Chapter 916
The old coachman quickly shook his head when he heard this, where did he dare to say that she was a pig or a chicken, he just made an analogy: "The girl misunderstood, I didn't mean this, the girl is naturally a priceless treasure, so I said that the girl can't be priced by the catty, we judge things by facts, and if I am injured multiple times, how much will I pay for the medical expenses?"
He paid for all the medical expenses, and the doctor also said that it would be good to raise it for a few days, and he had to pay 100 taels.
He was also a little angry, this matter was originally caused by her constantly speeding up, he was willing to compensate, and was willing to gamble ten taels of silver for his greed, but she still wanted one hundred taels of silver, isn't this bullying him to talk!
That's why he said that she is a priceless treasure, she is not based on the price, they should be judged by the matter, if they are injured, ask the doctor to see the injury, and he will pay as much as he spends on the medical expenses, if she insists on paying an extra hundred taels, then she is a pig and chicken.
Master Fang understood, and he glanced at the old coachman: this coachman is a talker.
Mrs. Fang also understood, and she snorted coldly: "My daughter is naturally a priceless treasure, and now that you have injured her and has so much blood, how can you compensate her with a little silver so that she can replenish the blood! Do you know how expensive these blood-nourishing things like ejiao and ginseng are? One hundred taels is not enough to buy! My daughter only claims one hundred taels from you when she sees that you are poor, otherwise one thousand taels is not enough." ”
A thousand taels is not enough? It is really a shame that she can say it! Is her daughter a princess? It's just a drop of blood! Xiao'er couldn't help but complain when she heard this.
Jing Rui frowned, how could this person come here to be a fellow acquaintance?
The coachman heard this and looked down, Fang Wanping's skirt did have a few blood stains, not a lot of blood, the official lady is really expensive, if there is a little blood, he will replenish the blood, he admits it, but it will take less than a hundred taels to replenish the blood: "Madam, I will pay another ten taels of silver to replenish the blood of this girl! Do you think this is okay?"
"Ten taels of silver, are you calling Hanako?"
Ten taels of silver is sent to call Huazi, Xiao'er couldn't help but sarcastically said: "It seems that I am still a poor household, I am reluctant to send ten taels of silver to call Huazi, and I only gave one or two silver last time I sent Huazi!
Jing Rui really couldn't stand it anymore, he jumped off the horse and walked over: "Lord Fang, do you need any help?"
Fang Wanping, Mrs. Fang, and Lord Fang all turned their heads when they heard this, and then their faces were shocked, and their eyes flashed with emptiness: When did Lord Prefect arrive?
A few people subconsciously glanced at the direction of the road again, and two more carriages stopped on the side, obviously their carriages blocked the way of the prefect, and the prefect came over.
Jing Rui looked at them with a frightened face, and snorted coldly in his heart: The Lord who deceives good and fears evil!
"Master Fang, what's going on, do you need my help?" Jing Rui glanced at the old coachman and asked again.
The three of them came back to their senses, quickly put away the frightened expressions on their faces, and saluted respectfully: "I've seen Lord Prefect!"
"This is not a yamen, so there is no need to be so polite!What's the matter, Ling Qianjin was injured?What happened?" Jing Rui glanced at Fang Wanping, his eyes were indifferent, and he asked in a light tone.
"It was this coachman who refurbished the old carriage and fooled the guests, causing me to fall out of the carriage, and I was wounded and bleeding a lot, and he was not willing to pay the money. Fang Wanping, the aggrieved wicked person sued first.
In any case, you have to show weakness first, and the most important thing is to win the sympathy of the prefect.
Fang Wanping's moving eyes were filled with tears, coupled with the fact that the dress on her body had a few blood stains and mud, and her face was a little pale because she had been hungry for a long time, which made people feel pitiful at a glance.
If you don't know the truth, you will definitely be deceived by her like this.
"No, if it weren't for this girl's constant urging me to hurry up, my carriage would be old but there would be absolutely no problem! And I also paid ten taels of medical expenses, and I am willing to pay another ten taels of silver to replenish this girl's blood! It's just that this girl must pay me ......."
The coachman saw that the prefect was coming, and wanted to analyze it clearly, but Fang Wanping quickly intercepted his words: "No need, it's enough for you to help me pay ten taels of medical expenses, there's nothing for you here, you can go!"
If the prefect knew that he had to pay a hundred taels to the coachman, the prefect would definitely think that she was a greedy person, how could she leave such an impression in front of the prefect!
However, Fang Wanping was also a little puzzled, this coachman was an exception, ordinary people saw the officials, wasn't that so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly? He actually dared to complain! I really underestimated him, and thought he was a kind-hearted person.
"I really don't have to pay for that ......," the driver said deliberately.
"No, thank you for helping my daughter with her medical expenses, ten taels of silver is enough, as for the ten taels of silver you said, you don't need it, I advise you to use it to buy a new carriage, otherwise next time you use that carriage to pull people, what if people fall again, this time you are lucky, my daughter is just injured not too seriously, next time if someone dies, she will go to prison!" Mrs. Fang pretended to be a good person's persuasion.
Mrs. Fang didn't know if Jing Rui had heard what they had said before, so she could only act as if he hadn't heard it, and deliberately led Jing Rui to think in the direction of the coachman taking the initiative to pay more money!
"What Madame said is, thank you Madame and Mademoiselle for being so generous, then I will go back first. "The old coachman has lived to this age, how can he not see the tricks of these two women, but since he does not need to pay the extra one hundred taels of silver, he does not want to offend them, the people do not fight with the officials, and he also understands the principle of accepting when he sees a good thing.
Lord Fang nodded and said thoughtfully, "Go back, otherwise it will be difficult to walk when it gets dark." ”
Jing Rui pursed his lips, but he didn't expose him, and it was useless to expose it, after all, there is no hard and fast rule on the compensation for the silver, and the victim has to pay as much as he wants.
It's just that everyone has a moral yardstick in their hearts to measure whether this compensation is justified or not.
But Jing Rui didn't expose him, which doesn't mean that he won't give him a little warning: "Is Miss Fang seriously injured? This medical fee cost ten taels of silver? It just so happens that I know a doctor, and his medical skills are quite passable, or I will ask him to help you take a look, don't delay the injury, and fall into the root of the disease!"
Mrs. Fang and Fang Wanping became even more weak when they heard this, and the two of them subconsciously lowered their heads.
