FULL NOVELXO Chapter 22
Chapter 22
Of course, Old Madam Ning was unwilling to give her money, but the surrounding villagers were staring at her. She couldn’t reject her directly, so she cleared her throat and said, “Who will bring so many copper coins when out?”
Xiaoxiao pretended not to understand what she meant. “I don’t dare to trouble grandma. I’ll go get it for you now.” Anyway, the money today had to be paid by Old Madam Ning. Otherwise, wouldn’t she have called the doctor and village chief for nothing?
She couldn’t eat the meat, and felt sad. However, giving it to the village chief was better than giving it to the old residence. If she gave it to the people in the old residence, not only would it be of no help to her family, she might even be scolded. If she gave it to the village chief, it would be different. After all, it was for the benefit of her family.
Old Madam Ning was extremely unhappy, but looking at the village chief’s stern face, she couldn’t make a scene. Hence, she kept winking at Second Aunt Ning. “What money does this little girl have? You go ahead.”
Madam Song had just helped Ning Fengnian to apply the medicine in the room. When she heard the commotion and came out, Second Aunt Ning had already turned around and left reluctantly. Xiaoxiao pulled Ning Erlang over and winked at him with her back facing them. “Brother, we forgot to pour a glass of water for Uncle Village Chief. How dare we!”
Ning Erlang immediately understood and ignored the village chief’s refusal. He quickly entered the house and poured a cup of hot water. He even gritted his teeth and added a small spoonful of honey.
The village chief also sat down to smell the rare sweetness in the cup. Ning Erlang also poured a cup for Old Madam Ning. He forcefully pulled her into the courtyard to drink water. Of course, her cup was just ordinary plain water.contemporary romance
When Xiaoxiao arrived at the old residence, Second Aunt Ning entered the house faster than her. She was so nimble that she did not look like a pregnant woman who had been pregnant for a few months. She was in a hurry to discuss it with the head of the family.
They could pay, but they still had to be calculative about how much they had to pay and make the eldest branch return it.
Without Xiaoxiao and her family, the old residence was much more spacious and messy. No one had cleaned up the dust and debris on the ground, and the strange smell and dirty things in the chicken coop were even harder to ignore. Xiaoxiao simply did not understand how this group of people could endure it.
She looked around the courtyard and saw that no one was around. She was about to knock on the main room door when she heard whispers coming from the second room.
First, Second Aunt Ning asked uneasily, “Master, what do you think of this?”
Then, Second Uncle Ning said angrily, “If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have hit his head with that stick…”
Xiaoxiao stopped in her tracks, and her expression instantly turned cold.
She nimbly moved to the side of the second room and found a window to squat down. She could hear more clearly from here.
Second Aunt Ning’s sharp voice made Xiaoxiao’s face turn cold. Second Aunt Ning said, “Why don’t you use a little more strength and kill him? It’s better than dragging us down like this occasionally.”
They had to give a large amount of copper coins to the eldest. Just thinking about it made her angry.
Xiaoxiao clenched her fists and used all her strength to avoid breaking in. She forced herself to maintain her rationality. Although she wanted to beat the two bastards to death, she was still young and could not beat the two tall and burly bastards. Moreover, even if she told them about this, these two people would not admit it. They might even accuse her and slander their family.
She needed evidence that could not give them a chance to quibble.
Second Uncle Ning snorted. “What do you know? Hurting people and killing people is far different. Would the village chief and junior officer have ignored this matter if he had lost his life then? If this matter reaches the government office, even if I know a bailiff, this matter can’t be suppressed. At that time, who knows their methods and if they will discover the truth.”
