Chapter 1890: Compensation to Fang’s Mother-in-Law
,!
Qi Lie looked at Granny Fang and Guo Zheng again, "In addition, Chen Bing has admitted that Fang Caixia should be the one who saved people and received the favor thirty years ago. If this is the case, the money given by the other party as repayment should also belong to Fang Caixia. Since Fang Caixia She and Chen Bing are no longer husband and wife, and the money that Chen Bing cheated on should be returned to Fang Caixia."
Granny Fang was stunned, yes, yes, Chen Bing had just admitted what he had done back then.
Although these matters were moral issues and could not put him in jail, the money was actually transferred by Chen Bing, and of course it had to be returned to her.
Qi Lie continued, "Within five days, the Chen family must hand over the six hundred taels of silver that belonged to Fang Caixia to Fang Caixia."
Six, six hundred taels?
Chen Bing was stunned. If he handed over so much money, and if he was sentenced to jail later, what would his family use to keep him behind bars?
The Chen family could no longer hold back this time and collapsed to the ground.
Mrs. Pan probably knows how much money her family has. The family's expenses have not been low in recent years. Not to mention the food and clothing for her son and daughter. Her son married a wife and gave birth to children a few years ago, which are huge expenses.
The only source of income for the family was the grocery store, but after the boy Zhou Tiedong left, the business has not been very good. In addition, to take care of Agent Li's people, the previous savings have long been used.
The family now has three to four hundred taels of cash, even if it is full.
They also wanted to compensate Zhou Tiedong. Where did they get so much money? Unless the family's big house or shop is sold.
But if these are sold, how can they still live?
However, this was not the end, Qi Lie added, "Also, Chen Bing just admitted that he colluded with Agent Li to slander Guo Zheng, which caused him to suffer from many years of illness. He needs to compensate Guo Zheng fifty taels of silver."
When Chen Bing vaguely confessed his crime just now, Qi Lie asked a few questions carefully, including about Guo Zheng, and he admitted it.
Guo Zheng had tears in his eyes. How could he not be excited when he was cleared of wrongdoing for many years? He kowtowed three times and said, "Thank you, sir, for understanding everything."
The Chen family could not speak a word at this time. When Zhou Tiedong was originally imprisoned, Chen Bing asked the Zhou family to compensate him for stealing.
But the Zhou family's situation was really difficult, and the most they could spare was twenty taels of silver, all of which was given to the Chen family. Chen Bing also asked them to write an IOU and pay back the remaining two hundred and eighty taels slowly.
Now this IOU is naturally invalid, and the twenty taels of silver must be returned, plus the fifty taels of compensation.
There are seven hundred taels here, and there are 600 taels from Granny Fang, and 50 taels from Guo Zheng, for a total of seven hundred and twenty taels.
Oh my god, how can the Chen family have so much money?
Mrs. Pan wanted to pout it, but Mr. Pan on the side had a frosty look on his face. If the Chen family couldn't get the money, they would have to 'borrow' it from the Pan family. If they said it was a loan, they would definitely not pay it back.
Chen Bing looked dejected. All his years of business had gone to waste. He was penniless when he came to Chenggu County. Now... he is back to where he started, no, even worse than before.
He still has to go to jail, but I don't know how long he will be in jail.
Unfortunately, his idea was still too naive, Shu Yu thought, the heaviest blow had not yet landed.
Qi Lie was shocked and said, "Chen Bing, you colluded with the police to frame others, and you are greedy for money. It is really abominable. According to the law of Dashu, you should be beaten thirty times and sentenced to two years in prison. But!"
