Chapter 162

~5 min read 971 words

Xu Damao's eyes lit up; Jia Zhangshi was going to be unlucky.

He moved the watermelons out nimbly and started selling them. One yuan a day plus the reward of a big watermelon—he couldn't bear to give that up!

Soon.

More and more people came to buy watermelons.

Xu Damao had no time to talk to Wan Ping'an.

Middle courtyard.

After everyone dispersed.

Shazhu's brow was knitted into a knot.

"Shazhu, what are you worrying about?"

The Deaf Old Lady asked with a smile.

"Old Lady, I've caused trouble."

"Compensating Jia Zhangshi one hundred yuan—that's not a small amount; it's one hundred yuan."

"When my dad comes back, he'll definitely break my legs!"

Shazhu was full of worry.

"You're just worried about this?"

"Don't worry, with me here, I guarantee you won't get beaten."

"When your dad He Daqing comes back, come find me, and I'll help you persuade your dad!"

The Deaf Old Lady patted her chest to guarantee.

"Will my dad listen to you?"

Shazhu was seriously skeptical.

He Daqing had always warned him to stay away from the Deaf Old Lady and Yi Zhonghai.

Wouldn't the Deaf Old Lady going to persuade He Daqing be like adding fuel to the fire?

"He must listen!"

"I'm so old, I'm old enough to be his elder; he must give me face!"

The Deaf Old Lady was full of confidence.

Shazhu's hanging heart dropped a little!

Less than an hour later.

Wan Ping'an saw the three members of the Jia family return.

They didn't go home or greet the courtyard, but came directly to the place where Wan Ping'an was selling watermelons.

Jia Dongxu was leaning on a crutch.

He didn't dare to let his right leg touch the ground at all.

"Is the Jia family going to make trouble?"

Wan Ping'an looked coldly at the three members of the Jia family.

He had guessed it long ago; with Jia Zhangshi's personality, if she didn't get the money, she would definitely come back to make trouble. He wasn't surprised at all by their arrival.

The three members of the Jia family arrived in the backyard and saw Wan Ping'an, but didn't dare to go over immediately.

Jia Zhangshi looked at Jia Gensheng, but Jia Gensheng didn't move.

She looked at Jia Dongxu again, but Jia Dongxu lowered his head.

"Useless!"

"There are two grown men in the house, and I, a woman, have to come forward; are you still men?"

Jia Zhangshi was extremely annoyed.

Gritting her teeth, she braced herself and walked in front of Wan Ping'an.

"Wan Ping'an, Dongxu's lower leg is broken. The doctor said the treatment fee, plus the nutrition fee, all adds up to over one hundred yuan!"

"This money..."

Jia Zhangshi calculated.

Wan Ping'an was the richest man in the courtyard; how much should she extort from him?

Even if she asked for one thousand yuan, Wan Ping'an would definitely be able to come up with it.

"Shut up!"

"Jia Dongxu's injury has nothing to do with me; I won't give him a single cent, get lost!"

Wan Ping'an interrupted Jia Zhangshi.

Wan Ping'an didn't believe a word of the medical and nutrition fees Jia Zhangshi mentioned that added up to over one hundred.

Even if it was a fracture.

The total cost for surgery and setting the bone wouldn't exceed thirty yuan.

Jia Zhangshi was deliberately exaggerating the numbers for one purpose: to get money, lots and lots of money!

Wan Ping'an was no sucker, nor was he easy to bully; how could he possibly give her money?

Thump!

Jia Zhangshi sat down, and then lay down.

"Heaven, open your eyes!"

"The little beast Wan Ping'an has a heart too black; he broke my son's leg, and he won't pay a cent. May a bolt of lightning strike him dead!"

"Everyone, look, Wan Ping'an is a black-hearted profiteer."

"..."

Jia Zhangshi fell to the ground and started to throw a tantrum.

She knew she couldn't beat Wan Ping'an, so she stopped fighting and started making a scene!

If she could stop Wan Ping'an from selling watermelons and affect his ability to make money, maybe he would give in!

The Deaf Old Lady heard the noise and came out of her house. Seeing Jia Zhangshi making a scene, she laughed immediately; this little beast Wan Ping'an deserved it!

Yi Zhonghai also heard the commotion.

He came to the backyard and smiled until his eyes narrowed into slits.

"Old Lady, guess how much money Jia Zhangshi can get from Wan Ping'an's hands?"

Yi Zhonghai came to the Deaf Old Lady's side.

"How much do you guess she can get?"

The Deaf Old Lady asked back.

"I guess she can get at least seventy or eighty."

"Wan Ping'an is not a good person; he won't compromise, but with Jia Zhangshi making such a scene, he won't be able to continue selling watermelons to make money."

"I estimate he will spend money to resolve the disaster."

Yi Zhonghai guessed.

"You're wrong; I guess Jia Zhangshi won't be able to take away a single cent."

"This kid Wan Ping'an is ruthless at heart; he will never compromise. If he compromises this time, what will happen if others do the same in the future?"

The Deaf Old Lady shook her head.

"Then what will he do?"

Yi Zhonghai thought the Deaf Old Lady made sense.

How could Wan Ping'an drive Jia Zhangshi away?

"I don't know either!"

The Deaf Old Lady shook her head.

The two stopped talking and watched the show!

"Damao, go get a knife!"

Wan Ping'an ordered.

Jia Zhangshi's crying and howling stopped abruptly.

She just wanted to extort some money; there was no need to bring out a knife, right?

The people around were also stunned.

"Ping'an..."

Xu Damao didn't dare to go get the knife.
