"What are you talking about, Ah Yue? Hasn't Heng Yue been writing to you all the time? That brat has never written a letter to me, an old father."
What Father Yu said is true. That brat Yu Hengyue has indeed never written a letter to his father.
"Then what did you hide just now?"
Yu Shuyue was not fooled by him. As he spoke, he took the tea from Shaoyao's hand and put it on the table, while heading towards the place where he had hidden the fold.
"this is nothing."
"Daddy."
Seeing his daughter's cold and serious face, Father Yu had no choice but to compromise. He reluctantly took out the booklet and said, "I can show it to you, but Ah Yue has to promise daddy not to worry."
Yu Shuyue could only nod his head as he would not show it to her unless she agreed.
Likewise, her inner uneasiness has spread to the greatest extent.
After reading the contents of the brochure clearly, Yu Shuyue's face suddenly turned pale.
"Dad, how could this... brother... be infected with the plague?"
Yu Shuyue's hand holding the fold trembled, and her body almost became unsteady. Fortunately, Shaoyao next to her supported her.
"Every time there is a flood, it is bound to be accompanied by the spread of the plague. Suizhou has suffered the most serious flood in a century. Although it has not rained now, as the weather heats up, the plague spreads faster."
"There is a plague in the city. As the minister of disaster relief, Heng Yue must have been worried about it every day. He contracted it without noticing. Not only did they bring along famous doctors from the capital, but also imperial doctors.
Well, Ah Yue, don’t worry too much.”
Father Yu received this Zhezi the day before yesterday. In the past few days, he had been shut up in his study, staring at the Zhezi and meditating on it for a long time.
At this moment, he was able to comfort his daughter calmly, as if it was not him who was worried just now with a dark face.
"It says that nearly 10,000 people in Suizhou City have died from the plague. How can Ah Yue feel relieved? Isn't it because you are worried that you have been staying in the study?"
"I am indeed worried, but I know that your brother will come back safely, and even if... he is unfortunate -"
"Dad, you are not allowed to say depressing words, my daughter. There is no such thing as a failure. My daughter will leave for Suizhou tomorrow."
Yu Shuyue interrupted her father. She didn't want to hear any bad thoughts.
"Don't go."
When Father Yu heard that she was going to Suizhou, his expression suddenly changed. He was so anxious that he couldn't control his temper for a moment, and yelled this loudly with his eyes wide open.
But he immediately realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly softened his expression for fear of scaring her. When he spoke again, his voice was gentler, but his tone was still strong.
"Ah Yue, what is the situation in Suizhou right now? What are you going to do? Heng Yue has already made my father very worried. Ah Yue, if you go again, if something happens, how will you let my father survive?"
"Taking a step back, what can Ah Yue do if he goes? Isn't it going to cause trouble if he goes at this time?"
"But……"
Yu Shuyue knew that her father was right, but she couldn't help but worry about her brother.
"No buts, there is no need to discuss this matter. Your brother will be fine. Ah Yue just needs to wait for the news at home with peace of mind. Well, it's getting late. Ah Yue should rest early."
Seeing her father's tough attitude, Yu Shuyue knew that she would not be able to go to Suizhou.
The tiredness on her father's face also made it clear to her that she was not only worried about her brother, but her father was also worried.
He is already so worried. As his daughter, she should not worry him anymore at this time.
Yu Shuyue left the study with a high heart.
After Father Yu was sure that his daughter had left, he sighed heavily, and his straight back suddenly collapsed.
He could feel a sense of fatigue when he raised his hands. He took out another booklet from the drawer. His hands seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he opened the booklet with great difficulty.
This envelope just arrived this evening. Fortunately, he felt uncomfortable and didn't take it out just now.
Otherwise, he might not be able to trouble his daughter.
The envelope that arrived today says that Yu Heng's condition is getting more serious, and Suizhou is now in short supply of medicinal herbs, so his situation is becoming more and more critical.
"Yue'er, you must come back safely. Daddy and your sister are still waiting for you."
Father Yu looked up at Suizhou on the map, with tears in his eyes, and murmured to himself.
…
Suizhou Station.
The man on the bed was now pale, and his lips were a little blue. Even though he was covered with a thick quilt, his body was trembling.
"Creak——"
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Yu Hengyue endured the pain and said with difficulty: "Whoever...don't come in...come in, be careful...infection..."
"Don't worry, I cherish my life more than anyone else."
Hearing Kong Qing's voice, he forced himself to open his eyes and saw him fully armed.
Kong Qing was dressed in white. He made a mask out of fine cloth to cover his face, leaving only a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes outside.
"You...can you do this..."
"I'll see if it's ok. I'm fine. Aren't I fine? Okay, just save some energy and drink the medicine. I don't want to have to give the medicine to General Yu myself."
Although there was a lot of disgust and impatience in Kong Qing's tone, he didn't care at all that Yu Hengyue was suffering from severe plague. He sat directly on the edge of his bed, holding the medicine bowl in one hand and preparing to help him get up to drink the medicine.
"Don't--just put the medicine here and I'll drink it later. You...go out."
Yu Hengyue was too weak and it was extremely difficult to speak. But when he saw him sitting so close to him, he now directly supported his body with his hands.
He tried his best to move his body to the inside of the bed, farther away from him.
"What, you still dislike me?"
Kong Qing's eyes and hands quickly restrained his body, preventing him from moving, and his tone became colder.
"I am seriously ill... I will infect you. You are a doctor. Hundreds of thousands of people outside... still need you... You can't lie... down, you..."
"Okay, I still have some strength to drink the medicine by myself, but if I insist on wasting energy by talking, I have to do it myself now."
Kong Qing was really too lazy to listen to his nonsense, so he saw the opportunity and put the bowl to his mouth and drank the medicine.
He still wanted to see this man alive and kicking around to find trouble with him. Although he was hateful, he was still alive, not like he was dying now. This chapter has been completed!
