Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time! - Chapter 99

Chapter 99 A Huge Sum of Money

“Yun Zhu ate a total of half a piece of chocolate, a carton of milk, a piece of beef jerky, and a few sandwich biscuits from Yun Shan’s house.”

In order to avoid trouble, Yun Yang directly told the village chief about what Yun Zhu ate.

“Yun Zhu, do you admit to what Yun Yang

said?”

“What’s there to deny? We still have evidence!”

Yun Yang was still unrelenting.

“I admit that what Yun Yang said is true.”Yun Zhu was already feeling guilty, so he could only admit that he had secretly eaten a lot.

When Ma Yan heard these things, she was silently having a mental breakdown. How much money would she have to pay for these things?

“Yun Xi, some of these things aren’t accessible to the village chief. Why don’t you give us a price?”

The village chief looked at Yun Xi.

“Alright then, let’s calculate according to the market price. We will look at the chocolate as a whole piece. This is because we won’t eat what Yun Zhu has eaten. However, to be fair to you, I will give you the remaining half of the chocolate. This is the best I can do.”

Yun Xi said calmly.

“The Chocolate Yun Zhu ate was a big piece. According to the market price, it was eight Yuan per piece. The milk has a premium quality, so it is one and a half yuan for one carton. There were two beef jerky, and it’s impossible to be precise about the size of each piece. I will calculate it according to the average value of one yuan per piece, so two beef jerky will add up to two yuan. Also, Yun Zhu opened the new box of sandwich biscuits and ate three pieces. There are ten biscuits in this box, and this box costs three yuan. A single biscuit will be three cents, and three of them add up to nine cents in total.”

“Village chief, please calculate how much these things add up to.”

After Yun Xi said that, she immediately asked the village chief to calculate the sum. She could actually calculate this bit of money in her heart. It was just that when these words came from the village chief himself, it would have a greater deterrent effect on Yun Lin’s family.

“Alright, I’ll calculate it.” In order to be absolutely accurate, the village chief even picked up the abacus on the office desk.

The abacus made a clear and crisp sound as the village chief calculated. Every sound was like a tight grip on Ma Yan’s heart. Ma Yan could feel her heart bleeding.

“It’s a total of twelve yuan and forty cents.”

What?! Twelve yuan and forty cents?

Adding the 60 cents from the Youtiao just now, it was a total of thirteen yuan. That was a month’s worth of food expenses for Ma Yan and her family.

“I don’t believe it. Although these things are expensive, we cannot only be listening to Yun Xi. I can only compensate them with five yuan at most. I definitely won’t compensate them any more than that.”

Ma Yan immediately refused. She acted as though she would rather die than pay up.

If it were not for the fact that she was in the wrong, Ma Yan would not even mention the compensation of five yuan. In actual fact, she even wanted the leftover snacks that were uneaten by Yun Zhu.

The village chief felt very uncomfortable when he saw Ma Yan’s expression.

“I know that your family is poor, but you don’t have to act like this. If Yun Shan’s family really wants to pursue this matter, I believe that your family will definitely suffer even more than you are now.”

The village chief remembered that Yun Shan’s family still had the support of the Zhou family in the city, so he warned Ma Yan.

“I can’t live like this anymore. You are forcing this on our family! Yun Xi, you have such a vicious heart. You are living such a good life and you refuse to give your relatives a hand. Worse still, you even want to force us into a dead end.”

“You have such a vicious heart when you are just a young girl. Karma will find you. No man will be willing to marry you in the future.”

Ma Yan continued chattering as if scolding Yun Xi would make herself feel better.

Ma Yan thought that the 18-year-old girl in front of her might be in fear of her words. After all, in this era, reputation and marriage were the most important things in a woman’s life. Yun Xi might even give up this huge sum of compensation out of concern for her own reputation.

But Ma Yan was wrong. Yun Xi would never live under the feet of people again.
