In the end, without Wang Hailan's knowledge, Father Wang agreed to compensate the Ning Family with three thousand yuan as an apology.
The Ning Family had a meal at the Wang Family's house and then criticized the Wang couple, agreeing to come back to collect the money three days later.
Before leaving, Old Lady Ning said to the Wang couple, "Three days from now, we'll come to collect the money. Don't try any tricks, or I'll make sure Wang Hailan and the Wang Family's reputation are ruined on the streets."
After Old Lady Ning left with her two sons, Mother Wang returned to the room and cried angrily.
Father Wang took a cigarette packet from the cabinet, pulled out one and lit it, sitting there puffing away, feeling immensely frustrated.
Three thousand yuan wasn't a small amount. This was their entire life's savings, and now it had to be given away for nothing. But what else could they do? They couldn't let the Ning Family expose this matter and ruin the Wang Family's reputation.
