Everyone listened to Lian Yeye's account and believed that Lian Lanlan wanted to use this incident to extort the Lian Family Old Mansion. Though the people of Thirty Mile Camp are simple folks, stories of extortion weren't unheard of, even if they hadn't witnessed them firsthand.
"If you're going to extort, you should target those with resources. As for the Old Mansion...," Lady Hu cut her sentence short.
Indeed, how much resources does the Lian Family Old Mansion have now, and how much can Lian Lanlan possibly extort from it?
"In the end, did the Old Master agree or not?" everyone asked Lian Yeye.
"My grandfather didn't agree," Lian Yeye replied.
Lian Lanlan tried hard to argue her case, but Old Master Lian was unexpectedly firm this time. Except for agreeing to punish Lian Shouyi and ensuring that Lian Shouyi and Lady He restore Yin Suo's reputation, he did not agree to any of Lian Lanlan's other demands.
