As Ms. Chen spoke,
The few Fang clansmen, who had been aggressively pressuring them just moments before, now looked embarrassed.
Indeed, Fang Mu was a simple and honest man.
Many among the Fang clansmen had received favors from him.
The families of Fang Ming and Fang Zhi, for instance, owed him a life-saving debt—a favor of the highest order.
However, sometimes a small kindness earns gratitude, while a large one breeds resentment.
Far from being grateful to Fang Mu's family, these two men were now joining the other Fang clansmen to pressure them.
This was a perfect example of repaying kindness with hatred.
But they were nearly shameless. Even after Ms. Chen exposed them, their shame was fleeting.
"Auntie, you can't put it like that. We all remember your kindness. But we really can't get by anymore. Please, show us some compassion."
