After being divorced, I took care of my two children and reached the peak of my life

Chapter 193 Plague

But before the two of them left the hospital, they saw several people coming from a distance. The leader was Wang Xiaojiang, and behind him was a woman with a flower on her head. It was obvious that she was a matchmaker.

Seeing this, the village head and his wife looked at each other and quickly retreated back to the yard.

Since both families were willing, the discussion went smoothly. However, when it came to the wedding date, the Wang family hesitated and actually postponed it to a year later.

He came to propose marriage but kept dragging his feet, arriving only these days. Now that the date has been set, it has been pushed back to next year.

Thinking of this, the village chief's wife became a little restless. She felt that the Wang family was deliberately making trouble for her, so her expression changed.

"Sister Wang, I know that this marriage is too high for our Chen family. However, if your Wang family does not agree with this marriage, you can just say it clearly. There is no need to postpone the date again and again..."

In fact, when it comes to the wedding date, it is mostly the girl's family who wants to postpone it and let their daughter stay at home for a longer time. The village head and his wife naturally think so too, but they think it is their own idea. If the matter is brought up by the man, it would seem that he does not want the girl to enter the house.

The village head's wife could not bear to see her precious daughter being recommended in this way, so she immediately frowned.

After hearing what the village head's wife said, Queen Mother, who was originally pale, turned even paler. She was not good at speaking, and now she was so nervous that she didn't know how to explain.

"My dear relatives, no, no, that's not true. It's a blessing for our Wang family to marry a daughter-in-law like Lanhua. How could we not agree? We are just worried that if Lanhua comes in now, it will be unfair to her..."

When the village head and his wife heard what the Queen Mother said, their brows furrowed even more.

Wang Xiaojiang saw his mother, who had been talking for a long time but still couldn't explain clearly, so he hurriedly started to explain.

"Aunt, you have misunderstood. I, I also want to marry Lanhua home as soon as possible..." As he said this, his cheeks turned slightly red, but he was worried that the Chen family would misunderstand his intentions, so he continued.

"But the town is in chaos now, with refugees everywhere looting for food. My mother is worried that Lanhua will be in danger if she marries in the town now, so she wants to postpone the marriage. After all, the village is safer than the town..."

"You said that there are refugees in the town stealing food..."

As soon as Wang Xiaojiang finished speaking, the village chief stood up in shock. The last time he went to buy food, the price had only increased, but he didn't expect it to be so serious now.

"Yes, Uncle Chen, it was because of my elder sister that she was hit in the stomach by the refugees who came in to steal food, and she almost had a miscarriage. My mother has been taking care of her at home these days, so we came a little late..."

"Yes, my dear relatives, it's our fault. We have delayed the event, but..."

"We misunderstood. How is that girl Yan'er now? Is she in danger..."

When the village head and his wife heard what Wang Xiaojiang said, they were even more shocked. They thought it was just a misunderstanding, so they quickly interrupted Wang's mother and spoke with an apologetic look.

"I'm feeling better now, but I need to rest for a few days. My son-in-law is taking care of me at home. The doctor said it's best not to get out of bed before the birth..."

After hearing what the Queen Mother said, the village head and his wife finally understood why Manager Tong did not come with them.

"The town is in such a mess nowadays, why don't you and your family move in with us..."

At this time, the village chief's wife also felt that what she had just said was a bit too much. Of course, I was really worried about the situation of the Wang family, so I made an invitation.

"Thank you, in-laws. In town, just stay at home and keep the door closed. But don't worry too much. Besides, my daughter is still unable to get out of bed. I'm sorry that Lanhua has to wait for our Xiaojiang..."

"I don't feel wronged, I don't feel wronged. I am so happy that the girl can stay at home with me for more time. But if Yan'er needs any help, just tell me. We will definitely help if we can..."

After the matter was opened up, the smile on the face of the village chief's wife couldn't help but deepen a little.

On the other side, at the general's mansion, Nangong Ling and his wife felt their hearts almost jump into their throats when they saw the two little guys' red and hot faces and the imperial physician's fingers resting on their wrists for a long time without lifting them.

As soon as the imperial physician raised his finger, Madam Nangong wanted to ask something, but just as she opened her mouth and before she could even utter a word, she was startled by the imperial physician's action and fell backwards. If she had not been supported by Nangong Yuan who had just rushed back, she would have been seriously injured.

Nangong Yuan looked at the imperial physician who was covering his mouth and nose tightly, and his brows were deeply furrowed.

"Imperial Physician, what do you mean..."

The imperial physician had no time to speak. He covered his mouth and nose and left the inner room first. Then he spoke with a pale face.

"The symptoms of the dissatisfied general, the young master, and the young lady are exactly the same as those of the patients outside the city recently. I'm afraid it is, I'm afraid it is..."

The imperial physician stopped talking before he finished. When Nangong Yuan heard the imperial physician's words, he couldn't help but stagger.

He knew the situation outside the city better than anyone else. Many people had died in recent days, and human-to-human transmission had occurred.

Those people first suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, and then had a fever. The doctors in the clinic had studied many kinds of prescriptions, and even the Imperial Hospital had studied them for many days, but there was still no effect.

It was originally thought that the disease was only outside the city, so the city gates were kept closed, but no one expected that it had now spread into the city.

Looking at the two little people with red faces, Nangong Yuan's eyes, which had already turned scarlet due to not sleeping for a few days, were even more terrifying at this moment.

"Imperial Physician, is there any way..."

In fact, Nangong Yuan knew that if the Imperial Hospital said it had a solution, they would have already presented the prescription to the emperor to claim credit, and he would not be hounded by Emperor Beichen and scolded for incompetence every day. However, he still could not help asking.

"Well, well, I really have no choice..."

Upon hearing the imperial physician's words, Madam Nangong rolled her eyes and fainted. Everyone worked hard to revive her.

Looking at the two little guys on the bed murmuring in pain, and the two old men with pale and desperate faces, Nangong Yuan's eyes became more and more red.

"Imperial Physician, I know someone who has a way to cure this disease, but that person is not in Kyoto now. I will go find her now. During this time, you may be able to save both of their lives..."

"Where is that person, and how long will it take you..."

Hearing Nangong Yuan's words, the imperial physician's eyes lit up and he quickly asked.
