Chapter 379: Compensation, turns out to be 52!
Wang Cuihua could never have imagined that her mother would beat her because of silver!
The Queen Mother slapped him, still not satisfied: "I think you killed Zhuo Youcai! You killed Zhuo Youcai, looted all the money in the house, and returned to your mother's house! When we were not here, you looted your mother's house thoroughly, and then you got all this money!"
"No! No! You are talking nonsense! That's all my silver! It's all my silver! Give it back to me!" When Wang Cuihua heard her mother mention that she was the one who killed Zhuo Youcai, she immediately panicked!
She didn't even tell me how her mother knew!
He forgot to cry and stood up to grab the banknotes.
The Queen Mother pushed her to the ground with all her might, and said viciously, "You said it was your money, then try to make them respond to you! Humph! All this is my money!"
"Evidence? Yes! I have evidence! I have it, I have it, I have it! I really have evidence to prove that those banknotes and small change are all mine!"
Wang Cuihua sat on the ground, shouting and fumbling in her arms in panic.
After a while, he took out a crumpled object from the corner of his clothes.
She unfolded it carefully.
When the Queen Mother saw this, she thought it was still a silver note, so she quickly reached out and snatched it away.
However, when she looked at the paper carefully, she found that it was much larger than an ordinary silver note.
"What is this?" asked the Queen Mother in confusion.
"This is the evidence. Look, it says here: compensation, fifty taels of silver." Wang Cuihua said, pointing to the words on the paper.
Although the Queen Mother didn't know many words, she could still clearly recognize the amount of silver. Sure enough, it was written "fifty taels"!
"You said this is compensation? Fifty taels?" The Queen Mother opened her mouth in surprise, and she couldn't believe her eyes! She had never thought that there would be such a large amount of compensation, and her heart was filled with shock and confusion.
Wang Cuihua took advantage of her mother's distraction and came up to snatch her things.
He put it in his arms and held it tightly: "Yes! Compensation! Fifty taels! It's written in black and white on the government office! It's also stamped with the official seal of Lin County! It's my money!"
She thought her mother would not give up, but she slowly sat down on the edge of the kang and said, "Daya, mother knows."
The Queen Mother stopped and no longer tried to snatch the silver from Wang Cuihua.
Her brows were tightly furrowed and her eyes were narrowed, as if she was thinking about something.
Wang Cuihua didn't dare to get too close, but seeing her mother like this, she couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what happened?"
The Queen Mother came back to her senses, took a deep breath, and then let it out for a long time. Then she picked up the rag not far away and slapped the upper of her shoe twice as if to vent her anger. She said angrily: "Well, that damn dog official told us that the compensation was only five taels of silver, but you clearly had a full fifty taels in your hand! In this case, the remaining forty-five taels must have been embezzled by that conscienceless guy! This damn dog official!"
It was originally agreed that the compensation for the three of them would belong to them, while the share for the deceased Zhuo Youcai would go to that corrupt official.
Even if she didn't understand the ins and outs of this, she could easily tell that Zhuo Youcai's compensation was more than that of the three of them.
But her two sons were not up to the task, and their family was controlled by that corrupt official. She had no choice but to give up the lion's share. She would be satisfied as long as she could get back what she had for the three of them.
Who would have thought that the corrupt official would go back on his word!
Fifty taels!
That’s a full fifty taels of silver!
The three of them, mother and daughter, should get one hundred and fifty taels in total!
Since their daughter's compensation had been handed over to the clerk, and they themselves received nothing, there was no doubt that the corrupt official was worried that they would see the amount of the compensation, so he secretly hid it!
"What? Mom, do you have compensation too?"
"It's not just us, Zhuo Youcai has it too!"
Hearing this, Wang Cuihua's eyes suddenly lit up!
"Mom! Then I will apply for Zhuo Youcai's compensation tomorrow. I am his wife, so his compensation should belong to me!"
"Okay! We'll go our separate ways tomorrow!" Since that corrupt official was so cruel and embezzled the compensation money that belonged to their family, don't blame her for being unjust!
Anyway, it was the other party who broke the agreement first!
Not only did she want to take back what belonged to the three of them, she also supported her daughter in asking for Zhuo Youcai's!
These should have been theirs!
The next morning, at the instigation of the Queen Mother, Wang Cuihua ran directly to the yamen to beat the drum without washing her face or changing her clothes!
Wang Cuihua was covered in a mess and was crying so loudly that the neighbors soon gathered around her.
There were not many people who could work in the Tang County government office. Wang Cuihua beat the drum until her hands were numb, and the door of the government office could only be opened a crack.
Seeing that it was a poor woman, the bailiff did not scold her directly.
"Woman, do you know where this place is? Leave immediately!"
In the past, if someone beat the drum, they would say the same thing, and those who were timid would be scared away.
Wang Cuihua straightened her back and saw that there were many people watching. "My husband is Zhuo Youcai. He used to work in the government office."
She gave the name of Zhuo Youcai. Since they were in the same yamen, they would naturally recognize him.
Sure enough, the expression of the yamen runner with the cane changed: "It turns out that my sister-in-law is here. But why is my sister-in-law here to beat the drum? And there are so many people gathered here. If the master finds out, I'm afraid..."
Who could have thought that Zhuo Youcai passed away at such a young age? Alas, his widow is so pitiful.
Their master had disguised himself very well before, but after some recent events, the few of them who were left had seen clearly the true character of this master.
At this moment, the Tang County government office was in a state of chaos and despair. It was hard to find the right words to describe this chaotic scene.
According to their master, "Unless they come to return the silver, anyone else who comes to report the crime will be intercepted and refused."
What else could he do? He could only patiently persuade people to leave quickly.
However, after listening to what the other party said, Wang Cuihua did not have the slightest intention of leaving. Instead, she continued to pick up the drumstick and hit the drum hard, making a series of banging sounds!
"Give me back my husband's compensation. If you don't give me back my husband's compensation today, I will never leave!"
She beat the drum again and again, completely ignoring the earnest advice of the yamen runners beside her and not listening to a single word they said.
When the yamen runner saw how haggard Wang Cuihua looked, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for her and thought that maybe he could really help her apply for some compensation from the higher authorities.
So he sighed and said, "Hey, wait a moment, I'll go ask the master."
After saying that, he closed the door and limped towards where Master Tang was.
At this time, County Magistrate Tang was leisurely drinking tea, crossing his legs, and staring at the clouds in the sky in a daze.
