Lai Jinniang and Zhou Fugui smiled brightly and nodded repeatedly.
“You’re right, Landlord Wan. You’re really wise.”
“This little b*tch broke my grandson’s face. I don’t know if there’s any other injury that they have. I want them to pay for my grandson’s medical fees.”
Lai Jinniang looked as if they were the rightful party. No one knew where her confidence came from.
“They have to compensate us with at least five taels of silver!”
After saying that, she looked down her nose at Zhou Xiaoli and the others.
As expected, she had asked for a large sum of money.
Zhou Yu and Zhang Lan frowned.
Zhou Xiaoli gave them a reassuring look.
Glass was called glazed glass in this world, and it was not cheap. Zhou Yu and Zhang Lan had never seen it before, so they naturally did not know about the price, but it did not mean that Zhou Xiaoli did not know.
Then, she smiled and agreed. “Okay, we’ll compensate you.”
With that, she took out five taels of silver and gave it to Lai Jinniang.
“Li’er?”
“Sister!”
Zhang Lan, Zhou Yu, and Zhou Junjun looked at Zhou Xiaoli at the same time. Lai Jinniang asked for so much money. She was obviously trying to extort them.
Zhou Junjun regretted his actions. He was wrong. He was the one who caused this trouble, but his family had to help him settle the consequences.
He did not want his family to fork out money. Five taels of silver was enough for him to study for more than half a year!
“Sis, don’t give it to her. I scratched Zhou Anfu and Zhou Anle’s faces. They’re just superficial wounds.”
Zhou Xiaoli patted his shoulder and looked at Lai Jinniang. “I’ve already paid you the medical fees. Let’s talk about the compensation to my family.”
Lai Jinniang didn’t realize the seriousness of the problem and immediately said, “Okay, tell me, how much is this lousy thing worth?” Zhou Xiaoli sneered and made a number with her hand. “20 taels.”
“What!”
Lai Jinniang’s eyes widened. “20 taels? Why don’t you go rob someone?” This little b*tch was worse than her!
Zhou Xiaoli shrugged her shoulders. “I’m not like some person who intentionally asks for more compensation. This thing is Glazed Glass. The cheapest Glazed Glass Cup costs more than 10 taels of silver each. The most expensive one costs more than 100 taels of silver. If you don’t believe me, ask Landlord Wan. Landlord Wan is experienced and knowledgeable. He definitely knows about it.”
Lai Jinniang and Zhou Fugui still thought that Zhou Xiaoli was just taking the opportunity to blackmail them.
“What glazed glass? I’ve never heard of it. Was it gold! Why was it so expensive!”
Landlord Wan, who was sitting at one side, said, “Miss Zhou is right. This is glazed glass. Although it’s colorless, it looks like a high-quality product. 20 taels isn’t much to pay for such a product.”
Lai Jinniang and Zhou Fugui swallowed their saliva.
“How is that possible? How can this be glazed glass? How can this family of debt collectors afford to use such a thing and casually use it to make a hot water bottle?”
As soon as he said this, Zhou Xiaoli did not react, but Landlord Wan’s face darkened.
“Why? Do you think I’m lying to you? I’m not highly educated but I happen to have a glazed glass product at home and that’s why I know what glazed glass looks like.”
The mayor walked out of his corner with a smile. “Alright, Madam Lai, you’ve agreed to compensate each other for your respective losses. Let’s talk about the money payable to the Zhou family now.”
Lai Jinniang and Zhou Fugui did not want to give it to them, but they were at the mayor’s house.
However, they didn’t have that much money!
After her eldest son’s medicine shop was sealed, their family never recovered from the loss. Now, all of her money was spent and her two grandsons could no longer afford to go to a private school as well.
By asking her to take out the money now, wasn’t it akin to killing her?
However, Zhou Xiaoli did not want to let her go. “Since that’s the case, you can give us whatever you have now. We’ll write an IOU with the mayor and
Landlord Wan as our witnesses.. You can take your time to pay us back!”
