Chapter 952 One family should be in one piece
Sun Dahai turned pale upon hearing this.
He knows, of course he knows!
In this situation, the most sensible thing to do is to abandon the child.
In this way, the rest of the family can be protected.
However, he and his wife only have one child, Xiaobao.
His wife and mother doted on the child as if he were their own eyes.
Asking them to throw the child out alone is no different from killing the child outright.
Even in peaceful times, a child under five years old cannot survive alone outside.
Moreover, given the current situation.
Sun Dahai was caught in a painful dilemma.
In fact, in this day and age, giving up a child is not a difficult choice for many people.
After all, these days raising children is about having a bunch of them and seeing how many survive.
Those who don't survive are simply unlucky!
Families like Sun Laohai's, who dote on their children as much, are rare.
Bai Song had known Sun Laohai's family for so long that he knew a bit about their personalities.
He glanced at the location of Steward Zhou's camp and whispered to Sun Dahai:
"It's already dark, and who knows when they might send someone over to inspect."
You should make a decision about this as soon as possible.
I will send someone over in fifteen minutes.
If a decision hasn't been made by then, I'll have no choice but to kick them out!
After saying that, he left without paying any attention to Sun Dahai and his family behind him.
Before leaving, he moved all the soldiers who were standing a meter away from Sun Dahai's house to other locations.
Sun Dahai and his family have been temporarily quarantined.
However, Sun Dahai and his family were not paying attention to any of this at the moment.
Sun Laohai, who was isolated separately in another location, was also called back.
His face darkened when he learned of this.
"Xiao Bao caught a cold, why didn't you tell me sooner!"
Doctor Zhuang should still have medicine for treating colds.
If I had taken medicine earlier, I might not have coughed at all!
Sun Dahai scratched his head in anguish, his face full of regret.
"It's all my fault. I was worried that if people found out about this, Xiaobao would be kicked out on the spot."
I thought I'd try some traditional remedies first, maybe they'd work.
It's all my fault, it's all my fault!
Beside her, Sun Dahai's wife held her child, tears streaming down her face.
She hugged the child, her voice hoarse.
"Father, Mother, husband, I'm staying here with Xiaobao!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Dahai became anxious.
"How can this be? You're a woman with a child, how are you going to survive?"
You go to town with your parents and Erhe, Xiaobao and I will stay behind!
When Sun Laohai's wife heard what her son said, she also insisted on staying to take care of the child.
The family lowered their voices, vying to stay.
Sun Xiaobao didn't know what had happened, but he was sensitive to the unusual emotions.
He nestled in his mother's arms and said in a childish voice:
"Mommy, don't cry. Grandpa and Grandma, don't cry either. If you cry, you're not a good baby!"
Upon hearing the child's innocent voice, several people couldn't help but burst into tears.
Dahai's wife held her son, her heart aching for him.
"Little Bao, don't be afraid, Mommy will always be with you!"
The family argued for a long time, but they still couldn't come up with a solution when Bai Song arrived.
Sun Dahai wanted to stay with his wife and children, but Sun Laohai and his wife couldn't bear to part with them and also wanted to stay.
Sun Erhe refused to leave on his own, and in the end, the whole family decided to stay.
Upon seeing this scene, Bai Song sighed softly.
"Oh, why bother!"
However, there's no way to persuade someone about something like this.
As the saying goes, you don't know how much it hurts until you've been hit on the head.
He looked at the family in front of him who were packing their things to leave and called out to them.
"Wait a minute!"
As he spoke, he quietly instructed someone to go back and retrieve their belongings.
Soon, Yan Xu came over with a bulging purse in his hand.
Bai Song took the purse and tossed it to Sun Dahai in front of him.
"Keep this money. If Xiaobao gets better, then find another opportunity to contact Manager Zhou."
After we enter the city, we should rest at an inn for two days.
If you get in, then look for us at the inn.
Sun Dahai, clutching the heavy purse, knelt down and kowtowed three times.
Bai Song watched the family leave and stopped a short distance away.
He sighed and continued wandering around the camp.
Given the current situation, it's better for him to find out the problematic person in advance than for Steward Zhou to discover it.
Soon, Lu Qingqing and Old Man Zhuang also learned about Sun Xiaobao's situation.
Everyone liked this sensible little child very much.
Old Zhuang immediately went to his medicine chest to look for medicine packets for treating colds, and then picked through the packets.
When giving medicine to children, we should always be more careful than when giving it to adults.
Lu Qingqing wasn't idle either. She went to the carriage, took out a bundle, and put several water bags filled with spatial water inside.
Immediately afterwards, another bulging money bag was placed there.
Knowing that Sun Xiaobao loves sweets, I added a bag of candy and a few bags of dried meat.
After thinking for a moment, he retrieved three large knives that he had previously seized from his spatial storage.
She remembered that Sun Laohai's family now only had one large knife, and the other two were wood-chopping knives.
Now they have to go on their own, and without sharp weapons, it's definitely not going to work.
After packing, the bundle was packed full.
When she came out, Old Man Zhuang was also going over, so she followed him.
Old Zhuang saw that she was also carrying a bundle and couldn't help but sigh.
"What a wonderful child Xiaobao is, how did he have to be born at this time?"
The two quickly arrived at the place where Sun Laohai's family had stopped.
Before they could even get close, Sun Laohai and his two sons stood up warily, knives in hand.
Lu Qingqing quickly spoke up, "Uncle Hai, it's us!"
Upon hearing Lu Qingqing's voice, the three of them immediately relaxed.
Old Sun stepped forward.
"Young Master Lu, what brings you here?"
Lu Qingqing placed the bundle on the ground.
"We heard that Xiaobao caught a cold, so we came to bring him some things."
Old Zhuang chimed in from the side.
"I've prepared some medicine for Xiaobao to treat his cold; you can brew it for him in a bit."
"Drink it, sweat it out, and maybe it'll help!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Dahai felt a lump in his throat.
The large man suddenly knelt on the ground with a thud, his voice trembling with sobs.
"Thank you, Brother Lu, Grandpa Zhuang, thank you!"
Old Zhuang couldn't bear to see this scene, and his nose started to sting with tears.
"Alright, alright, you two hurry up and brew the medicine for the child!"
"The sooner you take your medicine, the sooner you'll get better!"
Sun Dahai and the others quickly agreed.
Lu Qingqing and Old Man Zhuang didn't linger. After putting down their things, they quickly returned to the camp.
After seeing them leave, Sun Dahai and his companions went forward and retrieved the two bundles.
Sun Erhe stepped forward and took the bundles, only to find that both bundles were heavy.
Because they were alone and afraid of attracting envy, they dared not light a fire.
Sun Dahai and Sun Erhe fumbled to open the bundle.
When they touched the contents inside, both brothers couldn't help but wipe away tears.
Sun Laohai sensed something was wrong and asked:
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Sun Erhe sniffed, his voice trembling with tears:
"Brother Lu and Grandpa Zhuang each gave a bag of silver, and Uncle Zhuang also gave some medicine and dry food."
The Lu brothers gave us several water pouches, as well as candy and dried meat that Xiao Bao likes.
Sun Laohai's voice trembled after hearing this.
"Young Master Lu and Uncle Zhuang are both good people. Our whole family should remember their kindness!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Dahai's wife, holding their baby, whispered:
"When Xiao Bao grows up, remember to be filial to your Uncle Lu and Grandpa Zhuang, okay?"
Xiao Bao nodded his little head, "I've grown up. I'll not only be filial to Uncle Lu and Grandpa Zhuang, but also to my parents, grandparents, and uncle!"
