The next day, Su Nian'an planned to go to the cabin to look for Chu Ruohuai early in the morning, but he came up empty-handed.

She was about to collapse. One or two of them were like this. Who on earth owned this broken village?

They all ran away. When Wang came back and saw Su Nian'an's angry face, she asked in confusion: "An'er? What's wrong? Didn't you go to find your son-in-law?"

Could this silly girl be angry? Although Ruohuai is a general, he cannot bully her An'er, not to mention that she is pregnant with his child.

Su Nian'an said angrily: "Isn't it because that man disappeared again! One or two of them are like this, is this village ours? Are you going to ignore it?"

"Ah? How come my brother-in-law is missing?" Su Ping'an also heard what his sister said. He couldn't believe it. She shouldn't run away, right?

"How would I know where he ran off to?" Su Nian'an said unhappily.

Isn't it better to stay away from them? Now I meet them and I don't help them at all and they disappear again.

Su Pingan kept silent. His sister was in a bad mood today, so it would be better for him to stay away from her...

"An'er, your son-in-law must have gone out to do something important. Don't blame him. After all, he is a general now and is very busy." Wang trusted Chu Ruohuai. He was definitely not the kind of person who would leave without saying goodbye.

Su Nian'an thought about it and nodded. Indeed, Chu Ruohuai was a general and had a lot of things to do, but what about the first in command, the second in command, the third in command, and the fourth in command?

The head of the entire village was not in the village, so did she really have to worry about everything? Even if she wanted to, how could other people in the village listen to her?

Su Nian'an's temples were throbbing with pain. Who are these people?

Yesterday Chu Ruohuai said that a doctor would come today, so we should wait for the doctor to come before making any plans.

Yesterday, apart from the mother and son of Pot Cover, no one else showed any signs of being infected with the plague.

I don’t know how the mother and son are doing now. Aunt Li and her husband were taking care of them yesterday. Su Nian’an took protective measures and walked into the cave.

"Aunt Li, Uncle Li, are Guo Gai and the others feeling better?" Su Nian'an covered her mouth and nose and spoke in a muffled voice.

Aunt Li took off the wet cloth covering the pot lid and said worriedly, "Your complexion looks better today, but the fever hasn't subsided. The same goes for the pot lid lady. The temperature won't go down. What should we do?"

Su Nian'an came closer and saw that the color of his lips was indeed much better than yesterday, with a hint of blood.

She touched their foreheads and said in a deep voice, "I'll ask Xiaojing to make two more bowls of mugwort soup and send them over later. Uncle Li, Aunt Li, you guys go back and have a rest. Leave this to Xiaojing and me."

Aunt Li shook her aching arm and said, "An'er, you are still pregnant, how can you take care of others?"

Uncle Li saw the dark circles under Aunt Li's eyes and said distressedly, "Qian'er, go and have a rest. I'm here. An'er, don't come here. Pregnant women don't have good immunity. What if you get infected? You also have to think about the baby in your belly."

Su Nian'an was unable to resist the two and was pulled out by Aunt Li. Su Nian'an placed a basin of spiritual spring water at the entrance of the cave to wash his hands.

Aunt Li felt that this was too extravagant and wasteful. There were so many people outside who couldn't get drinking water, and they were still using water to wash their hands.

An'er said that this could prevent the spread of the plague, so Aunt Li followed suit and tilted the basin so that some water leaked out. She used the leaked water to wash her hands.

After washing their hands, the two planned to go to the kitchen to make mugwort soup. When they arrived, they could hear snoring everywhere in the yard. These people were really carefree. It was probably because Chu Ruohuai's comforting words yesterday had worked. They knew someone would come to rescue them, so they slept so peacefully.

"An'er, look," Aunt Li suddenly whispered in Su Nian'an's ear, nodding her chin at the courtyard.

Most of the villagers were still sleeping, but some of them were used to getting up early and were helping the Su family spread wood ash and burn wormwood...

"Oh, now my son knows how to be proactive. He was so resentful yesterday." Aunt Li said with a hint of sneer

"If it continues like this, the plague will soon be over." Su Nian'an replied calmly.

"hope so"

Soon they arrived in the kitchen and met Chen Jing who was making soup.

Su Nian'an smiled and said, "Xiao Jing, you're here so early. Is the soup ready?"

"Aunt Li, Sister An, good morning. Just wait another quarter of an hour." Chen Jing threw a piece of firewood onto the stove and smiled at them.

"Yes, thank you for your hard work, Xiaojing," Aunt Li said gently.

"Yes, our Xiao Jing is very hardworking!" Su Nian'an said with a smile

"No, Aunt Li, Sister An's cigarette smell is too strong. You guys go take a rest. I'll be fine." Chen Jing lifted the lid and looked inside, then added some more firewood.

Su Nian'an looked at the kitchen and found it was too small and crowded with several people. He really couldn't help much, so he said, "Okay, Xiaojing, you and Uncle Li will watch Aunt Wu and the others for a while. If there is any problem, come out and call for help."

"Okay." Chen Jing agreed

After coming out of the kitchen, the villagers in the yard had all woken up and were packing their bedding. Now that the sun was shining, the quilts could be placed in the yard to dry, so they were spread out on the carpet, neatly arranged, which reminded Su Nian'an of the mats he used for military training in college.

Su Nian'an was staring at the bedclothes in a trance when suddenly, Su Ping'an came out of the wooden house in a hurry.

Aunt Li saw it and asked, "Ping An, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Su Ping'an saw Su Nian'an beside Aunt Li and immediately ran up to her, panting and saying, "An, er, huhu, Li, Aunt Li..."

Aunt Li looked at him and said, "Ping An, don't be anxious. Speak slowly, ah."

Su Nian'an brought a bowl of water to Su Ping'an, who drank it all in one gulp. At this moment, his breath calmed down a little.

"An, An'er, brother-in-law, are you familiar with the big boss? Does he know where the big boss is?" God knows how long he has been looking for him in the village. Not only is his son-in-law missing, but the big boss, the second boss, the third boss, and the fourth boss are all missing.

Su Nian'an looked at her brother with a puzzled look: "Brother, I don't know either. They are no longer in the village. What do you want to talk to the boss about?"

"Ah? Little girl has a fever now too! Doesn't the boss know how to treat a disease?" Su Ping'an said anxiously. What should he do? His brother-in-law said yesterday that the doctor who went up the mountain hasn't come up yet, and he doesn't know when they will come.

"Little Ni has a fever too!" Aunt Li covered her mouth and couldn't believe what she heard. How could it be? How could it be? Little Ni was still so young.

Su Pingan nodded weakly

What! Xiao Nier has a fever too!

Su Nian'an's heart almost stopped when he heard this. He ignored the other's reaction and ran towards the cabin.

The little girl didn’t enter the cave yesterday, so how could she have been infected?

Could it be that because I entered the cave, I brought the germs out?

But after she came out, she washed her whole body and fumigated herself by the pot of burning mugwort for half an hour before entering the wooden house.
