Everyone went down the mountain and returned to the village, and as soon as they entered the village, many villagers were startled. They looked at Aunt Gui and Hongdou in disbelief, and even more wondered if they were humans or ghosts.

Aunt Lin explained loudly on the side, and the villagers changed their eyes one by one, from disbelief to fear, and from fear to hope.

"Aunt Gui, it's good that you're okay. ”

This is the selfishness and hypocrisy of human nature. One moment you can drive others out of the village with righteous words, and the next second you can greet them as if you were welcoming your family.

After all, Aunt Gui is old there, and she is used to this. She smiled and said a few words of thanks, then walked directly towards the village chief's house.

Aunt Gui is the only doctor in the village, and she thought that she would die on the mountain if she contracted smallpox, and the village chief and Ximei girl would not be able to survive. didn't expect her to come back safe and sound, and the red bean girl also looked alive, and it seemed to be completely fine.

The villagers suddenly seemed to see hope, and when they saw Aunt Gui walking in the direction of the village chief's house, they knew that she was probably going to treat them. I couldn't help but follow one by one, but in the end, I was afraid of being infected, so I stopped at the door of the village chief's house and looked inside.

For the sake of safety, Aunt Lin and Li Yunlan were also turned away. Shen San Wang Ye was fearless, and he was about to follow up with his steps, but Mu Yan stretched out his hand to stop him and did not allow him to enter.

"Both Aunt Gui and Red Bean have contracted smallpox and will not be infected again. I've dyed it too, and I'm not afraid of it either, but you're different. So, you and Master Li just stay here and wait. ”

Shen Li didn't have time to refute, so he saw Mu Yan leave him and turn around and enter the house by himself. He was stunned and thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out when Mu Yan was infected with smallpox?

The village chief and Ximei were both infected with smallpox, and all the maids in the family ran out overnight. The villagers did not dare to approach, and they could not stand their conscience, so they finally locked their father and daughter in their rooms, and brought them three meals a day and put them at the door.

Aunt Gui first went to the village chief's room, and when the door was opened, she saw the village chief lying on the ground motionless. Aunt Gui hurriedly stepped forward to investigate, and only after finding that she was still breathing, she was slightly relieved.

The villager who led them in didn't dare to enter the house, so Aunt Gui had to carry the village chief to bed with Hongdou and Mu Yan. Aunt Gui sat on the edge of the bed and checked his pulse, and then probed his body temperature, and found that he was no different from Hongdou when he was seriously ill. Immediately stood up and took out a Lin Feng Herb, and let the red beans be used for decoction.

After reading the village chief, they went to Ximei's room again. When she opened the door, she was sitting on a stool in the center of the room with her back to them. When everyone saw this, they were very relieved, thinking that Ximei's condition was better, not as serious as her father's. But when they entered the house, Ximei suddenly turned around.

Hongdou screamed almost instantly, and the villager outside the door staggered back several steps in fright before he could barely stand still. Mu Yan gasped, and a doctor like Aunt Gui, who was used to seeing all kinds of diseases, trembled coldly.

There is no other reason, it is Ximei's small face, which is still quite delicate, is now covered with chickenpox. She seemed to be ugly and itchy, and scratched several places with her hands. Mu Yan has relatives in his heart, and he can't help but sigh. Even if this person is cured, I am afraid that this face will be ruined.

"Red beans, red beans!"

Ximei glanced at everyone, and finally fixed her eyes on Hongdou's body. She seemed very happy to see the red bean, and grinned happily. He got up and rushed forward and grabbed Red Bean's arm, his face full of hideousness.

"You're dead, aren't you? You're cursing me, aren't you? So you're happy to come and see me laugh and see me like this, aren't you!?"

"No, it's not. I ......"

Hongdou was a little flustered and a little scared, but seeing Ximei's appearance, he really couldn't bear to push her away.

"Look at you! If you die, you're also an ugly girl! But why are those two outsiders protecting you, the children in the school like you, and Li Yunlan loves you! Even if you are infected with smallpox and your mother is driven to the back mountain, although the people in the village are afraid, they still can't help but still worry about your mother and daughter. I don't understand, what's so good about you, how am I inferior to you?"

Seeing Ximei's somewhat crazy appearance, Hongdou helped her and whispered comfortingly: "Ximei, it's okay." Don't be like that, you're better than me everywhere, really. You sit down obediently and let my mother take a good look at you. ”

Ximei looked up at Hongdou's words, and when she saw Aunt Gui, she smiled again.

"Aunt Gui, are you dead too? You still can't bear the red bean, so you went with her?"

Saying this, she saw Mu Yan standing next to Aunt Gui again, and couldn't help but smile even more.

"Haha! And you, still you! You're dead, you're all dead!"

Wrong!

The smile stopped abruptly, Ximei looked around, and after not seeing Shen Li and Li Yunlan, she pushed the red bean away suddenly, her eyes full of excitement.

"Ah San Gongzi and Brother Yunlan are not here. They're not dead! Ha, they're not dead! I'm going to find them, I'm going to find them!"

As soon as the words fell, Ximei suddenly rushed out of the door. Aunt Gui and Hongdou naturally wouldn't let her run around, and reached out to stop her together, and Mu Yan also came up to appease her, trying to make her stop a little. But Ximei didn't know where she got the strength, but she broke free from the shackles of the three of them and ran straight to the door.

The hideous appearance of her face frightened the villagers at the door who retreated again and again, and they didn't dare to stop them at all. Aunt Gui is so anxious that she will be allowed to run out, and things will be in trouble.

In desperation, a black shadow appeared, blocking Ximei's way. She looked up, the corners of her mouth opened and she was just about to say something, when she saw someone raise her hand and slash it, and the action was done in one go without hesitation. She felt a pain in the back of her neck, and then she lost consciousness.

It just so happened that Aunt Gui and Hongdou rushed over and helped the fallen Ximei. Mu Yan stepped forward and pursed his lips, and gave a thumbs up to the visitor, signaling that he was doing a good job!

The third brother's expression was faint, his hands were on his chest and his back to the door, with a cool look of "what can you do without me". Mu Yan smiled, stretched out his hands and hugged him and said, "I'll go inside to see the situation, you just wait here." ”

Shen Li also saw Ximei's situation just now, nodded and asked her to be careful. Mu Yan answered, turned around and walked into the house.

At this time, Aunt Gui and Hongdou had already carried Ximei to the bed, and after Aunt Gui took the pulse, she shook her head and sighed again and again.

"Auntie, is the situation not optimistic?"

The little black girl is kind and innocent, no matter how much cynicism and white eyes she has received from Ximei before, seeing her like this now, she still can't help but worry about her.

"Well, I heard Aunt Lin describe it before, and the Ximei girl seems to have a heart to hide it since she became ill, so she has not been taken care of well. Later, after being discovered by the village chief, the father and daughter hid it from the villagers together. In this way, she has actually been living a life of worry and fear, which is why she is like this. Now the condition is very serious, and his life is almost hanging by a thread. ”
