Touch porcelain
Feng Xinyao is eating melon seeds; please tell me what's going on.
"By the way, don't the hotel have two banquet halls today, both of which are hosting weddings? The person who was looking for trouble had nothing to do with your aunt's family but was going to the family next door."
"The man in the family next door is in his fifties, and he still has a young girl as his wife. When his ex-wife found out, she was furious, so she asked someone to come to her house to cause trouble."
"Originally, they booked the banquet hall on the left, but the bride asked the fortune teller and said that the banquet hall on the left was not good and she had to change it to the one on the right."
"In order to please his young wife, the groom paid people in the hotel to handle the matter. The hotel staff took the money and lied to my aunt and her family, saying that the banquet hall on the right was bigger and the price was the same."
"Her aunt felt that the advantage was not in vain, so she agreed to change the place."
"As a result, the ex-wife didn't know that the place had been changed, so the people she found went to the banquet at your aunt's house to throw dirty water."
"What happened next?"
She was also a victim in this matter, so she couldn't go without compensation.
If she felt that she was unlucky for her aunt's family's troubles and had to suffer for others, she couldn't just let it go.
Feng Changyu said: "The two sides are still arguing. You can rest in peace and recover. Your aunt will handle this matter. Don't worry, your aunt has said that she will compensate you at a high price."
Feng Xinyao nodded and suddenly said something again: "I need to take the opportunity to go to the hospital for a full-body examination. What if I also have problems in other places?
You can't let those people go like this.
Feng Changyu agreed, and the next day he took his daughter to the hospital where Xu Pei worked for a check-up.
Everything that could be checked was checked. After the results came out, Feng Xinyao felt relieved that there was nothing wrong.
Feng Changyu glanced at her wordlessly and told her to take a taxi back by yourself.
Feng Xinyao returned alone and met Min Wangyue as soon as she got out of the car. He was relieved to see that Feng Xinyao could still walk upright.
"Ms. Feng, are you free? I want to talk to you."
Feng Xinyao was not in a good mood and said in a strange tone, "What do you want to talk about? Falling in love?"
Min Wangyue: "..."
"Let's talk about the compensation for your injury."
As he spoke, he looked Feng Xinyao up and down, as if assessing Feng Xinyao's injury.
Feng Xinyao immediately acted as if she was too weak to take care of herself and was about to see the King of Hell. She said miserably, "Do you want to talk to me as the perpetrator? Do you know that because of you, I almost had a C-section of my spine removed, and I was only one step away from paralysis?"
Min Wangyue watched her performance quietly and said that the perpetrator was his cousin.
So when he called her yesterday to ask about her situation, was he spying on the enemy?
Ha, man.
"Miss Feng, how much compensation do you need to settle the matter?" Min Wangyue asked.
"I need to calculate it in detail. After all, the injury would affect my work to make money." Feng Xinyao said.
Min Wangyue asked when the calculation could be completed.
"The calculation would be done when my condition is better." Feng Xinyao said.
Seeing that she did not seem to be willing to reconcile easily, Min Wangyue patiently said, "If the compensation was reasonable, we could pay it immediately, but if it's unreasonable, yes, we will only go through legal procedures."
Yo, is he threatening her?
Feng Xinyao caught a glimpse of Grandma Pang, who was hiding behind the green bush, and suddenly walked up to Min Wangyue and hugged him.
Min Wangyue pushed her in panic, and Feng Xinyao fell to the ground.
She wailed, "Min Wangyue, you are not human."
Today, this sister will let you see what it means to touch porcelain[1].
Min Wangyue encountered this kind of situation for the first time in his life.
He looked at Feng Xinyao, who fell to the ground, and belatedly realized what kind of trap he might have fallen into, but he didn't know why she was like this.
If he has watched Gongdou dramas[2], he will know that these are all routines. It is a pity that elites do not watch domestic dramas.
Grandma Pang rushed out from the corner and hurriedly helped Feng Xinyao up, pointing at Min Wangyue. She cursed, "You young man, when a couple quarreled, they only quarreled. Why did you push her?"
Min Wangyue was at a loss and said, "We didn't fight; I was just..."
Grandma Pang didn't give him any refutation at all. She said that he dared to push her; she saw it, and she asked Feng Xinyao if she was okay.
Feng Xinyao clutched her waist with a pained expression on her face. She looked at Min Wangyue sadly and pitifully and at Grandma Pang while she was about to speak. There were tears hanging from the corners of her eyes.
She looked like a daughter-in-law who was bullied but dared not speak out.
Although Grandma Pang is a gossiper, she also has a righteous heart. She hates domestic violence from men the most, so she wants to deal with Min Wangyue. But Feng Xinyao grabbed her and shook her head with tears in her eyes.
"Grandma Pang, it's my fault. I just lost balance for a moment and fell. I don't blame him for pushing me after all; it's my fault," she just said.
Min Wangyue actually nodded. Yes, that's it; what she said were objective facts.
"Grandma, I don't feel good; can you help me go back?"
Grandma Pang glared at Min Wangyue and wanted to teach him a lesson, but based on Feng Xinyao's reaction, she decided to send her back first.
Feng Xinyao limped home in pain.
Min Wangyue thought about Feng Xinyao's words. It was clear that what she said was true, but he still felt that something was wrong with their expressions just now.
Min Wangyue, who had been cheated on, stood there and forgot to react.
Grandma Pang helped her back, saying that Min Wangyue was not a human; how could he bully a woman?
"It's a shame I wanted to introduce him to someone in the first place."
After saying that, she looked at Feng Xinyao again, coughed a few times awkwardly, and explained that she didn't know about her relationship with Min Wangyue; otherwise, she wouldn't blindly match others.
Then she asked Feng Xinyao, "Xiao Feng, aren't you very good at fighting? Why are you being bullied?"
People in the community still remember Feng Xinyao's reputation.
Feng Xinyao took the opportunity to show weakness and said, "Grandma Pang, I had an injury in my waist. In a society governed by laws, I'm a law-abiding citizen, so how could I hit people casually?"
Grandma Pang nodded deeply when she heard this, thinking that a prodigal girl would not be able to change her ways of life in exchange for gold. This daughter of the Feng family was not bad. Thinking about it this way, she is not a bad-tempered person.
Then she asked why the two of you were quarreling.
A righteous heart does not affect the curiosity of gossip. Grandma Pang's eyes were as bright as electric lights, and Feng Xinyao seemed to see a radio antenna above her head.
She could swear that as long as she said something today, by night, the whole community would have spread all kinds of news.
Feng Xinyao thought for a while and smiled bitterly: "Grandma, let me tell you, you can't tell others."
Grandma Pang patted her chest and assured, "Don't worry, grandma is not a person who talks nonsense."
Feng Xinyao looked at her, and both of them smiled sincerely.
Feng Xinyao then told how Min Wangyue interceded for his relatives and wanted to save compensation. She also vaguely said that it was all her fault. "How could I be so unforgiving? I can only blame my poor health for a slight fall. I just injured my waist. If it weren't for Dr. Wang's good medical skills, I might have had one of my tail vertebrae removed."

1. Touch porcelain is the practice of crooks placing ostensibly expensive, fragile items (usually porcelain) in places where they may easily be knocked over, allowing them to collect damages when the items are damaged.
2. Gongdou dramas: TV dramas based on fights in imperial palaces, Gongdou, literally translated as "struggles in the harem," are a kind of costume drama featuring the competition (and at times dirty tricks) among concubines seeking the emperor's support and favor so they can climb up the harem ladder.
