Chapter 68 Chao Chao: I'm going to get smallpox

Chao Chao looked at the small red dots on Gong Xingwen's body in disbelief, her pupils growing bigger and bigger.

She stood up suddenly, took a step back and ran quickly towards the front hall.

Yuanyuan looked up when he heard the noise, but only managed to see Chaochao's back. He muttered in surprise, "What happened to my sister? Why did she suddenly run away without a word?"

Gong Xingwen grabbed his arm again and said without looking up, "Maybe I have to pee urgently."

Yuanyuan thought about it and felt that it was possible. He continued to look down at the parts in front of him. He seemed to have an inspiration just now. He decided to try it quickly so that he could surprise Chaochao when she came back.

Yuanyuan was laughing, and Chaochao had already run quickly to the front hall.

Jian Yunsang and Song Zhen were discussing the affairs of the Chaoyang Foundation. There were several file bags on the table in front of them, which were just delivered to them by He Nanzhou.

He Nanzhou went to arrange the banquet. All relatives had already been notified, so they set the banquet time for a week later. It happened to be the weekend, so the children would have time to get together.

He Nanzhou was left to handle these matters. Jian Yunsang's family ties were weak, not even close to her own parents, let alone other relatives. They had rarely visited each other in recent years and were not local, so she did not inform anyone else except her parents. Anyway, her parents would tell her aunt and uncle about Chaochao's return.

At the moment, her mind is more on the charity foundation. Now that she has a direction and knows that she needs to do more good deeds, she naturally has to start preparing first.

When Chaochao ran over, Jian Yunsang had just put down a children's medical record. When he looked up, he saw the little girl panting.

Jian Yunsang immediately stood up and walked towards her, "Why did you come in? You're running so fast, are you thirsty..."

Unexpectedly, she hadn't taken a few steps when Chao Chao, who had already quickly stopped, suddenly yelled, "Mom, don't come over here."

She shouted so loudly that Jian Yunsang frightened her so much that she froze in place. Even Song Zhen was stunned and stood up.

"What happened to Chao Chao?"

"Mom, you, you don't come over here, you can't come near me." Chao Chao ran to the front hall and then remembered that she shouldn't have run in like this. She obviously had a phone watch and could call her mother, so why was she so impulsive?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but take two steps back, her voice slightly nervous and frightened, "Mom, I might, might not be well, please don't touch me."

Jian Yunsang frowned, his expression becoming serious. "What happened? Chaochao, don't be afraid."

"Mom, my good friend, Yuanyuan, has a lot of rashes on his body. It seems to be a symptom of smallpox. I heard that if you come into contact with someone who has smallpox, you will get it too. We were so close just now, I might also get a rash. So, so, Mom... don't come near me."

As she spoke, her voice began to tremble. Perhaps she knew how terrifying this thing was. Gradually, a hint of tears came into her tone, and her eyes quickly became blurry.

Chao Chao hurriedly raised her head, wiped her eyes, and was about to turn around and leave, but the next moment, she was picked up by Jian Yunsang.

Chao Chao opened her eyes wide, staring at her in shock. After realizing what was happening, she quickly reached out to push her, "Mom, put me down." Jian Yunsang hugged her tighter, smiled and pinched the tip of her nose, then gently wiped away her tears. "What nonsense? Smallpox? We don't have smallpox anymore. It was completely eradicated fifty or sixty years ago."

Chao Chao paused, then looked up in surprise, "Extinct, extinct?"

The people of Daqi were also stunned.

They were stunned. What did "extinction" mean? Smallpox was a terrifying disease. Once infected, at least two-thirds of the population would die, often wiping out half the entire city. How could such a diabolical disease, one that even the highest-ranking officials and the royal family were helpless to prevent, be extinct?

Emperor Jingxuan clutched the sleeves of his dragon robe tightly and stared at the sky nervously.

Smallpox, Emperor Jingxuan was very familiar with these two words.

His younger brother, who was born to the same mother, died of smallpox at the age of four.

He still remembers what happened back then vividly. In his mind, he can still see the symptoms of his younger brother being covered with blisters, the indifference of the late emperor who ordered the entire palace to be sealed off, the scene of the palace servants walking hurriedly and quietly, and the look of his queen mother hugging him tightly, crying silently but helpless.

These memories are so profound that even the palace where the emperor's younger brother lived is still vacant.

Smallpox, that was indeed a deadly disease. Even if all the skilled doctors from the Imperial Hospital and the common people were gathered together, they couldn't pull the person back from the brink of death.

Now you tell him that this epidemic that kills countless people every year has disappeared?

How is this possible? Could the disease completely disappear?
Countless Daqi people under the sky looked confused. If the sweet potato yield of 10,000 kilograms per mu in the sky filled a large number of people from poor families with hope, if the fact that everyone could read for free made many people envious, if the fact that mobile phones could connect with people thousands of miles away made dignitaries jealous, then the extinction of smallpox at this moment made all the people under the sky hold their breath.

Smallpox was not a rare disease in the entire Daqi. Even Chao Chao knew about the epidemic. Naturally, most people had heard of it. Many people had even contracted it, and many people had lost their loved ones because of it.

Including Hu Laifu, he no longer had the intention to secretly compete with Jiang Laosan and others. Chao Chao knew about smallpox because Hu Laifu's brother died of this disease when he was a child.

Worse still, after word got out that his brother had smallpox, the entire village shunned him and his family. They weren't even allowed out of the house, and some even advocated burning his brother to death to prevent the disease from spreading to others.

Later, his brother died, but the smallpox was also passed on to his sister who took care of him. Two people in the Hu family died that year. Hu Laifu then became the only son of the Hu family and was spoiled by his parents until he became what he is today.

However, every time he talked about his brothers and sisters, Hu Lai Fu would be in a bad mood, holding the wine jug to drink, and then start to act crazy after drinking.

Chao Chao didn't know it at first, so he was beaten twice. Later, he carefully avoided it.

But she also learned about the terrible thing called smallpox. Even though she had never seen it, she had heard of the symptoms.

So, when she saw the rashes on Gong Xingwen's body, her first reaction was that it was smallpox, which is contagious.
