"If you ask me, the first is to report to the official, and the second is to compensate!" Shen Ping said lightly.

"What! Reporting to the official is absolutely forbidden!" After hearing this, He Yao frowned and was the first to jump out to object.

"I can't do it, I can't do it... I will still have to take the scholar examination in the future, but I can't ruin his reputation." Mrs. Liu was completely panicked now.

He Guang, who has been a scholar all his life, is still having such a dream. He Guang can't help but shake his head secretly. In his mother's eyes, he only has the second child.

"It's okay not to report it to the official, then let's compensate!"

Now Liu and He Yao were dumbfounded again. The family was so poor that there was no money to compensate them.

"Aunt Dachun, my grandma's family really doesn't have any money. See if there is any other way!" He Ming said in embarrassment.

Shen Ping pondered for a while and then said: "In this way, we won't be held accountable for the food we ate, but He Yao has to go to my house to help build a house and use his labor money to pay off the debt. In addition, I will also provide him with meals, how about it?" "

When He Yao heard this, his whole face wrinkled up. He had been studying all his life. What could he do if he had no power to restrain a chicken? He couldn't help but look at Ms. Liu for help.

"no!"

Mrs. Liu shook her head repeatedly: "Our second child is going to be a scholar, so how can he do such a heavy job? How about using He Jing Heming's wages as compensation?"

He Guang's face turned even more ugly. This mother only loved her little son, and she could say such things.

"How about we report to the official?" He Guang said coldly.

"Boss, you are so cruel! You do this to your brother and your mother." Mrs. Liu said through gritted teeth.

He Guangqi was trembling all over and clenched his back teeth tightly. He had endured some words for a long time, but now, he couldn't bear it anymore.

"move slowly!"

He Guang smiled coldly: "Mom, who is this vicious person? This He Yao is your son, but this He Ming He Yao is also your grandson.

Before the family was separated, you only did everything for your second son. If you had any good food, you would cling to him. In order to support his education, you sold a few acres of the land under our eldest family's name.

You're afraid that we will spend your money and divide us out early, which will result in a loss.

"The village chief is right. Since He Yao doesn't want to, let's report it to the official!"

"Mom, why don't you report it to the official? They don't dare to shut you down at your age, and what you do has nothing to do with me," He Yao said.

Unexpectedly, He Yao could say such words, Mrs. Liu couldn't believe her ears. I only thought about him, but I didn't expect him to treat me like this. Liu instantly seemed to have aged several years.

"You beast, my mother will do anything for you, but you are not willing to work for her. You would rather let your mother go to jail." He Guang couldn't bear it anymore and slapped He Yao on the face.

"This matter is not negotiable. You have to go to Da Chun Niang's place to work for two days to offset this debt. If you don't go, I'll beat you up." He Guang had a dark face and raised his fist.

"Mom, look at big brother, he beat me..." He Yao covered his face and said to Mrs. Liu.

Madam Liu looked a little dazed, looking at Yao'er, whom she usually felt pain in her heart, who usually stretched out her hands for clothes and opened her mouth for food.

She gave him all the good things, but no matter what happened to him, he only cared about himself and didn't care about his own life or death. Mrs. Liu couldn't help but feel a little chilled as she wished she could cut off the relationship with him.

On the contrary, it was the eldest child, who was 8 years older than the second child. Ever since the second child was born, he had always ignored the eldest child.

The year the eldest son got married, he sent his second son to study. Mrs. Liu hoped that her second son would gain fame. From then on, all the money she earned was spent on her second son. For this reason, the second daughter-in-law also has a lot of complaints.

And after he waited for his second son to pass the exam, he distributed it to his boss and sold a few acres of his land so that his second son could take the exam to become a scholar.

Unexpectedly, this second-tier student failed to live up to expectations. He took the exam for more than ten years and is still daydreaming about it.

The boss had never said anything before. If he hadn't really pushed him, he probably wouldn't have said this. Ms. Liu lowered her eyebrows and couldn't help but ask herself, did she really do something wrong?

"Mom..." He Yao shouted anxiously, looking at Mrs. Liu who looked stunned.

Normally, if this eldest brother had any conflicts with him, his mother would be the first to spare him. Unexpectedly, his mother was indifferent now, which made He Yao feel flustered.

"Well done to the village chief! He Yao should be beaten..." the villagers who had done something good shouted again.

Seeing He Yao acting like a mama's boy, Shen Ping couldn't help but want to beat him up. After taking a few deep breaths, I suppressed the urge.

"Your brother is right. You have to work for two days to pay off your mother's debt. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. Besides, I'm only thinking about you. Reporting to the official will do you no good.

Don't you still want to take the scholar exam? If it is rumored that the scholar's mother has been in prison, won't it affect your reputation? " Shen Ping said with a smile.

"That's it. If I don't see you tomorrow and go over to help, don't blame me for being rude!" After saying that, Shen Ping asked her brothers to carry the rice noodles on their backs.

The next step was to go to Liao's house. When they went to Liao's house, they woke up Gao and Gu Dong. They were shocked to see that the village chief came with his mother-in-law.

Listening to Shen Ping's explanation of her purpose, Gao and Gu Dong anxiously took the initiative to look for her.

I quickly found the marked rice noodles in the cloth bag, weighing forty or fifty kilograms.

Looking at the things he found, Mr. Liao sternly cursed: "You two bastards, you turned your elbows outward.

"This is not our thing in the first place, mother, how could you do such a thing?" Gu Dong frowned and said sadly.

"Aunt Dachun, we are really sorry for you. Otherwise, we and my wife will not take any of their wages, and we will treat it as compensation.

In addition, we will find a way to repay the one tael of silver we owe you when the time comes. "Ms. Gao looked at Shen Ping and said with a look of fear.

After hearing what Mrs. Gao said, Mrs. Liao angrily cursed: "You loser, you have no right to speak. Shut up!"

Shen Ping only wanted He Yao to work alone to pay off the debt, but she didn't expect that she, a stupid daughter-in-law, would actually say that she would use her husband and wife's wages to pay off the debt, and pay back one tael of silver in addition. This made her mad.

Shen Ping couldn't help but nodded secretly. She didn't expect that this couple were really honest people, and they were really different from Mr. Liao.

Everyone looked at Shen Ping again.

"Cough cough..."

Shen Ping cleared her throat, glanced at Mrs. Gao, then at Gu Dong, and said lightly: "Let's do this. Gu Dong's wages will be deducted to offset your mother's debt, and I won't pursue it anymore. Your wife's wages will be withheld." It remains the same as before.”

Gao and Gu Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Shen Ping profusely.

Mr. Liao is so remorseful! Gudong originally had 20 cents a day, but after working for more than ten days, he could buy several kilograms of food.

But now that something like this has happened, he has lost his money and food, and if word spreads about it, he will lose his life. Now I really shot myself in the foot.

After such a fuss, it was almost midnight, and everyone went back to their houses after watching the fun.
