After being said this, Zhao suddenly felt that her words just now were inappropriate.
"I didn't think carefully enough, Mrs. Mo can't blame me."
She knew that Zhao's coming over was not just a matter of apology, but she did not reveal her true purpose.
Mrs. Mo then planned to issue an eviction order.
"Mrs. Fang, I can understand the feelings of the Fang family. I understand your apology. If there is nothing else, just go back to avoid being scolded by the officials."
When Mrs. Zhao saw Mrs. Mo starting to chase people away, she no longer remained reserved.
She carefully took out a gemstone ring from her tied hair.
"Mrs. Mo, would you like to exchange this ring for some fish?"
Zhao said, turning around and pointing to where her family was resting.
"My little son was so greedy that he cried when he saw you eating grilled fish. I really had no choice, so I asked you to come here. I hope you can take care of him."
Mrs. Mo looked at the gemstone ring in Zhao's hand, and then looked at the direction of her finger.
Sure enough, a little boy who looked to be eight or nine years old was wiping tears there.
"My ninth daughter-in-law caught the fish. If you want to change it, just tell her."
Mrs. Mo felt that she could not make the decision for her daughter-in-law in this kind of matter.
Mrs. Zhao was polite, turned around and walked towards the river.
It happened that He Zhiran had caught enough fish and was walking towards the shore.
She had just seen Mrs. Zhao talking to her mother-in-law, and probably guessed the purpose of her coming.
He Zhiran did not take the initiative to chat, but slowly put on his shoes and socks on the shore.
Ms. Zhao leaned forward and tried to maintain a decent smile.
"He... Heshi, can Auntie discuss with you how to exchange this ring for some fish?"
He Zhiran looked at the ring. The red gemstone was crystal clear, and it looked like a good thing at first glance.
It can be seen that Zhao really spent a lot of money for a few fish.
At the same time, I also guessed that the Fang family really didn't have any money, otherwise they wouldn't exchange such a good ring for a few worthless fish.
He Zhiran was not polite to Zhao and took the ring directly.
Then she pointed at the fish she had just caught and said, "The fish are all here. You can take them by yourself."
When Mrs. Zhao saw that the other party agreed, she thanked him profusely, then squatted down to get the fish.
He Zhiran was watching there. She wanted to see how many fish Zhao would choose to take away.
Zhao hesitated for a moment, then picked up the five fish.
"Are these okay?"
With the value of Zhao's ring, let alone five fish, even five hundred would not be too much.
But they were not greedy, they just took five pieces.
This gave He Zhiran a good first impression of Zhao.
"No problem, if it's not enough, you can get a few more."
Zhao shook her head: "No, I'm already very satisfied."
After saying that, she reluctantly glanced at the ring in He Zhiran's hand, turned around and left.
Just from that look, He Zhiran could conclude that this ring was very important to Zhao.
So, she chased after him and whispered to Ms. Zhao.
"There must be a misunderstanding between us. If you want to clear it up, please ask Uncle Fang to come to my husband after dark. Then everything will be revealed."
Mrs. Zhao solemnly nodded: "Okay, I will tell my master."
He Zhiran turned around and quietly sent the ring into the space for preservation.
She thought that if the Mo family and the Fang family could turn their conflicts into friendship in the future, she could definitely return the ring to Zhao.
Only, not now.
The sisters-in-law continued to clean up the crucian carp they had caught. He Zhiran grilled ten fish at Peng Wang's request and gave them all to him. As for who Peng Wang wanted to eat, that was his business.
After eating the grilled fish and seeing that it was almost time, Peng Wang gave the order to continue on his way.
The two hard laborers of the He family pushed the wooden cart again with a grimace.
The weather was still sultry in the afternoon, but fortunately He Zhiran boiled herbal medicine and gave it to some people to drink, which saved them from the danger of heatstroke.
The Mo family, the Xie family and the officials were fine.
However, the same cannot be said for the other three families.
While rushing on the road, people began to suffer from varying degrees of heat stroke symptoms.
Fortunately at first, their family members were able to keep up with the large army, carrying or carrying them.
However, as time goes by, more and more people suffer from heat stroke, and the few remaining healthy people cannot take care of so many people.
For a time, the entire exiled team was wailing.
At the same time, Xie's family and officials were also grateful to He Zhiran from the bottom of their hearts.
If it weren't for the herbs she prepared in advance, I might not have been able to escape the fate of heatstroke.
Seeing this, Peng Wang knew that he could not continue on his way, so he could only order to stop.
When encountering such a situation, Peng Wang's first thought was He Zhiran.
"Heshi, you still have to solve this matter."
He Zhiran disagreed.
"Master Peng, you have seen it these past two days. They have been scolding my Mo family. Why should I save them?"
He Zhiran thinks that he is not a holy mother, and he can save anyone if he knows medical skills.
Especially the He family and the Li family, it can be said that they hate Mo Jiuye deeply.
If Mo Jiuye stuck his head out, they would definitely chop it off with their swords.
She would never come to the rescue of such a malicious person.
Of course, the Fang family is different and can still consider treatment.
Peng Wang also knew this was true.
He was the leader in charge of the escort this time. There was nothing wrong with an accident on the road and the death or injury of several people.
But if there are too many people, he will not be able to explain to his superiors when he returns.
Therefore, he could only continue to persuade He Zhiran.
"Although they made huge mistakes, they are still living human lives after all. You can't just ignore them, right?"
He Zhiran had made up her mind. She crossed her arms and did not save Peng Wang any face.
"Master Peng, it's better not to say anything. If I say I won't save him, I won't save him."
"You..." Peng Wang also got angry, pointed at He Zhiran's nose, and wanted to curse, but finally held back.
"Heshi, I advise you to be smarter. There is still a long way to the northwest. There is no benefit in offending me."
He Zhiran's temper got worse and he was not willing to be outdone.
"What Mr. Peng said is wrong. If it were you, would you be willing to save the life of your enemy?"
"This..." Peng Wang was speechless.
He finally figured it out. This woman, Heshi, had a very fierce temper and was really not good at being tough.
So, he tried hard to control his emotions and said again in a consultative tone:
"How about you choose the ones you like and treat a few?"
Although He Zhiran was unwilling to let go of his pride, he also knew not to offend Peng Wang too harshly.
When you encounter the steps given by others, you have to come down when it is time.
She looked at the people suffering from heatstroke. The Fang family was doing pretty well. Maybe it was because they ate some fish for lunch and their bodies had some immunity. Only three people fell down.
The same cannot be said for the He family and the Li family. There are more than thirty people in the two families, and no more than ten people are still standing.
"Since Mr. Peng has said so, I will reluctantly treat a few of them."
