Chapter 355 They are really not human!

When Mei'er went to invite Song Yuqiu, Wen Yan was not idle either. He immediately cleared the venue, accommodated the patients, and sealed off the isolation.

People were also sent to Nanyang to investigate whether there were infected people in other places.

Zhao Yi stood by and couldn't help at all. Seeing a group of managers eagerly waiting for Song Yuqiu to rescue them, he became more and more anxious.

If Song Yuqiu really cured them and took the opportunity to win their hearts, it would be difficult for them to be on the same page with him in the future.

Her eyes flickered slightly, and she spoke in a puzzled tone, "It's strange to say, how come this epidemic didn't occur earlier or later, but it happened as soon as Madam came back? And all the doctors were helpless, so how come she was the only one who could cure it?"

Wen Yan looked at her coldly, "What do you mean?"

"Commander Wen, please don't misunderstand me," she smiled, "I'm not suspicious of who is targeting whom, I just have some questions that I can't figure out."

Although she didn't say it explicitly, everyone could hear her hidden meaning.

I'm afraid this epidemic was not spread intentionally by Song Yuqiu.

After all, everything is too coincidental!

Manager Qian also took the opportunity to agree, "Did you notice? Among the people that Madam brought back yesterday, one person looked very sick and was obviously seriously ill. Who knows, it might be the plague that she brought!"

"That's right. Lord Zhao specially held a banquet to entertain them, but none of them came to the banquet. They just locked themselves in the house. What do you think, is he trying to hide something?"

"Then why did Madam do this?"

"Cure us and let us be grateful to her!"

Some people who originally did not quite believe it began to waver after hearing these words.

Unexpectedly, a cold sneer came from the entrance, "I didn't expect you guys thought of me this much."

Everyone's heart tightened and they turned around quickly, only to see Mei Erjie supporting Song Yuqiu walking towards them.

Her lips were pale, her face was covered with rashes, and her steps were unsteady, obviously she was also infected.

Meier glanced at everyone, her disappointment evident in her words, "Our Madam was so busy looking through medical books to find a cure that she didn't even care about herself getting infected. And yet you guys turned the tables and said it was Madam's doing. Who are you and Madam? Would she have to damage her precious body just to deal with you?"

"What's more, at that time, Madam directly asked me to take the prescription to Lord Zhao and ask Lord Zhao to get the medicine to save everyone. If Lord Zhao was willing to help at that time, wouldn't everyone be grateful to Lord Zhao in the end? Would you still be grateful to her?"

"My wife has paid so much to save you, but she got nothing in return. Instead, she is complaining. Who can she go to for justice?"

These words left everyone speechless.

Yes, if their wife did this, how could she have harmed herself as well?

Judging from the pale color of his lips, his condition might be even more serious than theirs.

Moreover, they could have been saved a long time ago, it was obvious that Zhao Yi was unwilling to use medicine to save them!

Zhao Yi saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly said, "Madam, now is not the time to pursue these things. So many people are waiting, it is more important to save people!"

Song Yuqiu sneered in his heart.

Haha, you can't convince me with reason, so now you're resorting to moral kidnapping, right?

If she refuses to save him now, it will be her fault.

"Don't worry, Master Zhao. I will definitely... do my best to treat everyone..."

She panted for every sentence she spoke, and by the end, she couldn't even stand steadily.

Mei'er was indeed the best mouthpiece she had chosen. She immediately supported her and started to wail, "Madam, I told you to have a good rest, but you insisted that you were worried about us and wanted to treat us. Now that you are angry, who will care about you and who will save you?"

At this moment, everyone was panicked and anxious, and when they looked at Zhao Yi, their eyes were almost filled with hatred.

If she had not refused to give them medicine, they would have been saved long ago.

If she hadn't instigated discord, how could she have fainted while coming to rescue their lady?

Zhao Yi was extremely nervous, but he tried to calm himself down and asked, "Madam, if you can cure it, why can't you cure me?"

Could it be that she has no treatment at all and is pretending to faint just to cover up and shirk responsibility?

At this moment, even Song Yuqiu couldn't help but admire Zhao Yi's ability to change the topic and guide public opinion. Whenever things reached a desperate situation, she could always find an opportunity to fight back.

No wonder I couldn't beat her before.

But now it's different, I have the strongest military advisor behind me.

These situations were already expected!

She leaned weakly in Mei'er's arms, allowing Zhao Yi to question her.

Let the bullet fly for a while!

Seeing that she did not refute him, Zhao Yi thought he had guessed correctly. When he was about to press on, a guard came in hurriedly to report.

"Commander Wen, Lord Zhao, there are several herbal medicine merchants outside the door, saying that Madam has ordered a large amount of herbs from them!"

Wen Yan was stunned. "When did it happen?"

"An hour ago! Madam sent people everywhere, saying that human life was at stake and that she was willing to pay several times higher than the market price, asking all the major pharmacies to prepare the herbs and send them over as quickly as possible!"

An hour ago, it was just after Zhao Yi rejected Mei'er.

Mei'er's eyes were red. "Do you think my wife can't cure herself? She could have asked me to get her a prescription and drink it herself, and she wouldn't have to care about other people's lives. But she didn't care about her own health at all, and sent people running around just to buy the herbs as soon as possible to save you ungrateful people!"

After these words were spoken, many people lowered their heads in guilt.

Normally, they didn't take their wife seriously, always made things difficult for her, and even suspected her more than once. However, she silently did so many things for everyone.

They are not human beings!

Song Yuqiu smiled weakly and stopped Mei'er, "Okay... the medicine has arrived... I can also... rest assured..."

As she spoke, she closed her eyes and passed out.

"Madam! Don't scare me! Madam!" Mei'er burst into tears in an instant.

Upon seeing this, Wen Yan quickly asked someone to send Song Yuqiu back to her room and ask a doctor to check on her condition.

Zhao Yi knew that many people were resentful of her at the moment, so she immediately took the initiative to go to the door to receive the herbs, hoping to lower her posture and win back some people's hearts.

But when she reached the door, she was stunned.

The herbal medicine merchants said, "You can take the herbs, but you have to give us the money!"

"Yeah, it's not like a noble mansion would default on its debts, right?"

Zhao Yi had no choice but to ask, "How much are these herbs?"

"My eight thousand seven hundred and sixty-two taels."

"My six thousand four hundred and thirty-three taels."

"I have less, just over four thousand taels..."

A group of herbal medicine merchants quoted a price, and the total amount came to as much as 50,000 or 60,000 taels!

Zhao Yi couldn't control his expression and exclaimed, "Why is it so expensive?!"

The drug dealer said, "It's not expensive. In order to get these herbs as quickly as possible, we spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and many of them were bought at high prices. Your wife said that as long as the herbs are delivered within an hour, we will charge ten times the market price!"

If she hadn't made a promise, how could they have spared no effort to collect so many medicinal herbs in such a short time?

Zhao Yi's eyes turned, and he immediately said, "Give me the herbs first, and Madam will settle the bill with you later."

She wanted to take the credit, but Song Yuqiu had to pay for it.

After all, this was the promise Song Yuqiu himself made to these medicinal material merchants!
