Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space

Chapter 868: Chapter 868: Taking Action to Save Lives

Xinyan began to examine the tractor driver’s arm. Fortunately, it was not a comminuted fracture. She quickly set the arm back in place and shouted to the people nearby, "Find two straight sticks."

Everyone heard her and dispersed, heading towards nearby trees, thinking to break off some branches.

At this moment, someone asked, "There was an old table on the truck, can we use the table legs?"

Xinyan replied, "Yes, try to make it as light and thin as possible. I’ll use it to help stabilize his arm."

The table was also found at the bottom of the slope, conveniently disassembled. They brought the table legs over, and the old man tore strips of cloth from his clothing: "I’ll fix his arm first, and you all take him to the health clinic for the doctor to check again."

After that, they used the same method to treat the person with the broken leg.

By this time, the road had been cleared, and everyone helped carry the seriously injured people onto the vehicle. Gu Yingying and the car driver went along as well.

Uncle Zhang continued to help coordinate, and once the small truck returned, they rushed towards the city.

During this time, some people came to try and make connections with Jiang Peiqin, wanting to ride back with them, saying they didn’t want to sit in the small truck anymore. However, Jiang Peiqin directly refused. After all, with so many classmates, taking one and not the other would not end well, so she simply didn’t agree to anyone’s request.

This delay meant that by the time they were near the city, it was already dark.

After such an incident, even if Xinyan and Jiang Peiqin couldn’t stand Gu Yingying, they didn’t make any sarcastic comments.

On the other side, when Gu Yingying arrived at the village health clinic, after the doctor’s examination, it was indeed as Xinyan had said.

The doctor even praised the person who initially treated the injury for their good medical skills. Although Gu Yingying didn’t want to admit it, she had to thank Xinyan in her heart. If it weren’t for her proper handling, it could have turned into a much bigger problem.

Despite being reluctant, she still had someone find a place to call Gu Hongrui and gave him a brief rundown of the situation.

Gu Hongrui was furious and wanted to scold someone, but since there were others in the office at the time, he had to suppress his anger with all his might.

After hanging up, he cleared the people from his office, then hurriedly rushed over.

When he saw Gu Yingying with her pale face from fright, the words he was about to use to reprimand her were swallowed back: "Are you hurt?"

Gu Yingying shook her head, "I hit my head and shoulder, but the doctor has already examined and medicated them."

Gu Hongrui turned to the driver, who looked guilty, and asked, "What exactly happened?"

The driver felt it awkward to speak ill of the boss’s daughter, but this was no small matter, so he recounted what happened without leaving out any details: "It was indeed my misjudgment and mishandling that caused today’s incident. I accept the punishment."

There was no way around it; he had to say it like that.

Gu Hongrui glared at his troublesome daughter and went into the health clinic first.

The villagers were simple and had no intention of extorting money.

Gu Hongrui also realized that if this wasn’t handled appropriately and his cousin found out, there would be explanations to make.

After all, the vehicle was sent out for personal use under his orders.

But the vehicle repair and compensation costs weren’t a small amount, causing him some worry.

After asking the driver, he learned the car didn’t have a direct collision but the front side needed major repairs, especially since the tractor was a piece of metal.

He felt some lingering fear; if it weren’t for the quick reactions of both drivers, the consequences could have been unimaginable.
