Chapter 114 Chapter 114, The Cao Family (1 more)
The Song family, who were hiding in the grass and stealing meat, heard the movement from the team, and they were so frightened that they immediately gobbled up beef and chicken legs.

Anyway, this meat is absolutely not allowed to be kept, even if the stomach is burst, it must be eaten clean.

Although braised pork is not as flavorful as other cooking dishes, and this kind of cooked food that has been prepared in advance and cooled thoroughly does not have any lingering smell, but they are not willing to leave any risk, and it is safest to eat it in their stomachs.

After quickly finishing the beef and chicken legs, the stomachs and taste buds of everyone in the Song family were completely satisfied, and then they rinsed their mouths with water from the bag as Song Shaoqin said.

After confirming that there was no smell in their mouths, the group hurried back to the resting place. Mai Dong and the others even pretended to pick some herbs and went back.

"what's wrong?"

"What happened?"

Bai Shi and Xu Wanqing asked nervously.

Su Lianying raised her chin and signaled, "Here~ The Cao family isn't making trouble."

Everyone in the Song family breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that it had nothing to do with their family. They thought that their behavior of stealing food had been discovered.

"What happened to the Cao family?"

A group of people sat down one after another, looking at the noisy Cao's house in the distance, and they were in a good mood to watch the fun.

Mrs. Song sighed, "I heard that several members of the Cao family have a fever, and Mrs. Cao even fell into a coma."

"Just now Cao's second son went to the escort to ask for medicine, but was rejected. No one in the family made up his mind. Instead, they complained to each other and got into a fight. This family is also a wonderful thing."

Su Lianying shook her head with a speechless face, and she even looked down on the behavior of the Cao family.

When she was on her way in the morning, she found that all the men in Cao's family were empty-handed, not to mention helping their wives and daughters who were weak in the lower body, and they didn't even help with simple luggage. They were really selfish and cold-hearted!
Bai sighed, "Those escorts are not kind people. How could they give them medicine for nothing if they don't have any benefits?"

"It's just a poor child."

Xu Wanqing is now also a mother of a child, and the worst thing she can see is that her child suffers.

Adults can do whatever they want, but the child is still young, and the environment on the road to exile is already bad, and now he has to suffer from illness, and it will be even more difficult to suffer with those ugly adults of the Cao family.

"Who told them not to take it seriously?"

It was rare for Song Yunxi to express his opinion. In fact, along the way, he could find a lot of medicinal herbs along the way, and it was not that there was no cure at all.

It's a pity that the Cao family will only blame each other and complain, and they don't know what to do.

**
The Cao family on the other side was already in chaos.

As the oldest lady in the family, Mrs. Cao has fallen into a coma, and everyone has started talking nonsense.

Although the two brothers of the Cao family are not very good people, they still have a bit of filial piety towards the old lady Cao. Seeing that the old mother is suffering from illness, the two brothers are also worried.

But Cao Laoer had already gone to ask for an official post just now, but it was of no use.

"Brother, what do you think we should do? If this continues, my mother's body will not be able to bear it."

Cao Er had a sad face. He had no big ambitions since he was a child. He just liked to eat, drink and have fun.

"Hey~ It's really not good, we can only spend money to buy it from those officials." Cao Da is also very helpless, and now all their net worth add up to more than 300 taels.

But he didn't plan to spend this money on the road to exile, but planned to use it as the capital for his comeback after arriving in Nanman, and he was unwilling to use this money as a last resort.

But right now, he can't let him watch his old mother die, can he?
"Can I buy a few more medicines? Tianqing and Brother Xiang also have some fevers." Cao Er took advantage of the situation and made a request. He had only one son, Tianqing, and one son, Tianrong.

Tianqing has a wife and a concubine, but it is a pity that the eldest daughter-in-law is not up to the mark, and now she has given birth to a daughter, Cao Yu, who is now six years old. On the contrary, the concubine gave birth to a son, named Cao Yongxiang, who is one year younger than Cao Yu .

As for his concubine Tianrong, he also took a daughter-in-law for him a few years ago and gave birth to his son Cao Yongxing, who is now four years old.

However, their house is not in the favor of Cao Er. Whether it is Xu Shi, the concubine, or Cao Tianrong, the concubine, they are all dull and dumb and dumb.

Therefore, Cao Er didn't take them to heart at all.

Cao Tianrong on the side was very disappointed to hear that his father hadn't mentioned his family at all.

In his father's eyes, there was only the elder brother's family, as if there was no such family at all. After all, the aunt had served him wholeheartedly for so many years, no credit but hard work, right?
Now, both Auntie and Brother Xing have a high fever, but he can turn a blind eye to it, and he doesn't miss any old feelings.

Is the difference between concubine and concubine so important?

Just because the eldest brother is the eldest son, so even his concubine is more important than himself and his aunt?Because the elder brother is the eldest son, is it doomed that his brother Xing is not as good as the brother Xiang who was born in the elder brother's concubine?

At this moment, Cao Tianrong suddenly had a monstrous resentment in his heart, resenting his father's inaction, and resenting the injustice of this world.

Not long after, the Cao brothers came back with dark faces.

"How is it? Have you bought the medicine?"

Mrs. Cao's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, asked hurriedly. Her two young grandsons both had a fever, and they were really anxious.

"I got it, but only two fever-reducing pills."

Cao Da took out a paper bag with a very ugly face, he was really pissed off, those escorts are really nothing, Jimin Tang’s fever-reducing pills are usually only one tael of silver at most, but they actually set the price on the ground, A pill costs 30 taels!

Even the bandits didn't go too far with them!

After a lot of pleading and bargaining, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and bought two antipyretic pills for 50 taels of silver, which was like cutting his flesh.

A whole 50 taels of silver!

According to the wild asking prices of those escorts, I am afraid that his appetite will be even greater in the future. With his family background, he can't afford them at all.

No, he can't spend any more money!

"What? There are only two pills? That's not enough!" Cao's daughter-in-law was crying and worried.

"Give mother one first, and the rest." Cao Da began to distribute, but when it came to the other pill, he couldn't help but scan around the family, feeling a little embarrassed for a while.

Cao Er was anxious, "Brother, you promised to give me antipyretics before, and I have two children at home."

"Second Uncle, your brother Xiang is five years old, and my brother Liang is only three years old. Such a young child is burning to the point of talking nonsense, so please let my brother Liang eat."

Li Shi, the second daughter-in-law of the Cao family's eldest family, is not the one who endures a loss. When she heard that there was only one fever-reducing pill left, she immediately fought for her son.
