"Snowflake, Xiaomeng naturally has her own matters to deal with when she enters the city. Let's not waste her time. Mother will choose two sets for you." Who would want to be with such an unlucky person?

Only Snowflake was stupid enough to step forward if she could stay away from them.

"Xiaomeng, I'll accompany you to the pharmacy later. You're just a girl, I'm afraid you're not safe." Tian Ersheng naturally knew that Xuehua's mother didn't like Xiaomeng being with Snowflake. As the big brother next door, he had no objections towards Xiaomeng. Furthermore, Uncle Fa usually took care of their family, but he never charged them for money.

"Then, thank you, Elder Brother Ersheng." Xiaomeng smiled faintly.

It was his first time entering the city as the original owner. It was much more convenient to do things with someone by his side.

Tian Ersheng smiled honestly: "We're neighbors, no need to be so polite. Your dad and mom also helped my family a lot."

When Xuehua's mother heard this, she fell silent.

It was possible for the Tian Clan to survive.

In the village, anyone with a headache would go to his house to get a few sets of medicine, and Tian Youfeng rarely received their silver.

However, the situation today was completely different than before. Tian YouFa had been sentenced to death and his wife had been sent to prison. His wife was also lying unconscious on the bed and his only daughter had been annulled.

If this series of events wasn't bad luck, then what was it?

She also wanted to help, but her ability was limited. Her family was poor to begin with, her daughter hadn't even gotten married, her son hadn't even gotten married yet.

Tian Xiaomeng smiled but did not reply.

There were more households in Upper Tian Village, about thirty or so households. The number of residents in Lower Tian Village was smaller, so there were less than ten households on the left and right.

His family came from the Upper Tian Village, so they didn't have any brothers or anything like that. Furthermore, he didn't even have the chance to get close to the neighbors.

When they reached the county town, Snowflake reluctantly parted ways with Xiaomeng and told Xiaomeng to wait for them at the city gate in the afternoon. Xiaomeng acknowledged and looked around the city.

This county was named Jiangyin County, and it returned to their homes with Jiangxia State. It was located not too far away from the capital city, and it was a prefecture city.

Let's put it this way, they were neighbors with the capital.

It could also be said to be a place under the feet of the Son of Heaven, but not under his control.

"Elder Brother Ersheng, let's go to the infirmary first. I want to help my parents take the medicine back." Tian Xiaomeng sat on the oxcart and said to Wu Tie, who was seated in front of her.

"The largest infirmary here is the Righteous Medical Center. I heard that someone from the palace opened it here. It's very popular here." Tian Ersheng usually went to the county city quite a bit, so he was quite clear about what had happened there.

"This place is not that close to the capital. It should be far away, so it shouldn't be strange even if people from the palace open it." No matter who was behind him, as long as it was a matter of conscience, no one would say anything.

"That's true. It's right up ahead. You can go in later to catch some medicine, I'll go to the rice shop next door to get some oil and go back." Tian Ersheng pointed at the righteous hospital in front of them.

"Alright, I'll go in myself." Tian Fu had given her a prescription. She just needed to have the medicine taken according to the quantity.

"Alright, then be careful." Tian Ersheng nodded.

Xiaomeng brought the prescription into the infirmary.

At the moment, the infirmary was conducting a consultation. There were many elderly, women, and children who were queuing up.

The person sitting inside was a young doctor. He very seriously looked over everyone and then wrote down a prescription to get their medicine.

Tian Xiaomeng walked in and placed the prescription on the counter. "Waiter, help me catch some medicine."

The waiter raised his eyebrows and looked at the prescription before returning it to Tian Xiaomeng. With an apologetic expression, he said, "My apologies, young lady. The medicinal ingredients you had on it are all gone. Can you come back in a day?"

Gone.

What does that mean?

It meant that the infirmary was just a decoration.

Asking her to come tomorrow, if the county really was her home, she would come as she pleased.

Tian Xiaomeng took a deep breath and said in a calm tone, "Look at it again. This is just an ordinary medicinal ingredient. Really?" In her subconscious, Tian Youfeng was just a doctor in the countryside. The medicinal herbs that he could produce were definitely of the common type, and there was no way any of them could be valuable. Even if there was, when she came, Tian Youfeng would probably treat her with special treatment. After all, she only had a few taels of silver on her body.

"Miss, look carefully, it says snake gall, and it's fresh snake gall. No one has sent snake gall here yet, so we might have to wait for a day. Maybe you can go to another house and ask someone else." The waiter took a look. These herbs were indeed common, but these fresh ones usually had to be collected from the bottom. A few had just been collected, but with so many people today, they were sold out in the blink of an eye.

Nani?

Tian Xiaomeng was stupefied.

After all this time, one of the things his father did was to act like a snake.

She picked up the prescription and looked at it. It really was Snake Bile.

Just as he was about to leave and take a look, a man rushed in urgently with a cloth bag in his hand. "Waiter, waiter, hurry, I just caught it from the fields, it's as thick as a person's wrist. Prepare the tools, I need to gather my courage."

"Alright, alright, I'll go now." The waiter immediately entered the room.

The man also rushed in like a gust of wind.

"Isn't that Young Master Su?" A familiar person exclaimed.

"Yeah, it's Young Master Su. He caught a snake again today. He really is an expert at catching snakes." Someone laughed.

"Haha, what kind of background does this Young Master Su have? He has no parents, but he lives quite carefree and unrestrained."

"Who knows, maybe some rich family sent them here to be raised."

"Don't say it, it's possible." Many people nodded.

They didn't know whether he was a son of a rich family or not. They only knew that Young Master Su had his own small yard and his own field. When he had nothing to do, he would hire people to help him farm the plants.

Of course, they spent most of their time playing in the fields.

He had caught another snake today.

I think I saw it when I was playing in the fields.

Seeing that Tian Xiaomeng had not left, the waiter came over with an idea. "Lady, if you're not in a hurry, wait at the side for a while. I'll sell you the snake gall when I get it."

"Sure, can I go in and take a look?" She had done this kind of thing before as well. Now that she saw someone do it, she felt an itch in her heart.

"Miss, if you're not afraid of such a scene, you can go in and take a look." Seeing this little girl's rosy hair and white face, she wasn't that old, so she wasn't afraid. Not only was she not afraid of the snake, she still wanted to go in and take a look.

If it was a little girl at the side, she would have already been scared to the point of cowering to the side. Who would still dare to go in and take a look?

Tian Xiaomeng acted as if she didn't see the waiter's surprised expression and went into the backyard as well.

In the backyard, a cloth bag was placed on the ground.

The bag was moving on the ground. Step by step, it kept moving.

Xiaomeng narrowed her eyes and looked at the figure inside the bag. She sighed in her heart, "This snake is indeed quite big."

The waiter stayed behind and didn't dare to move forward: "Young Master Su, it's better if you do it yourself. This snake looks so ferocious, I don't dare to go up."

"You're useless. Don't you guys have that powder? Can't you just fill the snake up before taking it?"

"I would not dare." Such a large snake, and it was also a poisonous snake. What would he do if it suddenly escaped from the bag?
