“Madam Song, is the medicine over there ready? Master asked me to bring it over.”
The two of them were staring at each other when a young man hurried in.
Shen Yijia looked over and recognized that it was an apprentice beside the imperial physician. She slapped her forehead and ignored Xuanyuan Ye. She turned around to look at the medicine she had brewed.
Although they had all contracted the plague, every patient was infected to a different extent, so the amount of medicine they used was naturally different.
Seeing that it was about time, she poured out the medicinal juice from more than ten clay pots and handed them to the young man. “Alright, take them away.”
“Thank you, Madam Song.” The young man left with the medicine.
Shen Yijia refilled the medicine jar.
“Madam Song, let me help you.” Auntie Liu leaned over. Without waiting for Shen Yijia to speak, she brought a ladle to help her add water.
Shen Yijia glanced at her but did not refuse.
Among the people who helped brew the medicine here, Auntie Liu was the most optimistic. She seemed to have endless things to say every day.
Hearing her chattering about the Eight Trigrams, the haze in everyone’s hearts seemed to dissipate a little.
However, Shen Yijia clearly saw her hiding at the side and secretly wiping her tears a few times.
Only after listening to the others’ conversation did she know that Auntie Liu’s husband and son had been infected with the plague and entered the quarantine area.
It was unknown if she was lucky or unlucky. Her sister-in-law had introduced a marriage to her son a while ago. A few days after the plague spread, she happened to return to her mother’s house to send a thank-you gift. She was not in Phoenix City and happened to return before the city was sealed.
“Madam Song, you just got married to Lord Song, right? Look at how nervous he is about you.”
Song Jingchen came to the pharmacy to see Shen Yijia once. Actually, the two of them had only spoken a few words before going back to work. However, in the eyes of others, they had a good relationship.
Shen Yijia shook her head. “It’s been almost three years.”
Auntie Liu sized Shen Yijia up, as if she did not expect her to get married so early. “Then you have children, right?”
Shen Yijia added two pieces of charcoal to each furnace. When she heard this, she paused. “No.”
Auntie Liu said in disbelief, “She didn’t have a child for three years.”
“Then you have to be careful. Lord Song is young and handsome.” As if she felt that it was inappropriate to say this, she changed the topic and said, “I have a prescription. Do you want to try it? I guarantee that you’ll get a child after eating it a few times.”
Shen Yijia did not think so when no one mentioned it. She also found it strange when someone mentioned it. She remembered that An Dong’s wife was pregnant within a month when she was in Xiagou Village.
Just as she was about to ask about the prescription, a soldier came in and said that something had been sent over. The Third Prince asked him to ask Shen Yijia to help verify it.
The verification was mainly to see if the quantity of medicinal herbs was right. If it was missing, they could get the people outside the city to make up for it in time.
This was not difficult. It just needed someone who knew the medicinal herbs to do it.
However, the others were all taking care of the patients in the quarantine area and could not leave. Xuanyuan Ziming could only look for Shen Yijia, who had learned half a thing or two about medicine.
“What about my medicinal furnaces?”
“Madam Song, go ahead. I’ll watch over it for you,” a middle-aged man stood up and said.
Shen Yijia had seen the middle-aged man a few times. He always sat alone in the corner guarding the stove and did not talk to anyone. However, he would stand up and help anyone.
Auntie Liu and the other women also said that they would help watch over it and told her not to worry.
Shen Yijia thanked him and left with the soldiers.
Seeing her leave just like that, Xuanyuan Ye’s eyes turned red with anger. This scene was very similar to how everyone had said that they would help her look after the furnace.
Especially since Shen Yijia had exposed her tricks in public. She always felt that others looked at her with a hidden meaning.
She did not dare to really leave a wound on her hand because she was afraid that she would catch the plague. Who would have thought that Shen Yijia would be so persistent?
Feeling embarrassed, Xuanyuan Ye did not want to stay in this godforsaken place anymore. She stood up and walked out.
Wounds, plague…
Something flashed across her mind. Before she could grab something, she slipped and fell to the side uncontrollably.
“Princess!”
Bai Zhi exclaimed and pounced over without thinking.
Bang! The master and servant fell into a mess. Everyone was shocked by this change and quickly went over to help the two of them up.
Fortunately, with Bai Zhi as a cushion, Xuanyuan Ye was not injured. It was just that Bai Zhi’s palm scraped a little when she pounced over.
“Who splashed water on the ground?” Auntie Liu pointed at a water stain on the ground and asked.
This was why Xuanyuan Ye slipped.
Everyone looked at each other. There was a well beside them. It was normal for water to spill accidentally when they were fetching water.
Auntie Liu also thought of this after asking.
“Miss Bai Zhi is injured. Let’s quickly find a doctor to treat her,” the middle-aged man suddenly said.
“Yes, yes, yes. We can’t delay this.”
When Shen Yijia returned, she did not see Xuanyuan Ye. After asking, she found out that Bai Zhi was injured.
“Fortunately, Miss Bai Zhi blocked it for the princess. Otherwise, the princess would have been the one injured.” Auntie Liu sighed. “I’ll find a cloth to wipe the water over there. It won’t be good if someone slips again.”
With that, she went to look for a cloth anxiously.
Shen Yijia frowned. She had just gone to get water before leaving, but she did not see any water on the ground.
Xuanyuan Ye was so afraid of death. It was impossible for her to splash it herself and pretend to fall.
Shen Yijia felt that this was unlikely.
However, because of this matter, Shen Yijia did not cause trouble for Xuanyuan Ye the next day. It was mainly because she felt that it was boring. Unexpectedly, the other party sent herself up instead of her.
‘You did it, right?” Xuanyuan Ye stood in front of her and looked at her coldly. She was no longer pretending.
Shen Yijia was puzzled. ‘What did I do now?”
“You splashed the pool of water on the ground, didn’t you? I asked. You were the last to go over and get water before I fell.”
Shen Yijia was so angry that she wanted to laugh. When something happened to the scumbag, this person refused to let go of her. Now, she was doing it again.
She looked at Xuanyuan Ye as if she was looking at a fool, “Do you think I have the ability to predict the future? I calculated that you would pass by, so I splashed water in advance and waited for you to fall?”
Xuanyuan Ye was speechless.
“You think too highly of yourself. If I wanted to deal with you, why would I need to go through so much trouble?”
“Haven’t I always been looking for trouble with you openly?” she thought.
Xuanyuan Ye choked.
That seemed to be the case.
However…
“Bai Zhi is sick,” Xuanyuan Ye roared with red eyes.
Bai Zhi had a high fever last night and was sent to the quarantine area early this morning.
Shen Yijia paused and moved her left hand. “Since she’s sick, go and take care of her. Why are you looking for me? Isn’t she injured because of you?”
She still had to deliver the medicine. She did not want to waste time with Xuanyuan Ye here. With that, she walked around her and left.
Xuanyuan Ye was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She stared at Shen Yijia’s back, wishing she could poke a hole in her.
It was not until Shen Yijia disappeared around the corner that she retracted her gaze. She was about to check on Bai Zhi when two men suddenly appeared and blocked her way.
Because more and more people had been infected recently, Ji Luo made a few medicine bags that she carried with her at all times. Song Jingchen didn’t go home last night, so Shen Yijia prepared to send them to him.
Seeing her come, Song Jingchen was stunned and said anxiously, “Why are you here?”
“You didn’t go home yesterday.” Shen Yijia glanced at the pile of corpses behind him. Song Jingchen subconsciously moved to block her vision.
Actually, Shen Yijia had seen rotten corpses several times in the past few days and was already numb to them.
However, Song Jingchen didn’t know that she cooked medicine in the pharmacy every day.
“Let’s leave this place first.” With that, he instructed Thirty Thousand. He took off a glove and pulled Shen Yijia’s sleeve with two fingers.
Shen Yijia glanced at the corner of his sleeve and grabbed it speechlessly.
Song Jingchen was shocked. He wanted to shake off her hand, but her grip tightened.
“Stop, I haven’t cleaned my hands yet.”
“Didn’t you wear gloves just now? Besides…” Shen Yijia tilted her head and whispered to him, “I think I’m immune to this plague.”
Song Jingchen stopped in his tracks and looked around. Noticing that the surrounding soldiers were looking at them, he quickened his pace and left with Shen Yijia.
He only stopped when there was no one around. He frowned and said, “Mother said that?”
Shen Yijia shook her head and extended her left hand to show him. There was a scab the length of a finger on her palm. It had probably just scabbed over and was still red around it.
Song Jingchen’s pupils constricted. “When did you get injured?”
At the mention of this, Shen Yijia still felt unlucky.. She puffed up her cheeks and said, “Didn’t I go to help check the herbs yesterday?”
