Yan Aohan had originally planned to visit the security company after the banquet. Although daily operations were now handled by Zhang Haifeng, she needed to clarify some matters before leaving. However, right after finishing the handover, she heard news that eighty percent of the townships in Sicheng Town had children suffering from chickenpox. She rushed back immediately, mainly wanting to hear Zhu Yanyi’s understanding of the situation.
In ancient times, chickenpox was a dangerous infectious disease, comparable to cholera. With modern medical development, it was generally not a problem if prevention and care were good, especially after children received vaccinations. The fact that chickenpox still appeared under such strong preventive measures was abnormal.
"Uncle Shun Yao, where is Ani?" Yan Aohan asked Zhu Shun Yao upon returning to the Zhu residence, not seeing Zhu Yanyi.
Zhu Shun Yao replied, "Ani went to the treatment room to prepare medicine."
"What medicine?" Yan Aohan asked.
"Medicine for chickenpox." Zhu Shun Yao did not hide anything. "Didn't Old Zhang bring her daughter here for help earlier? Ani told me that Little Hong wasn't just having a fever, but had chickenpox. Fortunately, Ani saved her in time, so Little Hong is fine now. But when Ani asked me to find Lei Yao to prepare prevention for all the village children, we heard that four children in Niou Ou Village had chickenpox. Ani said this season is not when chickenpox usually breaks out, so something must be wrong. She has already asked Luo Gang and others to investigate, but treating the current cases is the most important thing, so she went to prepare medicine."
Yan Aohan nodded, understanding the situation. She knew Zhu Yanyi would definitely act if she knew about the chickenpox. It seemed her trip to the capital would be delayed by a few days, but this was manageable.
Zhu Yanyi came out soon, holding a large bag of medicine. She handed it to Zhu Shun Yao. "Dad, have someone boil three big buckets of water down to one bucket, then dilute it into ten buckets. Use a spray tank to spray every household in the village. Remember not to miss any corners. Most importantly, spray the trash cans thoroughly. Also, tell Uncle Lei Yao that garbage disposal must be clean these days." She added, "By the way, Dad, have Uncle Lei Yao notify the village heads of nearby villages to come here to get the medicine. It’s the same medicine you are spraying."
"I’ll handle this," Yan Aohan said directly. "I will call the town government to send people to spray it directly. It saves the trouble of issuing orders step by step."
"Okay, let Brother Yan Aohan handle it," Zhu Yanyi said without hesitation. Yan Aohan’s approach was indeed the most appropriate.
"Ani, eighty percent of the townships in Sicheng Town already have chickenpox patients. Is your medicine enough?" Yan Aohan asked.
Zhu Yanyi frowned slightly. "Why are there so many infected areas in this season?" She continued, "I feel like there is something behind this. My intuition is usually accurate."
"Yes, I have already asked Haifeng to investigate. We should have news soon. For now, the urgent task is to treat the patients and absolutely prevent the chickenpox from spreading further," Yan Aohan said. He did not want Sicheng Town to become a severe epidemic zone.
