Old Lady Zhu couldn't bear to let Liu Meixin enter Lujia Village alone, so she stepped forward to reply.
"I'll go too."
After exchanging glances, the others also stepped forward to support Liu Meixin and Old Lady Zhu.
Chen Xiang never expected that all the people in Grandma Zhu's family would be so reckless.
It's one thing for others to enter Lujia Village, but why is Sun Jiayan also trying to go in? His injuries haven't fully healed yet. If she goes in, who will treat him?
With this in mind, he looked at everyone with a stern face and warned, "You all need to understand that if you go in and get infected, you'll never be able to get out."
"Lord Chen, we know."
Old Mrs. Zhu knew all too well the consequences of going in, but as the pillar of the family, she had to stand with her daughter-in-law through thick and thin.
"Alright, then Zhu Lao Er's wife can stay, the rest can do as they please."
Considering that the Zhu family had successfully resolved the crisis in Jiangyang City, Chen Xiang decided to escort them to the border.
But I never expected them to be so ungrateful, rushing off to their deaths for the sake of those two brats.
Sun Jiayan thought she had misheard and stepped forward in a panic, demanding, "Lord Chen, what are you saying?"
"My injuries have not fully healed, and I need a doctor to take care of me. You cannot go."
Chen Xiang knew better than anyone the extent of his injury, and it was only under Sun Jiayan's care that he gradually recovered.
But if she leaves the group and there are no doctors around, what if she gets infected and her life is in danger?
"Lord Chen, I cannot be separated from my family. If you insist on forcing me to stay in the army, then I will die to prove it."
Sun Jiayan had no desire to stay in the team and associate with these ungrateful people. If Chen Xiang pushed her too far, she didn't want to live anymore.
Old Mrs. Zhu never expected her daughter-in-law to have such a violent temper, and she recklessly pulled out a dagger and put it to her own neck.
"Third brother's wife, don't do anything reckless, take care of your health."
Zhu Yanyan, who had returned to her own camp to rest, reluctantly came over after hearing the noise, and happened to overhear Chen Xiang and Sun Jiayan's conversation.
Worried that the escorts might be unwilling to let the Zhu family leave, she hurriedly went up to them and kindly reminded them.
"Lord Chen, if you wish to see a doctor, I can treat your wounds."
“I have far more medicine than Sun Jiayan.”
Chen Xiang squinted at Zhu Yanyan with suspicion for a while before slowly speaking.
"You also know medicine?"
"Of course, my medical skills might even be better than Madam Zhu's."
Zhu Yanyan was quite confident in her medical skills. Although she only knew basic bandaging knowledge, she had a medical room in her space.
It contains vaccines for different diseases, anti-inflammatory drugs, and diagnostic instruments. Even if she doesn't understand anything, she can still solve the problem easily.
"Boss, I've seen Zhu Yanyan treat Zhu Borong, so we can still trust her."
Zhu Wen noticed Chen Xiang's hesitation and stepped forward to quietly offer some words of advice.
Chen Xiang, who was still hesitant, had no choice but to agree to Zhu Yanyan's opinion and waved his hand impatiently.
"Someone, take Old Lady Zhu and her family to Lujia Village."
When Sun Jiayan learned that she finally didn't have to stay, she burst into tears and turned around to hug Grandma Zhu.
Liu Meixin stood beside her and gently reminded her, "Jiayan, now is not the time to cry. Do you remember what we found in the grass?"
"I remember, what's wrong?" Sun Jiayan quickly wiped away her tears, not understanding Liu Meixin's hint, and nodded with a sob.
Liu Meixin's mind was in a mess, and she didn't know how to convey her daughter's meaning, so she could only lean close to Sun Jiayan's ear and explain the purpose of those items.
Sun Jiayan stared blankly at the forest, rolled her eyes, picked up the bamboo basket, and pulled Zhu Chenfeng towards the forest.
Zhu Yanyan had been silently observing the actions of Grandma Zhu and the others. When she saw Sun Jiayan pulling Zhu Chenfeng and running towards the woods, she hurriedly followed.
Seeing this, Liu Meixin, holding her daughter, stopped Zhu Yanyan and loudly warned, "Zhu Yanyan, what are you trying to do now?"
"I'm worried you're up to something, I need to go into the woods and check."
Zhu Yanyan always felt that Sun Jiayan and Liu Meixin were plotting something. In order to send this family to Lujia Village, she could not let these damned cannon fodder continue to cause trouble.
[None of your business! You think you can wipe out my whole family? Dream on! Xixi won't let you, you bad guy, succeed.]
[Trying to play the hero and be a miracle doctor? Too bad, Xixi has already stolen everything from your medical room.]
[Let's see how you explain this to Chengxin then, hehe, you'll be so angry!]
Xixi gets angry whenever she sees Zhu Yanyan, so she spits at her and giggles.
As Liu Meixin listened to her daughter's playful baby voice, she suppressed a mischievous smile and stared intently at Zhu Yanyan.
Zhu Yanyan was sprayed in the face with saliva by Xixi, and immediately screamed, raising her hand to strike.
Just as the slap was about to land on Xixi's face, Zhu Haotian kicked Zhu Yanyan, his strong chest muscles shaking with anger.
"Who do you think you are, daring to bully my beloved daughter?"
Upon hearing his uncle's voice, Zhu Yiming also ran over with a wooden stick in hand and began to frantically strike Zhu Yanyan.
"How dare you bully my sister! I'll beat you to death, you scoundrel!"
Zhu Yanyan, who had been kicked, lay on the ground in pain. Before she could get up, she was attacked by Zhu Yiming, and screamed in agony.
Hearing her daughter's screams, Wen Xiuying rushed over and found her daughter being beaten by Zhu Yiming. She then shouted at the guards around her.
"Someone has been killed! Lord Chen, come quickly!"
Seeing this, Old Lady Zhu slowly stepped forward, stopped Zhu Yiming's movements, shielded him behind her, and said with a smile.
"Niece-in-law, how can you hold a grudge against a child? Yiming is playing with his cousin! What are you so worried about?"
"Play? Whose child is hitting people with a stick? You old hag, stop acting like you're so old."
These words completely enraged Wen Xiuying, who angrily pointed at Old Lady Zhu and cursed her.
After Zhu Yiming stopped, Zhu Yanyan got up from the ground, clutching her arm, and stared at Old Lady Zhu with a fierce expression.
At this time, Zhu Chenfeng and Sun Jiayan, who had already collected all the supplies, also returned safely.
In addition to collecting supplies, the two of them also found a lot of herbs that can prevent the spread of disease.
Liu Meixin was anxious about her son's condition and didn't want to waste any more time, so she stepped forward to remind her mother-in-law.
"Mother, Jiayan is back! Let's set off quickly!"
Grandma Zhu also felt that she couldn't waste any more time, so she turned around, put the things on the cart, and waved to her son.
"let's go!"
None of the escorts were willing to help Grandma Zhu get to Lujia Village, so in the end, Chen Xiang and Zhu Wen were the only ones who decided to go.
Zhu Yanyan gripped the arm in her hand, a smile of excitement on her face, and shouted at the back of the old lady Zhu.
"I hope you will have intact skin before you die. I've heard that smallpox eventually festers and rots."
Grandma Zhu didn't take Zhu Yanyan's words to heart and pushed the cart with her sons toward Lujia Village.
