After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 401 Epidemic

The others turned to look at him.

Xu Li felt a little nervous when being stared at by so many people: "Did I say something wrong?"

Xia Wanniang turned to look at Qingfeng: "Qingfeng, is there any news from the northwest recently?"

Before Qingfeng could speak, Shopkeeper Hong said something: "Recently, the purchase volume of medicinal materials in Maocheng has increased a lot. I heard from a familiar shopkeeper that many people in the villages near Maocheng seem to be sick recently."

Xia Wanniang's heart tightened: "When did it happen?"

"Not long after you arrived in Lincheng, I sent a message to the boss saying that the weather had changed recently and many people were sick." After Manager Hong said this, he saw that the faces of several people were not good.

He asked uneasily, "Did I say something wrong?"

Xia Wanniang looked at Shopkeeper Hong and said, "I hope we are just worrying too much. Let's get some rest today. We need to get to Maocheng as soon as possible."

Shopkeeper Hong looked at Shopkeeper Chang, looking bewildered.

Shopkeeper Chang just smiled and patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, it's okay."

Xia Wanniang asked Yunhe about the distance from here to Maocheng. According to their current speed, it might take five or six days.

She could only let Huihui and the others go ahead to investigate the situation for her: "Huihui, remember, don't eat anything or drink anything from a place where humans are sick. Stay away from them before looking for food."

Huihui and the others looked at Lai Fu in confusion.

Lai Fu: They asked why?

Although Xia Wanniang didn't want to think that, she could only speak out her guess: "I'm afraid it's an epidemic. If they get infected, it will be really troublesome."

The little fox Lai Fu had a look of surprise on his face, but he still explained it seriously to Huihui and the others.

Xia Wanniang patted their heads and said, "Be careful and don't take risks."

Gray and the others rubbed its palms, turned around and flew out of the window.

Xu Li also realized the seriousness of the problem. Seeing Hui Hui listening to them all leave, he became even more uneasy: "Yi Feng, do you think we are overthinking it?"

Yifeng: "Master, I also hope that we are overthinking it."

During dinner, everyone seemed to be rather silent, and the atmosphere was more depressing than ever before.

Aunt Xiao and the others didn't ask any questions. They just finished their meal quietly and took the children to rest.

Qingfeng and the others were sitting in the main room, looking at each other, and no one spoke first.

Xu Li coughed a few times and said, "Don't be so serious, maybe we are overthinking it. It's just a common illness and fever."

Yifeng nodded in agreement: "Yes, maybe it's just a common illness. Isn't it normal for people to get sick in this season?"

Xia Wanniang looked at them with a worried look on her face and said, "Alright, go and have a rest. We are just preparing for the worst. Don't think about it for now. There will always be a way."

In the next few days, no one dared to delay on the road and tried to save time as much as possible.

Huihui and the others came back on the afternoon of the fourth day, and they looked extremely tired.

Xia Wanniang brought them food and checked their health to confirm that they were hungry, only then did she feel relieved.

Lai Fu: Huihui and the others said that many people in the village where we are now are sick. They don’t know how to describe it, but some people have already died.

Xia Wanniang frowned even more tightly: "Are there many deaths?"

Lai Fu and Hui Hui communicated with the others: A lot of people have died in a village ahead of you, and more people are getting sick and dying.

Xia Wanniang knew immediately after hearing this that the worst thing they had expected had happened: "How far is it from us?"

Lai Fu: Less than five miles.

Xia Wanniang asked Huihui and the others to have a good rest, and she walked out of the tent and looked into the distance.

Aunt Xiao followed her out and said, "Mrs. Wan, did something happen?"

Xia Wanniang looked at her and did not hide anything: "Mother, we may already be in the epidemic area. We may all be in danger from now on."

Auntie Xiao had long since taken life and death very lightly: "It's okay, just tell us if there's anything you need us to do. If we can't do anything else, we can still help you."
