CHAPTER 150: CHAPTER 149: RESULT

After finalizing the shop inventory, Lin Wan and Zhang Shuhua followed the police car to the station. Since Zhang Shuhua was involved in the fight incident, he also had to go.

"Grandma Wang, you should head back first. We probably won’t be able to do business these couple of days. Take the food from the shop home. We’ll be back once our witness statements are recorded."

"Alright, I’ll tidy up the shop a bit and then head back."

"No need to tidy up the shop; it’s all evidence. Just take the food back."

The statement-taking was quick, and two hours later, Lin Wan and Zhang Shuhua returned.

"Shuhua, you should head home too. This matter won’t be resolved in a few days. It’s a good time for some rest."

"Okay, Aunt Liang is alone at home, and her legs aren’t convenient. You should hurry back too. This time, Tong Li and his wife can’t escape; so many eyes are watching."

"Yeah, we definitely won’t let them off easily."

After separating from Zhang Shuhua, Lin Wan went straight home.

Seeing so many groceries in the house, Lin Wan knew Grandma Wang had been by.

"Mom, have you eaten yet?"

"How can Mom eat? Grandma Wang told me Tong Li’s family caused trouble again and smashed our shop. Was your face hit by them?" Liang Hongmei couldn’t sit still or lie down all morning, anxiously sporting a cold sore.

"Mom, it’s nothing; these injuries will heal in two days. I did it on purpose, pretending to be badly beaten to earn sympathy. You didn’t know, I hit Tong Li’s wife quite hard, specifically pinching where it’s not visible. During the noon statement, she was just anxiously saying how badly I hurt her, but couldn’t say anything coherent. The station was full of men; she couldn’t shamelessly take off her clothes for examination, so she had to swallow the loss."

Liang Hongmei, hearing her daughter say this, finally let out a long-held breath and gave a helpless smile, glancing at Lin Wan, "You, as long as you didn’t suffer, but I heard from Grandma Wang, they were three people."

"Mom, there was Shuhua too. You know, Shuhua is quite strong, so naturally, we didn’t lose out. The other person was focusing on wrecking our stuff, had no time to fight."

"Everything’s destroyed, what do we do?" Liang Hongmei’s previously eased heart was now anxious again.

"They destroyed our stuff, so they’ll definitely compensate."

"Sigh... Tong Li isn’t a good person."

"Even if he’s not good, they have to compensate. This can’t just end like that."

In the kitchen, Lin Wan made two pots of stew with the day’s shop ingredients. After the mother and daughter finished eating, they lay on the bed to rest for a while. When they woke up, it was already dark.

"Mom, are you feeling any better?"

"One foot can’t move, it’s not that serious. Take the chamber pot out, I can manage to use a stick to get to the bathroom myself."

These days, the liquor shop is quite busy. In a few more days, it’s August 15th, busy with deliveries. Brother hasn’t come home for days and doesn’t know about these matters. Lin Wan didn’t intend to tell. Liang Hongmei rested for three or four days, then was able to get to the ground, and went directly to the shop once her foot healed.

The shop was still in the same messy state as that day, not tidied up. It’s been days, and there should be a result soon. Lin Wan and Mom originally planned to tidy up the shop, but just then, police station personnel arrived and summoned the involved parties to the station.

Tong Li couldn’t move due to just having surgery, so in the end, they didn’t make him go to the station but instead went to Tong Li’s hospital room.

The affair had roughly a resolution. The troublesome Tong Li and his wife bore 80% of the responsibility.

Of course, the incident at Lin Wan’s shop, his wife, and Mom were fully responsible.

Accounting for the damaged goods, they had to compensate a total of two hundred yuan, plus Lin Wan’s injuries and the shop’s lost time, amounting to a hundred.

The overturned food cart costs from that afternoon require each family to compensate the vendor thirty yuan.
