Chapter 795: Compensation

Translator: Henyee Translations   Editor: Henyee Translations

Ms. Mi Junior gritted her teeth. “…yes.”

“Then how do you plan to make amends?”

Ms. Mi Junior’s eyes widened.

Another compensation?

She had already sacrificed 10,000 liang, and now she was being asked for more?

First Madame spoke up, “Xuan was fortunate not to encounter any harm. However, the maids did attempt to harm her. If something had actually happened, do you think a mere maid would have sufficed to resolve the matter? Xuan is the wife of the Provincial Champion, and Provincial

Champion Shao happens to be a close friend of Young Master Xie, who is a

guest of the Xie Family!”

She was implying that if something had truly befallen Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan might turn to the influential Xie Family, who could delve deeper into the situation and involve more individuals than just the maid.

After Shao Yunduan became the Provincial Champion, Xie Jingrong had proudly publicized their friendship. Shao Yunduan even received an invitation to visit the esteemed Xie Family.

The Xie Family highly valued their a.s.sociation with a Provincial Champion, and Xie Jingrong had always spoken highly of him.

Under the weight of First Madame’s influence, Ms. Mi Junior quickly retreated.

“l will compensate Mrs. Shao with 5,000 liang for the trouble she encountered..

“Only 5,000?” “What about 8,000?”

“Just 8,000?”

“10,000 then? Isn’t that enough?”

“Is a mere 10,000 enough for attempted murder?”

Ms. Mi Junior’s fury intensified, causing her heart to ache. “Then state the amount! ” “50,000 liang!’

“What!

First Madame stated the sum calmly, nearly choking Ms. Mi Junior with the weight of it.

Madame Qiao and her daughters were all taken aback, stunned by the staggering figure.

Qiao Wei felt tears welling up, unable to comprehend the magnitude of 50,000 liang.

Qiao Kou’s eyes darted to Qiao Xuan, a mix of jealousy and envy coursing through her. 50,000 liang? That was an exorbitant sum. While they might not be able to afford such an amount, the compensation would certainly be substantial.

How fortunate was this detestable woman to receive such staunch defense from First Madame…

Though the Yuezheng Family possessed wealth, Ms. Mi Junior herself had limited resources. She sneered, “Why not just rob me outright, Elder Sister-in-law?”

First Madame inwardly responded, “Yes, I am essentially robbing you. So what?”

“I’ve already told you, Xuan is the wife of the Provincial Champion!”

She was not some obscure figure. She held the esteemed t.i.tle of the Provincial Champion’s wife! Her young husband had achieved the remarkable feat of becoming a Provincial Champion in his very first attempt at the examination—an incredibly rare accomplishment.

He possessed a bright and promising future!

However, her husband would never tolerate his wife being framed and almost killed by someone from the Yuezheng Family. Unless they offered the most sincere apology and took into consideration the implications for First Madame and Yuezheng Xiao, they would not let this matter go.

Ms. Mi Junior found herself at a loss for words, growing increasingly irritated.

“But I don’t have that much cash…

“That is not my concern.”

In the end, Ms. Mi Junior had no choice but to reluctantly agree to provide the cash to Qiao Xuan within three days.

First Madame added, “You must also offer a formal apology.”

“What!

Ms. Mi Junior exclaimed, “Elder Sister-in-law, this is going too far!”

First Madame shot her a cold glance. “You made a mistake, and yet you are unwilling to apologize? Either you or Ting will suffice.”

Yuezheng Ting had already been silenced by fear. She dared not make a move or defend herself, keeping her head lowered as if oblivious to the proceedings.

Elder Aunt was the person she feared the most.

Elder Aunt had always disregarded petty matters. She paid no attention to their minor schemes and deceit. However, when she set her mind to something, no one could surpa.s.s her.

Yuezheng Ting had been well aware of this for quite some time…

But she was unwilling to apologize to Qiao Xuan.

It was utterly humiliating!

She was a young girl who cherished her reputation and dignity.. She couldn’t bear the thought of losing face!
