Chapter 670: Did Not Want to Compensate
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Ma Yan heard the word ‘money’, she became sensitive and quickly said something to change her mind.
“He doesn’t have money, but as parents, you can repay this amount of money. Second aunt, besides offering condolences to the old man, you should have come back for the autumn harvest, right?!”
Yun Xi looked into the distance. The sky was already dark, and she could not see the crops on the land outside. However, Ma Yan understood the meaning in Yun Xi’s eyes.
“You should ask the one who burned down your house! It’s not like I burned down your house, so why should I pay you for the money I spent on farming?”
Previously, when they came to borrow money, it was their child who was sick, so Ma Yan asked them to lend some money. Now that Yun Zhu caused trouble, the family also has to compensate for it.”
!!
“Yun Lang, come over and help me carry the sheep over. I’ve raised you so well since you were young, now is the time to use you.”
When Yun Gang saw that they were quarreling again, he felt that this quarrel would not stop for a while. Yun Gang did not care about his own business and hung it high up in the sky.
What was burned was not his own house, and he had nothing to do with this matter from the beginning to the end. Therefore, all he could see was that roasted lamb that had been properly handled.
“A portion of your family’s land should belong to Yun Zhu, right? Even if you don’t want to acknowledge this child and don’t want to pay this compensation for him, then the harvest from his own land should be able to compensate for the damage to our house.”
Ma Yan’s mouth was once again gagged.
“Let’s eat the roasted whole sheep first! We will definitely compensate you, but even if we take out the money now, the house will not be repaired immediately. So let’s focus on the matter at hand first!”
Ma Yan did not know how to refute it, so she could only change the topic first. Yun Gang saw that someone had finally noticed his presence, so he quickly called everyone over to help. After all, the strength of a child was limited.
Under Yun Gang’s leadership, everyone finally sat down peacefully and ate a whole roasted lamb.
The house of Yun Shan’s family had been burned down by the fire, so the family could only move into Old Madam’s house now.
In order to show more hospitality, Yun Gang proposed to bring the Old Madam to his own house, so that Yun Shan’s family could live more comfortably.
After all, in the end, Yun Gang and Ma Yan really could not decide who would take care of the Old Madam first. The Old Madam would naturally be more willing to stay with the family that she favored.
After the meal, Yun Qiao was pulled into the grocery room by Ma Yan to discuss some matters.
“You saw what happened today. As an older brother, you should help your younger brother clean up the aftermath.”
Ma Yan had specially called Yun Qiao over because of the matter of compensation that Yun Xi had brought up today.
“I know that you soldiers give out subsidies every month. Previously, you also mailed the subsidies home. However, since you left with Luo Chen last time, you haven’t sent money home. The army provides food and accommodation for you. I don’t think you need much money.”
Ma Yan had yet to get to the main topic, but Yun Qiao had already guessed what she wanted to say.
“I’ve already used all the money. The army organizes cultural studies and I need to buy books, so the subsidies given out have already been used as book fees.”
Yun Qiao guessed that Ma Yan wanted him to return the housing compensation to Yun Shan’s family. Yun Qiao lied to Ma Yan. In fact, the subsidies were used for books.
Yun Qiao knew that Luo Chen was going to have a birthday soon, so he saved up the subsidies and wanted to buy her a decent birthday present.
Yun Qiao naturally did not want to take out the money first, so he rejected the idea before Ma Yan could say the rest.
Ma Yan understood Yun Qiao very well. When Yun Qiao lied, he did not dare to look straight into people’s eyes and liked to glance around.
Ma Yan could tell at a glance that Yun Qiao was lying again. Yun Qiao must have some money in his hands.
“Why have you become so selfish now? That’s your biological brother, and he’s disabled now. If our family doesn’t be considerate to him a little more, no one will be able to be considerate to him. So if you don’t repay his debt, he’ll probably be taken to prison by Yun Xi.”
