Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Madam Wang endured the pain and changed her clothes. Before dawn, she got up to make breakfast. Then, she lay back down. After dawn, she said in a low voice, “I’ve already made breakfast. It’s in the pot. I want to sleep a little longer. Don’t wake me up.”
One less person on the table meant that they could eat more. Of course, Wang Dazhu was happy. “Then go to sleep.”
In any case, there was nothing much to do. If Madam Wang wanted to sleep, she could sleep more.
Madam Wang was covered by the blanket. Wang Dazhu did not care about her at all, so he did not notice anything unusual. Hearing the sound of the door closing and the table being set up, Madam Wang smiled.
When the sound of the table being set up was gone, Madam Wang got up and went out. Her entire body was red, causing the Wang family to freak out. Madam Liu shouted, “Stop right there. Don’t come over.”
The entire family looked panicked and afraid. Madam Wang stood rooted to the ground and looked at them in fear.
Old Master Wang came back to his senses and said in a low voice, “We can’t keep you in this family anymore. For the sake of your child, you have to leave. The government has a doctor to treat you. This is the best way. You’ve always been a sensible person. Your mother-in-law and I treat you as our own daughter. You’ll listen to us, right?”
Madam Wang sneered. “I’m not leaving. If I leave with the soldiers, I won’t be able to come back alive. Moreover, 1 made breakfast today. During the process, countless blisters on my hands broke.”
Madam Wang’s expression was a little sinister. “On the way to the netherworld, 1’11 be lonely. It’s good to drag three or four people down with me.”
Madam Wang’s stubbornness made the family completely furious. “You crazy woman, if you want to die, die alone. Why did you harm all of us?”
Seeing that Madam Wang was still laughing, Madam Liu was angry. The entire family drank tons of water, trying to wash down the food they just ate. Madam Wang did not cry out in pain when she was beaten by them. Instead, she smiled and said, “Mother, you broke the blister on my face.”
Madam Liu was afraid and angry.
There was the sound of footsteps outside. Someone knocked on the neighboring door and asked, “Is there anything abnormal about your family? If there is, you have to tell us.”
Seeing that they were about to reach the Wang family, Madam Wang smiled and said, “Father, Mother, aren’t you indignant? Recently, everyone has been saying that the Xia Dynasty is about to fall. That’s why there are so many troubles. How many people have died from this plague? Even if the plague will die down in the future, the ones infected with it in the beginning will surely die. In any case, we’re going to die. Why don’t we get a few more people to be our companions?”
Madam Wang looked at her family calmly and continued, “If I’m infected, the chances of you getting infected are also very high. This plague is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster. Why should we mortals bear the sin for that cultivator? Even if we have to die, we have to die together.”
No one should live. Only this was fair.
The angry Wang family looked at Madam Wang sinisterly, but they were persuaded.
Therefore, after the soldier knocked on the door, Old Master Wang said in a low voice, “Go and open the door. Find some excuses to send them away.”
Madam Wang smiled at Old Master Wang and said, “Father, you’re the smartest. Mother, you are a woman of the world and will definitely be able to deal with these patrolling soldiers. Don’t blame me. The capital is so big, so there must be more than one person like me. It’s impossible for the patrolling soldiers to search every house. Father, Mother, if you don’t believe me, just wait. There will definitely be many people spreading infections these few days.”
Madam Liu took a deep breath and went to open the door. The capital was so big, so it was impossible for the patrolling soldiers to search every house, so they left quickly.
Madam Liu really hated her daughter-in-law to the core. In the past, she did not realize that her daughter-in-law was so vicious!
The entire family stayed away from Madam Wang, but in the afternoon, Madam Liu started to sweat profusely and feel hot. Madam Wang smiled and went to help her. “Mother, this is a sign of the plague.”
Madam Liu’s eyes rolled back and she fainted.
The entire family had a fever one after another. Madam Wang was happy. She encouraged them, “How long can we live? It’s not good to die for nothing, right? Now is the best chance to take revenge.”
Otherwise, when they died, they would never have the chance to take revenge.
Old Master Wang tacitly agreed.
The family began to make steamed buns. It was very simple to spread the plague.
Madam Liu’s eyes were ruthless and incomparably sinister. “It’s not our fault. If they get sick, they can only blame themselves for being greedy.”
Madam Wang smiled. “I’ll send some to the Li family too. That woman and her children are suffering. I’m afraid they’ve never eaten their fill in their lives.”
She was about to die and wanted everyone to die with her.
Baskets full of steamed buns were sent out one after another.
In the capital, things like this kept happening.
As for the people who were quarantined, it was like hell on earth.
Everyone was furious, and their rationality gradually disappeared from their minds.
Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan were busy patrolling the capital, trying to catch evil people who wanted to spread the plague on purpose. However, there were still many people who were not stopped in time.
In just three to five days, the capital was completely out of order. The plague was out of control. Some people who were infected went mad. They headed to the streets and smashed the things. When Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan returned, Liu Sanniang had yet to come out. With Chu Yan and General Black guarding her, it was safe.
Hu Yu said, “Let’s go and protect Young Marquis. At the same time, see if he has refined any worms that can strengthen the body. This plague makes me a little nervous.”
Liu Yuanyuan nodded in agreement.
Hu Yu sighed. “If I catch the plague, will all my beautiful hair fall off? How ugly will that make me? Liu Yuanyuan, I envy you for being hairless, but if you catch the plague, it will be very uncomfortable to shed a layer of skin, right?”
Liu Yuanyuan ignored her and said seriously, “You shouldn’t worry unnecessarily. You should believe that Venerable Liu can suppress this evil plague..”
