Chapter 793: Underestimating the flu
Village head Gu did not think that such a calamity would strike their village so soon but this morning she heard from the neighbours who lived next to the Hu family say that they could hear the sound of coughing from the old Hu family, at first neither of them cared since Old Madam Hu was no longer young and she had to stay in the water for a long time when the flood happened, getting sick was nothing to worry about even Old Madam Hu did not take this matter seriously and this afternoon she even went to the fields to work.
But unfortunately for her, even though she went to the fields on her own two feet she did not return to her house on her feet, she had to be carried on a stretcher by the villagers who absolutely refused to touch Old Madam Hu who had fainted in the fields, they were worried that they will catch what Old Madam Hu was suffering from and when Doctor Gu was done checking up on Old Madam Hu and announced that the old woman was indeed suffering from flu, it was like she had announced the end of the world, till now Village head Gu could hear the sound of water splashing all over the houses of the village as the women who greeted and helped Old Madam Hu continued to take bath over and over again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYu Dong frowned when she heard that Old Madam Fu had caught the flu but she did not say anything. She knew that without getting in contact with the outsiders, it was impossible for Old Madam Hu to catch the flu which was running amok outside.
But she did not want to make things difficult for Old Madam Hu, her task was to let everyone know that they needed to stay away from outsiders, especially from the villagers who were affected by the flu, it depended on others whether they wanted to listen to her warning or not.
" Send the Hu family to the shack which I asked you to build with the villagers and have everyone stay away from the Hu family's house for now," Yu Dong ordered Village head Gu who looked rather scared of what was going on in the village. " No matter what the husbands of Old Madam Hu say bring them all back and at the same time ask the women who were guarding the village to be careful, I am afraid that Old Madam Hu's family might have invited trouble."
This was something Village head Gu was also afraid of, she could not understand just what was going on in the head of Old Madam Hu. She had specifically told those families whose sons were sent to the Big Stone village to stay away from the villagers but it looks like that Old Madam Hu and her family did not listen to her.
Village head Gu was half annoyed and half exasperated, it was fine if they wanted to make things difficult for themselves but there was no need for them to pull the entire village into danger right?
In the end, even if she wished to send Old Madam Hu's family to the big stone village where the mers who they seemed to be caring for were staying, Village head Gu still followed Yu Dong's orders. After all, Old Madam Hu was her old friend and she was well aware of the fact that this had something to do with Old Madam Hu's husbands than Old Madam Hu, herself!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVillage head Gu's doubts were right on the spot, Old Madam Hu had warned her husbands not to help their sons but the two of them could not harden their hearts for long. And to top it all, their sons who were sick and suffering came to ask for their help, they begged them to give them some food such that they will be able to survive this hard time which was why Old Madam Hu's husbands could not turn their pleading sons away and instead forked out as much ration as they could for their sons and sent them away.
They did not tell their wife that they have met their sons who were sick instead they hid the matter thinking that as long as they hid it properly no one will find anything amiss. After all, they stayed away from their sons and did not talk to them much, there was nothing to be scared about, at least that was what they thought but then when they woke up the next day, they were suffering from cold and fever.
Old Madam Hu's husbands were terrified they were afraid that if this matter was known to others they will think that they have brought trouble to the entire village which was why they did not dare to tell anyone about their worsening condition.
The two told Old Madam Hu that it was nothing but cold, saying that they caught this because of staying in the cold for so many weeks. Old Madam Hu trusted her husbands which was why she did not question them any further and believed what they said —— it just so happened that the two mers misinterpreted the dire consequences of catching this flu, and instead of going down, the flu continued to rise more and more and their bodies were burning up like they had built an inferno inside them.
And to make things difficult for them, Old Madam Hu also contracted the flu and her condition started to deteriorate. The two mers were scared silly and did not dare to say the truth, they did not think that this flu which they have only heard about was this scary…because of their foolishness they brought trouble to the entire village and did not dare to either step out of the house nor did they dare to tell the truth to their wife.
But the more they tried to hide it the more their condition worsened which was Doctor Gu who went to check up on them had a very solemn look on her face when she came out. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ Nov????lFire(.)nᴇt
