Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

Around the hour of You, Li Gui's men arrived at Hu County first. They led a team of people into the city, so large that the guards at the city gate immediately sent someone to inform Tian Yuheng. "Sir, someone has delivered medicinal herbs and has just entered the city."

Tian Yuheng was helping to boil medicine in the courtyard of the quarantine area. More than half of the runners in the county government were sick, and there was a shortage of manpower. When he heard that someone was delivering medicinal materials, he stood up happily and said, "Are they coming over? Let me go and greet them."

Tian Yuheng met Li Gui and others on the way. He immediately stepped forward and said, "Thank you for helping Hu County. On behalf of the people of Hu County, I would like to pay my respects to you."

Tian Yuheng was about to bow down, but Li Gui was shocked and immediately stepped forward to support him, "Second Young Master, no, I am Uncle Fu's subordinate, I can't accept such a big gift from you, these herbs were bought by the eldest young master, I am just running errands."

"Is that you, big brother? I didn't expect that you would still know our situation even when the city was closed and send us the herbs in time. Go back and thank him for me."

"It's the second young master."

After a while, Tian Yuheng assisted Li Gui and others in delivering this batch of medicinal materials to several major isolation areas. The isolation area in Dongcheng had the most patients because it was above the water source and was the most seriously polluted. There were also many poor people in this area. Doctor Qi brought several doctors to see patients here. When they heard that new medicinal materials had been delivered, they came to check whether the needed medicinal materials were all suitable for the symptoms. They were still happy when suddenly a doctor came to report that one of the patients had started to have a high fever again and something was wrong.

Doctor Qi came over and checked several patients with high fever. He frowned and said, "Is it really smallpox, Doctor Qi?" Doctor Li knew it was smallpox, but he hoped it wasn't. He was in his early 30s and was considered young among these old doctors, but he had experienced smallpox several times, and many people died each time. Some people were vaccinated with smallpox and were fine, but most people would still be infected again. Only a few people were fine after being infected with smallpox.

Doctor Qi just nodded silently, but asked several other doctors to check and confirm again, and finally concluded that it was smallpox. Everyone was in despair. Doctor Qi had been busy all night and had only rested for 2 hours today. He couldn't help but cry out for the people of Hu County, "Cholera can still be controlled, but this smallpox is going to kill the people of Hu County."

When everyone was grieving, Tian Yuheng, who had just finished processing the herbs, came over. Seeing the gloomy atmosphere, he felt something was wrong and immediately went up to ask Doctor Qi, "Doctor Qi, what's wrong with you? It's a good thing that new herbs have arrived. Why do you all look so worried?"

"Oh, we found that some patients were infected with smallpox." Doctor Qi replied helplessly.

"Well, it seems that Doctor Ge has found a way to cure smallpox. Today they also asked me to go back and get the vaccine to prevent smallpox."

"Really, is it true?" Several doctors present couldn't help but ask in surprise when they heard that Dr. Ge had found a treatment prescription.

"Really, it's just that Dr. Ge was treating my father a few days ago and was busy last night, so I didn't have time to invite him over today."

"Then Old Ge should have rested well by now. Is he still in your Tian Mansion?"

"Yes."

"Then let's go. You take me to your Tian Mansion, and I'll go meet him. He actually hid this shocking event and didn't tell us. I want to go talk to him." Doctor Qi was about to take Tian Yuheng to find Doctor Ge, "And you kid, why didn't you tell us earlier? You made us worry for nothing."

"Yes, yes, Doctor Qi is right. I'll take you there."

"You doctors, don't go over and join in the fun. Just stay here and watch. We'll re-divide the areas for the patients." Doctor Qi stopped the other doctors immediately when he saw that they wanted to follow suit.

"Yes, Doctor Qi." The doctors had no choice but to obey.

When they arrived at the Tian residence, Tian Yuheng had only come back this morning to rest for a while and didn't know that Xu was ill. When the servants told him that Doctor Ge was treating Xu, he hurriedly asked the servants to take him and Doctor Qi to find her. Tian Yuze and his friends, as well as Aunt Liu, were also there.

When he entered the room, Doctor Ge had just finished vaccinating Xu. Tian Yuheng stepped forward quickly and said, "Master Ge, how is my mother?"

Doctor Ge looked up when he heard the voice and saw the person coming. "It's okay. I have already vaccinated my wife. There shouldn't be any problem. Have a good rest these few days and observe for a few more days." Then he teased Doctor Qi beside Tian Yuheng, "Old Qi, why are you coming to me instead of working hard in the quarantine area?"

When Tian Yuheng saw the two doctors confronting each other, he quietly walked over to Xu to check on her.

Doctor Qi was not to be outdone, "Old man Ge, you have such a good method to cure smallpox but you didn't tell us. We won't take the credit from you. This is such a great thing. Don't miss this great opportunity to become famous."

"I don't need to be famous. I just want to treat patients. I still need to observe and see a few more patients first."

"Then can we healthy people also take turns to plant some, so that you can have more cases."

"Indeed, I am about to plant it on all of you now. After all, they are all at risk of infection."

"Then count me in as well. Also, we found smallpox symptoms in the quarantine center today. They are all infected with cholera and smallpox. The situation is not good. I am worried that the situation will get worse and difficult to control. I want you to vaccinate them as well."

"Okay, just don't look for any more people with cowpox here."

At this time, Tian Xing'er interrupted and said, "Don't worry, Doctor Ge, I will find someone in this area."

"Okay, thank you Miss Tian. Old Qi, please wait here while I give them the smallpox vaccine first, and then I'll give you the vaccine."

"That's a good feeling."

After Doctor Ge vaccinated Tian Xing'er and a few others against cowpox, Tian Xing'er took his men to look for people with cowpox. In addition, they also learned from Sister Li which families had dairy cows and cowpox, which reduced their work a lot.

That night, Tian Xing'er and his team sent a few people in, but they found that more and more people were infected, and there were not enough people with cowpox. At night, several people became seriously ill and died directly. The atmosphere in the quarantine center became more and more depressing. The breath of death was pervasive, and this death seemed to be contagious, taking more people away. The yamen runners were too busy to bury them. This was the worst and heaviest night since the plague.

At this time, He Tongpan's troops were setting out from the prefectural city. The city gates were opened for the first time after being closed for a long time. There was no one on the street at night. Everyone heard the movement of the large group of people, but this time no one wanted to leave the city. During the period when the city gates were closed, a lot of news spread in the city. Everyone knew that many surrounding counties were infected with the plague. Those students who came to participate in the Lotus Leaf Poetry Meeting were grateful to the prefect. If it weren't for this poetry meeting, they might not have saved their lives.

In addition to He Tongpan, the prefect also sent another group of people to rescue other counties. They left before He Tongpan's people. Because Tian Yuyu insisted on leaving, Chen Da had to accompany him and mix into the transportation labor team.
