Chapter 328 - 328 I Don’t Want to Take Medicine
Gu Qingxue sighed, “I didn’t expect Your Royal Highness to be so meticulous and thorough.”
Rong Zhan was in a good mood when he heard Gu Qingxue’s praise. “What do you plan to do next?”
“I’ll stay in the village temporarily and help the villagers with their treatment.” Gu Qingxue’s expression became grave when she mentioned the plague, “If I’m right, the villagers will follow my instructions and go back to check on their families this time. They will definitely find other infected people.”
The villagers of Tie Family Village had been pestering them because they did not know how terrifying the plague was.
However, they had witnessed the scene of the old village chief falling ill just now. It was like a warning bell in their hearts, which was enough to make them take it seriously.
Naturally, everything was a double-edged sword. Once the villagers found out that their family members were infected, they would definitely be very nervous. The villagers who did not seem to have fallen ill for the time being would go back and make a fuss.
In order to prevent the villagers from making a fuss, Gu Qingxue immediately asked someone to set up a fire at the entrance of the village. She set up a big black pot on top of the fire and started to brew the decoction she was researching seriously.
The decoction tasted extremely bitter, and there was also a big pot full of it, which made people feel nauseous just by smelling it.
Gu Qingxue did not care whether the others liked it or not. She asked Fu Cheng and the bailiffs behind him to come up and let them finish a bowl each.
After the bailiffs finished drinking, they kept their bowls of medicine. They had to take the medicine every morning and evening to ensure their health.
When the villagers heard that Gu Qingxue was distributing the medicine at the entrance of the village, almost all the family members came out to line up to drink the medicine.
This time, these villagers behaved very well. They wore masks and gloves obediently. Some of them even took diluted disinfectant and went out with them. They sprayed the disinfectant twice when they saw people, afraid that the protection was not adequate.
When Gu Qingxue distributed the medicine, she had a deep understanding of the situation of the families that went from house to house. She did not allow these people to bring their families out to get the medicine next time.
Every time the people of Tie Family Village queued up to get the medicine, they would come into contact with each other, which would greatly increase the risk of contracting the plague.
The patients who had already shown symptoms and the families of the other villagers who had temporarily fallen ill would be counted. The medicine would then be divided according to the number of people in each family. The people who came to collect the medicine, and the time to collect the medicine would be allocated reasonably. From tomorrow onward, everyone would follow the rules, so that they could avoid problems such as waiting in line for the medicine and touching each other.
The villagers soon found that their own people were infected. In the end, more than a dozen people in Tie Family Village had been infected. Moreover, nine out of ten of these people were old people and children.
Especially those children, they were all tormented by the acne that was about to appear on their bodies and were crying bitterly. They were struggling and unwilling to cooperate with the treatment.
Madam Peng dragged his son, who was already starting to heat up, to the village entrance.
Madam Peng’s son, Jin Dabao, walked the entire way and cried the entire way. He was crying and unwilling to cooperate. “Sob, sob, sob, I don’t want to take medicine. I don’t want to see a doctor. Doctors are so fierce! Sob, sob, mother, I want to go home!”
