The old coachman quickly shook his head upon hearing her statements. He didn't dare characterize her as a pig or a chicken. He was only making a metaphor, "Miss, you've misunderstood. I don't mean it that way. You are indeed priceless, which is why I said you cannot be priced by weight. How about we judge according to the severity of your injury, and then I pay for the corresponding medical expenses?"
He already agreed to cover the medical expenses, and the doctor assured her she would recover in a few days. Still, she insisted he pay her 100 taels. Wasn't she trying to exploit his good nature? Despite his kindness, the coachman was no fool.
He was getting a bit angry. After all, this whole situation arose because she constantly urged him to speed up. He was willing to pay for his mistake, even willing to risk losing ten taels in medical costs. But she was insistent on getting a hundred taels! Was she taking advantage of his kindness?
