Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 533 - 532: Could We Have Caught the Plague, Too?

When they returned to the tent at the village entrance, Xuan Ying’s small face was filled with concern.

Shen Qinglan initially thought he was upset about seeing those villagers who died from the illness, but then she heard him say, "The lotus leaf chicken we had two days ago, could it also be contaminated by the plague?"

Those who ate the lotus leaf chicken: ...

"Don’t talk nonsense!" Duan Yunfei lightly reprimanded, "Isn’t everyone fine?"

Xuan Ying said, "But some fevers have incubation periods. What if they’re fine now but suddenly fall ill in two days?"

"There shouldn’t be any problem," Le Zhao softly reassured, "Stay calm!"

Lan Ruo also quietly comforted, "Xuan Ying, don’t worry. With my grandfather here, even if you catch something, you’ll be fine." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"You’re right!" Xuan Ying put away his dejection, "With Elder Mu here, we’ll definitely be okay!"

Xuan Ming shook his head helplessly, unsure when his younger brother’s jumpy nature would change.

"Other places should still be fine for now," Fu Junyan said, "At least up till now, there’s been no news."

Song Ting looked at him and said, "General Fu, can you help us get someone to brew a pot of honeysuckle tea?"

"Honeysuckle tea?" Fu Junyan nodded, "You all sit tight. I’ll go get someone to make it for you."

Even though he no longer held any military power, people still called him General when they saw him. Since he was a general, requesting a pot of tea shouldn’t be refused, right?

Indeed, before long, someone came over with a teapot.

"Drink up!" Xuan Ming poured a cup for Xuan Ying and said softly, "Drink it, to prevent cold."

"Oh," Xuan Ying took the cup and began sipping it.

"Why hasn’t grandpa returned yet?"

They had been waiting at the village entrance for nearly an hour, but still had not seen any sign of Mu Jian and Du Bingxue, causing a bit of worry to brew in their hearts.

Lan Ruo and Fu Junyan were especially anxious, pacing back and forth, making others start to worry as well.

"No, I can’t!" Fu Junyan said, "I have to go in and take a look."

As soon as he said this, he didn’t wait for a response from others and strode into Xinghua Village.

"Wait." Duan Yunfei stood up and said, "I’ll go with you."

"I’ll go too." Song Ting looked at Lan Ruo and said, "You stay here with Qinglan and the others. I’ll go in and if master is fine, I’ll come back."

Lan Ruo pursed his lips, "But... I also want to go!"

Song Ting said softly, "Be good!"

"Alright then!" Lan Ruo pressed his lips and said, "You go quickly and come back soon."

Song Ting smiled and nodded slightly.

Duan Yunfei gently patted Shen Qinglan on the head and softly said, "Wait here for me, I’ll be back soon."

Shen Qinglan nodded, "Be careful!"

Duan Yunfei chuckled, "Don’t worry, for my beloved wife, I won’t let anything happen to myself!"

He looked at Le Zhao and said, "Le Zhao, I’ll leave them to you, along with Xuan Ming and Xuan Ying."

Le Zhao raised an eyebrow, "Don’t worry, without us, nothing would happen to them anyway."

Who dares to bully Shen Qinglan? It would be suicidal.

Xuan Ying and Xuan Ming said in unison, "Young Master, take care!"

Duan Yunfei nodded, got up, and walked into the village together with Song Ting and Fu Junyan.

The soldiers at the gate, seeing Fu Junyan, dared not voice any objections and just stared ahead, letting them in.

"Qinglan, I want to go in and have a look!"

Duan Yunfei and the others hadn’t been gone long when Lan Ruo started to feel restless.
