"No, my family is broke. You beat up my Dabao and I haven't asked you to pay for his medical expenses yet."

As soon as the question of compensation was raised, Old Jiao immediately jumped out and shouted that it was impossible to ask for money.

"Humph, Chen Dabao was the first to hurt someone. Besides, my sister is only five years old. How could she be so young as to beat a grown man like him? Who knows if she fell down herself and is trying to act pitiful?"

Qingwu spoke with disdain and stood aside.

"You're talking nonsense. She beat you with a stick."

When Chen Dabao heard this, he couldn't recognize her. He lifted her clothes while speaking, but there was nothing there except some red marks.

Chen Dabao seemed to be unconvinced. What about the injury?

He was beaten for so long and the pain almost killed him, but he wasn't injured?

Qing Ning nestled in Tan's arms, laughing secretly, "Huh, you little brat!"

"That means he suffered internal injuries."

Old Jiao is being unreasonable and just doesn't want to pay.

"In that case, let me take a look and see if you have any internal injuries."

Mr. Ma spoke in time and came in from outside.

[I have to show off at least a little bit, so I can be more confident when I ask for free meals next time.]

After saying this, without waiting for Lao Jiao and the others to react, he walked up to Chen Dabao, took his hand and carefully felt his pulse.

After touching his right hand with his left hand, he carefully touched it for a long time before putting his hand down. Everyone around him stared at him nervously.

[Humph, this old man is being mysterious. He's not on Chen Dabao's side, is he? If he dares to say anything nonsense, I'll bite him.]

Qingning's little eyes stared at Mr. Ma intently, and it was hard for Mr. Ma not to notice it. This little kid was really interesting.

"How is it, Mr. Ma? Is my Dabao in serious condition?"

Old Jiao was very anxious.

[As long as Mr. Ma says there is something wrong, not only will she not have to pay compensation, she will also bite Old Lady Chen's family into pieces]

Old Jiao did not hide the calculation in her eyes at all.

"Well, internal injuries, that's not the case."

Qing Ning was almost injured by Mr. Ma's action.

The old man was breathing heavily and didn't see how good-looking Chen Laoguai's family looked.

"No injuries? Impossible. Then wouldn't you have noticed something wrong after taking my pulse for so long?"

Old Jiao suddenly screamed and tried to grab Mr. Ma, but was pulled back by Old Chen.

"Humph, I'm responsible for treating patients when I'm examining them. What's wrong with it taking a little longer?"

He flicked his sleeves and stared at Old Jiao with dissatisfaction.

Chen Laoguai knew that he couldn't offend Mr. Ma, as someone at home had a headache or fever and needed him to treat him.

"Mr. Ma, you are a great man and don't bear grudges. I am just saying what I mean, so please don't take it seriously."

He kept forcing a smile.

"Well, Mr. Ma has seen that it's nothing serious. It's harmless for children to fight."

"Besides, Dabao was the first to grab something and push Qingning into the water, and then he insulted her. Who wouldn't have the nerve to do that? Does he mean that everyone in the world can be bullied to death by him and not fight back?"

"And you guys, you're always following Chen Dabao around, are you planning to team up and become pickpockets?"

The village chief's words were a bit harsh, but they made the other families alert.

They can be straightened even though they are still young, but it will be difficult to straighten them when they grow up. Does Chenjia Village have to rely on these brats to become famous?

"Village chief, our child won't do such things as stealing. We will discipline him when we get back and never let him act recklessly again after following Chen Dabao."

One parent immediately expressed his opinion, and several other families also repeatedly stated that they would never let their children learn bad things.

"That's better. Otherwise, get out of the village. If you don't teach good children, they will learn bad habits."

"Yes, yes, I will definitely teach you well."

Several families nodded repeatedly.

"Alright, Chen Laoguai, how much silver are you planning to pay to Qing Ning's family?"

The village chief stared at Chen Laoguai without any hesitation.

"Village chief, my sisters-in-law and I know that our family is poor and we don't have that kind of money. Can I pay you fifty cents?"

Chen Laoguai pretended to be pitiful when he spoke, but he didn't scare the people present.

"Fifty cents? You think our lives are nothing?"

Old Mrs. Chen was so angry at what Old Chen did.

"Ask Mr. Ma how much that herb cost. We spent all our savings to buy a ginseng root to save his life. How dare you ask for fifty cents? I tell you, two taels, not a cent less."

"I won't cheat you. Those medicines will cost you five taels of silver. If you don't believe me, you can go to the Renshan Hall in town and ask."

"And don't call me sister-in-law. I can't bear it."

Old Mrs. Chen spat, and felt more and more that it was right to break off the relationship. After all, they were a family. How shameless.

"You damned old woman, you're asking for too much! Why don't you just go and rob me of the two taels of silver? Chen Guihua, let me tell you, money is not as important as life."

Old Jiao rushed to Old Lady Chen and confronted her.

"I don't want your life either. If that's the case, then go to the government office, arrest your precious grandson, beat him with a stick, and then exile him."

After saying that, he ignored Old Jiao and grabbed Chen Dabao and dragged him out.

"Grandpa, grandma, mom, please save me and give her some money. I don't want to go to the county government office. I don't want to be beaten with a stick. I don't want to be exiled."

He cried so much that his face was covered with tears and snot, and his butt kept dragging backwards, which was so funny.

Qing Ning couldn't help but laugh out loud, earning a pat on the butt and a glare from Tan.

He buried his head in the crook of Tan's neck so that no one could see it, and his body was shaking. Others thought the child was crying sadly.

"Song Ge'er, Wu Ge'er, come here and hold Chen Dabao captive."

"okay"

The two men stepped forward, lifted Chen Dabao from Old Lady Chen's arms, one on each side, and dragged him out.

"Village chief, village chief, please help my Dabao."

Old Mrs. Jiao became anxious when she saw this. She couldn't take her precious grandson away, as he was the only child in the family.

"Hmph, I can't help."

The village chief didn't care anymore and let them do whatever they wanted.

"Dad, please pay me the money. Dabao is the only child of the Chen family. We can't send him to the county government office."

Xiao Jiao knew that her mother-in-law was picking at her, so she could only cry and beg her father-in-law. She went forward to try to stop them, but she was too weak and couldn't get even a single inch of her clothes dirty.

When Chen Laoguai saw this, he immediately ran forward to stop the men and shouted, "Compensation, compensation, compensation."

"Go back and get two taels of silver as compensation to my sister-in-law's family. Go quickly."

Old Jiao was unwilling, but she felt sorry for her grandson and the money, so she stood there and took root for a while.

Chen Laoguai was furious, "If you don't go, you'll go back to your mother's house."

In the end, Old Jiao had no choice but to go back and get the money unwillingly.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I'm going home to get some money. Let Dabao go."

Old Chen begged for mercy from Old Lady Chen.

Old Jiao walked quite fast, trotting over.

"Here, all the money in the house is here."

Old Jiao threw the money into Chen Laoguai's arms, and it hurt so much.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, here is the money."

He quickly handed the money to Old Mrs. Chen.

Old Mrs. Chen took the money, took a look at it, and then gave it to Mrs. Tan to keep.

"Song'er, Wu'er, let go."

As soon as Old Lady Chen gave the order, the two men let go and Chen Dabao hid behind his grandfather, not daring to show his head.

"Alright, let's forget about this. Chen Dabao, go kneel down in the ancestral hall."

Chen Laoguai wanted to say something, but the village chief simply ignored him.

"From now on, please take good care of your children. If they do something wrong, it won't always end well like it did today."

He glanced around majestically, and everyone said they understood.

He went back and gave his children all kinds of instructions without mentioning them.
