Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 56
Compensation ( 2 )
After a while, Han Yuheng said, “Uncle Lu, Miss Xiao will pay for the eggs and move out.”
“Why should I leave?! I have already said that I will not leave!” Xiao Yiqing shouted angrily.
“Xiao Yiqing!” Han Yuheng suddenly roared.
Startled by his loud voice, she immediately fell silent.
Han Yuheng took a deep breath, suppressed the anger and irritability in his heart, and said, “If you don’t want to go to jail, you better shut up and do as I say.”
Xiao Yiqing gritted her teeth and clenched her fists while her heart was burning with anger. She stared at everyone with red eyes full of grievance, as if she was being bullied by the whole world.
Lu Jueyu and Pan Meijia looked at her calmly, each with their own thoughts. Han Yuheng turned to Father Lu and said, “Uncle Lu, the price of eggs in the state-run supply store is 8 cents each. Since she didn’t use the coupon to buy the eggs, then Xiao Yiqing will give you 10 cents each. What do you think of this price?”
“We will follow Team Leader Han’s suggestion.” Father Lu nodded after thinking for a while.
Seeing that they had reached an agreement, Wang Muxiao hurried into the chicken coop. The chicken coop was very small, and as soon as she entered, she pushed Xiao Yiqing out. As a person who used to work in the field, Wang Muxiao’s strength cannot be underestimated despite her thin body. With just one push, she almost pushed Xiao Yiqing to the ground.
Inside the chicken coop, Wang Muxiao hurriedly inspected each egg carefully, choosing the cracked eggs, and picking up the broken eggs. When she came out of the coop, she carried a small basket with eight eggs in it. Four broken eggs with nothing remained beside the shells, and four others had several cracks.
She walked up to Father Lu and said, “Father, there are eight eggs in total. Four were smashed and four were cracked.”
Father Lu nodded, handed the basket to Han Yuheng to show the eggs, and said, “Team Leader Han, please check.”
Han Yuheng looked at the egg, nodded, then looked at Xiao Yiqing and said, “Miss Xiao, you need to pay the Lu family 80 cents.”
Without waiting for Xiao Yiqing to respond, Wang Muxiao said, “Team leader, she still needs to compensate our chicken coop and the frightened old hens. You see, if the old hen is frightened, it will not be able to lay eggs for a few days. My family’s old hen is very good. It can lay three to five eggs everyday!”
“Now, they are frightened badly and won’t lay eggs for at least three days. Will she not compensate us? There is still a chicken coop, see the door. She also broke it and we will need money to repair it!” Wang Muxiao added distressingly.
Xiao Yiqing’s expression darkened upon hearing her words. It seems that Wang Muxiao is determined to drill a big hole in her pocket tonight. But she was in the wrong, so her argument is weak.
Han Yuheng knew that what Wang Muxiao said was not nonsense. But can the old hens of the Lu family really lay three or five eggs a day? It seems too exaggerated.
As if knowing that he didn’t believe what she said, Wang Muxiao said again, “If you don’t believe what I say, I’ll show you.”
After leaving this sentence, she went into the chicken coop again, picked up all the eggs, and then came out. After coming out, Wang Muxiao showed the basket in her hand to Han Yuheng, and said at the same time, “Look, team leader. There are 14 eggs in total. Adding the 8 eggs that were broken, there are 22 eggs in total. We only have five old hens. So, an old hen really can lay three or five eggs.”
Han Yuheng was surprised when he saw the number of eggs. It is rare for an old hen to lay so many eggs a day. If it can lay one or two eggs a day, it’s already considered pretty good.
With conclusive evidence, he looked at Xiao Yiqing and said, “It is true that the old hens will not lay eggs for at least three days after being frightened. Let’s count it as five old hens laying 20 eggs a day. In this way, after three days, That will be 60 eggs. As for the door, you will only have to pay fifty cents as a repair fee.”
Wang Muxiao was very satisfied with the money she earned from Xiao Yiqing, and was busy counting with her fingers. While everyone was still counting, Lu Jueyu said, “The broken egg costs 80 cents, the repair fee is 50 cents, and the compensation is 6 yuan. A total of 7 yuan and 30 cents. Miss Xiao, please pay before leaving.”
When Xiao Yiqing heard that it cost more than seven yuan, she almost spit out three liters of blood. Under Han Yuheng’s threatening gaze, she could only take out her pouch to pay.
Wang Muxiao grabbed the money from her hand, counted it three times before saying, “The total is correct. There is not a cent more or less.”
Afterwards, under Wang Muxiao’s strict supervision, Xiao Yiqing packed her clothes and left with Han Yuheng with a darkened face. Before leaving, she turned her head to look at Lu Jueyu, and said coldly, “You are just a mob character who is destined to die. Just wait, I will make you regret what you did today!”
Lu Jueyu was stunned when she heard her words. As it turned out, her guess was correct! The current female lead was a transmigrator. The current heroine is arrogant, ambitious, and ignorant. While the original character setting of the heroine is smart, generous, kind, and warm-hearted. It was different from the plot she read in her previous life. Will these changes bring another butterfly effect to the plot?
