380 Couldn’t Wait to See How Unlucky Those Three People Were
“They have the plague after all. If they don’t get better, the plague won’t end,” Gu Qingxue said.
Madam Peng continued to explain for Rong Zhan, “Doctor Gu, don’t blame His Royal Highness. You can only blame the three of them for seeking their own deaths! Doctor Gu, you have no idea how hard it was for you two days ago when you spent so much effort studying soup and medicine. You didn’t sleep or rest for two days! In the end, not only were the three of them not grateful, but they even said a lot of sarcastic things, making us all feel angry when we heard them. No one was willing to help them.”
Gu Qingxue smiled and did not think much of it. “It was just a stray dog barking unwillingly. Why do you have to take it seriously?”
“Everyone in the village thinks that the three of them are asking for trouble. We can’t let them off so easily. Doctor Gu, I think you should ignore them for now. They are not afraid of death. When they realize that the decoction you prepared is effective, they will naturally think of a way to come to you and ask for your help,” Madam Peng said, but Gu Qingxue still could not swallow her anger.
Gu Qingxue thought about Madam Peng’s words and nodded, “What you said makes some sense.”
She really wanted to cure the plague.
However, she could cure the villagers first and then leave the people who had wronged her behind.
She was not a coward. If those people were not grateful to her, why would she find trouble and repay them with kindness?
“Doctor Gu, in my opinion, you should just leave them alone for another two days. In another two days, they will come to beg you. By then, things will be different!” Madam Peng’s said gloatingly.
It was obvious that Madam Peng could not wait to see the three people’s bad luck.
“Okay, then let’s give them the decoction from before to ease their condition,” Gu Qingxue said indifferently and returned with Madam Peng.
On the other side, outside the tent where Prince Heng and the other two were staying, Bing ‘er was pacing back and forth anxiously, looking at the path ahead from time to time, hoping to see Gu Qingxue.
However, she did not see Gu Qingxue after waiting for another 15 minutes.
Bing’er craned her neck to look in the direction of the Tie Family Village, wondering why Gu Qingxue had not come yet.
She had specially gone to the village just now to inquire about the news. They said that Gu Qingxue had finally woken up after sleeping for a whole day. Moreover, she had gone to check on the villagers’ conditions one by one.
The Tie Family Village was not too big. Gu Qingxue had spent so much time, so it should be their turn.
Bing’er waited for a while more, and could not help but urge the people around her, “Go and check on the situation. See why Gu Qingxue hasn’t come over yet.”
The little handmaiden beside her nodded obediently. Then, she jogged along the road to gather information.
On this side, Bing’er watched as the handmaiden left quickly. After that, she heard Princess Liuying’s hysterical cry coming from the tent behind her.
“Bing’er! Bing’er! What are you doing? Hurry up and come over!”
The muscles at the corner of Bing’er’s lips twitched rapidly. After she agreed, she quickly walked into the tent.
The moment Bing’er entered the tent, she almost fainted from the smell.
The smell in the tent could not be described in words. The stench was mixed together. It was not only the smell of excrement and vomit, because the dark sores on the three people’s bodies had already festered, there was also a faint rotting stench floating in the tent.
