Village Chief Li was too lazy to care for the old lady, he turned away his head and saw Doctor Li squeezing himself from the crowd. Apparently, he seemed to be running all the way because he was sweating.
“You came, hurry, hurry and look at Zhao Lan. Her hand seems to be swelling than yesterday.”
Doctor Lu gasped for breath and said: “I just went to Hu Changlin’s house. Old Hu’s hand was also broken. I put some medicine and bandage his hand. So, I came late.”
Hu Feng originally wanted to go back home and see his father. But after hearing Doctor Li’s words, he turned back and stand beside Bai Zhi. Although he can’t do anything now, staying was still better.
Old Lady Bai rushed in front of Doctor Lu and said: “Look at my son, Dazhu first. Zhao Lan is used to living a hard life, so she won’t die easily. My son Dazhu’s injuries were heavier than her.”
Doctor Lu frowned and swept his eyes towards Bai Dazhu. He seems not having difficulty to breath: “Anyone who had eyes can see who was seriously injured here. You old woman only know how to speak ill.”
Old Lady Bai was still distressed with the 2 silver coins she lost with Doctor Lu. But now he was blaming her for the lack of morality? Old Lady Bai’s anger immediately burst out and shouted: “Why are you swearing? Do you think you are the only doctor here? You get out, we don’t need you to give us a cure.”
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she was so scared that she quickly released her husband"s arm and rushed forward to the old lady: “Niang, what are you saying? Dazhu is seriously injured. If he won’t get treatment, won’t he become disabled?”
Naturally, Old Lady Bai doesn’t want her eldest son to become disabled. But, how much would it cost her? Yesterday, Zhao Lan’s hand was only checked and bandaged, but it already cost her 2 silvers. Where will she get 4 silvers? How many days she has to save money?
Old Lady Bai swept her eyes to Hu Feng, then she immediately got an idea. She cried and said: “Village Chief, you also saw it. My son Dazhu was injured by Hu Feng. Now, Dazhu needs to be treated. You have to get the money for us, you have to give us justice.”
Village Chief Li looked at Hu Feng: “Did you hurt Bai Dazhu?”
Hu Feng nodded his head and said with indifference: “I hit him. He hurt my father first. I just made him paid for it. I didn’t ask for money for my father’s treatment, so we’re only equal.”
Village Chief Li only smiled inside his heart. He didn’t show it on the surface of his face, he only looked at Old Lady Bai and said: “Was Hu Changlin injured by your son?”
Old Lady Bai gritted her teeth and shook her head: “No, we didn’t hurt Hu Changlin. He fell on his own.”
At this time, the villagers who had witnessed the whole process with their own eyes shouted: “This old woman, you can speak without any conscience ah. At that time, we all saw the truth. Your Bai Dazhu beat old man Hu. Why are you denying it now?”
Old Lady Bai pointed her finger at the man and shouted: “Do you want to die a thousand times? This is our family’s business, so shut up your mouth! Why are you staying here? Get away from here, get out!”
The man said calmly: “So many people have witnessed your family hurt Old Man Hu. How dare you deny it?”
Old Lady Bai’s face become red and white, then from white to blue. No need to mention how exactly how she feels. Old Lady Bai straightens her back and said: “Yes, its true, Hu Changlin’s hand was injured by my son Dazhu. Dazhu only injured one of his hand, but Hu Feng injured both of my son’s hands. How about that?”
Hu Feng’s cold and sharp eyes swept slowly to Old Lady Bai, then he said word by word: “If people will not commit a crime on me, I will not commit a crime. But if people commit a crime on me, I’ll make him pay double.”
