The morning light broke through the clouds, and the torrential rain that lasted for more than half a month finally stopped. The waterlogging was receding at a speed visible to the naked eye. The exposed ground was all mud, and the air exuded a rotten smell.

The city, which had been soaked for several days by floods carrying all kinds of dead things, ushered in a new crisis.

Since last night, many people in the city have begun to show symptoms of vomiting and fever. In order to protect healthy people to the maximum extent, Xu Mingqing immediately chose high ground to establish an isolation area - the East District.

The government also issued an official document that night: all people with symptoms will be moved to the East District, and the government will be responsible for treatment. Anyone who deliberately conceals his or her condition will be executed immediately.

As soon as the official document was issued, thousands of people began to move towards the East District.

The county government issued a convening order early in the morning, asking the doctors who passed the examination to go to the Eastern District for consultation with the imperial doctors sent to support the hospital, and strive to write down the most suitable prescription for Nanjun's epidemic elimination in the shortest possible time.

Xu Mingyue covered her face with three layers of white cloth, and soaked her hands in potion repeatedly before starting to put some personal belongings into her backpack and prepared to walk towards the gathering place.

"Knock knock knock." There was a knock on the door, followed closely by Huba's voice announcing his home: "Girl, my subordinate Huba wants to see you."

Xu Mingyue opened the door, and standing straight in front of her were three men who were at least a head taller than her.

After stepping back slightly and letting the person in first, Xu Mingyue poured a cup of tea for Xu Minggang herself rather politely.

Out of the corner of his eye, he frequently glanced at the man standing behind Xu Minglang, who was wearing a servant uniform and a scarf covering his mouth and nose.

The two looked at each other, and after a closer look, Xu Mingyue recognized this person through her narrow auspicious eyes: "Mr. Chen?"

Chen Qing's eyebrows curved a little for a moment, and he smiled and held his hands towards Xu Mingyue: "Miss Xu, I'm here."

Xu Mingliang, who was overjoyed that Xu Mingyue poured tea for him with her own hands, felt sour in his heart after listening to these questions and answers, and soon turned into resentment.

The decision that was discussed with Xu Mingqing in advance was immediately fed into the dog's belly: "Yaoyao, go home with your second brother."

Looking between Chen Qing and Xu Mingliang, Xu Mingyue immediately knew who Chen Qing was, and her second brother didn't really want to take her away.

With a plan in mind, Xu Mingyue took out two white scarves from her backpack and handed them to Xu Minglang and Huba, saying:

"Deshui has not experienced such a big flood in ten years. The cure for this plague has not yet been released. Your status is important now. If you contract the disease, it will be difficult. You must cover your mouth and nose every day when you go out."

"Do you also know the danger?" Xu Minggang took the white cloth from Xu Mingyue's hand and covered his mouth and nose like Xu Mingyue did: "Brother knows that I didn't pick you up, and even let you go to Deshui. Last night, I let you go I knelt all night."

Xu Mingyue is a doctor, how can she not tell whether he is kneeling or not?

His eyes rolled, and his words were filled with anger: "Brother, it's true, knowing that this matter is my fault, you actually punished my most handsome second brother indiscriminately."

"Is it possible that I'm jealous that my second brother is younger than him, good-looking, and that I like him more?"

"We are all a family, and we shouldn't favor one over the other, but my second brother has naturally put the most thought into me over the years, and I should be nice to my second brother."

In the past, the whole family would think of ways to coax Xu Mingyue, but Xu Minggang was the first one to be coaxed by his sister.

Xu Minglang was naturally very helpful. His peach-blossom eyes that resembled those of Mr. Lin raised a smile, looking like he was about to be coaxed.

Xu Mingyue aimed at the opportunity, pulled up Xu Mingliang's sleeve and shook it gently: "Second brother, don't worry, wait until I write down the prescription for treating the epidemic. Once I confirm that the prescription is effective, I will come out of the East District. I will definitely replace him at that time. You can talk to my brother and let him never punish you again."

Xu Mingliang felt relieved. Looking at the sun outside the window, he knew that it was almost time for the doctors to gather.

It is inherently difficult for a woman to practice medicine. If the first meeting is delayed, unnecessary trouble may occur.

He stood up from the stool, put his hands on Xu Mingyue's shoulders, and patted him gently: "Yaoyao, before coming here, what the second brother wanted was to tie you back even if he was tied up."

"But what the eldest brother told me is right. Yaoyao must walk his own path on his own, and the second brother must also learn to let go."

"If I can save one more of my people, and if they unfortunately encounter danger in the future, even God will pay more attention to my family."

"In the eyes of second brother, human life also has weight. No one's life in this world can compare to Yaoyao's, so no matter what happens, Yaoyao must protect himself first. Can you do it?"

Xu Mingyue obediently raised her head and looked at Xu Mingliang, with a firm smile in her bright fox eyes: "Second brother, don't worry, I am the little medicine king. A small plague will definitely not be able to do anything to me."

With a long sigh of relief, Xu Minglang tried his best to suppress the thought of taking Xu Mingyue home and pointed at Chen Qing behind him.

"When you enter the East District, no one will be able to get out while the cure for the epidemic is still uncertain. Tiantian is a woman. If the incident suddenly happens, I may not be able to protect you. Brother has arranged for you a medicine boy who is good at fists and kicks to protect you. Holding you."

Xu Mingyue tilted her head and looked at Chen Qing, and asked curiously: "Are you from my brother?"

Xu Minglang snorted and looked at Chen Qing, looking at everything that didn't please him: "Brother, I can't afford him."

Xu Mingyue hesitated for a moment, and the softness of her eyes was replaced by caution.

A man whom Xu Mingqing couldn't do anything about deigned to accompany her on an adventure in the East District, and this man still had a sweetheart.

Thinking of Xie Chongan's use of her in her previous life, Xu Mingyue spoke again, her tone already quite serious:

"Mr. Chen, I have a fiancé in the capital. I learned this medical skill to heal his body. I will only marry him in this life, do you know?"

The long and narrow phoenix eyes were stained by the exploding starlight, and every inch of exposed skin began to glow with a light red color. Every strand of hair that shook revealed the turbulence in Chen Qing's heart.

His voice was low and hoarse, filled with care and peace of mind: "I didn't know before, but now I know."

Xu Mingyue couldn't understand how Chen Qing felt like she was being soaked in a honey jar. Her words were clearly meant to draw a clear line between her and Chen Qing. How could she look at Chen Qing's reaction, as if she was in love with someone and finally made it? Like a family member?

Thinking that Chen Qing was the person who had surpassed her two elder brothers, and the East District she was about to enter was changing rapidly, it would be safer to have someone with superior martial arts by her side.

Xu Mingyue finally chose to ignore Chen Qing's strange appearance.

Xu Minglang didn't like hearing what Xu Mingyue said. He first glared at Chen Qing, then looked at Xu Mingyue and said, "Yaoyao, the matter between you and Xie Qingyao has not been finalized yet, and there is nothing that can be done."

"When I see a better-looking one in the future, my second brother will replace him for you."
