Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space

Chapter 1016: Chapter 1016: Isn’t It Right to Ask for Some Compensation?

Yao Hui’s second aunt usually knows how to scheme, let alone when her grandson was pushed into the Yuquan River and nearly flipped Lyu Juncheng’s home upside down.

Although the child was saved, the doctor said he needed to be hospitalized for observation.

Yao Hui said countless nice words, but her second aunt wasn’t giving in: "Yao Hui, don’t talk about forgiving him. If it weren’t for your sake, I’d have thrown him into the Yuquan River just to see.

He’s just a little kid, how could he be so ruthless? Doesn’t he know how deep the water in Yuquan River is?

If no one had taken the risk to save my Song Shiyun, our family would be broken. How can you shamelessly ask me to forgive him just because of our family ties?"

Yao Hui was helpless: "Second Aunt, we know that this time, Xiangyang was really wrong, but now that it’s happened, we have to solve it somehow."

Someone nearby echoed: "Auntie Song, Yao Hui is right, let’s see how we can solve this matter, let’s not argue, your Song Shiyun still needs someone to take care of him."

Seeing someone speaking up for her, Yao Hui quickly gave Lyu Juncheng a look standing nearby.

Lyu Juncheng felt utterly frustrated, but he had to muster up the courage: "Second Aunt, that kid Xiangyang is really naughty, as you saw earlier, I’ve beaten him and scolded him. When Shiyun gets better, I’ll bring him over to apologize."

Yao Hui’s second aunt got a bit angry hearing Lyu Juncheng’s words: "What do you mean, do you think just pretending to beat him a few times will settle this? He should apologize, but you can’t just eat words as food."

What else could Lyu Juncheng do: "Second Aunt, we’re at fault in this matter, tell us what you need, and we’ll try our best to meet it."

What he meant was, you can make demands, but if we can’t manage them, that’s another story.

Yao Hui’s second aunt didn’t catch the underlying meaning, ever since Yao Hui had a disagreement with Song Limin, the two families had grown distant, especially this time when it was Lyu Xiangyang who harmed her grandson, so naturally, she wouldn’t show mercy.

She already had a plan in mind: "Our Shiyun really suffered this time, you’ve heard the doctor said he needs to be hospitalized for observation, and can only be discharged when everything’s fine.

So your family should cover the hospitalization costs, isn’t that reasonable?"

Even if Lyu Juncheng was unwilling deep down, he had to agree: "It’s not unreasonable, it’s necessary."

Yao Hui’s second aunt heard Lyu Juncheng’s response: "You cover the medical expenses, and during this time, you also need to buy meals and nutritional supplements. Is there a problem with that?"

How could Lyu Juncheng dare say there’s a problem, just wanting to resolve this quickly: "No problem."

Then Yao Hui’s second aunt continued: "His parents definitely need to stay with him for care, so you have to cover the lost wages, right?"

Lyu Juncheng’s face looked quite ugly, but thinking that the hospital stay wouldn’t be long, he nodded: "Okay."

He thought it was finally over, but Yao Hui’s second aunt spoke again: "This time our Shiyun almost lost his life, how do you plan to compensate him?"

Yao Hui on the side was somewhat incredulous: "Second Aunt, we are proper relatives, we’ve already covered the medical and nutritional expenses, asking for compensation seems...."

She wanted to say it’s inappropriate, but before she could say it, her second aunt exploded: "There were quite a few people at the scene back then, my Shiyun almost lost his life, asking for some compensation isn’t unreasonable, right?"

By now, a crowd had gathered around.

Lyu Juncheng felt utterly embarrassed, barely calming down the flurry of gossip about his affair, speedy divorce and remarriage, and demotion due to work mistakes.

Just a few days of peace, and Lyu Xiangyang caused such a huge mess, it felt like fate was against him.

Meanwhile, Yao Hui was thinking: after finally paying off the family debt, now there’s this, life really seems unlivable.

Might as well have divorced when she was at odds with Lyu Juncheng earlier, it’s surely better than living like chickens and dogs. She couldn’t feel more regretful now.
