When Shi Yi thinks about Xianyu, someone always comes to disturb her.
Chapter 7 The Epidemic Is Coming
Mrs. Liu, who took care of Shi Yi's daily life, was also hired by Shopkeeper Lu. Mrs. Liu was a very straightforward person. After losing her husband at an early age, she struggled to survive with her four-year-old son, which shaped her bold and straightforward personality.
After spending the past few years with Shi Yi, Mrs. Liu has found that she is the best match for Shi Yi's appetite. Yes, that's right, appetite. Shi Yi likes to eat all kinds of strange food, and Mrs. Liu can make the taste that Shi Yi prefers after trying a few times.
Mrs. Liu liked Shiyi very much. She got this job just because the little girl loved to eat.
Shi Yi is a very good employer as he can also help her take care of her son.
Thinking back, Mrs. Liu was actually at the end of her rope, penniless, and her son was so sick that she couldn't even cry.
As long as her son could survive, she would be willing to sell herself into slavery, but Shi Yi did not force her, as if he did not care whether she was a slave or not.
But not becoming a slave was of great significance to her, especially to her son. Only if he was not a slave would he have hope for the future. Mrs. Liu was grateful to Shi Yi from the bottom of her heart.
In Shi Yi's opinion, she does not need to use a person's indenture to ensure loyalty to herself. Even betrayal by relatives cannot be completely avoided, let alone the practice of using a piece of paper to restrict behavior, which she disdains.
Besides, she just needs someone to take care of herself, so why ruin her future?
Normally, after Mrs. Liu prepared a meal, Shi Yi would ask her to eat with her son. Her son was still young and didn't know how to use chopsticks well, so he would spill food from time to time, but Shi Yi didn't show any disgust.
Isn't this the case with all children? Who hasn't experienced this?
When Mrs. Liu was tending the vegetable garden, she would put her son in the yard, and Shi Yi played with her son patiently. The villagers thought they were a family, and Shi Yi never took the initiative to explain, so Mrs. Liu acquiesced.
Liu Sao's son Goudan was skinny when he first came, but now he is plump and white, like a completely different person. Shi Yi treated Liu Sao kindly, and she was grateful and kept the house clean without any instructions from Shi Yi.
I do everything at home and outside. I go out for a while from time to time, and I always feel satisfied when I come back. This is probably the place that feels most like home.
Mrs. Liu never dared to look down on this young lady. She looked like a small person, but the head manager of the huge Jishiditang in the city wanted to bow down to her when he saw her.
She was not stupid and never asked any questions about the girl.
The girl was very kind to the villagers. Whenever someone in a family was sick and came to ask for herbs, she would never be stingy.
If there are villagers who want to learn how to collect herbs, the girl will not hide her knowledge and will teach them in a very straightforward manner. If they have some talent, she will even teach them simple preparation techniques so that the pharmacies will be more willing to buy their herbs.
The girl is very popular in the village because she provides a convenient way for villagers who want to earn income. The village head also takes good care of the girl.
The girl is a village treasure here! Mrs. Liu is proud of it.
After Lu Xiangsheng made a detour to purchase some medicinal materials, he returned to Jishiditang by carriage. It was almost dusk, and many people seeking medical treatment were still coming in and out of the entrance of Jishiditang.
Most of the patients were coughing in suppressed voices, and the line of people waiting to have their pulse taken and see a doctor stretched far to the end of the street on the right side of the door.
As soon as Shopkeeper Lu came back, he started to diagnose pulses and prescribe medicines. He was extremely excited while verifying the efficacy of the medicines. Because he was afraid of being misunderstood, he could only suppress the corners of his mouth that were about to smile.
Jishidiang has been suppressed for too long!
A few days later, the gate of Jishitang was almost broken by the crowds, as if all the sick people in the city had gathered here. In fact, people from nearby cities had already started to come to Jishitang to buy the "Quick Cough Pills", a magical medicine for cough.
The name of "Jishitang" became popular at a speed that was faster than what Manager Lu could have expected!
People seeking medicine came in droves, and Lu Xiangsheng was surprised at first, but now he was frightened! The nobles who came one after another were more noble than each other. Shopkeeper Lu finally realized that the situation was beyond his control.
When Lu Xiangsheng realized the crisis belatedly, he received a life-saving package sent by Shi Yi.
Shi Yi noticed the unusual characteristics of this epidemic and told Lu Xiangsheng his guess about the disease overnight. He also bound the prevention and treatment methods into two large volumes with different categories, as well as some emergency medicines and sent them to Jishidiang.
After reading Shi Yi's handwritten "Anti-epidemic Manual", Lu Xiangsheng was immediately filled with confidence.
All the connections of Jishidiang were put into action, and arrangements were made step by step according to the "epidemic prevention manual".
At the same time, this handwritten letter was quickly sent to the owner of Jishitang in Kyoto. Although the owner had probably given up on them and had not contacted them for many years, he could not care less at this critical moment.
If it is really as Shi Yi expected, this is an epidemic equivalent to the plague, then it is not something that an individual can interfere with, and it requires the intervention of the imperial court.
The person who could talk to the imperial court the fastest could only be the original owner of Jishidiang - the Sixth Prince's Mansion.
The epidemic is urgent and the news must be delivered to the court as quickly as possible. At the same time, this is also an opportunity for Jishidiang to regain a strong backer.
Lu Xiangsheng suppressed his uneasiness and seized the opportunity to act decisively.
Whether it can be successful depends on fate.
