Chapter 514 Is he really injured?
The moment Xu Yu approached, Sang Zhixia realized something was wrong.
The clothes were not the ones he wore when he went out, and Xu Yu also had a fragrance on his body that could not be described as faint.
After Sang Zhixia became pregnant, she became extremely sensitive to the smell of various spices. Xu Yu was very clear about this. This smell did not seem to come from anywhere, but rather seemed to be deliberately concealed.
Xu Yu walked with his back straight and gait as fast as a meteor. His face looked normal, without any sign of abnormality, but his lips were tinged with an indescribable paleness.
Sang Zhixia's eyes flickered across Xu Yu's shoulder, and she calmly held his hand and said, "Is everything done?"
"Um."
Xu Yu seemed extremely tired. He curled his lips and said softly, "He's fine. He's just temporarily unable to move around. I've brought him back."
Chen Jing'an was in critical condition and was lucky to be alive.
There were so many people around that it was inconvenient for Sang Zhixia to ask for more details. She just leaned towards Xu Yu's side, looking tired. Her hand, intertwined with Xu Yu's, supported his arm without leaving a trace. She said calmly, "I'm glad you're okay."
"Dian Cui, I'm uncomfortable standing. Go get me two chairs."
Sang Zhixia changed the subject and ignored the Wu couple's threats to send her home. She pointed to a spacious space nearby and said, "Put it here. I'll sit down and rest for a while."
Diancui trotted to find a chair, and Sang Zhixia pushed Xu Yu to sit down with her, half of her body intentionally or unintentionally blocking Xu Yu behind her.
Because of the old man's strategy of concealment, and the fact that Xu Yu did not have time to tell others when he went out, Xu Yu got the news of the accident on the farm later than Sang Zhixia.
In the emergency, Xu Yu had no time to react and could only try to contact Wu Lian in the Northwest Camp as soon as possible. When he rushed back, he asked Wu Lian to transfer a group of people from the camp to come and maintain order.
The benefits of having more people are immediate.
The farm was already in turmoil due to the rising tide of revenge rumors, and there was constant discussion.
But with a wave of Wu Lian's hand, hundreds of people quickly took control of the periphery of the farm. Teams of men in black continued to advance into the ruined farm in an orderly and calm manner without saying a word.
These words that had been impossible to stop before gradually showed signs of dying down, and the scene suddenly became less chaotic.
The reinforcements Xu Yu called for arrived just in time.
The news of Sang Zhixia's arrival quickly reached the ears of Xu Wenxiu and others. When these anxious people arrived, Sang Zhixia just smiled and waved his hand: "I'm fine."
I can withstand this little blow.
When I was forced to wait for news at home, I felt uncontrollable anxiety in my heart. But when I saw with my own eyes what the farm looks like now, the lingering emotions in my heart dissipated a lot.
Isn't it just ruined?
There was nothing on this land originally, so it is not difficult to rebuild it.
Sang Zhixia quickly closed her eyes to calm herself, then calmly spoke amidst the worried gazes of the crowd, "What's the casualty situation? Have you verified the numbers yet?"
Cheng Qi, who had arrived earlier, stepped forward and whispered, "If we go back to the boss, the general idea has already come out."
"So far, we've found 27 dead, 238 injured, 162 with minor injuries, and the rest with varying degrees of serious injuries."
"The doctors we invited are treating these people. Their lives are not in danger for now."
A cold look flashed across Sang Zhixia's eyes. She lowered her eyelids and remained silent for a moment. Then she said in a deep voice, "We will do our utmost to treat the injured and comfort the deceased."
"Pass on my words: those who have fled in today's chaos and whose sons are refugees will receive a pension of 500 taels of silver. Their living parents will be supported by the farm until they are a hundred years old, with 5 taels of silver per month and 1,000 pieces of rice per year."
"As a father, you will receive a pension of 500 silver. Your surviving wife and children will be the responsibility of the farm. I will pay for the youngest son's upbringing. If he wants to go to school or learn something, I will pave the way. Until he grows up and gets married and starts a family, each of them will receive 500 silver taels per month and the same amount of rice per year."
These people lost their lives because of the farm.
Whether it is spending money or labor, Sang Zhixia will not shirk at all and will take responsibility to the end.
Cheng Qi responded in a low voice, and Sang Zhixia continued, "The same applies to the injured. Regardless of the severity of the injury, I will fully undertake the necessary medical treatment."
"Until you recover from your injuries, in addition to the medical expenses, those with minor injuries that do not affect their lives will receive a monthly allowance of three taels of silver per person, and those with serious injuries will receive five taels of silver per person."
"If anyone becomes physically disabled as a result of this incident, the farm will take care of their livelihood for the rest of their lives, and their wages will be doubled, and this will remain the same for life."
The line between life and death has the greatest impact on people, and the families of casualties are the most heartbroken.
But Sang Zhixia's words were like a reassurance to these people who were in despair.
Those who unfortunately died did not have to worry about the future livelihood of their wives, children and parents, and those who were unfortunately injured or disabled could also find a way to make a living for the rest of their lives on the farm.
When the situation of life and death cannot be changed, this is an outcome that no one dares to dream of.
At least the souls of the deceased can rest in peace, and the living can inherit the deceased's legacy and live a less difficult life in the days to come.
Those who had suffered casualties in their families covered their faces and cried with both sorrow and joy, and the crowd was filled with unbelievable gasps.
Give five hundred taels at a time!
That’s a real five hundred taels!
With so much silver, these people might not even have the chance to see it in their entire lives, but Sang Zhixia said that he would compensate everyone who died today!
Amidst many incredulous gazes, Huashan and Diancui lowered their heads and walked forward. The box they opened was filled with white silver.
Sang Zhixia obviously came prepared.
Aunt Xie's face was heavy as she took the booklet from Cheng Qi's hand and raised her voice, saying, "Xie Tiesheng's family!"
"Come forward!"
The old woman who was called walked forward tremblingly, holding her ignorant granddaughter's hand. Sang Zhixia turned her head away without being able to bear to look at her any longer.
Xu Yu, who had been sitting silently, coughed a few times with his hand over his mouth. Without changing his expression, he wiped his palm on the haystack beside him and said hoarsely, "The hut that burned down today will be rebuilt before the New Year. By then, you and your grandson will be given a small hut."
"Don't worry, old man. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to the farm to look for me. I will take care of it for you."
When the elderly, young or old, possess large amounts of silver, they will inevitably attract malicious intentions.
But things were different with Xu Yu's words.
In Luobei Village, and even in the three northwestern cities, there are only a handful of families that can surpass the Xu family in wealth and power.
Moreover, the origin of the Xu family is a mystery. Although the old and young in the family seem to be kind, their unknown connections are actually unfathomable. Who would dare not be afraid?
With Xu Yu's explicit protection, even if someone dared to have bad intentions, they would have to think carefully.
The old woman was originally immersed in the sorrow of her son's escape and the fear of the future. She was caught off guard by Xu Yu's promise and immediately felt so grateful that she wanted to pull her granddaughter to her knees and kowtow: "Thank you for your kindness, Master. Thank you..."
"Old people don't have to do this."
Xu Yu's figure was so fast that it was almost impossible to catch him. He suddenly reached out and firmly supported the old woman who was about to kneel. Every word he said was weighty: "My husband and I are loyal to our words and will never go back on our word."
"We are sorry for what happened today, but we will do our utmost to protect you in the future and will never let those who have suffered as a result of this be bullied in the slightest."
Xu Yu helped the sobbing old woman to stand up with one hand, and sat down again after he finished speaking, his expression still calm.
But just as he passed by and sat down, Sang Zhixia's nose twitched slightly, catching the faint smell of medicine and blood in the air, and the fingers on her knees jumped uncontrollably.
Is he really injured?
