Qingfeng heaved a sigh of relief and said, "In this case, we don't have to be afraid. All we can think of is to come and ask for your help."

"This is as it should be. We are relatives." An Yan said, and urged them to eat first. Everything can be solved easily."

Mancao stared at the rice bowl and said, "Hey, that's where I grew up. I'm really worried about it. I can't leave it at all."

An Yan took these words to heart, thinking that since Mancao was so attached to her home, she would not be willing to move out and live somewhere else. Besides, it was obvious that she did not understand water areas, and the same was true for Qingfeng. It would be bad if she forced them to do so, so there was no need to ask them to help look after the other side of the river.

Li Rongsen came in and said, "I have given the order. I have sent a team to your place overnight. They will bring some daily necessities and should be able to help you."

"Thank you very much." Qingfeng stood up and bowed to Li Rongsen.

Li Rongsen said: "What are you doing? Why do you have to be so polite to me? You and I are good friends."

Qingfeng smiled lightly, then sat down and said to Mancao, "Let's eat first. You haven't had a good meal in the past two days, and you look thinner. Now that you are here, there is no need to worry anymore."

"That's true. What is there for An Yan to worry about?" Li Rongsen also said the same thing.

Only then did Mancao smile.

An Yan said to Li Rongsen, "I heard from Mancao that the people there were poisoned, and it seems to be due to the water. You should ask someone to go to the waterway to fetch some water to see if it is caused there. Also bring some medicine."

"I've asked them to bring a lot of universal medicines." Li Rongsen said as An Yan picked up some food and said, "You don't have to worry about it. I'm a man, so I'll make the arrangements. Just rest assured."

Mancao noticed that Li Rongsen looked at An Yan with deep affection, and she couldn't help but look at Qingfeng and saw him picking up some food for her.

An Yan said to Man Cao, "You guys stay here tonight and discuss other matters tomorrow."

"We dare not stay for long. We must go back early to help." Mancao was a little anxious.

An Yan nodded slightly. She didn't force her to stay for a few more days. She said, "Okay, I understand. I'll do as you wish. I'll ask the old man to prepare some things for you. You can take them with you."

Only then did Mancao breathe a sigh of relief and finally started to eat.

After a few people had dinner, they saw someone outside bringing in water from the river.

Yan Qingqiu took it to the pharmacy to test for poison, while An Yan prepared some common medicines and instructed the old man to prepare things for a few horse-drawn carriages, load some supplies onto the carriages, and let Mancao and the others take them back tomorrow.

Li Rongsen and Qingfeng were sitting at the table, each with a cup of tea, discussing something.

Qingfeng said: "There are only medicinal herbs and other things there, and it seems there is nothing else."

"Stones can also be used to do business." Li Rongsen reminded him.

"What kind of stone?" Qingfeng asked. He didn't quite understand and didn't understand the ins and outs of it.

"People in our area often like to play a game of gambling with raw jade," said Li Rongsen.

"That's easy. So what should I do?" Qingfeng was quite interested in this and wanted Li Rongsen to make some arrangements for him so that he could go back and do it.

Anyan was talking to Mancao. She asked, "This time I asked you to bring musical instruments and sheet music with you for your entertainment."

"Yeah, I feel bored there." Mancao chuckled, but then said, "But I'm raising silkworms recently, and I'm thinking of shipping the silk and cotton out. I think the North Courtyard wants them."

"That's fine. Let Li Rongsen arrange it for you." An Yan thought this was a good idea.

Mancao chuckled and nodded, then said, "I'm in a hurry again this time. Once things are settled over there, I'll come over to have fun with you for two days."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you." An Yan nodded and continued to pull out the herbs in her hand.

Yan Qingqiu came in from outside. He did not disturb Qingfeng and Li Rongsen. He went to An Yan and said to her, "We have figured it out. It is not a deadly poison. It is just to kill some fish and shrimps. It will be fine after a while. People will have some mild symptoms after eating it, but it is easy to treat."

"If there is an antidote, you should try it." An Yan said to him.

Yan Qingqiu nodded, and he placed a medicine bottle in front of An Yan, and said, "Okay, it's all ready, just sprinkle it into the water, but the dead fish and shrimp can't be eaten."

Mancao quickly agreed and said, "Okay, I'll tell them when I get back tomorrow."

An Yan handed her the prepared medicine and said, "Well, take all of this with you. They will come in handy eventually."

Mancao added: "Thanks to meeting you, otherwise we wouldn't know what to do. My brother is also very grateful to you. My grandmother is always talking about you and said that when you are free, please go and see her."

"Okay, I'll remember that." An Yan agreed.

There was no other conversation that night. Mancao and Qingfeng had to get up early, so they went to their room to rest earlier than Anyan and the others.

The old man came over and said to An Yan, "We have prepared things for eight carriages. Is that enough?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"It's basically enough. We'll talk about it if it's not enough." An Yan replied.

"What would you like to have for supper today?" the old man asked again.

Yan Qingqiu quickly came out to talk: "Just make whatever is good, the most important thing is that it tastes good, nothing else matters."

"I didn't ask you, why are you in such a hurry?" the old man teased him.

Yan Qingqiu didn't say anything, just looked at An Yan, then gave Li Rongsen a wink, thinking that since he couldn't give the old man an order, the two of them could do it.

But at this time, someone outside strode forward and said to An Yan: "City Lord, go and take a look. Those people who came from the river are sick. It seems to be an infectious disease. Everyone in our city has been infected."

The old man was shocked.

"Don't panic, I'll go over and take a look." An Yan said as she went back to take the medicine box. When she walked out of the house, she said to the old man, "You should send someone to deliver some medicine to Meidie and Beifeng across the river."

"Yes, yes, I understand." The old man nodded repeatedly.

Li Rongsen naturally had to follow An Yan. He was really a little worried. Yan Qingqiu also forgot to eat and followed An Yan out of the house.

The three of them arrived at the place where the people living along the river were resettled and found that their faces looked very bad and some of them were vomiting. This made An Yan feel very bad. She said to Yan Qingqiu, "Quickly take out the antidote you just made. I'm afraid they must have eaten something to become like this."

"Fortunately it has been prepared just now." Yan Qingqiu said and went to get the medicine first.

Another citizen from West City came over to An Yan. She was a middle-aged woman, dressed rather simply, but it was not because she was poor. She just didn't like to dress flashy.

The citizens of West City are all very wealthy, which is why most people want to come to West City.

The woman said to An Yan, "City Lord, what should we do? Is their disease contagious? My man also says he can't breathe."

"Let me go and see where he is?" An Yan asked.

"Mayor, please follow me." The woman led An Yan into a yard, and then took her to a small room. Her man was sleeping on the mahogany bed, breathing rapidly as if he had asthma.
