At this moment, Song Jinshu became more and more certain of his guess. The man just now said that there was a large-scale disease in the neighboring village, and it was most likely a plague.

Song Jinshu felt like the sky was falling. It happened too fast!

Although she had made preparations in advance, she really had no confidence when facing the plague.

"There isn't a single legitimate doctor in Jingyang County right now. If this is truly a plague, they'd be like sheep among wolves."

Song Jinshu bit her lip, and the best plan quickly emerged in her mind.

The only solution now is to borrow someone from the Liu family to take a look, then take precautions in advance, and then wait for the court to send an imperial physician.

Song Jinshu acted immediately and ran towards the Liu family, but met Shen Fenghua at the city gate.

Shen Fenghua spotted Song Jinshu from a distance and waved, "Where are you going? What happened that made you so flustered?"

It was the first time he saw Song Jinshu so anxious.

Song Jinshu panted heavily and explained intermittently, "I... huh... I need to go to the Liu family... to ask for a doctor! Another group of disaster victims has arrived... I guess... some of them must be suffering from... suffering from the plague..."

"Plague?" Shen Fenghua looked at her in shock. To them, these two words were like being sick and being sentenced to death.

"Yes! Get out of my way! I'm in a hurry!"

After Song Jinshu finished speaking, he pushed Shen Fenghua away and went to Liu's house alone to pick someone up.

On this side, Shen Fenghua frowned and watched Song Jinshu walk away. After she could no longer see her, she immediately ran home.

He wrote a letter in his study and sent a carrier pigeon to deliver the message. Soon the pigeon flew away.

Xiao Tan, who had been paying attention to his movements, looked at the pigeons flying away and thought that something must have happened in Jingyang County.

Thinking of this, he lost his composure and prepared to go out to look for Liu Jiangyue at top speed. However, when he reached the door, he forgot to take his crutches.

Originally, his injuries had healed long ago, but the people in Jingyang County obviously hid many secrets, and he suddenly didn't want to leave.

So one rainy night he went out and pretended to have broken his leg. Since there was no doctor in Jingyang County, he was not afraid of being exposed.

He went out and went straight to the pastry shop in the south of the city. At that time, Liu Jiangyue was soliciting customers in the shop.

Because of the flood, their business was greatly affected.

When Xiao Tan came over, she had sent off an old customer and was sitting alone in front of the counter with her head propped up.

"Yue'er?"

When Xiao Tan saw that Liu Jiangyue was safe and sound, he finally felt relieved and his legs began to limp.

He limped forward weakly, and Liu Jiangyue was surprised to see him.

"Ah Tan, why are you here?"

Seeing his pale face and affectionate look at her, Liu Jiangyue felt a little embarrassed, but concern prevailed.

She hurried out to support him: "The county is in chaos right now. You're injured, why did you come out?"

If that part of his body gets touched again, he will suffer again.

Over the past month, Liu Jiangyue has witnessed with her own eyes how unlucky he has become.

Either his leg was injured here or his hand was dislocated there, and it seemed as if the injury would never heal.

She really suspected that Xiao Tan had encountered something dirty.

Feeling Liu Jiangyue's concern, Xiao Tan couldn't stop smiling.

He asked softly, "Did something big happen in the county today? I saw my cousin rushing out, and the county yamen runners were also dispatched."

As for when his name for Song Jinshu changed, it all started when he fell in love with Liu Jiangyue.

Song Jinshu only regarded him as a weak and fragile man who lived off his wife and decided to pursue her in order to break up the couple.

Unfortunately, she later discovered that they had already fallen deeply in love without realizing it, so she had to give up.

Hearing Xiao Tan mention this, Liu Jiangyue's face was filled with worry: "I also heard from my fourth cousin that hundreds of disaster victims suddenly arrived outside the city, and for some reason, these disaster victims clashed with Cao Dutou and his men.

Fortunately, a leader among the victims was finally caught, and the group finally behaved themselves.

My cousin must be busy trying to find a place to accommodate these disaster victims right now!"

"Oh? Is that so?" Xiao Tan lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something.

Liu Jiangyue hummed and sighed, "I don't know if my cousin has enough money. I'll give her the money I earned this month. At least she can get by for a while."

Hearing his sweetheart say this, Xiao Tan's heart melted. How could his girl be so kind!

At the same time, he felt a little jealous. What kind of magic potion did that snobbish woman give to his good boy?

"Yue'er, you are so kind. I really hope she can remember your kindness and not throw her conscience away."

Not only did Song Jinshu look down on him, Xiao Tan also looked down on Song Jinshu. The two were like enemies.

So, whenever he gets the chance, he'll say something bad about her.

However, after hearing this, Liu Jiangyue was not dissatisfied with Song Jinshu.

Instead, she had some opinions about Xiao Tan. She knew that Xiao Tan was just harsh in words, but what he said was indeed too much.

So Liu Jiangyue's face turned cold on the spot: "A Tan, you can't say that about my cousin. My cousin has had a very difficult life...Now the Song family relies on my cousin to support it, and my family's affairs also rely on my cousin...

Before you came to Jingyang County, you may not know that Jingyang County was even more dilapidated than it is now. Now look at what the mental outlook of the people in our county is like?

And my cousin is kindhearted. I often see her helping beggars on the street. And... and... and now... the porridge that the disaster victims outside the city are eating is also the food that my cousin bought from her private storehouse..."

Liu Jiangyue didn't want such a good cousin to be misunderstood by her lover, so she listed countless of her advantages.

There are some advantages that even Song Jinshu would feel guilty and unable to raise his head if he were present.

Xiao Tan really wanted to say that he could do all these things, but seeing how much his sweetheart cared for Song Jinshu, he opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end.

Well, Song Jinshu treated these sisters and the county residents very well.

The only flaw is that it only affects him.

"Okay, okay! I'm sorry, I was wrong. My cousin is beautiful and kind-hearted. She's a great person in this world. I won't say anything bad about her anymore. Please don't be angry with me, okay?"

Xiao Tan knew that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly apologized to his sweetheart.

Seeing that he sincerely admitted his mistake, Liu Jiangyue forgave him.

There is still a long time. My cousin is so nice. Atan will definitely like her as much as they do in the future.

After coaxing his sweetheart, Xiao Tan was thinking about things outside the city. He said goodbye to Liu Jiangyue and went out of the city alone.

After some investigation, they finally found out everything, including Song Jinshu's suspicion that the victims might have the plague.

He also hurried back to the county government office, wrote a letter, and sent it out through his own channels.

There is not a single doctor in Jingyang County. If Song Jinshu's guess is true, it will be a big deal for the Jinghe Dynasty.
