Chapter 162: You Deserve It, the Witch Who Harms Others
It was already late at night when we returned to Yipin Guo.
Lin Miaoyin was busy feeding medicine and giving intravenous drips to the people who had just been rescued.
Ding Xiang was worried that her body couldn't handle it, so she took the initiative to say, "I'll stay here and watch them get the infusion. Princess, go to sleep."
Mai Dong also bowed to her, "Princess, go and rest first. Your health is the most important thing now. As for the people infected on the streets of Shengjing, rest assured and leave it to me."
Lin Miaoyin didn't sleep too long. Just as the sky was getting light, she was awakened by the sound of knocking on the door.
She opened her eyes drowsily, put on her clothes and stood up.
Ding Xiang saw her coming out and hurried to greet her, "Princess, it's still early, go back to sleep."
Lin Miaoyin shook her head and looked towards the door. "What's going on?"
Before Ding Xiang could say anything, the man rushed into the room holding the child and knelt down at her feet. "Please, Princess Ning, have mercy on me and save my son!"
"Director Kang?" Lin Miaoyin was a little surprised.
When the other patients in the ward heard this name, they immediately became alert.
Everyone was filled with fear of Kang Dayong, but more than that, they were filled with uncontrollable hostility.
In the past few days, countless victims of the epidemic had died at his hands. They hated him to the core. If he had not been seriously ill and unable to do anything to him, they would have skinned and boned him long ago.
Now that I see him coming, how can I sit still?
"You burned my sister to death, I'm going to fight you!" The speaker was a teenager. Although he was thin, he was very strong. He jumped off the bed and rushed towards Kang Dayong.
Kang Dayong was caught off guard and fell to the ground with his buttocks.
"I'm going to kill you to avenge my sister!" The young man raised his fist and hit him hard.
Seeing this, the others also picked up things around them and threw them at Kang Dayong.
Kang Dayong said nothing from beginning to end, but just held the child tightly in his arms to prevent him from getting hurt.
Lin Miaoyin looked at the crowd who were becoming more and more excited, and frowned fiercely, "Stop!"
"Princess Ning, he killed our relatives. We are doing this to avenge them. Please don't stop us."
"Yes, he did burn your relatives to death, but he was also following orders and had no choice."
Lin Miaoyin calmed everyone down, "Everyone, please be patient. The most important thing right now is your health and the smallpox that is rampant in this city. In the face of the epidemic, the entire Shengjing City is in danger. We should temporarily put aside our personal grudges and fight the epidemic with all our strength."
Kang Dayong looked up in shock.
He thought Lin Miaoyin would sneer at him like the other victims in the room. After all, he wanted to burn the victims to death last night. Now, it was his own son's turn to get smallpox. Not only did he cover it up, he also tried every means to seek medical treatment for him.
Unexpectedly, she didn't care about what happened last night at all and even spoke up for him.
Finally, after Lin Miaoyin's persuasion, the infected people in the room calmed down and stopped taking action.
But they still looked at Kang Dayong with hatred.
"Princess Ning, please save him."
Hearing this, Lin Miaoyin subconsciously looked at the child in Kang Dayong's arms. The boy was about five or six years old, white and chubby and very cute, but at this moment his chubby little face was flushed red, especially the bright red acne scar between his eyebrows which was particularly eye-catching.
"This is my son. He suddenly had a high fever last night and it seems... seems to have smallpox. Princess Ning, please save him." Kang Dayong's face was full of fatigue, and he no longer had the majesty and sternness he had last night.
At this time, he was just a father worried about his son.
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice of "You deserve it" was heard in the room. The young man spat fiercely and said through gritted teeth: "When you burned my sister to death, did you ever think about today?"
"In order to protect the safety of Shengjing City, shouldn't Governor Kang also burn him to death?"
"Do you know what will happen if you shelter a smallpox victim?"
Facing the crowd's questioning, Kang Dayong bent his back and said, "I know you hate me, and I hate myself too. I have not protected Shengjing, nor my family. As long as my brother is safe, I am willing to die to atone for my sins!"
At this moment, Lin Miaoyin spoke softly, "Doctor Kang, are you willing to believe me?"
Kang Dayong nodded heavily, "I believe in Princess Ning."
It doesn't matter whether he believes it or not. Now as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will not give up.
And Lin Miaoyin is his only lifeline.
"Okay, put the child down first." Lin Miaoyin said as she began to check Hui Ge'er.
Fortunately, they discovered it in time. The child now only has a high fever and has not yet started to have a rash. If treated in time, perhaps the rash will not occur.
Although proper care can reduce the risk of disfigurement.
But once infected with smallpox, scars will be left to varying degrees, the only difference being the depth.
The child is still young and has a long life ahead of him.
It’s better not to disfigure yourself.
When Lin Miaoyin was treating Hui Ge'er, Kang Dayong was standing by her side.
An hour later, it was bright outside the window. The morning light came in through the window lattice and fell on Hui Ge'er's chubby cheeks, making his sleeping face peaceful.
At this time, his fever had subsided and his little face, which had been red from fever, had returned to normal.
Even the pale lips had a little more color.
Kang Dayong was originally skeptical about Lin Miaoyin's medical skills, but now seeing Hui Ge'er's appearance, he no longer had any concerns and spoke excitedly, "Princess Ning, Hui Ge'er's illness..."
"It's under control now. If there are no accidents, he will be fully recovered in two days."
Kang Dayong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Princess Ning saved my brother, so she is the benefactor of my Kang family. I will work like a slave to repay Princess Ning's great kindness." He lifted his robe and knelt down.
"Kang Dutou is in a serious condition, but I do have something I want to trouble you with right now."
Kang Dayong was immediately excited when he heard that he could help Lin Miaoyin. "Princess Ning, please tell me. As long as I can be of use, I will do my best."
"I want to ask Kang Dutou to go to the north of the city and deliver a batch of medicine to Zhang Yuanshou."
As soon as the treatment was effective, Zhang Miaochun had someone send her the prescription. So she should also send some medicine over, as a courtesy.
Maidong followed her around all day yesterday and searched for and resettled the infected people at night.
I had just rested and had dinner before I had to go back to Shiqiao Town with her. I really didn't have the energy to run anymore.
As for Yuzhu, when she came back, it was already noon.
Besides, she is a woman, so she is worried.
But Kang Dayong is different. He is the head of the yamen runners in Jingzhao Prefecture. Everyone guarding the city knows him. It is convenient for him to leave the city and reduce unnecessary trouble.
He is the most suitable person to deliver the medicine.
Kang Dayong cupped his hands and said, "Okay, I will go there for Princess Ning right away."
Not long after he left, Yuzhu rushed back and told Lin Miaoyin about the situation in Youcheng Mansion.
Lin Miaoyin finished her porridge and wiped her mouth.
She had guessed early on that Xiao Chen and Lin Qingxue, mother and daughter, had not been vaccinated against smallpox.
She didn't want to waste time on irrelevant people, so she ordered directly: "Go pack up, let's go back."
As the three of them walked out of the door of Yipintang, a rotten cabbage hit them.
"Look, the evil witch is coming out!"
