Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 157 - 155: Are We Really Being Unreasonable?
Once someone started, vegetable leaves and rotten eggs were thrown one after another.
But more often, it was mud and stones being hurled, and the Wang Brothers were furious, yet they could not stand up, being forced to kneel for a whole hour!
Finally enduring silently until they could stand, Ruan Mian calmly spoke to them again.
"Mr. Wang, since you are so sincere, shouldn’t there be something else you need to do properly?"
"Our shop was smashed like this by you, besides the normal compensation, Mr. Wang, you also probably have to cover the days we were forced to close. Also, whether our shop can open again, Mr. Wang has to help tidy it up personally."
Aunt brought a cup of goji tea, leisurely swinging her legs, and agreed: "That’s right, that’s right, it’s indeed like that, otherwise, we won’t need to discuss forgiveness."
"You all..."
Wang the Second felt humiliated beyond measure, his fingers turning white, his veins almost popping out in rage.
"What about us? Are we unreasonable? Mr. Wang, if your shop was smashed, would you not have it tidied up and have the person compensate you?" "We’re not making it difficult for you, if you can’t do these things, then don’t go talking about wanting my forgiveness with those grandiose words!"
Aunt directly splashed the cup of goji tea onto him: "Get out!"
Wang the Elder immediately stopped the about-to-explode Wang the Second: "Isn’t it just tidying up the shop and compensating? Since we said it, we can do it."
They had no other retreat and could only be forced to agree.
Thus, Manager Gu and the other young assistants supervised the Wang Brothers tidying up properly.
Ruan Mian and Aunt could then complete their task and went to the market to buy some things to take back to the house.
By this time, the road was almost repaired, with only five miles left, they bought a few carriages this time for convenience later on.
Aunt felt a deep sense of satisfaction all the way, in high spirits.
"Ah, Mianmian, our aunt and niece duo are living so freely! By the way, didn’t you say before that your space needs to accumulate goodwill value to exchange for better and more rare materials?"
"Quick, check, just now when we dealt with the Wang Brothers, did you accumulate goodwill value?"
Ruan Mian didn’t need to look closely; whenever goodwill value accumulated, a voice in her head would remind her.
It was the same just now, and the goodwill accumulated quite a bit, proving those Wang Brothers did a lot of malicious things.
The worse the person, the higher goodwill value would accumulate after being taught a lesson.
However, as they approached the house, Vice Minister Dong’s voice suddenly came from ahead.
"Miss Ruan! Miss Ruan, there is one thing that requires your help."
Rarely seeing him so anxious, Ruan Mian stopped in her tracks and questioned with curiosity: "What is it?" Vice Minister Dong lowered his voice to say a few words, causing Ruan Mian and Aunt to frown.
They couldn’t afford to waste time, only saying: "Lord Vice Minister, please go to the house to get my medical kit, I will head there immediately."
Vice Minister Dong nodded quickly, and after he left, Ruan Mian summoned the White Tiger, took Aunt, and swiftly headed towards the cave where General Huo once stayed!
In a short time, they reached the entrance of the cave and upon walking inside, they found a dying man lying on the ground, nearly unconscious.
Ruan Mian hurriedly went forward, Aunt helped the man up, Ruan Mian saw traces of his wound being treated, naturally assuming it was Vice Minister Dong’s doing.
So she took out a set of silver needles from her space, and after inserting them into acupoints, the fainted man suddenly took a breath and slowly woke up.
"I was sent by Vice Minister Dong to treat you, hold on, it will soon be better."
Saying this, she fed him a bit of spiritual spring water, sustaining his breath, and then treated his excessively bleeding wound.
The cut was caused by a sharp weapon, injuring the leg tendons, though not fatal, but losing too much blood, almost at the gates of death.
Ruan Mian used the new goodwill value from her space to exchange a portion of anesthesia.
Such a deep wound, even sewing it up would take time, the pain unbearable without anesthesia.
With anesthesia, it was different, it also improved her efficiency.
So by the time Vice Minister Dong arrived, Ruan Mian had already treated the wound.
As Vice Minister Dong was surprised, the Junior General finally had the strength to speak.
"As...Assistant Minister, earlier, that girl who saved me, she went...went to the barracks to pass on your words, to stop General Huo from meeting the Xuanjia Army."
"What?"
"Assistant Minister, what girl?" Ruan Mian looked over, puzzled, Vice Minister Dong’s expression tightened, quickly explaining.
"Miss Ruan, the injured Junior General was first discovered by Miss Qing, the Junior General came to find me to deliver a message, telling Lord He that the Xuanjia Army will come to support General Huo, victory is in sight. Unfortunately, midway, he was harmed by villains, barely managing to run into this cave with his life."
"At that time, Miss Qing found me, asked me to find you, then she stayed to care for the Junior General. But...what does this have to do with the Xuanjia Army?"
Ruan Mian was slightly surprised, frowning, behind these words, a lot of trouble was about to be involved. But the first reaction was about Ruan Qing stopping General Huo.
Vice Minister Dong and the others did not yet know the Xuanjia Army had already switched sides, being part of King Yan’s faction.
But Ruan Qing overheard her mention it inadvertently, so Ruan Qing didn’t want General Huo and his men to be schemed by the Xuanjia Army, fearing being too late to impede them, so she urgently headed to the barracks.
She probably thought, if she slowed down a bit more, or waited for her to come over, Huo Zong and the others might be wiped out, falling into the trap of the Xuanjia Army.
That silly girl! For others, doesn’t she consider her own safety?
Even Aunt was shook for a moment.
"Ruan Qing went alone, even if she knows the route to the barracks, as a young girl, isn’t she afraid of encountering wild beasts?! That silly girl, we need to hurry over to find her."
After Vice Minister Dong said this, he was about to rush out of the cave, but was stopped by Ruan Mian.
"Lord Vice Minister, you stay here to take care of the Junior General. Aunt and I will go find Ruan Qing."
"But Miss Ruan, you two ladies going..."
"We know the way, and we have horses, the two of us can also look out for each other."
Ruan Mian didn’t give him a chance to object, and she and Aunt rushed out of the cave in tacit understanding.
Vice Minister Dong couldn’t rest easy about them! Insistently chasing after, he found that they were already out of sight.
How did they disappear so quickly??
At this moment, the two of them, on the back of the White Tiger, raced forward at breakneck speed.
Aunt shouted with her voice open: "Mianmian! I don’t quite understand the matter of the Xuanjia Army, but there is something I should have told you earlier."
"Just now, I was chatting with an old beggar who is a jack-of-all-trades at the market, that person told me, the Lanqiang Army is about to take off the old house of the Da Jing people. They have the most advanced cannons, with a range of over a hundred meters, if they directly use cannons, will those camps of Da Jing protect them?"
