"Big brother, why are you in such a hurry, what’s wrong?" Kai Yuan yawned as he lifted the curtain to come out, then quickly closed it.

"An Tong has a fever, hurry up and get me some medicine." Gu Kaiping assumed his request was reasonable, even extending his hand.

Kai Yuan looked at him, puzzled, "Big brother, are you burned out too?

If I had medicine, I would’ve already given it to mother. That antiseptic medicine before was something I begged Mr. Liu for.

Besides, how could An Tong have a fever for no reason? Didn’t you take good care of her?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"How can you not have medicine? Didn’t Ms. Bai prepare any? I don’t need wound medicine, but fever medicine."

Kai Yuan, "The medicine at the post station is expensive. You know that, we couldn’t bear to buy it with just the little money we have.

How about you ask other families, big brother."

Gu Kaiping stared at Kai Yuan, who wasn’t fazed and stared back.

Gu Kaiping turned and left, Kai Yuan was probably not lying.

But medicine from others isn’t easy to get, it requires a great price.

Kai Yuan sneered as he watched Gu Kaiping’s back leaving, "Really treating me like a treasure chest."

Bai Suihe opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling of the carriage, the outside sounds reached her ears. She felt sympathy for Kai Yuan for three seconds, never benefiting from good things while troubles always seemed to find him first.

"Miss, should you get up?" Chunxiang woke up at that moment, they had stayed up with the young lady all night. Fortunately, the carriage was big enough for four people, and the two maids slept soundly in the corner.

"Get up then," once awake, it’s hard to fall back asleep; Bai Suihe felt the matter wouldn’t just disappear.

Sure enough, Gu Kaiping had asked around everyone except the escort.

Asking why he hadn’t approached the escort, it’s because he knew that what he had wouldn’t be easy to acquire.

"Didn’t find any medicine?" Liu Yun jumped off the ox cart, seeing Gu Kaiping return dejectedly, her face changed.

"Everyone says no," Gu Kaiping saw several families with evasive eyes, he knew they were unwilling, reluctant to part with their medicine.

Only one family was willing, but at a price too high. He hesitated but couldn’t speak about it.

"Then what should we do? I can’t wake Tong Er, if the fever keeps going, it will become serious."

"Father, Tong Er is your granddaughter, please save her." As a mother, Liu Yun was anxious and disregarded her fear of Gu Baijiang, placing all hope on him.

"Kaiping, have you asked the escort? They regularly pack some medicine when traveling."

Gu Kaiping shook his head, "Their medicine isn’t easy to get, I haven’t approached them yet."

Gu Baijiang sighed and took out a silver ingot from his pocket, handing it directly to him, "Go ask."

The Gu Family cannot face another mishap, especially with Gu Antong, the only granddaughter, she’s a crucial piece if the plan succeeds.

Gu Kaiping holding the silver, contemplating, was pushed forward by Liu Yun, "Hurry up."

"Why are you rushing? I’m thinking about how to speak to them, suddenly seeking them out without prior relationship..."

"Then go find Kai Yuan. Isn’t he pals with the Liu guy? Maybe you won’t even need to spend silver." Liu Yun suddenly had a brilliant moment, finding a solution quickly.

Gu Kaiping ran out with her push, "Then take care of the child, I’m going."

Seeing Gu Kaiping appear again, Kai Yuan wasn’t surprised.

"Kai Yuan, hurry up and come with me to find Mr. Liu, beg him for medicine for Tong Er."

Gu Kaiping rushed up, grabbing Kai Yuan’s arm trying to drag him out, but Kai Yuan pushed him away, "Big brother, what are you saying?

What status do we hold now? Will they even give us much consideration?

Or do you think the escort will do charity, giving you medicine for free?"

"Don’t you have a relationship with them?"

"Father has many old ties, you have colleagues, friends, did anyone send help during our family’s troubled times?

Big brother, are you that gullible from being an official? Seeking favor at this time?"

"I just see you usually have interactions with him..."

Kai Yuan, "Big brother really holds me in high regard, every request comes with a price.

Big brother, have you prepared? If ready, I can help go once, it’s not impossible."

Gu Kaiping, "..."

"Big brother, aren’t you in a hurry, or is my niece’s fever gone?"

"No," thinking of Gu Antong not yet awake, Kai Yuan gritted his teeth and took out the silver ingot Gu Baijiang gave him, "I don’t know if it needs so much silver."

Kai Yuan, "Does big brother think he can negotiate?"

Seeing Kai Yuan prepared to walk away, Gu Kaiping had to put the silver into his hand, "Hurry and buy medicine."

Kai Yuan dragged him forward, "Big brother, you should come with me, or else I won’t want the blame later."

"How could it be? We are family..."

Kai Yuan ignored him and directly approached Liu Pingkang’s carriage.

Liu Pingkang was sitting on the shaft, casually flicking the whip.

Seeing brothers Kai Yuan approach, he raised his eyebrow, knowing the Gu Family had matters again.

The whole group was restless because of them, just not sure about this time’s reason?

"Mr. Liu," Kai Yuan respectfully saluted, "Forgive us for the disturbance again.

The situation is..."

Gu Kaiping quietly followed Kai Yuan, starting to believe in his earlier words; the so-called relationship truly had much to be desired.

Though Liu Pingkang was disdainful of Gu Kaiping, he didn’t trouble them, finding fever medicine in the carriage and threw it to Kai Yuan, "We packed this medicine, but whether it works is unknown."

Kai Yuan hurriedly offered the silver ingot with both hands, "Whether it works depends on the child’s fate, thank you for your kindness, Mr. Liu."

Liu Pingkang laughed heartily, "Glad you know, quickly take care of the person. I don’t want another mark on my ledger."

Gu Kaiping clenched his palm, feeling the curse on his daughter.

Kai Yuan stuffed the medicine into Gu Kaiping’s hand, "Big brother, hurry back, An Tong needs saving."

Previously so urgent, now distracted, Kai Yuan pushed him.

Gu Kaiping turned with the medicine, leaving Kai Yuan looking apologetically at Liu Pingkang, "My brother was anxious and forgot his manners."

Liu Pingkang smiled meaningfully, "Your brother indeed has the virtues taught well by Mr. Gu, like father, like son."

Kai Yuan, "..." Was this a compliment or a compliment?
