Except for Wang Jiacheng, everyone lowered their heads.

Wang Tiezhu hesitated for a moment and whispered, "She's quite pitiful. Let's each contribute three taels."

No matter what, Xiao Yanchen must not be allowed to know about this scandal.

But Xiao Yanchen couldn't possibly not know, after all, he had people in the team.

However, his people also took advantage of Chen Xinxiu.

There were about twenty-five officials, and each received three taels of silver, which amounted to seventy-five taels.

Although Wang Jiacheng had never touched Chen Xinxiu, he also paid one or two taels of silver.

The man woke up when he was lifted onto the donkey cart.

As soon as Chen Xinxiu opened his eyes, he started shivering.

Xie Fanjin gave him another shot: "Don't get excited. If you get too excited in this situation, you'll die."

Chen Xinxiu closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Why did you save me? You just want me to live a life worse than death... I can never hold my head up in front of you for the rest of my life, right?"

Xie Fanjin's expression remained calm. "I'm a doctor. I won't stand by and watch someone die. Secondly, the Buddha said that all beings are equal, which means that in the face of life, there is no distinction between high and low..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Xinxiu laughed, and his laugh was very sarcastic.

How is it possible that all beings are equal? ​​People are born with different social status. Otherwise, why is there a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children? Otherwise, why are the lives of the poor as miserable as those of ants? Otherwise, how could she end up like this?

Xie Fanjin also laughed: "Looking at your expression, you are denying me, so you also feel that you are lowly and unworthy of being in a refined place, right?"

After hearing this, Chen Xinxiu was speechless.

Doctor Zhang had been watching from afar. He thought that Xie Fanjin would definitely not be able to save Chen Xinxiu's life. As soon as Chen Xinxiu died, he would give her a good lesson.

But unexpectedly, Chen Xinxiu not only woke up, but also had the energy to talk to Xie Fanjin.

He clutched the medicine box tightly in his hand and wanted to check on Chen Xinxiu's recovery, but when he thought of Xie Fanjin's attitude towards him, he held back.

Humph, it was just Xie Fanjin's luck. How capable could she be?

She was lucky this time, but she won’t be so lucky next time. He is waiting for Xie Fanjin to be in trouble!

Xie Fanjin glanced at Doctor Zhang's departing back and raised his hand to call Chen Xinyuan over.

Chen Xinyuan came over at a shrewd trot: "Master, what are you calling me for?"

Xie Fanjin: "Take good care of her. If she dies, I will have to pay for her life."

Chen Xinyuan pulled Xie Fanjin and said, "Then tell me, will she commit suicide to avenge you?"

Xie Fanjin looked at Chen Xinyuan with a little more appreciation. After the incident of her hanging herself, he realized that she had become really smart.

Xie Fanjin met Chen Xinxiu's gaze and said, "I've never hurt you. You're the one who's asking for trouble. If you want revenge, it's not my turn, right?"

Chen Xinxiu thought of Old Madam Chen's face again, as well as all those people who had humiliated her.

Yes, there was indeed no deep hatred between her and Xie Fanjin. Everything was her own fault.

After all, Xie Fanjin has tied his life to hers, which shows that Xie Fanjin really hopes that she will survive.

Chen Xinxiu also knew that even if she pointed out Old Madam Chen, she would not admit it and might even bite back, so she could only take care of herself first.

The old couple of the Chen family will not let Chen Xinxiu get better. Before, they did this to prevent Chen Xinxiu from being embarrassed again, and now they do this to take Xie Fanjin's life.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Old Lady Chen stuffed another fifty taels of silver into Wang Tiezhu's hand and said, "My granddaughter is in this state. I really can't bear to see her suffer any more. I heard she suffered a serious head injury and might have to stay in bed for the rest of her life..."

Old Madam Chen said this and wiped away her tears.

Wang Tiezhu was also shocked. He had seen cold-hearted people before, but he had never seen anyone so cold-hearted. He was simply cruel.

The old woman didn't kill Chen Xinxiu, but actually let him do it.

He took the silver and said with a smile: "Don't worry, just wait for good news."

Old Madam Chen choked up and said, "What good news... What misfortune for our family..."

As soon as she turned around, she saw the face of Mrs. Chen Er.

Old Madam Chen patted her chest and said, "What are you doing? You walked without making any sound and scared me!"

Madam Chen Er raised her hand and slapped Madam Chen fiercely: "You old woman, you two have hurt my daughter like this, and you still want her to die!"

Mrs. Chen Er originally didn't believe that it was Mrs. Chen who beat Chen Xinxiu. When she saw Mrs. Chen sneaking around to find Wang Tiezhu, she followed her quietly. She didn't expect it to be true.

Old Madam Chen was slapped in the face and stared at Second Madam Chen in disbelief.

Mrs. Chen Er wanted to slap Mrs. Chen again, but was stopped by Mr. Chen Er: "You vicious woman, what do you want to do!"

Madam Chen Er pointed at Madam Chen Lao and said, "That damn old woman actually bribed the police to kill Xinxiu!"

Mr. Chen Er's face darkened as he slapped Mrs. Chen Er's face: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could my mother do such a thing?"

Old Madam Chen came to her senses, sat down on the ground, slapped her thigh and cried, "Oh my, this is outrageous! My daughter-in-law actually slapped me, her mother-in-law... I clearly meant well... I felt sorry for Xinxiu and wanted the officials to find some good supplements for her... But my second daughter-in-law slandered me and wanted to kill her..."

Upon seeing this, Mr. Chen Er started beating and kicking Mrs. Chen Er: "You vicious woman, you dare to slander my mother? I'll beat you to death!"

Mrs. Chen Er screamed and rolled on the ground. She wanted to say that it was Mrs. Chen who wanted to kill Chen Xinxiu, but she couldn't say it out loud because the Chen family wouldn't believe it.

Mrs. Chen Er screamed in agony and could only beg for help: "Brother... Sister-in-law, help, help..."

"Who among you dares to meddle in other people's business?" At this time, Mr. Chen spoke in a cold voice.

Chen Qingbo, who originally wanted to say a few words of advice, now shut up.

But Mr. Chen Er was too cruel, and Mrs. Chen Er was beaten black and blue in the face in a short while.

She was kicked again by Mr. Chen Erye, and her body hit the carriage beside her.

She could only ask for help from the people in the carriage: "Second Prince, Second Highness, help me..."

Master Chen grabbed Madam Chen Er by the collar and threw her aside: "How dare you disturb the Second Prince? I will beat you to death today!"

At this time, the curtain of the carriage slowly opened. Shen Anan glanced at the embarrassed Madam Chen Er, and then said, "His Highness is resting. If you dare to disturb him again, I'm worried about your lives!"

Mr. Chen Er was so angry that he felt dizzy. Chen Xinyu, a junior, actually dared to speak to him like that.

Thinking about the mess the Chen family was in, he collapsed and slapped his thigh, crying and jumping up and down: "Oh my god, what the hell is going on..."

After watching the excitement, Xie Fanjin said to Chen Xinyuan, "You must take good care of Chen Xinxiu. This is the first task I give you. If you can't even do this, there's no way you can learn medicine from me."

Chen Xinyuan never dreamed that Xie Fanjin would agree so quickly.

Before she could say anything, Xie Fanjin raised his hand to stop her: "Put aside your little thoughts. I don't believe you will be a loyal disciple, and I won't accept you as my disciple. But it's not impossible to teach you some medical skills so that you can have a good future."

Chen Xinyuan felt mixed emotions for a moment. It turned out that Xie Fanjin had known for a long time that she was not really interested in becoming his disciple, but was only doing it for the benefits.

However, after Xie Fanjin said this, she felt a little more relieved.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of her."

At noon, when everyone was resting, Xie Fanjin took Chen Xinxiu's pulse.

Given Chen Xinxiu's physical condition, it is not easy to move her, but in this situation, no one can delay their journey just because of her.

If Chen Xinxiu was left behind, it would be difficult for her to survive.

Mrs. Chen San was worried that Chen Xinxiu's head would be affected again, so she made a suitable pillow for her with buckwheat husks. She also put a soft cushion under her body, making it more comfortable for her to lie on the donkey cart.

After Mrs. Chen San adjusted Chen Xinxiu's pillow, she smiled and said to Xie Fanjin, "Thank you for your hard work. If it weren't for you, who knows what this girl would be like now."

Xie Fanjin gave Chen Xinxiu another injection: "I didn't save her in vain. I still have to pay for her medical expenses."

Didn’t she squeeze out more than seventy taels from those officials? Xie Fanjin wanted to deduct ten taels for medical expenses.

After hearing what Xie Fanjin said, Chen Xinxiu was not angry, but felt it was ridiculous. She had exchanged her innocence and life for just over seventy taels of silver.

Mrs. Chen San was about to say something when the donkey pulling the cart suddenly seemed frightened, brayed twice at the top of its lungs, and started running away.

Xie Fanjin was originally sitting next to the donkey cart, giving acupuncture to Chen Xinxiu. The donkey cart was shaking and she almost fell to the ground.

Xie Fanjin could only try his best to control his body balance. If he fell headfirst, he would not know how painful it would be.

"Oh no! The donkey cart has run away!"
