Chapter 213: They All Misunderstood
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the medicinal materials were finally settled, and the people sent out by Mrs. Yuan finally brought back three carts of medicinal materials.
After having the medicine, everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed, and then the whole courtyard was filled with a strong smell of medicine.
No one finds it pungent because it represents hope.
Pots and pots of medicine were sent from the courtyard to each patient's home.
At the same time, Wei Ruo also sent a letter to Mrs. Yuan again, asking the government to send people to investigate and count the situation of the patients from house to house to ensure that no patient was missed.
Because this disease is contagious, if you miss one, you may have endless problems in the future.
Thankfully, due to heavy snow closures and fears of the plague, the vast majority of the people in the city chose to stay closed, thus largely avoiding the large-scale spread of the plague during this time.
In addition, all the dead patients, the government should also send people to deal with them in a unified manner, and the corpses, clothes and some personal items worn by the patients before their deaths need to be burned in time, and the ashes can be returned to the family after burning.
After receiving Wei Ruo's letter, Mrs. Yuan immediately informed her husband Yuan Zhengqin and arranged the matter.
###
The tenth day of the first month.
Wei Ruo still did not return to the school captain's mansion.
The Yun family can't tolerate it anymore at the moment, there is a limit to everything, even if they are invited by nobles to go to their homes for the New Year, they should have a sense of proportion, where is there no news from the New Year to the tenth day of the first month.
So the Yun family planned to send Jing Hu to Yuan's house to inquire about the situation.
Wei Yichen, who learned of this, asked for orders again to pick up Wei Ruo back to his house in person.
"Mother, Yuan's Mansion is no better than other people's homes, for the sake of prudence, it is better for the child to go in person."
Sending someone to the door to ask for someone, in case the matter is not handled well, it will not leave a bad impression on the Yuan family.
The other party is in a high position, and they are in a low position, even in a special period, there should still be respect, and the etiquette must not be lost.
Yun thought about it for a while, and thought that the situation outside had improved in the past few days, and many people had begun to go out.
Then he said, "Then go straight and go straight back, do not linger on the road, go out in a carriage, and do not ride or walk, so as not to come into contact with people."
"The child knows."
Wei Yichen immediately went out and rode in the carriage according to the meaning of the Yun family.
And the little guy driving in front of him also covered half of his face with a face towel, this is the method passed out by the government office, saying that it can avoid being infected with the plague, and everyone doesn't know what the reason is, but there is definitely nothing wrong with doing it.
The carriage arrived at the side gate of Yuan's mansion, and after Wei Yichen and the guards guarding the door explained their intentions, the guards asked Wei Jin to wait as well.
After a while, when the guards returned, they brought back a message from Madame Yuan.
"Young Master Wei, I'm sorry, my wife said that she was negligent, and she was so busy that she forgot to inform the people in the house, in fact, Miss Wei has been helping my wife deal with the plague in the mansion these days, and now because the plague is not good, the people of Taizhou Mansion are still inseparable from Miss Wei, so they can't go back with Young Master Wei."
"You mean, my eldest sister is helping with the plague in the house these days?" Wei Yichen looked surprised. ….
"Yes, Miss Wei is arranging all the big and small things related to the plague in the city, and now this plague can control Miss Wei so quickly, which accounts for a lot of credit."
Listening to the guard's words, Wei Yichen couldn't help but be shocked.
He never expected that his eldest sister would not be at home these days because of this! They all misunderstood the big sister!
Wei Yichen was still in shock, and the guard continued: "My wife also asked the little one to pass the word to Young Master Wei, I hope that Young Master Wei will not misunderstand, it is the negligence of my wife who failed to inform the Wei family in the past few days, and Miss Wei is so busy that she doesn't even have time to sleep, she really can't take care of these things, and she didn't mean not to inform the people of the Wei Mansion."
"Today, it is inconvenient for my wife and Miss Wei to come out to see Young Master Wei, especially Miss Wei, who has been working with many patients in order to better arrange her work these days
If you have been in contact, you may be infected at any time. So she will no longer be able to come into contact with outsiders until the plague is completely eliminated."
Wei Yichen was deeply touched and said, "I know, if it's convenient, please bring a message to my eldest sister, so that she can rest assured that everything is fine at home." Please take care of herself, too."
"The little one will bring Young Master Wei's words to Madame." The guard replied.
After Wei Yichen returned to the school captain's mansion, he went to see the Yun family.
At this time, Wei Qingwan was also on the Yun family's side, Wei Ruo didn't even return home during the Chinese New Year, but Wei Qingwan was always by her side, which made the difference between the two daughters even greater for the Yun family.
"Ruo'er brought it back?" Seeing Wei Yichen, Yun asked hurriedly.
"Nope." Wei Yichen replied.
"What? She doesn't plan to come back yet? Is it really her home in Yuan's Mansion?" The Yun clan's anger suddenly came up.
Wei Qingwan hurriedly comforted: "Mother, don't be angry, you have been overworking these days, your body is already losing, and it is not good for you to be angry."
Yun Shi said angrily: "If Ruo'er had half of you's intimacy, I wouldn't be angry!"
Wei Yichen hurriedly explained, "Mother, the eldest sister is not a guest at the Yuan family, but is running around for the plague! Now the big sister is in charge of all the arrangements related to the plague in the city, and in order to help everyone, the big sister even inevitably comes into contact with the sick person, so she can't go home!"
"What did you say?" Yun's eyes widened in surprise.
Wei Qingwan on the side also showed an expression of disbelief.
"The people of the Yuan Mansion told me on behalf of Mrs. Yuan that since the Chinese New Year's Eve, the eldest sister has been busy with the plague, and she has hardly slept well in order to save the eldest sister." Wei Yichen told the truth.
Yun still couldn't believe it, "Are you sure you're not mistaken? Ruo'er is so busy with such a big thing? Plagues are big deals! She's a girl's ......."
"This is what Madame Yuan sent to pass on, and there will be no mistake. If not, how could Mrs. Yuan attribute such a great credit to her eldest sister?" Wei Yichen said.
Controlling the plague is not a trivial matter, and it is also a great achievement to fall on Lord Yuan.
Hearing this, the Yun clan's anger just now immediately dissipated, and it was replaced by worry: "Then Ruo'er, will she be infected?"
"It's possible, my mother also knows that this is a plague, and it will be contagious if you touch it, and my eldest sister is risking her life to do things." Wei Yichen replied.
"Why did this kid run away to do such a dangerous thing without saying a word!" Yun was a little angry, but more worried.
Wei Qingwan was stunned for a moment and then asked Wei Yichen, "But why hasn't my sister contacted us for so many days?"
