The village chief felt that Liu Duo had become more daring than ever. How dare she tell him what he should do?

But he didn't deny what she said, for she was right. He had to find out the truth behind everything before passing judgement. He had nothing more to say, and he didn't take Grandmother Liu's side, as he slowly got up and left.

Grandmother Liu immediately begged him to stay, for she hadn't gotten her money!

"Chief, you can't leave. They haven't compensated."

Liu Quanyan went to beg too, "Chief, however things may seem, she did attack me, and on that particular body part, so I have to see a doctor!"

"Aye, if you hadn't started it, Liu Liushi wouldn't have retaliated. If you really need medical compensation, ask from her yourself! I have other things to do!"

With that, he let go of their hands and left quickly.

He left Liu Quanyan and Grandmother Liu staring at each other in disbelief!

Their eyes met and, after a while, they went on to lash out at Liu Duo, "If you don't give us money today, we won't leave!"

They wouldn't be able to fix Liu Qing's broken leg if they didn't get the money, so they couldn't give up.

Liu Duo ignored them.

She thought the village chief had done a good job. He didn't get mad over a little criticism.

She went on with her work. She had wasted the villagers' time making them wait.

Ye Ling and the gang ignored the two people too. Ye Ling stayed by Liu Duo's side, preventing them from making a move on her.

Liu Ran stayed on her other side, keeping an eye on the two like a mini adult.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye. Grandmother Liu and Liu Quanyan remained in the yard.

Ye Liu and the guys returned on the ox-cart. Ye Mo saw the two and immediately showed disdain. Ye Liu and Li Wazi did not react as strongly.

"What are you here for, old hag? You better leave before I let you have it!" Ye Mo said to them once he got down from the cart.

By the time the two men of the household returned, Grandmother Liu and Liu Quanyan were obviously lethargic.

But Grandmother Liu held it in when she thought of Liu Qing, "Liu Duo, that wretched girl, beat us up! We demand compensation, or else..."

She nagged on. The three men looked at Liu Duo, wondering what had happened.

Liu Ran ran in front of Ye Liu and was about to give a report when he heard Ye Mo's retort. He was not amused. "Compensation? Like hell you'll get it! If my wife beats you up, that must mean you deserved it!"

"Get out of my sight, or I'll beat you myself!" Then, he balled his fists for all to see.

He didn't need to know what really happened, so he couldn't tell right from wrong. But the wife was right, even when she was not!

Ye Liu patted Liu Ran on the head before grinning at Grandmother Liu, "You forced our Little Duo to make a move? That means she's injured her delicate hands now, so you're the ones who should pay her back! Hand over the money now! Not much, ten taels of silver will do, otherwise don't you think about leaving here in one piece!"

He walked a few paces closer, grinning as though he hadn't said anything.

Liu Duo felt blissful to have men like them on her side. They would support her no matter what and agree that whatever she did was right!

"What? That wretched girl beat us up, and we have to pay?" Grandmother Liu responded in shock and disbelief.

Ye Liu nodded, "Of course! You heard it right, so don't look at us like that! Makes me sick just seeing it. Come on, hand over the money. Don't waste my time!"

Whichever way they looked at it, that old face full of wrinkles and eyes staring back in shock, was terribly revolting.
