Chapter 29 Compensation, the fate of Wang Yuanwai’s family

Qiao Ran curled her lips.

Report it to the government? In this wilderness, where can I find the government?

She glanced at Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wang coldly. The sharp look in her eyes frightened the two of them, and they closed their mouths subconsciously.

"You said this carriage is yours? What's the evidence? Look at my carriage. How is it the same as yours?"

"I saved a gentleman from the city, and they gave me this carriage. You insist on saying it belongs to you. Why, are you trying to blackmail me? If you injure or kill someone, don't you pay compensation quickly? , are you still trying to get into my carriage?"

"Where did you come from, bandits and robbers? Are you so unscrupulous because there are no government officials to control your escape? What do you think of us villagers?"

Qiao Ran's words made the angry or sad villagers standing aside look at the way they came.

Seeing the mess on the ground and thinking of the brutal and cold-blooded behavior of this group of people, he immediately believed Qiao Ran's words and pointed at the Wang family and cursed.

"Yes! You bastards who don't take human life seriously, you hurt someone and don't pay compensation quickly, and you actually want to blackmail other people's carriages! Where are these bandits and robbers from? Do you really think that others can't do anything to you? Folks, let's go up ! Beat this group of robbers and murderers to death and avenge the injured and killed villagers!"

"Murderer! Executioner! Give my mother her life back!"

"Give me back my brother's legs! You bad guys! You bastards!"

"You son of a bitch! You're not a human being! I'll beat you to death!"

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation and stepped forward to punch and kick the Wang family, until more than a dozen of the Wang family's masters and servants screamed.

In the end, several village chiefs came forward and managed to persuade the angry people to leave, and rescued the master and servant of the Wang family who were beaten to death.

Several village chiefs discussed it and concluded that the incident had happened and could not be undone, but they could not beat the perpetrator to death.

So they left the dozen or so people who were beaten to half-life on the roadside, searched them for all their money and valuables, and took out their two carriages and all the supplies on them. , compensation will be made according to the number of people hit and the degree of casualties.

The family of the old lady who was killed was compensated 10 taels of silver, and the other people who were injured were compensated 2 to 8 taels of silver respectively according to the degree of injury.

The two carriages were used for the injured to sit on, and more than a dozen injured people crowded the two carriages.

Everyone helped dig the hole and buried the old lady who was killed.

The old lady's family members didn't care how sad they were. After burying the person, they immediately moved on with the others.

In fact, the old lady from Chenjiacun was already weak, so she did not follow the people from Chenjiacun, but fell behind the Qingshui Village team.

It seems that the old lady's body will not last much longer, and she will suffer as she flees. Not only does she suffer, but her family also suffers.

Now that the old lady is gone, she has left ten taels of silver as compensation for her family. After being sad, the family is relieved.

Many human tragedies occurred on the way to escape from famine. It was common for old people and children who were lagging behind to be abandoned. Some children were even sold by their parents for dozens of copper coins or even one or two kilograms of grain.

The death of the old lady not only relieved the family, but also brought so much money to the family. The family felt that the old lady died well.

The people in Qingshui Village looked at the people from Chenjia Village who changed their faces from sadness to smiling eyes in a short time, but they only felt cold in their hearts.

Until now in Qingshui Village, no family has ever sold their children or abandoned their elders.

If anyone dared to do such a thing, the spittle of the villagers would drown him out!

Qiao Ran accidentally saw the faces of that family and was disgusted.

Human nature is more vividly revealed when faced with difficulties and dangers.

Thinking about how stupid the original owner was, he used all the food at home to support Wang Lusheng's family, and was not abandoned or sold by the Qiao family. This shows how good the Qiao family's character is.

The fact that she can travel into this body and have such a good family must be God's compensation for her!

Let her, who didn't have many relatives in her previous life, be able to feel so much and such deep family affection in this life!

When they stopped to rest at night, the injured in the two carriages were carried or carried out of the carriages by their relatives.

The old village head of Qingshui Village and some villagers from several villages who knew a little bit about herbal medicine all came forward to help.

However, their medical skills were limited and they had almost no medicinal materials. Faced with these dozen or so lightly or seriously injured people, they were helpless and could only perform simple bandages.

Listening to the painful moans, especially seeing the child whose leg was broken, Qiao Ran couldn't bear it.

Qiao Ran went into the woods, looking for some herbs to treat injuries.

However, it was dark at night, and this was beside an official road, not deep in the mountains, so it was not that easy to find herbs.

In desperation, she looked around and entered her own space courtyard.

Not long after, Qiao Ran came out of the woods and walked towards the village chief and others with two handfuls of herbs.

"Grandpa Village Chief, these are some healing herbs I found in the woods. These small thistles are for external application. Crush them and apply them to the wound."

"These Purple Gold Dragons are used to make concoction and drink it. People with internal injuries drink a bowl each, and those with minor injuries don't need to drink."

The old village chief looked at the two handfuls of herbs in Qiao Ran's hand in surprise and asked, "Girl Ran, when did you learn medical skills? How do you know that these herbs have the effect of healing injuries?"

Qiao Ran smiled slightly and whispered in the old village chief's ear:

"Grandpa, the village chief, I picked up a book on the roadside two days ago. I don't know what it is. And didn't I hurt my head the day before yesterday? When I was in a coma, I felt like I was drifting to a place. In a place surrounded by clouds and mist, an old man with a white beard gave me a book, and the book was exactly the same as the one I picked up, so I knew it was a medical book."

"My grandpa taught me medicine and taught me many things. I stayed there for several years. But when I woke up, I realized that I was actually unconscious for only a short while. I didn't know why. It's like I'm dreaming. Time flies very fast in the dream, but the medical skills and knowledge I learned in the dream remain firmly in my mind. Don't you think it's strange?"

The old village chief couldn't help but widen his eyes after hearing this.

"Ran Yatou, you are such a fool but you are so blessed! Could it be that you have been favored by the old god? He has accepted you as his disciple?"
