Second Madam Lai shivered she looked at Su Wan and then glanced at her whip before taking a step back. She stamred, " But… But I did help you and you did not even sleep with that man." So why was there a need for this matter to be settled?
Su Wan snorted coldly as she stated, " Thats because my husbands are more skilled than you think, one of them taught to knock you out in a single hit and the other handed antidotes such that you will not succeed, do you think that with the amount of aphrodisiac your family gave , I would have escaped unscathed? It would have been impossible!"
With that said, she smacked the whip on the ground causing a small crack to appear. She looked at Second Madam Lai angrily before saying, " Tell , how are we going to settle this matter? Don't even think about shirking responsibility, I will not allow you to do that."
When Second Madam Lai saw that a crater appeared on the ground with just a swing of Su Wan's hit, she shivered. She thought to herself, what made her think that she could deal with this woman? Why was she so foolish as to think that she could bully this woman?
She shivered from head to toe before stamring, " You… you can tell what you want… I will do it. As long as you let off, I am going to do anything."
When she thought of how her son in law cried in pain and agony every ti he was laid on the bed, Second Madam Lai wanted to cry. She did not want to be whipped in a similar fashion as her son-in-law.
If she was whipped then not only would she suffer but she would also get scars on her body. Second Madam Lai had never suffered like this when she was young. She did not want to suffer when she was a bag of bones either!
She still had to live a long life to make sure that her daughter did not suffer in the Lai family.
Su Wan raised a brow and then patted Little ow on the head before picking him up and placing him on her lap. She looked at Second Madam Lai and then stated, " If you were this smart from the beginning then nothing like this would have happened, makes one pity you for your stupidity."
Second Madam Lai: "…"
" Anyway, I will not kill you as long as you listen to ," Su Wan stated casually as if she had not just ntioned killing soone.
Tremors wrecked on Second Madam Lai's spine as she nodded like a chicken pecking rice and said, " I… I will listen to you just tell what I need to do, I swear I will not do anything against you."
This wretched woman was really ruthless. If she dared to say that she would kill then she would dare to really kill her!
Only then did Su Wan retract the whip that was lying on the ground and look at Second Madam Lai with a smile on her face.
" Second Madam Lai, I don't know when your family is going to Madam Ding's house and propose a marriage to her but there is sothing that I need you to do."
With a curl of her lip, she leaned back on her chair and stated, " I want you to go to Madam Ding's house and tell her that she needs to demand a dowry of two thousand taels of silver from the Lai family."
" The sharing will be like this, one thousand for and the rest of one thousand would be left for you two to share, you can share the rest of the money as you want."
The mont she finished speaking, Second Madam Lai was stunned. She looked at Su Wan and then said, " What did you say? Two… two thousand taels?"
Here she was thinking that Su Wan would say five hundred taels but she was a step ahead of her! She straightforwardly asked for two thousand taels! Did she even know how much money two thousand taels of silver was? Even an official's daughter did not demand that much!
Who was Madam Ding to receive such an honour?
" Co on you are reacting as if I asked you to bring two thousand taels of gold," Su Wan rolled her eyes. She coldly sneered at Second Madam Lai and then stated, " I was the one whose reputation was almost ruined by your family, it's only right that you bring so ntal compensation.
Usually, I talk in gold but I know that your family will go in shock if I ask for gold which is why I am taking pity on you guys."
Second Madam Lai: "…" Thank you so much.
" Anyway, what I was saying was that you need to make Madam Ding snatch these two thousand tales from your family and in return you need to tell her that there was no need for her to pay any sort of dowry to the Lai family—-"
" Why?!" Second Madam Lai thought that even if they were handing two thousand taels they could make up for so if Madam Ding brought money and dowry with her.
" Why?" Su Wan sneered with a curl of her lips. She looked at Second Madam Lai and then stated coldly, " Fourth Lai molested a woman, he is taking responsibility for his actions for the sake of his redemption. This is not so sort of marriage where they can follow normal norms."

" But still bringing no dowry… it's too much... I am afraid that my sister will not agree," Second Madam Lai knew how dissatisfied her sister was with this marriage, if she were to ask Madam Ding to raise such conditions then her sister might as well call off the wedding.
" Then it's your responsibility to make them convinced, don't forget that you will be getting five hundred taels of pure silver if you succeed."
