Chapter 24 Triggering Side Quests



"Xiushui, Ruzhu, things will be a little uneasy for a while, so you should learn from them."

Wen Ruzhu was full of confusion, while her eldest niece seemed a little excited.

"Wow, grandma is going to give a live lesson today. I'll go call everyone who's awake in our house."

"Mom, what's going on?"

The old lady smiled without explaining, just letting her see with her eyes and listen with her ears.

Wen Bibo looked at her with a meaningful look. This daughter was good in every way except that she was too kind.

She will have to be given a lot of loving education in the future.

Xiushui had just called her family when she heard several sets of hurried footsteps coming towards them.

Then, everyone saw several heads of the family rushing towards the old lady.

"Sister Wen, help me, I used to take good care of you when I was little, and I always gave you the delicious food.

I have no choice but to come here today, and I only ask you, old sister, to save my grandson's life for the sake of our brotherly relationship."

"Sister, sister, although I didn't take care of you when you were little, I did help you one year when you were chopping firewood. I chopped firewood for you for a long time for free.

We are just fellow villagers, you can’t just stand by and watch someone die, please save my old man, he’s almost dead.”

"You were chopping firewood for me? It's not because you stole my firewood and I stared at you, so you felt guilty and chopped a bundle to compensate me!"

"Wen Bibo, as your cousin, I'm asking you to lend a hand today. From now on, my boys will listen to you. If you don't lend a hand, you'll be watching someone die without helping."

Wen Ruzhu looked at the group of people who came to ask for medicine. Not only did they all play the family card, but they even tied family matters into their arguments.

She was stunned and grabbed Xiushui's hand and muttered angrily.

"Xiu, how can this group of people be so shameless? The polite ones would still talk about friendship, but the impolite ones almost just robbed it directly."

"Aunt, that's why grandma told us to stand aside and watch.

Because I know that in this world, it’s not just us who are reasonable, but everyone else is reasonable too.

It’s not that just because we are kind, others will also be kind.

Disgusting people will think others are just as disgusting. Scheming people will think others are scheming as well.”

Wen Ruzhu nodded. "Well, I'm too kind. I always think everyone in the world is a good person. I also think people should help each other.

I took it for granted.”

"The news of our family saving Ai Ai has spread, and these people can't get medicine from us...Are we going to be ostracized by them in the future?"

It seems that my aunt is not ignorant of the ways of the world, but she has seen few disgusting things and always uses her kindness to judge other people's conscience.

"Aunt, my grandma will take care of it. Just wait and see. During this famine escape, please watch more, think more, and learn more.

From now on, you won’t be tricked into leaving with just a piece of candy or a piece of cloth by some wild man out there.

Wen Ruzhu reached out and pinched her. "You, what are you talking about? Am I that bad?

He wants to coax me away with just a piece of candy and a piece of cloth.

Humph, you little girl are obviously younger than me, yet you still dare to tease me..."

There are many people around now, so her aunt won’t really pinch her.

It was just a scratch like a tickle, but the glare she gave her showed that she was really upset.

"Aunt, I'm afraid that if you continue to be so kind, the other party won't have to spend money or sugar cloth, just talk or labor to coax you away.

Alas, I am also worried about you."

Wen Ruzhu was so angry that she turned into a toad. She glared at her for a long time and finally rubbed her alopecia hard.

"You little brat, just keep talking nonsense. I'll deal with you later."

While the aunt and nephew were whispering to each other, a few more people came.

There are a few families here where no one has a fever, but they come to ask for medicine and ask for help because they have the same ancestors.

Everything he said was saying that if you, Wen Bibo, don't help, then you are not a member of the Wen family, but a heartless person.

The old lady looked at the group of people calmly without saying a word until the old village chief arrived.

He took out the excellent things in the bag directly from his arms.

"Sister, I won't say anything else. I'm just begging you to change the medicine.

Sanniu is my Zheng family’s child, we can’t just watch her burn to death.

If there is a medicine that can save her life, it would be worth it for us to give up this heirloom jade.

Sister, I know this thing may not be worth as much as your medicine, but it is the only valuable thing I have.

My third daughter has been rescued, and from now on her life is yours. All the people in the Zheng family are at my command.”

The onlookers stared with their eyes wide open, and they all found it unbelievable.

Some people even murmured that the old village chief was too foolish to sacrifice a family heirloom to save a money-losing item.

Wen Ruzhu widened her eyes and shook her arms excitedly.

"No wonder Uncle Zheng is the village chief. Look at what he said. He saved someone, gave a gift, and also did a favor.

My mother would feel embarrassed even if she didn't take the medicine.

However, if we give it to the village chief, won’t other people hate our family even more?”

That's how people are.

Don’t blame yourself for being incompetent, just blame others for being too capable.

Wen Bibo took the jade and nodded, glancing around.

"Everyone, you must have heard about my Xiu Ai's situation, so you came to me for help.

Yes, my family does have two doses of life-saving medicine, but these are just the medicines left by Master Ruzhu.

At that time, she said that this medicine had never been used on humans, so she discovered it through experimentation.

So they just let me take the medicine and use it in an emergency if there is really no other solution.

Whether you can save your life or lose your life depends entirely on luck.
