Chapter 139 Finally Losing Money
"Hehe, hello Teacher Mingyue, what are you doing here?"

Mingyue did not answer Su Nuannuan's question, but looked at Huang Ajiao and said.

"They are my students. Can you tell me what happened?"

Although Mingyue was just a teacher, she had a very imposing presence. Even Huang Ajiao didn't dare to be evasive and honestly recounted the whole story.

Actually, while Yuan Tou and the others were in the restroom, A Qiu assumed they had finished eating and cleaned up their food. Unexpectedly, Yuan Tou returned. He had been drinking and was in a bad mood, so he broke A Qiu's head. Su Nuannuan and the others went to seek justice for A Qiu.

After understanding the cause of the matter, Mingyue looked at Yuan Toudao.

"So, you hit someone and you don't want to pay compensation?"

Yuan Tou dared not meet Ming Yue's gaze and said in a muffled voice.

"They went too far. Who would pay four hundred yuan in compensation all at once?"

Yuan Tou is now mostly sober and his rationality is returning. He knows he's in the wrong. However, he's definitely not willing to pay such a large sum of money all at once.

When Mingyue heard that she had to pay 400 yuan in compensation, she was stunned for a moment and looked at Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan gave Mingyue an embarrassed smile.

Chu Mingzhou was also somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected Su Nuannuan, who looked so soft and petite, to be so ruthless in killing. Moreover, he had just seen Su Nuannuan preparing to smash someone with a vase when Yuan Tou was about to attack. However, he acted quickly enough to prevent another bloodshed.

Su Nuannuan knew she was asking for too much, but she also wanted A Qiu to receive more compensation. Besides, if she didn't ask for much, Yuan Tou would definitely give even less. She didn't know if it would even be enough to cover the medical expenses.

Mingyue didn't say anything, but looked at Yuan Tou.

“400 yuan is indeed too much. Just compensate me with 250 yuan.”

Yuan frowned, feeling there was still too much to say, and was about to continue arguing.

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan quickly said.

“We don’t know about A-Qiu’s condition yet. She can’t speak to begin with, and there are two other children at home who can’t speak either. If you accidentally hurt her head, even if you take out all the money in your house, it won’t be enough. Teacher Mingyue asking you to pay 250 yuan is already considering your needs.”

250 yuan is a bit little, but A Qiu will definitely have some left after her treatment. She initially asked for 400 yuan because she wanted Yuan Tou's compensation to be no less than 200 yuan.

As for what Su Nuannuan said, it was all just to bluff Yuan Tou. When she was stopping A Qiu's bleeding, she checked A Qiu's head. Although the skin was scratched, the bone was not damaged, and there was no major problem with the brain.

Seeing that Su Nuannuan was speaking with conviction, Mingyue did not interrupt her.

Upon hearing about A Qiu's family situation, Zhou Menglu and Pang Pangpang were instantly filled with sympathy.

Zhou Menglu spoke first to Su Nuannuan.

"I think Mr. Huang and those two will also lose money."

Pang Pang nodded.

Zhao Qian and Sun Wei, who were called out, quickly spoke up.

"Comrade, you can't expect us to pay you back just because you feel sorry for that little girl."

"Yes, we didn't do anything."

Unlike the other two, Gillian Chung was quite direct in her statement.

"Don't worry. A Qiu is someone I hired. If something happened to her while she was here, I definitely wouldn't abandon her. I'm willing to give A Qiu one hundred yuan as medical expenses."

It was called medical expenses, but it was actually compensation given to A Qiu.

Upon hearing Huang Ajiao's words, Mingyue looked at Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan nodded to her.

At this moment, Yuan Tou was completely stunned by Su Nuannuan's words. Although Su Nuannuan's words were somewhat exaggerated, as the person involved, he was directly intimidated.

Seeing that Huang Ajiao was willing to pay 100 yuan in compensation, Yuan Tou immediately realized that A Qiu's injuries must be quite serious. Furthermore, Su Nuannuan mentioned that the other family had two mute children. What if A Qiu couldn't be cured, and this family sued him later?
Thinking of this, Yuan Tou quickly took out his money from his pocket, put all the money on the table.

Seeing this, Su Nuannuan and the others knew that Yuan Tou had compromised, and they breathed a sigh of relief. If Yuan Tou had insisted on not paying compensation, there wouldn't have been anything they could do. Now that he was willing to pay, the matter was mostly resolved.

Yuan Tou took out all the money from his pocket, counted it, and found that he only had 186 yuan. He was still quite a bit short of 250 yuan.

"Not enough, not enough money!"

Yuan was somewhat flustered. He felt uneasy until he handed the money over to Su Nuannuan.

Seeing this, Zhao Qian and Sun Wei sighed.

"Hey bro, want to lend us some?"

Yuan nodded.

Then, Zhao Qian and Sun Wei took out all the money from their pockets, and the three of them pooled their money together and finally managed to raise 250 yuan.

Looking at the wad of money of varying sizes in her hand, Su Nuannuan accepted it.

Seeing that Su Nuannuan had accepted the money, Yuan Tou cautiously asked the others.

"Can we go?"

After receiving the money, Su Nuannuan felt much better and nodded.

"Okay, you can go now."

After Yuan Tou and the other two left, Zhou Menglu frowned and said.

"Nuan Nuan, what if A Qiu's head is really damaged? This money won't be enough."

After Zhou Menglu finished speaking, Chu Mingzhou and the others also looked at Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan had been in control of everything that had just happened, and although they had their doubts, they refrained from interfering because Su Nuannuan was A Qiu's friend.

Now that Zhou Menglu has voiced her doubts, the others are also very curious.

Su Nuannuan smiled at everyone and said.

"Don't worry, I've already checked A-Qiu's wound. It's just a superficial injury; at most, it'll only require a few stitches."

Upon hearing about stitches, both Zhou Menglu and Pang Pangpang showed expressions of horror. In those days, not as enlightened as later generations, any medical treatment involving stitches was a serious matter.

On the contrary, Mingyue and Chu Mingzhou had indifferent expressions and were very accepting of Su Nuannuan's words.

At this moment, Huang Ajiao also came over and handed 100 yuan to Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan did not accept it, but said to Huang Ajiao.

“Let’s go to the hospital together. You can give the money to A Qiu directly.”

Considering that A Qiu's compensation was substantial, Su Nuannuan didn't take the money with her; instead, she went to the hospital with Huang Ajiao.

Huang Ajiao nodded; after all, Aqiu was her employee. There were many others in the shop like Aqiu, and Huang Ajiao didn't want to discourage her employees, so she decided to take her to the hospital for a checkup.

Actually, Huang Ajiao didn't need to pay so much. However, Aqiu's matter had become too big a fuss, and if not handled properly, it would involve the police. Huang Ajiao didn't want to escalate the situation, so she had no choice but to settle it with money.

Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Su Nuannuan looked at Mingyue, who had maintained a serious expression throughout, and smiled sweetly.

"Mingyue, thank you so much for today. I'm so glad you showed up in time."

Mingyue said irritably.

"I only said a few words, but you're still the best."

Su Nuannuan laughed twice, feeling embarrassed.

Actually, after learning about A Qiu's family situation, Mingyue understood why Su Nuannuan wanted Yuan Tou to pay so much money. Mingyue didn't blame Su Nuannuan either.
