
BoxNovel.comGranny Chen looked at her and persuaded, “Miss Cousin, you’re still young. It’s more important for you to recuperate first. If you cry and ruin your health, you’ll be at a disadvantage in the future.”
Laidi cried, “Nanny, I’m crying that I’ve grown eyes for nothing…”
“How can one not make mistakes when you’re young? You still have a long way to go!”
Granny Chen looked at Laidi and thought about how Li Fengqi had returned without even looking at her. She felt that not only was she blind in her judgment, but she was also blind in her heart. To think she even wept for kind of man. She looked smart but loved foolishly.
Li Fengqi lay on the bed. When he heard crying from next door, he pulled up the blanket in disgust and covered his head.
After Country Lord Ning returned to the residence, she sat in a daze for a while before making up her mind. She found Butler Wei and said, “Get Granny Song to bring the silver to the Yang family and tell them that as long as they agree to withdraw the complaint, I’ll give them double the compensation.
Also, quickly send someone to release the bank and collect the money. If we really can’t afford it, I’d rather not get the profits and get my capital back.”
Butler Wei was shocked. “Madam, did something happen? If we release the silver, we won’t be able to get it back until the end of the month. It’s due in a few days. If we take it back now, we’ll lose a lot of silver.”
Ning Xiangjun told Butler Wei about Princess Yichun’s withdrawal and said hatefully, “She must have heard some news and knows that we’re being targeted. Remember to save the capital first. Hurry up and burn those accounts. Hurry up!”
“Yes, Madam. After Butler Wei left, he sent Granny Song to the Yang family and rushed to the back alley.
When Granny Song arrived at the Yang family’s house, Yang Jian blocked her outside the shop. “Old thing, how dare you come?” Granny Song blushed. “I’m here to discuss something.”
“Let her in,” Father Yang said to his son.
Granny Song walked into the shop and still arrogant. She said to Shopkeeper Yang in a charitable tone, “My Madam said that as long as you withdraw your complaint, the loan receipt and this silver is all yours. You won’t be able to earn more than 2,000 taels of silver in your lifetime.”
As he spoke, she took out the banknotes and placed them on the small wooden table in front of Father Yang.
Father Yang, Mother Yang, and Yang Jian did not expect Granny Song to be here to make peace. Looking at the banknotes and loan receipts on the table, thev did not react for a moment.
“Pfft!” Yang Yi rushed up and spat at her. “You heartless old woman. My Yang family doesn’t care about your stinky money.”
Granny Song looked at Yang Yi and sneered. “I advise you to be smart. Let me tell you, even if you win the lawsuit, your family won’t get many benefits. Now that you have more than a thousand taels of silver for no reason, you can live anywhere. If you know what’s good for you, accept the silver and withdraw the complaint.”
Father Yang and the Yang family looked at the banknotes on the table and looked at each other.
Mother Yang pulled Father Yang into the house. “I’m worried that even if we win the lawsuit, it won’t be good. We might as well take this silver and sell the shop to move to the countryside like Father-in-law said before he died. We can buy some fields and take on some work to help others set up some lanterns. There will also be silver for Brother Yi to study.”
Father Yang hesitated and frowned. “Let me think about it.” Yang Yi walked into the room and looked at his parents. He said unhappily, “Father, Mother, you can’t agree to that bitch. Look at her. She’s already afraid of us when she saw us sue. Besides, with Lord Zhou and Mr. Qian helping us, we’ll be fine.”
Shopkeeper Yang was still uneasy. Looking at Yang Yi’s resentful gaze, he made up his mind. “Brother Yi, as the saying goes, the poor don’t fight with the rich, and the rich don’t fight with the officials. Since Country Lord Ning is willing to return the loan receipt and compensate us with silver, Father feels that it’s already not bad. Son! Listen to Father. Let’s withdraw the complaint, sell the shop, and bring Grandpa’s ashes back to the countryside to settle down.”
Looking at Father Yang’s pleading gaze, Yang Yi hugged his head and squatted on the ground without saying anything else.
Father Yang walked out and looked at the banknotes and IOUs. He glanced at Granny Song. “Alright, we’ll withdraw the complaint now.”
“Shopkeeper Yang is a smart person who understands the situation.” Granny Song glanced at the Yang family and slowly stood up to leave.
Father Yang brought Yang Yi to the Wen family to find Mr. Qian. He explained his intentions with a red face.
Mr. Qian looked at them and smiled faintly. “We won the lawsuit by getting compensation. Let’s go! I’ll accompany you to withdraw the lawsuit.”
There was a penalty for withdrawing the complaint. Yang Yi was beaten 20 times, and the Yang family withdrew the complaint as they wished.
Mr. Qian did not ask for the money from the Yang family. He turned around and went to the Ministry of Revenue’s office. He said to Zhou Jia, “Master, the Yang family indeed accepted the compensation from Country Lord Ning and went to the government office to withdraw the complaint. It seems that wealth still moves people’s hearts!”
Zhou Jia was not surprised by this. He smiled faintly and said, “To the Yang family, I think this is the best outcome. You don’t have to pay attention to the Yang family in the future.”
After Mr. Qian agreed, he sighed and said, “Sigh! In this world, one has no power or influence. Even being good-looking is a burden.”
Zhou Jia smiled at him. “Don’t worry, you’re very safe.”
“Hehe!” Mr. Qian rubbed his face. “Master, Shopkeeper Chu should make a move now, right?”
Zhou Jia said, “As long as someone from Country Lord Ning’s residence goes to that house, they will attack.”
When Butler Wei arrived at the house in the back alley, a tall man with a thin face and a wide forehead went forward and reported, “Uncle Wei, Liu Quan and Xiao Changqing didn’t return last night. I sent someone to take a look. There’s no one at his house.”
Butler Wei felt that something was wrong. Only then did he really believe Country Lord Ning’s words that they were really targeted. His heart ached when he thought about how so much money would be confiscated.
“Wei Cai, quickly bring people out and take back the silver we released.
Remember not to cause trouble and make it clear to those people. Take as
much as you can!”
Wei Cai widened his eyes at Butler Wei and said anxiously, “Uncle, it’s already the 27th today. Can’t we wait two days? If we gather them now, we’ll lose a lot of money! ”
Butler Wei patted his back and shouted, “Go quickly. If you’re any later, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to get the capital back.”
“I asked you what was going on, but you didn’t tell me. You just asked me to collect the silver in advance. Unfortunately, there’s so much money!” Wei Cai muttered and went in to call for help.
The officials and secret guards hiding around saw Butler Wei enter the courtyard and rushed in under Wei Qing’s lead..
