Ms. Cui had a fever again at night. Yang Heshu sat by the bed and whispered to comfort her, while Manbao prescribed medicine and injected acupuncture. In addition, five other patients also had the condition. Manbao was extremely busy and did not stop until the early morning.

Fortunately, the people who live here are all from well-off families. Even if her family is not here, there is at least one servant who is waiting on her. She only needs to get acupuncture and prescriptions, but she can get by.

After everyone had passed the crisis, Manbao went to wash her hands and change clothes, and then lay down on her bed without moving.

Although I was very tired, I woke up early in the morning after sleeping for less than two hours.

Sister-in-law He didn't expect Zhou Man to wake up so quickly and hurriedly came in to wait on her.

Manbao yawned, changed his clothes, stood up, and asked, "Are there any new patients in the hospital today?"

"Yes." Sister-in-law He paused and said, "Nothing was sent out today."

That is to say, no one is seriously ill or dead.

Manbao nodded and went to have breakfast first. Before he finished eating, Yang Heshu came over and sat across from her.

Only then did Man Bao think of him and said sheepishly: "Senior Brother Yang, I have forgotten you."

Yang Heshu couldn't help but smile, "I don't blame you, you are just too busy."

He gave her a bun and asked, "Xiazhou's naan is good, and it's good to eat it with the mutton soup. It's a pity that I can't treat you to it now. I have to wait until the smallpox is over."

"Brother, please make sure to treat us to a meal when it's over," Man Bao asked, "How is your sister-in-law doing now?"

"I fell asleep, and now it's just a slight fever. I look much better than last night."

"I'll go check on her later."

They had just finished eating when Manager Li came back to report: "Sir, Mr. Bai has brought two people here and are waiting outside the gate. They say they are family members of Imperial Physician Zhou."

Man Bao immediately stood up and said, "Senior brother, please sit down first and I'll go see you."

As he spoke, he said to Keke in his mind: "Buy it."

Keke happily asked: "How much do you want to buy?"

Man Bao said with heartache: "Buy more, just buy... fifty pills."

As soon as he finished speaking, Man Bao heard the sound of jingling bells, two in a row, which showed how fast Keke was.

When they arrived at the door, the soldiers checked carefully before letting Zhou Man out.

Bai Shan and Bai Erlang led Daji and the three of them to the side, while Zhou Lang and Zhou Lijun stood next to them.

Seeing Man Bao, Zhou Lang and Zhou Lijun rushed forward. One of them lowered his voice and said, "You don't want your life. Why are you coming to Xiazhou at this time?"

One asked: "Sister-in-law, can you cure smallpox?"

Man Bao first answered Zhou Lang, "This is a sacred decree. People from Taiyuan Hospital are lagging behind and will come."

Then he answered Zhou Lijun, "Treatment will depend on the situation. Are you all okay?"

"It's okay," Zhou Lijun glanced at Zhou Lang and said with a smile: "Don't worry, little sister, we don't have any other skills, but we are very precious about our lives. As soon as Xiazhou City was closed, we rented a big courtyard to live in, and then

One after another, I took out all the medicinal materials in my hand."

Man Bao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "We are not from Xiazhou. We have no foundation here. It is not a good thing to have a lot of medicinal materials and food on hand."

"Brother Xiang also said the same, so we never hide the medicinal materials from anyone. The medicinal materials sold to each family are very expensive, but we also donated a batch to the county government. Every time we take the medicinal materials out, we let the neighbors see it. Now

Everyone knows that we are out of medicinal materials."

"It's a pity that we also brought twenty cows from the grassland this time. Now we are locked up in the yard. It is too difficult to feed them. We are currently thinking of ways to take action," Zhou Lijun said: "But there is no shortage of cows in Xiazhou

, and not many people dare to go out at this time, not even us, so..."

Man Bao then looked at Bai Shan. Bai Shan thought about it and said, "Leave it to Senior Brother Yang, or I will kill him."

Not to mention Zhou Lang, Zhou Lijun stared in shock, "Kill them all?"

Bai Shan and Man Bao said: "I looked at the data yesterday and went to the medical shed again, and I realized that almost half of the patients in the city now come from outside villages. Brother Yang said

, in some smaller villages, except for some adults and children, everyone else is gone."

"So don't say that it's hard for people to go out now. Even if the disease is over, it's impossible for you to sell these cattle in Xiazhou, so the best way is to kill them. There is a shortage of meat in the city, so at least you won't lose money."

But it won’t be possible if you keep raising it any longer.

The cattle will get sick and lose weight due to the daily fodder required. The more they are raised, the higher the cost will be, and they may actually lose money.

Zhou Lijun frowned, and Zhou Lang also frowned, but he made a quick decision and gritted his teeth and said: "Then kill them all."

Man Bao immediately said: "It's hard for you to go out now. I'll go find Senior Brother Yang for help."

She looked at the pills in the space, nodded to Zhou Lang and said, "You guys wait for me here, I'll go find Senior Brother Yang."

She went in and took Yang Heshu out with two medicine bottles in her hand. She handed the medicine bottles to Zhou Lang and Zhou Lijun and said: "Take the pills in here one by one. Don't take more, and don't take any pills."

If you don’t want to eat, I will count the heads and find one for each person.”

Zhou Lang took the bottle and asked: "What kind of medicine is this?"

Man Bao said: "It will prevent you from catching smallpox so easily. The effect may not be certain, so you should pay more attention to it on weekdays."

Zhou Lang's eyes lit up and he said: "If we have this thing, why don't we tell everyone the recipe and let everyone eat it? We can also make it ourselves, and maybe we can make a lot of money."

Man Bao was speechless for a moment, and Bai Shan frowned and said, "There is no prescription."

"Isn't this made by Manbao? How come there is no recipe?"

Bai Erlang on the side said: "Oh, you will understand why after you eat it. There is not much difference between having a prescription and not having one."

Man Bao turned to glare at him, "This is medicine, not sugar!"

Bai Erlang said: "Just say so."

Bai Shan interjected: "Actually, sugar is also medicine."

Man Bao immediately said: "Yes, sugar can also be used as medicine."

Yang Heshu felt that Bai Shan was well reconciled.

When Zhou Lang heard their discussion, he poured a pill into his mouth. He originally thought that he could swallow it without water, but before he could swallow it, he tasted a hint of sweetness, and then the sweetness became stronger and stronger.

It gets stronger and stronger, until finally a faint medicinal smell comes out...

Thursday Lang:......

He silently capped the bottle, stuffed it into his pocket and nodded, "Okay, I understand, let them eat when we get back."

He now believed that Man Bao really had no recipe, and he also felt that she was not the one who made the candy... pill.
