【163】Large-scale epidemic
Mu Qingyao was delighted and quickly replied, "Yes, father." Her voice was filled with joy.
Chi Rui couldn't refuse, so he followed Mu Qingyao to the back garden.
Along the way, Mu Qingyao would occasionally glance at Chi Rui out of the corner of her eyes, even though she was wearing a black iron mask that covered half of her face.
But just the half of Xue'er's face exposed was enough to make her heart flutter.
Chi Rui was attracted by the beautiful scenery of the back garden, where there were colorful flowers, green grass, rockery and flowing water, which made it look like a fairyland on earth.
"Mr. Su, what do you think of this back garden?" Mu Qingyao asked softly, with a hint of anticipation in her voice.
"Beautiful, like a fairyland." Chi Rui exclaimed sincerely.
"This back garden is my favorite place. I often come here to read and paint on weekdays." Mu Qingyao said, her eyes full of love for this world.
The two of them walked and talked, and before they knew it, Mu Qingyao felt that they had met too late.
He found that Su Rui was not only knowledgeable, but also humorous and had unique insights into many things.
Before I knew it, it was getting dark.
Chi Rui realized it was getting late, so he said goodbye to Mu Qingyao. Mu Qingyao was reluctant to leave, but it was difficult to persuade him to stay. She could only say, "Mr. Su, if you have free time in the future, I hope you can come to visit us often." Her eyes were full of anticipation.
Her asthma symptoms gradually improved with the prescriptions and conditioning plans Su Xueer left for her.
Before, she locked herself in the house every day, without sunlight or wind.
I don't have much hope for my life.
Be prepared to die at any time.
But her health gradually improved, and she was willing to go out again.
I am even more full of longing for the future.
For example, when I saw Chi Rui, my heart was pounding.
Chi Rui smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
Mu Qingyao stared at his back for a long time, unable to recover from her shock.
As soon as Chi Rui left the shogunate, he clenched his hands tightly, wishing he could kill everyone in the Mu family.
But he couldn't, because of her, Su Xueer.
She said that she didn't want to become a madman who kills without blinking an eye on the road of revenge.
So, he chose to take it slow.
He looked up at the sky, and Su Xueer's face was printed in the blue sky. His cold thin lips curled up slightly.
Qianyu and Xue Lingyu went to Bijia Village and did not come back for the whole night.
Just when Chi Rui was about to go look for someone himself, Qianyu came back in a hurry.
"Young Master..." His face was exhausted, his eye sockets were sunken, and he had obvious dark circles under his eyes, as if he had not slept all night.
There was also anxiety in his tone.
Chi Rui: "Why are you coming back now?"
"Oh no, something happened."
"What is it?"
"More than 100 households in Bijia Village have all fallen ill, and all of them have symptoms of fever, chills, and constant coughing."
Chi Rui frowned, "How could this be?"
Qian Yu replied, "I don't know either. Initially, it was just Old Man Li who was sick. After returning home, he infected his family, causing them all to show symptoms. But unexpectedly, within a day, the entire village showed the same symptoms."
Chi Rui looked at Qianyu: "What about you and Xue Lingyu? How are you feeling? Are you feeling unwell?"
Qianyu suddenly remembered and replied with some confusion: "It's strange, ever since Old Man Li's family showed symptoms, Lingyu and I have been taking care of them and helping with the work in Bijia Village, but we haven't felt any discomfort, while everyone in Bijia Village has fallen ill."
"Where did you rescue that old man Li?"
