Chapter 59: The Source of Infection

The environment of Qingyou Pavilion is much worse, and there may be no one to take care of it in the flower bed, and the weeds have grown very deep.

The surrounding environment also feels bleak.

There was no one in the courtyard, and Thyme had seen the severity of the disease just now, so she thought that those maids should be in the house.

Thyme tightened the veil on her face and walked straight into the house.

It's a very simple courtyard, there is a room on the left and right sides of the main house, thyme walked into the room on the left first, the big collapse top, a little guy was lying on the bed with a pale face, and from time to time he was still coughing violently, and his eyes were closed, and it seemed that he should have been unconscious.

Thyme just glanced at it and walked behind the screen.

On a slightly shabby carved bed, a maid slept on the bed with a frown.

It's painful to look at the maid.

Thyme didn't wake the maid, turned around and went out and into the room on the right.

The room on the right is more simply furnished, with only a large carved bed.

Probably because a few maids and servants became ill too quickly, the house didn't have time to clean up, and the furniture in the house had a thick layer of ash.

Compared with the two people in the next room, the two maids in this room are obviously in better spirits, and the two of them seem to be just a little tired: "I'm a doctor, I have something to ask you." ”

Thyme stood on the edge of the bed and looked at the two of them and whispered.

The expressions of the two maids immediately became a little surprised.

They didn't expect that there would be a doctor who would treat them.

"Doctor, our disease may be contagious, so let's go out!"

A delicate-looking, probably only thirteen or fourteen-year-old maid lying on the bed, said with difficulty.

When Thyme heard this, she was still a little relieved.

This maid has a good heart.

Thyme glanced at the maid more, and continued in a low voice: "When I ask you, you must answer honestly, this is related to your life, don't hide it." ”

Both maids nodded.

"I ask you, did you notice anything wrong with your surroundings before you got sick, and did you eat differently than usual?"

Thyme is trying to find the source of infection.

The two little maids thought for a while, and the little maid sleeping in it said with difficulty: "We are all maids and maids who serve beside Childe, but we are all rough maids, and we are all just doing things in Childe's yard." There are no special things, we have to do the same thing every day...... ”

When the little maid said this, her mind fell into memories again.

Seeing this, Thyme changed her question: "As far as you know, is there anyone else in the Qin Mansion who has contracted this disease like you?" ”

The little maid shook her head: "No, the people in the childe's yard are sick, and none of the other yards are infected, and the sister Qingzhu in the childe's yard is not sick, and Sister Qingzhu is the big girl who is waiting by the child's side." ”

After the little maid said this, Thyme fell into deep thought.

The big maid beside Qin Xiao is logically the closest person to Qin Xiao, but why is she not infected, and the little maid and the little maid usually can't get close to Qin Xiao's body, why is she sick?

Intuition tells Thyme that there is something wrong with this matter.

Thinking of this, Thyme moved a stool next to the bed to the bedside, found a useless handkerchief in the room and wiped it, and then sat down.

"You bring your hands over and I'll check the pulse, I'm also looking for a cure for this disease now, you have to hold on."

Thyme stopped talking after speaking.

The veins of the two maids are the same as Qin Xiao's, the veins are chaotic, but the veins of the two maids are a little stronger than Qin Xiao's.

After taking the pulse, Thyme stood up: "Think about it again, in the past two days today and yesterday, have you encountered anything special, or eaten anything special, if you remember, you will tell me, I will go to the next room to check the pulse of the other two." ”

Thyme's hope is only pinned on these two maids, after all, these two maids have the best spirit.

The two in the other room have fallen into a coma, and even if Thyme wants to ask, she can't ask why.

Thyme entered another room and finished checking the pulse of the two people who had fallen into a coma, when she heard a maid crying out in the next room.

"Doctor......

Thyme heard the voice and immediately walked over.

"Did you think of something?"

Thyme asked in a low voice.

The maid nodded, and then said, "Today we are normal, but yesterday there was something to ...... I don't know if it has anything to do with this. The little maid stopped talking.

Thyme motioned to the maid and said, and the maid said, "Doctor, I'll tell you about this, don't tell anyone else!" If the steward finds out, we will be punished again. ”

Thyme nodded, expressing her willingness to keep it secret, and the maid said with confidence: "Here's the thing, yesterday Gongzi came back from outside and brought back a bag of pastries, the pastry was said to be bought from the best jade food in the city, or Gongzi personally queued up to buy it, and then Gongzi ate some, and put the pastries in the gazebo, when a few of us went to clean up, we took two of them greedily, and the four of us ate them secretly, the pastry was really delicious, soft and glutinous, and very sweet." ”

When the little maid talked about eating, her spirit seemed to be much better.

Thyme was now pensive.

"Do you know if you can eat this pastry?"

The little maid immediately shook her head: "We don't know, we are rough maids, and we usually don't serve by the side of the son, and we have to keep a distance from the son." ”

Thyme frowned, a little suspicious of the pastry, but not sure in her heart.

If it's really because of the pastry, then it's okay to say, if not, then she has to re-investigate.

"Rest well, I'll come and see you later."

After saying that, Thyme walked out of the Qingyou Pavilion.

Xiao Jing waited anxiously outside, his face a little anxious.

Seeing Thyme walk out, his face finally relaxed: "Doctor Baili and the others have nothing to do!" ”

Xiao Jing was also serving in Qin Xiao's courtyard, and Thyme seemed to have heard Xiao Jing say it.

At that moment, Thyme asked, "Xiaojing, let me ask you, did you eat the pastries that your son-in-law brought back last night?" ”

Xiao Jing immediately shook his head when he heard this: "I didn't eat it, my son told me to eat it, but I don't like to eat sweet things, so I didn't eat it." ”

"Then do you usually serve by your son-in-law's side?"

Xiao nodded: "Sister Qingzhu and I are both serving by the side of Childe." ”

When Thyme heard this, her eyes lit up: "Then do you know if Qingzhu ate that pastry yesterday?" ”

Xiaojing immediately shook his head: "No, Sister Qingzhu is like me, she doesn't like sweets." ”
