Chapter 125 Arrangement, Opening of the Clinic
"Put out your hands!"
After hearing Mai Dong's words, several people hesitated and did not do as he said.
"Didn't the princess get vaccinated before? Why does she need to get vaccinated again now?"
"I heard that vaccination is very risky, with more than half of the deaths and injuries..." Several people spoke hesitantly.
"Shut up! Don't forget that you are the Qinglong Guards of Prince Ning's Mansion! And don't forget your responsibilities!" Mai Dong couldn't listen any longer and his brows furrowed.
"Protect Prince Ning, even if it means going through fire and water!" Several people spoke in unison, their voices majestic.
"If you are not afraid of death, why are you afraid of vaccination?"
Mai Dong came forward with a cane, his face cold and dignified, "Why are you still standing there? Let the princess get vaccinated!"
Although Shengjing is keeping it a secret now, smallpox has broken out in the north of the city and Shiqiao Town, and the epidemic cannot be concealed for too long. Soon, the whole of Shengjing will fall.
The princess's move was a precautionary measure.
She did this for the good of the people of Shengjing and for the good of the prince.
If even the people in Prince Ning's Mansion are unwilling to experiment, who will support her?
"Yes, we will obey your orders!" Several guards responded in unison.
Just now they were almost distracted by the rumors in the backyard, but now after hearing Mai Wei's words, they no longer hesitated.
Their duty is to guard Prince Ning's Mansion. Since everything the princess does is for the prince, what are they hesitating about?
Lin Miaoyin cut cross-shaped wounds on the arms of several people in turn and smeared the acne scabs.
When I finished, it was completely dark.
Lin Miaoyin had a simple meal and then fell asleep. She rested in Shaohuayuan for two whole days before she recovered. The acne scabs on her face and body had all faded away.
During her illness, Yuzhu had already booked a shop on Tianrun Street.
Just wait until she recovers and opens the door.
Lin Miaoyin packed herself up early and asked a few servants to carry the door plaque and belongings bestowed by Emperor Ming out of the house.
When passing by the backyard, I looked up and saw several maids and old women gathered together whispering.
When he saw her, he showed no disdain in his eyes.
"You have to know that this disease can kill people. Will she take the risk?"
"This is smallpox! Even if you don't die, you will be left with pockmarks on your face if you barely survive. I don't believe she doesn't use the medicine for herself?"
"I have lived for so many years, and I have never heard of anyone recovering from smallpox in just two days..."
Lin Miaoyin frowned slightly.
Two days ago, the guards had reminded everyone in the mansion that she was sick, but she had been busy with smallpox vaccinations during the past two days and had not taken the matter to heart. Unexpectedly, the discussions were getting more and more intense.
I'm afraid that now everyone in the mansion thinks that she deliberately did not vaccinate herself just to show her selfless dedication to saving Nanny Zhang, so as to make Beigong You grateful.
"I told you long ago that the princess was pretending to be sick, but you still didn't believe it!"
"Last time, the concubine simply forgot that she had smallpox when she was a child, and people accused her of seeking repayment for a favor. Now the princess has done something like this..."
At this point, the contempt in their eyes grew even stronger.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Yuzhu rushed over, wishing she could tear several people's mouths apart.
"No, nothing." Several people immediately lowered their heads and stopped talking.
"Ungrateful!" Yuzhu stamped her feet angrily, her cheeks puffed up with anger.
"They are just a bunch of ungrateful people!" Mrs. Sun took a large basin of slop and poured it over them.
"We're going to die!" Several people were caught off guard and drenched like drowned rats, and couldn't help but curse out loud.
"Mrs. Sun, you are fine...what are you doing?"
"If I hear you say something dirty again and offend the princess, don't blame me for being rude!"
"You..." When they met Grandma Sun's fierce eyes, they fell silent immediately.
“Bah! If the princess hadn’t vaccinated you, you would have died of illness long ago. How can you still have the energy to make up stories about the princess?” Old Lady Sun spat fiercely as she watched the backs of the people dispersing in all directions.
She turned around and put on a kind face, "Princess, are you okay?"
Lin Miaoyin shook her head.
"They are just bored and have nothing to do, so they keep gossiping. Don't take it to heart, Princess. Everyone with a discerning eye remembers what you have done for the palace." Granny Sun was afraid that Lin Miaoyin would be disappointed, so she comforted her.
"I'm fine, you go and do your work." Lin Miaoyin said and left the house.
She has important things to do now, and it won't be too late to deal with the trivial matters in the house after she is done.
…
Tianrun Street.
In the attic on the second floor, a man sat by the window, his eyes slightly closed, his hand against his forehead, leaving a piece of his scarlet clothes fluttering in the breeze.
Hearing the footsteps approaching, he frowned slightly but did not open his eyes.
"Sir, why do you frown every time I come?" Liu Wumei waved the handkerchief in her hand dissatisfiedly.
"Stop talking so much and pack your things quickly, they will be here soon."
Liu Wumei didn't move. She crossed her arms across her chest and twisted her waist as she said, "I don't understand. Why did you come all the way to Beiliang and take so much trouble to buy this shop?"
"If you're talking about money, the Shen family is not short of money. Besides, you only rented this shop for 1,500 taels a year. Let alone making money, it's good enough if you don't lose money."
"Of course...it's for Princess Ning." Shen Yu said as he opened his eyes. The light in his narrow and long phoenix eyes flowed, making the crabapple flowers under the window lose their color.
Liu Wumei's heart pounded twice and she called him a monster.
Thinking of what the man just said, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Master, are you interested in that woman?"
"This young master has no interest in pregnant women." Shen Yu said as he jumped off the windowsill, turned around and left the room, "Send this young master's things to the third floor. You know what's in there, if you don't want to lose your life, don't move."
"Young Master..."
"You know, I like quietness."
Liu Wumei immediately shut up. When he thought about seeing Lin Miaoyin often in the future, he frowned unhappily.
He hates women, especially beautiful women.
…
At this time, Beigong You was busy resettling the people of Shiqiao Town.
Beigong Yi was very punctual. He led the soldiers to work day and night and built a resettlement center for the plague in just two days.
However, it is easy to build a resettlement center, but isolating the villagers is a big problem.
Not to mention that very few doctors were willing to treat smallpox patients, even patients infected with smallpox were unwilling to be isolated in the pestilence center.
Especially for some infected children, no matter how their parents persuade them, they refuse to let go.
"Don't say anything. I won't let my brother go."
"There are people in there who are seriously ill and incurable. If they go there, they will die. Who would dare to go there?"
"Smallpox is contagious. If you keep him at home, he will infect the whole family!"
"My brother just caught a cold, not smallpox."
"Yes, it's not smallpox!"
The couple insisted, and the Qinglong Guards were in a difficult position.
They can’t snatch the child away if the parents don’t allow it.
But if left unchecked, the smallpox epidemic would only get worse.
Just when everyone was getting anxious, Feng Ming came hurriedly, "My Lord, the clinic that the princess bought on Tianrun Street is now open!"
