solved a major hidden danger, in order to express his gratitude, Mr. Gu invited the prefect to a banquet in Qingfeng Building, and was fortunate to invite Jun Yonglun, a friend of the prefect, to accompany him. During the banquet, Jun Yonglun saw that his friend was worried, so he asked the reason.

Governor Yao put down his wine glass, sighed deeply, and said, "The youngest son in the family was diagnosed with pox, and Neiko and several maids who served were also sick. I invited many doctors, and they all said...... Alas! ”

Pox, to put it bluntly, is chickenpox or rash, which is a very small disease in modern times, and in ancient times when medicine was backward, it would kill people if they were not careful.

And the wife of the Yao Governor's Mansion only got a son after giving birth to four daughters in a row, so naturally the baby is abnormal. After her son fell ill, she took care of her clothes, and she had never had chickenpox, but she was accidentally infected.

Governor Yao and his wife are childhood sweethearts and have a deep relationship, even if she didn't give birth to a son, she never had the idea of taking a concubine. At this time, my son and daughter-in-law were sick, and they were so sick that they were about to turn their hair gray.

Jun Yonglun remembered that more than ten years ago, in a village near Yancheng, many adults and children died because of pox. Fortunately, the prefect of Yancheng at that time reacted quickly and quickly sealed off the village, so as not to let the epidemic spread.

"Sister-in-law, Mrs. Xu'er, are you okay now?" Jun Yonglun wanted to ask how the sick people in Yao's Mansion were placed, but after all, these words were a little hurtful, so he swallowed them back when they came to his mouth.

Fortunately, Governor Yao was not a foolish person, he sighed heavily again, and said, "Xu'er and her mother, as well as a few sick maids, were all sent to Zhuangzi to recuperate. Brother Jun, don't worry, I'm not a willful person. ”

In order to prevent the spread of pox, the Yao family's Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city has been banned from entering. Every day, the prefect of Yao would send people outside Zhuangzi to shout from afar to inquire about the condition of his wife and son. Their condition is not optimistic, especially Mrs. Yao, who has a high fever for three days, and she is about to be unable to survive......

Old man Gu Xiao Gu suddenly said, "Have you invited the doctor from Jimin Hall to take a look?" ”

"Jimin Hall?" The Bai family, an emerging family of pharmacists, has a shallow foundation compared to those century-old pharmacist families. At the beginning, Jimintang was run by other pharmacists and could only be opened in small towns. That is, after cooperating with the Gu family, it gradually developed. For people with a little status in Yancheng, the name "Jimintang" is a little unfamiliar.

Old Man Gu nodded and said, "The doctor in Jimin Hall has good medical skills, maybe he has a way." Old Man Gu didn't expect that his kind words would cause his granddaughter to put herself in danger and even contract pox......

It's a bit dramatic, and it's so natural. The prefect invited the doctor from Jimin Hall to visit him, and Bai Jingxuan and Bai Sanye naturally attached great importance to it. The doctor in Jimintang was helpless, so Bai Sanye cheekily approached the Gu family and asked for Gu Xiao's divine doctor who could cure the carbuncle.

After Gu Xiao invited the prefect to the banquet, he did not go home but went to the winery. When he came back from the winery in the evening, when he heard that his granddaughter had been invited by Bai Sanye of Jimin Hall to treat the patients of the prefect's family, he regretted it so much that he wanted to slap himself twice.

In the past, he invited his granddaughter to treat other incurable diseases, and he was not worried at all. It is good to be cured, but if it is not cured, as long as you do your best, you will have a clear conscience. But pox is an incurable disease after all, and it is extremely contagious. What if the granddaughter has a ...... How good is that?

Gu Ming, who came back from school, heard that her sister was invited to treat pox, and cold sweat broke out all of a sudden. He put down his bookcase, untied his horse from the backyard, and was about to rush out of the city.

Gu Xiao drank him: "Stop!" How did I teach you? Be calm in the face of things, only by keeping calm thinking and making accurate judgments can you survive in a desperate situation! ”

"That's my sister! Dear sister! How do I calm down? My sister has been weak since she was a child, and if she gets pox, there is only one way to die! Grandpa, have you forgotten that winter chill? The more Gu Ming spoke, the more worried she became, so anxious that tears almost flowed out, "No, I'm going to bring my sister back!" The life of the prefect's wife and children, isn't the life of his sister the life? ”

"Stop!" Gu Xiao's voice was full of coldness.

Gu Ming had already lost her mind and shouted at him: "Grandpa, this is related to my sister's life, no one can stop me!" ”

"Do you know where the prefect's Zhuangzi is? If you break out like a fly like this, you'll only lose more time. Let's go, go to the government office first, and let the prefect send someone to show us the way. Gu Xiao took out his mount from the backyard and walked out of the house quickly.

Gu Ming could see from his grandfather's hurried footsteps that his grandfather was not worried, but as he said, the more worried he was, the less he could panic. He wiped away a handful of tears, turned on his horse and followed his grandfather.

When they arrived at the mansion, the descendants of the Yao family said that the prefect accompanied the doctor to Zhuangzi. However, there were subordinates in the government who had sent things to Zhuangzi, and pointed out the way for the grandfather and grandson. The grandfather and grandson went out of the east gate, galloped all the way, and finally arrived at the Zhuangzi before the sun completely set.

However, at the entrance of the village, they were blocked by the officials of the government. Although the people who were sick in Zhuangzi were his loved ones, the prefect was not carried away by worry and family affection. In order to prevent the spread of the epidemic, the prefect of Yao had already sealed off his Zhuangzi. Yao Zhifu himself also stayed outside Zhuangzi, looking at Zhuangzi who was gradually shrouded in darkness in the night, his face full of sorrow and worry.

"Where's my sister?" Gu Ming looked at Zhuangzi, who seemed to be devoured by a giant beast in the night, and asked with trembling lips.

The prefect closed his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity: "Miss Gu has been in for two hours......

Gu Mingden collapsed: "My sister hasn't had pox, she will be infected!" No, I'm going to go in and get her out...... What are you doing, don't stop me, get out of here! ”

Gu Ming had practiced martial arts for more than a year, and he was extremely talented, and more than a dozen officials couldn't stop him. In the end, it was Gu Xiao who stepped forward to restrain him.

Looking at his grandson who was crying profusely, Gu Xiao couldn't bear to reprimand him, but gently persuaded him: "There are six or seven known patients in it, and your sister is busy enough." Don't make a mess of it! Your sister is a very good doctor, and if you don't have all the certainty, I believe she won't put her life in danger. ”

"That'...... Then I can't wait for news outside Zhuangzi? For his sister, Gu Ming has always believed in it, and when he heard that he gradually calmed down, he refused to leave in the wilderness. In March in the north, the wind at night was wrapped in cold, and Gu Ming, who was only wearing a thin jacket, shivered slightly. But he stood there stubbornly, no matter how much anyone persuaded him, he had no intention of leaving!
