Chapter 584: Chapter 588 Unprecedented Treatment_1
"Is that true?"
"Of course, it’s true. I’ve seen people waiting there at the head of the village, collecting prey stolen by the eagles."
"What kind of people are they! Truly shameless, I really hope the Imperial sends someone to deal with them quickly."
"It’s not that easy. Those beasts are terribly fierce, and they especially peck at people’s eyes. The people sent by the Imperial were all driven away!"
Remembering how the army fled in all directions during the past few encounters, and how Tan Zhenghong survived after hunting an eagle, everyone’s gaze towards him heated up even more.
Tan Zhenghong really wanted to tell them that his wife was the main force in killing the eagles, but he thought better of it and swallowed his words.
If they knew the truth, they would surely say his wife was bad luck, hard of fate, and the like.
Ah, he really wished that here, too, could achieve gender equality, as his wife had mentioned.
"Zheng Hong, you’re incredible! Maybe the Imperial will even bestow a reward on you!"
"I’ll talk to the village head later. Zheng Hong is sure to receive a commendation this time; he even knows the County Magistrate, maybe he could become a Master Guang!"
As more and more onlookers gathered, Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong could only stop in the end.
Qiao Duo’er said bashfully, "My husband Zheng Hong has been injured, I must rush home to apply medicine and stop the bleeding."
Only then did the villagers notice Tan Zhenghong’s pale complexion, and they couldn’t help but gasp when they saw the wound on his back.
The wound was scratched, with stark blood marks, likely with flesh and skin torn together.
It looked so painful that they couldn’t delay the couple any longer.
"Everyone, please make way, I’ll carry Brother Hong back."
Tan Zhenghong promptly refused: "I’m fine, I can walk back on my own."
"Why be stubborn when you’re like this? Da Baoer, quickly take Zheng Hong back, I’ll go call Doctor Wu."
The villagers hurriedly cleared a path, and the eagle that Qiao Duo’er was dragging was taken over by someone else.
This time, everyone was full of goodwill, a treatment that had never before happened in Big Willow Village.
Having brought Tan Zhenghong to the yard, Feng Dabao put him down.
Zheng Hong said gratefully, "I’ve only suffered a minor flesh wound, it will heal in a few days, don’t worry. Once my wife makes jerky out of the eagle, we’ll share it with everyone."
This was a custom in the village; whenever a family had a joyous event, some of that happiness was shared with others.
"You’ve lost so much blood, save it to replenish yourself."
"Right, you’re our village hero, we couldn’t possibly take your things!"
"We can’t accept your jerky, folks, we don’t know medical treatment, let’s quickly go, and let Zheng Hong rest properly!"
Everyone answered in agreement and swiftly departed.
Qiao Duo’er helped Tan Zheng Hong back to the room and took advantage while Uncle Wu was dressing Zheng Hong’s wound to heat up a pot of water in the kitchen.
They were both dirtied by the eagle and needed a good wash.
She lit the firewood and stuffed more in before heading back to the room.
By then, Wu Youcai had already dressed Zheng Hong’s wound: "Change the dressing once a day, I left enough medicine for two people, don’t let the wound get wet, and I won’t say more about other precautions."
Since Tan Zheng Hong hadn’t concealed anything earlier, Wu Youcai had left an extra bottle of medicine.
"Thank you, Uncle Wu, wait a moment, I will get you the money for the medicine."
Wu Youcai quickly shook his head: "I can’t take this money, otherwise I’d be scolded to death. I have to go now!"
After saying this, he hurriedly left, knowing that Tan Zheng Hong and Qiao Duo were generous, but this time they had eliminated a menace for the people, and he couldn’t accept their money.
