Traveling to ancient times with a sign-in system

Chapter 107 Each family cuts firewood and burns it in their own room!
After all this trouble, it’s lucky that Mr. Gu is still alive!
But fortunately, I managed to finish most of the medicine, so it wasn't in vain.

Gu Tang was amazed and felt unsatisfied.

Putting down the empty bowl, Gu Lianshan took the wooden board and went to pry open Feng's mouth again. He also took the time to instruct Gu Tang: "Wait for dad to insert the wooden board into your nipple, then you can pour the medicine in!"

"Okay!" Gu Tang cleared his throat, eager to try.

"Fill!"

Following her father's order, Gu Tang poured the medicine into Feng's mouth.

Soon, Feng also choked.

Afterwards, he started coughing like Old Man Gu, with deafening coughing. At the end, he was short of breath and exhausted, with a flushed face and ears, as if he was going to die in the next moment.

The father and daughter hid aside and watched, waiting for the person to finish coughing before going forward to continue pouring.

After the medicine was finished, Gu Tang silently calculated that Feng had not even eaten half a bowl of medicine.

But her father didn't say anything, only said: "Your eldest brother said earlier that Doctor Gu also instructed us to wait until midnight to feed him another bowl."

Okay, then let’s wait until midnight to feed it.

Gu Tang put down the empty bowl, a trace of regret flashed across her eyes. She hadn't had enough to drink yet.

"Go out and play. This room smells of medicine. Your grandparents are sick, and you're not feeling well either. Don't let yourself get sick."

Gu Lianshan waved at Gu Tang and told her to go out quickly.

There was more than just the smell of medicine in the room. The small room was also filled with the constant smell of urine.

Gu Tang glanced behind the door and saw a urine bucket there!
It’s understandable to put a urine bucket in the room at night because you’re afraid of the cold and don’t want to go to the toilet. But why is there a urine bucket in the room in broad daylight?

Feng Shi even scolded Gu Laian, saying that the room was as filthy as a pigsty. Now I see that her own room is in the same condition.

Gu Tang covered his nose and quickly left the house.

……

By the evening, the two elders of the Gu family were still asleep, and their complexions did not look any better. After dinner, Gu Lianshan planned to sleep on the floor in Feng's house tonight. No matter what, he would at least take care of them for the whole night.

In such weather, sleeping on the floor was extremely cold, so Gu Tang simply moved the two stoves used for boiling medicine at home to Feng's house.

It was also because of these two stoves that Gu Tang caught Gu Qing and scolded him again.

When it was dark, Gu Liansheng in the east wing woke up and said that he woke up because of hunger. As soon as he woke up, he wanted to eat and drink.

Half of the Gu family's food supply was in Feng's house, and the other half was in the east wing. Both places were locked with big locks, and Feng had all the keys in her hands.

Every day when cooking at home, we would first ask Feng for food rations and cook as much as she gave us.

Now that Feng is ill, the key falls into Gu Tang's hands.

Gu Tang did not bother the eldest family with food rations. There was no meat, but they still had enough porridge to fill their stomachs.

But after dinner, Gu Liansheng started to make trouble, saying that it was all Gu Tang's fault that the two elders of the Gu family were so seriously ill.

Gu Tang didn't give in either. She called her father to go to the east wing and insisted on pulling Gu Liansheng up and asking him to go to the main hall to keep watch! As the eldest son of the family, he had been supported by a lot of money to study for decades. Now that the two elders are seriously ill, unless you die, otherwise, even if you are unconscious, you have to keep watch!

These words frightened Gu Liansheng so much that his face turned pale.

He was a man who valued his life very much and knew his own body very well. If he really had to stay up all night, he would probably not be able to make it to midnight.

During the argument between the two sides, Gu Liansheng started crying again, saying that he felt dizzy and had a headache, and asked Gu Qing to boil some medicine, saying that he had to take the medicine, and if he didn't take the medicine, he might not be able to survive.

After Gu Laian's previous provocation, Gu Qing saw some things clearly. Now her mother Wei's whereabouts are unknown, and only her father Gu Liansheng is left in the house.

Although her father is useless and can't do anything, as long as her father gets better, their eldest wife will still be the head of the family.

Those bastards from the second house wouldn't bully her openly!
Perhaps he had figured this out, for when he heard Gu Liansheng yelling for medicine, Gu Qing gritted his teeth, took out his own private money, and went to Doctor Gu's house to get a dozen packets of medicine.

As soon as she got the medicine back, she hurriedly cleaned the medicine jar and prepared to boil medicine for her father.

However, all the stoves used for boiling medicine at home were moved into the main room by Gu Tang. There was still one left in the kitchen, but that stove was in tatters and not very easy to use.

Gu Qing had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the main room to move out a stove.

Gu Lianshan didn't say anything. As for Gu Tang, she wanted to come back, but was stopped by her father, who said that the stove had to be moved back. If anything went wrong in the first house, Gu Tang would definitely be blamed.

After hearing this, Gu Tang endured it and thought that she would move the stove back after Gu Qing finished boiling the medicine.

Unexpectedly, after Gu Qing finished boiling the medicine, he moved the stove directly into the east wing and also brought a lot of firewood from the backyard into the house.

The firewood she was carrying was all chopped by Gu Ping'an and was left for Gu Tang to use in the stove at night.

Although they brought some charcoal back this time, charcoal was not cheap, so they still had to use the firewood first.

Gu Qing moved the stove into the east wing silently, which made Gu Tang frown. If Gu Lianshan had not been persuading him, he would have gone over and scolded him.

When he saw Gu Qing go to the backyard and carry the firewood chopped by Gu Ping'an into the east wing, Gu Lianshan could no longer persuade her.

Shaking off her father's hand, Gu Tang rushed into the east wing angrily, pointed at Gu Qing's nose and started scolding her, making her cry.

After cursing, Gu Tang threw all the firewood that Gu Qing brought in into the yard, and then carried the stove back to the main room.

Not long after, she came out of the main hall again, stood in the east wing corridor, and continued to scold the family in the eldest house: "A house full of lazy people! I told you a few days ago that the firewood in the backyard was chopped by my father and brother, and you are not allowed to use it anymore!
I've been too busy these days to bother with you, but you've become even more arrogant and shameless! I'm going to say it again today! Starting tomorrow! Each family must chop their own firewood! If you don't chop it? Then you'll be freezing and starving!

If anyone dares to use a single piece of firewood from our second room again, I will take advantage of your sleep and carry all the firewood from the backyard to your east room in the middle of the night and burn you all to ashes in one go!"

The east wing instantly became quiet, and Gu Qing was so scared that she didn't dare to cry anymore.

Gu Tang spat on the ground, went back to the house angrily, got a lock, and locked the door of the woodshed in the backyard.

After this commotion, the firewood thrown out by Gu Tang was lying in the yard, and no one from the east wing dared to come out to pick it up.

Even Gu Mei and Gu Laian were frightened. Tonight, neither of them dared to go to the backyard to fetch firewood.

It doesn't matter to Gu Laian. Gu Ping'an will sleep in the same room with him tonight. The firewood was brought in early, enough to burn for the whole night.

Gu Mei was a bit miserable. She slept alone, wrapped in bedding and clothes, and endured the whole night, almost freezing to death!
The next day, Gu Tang got up early and the first thing he did was to go to the backyard.

There will be another chapter later
