A car accident, our family of three crossed

After getting the medicine, the two came out of the drugstore together. When they were about to part, they happened to run into the sedan chair of County Magistrate Peng Desheng.

Peng Desheng asked the sedan bearer to stop the sedan, lifted the curtain and looked at the two men unkindly, "Aren't these Student Hang and Constable Wang? You two seem to have a good relationship."

When Wang Jin saw Peng Desheng, he bowed and said, "Sir."

"It's the county magistrate." Hang Shuheng smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I came down to get medicine, and Constable Wang also got medicine at this pharmacy. I ran into the county magistrate again when I went out. Isn't that a coincidence? Is the magistrate feeling unwell? You are busy with official duties, so you should take care of yourself!"

"I didn't expect that I have such good luck with people in the government office. I can meet two of them by chance when I'm getting some medicine."

"Hang Tongsheng is still so eloquent. Thank you for your kindness. I am not uncomfortable." Peng Desheng really didn't know why he stopped to provoke him. He was ridiculed and lowered the curtain. "Humph! Let's go."

Watching the sedan going away, Wang Jin kindly reminded, "Hang Tongsheng, the county magistrate and Master Wan have suffered a great loss from you this time. You still have to be careful. I'm afraid they will retaliate in the future. After all, they were careless and underestimated the enemy this time, catching you off guard."

"Thanks for the reminder!" Hang Shuheng naturally understood that the reason he was able to escape successfully this time was entirely due to his opportunism, but he was still very grateful for Wang Jin's reminder, "But Constable Wang, you are working in the county government, I'm afraid that the petty-minded county magistrate will inevitably make things difficult for you in the future."

"Humph! I'm not good at dealing with him anyway." Wang Jin sneered, and then said goodbye to Hang Shuheng: "In any case, Hang Tongsheng, you should be on guard against any trouble. If you need my help, feel free to find me in Xiaoyu Hutong. I'll take my leave today."

"Farewell."

After they parted, thinking that his old mother had not taken her medicine today, Wang Jin hurried home with the medicine.

When he returned home, he heard coughing coming from the house. He quickly put down the medicine and went into the house to check.

"Mother! How are you?"

A woman in her early forties was sitting by the window in the room, mending her clothes in the light coming through the window, coughing from time to time.

Seeing him come in, the woman's face was full of smiles: "It's Ah Jin who's back. Ahem, look at you, your clothes are so torn and you didn't even tell your mother, ahem."

If she hadn't had the sudden impulse to go to her son's room to sort out his clothes, she wouldn't have noticed that so many clothes had tears of varying sizes.

"You should stay in bed more and rest, and worry less about these troublesome things." Wang Jin took the needle and thread and clothes from her hands.

"Oh! It would be great if you had a wife, then I wouldn't have to worry about these things." The Queen Mother sighed, "It's all because of my poor health that you are a burden! Otherwise, you wouldn't be unable to find a wife at your age."

"So you have to take good care of your health so that you can tell your son that your wife is not a good wife." Wang Jin joked with her, and then said, "Take a rest and stop sewing my tattered clothes. I'm going out to boil medicine."

"Where did you get the silver to buy the medicine?" asked the Queen Mother. She knew how much silver there was in the family.

Wang Jin pretended to be relaxed and said, "Just two days ago, we brothers helped the master to do an errand. We did a good job. The master was very happy and rewarded us with a little money."

As he spoke, he took out a purse from his bosom, which had been packed in advance, and contained about a few dozen copper coins. "There are still some copper coins left. My son has kept a few copper coins for me to spend. You can keep the rest. I will ask you for them when I need them."

He had some money left after paying off the medical bills from the money he borrowed from Hang Shuheng. In order to prevent his mother from thinking too much, he could only give her these copper coins so as not to arouse her suspicion.

"Good, good! My son has made great progress, ahem." Sure enough, the Queen Mother did not think much about it, and took the purse and was about to put it away.

Wang Jin felt very uncomfortable watching his mother's increasingly thin body, but he could only watch.

On the other side, after parting with Wang Jin, Hang Shuheng walked into a tavern and came out with two jars of wine. When he left this morning, the old man at home told him to bring back two jars of good wine, so the silver he brought out today was ten taels less.

Carrying medicine and wine, on the way to the city gate to meet Shuisheng, when passing through an alley, Hang Shuheng paused and took two steps back.

He saw a beggar with ragged clothes and disheveled hair lying crookedly in the alley, and a plan immediately came into his mind.

The beggar had been begging on the street for food but couldn't find it. He was prepared to go hungry, so he found an alley to get some sleep. While he was drowsy, he felt something hit him, but the force was not strong.

He suddenly sat up with a start, and the thing that had hit him just now rolled down. He thought he must be so hungry that everything looked like a big bun.

I rubbed my eyes and looked again. Surprisingly, the bun was still there. I quickly picked it up and said, "There is a bun."

It was still hot, so he ate it without hesitation. It was actually filled with meat. He ate more than half of the bun, which was the size of an adult's palm, in just a few bites. Suddenly, he heard a voice, "Are the meat buns delicious?"

The beggar paused while eating his bun and looked up towards the entrance of the alley. There was a man standing there. However, he couldn't see the man's face because the light was shining behind him.

While he was stunned, the man asked again: "Let me ask you, are the meat buns delicious?"

"Good, delicious, delicious, hehehe..."

The beggar smiled ingratiatingly, revealing a row of big white teeth, but the next moment, a hot package filled with buns was thrown into his arms.

The man said, "Do a favor for me, and all these buns will be yours."

The beggar was holding the hot package. He was a little confused by the overwhelming wealth. "Is what you said true? Are these buns for me?"

"Of course, all big meat buns."

The beggar was very excited when he heard this. He opened the package and counted the buns inside. There were actually ten big buns. Now he wouldn't have to go hungry for a while.

He immediately put on a servile manner and said in a flattering manner: "Sir, what do you want me to do? Just tell me, and please rest assured that I will do it for you properly."

"What I want you to do is actually very simple for you..."
