Chapter 194 Compensation



After beating the groom, Aunt Yinping wiped her hands with a handkerchief from her sleeve with a look of disgust and stepped aside: "You bastard, who gave you the courage to ride a horse in the crowd?"

The groom was completely stunned when he heard Aunt Yinping's words. Huh? Didn't the princess say to hurry up? He was just following orders.

Although the groom had doubts in his mind, he didn't dare to ask them out loud. Big drops of sweat rolled down his forehead.

He had already been thrown off the carriage by Han Xiao and had a minor injury on his face, and now he was slapped in the face by Aunt Yin Ping, leaving his face completely disfigured.

The groom knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "I know I was wrong, please spare my life, auntie, just for a moment. I won't dare to do it again next time."

The groom knew that if he wanted to survive, he had to take the blame.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Yinping's eyes. It seemed that this lowly groom was not yet so stupid as to be beyond redemption.

The groom's head was bruised and blood was stained on the ground.

The small vendor behind Han Xiao didn't know what to do.

Han Xiao still had no expression on his face, and had no intention of interrupting Aunt Yinping from training the servants.

Because Han Xiao knew that Aunt Yinping was doing this just for him to see.

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, Aunt Yin Ping turned around and said to Han Xiao, "Is this young master satisfied? This is the groom who made trouble and rode the horse without permission. The princess has already punished him. Let's just let this matter go. As for these civilians..."

Aunt Yinping looked around, then took out a few silver ingots from her bosom and placed them on the vendor's seat.

"These civilians were injured. This money should be enough as compensation."

After saying that, he got on the carriage without waiting for Han Xiao's response.

When the coachman saw Aunt Yinping get on the carriage, he let out a long sigh and sat down on the ground.

I didn't dare to pause for too long before I stood up shakily and continued driving, but this time at a much slower speed.

Han Xiao frowned as he looked at the silver and money given by Aunt Yinping, thinking that this woman really had no good intentions at all and even gave him a difficult problem before leaving.

There were quite a few people injured just now, and the severity of each person's injuries was different.

So how to distribute this money is a difficult question for Han Xiao.

If Han Xiao planned to embezzle the money, it would be exactly what Aunt Yinping wanted. If this matter were to spread to the capital, she would be able to catch Han Xiao in the act.

The small vendor walked up to Han Xiao with a grateful look on his face. This time he really wanted to thank Han Xiao sincerely. If it weren't for Han Xiao.

So today he is really going to lose both his life and his money.

"Thank you very much, little brother."

Han Xiao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's just a piece of cake."

But as he watched more and more people surrounding them, Han Xiao's expression turned cold.

He grabbed the silver from the stall and threw it a few times casually. Those people's eyes were greedily glued to the silver.

But no one dared to be the first to speak out, and they just surrounded Han Xiao and the others.

The meaning is very clear, don't even think about leaving if you don't pay. Han Xiao is a foreigner himself, and foreigners are easy to control.

Han Xiao's expression remained unchanged as he continued tossing the silver coins. The merchant brother also sensed another threat, so he stood up and said, "Fellow villagers, these are given to this young man by that noble..."

"Bah, what's it for him? That woman clearly said it was compensation for us."

"Yes, it's for us. Look, my arm is injured."

"And my legs, they're covered in bruises."

"My daughter, my daughter was hit in the face by the whip. How the hell is my daughter going to find a husband in the future?"

“.......”

As more and more people gathered to watch, the vendor's expression became worse and worse. At this point, he didn't know how to deal with the situation and could only look at Han Xiao in embarrassment.

Han Xiao sneered, pulled the vendor away and told him to hide behind.

Then he looked around at the other people. In fact, many of them were just trying to take advantage of the situation. It was those who were really injured who were on the periphery and couldn't squeeze in at all.

"What? You all want this silver?" Han Xiao said with a sneer.

"What do you mean we want it? Didn't that woman say this is our compensation? You, an outsider, wouldn't want to take it all for yourself, right?"

When they heard that he wanted to keep it all for himself, everyone gathered closer.

Han Xiao didn't care. He just pulled over a bench and sat down, putting the silver on the table. "Okay, since you want it, then I'm sure you heard what Aunt Yin Ping said just now. It's compensation for the injured. Are any of you injured? I don't have the final say, and neither do you."

"Stop talking nonsense and hand over the money so we can divide it among ourselves." One of the young men couldn't help but stand up.

Han Xiao glanced at him coldly and said in a cold voice: "Who do you think you are?"

Everyone was suddenly frightened by Han Xiao's aura, especially the one who stood out, whose neck shrank.

"Chuyi, go get the doctor in town."

"Yes, son-in-law." Chuyi was disgusted with these people. They were simply greedy and hopeless.

The others looked at each other, and the atmosphere became tense.

The young master wanted to return to Han Xiao, but was stopped by Fifteen.

"Master, don't go over there yet. Let your uncle take care of it first."

"But, I want to be with my husband, he is alone..." The young master's eyes were full of worry, but he was really afraid that he would cause trouble for Han Xiao if he went there.

"Oh, don't worry. Just look at the look on my uncle's face and you'll know he's figured out a solution. Come and drink some water first. You haven't had any water for a long time. My uncle has instructed you to drink more hot water." Chuyi picked up the water bag and was about to feed the young master water.

"Oh, okay then." The young master drank the water obediently, but his worried eyes were still on Han Xiao.

Han Xiao noticed the young master's gaze, turned around and smiled at him, then made a gesture to tell the young master not to worry.

Soon Chuyi came running over with a middle-aged man.

"Sir, I've found the person. I heard that Doctor Zhao is the best doctor here."

Han Xiao nodded and asked Chuyi to go back and continue taking care of the young master.

He stood up and saluted the doctor: "I'm very sorry to bother you this time."

Doctor Zhao panted heavily and said in a deep voice, "It's not a problem, it's not a problem. This young man paid quite a bit for the consultation. Where are the patients?"

As he spoke, looking at the crowd of people gathered around, Doctor Zhao frowned.

Han Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Look, they are all here. A carriage just came by and injured a few people. The owner of the carriage left some money for them to see the doctor. That's why we troubled you to come here."

Mrs. Zhao was not stupid. After listening to Han Xiao's words and combining them with the current situation, she understood what was going on.

"Okay, then who'll come first? I've already written the prescriptions. If you're really injured, go get the medicine from me. You all know me anyway."
