“Recently, there have been many patients with Hyperthermia in the city. The guards in the city have also become stricter. I’m also being careful. When their exams are over in two days, we should leave as soon as possible. I bought this house and stockpiled some food in case of emergencies.”

Su Xiaolu explained to Wang Huilan what she had done today.

Wang Huilan nodded. She reached out and hugged Su Xiaolu gently. She stroked Su Xiaolu’s back and comforted her. “Okay, Xiaolu, don’t worry. Actually, in every city, there are some illnesses that infect many people every year, but they’ll be fine after treatment.”

Wang Huilan did not know why Su Xiaolu was so nervous. She could only comfort Su Xiaolu with what she had seen, hoping that Su Xiaolu would not be so nervous.

Ever since she met Su Xiaolu, she had been happy. Even Zhou Zhi had never made Su Xiaolu so nervous.

Su Xiaolu seemed to be shocked. Wang Huilan could feel her uneasiness.

Wang Huilan felt Su Xiaolu’s body tremble slightly. Wang Huilan’s heart tightened. She patted Su Xiaolu’s back and said, “Xiaolu, don’t be afraid. It’ll be fine.”

Su Xiaolu took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She smiled and said, “Sister-in-law Huilan, I’m fine. I’ll be fine after I calm down.”

Wang Huilan’s eyes turned red. “Xiaolu, I’ll go cook now.”

Su Xiaolu had been busy all day. She must not have eaten yet.

Su Xiaolu nodded.

Wang Huilan went to the kitchen. Su Xiaolu sat on a chair in the main room. Her eyes were lowered, and many memories were surging in her mind. The smell of a suspected plague reminded Su Xiaolu of the plague that the world had experienced in her previous life.

She lived in that city and personally saw many people around her die from the plague.

The memories of lockdown and not leaving the house, the pain of her friends dying of illness, suddenly surged out of her sealed memories.

That was why she was like a frightened bird today.

When Wang Huilan said that, she gradually calmed down.

There were some diseases that were contagious every year. After taking medicine, they would eventually be cured. When it came to plagues, the government had strict control. Once a plague appeared, the patients in the medical center had to report it strictly.

Su Xiaolu felt more at ease.

Wang Huilan made porridge and called Su Xiaolu to eat. Seeing that Su Xiaolu was much better, Wang Huilan was relieved.

“Xiaolu, here.”

Wang Huilan scooped a bowl of porridge for Su Xiaolu and smiled at her.

Su Xiaolu ate slowly with a spoon.

Wang Huilan said gently, “Xiaolu, don’t worry. The exam will end in two days. We’ll go home immediately after the exam.”

The rankings were released in early October. Originally, after the exam, they would stay for a few days before setting off.

But looking at Su Xiaolu, she probably wouldn’t stay and play. She would leave after the exam.

Su Xiaolu nodded. Many places in the city had that strange smell. It was a good thing not to stay in Furongzhou. Regardless of whether the plague was big or small, it was best to stay away.

Once they were infected with the plague, they might lose their lives.

No matter what, she hoped that her family would be safe. Naturally, she would avoid such risky things.

Seeing that Su Xiaolu was distracted, Wang Huilan did not say anything else. She knew that Su Xiaolu would not be at ease until she left Furongzhou.

After dinner, Su Xiaolu helped clean up the dishes, washed up, and went to bed.

Su Xiaolu tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. When she finally fell asleep, she dreamed the entire night.

In her dream was the epidemic she had experienced in her previous life.

At that time, the whole world was reporting about it. People were going out less, washing their hands frequently, and wearing masks.

She was a Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner and a good citizen. All she could do was give her friends some medicinal herbs that could strengthen their resistance. Her best friend had unfortunately passed away from an infection.

After waking up, Su Xiaolu was a little depressed.

The car accident made her transmigrate to this era, and she had long integrated into this place, so she cared about everything here.

Su Xiaolu made a simple mask. After breakfast, Su Xiaolu said to Wang Huilan, “Sister-in-law Huilan, stay here in peace for the next two days. I’m going to the medical center.”

Wang Huilan looked at Su Xiaolu worriedly and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Xiaolu, it’s not safe outside. Don’t go.”

Wang Huilan thought about Su Xiaolu’s abnormality yesterday and was a little worried about her.

At this moment, the best solution was to stay here and not go anywhere. They would wait for Su Chong and the others to finish their exams and pick them up before leaving the city immediately.

Su Xiaolu smiled at Wang Huilan and said, “Sister-in-law Huilan, don’t worry. I’m fine. Besides, I’m a divine doctor. Don’t worry about me.”

The plague was also a strange disease, so she naturally had to go and take a look. This was her decision after she calmed down.

Seeing how determined Su Xiaolu was, Wang Huilan instructed with concern, “Then be careful.”

Su Xiaolu nodded and smiled at Wang Huilan.

After dinner, Su Xiaolu put on her mask and went out.

She went straight to the Ji Shi Hall.

She could smell the strong, strange smell through the mask.

She realized that there were a few soldiers in Ji Shi Hall. Su Xiaolu went forward and was stopped by the soldiers. She asked coldly, “What’s the matter? Did you cough? Do you have a fever?”

The soldiers were also wearing masks.

Su Xiaolu said, “I have no symptoms. I’m a doctor. I want to see a patient.”

“You little brat, stop fooling around here. If there’s nothing else, go home and don’t run around. Go away, go away.”

The soldier looked at Su Xiaolu and asked her to leave.

This half-grown child called herself a doctor. Recently, there had been a plague in the city, so Ji Shi Hall was temporarily made into a quarantine site. From today onwards, they would no longer see patients. If Su Xiaolu wanted to go in, the soldiers would naturally not let her go.

Su Xiaolu was stunned. She did not expect to be stopped because she was a child.

She did not pester him. It was a good thing that the officials took this seriously so much.

However, the doctor of Ji Shi Hall must have discovered something.

Su Xiaolu went to the other medical centers and realized that they were all different. If the commoners wanted to see a doctor, they had to wash their hands with medicine outside the medical center and cover their mouths and noses before they could enter.

The streets were also much quieter. She even met many soldiers on the way.

Su Xiaolu looked around. The price of rice and grains had tripled overnight. The prices of inns and restaurants had also increased by two to three times.

She heard some people complaining. Some people said that every time there was something that looked like a plague, these profiteers would start to raise the price. There were plagues every year, so what was the big deal?

The Great Zhou Kingdom had strict regulations and the plague would be gone in less than two months. These profiteers were making black-hearted money!

Su Xiaolu focused on understanding the Great Zhou Kingdom’s prevention and control of the plague. She knew that the government was very concerned about the plague and had always been strict with it. Su Xiaolu was much more at ease. The prevention and control were so strict. Perhaps she was just too nervous.

When Su Xiaolu returned to the house, Wang Huilan had already prepared food and was waiting. Seeing that Su Xiaolu was not as nervous as when she left in the morning, Wang Huilan was relieved. She said gently, “Xiaolu, come and eat.”
