Upon hearing that people who had gone out to work were returning to the village, everyone except Zhang the Bald Man's family was excited!

Those who heard it first told those who were behind them, and those behind told those even further back, and before long the whole village knew.

Everyone dropped what they were doing and ran towards the village entrance.

Although no one from Qin Yilin's family went out, Hu's family did, especially since Wenhua was among those who went out. Qin Yilin, who was originally planning to go back, changed direction and ran towards the village entrance.

"Hey, whose is that lying on the cart?"

"Why was it pulled back?"

"I hope nothing bad has happened."

Everyone's hearts were in their throats, and those at the back pushed forward, making the scene chaotic.

The children on the sandbag embankment had good eyesight and shouted to the crowd below, "It's alright, only two people were pulled down! Everyone else is fine."

Those below breathed a sigh of relief and began to whisper among themselves: "They must have run into trouble on the road. No wonder Master Bai is charging 100 coins a day. Things aren't peaceful outside."

"That's right, it's all thanks to my husband's wisdom that he didn't go and earn that deadly money!" Aunt Zhang straightened her back and said triumphantly.

People around her shifted their distance, keeping their own.

"Of the seventy or eighty men, only two were injured. Fortunately, Master Bai was willing to hire a lot of people; otherwise, it would have been more dangerous with fewer men."

Aunt Zhang interjected, "Maybe others were also injured, but it wasn't serious and they can still walk, so we didn't notice."

If she were to say something happened, how could only two people be injured? It must be that the two who were seriously injured couldn't even walk, while the others who suffered minor injuries had no choice but to grit their teeth and walk on their own.

Grandma Xu scolded angrily, "If you can't speak, then don't speak! Nobody thinks you're mute."

Aunt Zhang curled her lip, thinking, "These people must be heartbroken."

Serves you right for being so greedy and trying to make money. If you were like her, you might be poor, but at least you wouldn't get hurt.

Moreover, not only does getting injured cause suffering, but it also costs money to treat, so isn't that just a waste of money?

Some of the more agile people ran ahead to greet them, while most waited at the village entrance.

Upon receiving the news, the old village chief came out, leaning on his cane. As he got closer, he looked up at the young man on the embankment and asked, "Can you see clearly which family is injured?"

Gou Dan, standing on the embankment, shook his head. "I can't see them clearly. They're lying on the cart, but I saw Uncle Wu and Uncle Qiang. They're walking at the very front. Don't worry, Grandpa Village Chief."

The others panicked upon hearing this, realizing that their own family was more likely to be involved.

"Dog Egg, come check if my dog ​​is walking!"

"Take a look at mine too."

Sun Jinhua squeezed to the very edge, not in a hurry at all. There were seventy or eighty people, and only two were injured. What was there to worry about?

In her opinion, it's just bad luck for these two. Otherwise, why is everyone else fine, but they're the ones who got into trouble? No wonder others are blaming them.

"Father, Mother, my eldest and second brothers are inside too. Should we go and ask them?" Fan Sizhu said in a low voice.

Fan Qian replied in a low voice, seemingly unconcerned: "No need. Before your eldest and second brothers left, Father instructed them to run away first if they encountered danger, and never to confront them head-on!"

Let others fight; whether they win or not, as long as I'm safe, that's fine.

So he wasn't in a hurry at all. He stopped Sanzhu and Sizhu from going to the front to see, and they didn't even have the idea of ​​squeezing to the front.

As long as their own family is alright, what does it matter to them whether other families live or die?

Fan Sizhu opened his mouth, not expecting such a thing to happen.

Fan Sanzhu's eyes lit up, and he gave his father a thumbs up, praising, "Dad, you've thought of everything!"
