Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Beating Up the Blind Date Guy
“You lot beat my son to this state, you must compensate us for the medical expenses,” Mrs. Wang said, quivering.
Mrs. Xu scoffed, “Since you’re unwilling to admit your son had ill intentions towards my niece, let’s go to the police and let them deal with this.
The police will surely find out everything clearly. I don’t believe for a second that people living near your family don’t know what kind of person your son is.
Once they investigate, everything will be clear. We’ll make a big deal out of it, and your son will be charged with rape.”
Mrs. Wang was taken aback. She hadn’t expected a rural woman to have such guts and brains.@@@@
Aren’t villagers supposed to value reputation highly?
If this really gets to the police station, this girl’s reputation will be done for. How could she face anyone without her reputation?
She didn’t believe this family would dare to continue the ruckus and still refused to admit anything.
Mrs. Xu directly pulled Xu Jing and started walking out, “Let’s go, we’re going to the police.”
Mrs. Wang watched them leave in disbelief before she finally panicked, hurried after them, and called out, “Eldest sister, we admit to it, just tell us what to do.”
Mrs. Xu huffed coldly and then led Xu Jing back.
“Your son had ill intentions towards my niece and even tried to lay hands on her. Had my daughter not been there, my niece might have been ruined.
You’ve also frightened her terribly; you must compensate her with money.”
“Right, you caused mental harm and physical assault to my cousin; you must compensate,” Xu Jing asserted.
Mrs. Wang, just an ordinary worker, didn’t understand Xu Ying’s talk of mental trauma and physical attack, and at this moment, her earlier bravado had faded.
She was as timid as a quail now, shrinking her neck and nodding repeatedly, “You’re right, what would be a fair compensation?”
Mrs. Xu glanced at Second Aunt Xu, giving her the decision. After some hesitation, Xu Jing said, “Compensate me eighty yuan.”
Mrs. Wang gasped; that was nearly a month’s salary for her and her husband.
She wanted to negotiate, but Xu Ying cut straight to the point, “Eighty yuan. Choose between that and sending your son to the police station.”
Before Mrs. Wang could speak, Wang Liqing, with a swollen face, cried out, “Mom, I don’t want to go to jail; just give her the money.”
Mrs. Wang had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Don’t talk about tarnishing or anything; we are all one family and need to be united.
You go comfort Jingjing, she’s still a young girl, don’t let her get scared.”
Second Aunt Xu, upon hearing this, hurriedly went to find her daughter.
Mrs. Xu also took her daughter back home, originally coming to gain some experience, yet such an incident had occurred.
She didn’t know whether her daughter had been frightened.
Mrs. Xu looked at her daughter with heartache, “Those sick-minded people, not everyone is like that. There are still more good people. When you get married, mom will definitely help you choose carefully. If we can’t find someone suitable, then you don’t have to marry for a lifetime.
Mom will take care of you, and when I’m old, you’ll still have your nephews!”
Xu Ying nodded, her eyes sparkling.
When they returned home, Eldest Sister-in-law Xu had already finished work and came back. In the kitchen, a pot of pig trotters stewed, and red braised pork was fried, not very appealing in appearance but smelling delicious.
“Eldest Sister-in-law, what delicious food have you made? It smells so good!” Xu Ying smelled the scent from a distance.
Eldest Sister-in-law Xu’s cooking skills weren’t bad either, and with Xu Ying’s guidance, it had improved even more.
“Mom, little sister, you’re back, dinner is ready, just in time to eat.
I made some chicken soup with mushrooms for little sister, she isn’t feeling well right now, and some chicken soup will help her recover,” said Eldest Sister-in-law Xu, earning Mrs. Xu’s praise.
“It’s rare for you to be so thoughtful! You should eat more yourself and gain some weight, you’re so thin it looks like we mistreat you in our house,” said Mrs. Xu.
Eldest Sister-in-law Xu was pleasantly surprised. Although Mrs. Xu’s words carried a hint of disdain, she felt Mrs. Xu’s care for her.
“Thank you, Mom,” Eldest Sister-in-law Xu quickly said.
Mrs. Xu huffed and walked away awkwardly.
She felt affection for everyone in the house, but they had to live within their means. First and foremost was her daughter, followed by her husband, and then her sons and daughters-in-law.
“Hey, that smells amazing!” Second Brother Xu came home from work and was greeted by the delicious aroma, he couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
At the school, he was in charge of the food, but the taste was indescribable.
“You’re back, wash your hands and it’s time to eat,” said Mr. Xu.
Second Brother Xu scurried off to wash his hands.
