Chapter 114 Compensation
Jiang Jiang didn't ask Wang Qingqing whether she had deliberately made trouble before. After all, the answer was already very clear.
It is known that Wang Qingqing is the eldest daughter of the escort agency. She has a father who is partial to his son and has caused trouble, a mother who abandoned her daughter and ran away, a younger brother who may be ignorant of the world, and even the driver who was arranged for her when she was escaping is a treacherous man.
Even Jiang Jiang couldn't help but sigh that this was a start from hell.
Since what Wang Qingqing did before was to protect herself and she also gave corresponding compensation, Jiang Jiang did not hold on to it. Instead, she even admired Wang Qingqing a little.
Only those who do not give up on themselves deserve help from others.
"You want to find the Zhou family, right? Come with me."
From the fact that Wang Qingqing's first reaction after getting off the car was to walk towards Zhou's house, to the fact that she now glances towards Zhou's house inadvertently from time to time, Jiang Jiang has reason to suspect that she knows Mr. Zhou.
After all, the Zhou family’s logo was particularly conspicuous on the Zhou family’s carriage.
Seeing that Wang Qingqing seemed a little helpless and frightened at this moment, Jiang Jiang said that if she hadn't seen her crossing her arms, she would have believed it.
This action reasonably concealed what she was hiding in her arms.
Jiang Jiang saw through it but didn't say anything. Before Wang Qingqing could reply, he turned and walked towards the Zhou family.
She was willing to help Wang Qingqing once and make good friends with her, but she also didn't want to get too involved in her family affairs.
Whether she is seeking survival or revenge, it has nothing to do with me.
Wang Qingqing stared at Jiang Jiang's back, and the corners of her mouth, which had been pursed in fear, relaxed. She had no expression on her face, lowered her head silently, and followed behind Jiang Jiang.
"Ma'am, I'm really sorry for what happened before. The carriage was not targeting you and your family, but the ox cart."
After hearing Wang Qingqing's words, Jiang Jiang knew that this was her explanation. Perhaps Wang Qingqing had the idea of not hurting anyone from the beginning, and Jiang Jiang could accept this reason, but who could guarantee that nothing unexpected would happen?
So Jiang Jiang just paused and continued walking towards the Zhou family.
This was the first and last time she helped Wang Qingqing, there would be no future.
The people in the Zhou family were already very familiar with Jiang Jiang. When they saw Jiang Jiang coming, Butler Zhou greeted her warmly.
"Mrs. Jiang, what's the matter this late at night?"
There was a lot of noise in Daxi Village just now, and Butler Zhou didn't know what happened yet. When he saw Jiang Jiang coming, he wanted to find out more.
Jiang Jiang pointed at Wang Qingqing who was following behind her and whispered, "This girl probably has some connection with the Zhou family. Can I ask Butler Zhou to inform Master Zhou for me?"
Wang Qingqing raised her head with tears in her eyes.
"Butler Zhou, I wonder if you still remember me. My father, Wang Yu, is the chief escort of the Fumen Escort Agency. I have placed bids for the Zhou family several times. I have something important to discuss with Master Zhao."
Butler Zhou looked at Jiang Jiang tacitly, knowing that this matter was not something he could decide, and immediately went to find Master Zhou.
After hearing this, Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou came to see Wang Qingqing.
Zhou Wan'er also wanted to join in the fun, but was rejected by Mr. and Mrs. Zhou.
She was bored so she had to ask Jiang Jiang about what happened tonight. Coincidentally, Jiang Jiang also wanted to tell the Zhou family what he knew.
So one listened while the other spoke, which was quite interesting.
In the end, Jiang Jiang intentionally or unintentionally reminded Zhou Wan'er to be more careful and not to be sold out and still have to count the money for others.
Zhou Wan'er grew up in love and was loved by her parents. She can be said to be a complete naive girl.
Wang Qingqing suffered a family change and was forced to grow up. She couldn't survive without a little bit of cunning.
Harmfulness is not allowed, and defensiveness is indispensable.
Seeing Zhou Wan'er nodded seriously, Jiang Jiang felt relieved.
She had already said and done everything she should have said and done. As for the rest, Jiang Jiang couldn't control it.
She didn't wait for Mr. Zhou and Madam Zhou to come out. She said hello to Zhou Wan'er and Butler Zhou and left.
Wang Qingqing will definitely take out chips that will impress Mr. and Mrs. Zhou in order to gain the protection of the Zhou family, but she is not in a position to get involved in the details.
The next morning, Jiang Jiang saw Wang Qingqing appear in the Zhou family's motorcade. She had changed into new clothes and was riding in the same carriage with Zhou Wan'er. The maids and guards around her were also very respectful to her. It must be that Master Zhou had informed her in advance.
Before the Zhou family set off, Butler Zhou came over with a bucket of water and two strips of bacon, saying they were compensation for Jiang Jiang's family.
Jiang Jiang naturally wouldn't be polite. She didn't want to have any more disputes with Wang Qingqing, so she accepted the apology as a matter of course.
The bucket of water didn't attract much attention, after all, everyone had water to drink.
But the two pieces of bacon did attract a lot of people's attention. Some people even lamented the good luck of Jiang Jiang's family. It was just that the water bucket in their home was knocked over and the straw mat was crushed, but they had to pay so much compensation.
Many people were still sighing in their hearts, wondering why they were not the ones who were hit.
Facing everyone's scorching gazes, Jiang Jiang felt a little uncomfortable.
Even Li Chunhua stared at the bacon and kept swallowing her saliva, not to mention others.
Jiang Jiang's family is quite prestigious in the village and has made great contributions. No one would be so foolish as to ask her to contribute the bacon to the village.
But everyone was greedy, especially some families who were originally poor. Except for the banquet that the Zhou family hosted for Daxi Village, they had not eaten meat for almost half a year.
I can't eat this, but I guess you won't say anything after just a few glances at it.
Jiang Jiang put the bacon away. This time she didn’t plan to share one with the villagers like she did when she caught a rabbit last time.
If she shares out every good thing she has at home, everyone will get used to it over time.
They will be grateful once or twice, but after too many times they will take it for granted. If she doesn’t give anything in the future, they will feel resentful towards her.
"This bacon can be stored for a long time. If we go to Jiangzhou in the future, I can exchange it for some money. I have several children at home who need to go to school and spend money everywhere. How can I bear to eat it?"
When the people in Daxi Village heard this, they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Before, rabbits were alive and had to be either fed with food or killed immediately for meat.
This bacon has been smoked and will not go bad no matter how long it is stored. If they were in their shoes, they would not be willing to eat it.
After this, although the four brothers in the family went to Mr. Zhou for lessons every day, the Jiang Jiang family had very few interactions with Wang Qingqing.
Wang Qingqing deliberately avoided Jiang Jiang, who seemed to see through her. Jiang Jiang was also happy not to have to deal with Wang Qingqing, whose background was complicated. The two sides kept to themselves and lived in peace.
After walking for another two days, they arrived at a deserted post station, where they stopped to rest.
