"Don't fan me, fan yourself. Look at you, sweating all over." Yang Ruqing said.

Luo Fengtang smiled dismissively, "It's nothing, I'll just take a cold shower later."

"No, you can't take a cold shower. You must use hot water, or let the hot water cool down before washing. You are not allowed to use cold water!" she said with a serious face.

Luo Fengtang was stunned for a moment, then she remembered her previous precautions and quickly nodded.

“Well, you say what you want!” he said.

Yang Ruqing nodded, turned her head, and glanced at the medical book in front of her.

Frowning in thought.

Luo Fengtang seeing this, asked: "Still haven't found a suitable remedy, have you?"

Yang Ruqing hummed softly, her mood somewhat downcast.

Luo Fengtang said: "For everything, just do your best, and leave the rest to fate. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Yang Ruqing nodded lightly and said in a low voice, "I didn't dare to speak up in the main hall just now, for fear of causing panic."

I'm worried, Sister-in-law Jinhua's death is just the beginning.

A cool breeze paused for a moment.

Luo Fengtang’s pupils dilated, then his thick brows slowly furrowed together.

“When I was in the Confederate Army, I heard White Uncle tell me a story.”

He said that several years ago, there was a similar plague in the northern Yizhou area. In just a few days, almost all the villagers in several villages were on the verge of death.

"The road was littered with corpses."

"It wasn't just the common people who couldn't afford treatment or get good medicine. Even some wealthy landowners and affluent individuals in the region, when they were infected, were left to die."

"This alarmed the imperial court, which sent troops to directly seal off the area. They dug a large pit and piled the bodies inside, and burned down several villages."

“What was burned were not only houses and trees, but also those patients who were near death, and even one or two young children who had not yet been infected.”

But in that situation, no one dared to feel sympathy.

"Later, when Bai Shu and his men marched through that area, the former village and fields had become deserted wilderness."

“Besides the roadside grass, one or two large pieces of fire-scorched tiles can occasionally be found, proving that this place was once bustling with life and people...”

After hearing Luofengtang's words, Yang Ruqing tugged at the corner of her mouth, revealing a wry smile.

This is a tricky one! It seems like you're asking me to translate the content *between* the `

` tags, but keep the `

` tags themselves in English. Please provide me with the text between the `

` tags and I'll be happy to translate it for you! ?

"If this plague continues to worsen, our village will also be unable to escape this misfortune," she said.

Luo Fengtang reached out and tightly held Yang Ruqing's hand.

“Don’t be afraid, Qing'er. When it truly comes to that desperate situation, I will definitely find a way to take you, as well as your parents and younger siblings, out of here!”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

To put it simply, he is one of the outstanding young generals in Daqi, holding military power.

He still has the ability to protect those closest to him.

Hearing his words, Yang Ruqing shook her head.

“This is my home, I'm a sentimental person.”

"Besides, even if we could run away with our parents and younger siblings, our parents each have their own concerns and people they want to take with them!"

“My father certainly wouldn’t abandon my grandparents. My mother couldn't bear to leave her parents-in-law.”

"And my grandmother and grandpa, they too, have their own bonds."

“So, escaping is unrealistic. I want to fight to the end!” she said.

Luo Fengtang looked at her with a complicated expression.

After a moment of silence, a glimmer of admiration flashed in his eyes.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Okay, I'll stay with you to the end!" he said.

Yang Ruqing glanced at him and smiled with satisfaction.

"Alright, I've rested enough. I need to get back to researching and find a cure for the plague! That's the real way to win this."

Here is the translation:<<<

That night, she searched for medical books in the warehouse all night.

He fanned her all night long.

Not until the rooster in the backyard crowed for the third time did she realize that a whole night had passed.

This night's vigil wasn't in vain, though she still hadn't found a cure. But in her heart, there was no longer a sense of confusion and aimlessness.

How to fight this plague, she already had a glimmer of an idea in her mind.

"Your arms must be tired," she said, glancing at his hand gripping the fan handle with a smile.

He shook his head. "It's okay."

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

She pouted, "Hold out your hand."

He was startled for a moment, then extended his hand as instructed.

She grasped his arm, her ten delicate fingers gently kneading the muscles on his arm.

“Are you still going to that plot of land in Yujia Village today?” she asked as she kneaded.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Mm." He nodded.

Post-disaster reconstruction is a massive undertaking.

At this moment, they are busy enough just repairing those houses on the brink of collapse.

"When you go to Yujiacun, be extra careful and keep a close eye on whether anyone in the nearby villages has contracted the plague."

She admonished him.

"Once you find something, report it immediately. Understand?"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Hmm!"

“You can still nap for a while, hurry back to the house to sleep, otherwise you won't have the energy to repair the house tomorrow.”

She took her arm away from him and urged him on.

Luo Fengtang nodded, feeling the soreness in his arm had noticeably eased. He grinned at her.

“Qing'er’s massage is really good, my arm feels so much better now.” he said.

She smiled and winked. "Go back to bed," she said.

>

"Well, aren't you going to sleep?" he asked, seeing her still sitting there.

Yang Ruqing immediately stood up: "I need to take a shower before I can sleep."

“Qing'er, Qing'er, have you heard? Two people in Yujia Village died last night, and several others came down with the plague!”

In the morning, Yang Ruohong was washing clothes by the pond when Cao Baimei ran up to her like a gust of wind.

"Ah?"

Yang Ruqing was startled, and the club in her hand fell into the water.

"The Yongjin Construction Team is building houses in Yujia Village. If they get infected, Yongjin will be finished! What are we going to do?"

Cao Baimei's eyes were welling up with tears. She grasped Yang Ruoheng's hand, her whole body trembling.

Yang Ruqing's hand was also icy cold.

"The epidemic has worsened, no, I have to immediately call my second brother and the others back!"

She said, turned and ran toward home, not even bothering to wash her clothes. She didn't even grab the basin, tub, or soap flakes.

By the time they arrived home, Mu Zichuan, Lao Yangtou, Yang Huanan, and Li Zheng were already there.

A crowd of people were discussing the matter of Yu Jia Village, their faces grave. Lao Yangtou and Yang Huanan were especially restless, like ants on a hot pan.

Seeing Yang Ruqing and Cao Baimei run in from the door, Lao Yang rushed forward.

An old man grabbed Yang Ruoqing's arm and trembled, "Oh dear, oh dear, the plague has reached our Yu family village, someone else has died." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Your fourth uncle and second brother went to Yujia Village early this morning to build a house. Qing'er, come on quickly, they listen to you, hurry up and call them back!

Yang Hu'an also rushed over and said the same thing to Lao Yangtou.

Yang Ruqing's brow furrowed.
