Gao Mingkun glared at them. “You just won’t admit it! You’ve been giving him a hard time, bullying him, and stealing from his family! If I were my brother, I
would have abandoned you already! I wouldn’t have waited until now!” Before, none of the others would admit that.
But now, without Gao Mingjing, they were all starving. Their legs were unsteady, and they were so thirsty that they thought their mouths were on fire. All they wanted to do was cry.
The third son said, “But where is Mingjing? Where is my brother?”
The second son said, “If we find Mingjing, I won’t take advantage of him anymore.”
The others nodded as well and pleaded, “Where is Mingjing? I know we deserve this, but he has abandoned our mother as well.”

Hearing that, the others lost all hope.
They hadn’t eaten anything in three days. When they were hungry, they would eat the grass on the ground, but the grass was dry, and they spat it out as soon as it hit their mouths.
“Look! There’s a rat!”
The third son suddenly shouted and dashed off.
There was indeed a rat a short distance away, but it was obviously dead and already stank.
But for the sake of a dead rat, the brothers almost tried to kill one another. Old Mrs. Gao sat on the ground and cried, but there was nothing she could do. “Let’s make some soup for everyone with this rat!”
They carried the pot with them earlier, so it wasn’t stolen with the carriage. Gao Mingkun frowned. “No, it’s a dead rat. You can’t eat it. You’ll get sick!”
However, the people of the Gao family were so hungry that they couldn’t see straight. They didn’t care if they would get sick. If they didn’t eat, they would die.
Hence, the dead rat was thrown into a pot, and everyone drooled over it.
Gao Mingkun couldn’t let that happen.
Hence, when no one was looking, he kicked the pot and spilled the soup.
“Argh! My rat meat!”
The Gao family was furious and tried to take the rat meat.
However, Gao Mingkun picked up the rat and ran as fast as he could. He then tossed the rat into a creek in the distance.
The Gao family was so hungry that they couldn’t run as fast as Gao Mingkun. It took them a while to catch up with him.
“Where’s my rat? Where is it?!”
They surrounded Gao Mingkun and were worried sick. Gao Mingkun pointed into the distance. “There.”

It was a dead rat with a tempting smell!
But the creek was deep in the valley, so they couldn’t go down.
“Argh!”
The third son, who was starving, smacked Gao Mingkun on the head.
“Why did you do that? I’m going to kill you!
“That’s our life-saving meat! How could you throw it away?! “Gao Mingkun, I hate you so much! Why can’t you be dead?
“You’re going to get us all killed!”
Everyone was blaming Gao Mingkun, including old Mrs. Gao, who was hitting him with the pot.
Gao Mingkun said stubbornly, “It’s a dead rat! You can’t eat it! It’ll kill you!”
‘Who told you that?”
Just then…
