"The general is still in bed recovering from his injuries." Su Mei continued, "When the general woke up, he heard his wife talk about the kindness of Mr. Zhang and Miss Zhang, and he was very grateful. When the general was able to get out of bed, he and his wife came to thank him together."

　　"I don't deserve it, I absolutely don't deserve it. We didn't do anything." Old Man Zhang waved his hands again and again, "Besides, we don't have money to hire a doctor to treat us, so we can only go up the mountain to collect herbs. We didn't use the herbs properly, and we delayed General Gu's recovery. He almost let General Gu..."

　　Old man Zhang said with shame, "I am so ashamed. How dare I thank General Gu and his wife again?"

　　Su Mei shook her head and said, "Madam Gu said that no matter what, it was you who saved General Gu. You went up the mountain to collect herbs, which also allowed General Gu's body to sustain itself so that Madam Gu could find him. Otherwise, General Gu would have died in the wilderness..."

　　"So, General Gu and Madam Gu are here to thank you no matter what you say. Please don't refuse." Su Mei said, "This is also to fulfill General Gu and Madam Gu's gratitude."

　　"Oh, this..." Old man Zhang was also in a dilemma.

　　Because they had no money, they almost killed Gu Shangqing.

　　He said before that he would report the matter to the police and let the government handle it.

　　But Zhang Yingzi was not happy about it, so the matter was delayed.

　　It is true that they saved Gu Shangqing, but Zhang Yingzi's selfish motives were also mixed in.

　　This made Old Man Zhang unable to accept the thanks from Gu Shangqing and Li Mumu with peace of mind.

　　But if I don't agree, it would seem like I don't know what's good for me.

　　Old man Zhang was in a real dilemma.

　　Su Mei then said, "Send Miss Zhang home, and we will be relieved. Don't worry too much, old man. Our General Gu and Madam Gu are both grateful and repaying."

　　After saying that, Su Mei bowed to Old Man Zhang and left with Zhao Zhengxiang and his men.

　　Old man Zhang sighed and said, "Yingzi, let's go home."

　　Zhang Yingzi pursed her lips and went into the yard with Old Man Zhang.

　　After entering the house, Old Man Zhang asked, "How have you been doing in the city these days?"

　　"It's not bad." Zhang Yingzi thought about it and felt wronged, "They...they all look down on me."

　　"They think I'm a peasant girl who has never seen the world and that I'm stupid." Zhang Yingzi said aggrievedly, "If I were like them, how could I not have seen the world? Why do they look down on me?"

　　Old man Zhang opened his mouth and thought, what can I do?

　　Who let Zhang Yingzi be born in their family?

　　"Yingzi, let's not think too much in the future. Just live a good life at home as before." Old man Zhang said, "In fact, our life is not as good as others, but better than others. Although we were born in a mountain village, we have enough food and clothes."

　　Zhang Yingzi thought to herself how could they be the same?

　　She used to think it was pretty good.

　　But when I followed Li Mumu and others to the city and lived in an inn, it was very different from staying at home.

　　She couldn't imagine what kind of life people like Li Mumu usually lead.

　　Seeing Zhang Yingzi's reaction, Old Man Zhang sighed and opened the box that Li Mumu had given him.

　　Inside the box were some women's jewelry, beautiful hairpins, and silver.

　　"This..." Old Man Zhang took a deep breath, "Why did Madam Gu give so much?"

　　"Just now the girl said that this is just for you. Madam Gu and General Gu will come to thank you together, and they will bring more gifts. This..." said Old Man Zhang, "but these are already a lot."

　　Zhang Yingzi pursed her lips and looked at the full box.

　　The box is not very big, but the things inside are all real and valuable, not fake.

　　Zhang Yingzi curled her lips and said, "These are just a drop in the bucket for them. They can easily come up with these, but for us, it's a big fuss."

　　But Zhang Yingzi didn't know that this was not something Li Mumu could easily give out.

　　Although her business is big now, she is also constantly opening new stores.

　　Besides, she has not been in business for long and has not accumulated much.

　　In addition, there are many servants in the house in the capital.

　　Daily expenses are much higher than before.

　　It was not easy for Li Mumu to come up with so much money at once.

　　I had already prepared some thanks for Old Man Zhang and Zhang Yingzi, so there is no need to give them this time.

　　But in order to protect Zhang Yingzi's reputation, Li Mumu gave these.

　　In Li Mumu's opinion, just because Zhang Lao and Zhang Yingzi saved Gu Shangqing, she could not give away anything except Gu Shangqing. As for the rest of the money, Li Mumu would not hesitate to give it to them.

　　of.

　　Unexpectedly, Zhang Yingzi misunderstood that these were also very easy things for Li Mumu.

　　Old man Zhang didn't know how rich Li Mumu was, but he felt that no matter how rich the person was, what he gave was already a lot and very sincere.

　　Old man Zhang sighed, wondering what Zhang Yingzi had experienced during her trip to the city.

　　How come he seems like a different person after coming back?

　　"Anyway, they have managed to save your reputation," said Old Man Zhang. "I was worried before, but now I feel better."

　　"I saved General Gu's life, so she will naturally repay me." Zhang Yingzi said, "Besides, if General Gu dies, Madam Gu will have nothing. Compared to what she gives me now, she will get more because of me. She will definitely settle this account."

　　Old man Zhang was stunned by what Zhang Yingzi said, "Yingzi, why do you have such an idea?"

　　"When we rescued him before, we didn't think about asking for any reward. It was just that we saw General Gu lying on the roadside with serious injuries, and we couldn't bear to watch him die without saving him." Old Man Zhang said, "General Gu and Madam Gu sincerely want to repay us."

　　"We didn't spend a penny to treat General Gu's injury, and we almost delayed his recovery, and he almost died in our house." Old Man Zhang said, "General Gu and Madam Gu didn't blame us, and they still treated us as their savior in return."

　　Zhang Yingzi said impatiently: "Dad, that's not what you said. If we didn't save General Gu, he wouldn't even have the chance to recover from his injuries and would have died long ago."

　　"We are not as good as the doctor, but at least we have temporarily stabilized his injuries. Otherwise, how would there be enough time for Madam Gu to come?" Zhang Yingzi said.

　　Old man Zhang shook his head, thinking that this was not right. "Like General Zhao said, if we had gone to the government office at the beginning, there wouldn't have been so many problems later."

　　"Mrs. Gu can know General Gu's whereabouts earlier, and General Gu can receive medical treatment more promptly..."

　　Before Old Man Zhang finished speaking, Zhang Yingzi cried anxiously and angrily, "Dad, why do you always speak for that Madam Gu? You blame me too, do you think I'm wrong? During the days I was in the city, those people kept blaming me for not reporting to the government, which delayed General Gu's injury and caused his family to not know his whereabouts."
