Chapter 196 Chicken Plague, Self-Righteous Woman



"Don't worry, I just figured out some things, and maybe my personal temperament has been elevated." Qiu Yinong said jokingly.

When the relatives present heard this, they all laughed out loud.

"I don't know how the third brother is doing in the county." Sun Guiying began to worry about Qiu Hanyan again.

Qiu Yinong calculated secretly and frowned instantly.

"Don't worry about Third Brother, but he might have some emotional entanglements." Qiu Yinong said with a sigh.

"Huh? Emotional entanglement?" Everyone was so shocked by these words that they almost dropped their chopsticks. How could Qiu Hanyan, a cold and unapproachable person, have an emotional entanglement?

Qiu Yinong nodded and sighed, "Originally, when I looked at Third Brother's face, I was worried that he would be involved in a bad love affair."

"There's so much water right now that we can't go over and check. What can we do?"

"It's okay. I calculated earlier that Third Brother would have someone of honor to help him, and his true love is in the capital." After hearing what Qiu Yinong said, everyone felt relieved.

After lunch, the wind and rain stopped completely, and the temperature rose in just over an hour.

It was hot and stuffy, making it hard to breathe.

The water gradually calmed down and slowly began to recede.

"Xiao Liu, my chicken suddenly died. Can you take a look and see if it's still edible?" Later that evening, Qiu Yinong was taking pulses and treating illnesses for everyone at the village entrance.

An aunt from the next village came over with a chicken in hand and asked about it. After just one look, Qiu Yinong shouted, "It's chicken plague! Auntie, quickly find a place where no one is around and burn the chicken."

"Qing Yuan, I will go back and get some medicine later. Everyone needs to drink it and then distribute it to the surrounding villagers."

After all, there was a deviation. Chicken plague broke out before the plague even started.

There is a magical spring in Taohua Village's water source. People and livestock can drink it for a long time without any problems. However, this may not be the case for other villages.

After the flood, chicken plague broke out.

This is really not good news.

"A boat is coming." Someone with sharp eyes saw a boat heading towards Taohua Village.

"There's a rope blocking the river. Will something happen?"

"Stop, stop." The people on the shore were anxious and waved their arms to stop the boat.

The captain saw this and ordered the ship to slow down.

Standing at the bow were Zi Yao and Qiu Hanyan with a sullen face. Qiu Yinong walked to the shore curiously and looked towards the boat.

"Third brother, why do you have such a sour face?" Qiu Hanyan heard the joking tone in her words and immediately understood that this clever sister must have known something.

I sighed in my heart, but I didn't want to show a bad face to my sister.

The guys on the boat brought over the deck and everyone on board got off the boat one after another.

We rescued many people who fell into the water on the way, but now there is no place for them to stay.

"Since you have been rescued and brought here, please stay in the shed for the time being."

Qiu Yinong glanced at the refugees. No matter who they were in the past, since they were rescued, she couldn't just sit back and watch.

A woman spoke softly, "Young lady, I see there are several villages nearby. Do you have no place to stay?"

"Could you please take us in for a while so we can change clothes, take a shower, and have a good sleep?"

Before Qiu Yinong could say anything, the villagers of Taohua Village spoke up: "You are all refugees rescued along the way. Who knows who you were in the past, or whether you were sick or not?"

"Besides, we have young men in our family, and even unmarried daughters. What are we thinking about taking you in?"

The aunt who was speaking looked at the woman who was speaking with dissatisfaction. She looked less than twenty years old, delicate and gentle, and her clothes did not look like those of a proper lady.

She is either a concubine or a maid who has lost her way, or a girl from the Red Mansion.

Who dares to take him in?

After hearing what her aunt said, the young woman burst into tears out of grievance.

"Oh, don't cry. We can't take you in even if you cry. Maybe someone with other ideas will take you in, but our Taohua Village doesn't allow strangers or refugees to enter for the time being. That's the rule."

The aunt of Taohua Village did not give the woman a chance to bite, and blocked the road into the village.

The woman looked at Qiu Hanyan aggrievedly again: "Mr. Qiu..."

Qiu Hanyan didn't even look at her, and said directly to Qiu Yinong: "Sister, third brother will go back first."

"Okay, go ahead. I'll be home soon." Qiu Yinong covered her mouth and chuckled. She waited until Qiu Hanyan left as if escaping before looking at the woman.

"Who saved the person?" This question was asked by Zi Yao.

Zi Yao bowed and said, "Master, these refugees were rescued by the captain, but this woman has harassed the Third Young Master more than once."

"If you can behave yourself, you can still lead the ship until the flood recedes. If not, then leave with the captain."

The woman was furious and said unhappily: "You are the village chief, why do you chase me away?"

"Although Xiaoliu is not the village chief or the head of the village, all of us in the village listen to her!"

"We in Taohua Village are unwilling to rescue a woman like you!"

“Get out!”

The woman was dumbfounded and took several steps back in fear.

The other refugees said nothing, fearing that they would be driven away as well.

The woman stomped her feet in anger and ran away.

Qiu Yinong shook her head and raised her hand, saying, "Alright, let her be!"

"If she comes to collect food later, don't give it to her."

"Got it. Don't worry, Xiaoliu. Auntie will definitely not give her any food."

"As for you, come over here first and have your pulse checked. Once you're sure you don't have any infectious diseases, you can move into the shed. Although the conditions are a bit difficult, you can join the team building the shed in exchange for food."

The remaining refugees expressed their gratitude: "Thank you, young lady."

"Come and line up for inspection." Qiu Yinong sat down again and checked one by one.

There were three people with high fever. Qiu Yinong arranged a separate shed for them and asked the villagers to give them medicine to drink. They would wait until their fever subsided and they recovered before taking any further action.

"Okay, it's getting dark, I'll go back first."

"Zi Yao, take them back with me." Qiu Yinong glanced at Nanny Chen and her husband and spoke.

Zi Yao agreed, and the things given by *** had been taken back by the servants at home.

When she got home, Qiu Qinghe just came out. Qiu Yinong asked her to come back later to deliver something, so she didn't go back.

She saw that Qiu Yinong hadn't returned for a long time, so she wanted to go and see her, and she happened to run into her.

"Grandma." Qiu Qinghe was surprised to see Nanny Chen following behind Zi Yao.

Nanny Chen smiled with relief: "He'er."

"Great, Grandma, why are you here? Is this Grandpa?"

"Yes, this is your grandfather." Nanny Chen introduced with a smile.

"Let's talk inside." Qiu Yinong stepped into the house.

Qiu Qinghe hurriedly helped the two old people into the Qiu family. Nanny Chen and her husband looked around the mansion.

He whispered, "As expected of the Changping County Lady's home, this house is more beautiful than any other mansion in the capital."

"Grandma, do you already know that Yinong is the Princess of Changping County?" Qiu Qinghe asked curiously in a low voice.
