131 Chapter 129: Compensate Me with 10 Taels of Silver

"We can't skimp on what is owed! But we should refuse excessive demands!" Mrs. Tan nodded confidently before changing the topic.

They were chatting and laughing about interesting happenings at the county and shop level, the atmosphere was fantastic.

Mrs. Liu's maid, Shaoyao, quickly rushed in.

"Ma'am, Miss Xiao'er, our young masters and cousins are arguing with the villagers!"

"What happened?" Xiao'er was the first to get up and walk out.

The others also followed suit.

"Mr. Xie said the argument started because a child fell and injured themselves but blames our family!"

A kiddo falls and injures himself and it's our fault? Preposterous! It's true, when the forest is big enough, all birds find a home in it!

They reached the scene and saw Aunt Wang forcefully stopping Jingrui from leaving.

"Quickly bring me ten taels of silver, only then will I let him go! If not, I'll have him hauled before the government! Then you'll have to compensate and receive a beating on top of that!"
