Ms. Wang glanced at her younger son and daughter’s pale faces and nodded, "Okay, I got it." "Sister, I will also go to town to see Brother An tomorrow." Yang Qingrui said. "Alright" On the following day, Yang Chuxia and Yang Qingrui took Land Officer Yang’s ox cart to Wangquan town together, with Yang Dayong, Land Officer’s son, driving the cart. When they arrived in town, Yang Chuxia had Yang Dayong take Yang Qingrui to the clinic first while she went to the market to buy some black fish, tofu, black fungus, and some red dates before hurrying to the clinic. As soon as she arrived at the clinic, she met the two constables outside. As it turned out, both Yang Xiao’an and Yang Qingwen had been captured, and they were scheduled to appear in court the day after at the county office. The county officer would make a decision after getting a detailed understanding of the case. Furthermore, since Yang Xiao’an had an official position, the county officer ordered the main parties involved in the case to be present. Among the main parties, in addition to Brother An, there was her. They were both victims, but Brother An was the main plaintiff, while she was both a witness and a victim. However, now that the trial was scheduled for the day after, she became worried about Brother An’s wounds. "Constables Hong and Xu, could you please ask H County’s Old Master for mercy? This patient has severe injuries, and the ride from Wangquan Town to the county seat is really quite far. If the wound is jolted and torn during the journey, he won’t be able to confront the case in court." The two constables looked at each other. They actually didn’t expect the injury to be so serious, so they came to deliver the message as soon as the steward arranged their schedule. If they had known earlier, they would have asked the steward to schedule it for later. Seeing that the patient might not be able to travel, they had just seen him earlier and found that he couldn’t move while lying in bed. Constable Xu thought for a moment and said, "In that case, we’ll go and talk to the steward first. If that doesn’t work, please come up with another solution, Miss Yang." Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia quickly said, "Thank you so much, both of you." As she spoke, she took out two hundred wen coins and carefully handed them to the two constables, "Take this for some tea on the road. I know it’s not much, but us country folks have limited finances, especially with all that’s going on now. If I ever become successful in the future, I will never forget the kindness you both showed me today." Constable Hong didn’t hesitate to accept the money, laughing heartily, "You don’t need to be so polite, young lady. Actually, this capture is just part of our job. Also, deep down, my brother and I really can’t stand such cruel people. In our countryside, folks are supposed to be simple and kindhearted. Hearing about these little thieves really makes us uncomfortable." "In any case, I still want to thank both of you!" Instead of following the common practice of bowing down for women, Yang Chuxia mimicked Jianghu’s style and saluted Hong and Xu with a boxing fist. This gesture immediately endeared Yang Chuxia to the two constables, making them feel that she was quite special. Therefore, they became even more sincere in handling this matter. After the two constables left, Yang Chuxia brought her big and small bags into the clinic, where Yang Dachuan, Yang Qingrui, and Yang Dayong were talking to Ye Zi’an. "Do you feel any better today?" Yang Chuxia put the stuff in her hands on an empty table next to her and asked as she walked over. Upon seeing Yang Chuxia enter, Ye Zi’an was clearly delighted, and his previously indifferent demeanor vanished instantly as he showed a slight smile. "I’m fine, except that I can’t move."
