NovelEnglishChapter 435
Liu Chunfang burst into tears, “Why should we pay for it? Our money isn’t blown to our homes by the wind.”
Lin Lan said coldly, “This harmonica costs 48 cents, but to go back and forth to the county, you have to ride a bicycle and it takes quite some time. Hence, you have to pay me at least 2 Yuan. If you give me anything less than that, I won’t tolerate it and I will not let this matter end.”
2 Yuan was enough for Liu Chunfang to have a heartache. She hit her own child Langtou since she was in emotional pain, but that way, Langtou would remember this as well.
Liu Chunfang sat on the ground crying, “You’re bullying people, bullying people…”

“You have a bicycle, you can buy it again yourself,” Someone muttered.
Lin Lan snorted, “If you accidentally damaged someone else’s property, you should compensate them; but if you intentionally damaged other’s property, you should compensate it by twice the value. This is known as punishment. Without bearing the consequences, you won’t remember the incident. And it’s by remembering the incident and the pain that comes with it that no one becomes a repeated offender!”
Even if Han Qingsong had time to go to the county, why should he pay for Langtou’s mistake?
Not paying up was fine too since Lin Lan would just force them to do it in an official matter.
In the end, the Brigade Leader had no choice but to invite Han Yongfang to settle this.
Han Yongfang had already heard what the others had to say about this, “Deliberately damaging other people’s items results in reimbursing for the item up to a satisfactory level. Dawang’s mother didn’t ask for more, so 2 Yuan is a reasonable price to pay.”
.
If the Secretary Head said that it was reasonable, that’s what it was. The Brigade Leader then made Liu Chunfang pay up.
If she wasn’t willing to pay, her work points would be deducted as compensation in the brigade. This was a means for brigade cadres to settle their conflicts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLiu Chunfang had no choice but to pay Lin Lan the amount under a lot of pressure.
Tietou put the dime in his trouser pocket and never took it out. Lin Lan didn’t bother him for it either, so he thought Lin Lan was very reasonable.
His mother hadn’t seen him take the dime, so he guessed that she would kill him if she ever found out.
Liu Chunfang couldn’t hold back her anger as she dragged her son Tietou, “Let’s go, we’re going to the commune to file a complaint. We must expose the face of this shrew to let Director Han, the police and the entire world know about it.”
She didn’t say anything else and stormed off with her son, Tietou.
On the other hand, Han Qingsong was handing over a batch of materials before he wrote a letter to his battle comrades, asking them for a favour to buy some Chinese medicine and sending them over.
At this time, Sun Zhuowen led Liu Chunfang and Tietou in, “Director Han, your family is looking for you.”
As soon as they entered the room, Liu Chunfang began to cry as she trembled, “Brother Qingsong~~”
Han Qingsong frowned and said coldly, “Who are you? Do not address me like you know me!”
