The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 277: Oh, This Damned Tacit Understanding

Yes, how was the salary calculated?

Lu Sanzhu immediately became excited. Shu Yu glanced at him, and he quickly restrained his expression and became more reserved.

The three young masters looked at each other, and the person standing in front stretched out a finger. Shu Yu frowned, “One tael of silver?”

Of course not, it was 100 coins.

The three young masters could not help but glare. It wasn’t that they were stingy. After all, they were all spendthrifts. The key was that they were still feeling aggrieved. In all honesty, they were not willing to pay a single cent, let alone a hundred coins.

Besides, looking at how petty Lu Shanzhu and Shu Yu were, they should be quite delighted to be given a hundred coins.

The young masters decided they would just treat the money as an amount to get rid of a few beggars.

They were about to shake their heads when Shu Yu said, “Only one tael of silver? Do you think we’re beggars?”

The three of them were stunned. Lu Sanzhu, who was already so satisfied that he almost jumped in excitement, looked at Shu Yu in astonishment.

Even Tang Wenqian and the Lanhua were looking at her. Wasn’t one tael of silver already a lot?

Shu Yu frowned and started calculating, “It’s too stingy that you guys are only offering to pay one tael of silver. My third uncle has been soaking in the water for so long that his hands and feet are wrinkled. He might even catch a cold.” As she spoke, Shu Yu cast a sidelong glance at Lu Sanzhu.

The latter instantly had an epiphany and turned around to sneeze twice.

Oh, this damned tacit understanding.

Shu Yu pointed at him, “Listen, listen to him. He’s already caught a cold. He would have to see a doctor and take some medicine after getting back. Then, he would have to stay in bed for at least two days. You must compensate for the medical fees, medicine fees, and lost time. Moreover, my third uncle only said that he would show off his swimming skills. He should’ve been able to get out of the water after a lap. Who knew that you guys would not be satisfied? You even made a scene and called the people in the area over. Look, even our fellow villagers have come to watch the show. This won’t do. My third uncle still has some dignity. What if the villagers go back and tell everyone else about all this?

What if everyone laughs at him?”

Fellow villager Tang Wenqian stood there expressionlessly.

Shu Yu sighed, “You guys were the ones who caused this. My third uncle’s heart has been hurt. Therefore, there should be some compensation for his psychological distress too, right? Also, my third uncle only promised to show off his abilities. He didn’t say that he would allow you to hit him with bamboo poles, right? He had been hit on the head a few times just now. God knows if there’s anything wrong with his brain now. What if he suddenly goes crazy and hits his wife and children? This is all your fault.”

Everyone was speechless.

So wages could be calculated like this?

Even Hu Li coughed lightly and silently looked in the direction of Lord Xiang.

He had misunderstood the Lord. The Lord was right, Lady Lu… She wasn’t an ordinary little girl. She wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.

The three young masters were also stunned. They looked at Shu Yu in shock. All of this was on them?

“Then tell me, how much do you want?”

“If you don’t give us ten taels, we’ll be making a loss,” Shu Yu said generously.

“Ten taels? Why don’t you rob others?” Shu Yu smiled. Wasn’t she robbing them now?

The three of them refused.

‘ But you also kicked us… pushed us into the water, and there are seven of us.

We’re the ones who suffered a loss, right?”

Shu Yu was silent and the three young masters thought that she could no longer justify her words.

However, she quickly raised her head and nodded in agreement.

“You’re right. This matter is a little complicated, so I suggest that we go to the government and let the Lord decide who is more responsible..”
