"My husband, he's gone, and yet we're not allowed to speak about it."
At this sorrowful moment, the families of the fallen soldiers, noticing Zhang River alive and well but daring to ask them to keep it down, couldn't help but retort.
Zhang River couldn't be bothered to argue, and said loudly, "Brother Mo stated that they were men of bravery, examples for all of us, and though they have passed on, the Divine Brave Guard will forever remember them.
Wang Shi, for his meritorious service in guarding the grain, is rewarded with one thousand coins, posthumously honored with three thousand coins, three jin of meat, and ten jin of rice. The other brothers who perished protecting the grain will receive the same reward and compensation. Those injured will receive one thousand coins and five jin of rice."
After speaking, members of the Divine Brave Guard placed four thousand coins and food next to Wang Shi's widow from the mule-drawn cart.
