Chapter 49 Smallpox spreads! Two brothers laugh at Master Sun
Hearing this, Wang Zheng and his wife were shocked.
They originally didn't have much hope for the method of treating smallpox developed by Sun Xin, but now there are seven people in this team and four people have been left in Laizhou with smallpox. Only three people have come back safe and sound, and they just happened to
These are the three people Sun Xin vaccinated with pox!
Wang Zheng was surprised: "Could it be that Sun Xin's method of treating smallpox is really that powerful? Come on, take me to see..."
Ten miles away, Sunjiazhuang was crowded with people from Hujiazhuang who came to escape the plague.
In a small house, a child hugged Hu Cai's leg and said coquettishly: "Dad, when can we go back to Hujiazhuang? This village is so small, it's not fun at all."
"Go, go, go play over there, daddy is talking about something."
Hu Cai watched impatiently as the servants coaxed his youngest son away, and then he said to Hu Cheng with a depressed look: "The plague this year has become extremely evil. Many people in the Yishuiyun City area of Laizhou have been infected with the disease.
How long can we hide here? In a few days, I'm afraid that smallpox will spread to Dengzhou as well."
Hu Cheng said angrily: "Don't use crow's mouth... you can hide for a day. Look at dad's body, if he is infected with smallpox..."
Hu Cai said: "I've long been tired of staying here because it's cramped. So is Sun Xin. There's nothing in such a big farm. He spends all day either in the fields or in the cowshed fiddling with his stuff."
The cow is more tired than the banker, how can there be such a bank owner?"
He pointed at Sun Xin and said: "Brother-in-law, you have nothing to do every day to pick the pimples on the cow, saying that it can prevent smallpox. This is something I have never heard of. What is it if it is not crazy?"
"Am I still wrong in what I said?"
Hu Cai was very jealous of Sun Xin for building his own Zhuangzi in a short period of time. He often heard Sun Xin being praised by Hu Taigong and Hu Chen's family and then compared him with himself. He had long disliked Sun Xin in his heart.
Sun Xin's face was expressionless upon hearing this.
Grand Duke Hu couldn't stand it anymore and said to Hu Cai: "Shut up, you little beast!"
At this time, an old voice came and both of them were startled: "What are you doing?"
"Haha, I think you are just jealous that my husband-in-law has his own village in a short period of time, so you deliberately picked this matter to ridicule him!"
"Even if I'm like you, how can you compare with my husband?"
Hu Sanniang sneered and said: "I said you are not as good as my husband-in-law in everything, so you are jealous of him."
No one had thought about it like this before. When Hu Sanniang counted Sun Xin's achievements in this year in detail, everyone present was surprised that Sun Xin could achieve such achievements in just one year. They felt the same for Sun Xin, a young man in his heart.
Secretly surprised.
After Hu Cai finished speaking, seeing Sun Xin still standing there expressionless, Xinzhong felt that Sun Xin was shrinking because he felt wrong, and couldn't help but feel proud.
He couldn't help but said carelessly and in a lecturing tone: "You, you are working so hard every day, and the little family fortune you have finally earned will be defeated by you one day. Who will be my third wife then?"
keep?"
Hu Sanniang put her hands on her hips and her sharp-tongued mouth was unforgiving at all.
"You...why should I be jealous of him?"
"If you were given the same conditions, could you run such a Sun Village within a year?"
"You!" Hu Sanniang's face turned red with anger.
"Don't blame my brother for saying you are too ambitious. I don't know where you got this method of vaccinating cowpox, but if you think about it, if this method is useful, wouldn't it be that someone has already used it?"
"Less than a year ago, my husband was just an ordinary military household in Dengzhou City. He took a hoe and two brothers to open up wasteland outside Shilipai. In just one year, he now has five people under his command.
Ten bankers, more than 500 acres of good land, all planted with wheat seedlings, have earned a huge family fortune."
Hu Cai said angrily: "Then he relies on seeds from overseas. If you want to give me those seeds..."
Seeing that Sun Xin didn't answer, Hu Cai felt that he must have mentioned Sun Xin's pain point, and then said to Sun Xin with a very mocking face:
"Is he also trying to figure out a way? You should also keep your voice down."
Hu Sanniang stepped forward and stopped in front of her husband, and said to Hu Cai: "Second brother, what are you talking about?"
"You were born in our Hujiazhuang, and you have a lot of land in your hands, but have you ever grown the same amount of food as my husband-in-law, seven bushels per acre? Let alone seven bushels, you can't even grow three bushels of peanuts per acre!"
The words were too unpleasant to hear, like a curse. Sun Xin did not speak, but Hu Sanniang in front of her could no longer bear it.
"I……"
Hu Cai said she could, but saying something bad about Sun Xin was like touching her back. She had to take it out on Sun Xin.
After hearing this, Hu Cheng quickly lowered his head and said nothing. Hu Cai's face turned red and he said stiffly: "I'm not wrong either."
Hu Cai's face turned red and white after being told that. In fact, no matter how shameless he was, he would not have the shame to say that he could do better than Sun Xin to his face.
Hu Cai laughed and said: "He just spent a few days as a military doctor in a military school when he was young. He only has the ability to cure sores with the golden touch. Do you really think he is some kind of miracle doctor? He lives a good life but makes himself sick. He also said
This can cure smallpox. Isn’t this just crazy?”
When Taigong Hu saw that they were speaking ill of his uncle behind his back and his uncle and daughter heard them, he felt very embarrassed. He was so angry that he trembled and said angrily: "You are eating other people's food and drinking other people's food on their farm, and you still say things like this."
People are gossiping, but this is how I teach you how to behave?"
She added: "My husband-in-law learned the art of dispensing medicine in the south. He can prepare a jar of medicinal wine and sell it for fifty taels of silver in Dengzhou City. Or is the supply exceeding demand? Do you have this ability?"
"My husband-in-law is very good at working in the fields. No matter what the field affairs are, he is more proficient than the most powerful old farmers. Do you have this skill?"
The two of them turned around and saw Taigong Hu with an angry look on his face, and Hu Sanniang and Sun Xin standing beside him, who had walked in at some point. Their faces turned pale with fright.
"Look at Shilipai now, who doesn't laugh at him?"
Hu Cai, who was sitting on the ground, immediately jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on: "What did you say?"
He then said to Hu Sanniang: "Sister, I am not as talkative as I am. You, the wife, don't know how to persuade your husband? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if you tell me?"
"You took the smallpox from the cow and planted it on people. It's disgusting to think about it. How could anyone do this?"
But he was still unconvinced and said: "Haha, no matter how incompetent I am, I won't be stupid enough to cut smallpox from cows and vaccinate people, and then say that it can prevent and cure smallpox disease."
He was about to persuade Hu Cai not to be too disrespectful to Sun Xin when he suddenly heard a commotion coming from outside.
A dealer hurried in.
Sun Xin asked him: "What happened?"
The banker said: "Several beautiful carriages came to Dengzhou City, saying they were specifically looking for the owner of the village."
