In the end, Yao Lao Wu gave Tian Yuqiao and Yuan Ji's injuries. He said it was very serious, and the result was that the family had to pay Tian Yuqiao and Yuan Ji a total of eight taels of silver for the soup.

This was all because they were all close relatives. Yao Lao Wu said that he wasn't exaggerating, otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to afford twenty liang.

Upon hearing such a huge number, everyone in the house panicked. During this period of time, my house could be said to have suffered heavy losses. Now, I have to pay a large sum of money for the soup. This is not a joke.

Madame Li just sat there and could not get up. She could take out the eight taels of silver, but once she did, the old mansion would be in danger of suffering for the rest of her life. That was not the end. That was the only coffin left between him and the old man.

The scholar still needed to pay a large sum of money after the spring break. The silver could not be touched no matter what, otherwise it would affect the future of his son.

When Tian Chanzi heard how much money he was going to pay, his expression turned even uglier and he became extremely embarrassed.

In the end, Lady Gao was the first to speak. ”I say, Village Head, we definitely won't be able to afford this silver. Besides, although they're from the same family as us, they're still our mother's daughter-in-law, aren't they? Every year, she should also give a bit of pension money to the two elders.

The Jiang family also reacted, smiling as they said to the village head and elders, ”What my sister-in-law said is reasonable. Even if they are separated, they are still the daughter-in-laws of our Tian family. ”This eight taels of silver shall be considered as five years of pension money for our parents.”

Everyone in the old residence echoed his sentiments, causing Tian Yuqiao to roll her eyes in the living room. He thought to himself, 'Damn, these people really know how to scheme. If that's the case, then their own home is actually the money that they owe the old man.'

After discussing it with the village elders, they quickly came to a conclusion.

”Ahem, after the village elders' unanimous discussion, we finally made a unanimous decision on this matter.” The village chief coughed twice to keep everyone in suspense.

Then he said, ”This eight taels of silver should be paid to the mother and daughter of the second house. Since Lady Wang hasn't remarried, we should give it to the two Tian Elders.” ”Now, this eight taels of silver shall be treated as settling the bill in one go. Two debts shall not be owed to each other. What do you think?”

”What?” ”I don't agree. You have to at least give me two taels of silver this year.” Madame Li instantly opened her mouth.

”Yeah, I don't agree either. When our thatched cottage was burnt down, we didn't ask for compensation. Now that my mother and the others have come knocking again, it's not a matter of compensation. ”I'm really worried. I'm afraid that in the future, these three people of mine will be tortured to death by people from that side of the house sooner or later.” Tian Yuqiao complained.

At this time, Mrs. Wang's head was already bandaged, and she was hugging her children as she cried.

Ah, there was nothing I could do about it. Wang Shi was born with this. If she met with something, she would cry!

However, because of her current appearance, the surrounding public opinion was biased towards Tian Yuqiao and the others.

”Even if our family doesn't need to compensate us for the medicinal soup, how do we settle the scores for the two young masters, Yuan Ji and Yuan Tong? They are all guests that were invited by our family, there's no reason for us to let our guests have bad luck with us for no reason at all, right? ” Tian Yu Qiao said.

”That's right, Young Master should pay for the soup.” The Village Chief frowned and said.
