I asked you to dig wild vegetables to pay off your debt, not go up the mountain to pick up money!

Chapter 368: Delivering Medicine Back to the Village

"Xiangxiang, just tell me directly. I have to go home now. If I leave without saying goodbye, my parents will definitely be worried."

"There's good news. The plague in Qingshi Village has improved. The young people have recovered 30% to 40% after taking medicine.

Only the elderly and children were seriously ill, and a few of them passed away.

There is another thing. People in Qingshi Village said that there were two old women working in the academy, washing clothes and mending clothes for the students.

They went to the academy yesterday morning. Xiangxiang guessed that someone in the academy might be infected, so she asked two puppets to go there, distribute medicines, and disinfect thoroughly.

Don't worry, Master, Xiangxiang will always keep an eye on it."

"Let's go home and leave some medicine for the village. Let's go to the academy this afternoon. I won't feel at ease unless I see my uncle in person."

"Okay."

Before returning to the village, Song Anning asked Xiangxiang to do a full body scan on him to make sure that he was not infected with any virus. Then he used the teleportation card and went to the back mountain.

He took out a backpack and filled it with two baskets of medicine. He carried one basket on his back and the other in his hand, then staggered down the mountain.

Banyue Village is quiet and peaceful. The children are running, chasing and playing on the ridges of the fields, looking very happy.

When they saw Song Anning, they were a little scared at first, and the smile on their faces disappeared. They all saw how this sister treated Hu Zi.

In addition, whenever they disobeyed, the elders in the family would use Song Anning to scare them. For the first two months, the children would run away when they saw her, and the more timid ones would even wet their pants out of fear.

After so many things happened, Song Anning had stayed in the village for a long time, and the children were not too scared. Two older ones came forward and took the backpack from her hands.

"Sister Aning, where have you been?

What’s in this basket? I’ve never seen it before. Is it delicious?

"..."

Song Anning smiled helplessly. She still remembered the despair in the eyes of the villagers in Qingshi Village and the fear on the faces of the children last night.

Some people in the village were weeding and hoeing in the fields, while others were doing needlework under the trees to cool off. The hustle and bustle outside had nothing to do with them.

"Help my sister carry the basket home first, and I'll get you some candy."

"Okay! I want to help Sister Aning."

"I'll help Sister Aning too..."

I thought that when I got home, my mother would come up with a broom, but after she entered the door, Wang Ying'er and Song Feng didn't say anything. They put down the work in their hands and put down the backpack on her back first.

Song Anning kept her word and went back to the house to get a big bag of candy for the children, and told them that they could only eat one piece a day.

The children thanked politely and ran off happily to play with the candies in their hands.

"Stinky girl, did you go out with Mr. Pan?

We were startled by the loud noise last night."

"..."

Song An Ning smiled awkwardly, and suddenly remembered that after his father was taken back by Su Chen, he also learned some kung fu, so he was naturally more sensitive than others.

And just the way she jumped last night probably woke up the whole family.

"Hehe, Auntie actually knew.

Mr. Pan took me to the town. There was a plague in the nearby village and in the town as well.

Fortunately, Mr. Pan was well prepared. He didn't want what happened thirty years ago to happen again, so he asked the people in Yaowang Valley to be on standby. Now the situation is stable.

I brought these two baskets of medicine back and will give them to my second grandfather later so that he can distribute them.

If we prepare early, even if someone gets sick, they won’t lose their lives.”

"What? Plague!

How could that be! "

Wang Ying'er and Song Feng were pale. Zhang was counting silver in the house. When she heard Song An Ning say that there was a plague in the town, the pain of losing her loved ones thirty years ago came to her mind again.

Song Xing was still in the academy in the town. There were many people there. If one person got sick, the rest would be unable to escape.

She threw the silver aside, quickly put on her shoes and got down to the ground, staggering. If Song An Ning hadn't been quick to help her, she would have fallen.

"A Ning, are you telling the truth?

What is the town like now? The plague will pass through people. Did you take medicine when you went to the town? "

Zhang was extremely anxious. How could this silly girl dare to go to the town when she knew it was a plague?

The plague does not discriminate between men, women, young or old. Once it gets on someone, no one can escape.

Song Anning quickly explained:

"Don't worry, Grandma. Mr. Pan only asked me to watch from a distance. I didn't go forward to help.

I asked about the situation at the academy and then returned with these two baskets of medicine."

"What about the academy?"

"Nothing happened. Yaowang Valley acted quickly, and just as they were about to develop, they were suppressed.

But I still want to say this: this epidemic is coming with such force that we cannot take it lightly. I'm going to find my second grandfather right now."

"Dad will go with you."

Everyone knew that the situation was urgent. Song Feng picked up two baskets of medicine and strode towards Song Erhe's house without saying much.

When the father and daughter entered the yard, they saw Song Erhe sitting at the door, teasing his little grandson.

Since the family started making money, life has improved. His grandchildren can all have enough food to eat. They are all plump and white, and very cute.

So when I have nothing to do, I call the children over, do nothing, and just watch him quietly, and I feel happy.

It was not until the two of them told each other what happened in the town that the teacup in Song Erhe's hand fell to the ground with a clatter. He was stunned for a long time before he reacted.

"Aning, say it again, it's the plague? The plague is coming again!"

When Qi heard the news, she was so scared that she covered her chest.

The courtyard, which was bustling just a moment ago, was now so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The younger children didn't know what was going on, but they could tell from the adults' expressions that nothing good was going to happen.

Seeing this, Song An Ning repeated what she had just said to Grandma, asking Song Erhe to distribute the medicine as soon as possible and for the villagers to stay at home and not gather together unless necessary.

"Don't worry, An Ning. I'll do it right away. Nothing can happen to anyone in Banyue Village!"

Song Erhe clenched his fists, looked at the two large baskets of medicine in front of him, and sighed.

"Aning, you should also be careful. It's a mess outside, so it's better not to go out as much as possible.

"Big brother, second brother, follow me, let's distribute medicine to the villagers."

Song Feng wanted to help and went with them, but was also driven back home by Song Erhe.

His nephew has suffered a lot and finally returned home, so he can't let anything happen to him at this time.

After saying this, he was ready to go out without delay. When he reached the door, he remembered:

So much medicine would definitely cost a lot of money. Mr. Pan was concerned about the villagers, but Banyue Village couldn't take advantage of them.

"Aning, I'll distribute the medicine first.

After this is over, we will give Mr. Pan the money for his medicine."

"I've already given it to you. Mr. Pan is a man of integrity and cares deeply for the people. He set the price of the medicine very low."

"The old man has the world in his heart, which is something we cannot compare to."

Song Erhe admired Old Man Pan very much. No wonder he could become the master of Yaowang Valley. He was much better than those officials in the town.

After returning from his second grandfather's house, Song Anning sat bored next to Wang Ying'er, with his chin propped up and staring blankly.

"Oh... can't you stay at home anymore?

If you want to go out, you can pretend you didn’t see me.”

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. She knows what her daughter is thinking.

Although she was a village woman with little skills or knowledge, she understood that as Mr. Pan's apprentice, her daughter could not just hide at home in times of crisis.

Being timid and fearful will not allow you to accomplish great things, nor will you be able to convince others.

Mr. Pan was able to save the lives of so many people, so he will definitely be able to protect his apprentice.

And when she saw Song An Ning's miserable look, she knew that the girl was just trying to make an excuse to go out.

Sure enough, when she said this, Song An Ning immediately stood up from the small stool, her eyes shining, a typical bright and beautiful girl.

"I'll be fine. Even if I go to town, I'll take medicine in advance and cover my face with thick gauze.

So...I ran away?"
