Chapter 233: Discovery (Make-up Update)
The elderly woman didn’t just verbally stop them, she was quick to act too, charging over and bumping into the two who were caught off guard by the chicken eggs, "These eggs are mine, and nobody else is allowed to pick them up!"
"Old lady, do the eggs have your name on them?" the two who had been pushed aside retorted angrily, "Have you no sense of reason?"
It seemed that a rather sordid incident was about to erupt over a mere puddle of egg liquid.
Yang PeiMin quickly asked the old lady, "What’s the matter, ma’am?"
The elderly woman glanced at her, then at the sack by her feet, and handed over a bag of eggs she was carrying, "Just now my grandson bumped into you and smashed your eggs. Here, these are to compensate you."
Although the elderly woman’s face was crisscrossed with wrinkles, her hair was black. Despite wearing old patched clothing, her complexion was ruddy and spirited. Just by observing her swift movements, it was clear that this old lady was in good health. She extended the bag of eggs toward Yang PeiMin again, "Take them, young lady, my arm is getting sore from holding them."
Yang PeiMin accepted the eggs, not expecting to recover her losses. Without counting how many there were, she nodded and smiled in gratitude at the old lady’s integrity, "Ma’am, you’re very responsible."
The elderly woman waved her hand dismissively, pointing to the spill of eggs on the ground, "I’ve compensated you for these, the ones that got smashed are mine now, and you two stop picking them up as well."
