Jin nodded shyly: "Okay, when you get better, I will enjoy the happiness with you."

Now that her mother-in-law has passed away and her husband is not sure whether he will survive, Mrs. Jin feels anxious and confused.

If her husband also dies, where will she go?

Song Xiyue felt a little sweaty after drinking the medicine, and her head didn't hurt much anymore. She quickly asked: "How is Yun'er?"

"The fever has subsided, but the pimples haven't completely erupted yet, so I'm worried about getting a fever again."

Jin said softly: "We are lucky, we only got minor smallpox. If we got major smallpox, it is estimated that not many of us in Zhuangzi would survive."

When Song Xiyue heard this, she felt guilty.

Could it be that he was infected because he took the bellyband?

This thing is really scary, but I wonder if Song Changan’s family can get it?

She took a look at the pustules on her arms and thought that there were pustules on her face as well. Her scalp felt numb: "Sister, is there any pustule on Yun'er's face?"

Jin nodded: "Just a few, hair on the forehead. If there are scars in the future, they won't be visible if they are covered with bangs."

Song Xiyue felt relieved and asked about Lu Yuanjin's condition: "How is my husband?"

"His fever has temporarily subsided, and he should be completely healed once the abscesses scab."

The Jin family is in the medicine business. The Jin brothers and sisters have had some medical skills since childhood. They have seen patients suffering from smallpox, which looked terrifying.

Song Xiyue asked about her mother-in-law again and couldn't help but feel sad when she learned that she had been cremated.

But why didn’t my father-in-law get sick?

Seeing the lively Jin family, Song Xiyue thought that her father-in-law had also been vaccinated against cowpox.

A month later, people in the farm gradually improved, but several elderly people and children also died.

But the guards surrounding Zhuangzi did not withdraw. Instead, they ordered the people in Zhuangzi to take out all the clothes and quilts they wore when they were sick and burn them.

Some people didn't want to, so the soldiers set their houses on fire, and no matter how many things were inside, everything was reduced to nothing.

The villagers nearby were frightened when they saw this. They quickly took the clothes and quilts they used when they were sick and burned them at the intersection of Zhuangzi. They did not dare to hide anything secretly.

An Dingcheng government office house.

Chang'an ordered people to burn the children's clothes and boxes sent by Song Xiyue, and asked Lu Jingzhou to invite a doctor to come over and vaccinate his son Nao Nao and daughter Xiang Xiang with cowpox.

Two months passed and the smallpox incident finally came to an end. Lu Jingzhou wrote a memorial and sent it to the capital, telling the emperor that his aunt had passed away and he had to observe mourning for one year.

Unexpectedly, the emperor did not let him Ding You, but allowed him to continue to stay in his post.

Lu Jingzhou guessed that this would be the case, but he had to write a memorial in advance to avoid being impeached by the officials.

Lu Huainian was quite sad about the sudden death of his wife, and he treated his eldest son with a little more sympathy.

On this day, he found Lu Jingzhou and begged in a low voice: "Jingzhou, it's okay for your brother and his family to live in the countryside for a long time. Besides, your mother has passed away. It's better to let his family return to the city to live."

Lu Jingzhou pondered for a moment and could only nod.

In the end, Lu Huainian paid for a house in the city and brought Lu Yuanjin's family over.

Naturally, Chang'an also knew that Lu Yuanjin's family had returned to the city. They also set up a mourning hall where they lived and placed Cai's urn in the mourning hall.

She took Xiangxiang and kowtowed before coming back, which was considered a complete etiquette.

I thought that Lu Yuanjin's family would settle down in the city, but not long after, Song Xiyue clamored to return to Beijing.

Naturally, Lu Yuanjin didn't want to go back, so they started to quarrel and even slapped Song Xiyue several times.

As a result, within a few days, Song Xiyue took Lu Yun and her mother-in-law's inheritance away while Lu Yuanjin and Jin were not at home.

Lu Yuanjin looked at the empty cages and jumped up in anger and cursed.

Because the box contains not only the mother's inheritance, but also the wife's dowry.

Although he had already sold most of his wife's dowry, he still had a few gold-tipped clothes and a few satin dresses, but they were all gone now.

"Bitch! When I find you one day, I will definitely make you look good!" Lu Yuanjin scolded her for a long time before asking Jin to check how much money was left at home.

Jin took out a bag of broken silver from the kang hole: "Husband, there is only so much."

Lu Yuanjin grabbed the handkerchief and put all the money into his arms without counting it.

Jin was on the verge of tears and could only watch helplessly as her only remaining money was taken away by her husband.

One time, Changan took his children to the market and suddenly saw a young woman sitting on the corner of the street, selling handkerchiefs and insoles.

"Eh? Isn't she the eldest aunt?" Xiangxiang's sharp eyes caught sight of Jin sitting on the roadside and walked over curiously.

The eldest aunt is very kind, much kinder than Lu Yun's mother, and Xiangxiang is very willing to get close to her.

Jin raised his eyes and saw Chang'an and his daughter. Her face turned pale, and then she lowered her eyebrows and pretended not to see them.

Chang'an knew that Jin was thin-skinned, so he didn't go there.

But Xiangxiang had already walked up to Jin and asked, "Auntie, what are you doing here?"

Jin could only raise her face and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Xiangxiang. I sell some embroidery here."

As he spoke, he selected two pieces of the best fabric from the pile of handkerchiefs and handed them to Xiangxiang: "This color is good, Xiangxiang, take it and use it."

"Thank you, uncle." Xiangxiang was not polite and reached out to take the handkerchief.

Then she ran to the vendor selling candied haws on a side and bought a few bunches of candied haws and handed them to Jin: "Auntie, this is for you to eat."

Jin declined: "You can eat it yourself, I don't like snacks."

When Xiangxiang heard what she said, she believed it and quickly asked, "What does the aunt like? Xiangxiang will buy it for you."

Jin smiled bitterly: "No need to buy things from Xiangxiang."

Xiangxiang scratched her head and had no choice but to run to Chang'an with the candied haws on her hand.

Chang'an touched her head, said nothing, and left with a few people.

The next day, Chang'an sent someone one hundred taels of silver to Jin for emergency use.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Nao Nao is now three years old.

And Xiangxiang is eight years old,

In the past three years, stability has changed drastically.

The original loess was transformed into a paradise for plants.

However, the stable land is not as good as Ansai. For the time being, rice cannot be grown, only wheat or beans.

And as Anding Mansion gradually becomes more vibrant, things are not going well for Ansai Mansion.

In recent years, the water in the ponds in the Ansai area has gradually dried up, and the reservoirs have gradually dried up.

This made the local people panic and rushed to the government office one after another, asking the prefect to find a solution quickly.

What can the prefect do? He is not the Dragon King, so can he move clouds and make rain?

"It must be Lu Jingzhou's guy!" The magistrate groaned angrily and wrote a memorial: "As soon as he was transferred away, Ansai would have no water. How could such a coincidence happen?"

According to the prefect's knowledge, after Lu Jingzhou and his wife arrived in Anding, a large number of reservoirs and rivers appeared in Anding, which were exactly the same as when he was in Ansai.

If you say that nothing happened, I won't believe it even to death!
