Chapter 177: Chapter 177 Can’t Co Up with the Money
The farce ended with the mother being carried back ho by the Yu Family.
The villagers had watched a great drama unfold. It would likely take several months for the matter to settle down and quickly beca the hottest topic in Daye Village over tea and als.
In the end, Yue Jiandong escorted Gun Ming to the village entrance and gave him the agreed-upon reward.
But Gun Ming laughed and pushed it back, “These past few days the als at Yue Family’s were exceptionally good, full of at every al, just consider it as al expenses.”
He wasn’t there for the money, but entirely because he hated Tao Huamao.
Initially, in the factory, Tao Huamao had been jealous over a female worker and picked a fight with him.
He repeatedly gave in, but the other party, taking advantage of his drunkenness, ruined one of his eyes.
Gun Ming demanded three thousand Yuan, purely to bring ruin to Tao Huamao’s family, because no amount of money could bring his eye back.
Unexpectedly, Tao Huamao’s sister had married into the relatively affluent Yu Family of Daye Village, who managed to scrape together the money.
The money couldn’t erase Gun Ming’s hatred, so when Yue Jiandong ca to him, he agreed without a second thought to help out.
Seeing the outco for the Yu Family with his own eyes, he felt very satisfied!
On the other hand, the Yu Family urgently called Yu Yaxian back from the city to discuss the matter together.
Yu Yaxian sobbed, “Mom, I absolutely cannot go to jail. I’m about to take the college entrance exam. Once I beco a college student and marry Qiming, our family can rise again. But if I go to jail, my life is over.”
Yu’s mother’s forehead was covered with a dark plaster, and her eyes were lifeless.
Seeing her mother not speaking, Yu Siyuan said anxiously, “Uncle, originally it was because of your problem that our family resorted to this asure. You cannot just ignore this.”
Tao Huamao’s eyeballs whirled, but he did not respond.
Yu Deyou sneered and produced an IOU.
“Huamao, this was the IOU you wrote back then, you owe the Yu Family exactly two thousand Yuan, you haven’t forgotten, have you?”
Tao Huamao was startled and imdiately looked towards Yu’s mother, but she still had that vacant expression.
Yu Deyou humd in his heart, thankful he had wisely kept the IOU in case Tao Huamao denied the debt.
Yu’s mother cried and fussed over it repeatedly, but he didn’t destroy the IOU, just in case it might serve a purpose one day.
And indeed, it had co in handy.
With the IOU in their possession, Tao Huamao could only grit his teeth and say, “Let’s ask the village chief to diate. We’ll see how much money Yue Family wants to not take us to court, and I’ll try to gather so funds.”
Although the village chief disdained the Yu Family’s deceitful marriage behavior, as the village chief, he didn’t want the matter to escalate to the courtroom either.
After all, in those days, suing soone in the village was still considered a shaful act.
The Yue Family had already discussed this outco.
Yue Jiannan had ntioned that suing the Yu Family was more about scaring them.
The elder brother had also consulted a lawyer known to Zheng Tianbo, and it seed proving such a case in court would be challenging.
They could at most order the Yu Family to return the substantial expenses of the Yue Family.
Therefore, Lin Chunju planned to take advantage of the Yu Family’s guilty and confused state, and have them return everything with interest.
After several rounds of discussion, it was decided that the Yu Family must return one thousand eight hundred Yuan to the Yue Family, otherwise they would et in court.
Seeing the Yue Family would not budge, Yu’s mother just sat on the ground after returning ho.
“How will we handle so much money? The Yue Family is too rciless, showing no regard for three years of relationship. Demanding so much as soon as they spoke, it’s like they want to take a piece of flesh from .”
Yu Siyuan angrily said, “It’s not just a piece of flesh, they want to swallow us whole, skin and all.”
The Yu Family, furious, smashed many plates and bowls, wishing that the Yue Family would drop dead.
Yet they didn’t consider what they’d have beco if not for the Yue Family’s cleverness.
Yu Yaxian, having no other options, had to make a last-ditch effort, “I’ll go talk to Yue Jiannan again.”
That man was very soft-hearted, maybe she could persuade him.
