Chapter 230: Leaving Beijing

Liao Wenqing was originally a fun-loving person, and he was also a frequent visitor to those places of drinking and feasting in Anyang Mansion back then. It's just that since I got acquainted with the Lin family's lady by chance, I gradually intervened in the Liao family's business, and gradually succeeded my father Liao Jiacheng and became the manager of the Liao family's business. Of course, business needs, banquets, customer handover relationships will also go to teahouses, restaurants, and even fireworks alleys, but there is no more of the waves of youth.

Today, after learning about Qin Zheng, the Marquis of Jingbei, Liao Wenqing went to Luoxiaju outside Xihua Gate.

The time when he came over was unfortunate, it was the end of noon, just after lunch, and it was not yet time for dinner, so there were not many people in Luoxiaju.

In the pre-Song Dynasty, the Chinese people were still accustomed to having two meals a day, breakfast was generally in Chenshi, so Chenshi was also called 'food time', and dinner was generally in Shenshi, so Shenshi was also used to be called 'feeding time'. As soon as the Ming Dynasty was founded, Emperor Taizu was accustomed to three meals, and many families changed it, but many families retained the habit of two meals a day for various reasons. Yi Liao Wenqing was not in a hurry, after entering Luoxia Residence, he picked a table by the window in the lobby and sat down, ordered a few dishes and a pot of wine, and let the four guards also sit on the table next to him, only let frankincense accompany him, and the master and servant poured and drank, and sat and waited for the feeding. In addition, this Luoxia Ju is facing the Xihua Gate, and the general officials who are not in the court want to enter the palace from the Zhenghua Gate, and the other seasons are to enter and exit the palace through the Xihua Gate. If Qin Zheng came out of the palace, he would be able to see it for the first time.

After drinking a pot of wine slowly, it was already the end of Shen, Liao Wenqing still did not wait for Qin Zheng to come out, although he was disappointed in his heart, he was more worried.

Qin Zheng was in a coma for a day and a night, and when he woke up, he struggled to enter the palace to ask for guilt, and now it was another night and a day, but he was not punished by anything, but he was afraid that his body would not be able to hold it......

Liao Wenqing was looking out of the Xihua Gate worriedly, and a person came out of the Xihua Gate, Liao Wenqing was far away, and he couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, only to see that this person was not tall, slightly hunched, and wearing a blue and gray shirt, which was very thin.

Liao Wenqing was slightly happy in his heart, and said in his heart that this person came out of the palace, the Marquis of Jingbei has a big matter, and the news must be widely spread, maybe he can ask something from this person's mouth.

Standing up with shaking clothes, Liao Wenqing was thinking about how to get out of the palace to collude with the people who came out of this palace, and asked for some news, but in a wrong eye, he saw two people coming out of nowhere outside Luoxia's residence, and the two people looked even more chilling, a forty or fifty-year-old hunched woman with a stick, supported by a six or seven-year-old girl, with a dull face, ragged clothes, and walked out with a drag, and walked towards the people who came out of the palace.

Liao Wenqing's eyes flashed, and he glanced at frankincense, frankincense understood, got up and walked out.

After a while, frankincense turned back, leaned over and said in Liao Wenqing's ear: "Master, that is the little father-in-law in the palace, those two are his grandmother and sister-in-law, and the family can't go on, so he points to this little father-in-law from time to time to send some money out to help him live." However, the little one also saw it, and the little father-in-law just now also sent a tael of silver out...... Seeing that the little father-in-law's legs and feet were a little dragged, I was afraid that he was injured. ”

Liao Wenqing frowned slightly, slapped his palm with a fan for a moment, and commanded in a low voice: "You go, so, so ......"

Frankincense listened intently, nodded again and again, and beckoned the two guards out of the door.

After that, the two guards pretended to be drunk and rushed into the three grandchildren, but they were arrogant and wanted to beat people. Liao Wenqing took frankincense to persuade him, and let frankincense help the old lady into Luoxiaju, and put on refreshments to suppress the shock. After some work, the three grandparents were naturally grateful to him. Liao Wenqing also got acquainted with his little father-in-law Xishun as he wished. It's just that what disappointed him was that Xishun was just a little eunuch in charge of the flowers and trees in Xihua Gate, and he was far away from the front, but he saw Jingbei Hou enter the palace yesterday evening, but he didn't know what else happened to Lu Dao.

Liao Wenqing was disappointed in his heart, but he didn't show it, and a few words came out of the mouths of the three ancestors and grandchildren, their hometown is also from Nanzhili, but it is from Zhengding Mansion. Liao Wenqing talked about the friendship of the villagers, arranged for frankincense to send the Xishun grandmother Qian and her sister back, and extended the doctor to catch the medicine, Xishun thanked him gratefully, and hurried back to the palace.

Xishun took advantage of the vacancy on duty to buy off the Xihuamen guards out of the palace, and did not dare to delay for too long. Before leaving, Liao Wenqing instructed that if there was something to do, he could stay in Luoxia, and let him be on an errand in the palace with peace of mind, and when he sent him out, he also quietly stuffed a silver ingot of ten taels to him.

Sending away the three ancestors and grandchildren of Xishun, Liao Wenqing sat in Luoxiaju until dark, and did not see Qin Zheng, Marquis of Jingbei, out of the palace, doubtful and worried, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to return home with frankincense and four guards.

Early in the morning of the second day, Liao Wenqing went to the Jingbei Hou Mansion again, this time there was finally news of the Jingbei Hou Qin Zheng, it turned out that after Qin Zheng entered the palace, he knelt down outside the Qianqing Palace to plead guilty, and without waiting for the emperor to summon him, he fainted outside the Qianqing Palace, and was left by the emperor in the duty room outside the Qianqing Palace, and asked the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment, until he woke up last night, and was sent back to the Jingbei Hou Mansion by the emperor.

Although the Marquis of Jingbei closed his door due to illness, Liao Wenqing knew that Qin Zheng had not been convicted, and he didn't seem to have the intention of adding guilt to the emperor's intentions, so he was a little relieved.

"Please ask the big housekeeper to send greetings to Master Hou!" Liao Wenqing thanked the polite but implicitly alienated housekeeper of the Hou Mansion and said goodbye. But he didn't go home, he just wandered around the teahouses and restaurants, collecting all kinds of news.

This teahouse restaurant is really an excellent place to collect news, three days later, Liao Wenqing got the news, Jingbei Hou's condition was a little slow, so he asked for a cut of the knighthood. The next day, Liao Wenqing heard another news, saying that the Marquis of Jingbei had once again gone up to the fold to ask for guilt and asked him to leave Beijing.

Liao Wenqing heard about this news in Luoxiaju, and the excerpt of just inviting him out of Beijing was obviously not very noticeable, and the person who mentioned this matter also mentioned it in one sentence, so he talked about another news in the past few days. The queen is looking for a suitable candidate for the princess of Fu'an.

The eldest princess of Fu'an is the royal sister of today, she is not young, she has had a marriage before, the first concubine was eighteen-year-old in high school, and she was really a personable and good-looking young man. It's just that Tanhualang is gentle and elegant, and his family background is not obvious, after being recruited as the concubine of the eldest princess of Fu'an, he couldn't stand the eldest princess's arrogance, and it didn't take long for him to be depressed in his chest and body, and he died of depression at the age of twenty-three. The eldest princess of Fu'an became a widow, but she also regained her freedom.

This time, she learned the lessons of her last marriage and vowed not to look for a 'petty' man again, but to find an atmospheric hero. As a result, the young hero Qin Zheng, the Marquis of Jingbei, got her blue eyes.

But as soon as he made such a fuss, Qin Zheng even asked for his title to be removed, obviously unwilling to be a colt. This Qin Zheng was originally born in Liang Guogong, and he has made outstanding achievements, so naturally he was not at the mercy of others like the Tanhualang back then...... Even if the emperor and queen are not able to force people to marry, the eldest princess of Fu'an can only give up at that point!

Then, the two of them muttered about who would be able to be recruited by the royal family this time.

One of them laughed lewdly: "...... This one is threatening to find a hero, hehe, I just don't know if this hero who is about to be selected can live in harmony with those in the princess's mansion......"

The other sipped his wine and shook his head with a smile: "Who knows this way, but since he is an atmospheric hero, he naturally has to be broad-minded!" ”

After that, the two laughed quietly.

Liao Wenqing raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but laugh a little. Before, I only said that the princess was just arrogant, but I didn't expect that she was still keen on raising noodles...... Such a princess, no wonder Jingbei Hou reacted so violently!

However, Liao Wenqing's smile only flashed, and he thought of Jingbei Marquis Qin Zheng's 'going out of Beijing to heal' years ago...... Now that the epidemic situation in Anyang Mansion is unknown, Jingbei Hou should not be in danger!

Liao Wenqing sat in Luoxia Ju for two hours, and he didn't notice when the two people next to him left. However, he didn't sit in vain for half a day, and he thought of a way to persuade his parents to let him leave Beijing.

Although Liao Wenqing has been going out every day these days, he is just making teahouses and restaurants, and Mrs. Gao gradually let go, thinking that her youngest son has given up the idea of leaving Beijing, and her attention has not been so strict.

On this day, Liao Wenqing made an exception and went home before dark, and as soon as he entered the house, he asked his father to go straight to the study.

“…… We are sheltered in the Qin family and the Tang family, and now that something like this has happened, Jingbei Hou and other figures will also go out of Beijing to avoid trouble, it is difficult to say that I am not being targeted, after all, our soap is in the limelight in the capital, and there are not a few people who are red-eyed. If someone finds out about my relationship with the Qin family, there is still a possibility that someone will block the cannon fodder......"

Liao Jiacheng has been up and down in the business world for many years, and his experience is much richer than that of Liao Wenqing. He also thought of his youngest son's analysis, but he was still very pleased that his youngest son's eyesight and analysis had made great progress.

Liao Jiacheng didn't speak for a long time, holding a cup of tea and meditating silently.

Liao Wenqing finished talking about the matter, and then told his guess, seeing that his father was silent in thought, he didn't dare to say anything, just waited anxiously.

After a long time, Liao Jiacheng let out a long breath, and Liao Wenqing hurriedly stepped forward to replace Liao Jiacheng's cold tea with hot one. Liao Jiacheng looked at his diligent youngest son by his side and sighed secretly again. What this kid said about the Qin family and the Tang family, although there is some truth, he knows very well that the youngest son is not in such a hurry to leave Beijing for this reason.

Alas, that's it, that woman can be regarded as brave and resourceful, and she is such a prodigy in the pharmaceutical business, and if she marries her youngest son, it will also make the Liao family's family situation go to the next level.

"What you said is not unreasonable...... Liao Jiacheng said slowly.

Liao Wenqing's face was overjoyed, but he quickly restrained his joy and asked with a smile: "Daddy really thinks so?" ”

Liao Jiacheng raised his eyes to see his son's joy that he couldn't hide, lowered his eyes and sighed, and said, "Well, you just pack up and leave Beijing for a while, your mother's place, I'll go and say!" ”

"Hey, Xie Lu, Xie Dad!" Liao Wenqing was overjoyed, and the joy on his face could no longer be hidden.

"You kid don't have to thank me first, I still haven't finished speaking!" Liao Jiacheng looked at his son who looked nervous, and said lightly, "Your trip to Beijing this time is extraordinary, I'll pick a few guards for you to bring, remember that no matter where you go, you can't let them leave...... There is another thing, before entering Anyang, you must inquire about the epidemic situation, if the epidemic has not reached Anyang, you can only go home. Moreover, after returning to Anyang, you must not risk yourself......"

Speaking of this, Liao Jiacheng paused, looked at Liao Wenqing and said, "If you can't agree to what I say......"

"Dad, when did your son say no, what you said was for the good of your son, how could your son not agree!" Liao Wenqing hurriedly stopped Liao Jiacheng's words and expressed his attitude eagerly.

Liao Jiacheng heard his son's agreement, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you go and pack your luggage and prepare." You'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”

Liao Wenqing responded happily, and then said with some worry: "Where is my mother...... Or the father told his mother that his son just went to the workshop......"

Hearing that his son also took into account his mother's feelings, Liao Jiacheng was slightly relieved, thought for a while, and nodded: "The workshop is outside the city...... Inappropriate. Let's just say that you followed the caravan to the outside of the gate! At this time, it is also the season for our Liao family to go to collect ginseng outside the customs, and your mother knows the way, so she will not be suspicious. ”

After speaking, Liao Jiacheng looked at Liao Wenqing, the faint worry in his eyes made Liao Wenqing's heart shake, and he hurriedly bowed down and saluted, and said solemnly: "Daddy, don't worry, the child is going to Beijing this time to avoid trouble, and he will cherish himself and will not do anything to worry his father." ”

Liao Jiacheng eased his color, and after bowing his head slightly, he sent Liao Wenqing out.

With the support of the old man, Liao Wenqing's departure from Beijing became simpler. When I packed my luggage that night and said goodbye to my mother, Mrs. Gao, I inevitably listened to some nagging again, but it was mostly my mother's concern and worry, Liao Wenqing was naturally not stubborn, and even used her coquettish skills to make Mrs. Gao laugh.

Before dawn on the second day, Liao Wenqing took the little girl frankincense and the eight guards arranged by Liao Jiacheng out of the capital by car, all the way south to Tongzhou, and then abandoned the car and boarded the boat, went down the river, and went straight to Anyang.

In the blink of an eye, it has been three days since Qiu Chen entered the epidemic area.

On the first day, 126 patients were sent to the temple, 27 more were sent during the night, and six died that day.

The next day, a total of 97 patients were admitted to the temple in one day and night, and the death toll was relatively high that day, with 16 deaths. Nine of them were critically ill patients on the first day.

On the third day, 89 patients were admitted to the temple, and the death toll remained high that day, with 21 deaths. Two of them were critically ill patients on the first day and eight were critically ill patients on the second day.

Today, a total of 339 people have been received in the Guangong Temple, 43 have died, and 296 people are currently in storage. To Qiu Chen and everyone's delight, among the nearly 300 people, 32 people have no symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea, and seven or eight of them are no longer bedridden, but help their families to do some nursing work for other patients. Another thing that makes everyone happy is that since entering the Guan Gong Temple, these family members who have been in close contact with the patients and cared for the patients have only seven diseases. This shows that the prescription prescribed by Qiu Chen has a definite curative effect, and it also shows that the prevention and control measures proposed by Qiu Chen are also very effective. It is estimated that the seven family members who fell ill were most likely infected before entering the temple.

Wu Yunqiao led the officials to inspect the villages and towns below every day, sending the sick patients to the nearest centralized isolation point, and at the same time urging the people in the villages and towns to implement prevention and control measures, so as to reduce the continuous infection.

Then, every morning and evening, Wu Yunqiao would come to Guan Gong Temple to ask, and every time he got the news, he was even happier.

After another five days, fewer patients were brought in day by day, and only 37 people were brought in on the most recent day. The number of deaths is also decreasing day by day, with thirteen deaths in the last day. At this time, there were already nearly 500 people in Guangong Temple, and 13 of the 500 people died, which was much smaller than the initial mortality rate.

Qiu Chen wore a mask and an isolation gown sewn for her by Chen, and sat in the courtyard with her hands tied. She didn't have to look back, she also knew that the big pit behind the house was burning corpses again. The disgusting smell was strong and unusual, overpowering the smell of the patients' vomiting.

Every time at this time, Qiu Chen felt particularly depressed. She tilted her face slightly, looking at the gradually sinking twilight, and her mind was full of one thing, when would this smell no longer appear......

Qin Li, Zeng Da Niu and Chen followed Qiu Chen into the epidemic area, and they have been following the guards left and right, and these days, Qin Li and Zeng Da Niu have been doing dirty and heavy work such as carrying water, burying filth, and even burning corpses. At the beginning, Chen was responsible for the food and drinking water of Qiu Chen's several people, making masks and isolation gowns for several people, cleaning and disinfecting everyone's dirty clothes, and taking time to help Qiu Chen care for those patients who had no one to take care of.

At this time, seeing Qiu Chen sitting in the courtyard again, with a heavy expression, Chen came over and reminded Qiu Chen: "Madam, it's not early, you can wash and eat." Si'er and the dog are much better today, they have just been sent to eat, and they have eaten a lot! ”

Si'er and the dog are the youngest patients sent in, the fourth little girl is only three years old, the dog is even smaller, just two weeks old, these two children are almost impossible when they are sent in, or Qiu Chen has a set of enemas in the medicine box, and the two children are filled with medicine and sugar and salt water, and they actually snatched the lives of the two children from the hands of the king of Hades. At this time, the condition improved, although the two children were still very weak, because of the strong vomiting caused by the complexion is not good, but the two pairs of eyes are bright and black, people laugh when they tease, it is really lovely.

Speaking of Si'er and the dog, Qiu Chen couldn't help but think of Ah Fu and Ah Manlai, it has been nine days since she came in, and she only knows that there is no epidemic in Anping County, but she is not very clear about what the situation is at home. Parents and kids are all right!

Shaking his head and putting aside his untimely emotions, Qiu Chen carefully washed his hands and face and began to eat dinner. In order to avoid the infection caused by insufficient hand hygiene, Qiu Chen made further adjustments, trying not to touch food and water with his hands. Eat and drink with a sterilized spoon and chopsticks. At first, everyone was a little unaccustomed to it, but after seven or eight days of adaptation, everyone has basically become accustomed to not touching food with their hands.

After dinner, Chen took the dishes and chopsticks and went down to wash and disinfect, Qiu Chen took a short rest, and was about to check on the patient again, Qin Li said loudly: "Madam, Master Hou is out of Beijing!" ”

Qiu Chen was wearing a mask, but he could still see that her eyebrows were raised: "Didn't he have a recurrence of his old injury?" Already healed? ”

Qin Li glanced at Zeng Da Niu in disdain, Zeng Da Niu lowered his head very unrighteously, looking like he was out of the matter. Qin Li glared at Zeng Da Niu angrily, but there were no eyes on the back of his head, so he couldn't see his resentment and threat at all.

There was no way, Qin Li had no choice but to face Qiu Chen's inquiry alone: "That, Master Hou's injury has not healed......"

Qiu Chen stared at Qin Li for a while, closed his eyes vigorously, got up without saying a word, and went directly to inspect the patient.

Zeng Da Niu raised his head in a daze, looked at Qiu Chen's back and poked Qin Li, and muttered in a low voice, "You say, what do you mean by this, madam?" Is this concerned about Master Hou? ”

Qin Li raised his hand and slapped Zeng Da Niu on the back of the head, grinding his teeth and said, "Don't you pretend to be stupid and deaf now?" ”

Zeng Da Niu sneered, jumped up neatly and stepped back, and said, "What, I'll go and see if Madame has any ......orders."

As he spoke, he was about to slip away, but was quickly pulled back by Qin Li's eyes, Zeng Da Niu was about to open his mouth to beg for mercy, but saw Qin Li carrying a clean mask and threw it over: "Put on a mask, you don't want to die!" ”

Zeng Da Niu smiled flatteringly, nodded his head and wore a mask, and listened to Qin Li, who was also wearing a mask, sighed: "Master, I don't understand this matter either...... Alas, that's not something we can worry about. Anyway, the master is coming, so worry about it when the master comes! ”

Zeng Da Niu also looked depressed and said, "Ye won't really come here, right?" There are still injuries on my body! ”

Qin Li shook his head: "I don't know how to do it, we can't do it here...... Alas, even if we are not here, there is no reason for you to listen to us. Okay, let's not worry about it here, Madame, these methods are easy to use, even if the master is here, there should be no danger...... Maybe ......"

The two looked at each other, and Zeng Da Niu smiled: "If you want me to say that it is not maybe, Madame will definitely be very moved, and the good thing of the master should be near!" ”

"You kid!" Qin Li scolded with a smile and slapped Zeng Da Niu, and the two of them went to work together with a smile.

On the twelfth day of Qiu Chen's entry into the epidemic area, the number of patients sent in was reduced to 19, while the number of patients in Guangong Temple achieved zero deaths on the first day. The crowd was encouraged.

The 30 or so people who had initially recovered had no symptoms, and although they were still a little weak, they refused to lie on the bed and wait for others to serve them, and they began to wear masks and do their part to help with various tasks.

With the help of these people, the family members who came in at the beginning have been able to do their own work skillfully, and Tian Langzhong is in charge, Qiu Chen has been able to breathe a sigh of relief on the first day since he entered the Guangong Temple, took a hot bath and changed into clean clothes for disinfection, and left the Guangong Temple.

It's been almost half a month since I came in, and there are not many medicinal materials left for some of the big consumption, so I need to send some more. There are also some nutritious ingredients to be sent in, and some patients who have snatched their lives from the hands of Hades have recovered from the epidemic, but their bodies are very weak, and they urgently need to use more refined food to increase nutrition.

Of course, as the effect of the treatment work gradually appeared, she began to think strongly about her children and relatives at home.

In the past few days, she has seen too many partings of life and death, too much sadness and despair of the living, and the unwillingness and concern of the dead...... Too many negative emotions accumulate into a heavy mental and psychological burden, which overwhelms her and makes her mentally exhausted...... The feelings condensed between life and death touched her deeply, and it also made her miss her family and children very much, and she especially wanted to go back to home, to the place where she could completely relax.

Coming out of the Guan Gong Temple, the situation they saw along the way was much better than when they first arrived in Qinghe County, the garbage scattered everywhere on the street, the wanton sewage could not be seen, the people on the street were much cleaner, and their mental outlook was much better, no longer as desperate and numb as when she first met, but there was hope again, and even some people could see smiles on their faces.

Qiu Chen and the four of them entered the Guangong Temple almost immediately after arriving in Qinghe County, and almost no one on the street knew them, and it was precisely because of their unfamiliar faces that they received frequent attention from the people on the street.

Finally, someone came up and asked, "Are you from outside?" Are we clear? ”

Qiu Chen looked at the other three and said with a smile: "We are indeed from outside, but we are only here for half a month. ”

The man was very puzzled, and when he was about to ask, a servant happened to pass by, and when he saw Qiu Chen, several people immediately rushed over to give a salute: "I've seen Mr. Qiu!" ”

As he spoke, the official turned around and said loudly to the people on the street: "This is Mr. Qiu who saved all of us, it is he who sent prescriptions for the treatment of epidemics and prevention and control methods in danger, and he has been treating those patients in Guangong Temple...... Without him, we might have died of illness by now! ”

The words of this official were very unexpected by Qiu Chen, and after being slightly stunned, Qiu Chen waved his hand again and again to stop the official who was going to continue, and arched his hand towards the gradually gathering crowd, escorted by Qin Li and Zeng Daniu, and took the Chen family out of the crowd and hurried away.

As soon as he stepped into the gate of the county government, Qiu Chen wiped his sweat and let out a long breath.

Zeng Daniu said with excitement on his face: "Those people regard our wife as a benefactor...... Hehe, even if they have a little conscience, our lady risked her life to come and treat them......"

Qiu Chen turned around and stopped with some tears and laughter: "I can't say this anymore. I'm just trying to keep the epidemic from spreading to my home, but I'm not as noble as you say......"

Seeing that Zeng Da Niu was about to say it disappreciatively, Qiu Chen restrained his face and said, "Yes, we did save them, but we can't say this...... Well, there is a suspicion of buying the hearts and minds of the people. ”

Qiu Chen's voice lowered a little after the last sentence, but Qin Li, Zeng Daniu, and Chen all heard it clearly. After all, they came out of that kind of family, Qin Li and Zeng Daniu were Qin Zheng's personal guards, so they naturally understood the meaning of Qiu Chen's words, and immediately turned grim and didn't mention this matter again.

Timber heard the voice and ran out of the porter's room, and as soon as he saw that it was them, he immediately came to greet them.

Qiu Chen and the four of them arched their hands and said, "Uncle, we have some things to discuss with Lord Wu, can Lord Wu be in the yamen?" ”

Tingbo laughed and said, "Yes, here, Lord Wu has just come back for a while, so I'll take you over......"

Wu Yunqiao had been running outside for most of the day, and when he returned to the county office, he had just washed up, and was eating with a bowl of simple noodles. Seeing Qiu Chen and a few people coming in, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile, "Have you eaten?" Shall someone serve you a bowl of noodles as well? ”

Qiu Chen smiled and waved his hand: "We have already eaten." Don't delay Lord Wu from eating, let's talk while you eat. ”

Wu Yunqiao was not hypocritical, and continued to sit down to eat, Qiu Chen sat down next to him, and he didn't need to serve tea, and then said bluntly to Wu Yunqiao: "The Guangong Temple is basically stable, let me come over and ask Lord Wu, what is the situation in the village below?" ”

Wu Yunqiao swallowed a mouthful of noodles and replied, "I also wanted to discuss this matter with Mr. Qiu...... I just went to inspect one side in the morning, and the situation in the village below has also improved, and the death toll has decreased a lot, but the effect is not as obvious as in the county seat...... Yesterday there were still a hundred and three deaths in various places......"

Qiu Chen was silent for a moment, and said to Wu Yunqiao: "It's enough to have Tian Langzhong in the Guan Gong Temple, tomorrow I will go down with the adults to inspect it, let's find out where it is still not done......"

After discussing these things, Qiu Chen and the others resigned from Wu Yunqiao. Chen went back to the small courtyard where they lived, boiled water to clean up, and waited for Qiu Chen and the others to come back to wash and rest. Qiu Chen took Qin Li and Zeng Da Niu out of the city on horseback and went straight to the blockade intersection.

As soon as they got off the horse, they saw a small servant standing up from the side of the road to meet the back of the horse, "Lin Jiafu......"

Qiu Chen had already recognized it, the little guy was actually Yun Jichen's little servant Zhishu, and when he heard him, he was about to shout out her identity, so he hurriedly interrupted with a smile: "Zhishu, why are you here?" ”

"Our son-in-law sent the little one to wait here, in case you have anything to do, you can pass it over in time!" Zhishu replied with a happy face, and said, "Our son-in-law was originally waiting here in person, but there are some things that can't come over today, if Zhishu Dao you come out today, our son-in-law will definitely be waiting for you here." ”

Listening to Zhishu's quick words, Qiu Chen's heart was full of warmth and emotion, and he arched his hand and said, "There is the second son of Lao." Hehe, it also made Zhishu tired. ”

Hearing Qiu Chen even thank him, Zhishu waved his hand again and again: "Don't say that, the small ones can't afford it." If we let our sons know the truth, they will definitely not be able to spare the little ......"

Qiu Chen smiled and listened to Zhishu playing treasures, and after a long while, Qiu Chen told him what happened this time.

Because the epidemic situation in the quarantine area has not been cleared, and the items still cannot be passed inside and outside, Qiu Chen dictated, so he wrote it down by the Zhishu, and after reading it to Qiu Chen again for confirmation, he carefully folded it and put it in his arms.

After talking about these things, it is natural to ask about the epidemic situation in Qinghe County, and Qiu Chen also made a brief introduction: "The epidemic situation in the county has been basically controlled, and there have been no more deaths from yesterday to now." The situation in the village below is a little worse, but it has also improved significantly, and I believe that it will be able to be completely controlled before long. ”

Zhishu listened very carefully, the smile on his face became bigger and bigger, and when Qiu Chen finished speaking, he immediately smiled and said, "It's really good!" This epidemic can be controlled, and there is no need to be afraid and worry anymore! ”

After saying everything that should be said, Qiu Chen asked about the situation at home again, and Zhishu said: "The family is fine, don't worry, our son-in-law went to visit in person a few days ago, and the old man, the old lady, and the young lady are all fine...... In order not to worry about the family, our son-in-law did not tell the family that you had entered the epidemic area, but only said that there was something in the capital that you needed to go to......"

Qiu Chen listened carefully to Zhishu's words, as if he saw a pair of lively and sensible children, as well as the two old men who were kind and simple, as well as his sister-in-law and Junwen brothers......

After talking about a stick of incense, Qiu Chen resigned from Zhishu, followed Qin Li and Zeng Daniu, brought many ingredients and supplies sent by Zhishu, and returned to Qinghe County.

That night, Qiu Chen took the first hot bath in half a month, and comfortably changed the water twice, only then did he feel that the whole person was soaked through, and the whole person was stretched out again, and the heavy pressure on his body seemed to dissipate with the hot water and sweat.

After taking a bath, changing into clean and refreshing clothes, and walking out, seeing that Chen was cooking dinner, Qiu Chen walked over to take over the cooking work, and took Chen to take a bath.

The ingredients sent in by Zhishu this time include smoked chicken, bacon, eggs, and some vegetables that are easier to store, eggplant, winter melon, pumpkin and other things. With these things, the dinner was naturally much richer, and when Qin Li came out after washing, Qiu Chen simply asked him to call Wu Yunqiao and Tingbo to come over and eat together.

After a hearty dinner, I had a rare night's sleep, and when I woke up the next morning, everyone looked much better.

This time, Qiu Chen let Chen stay in the county office, and she only took Qin Li and Zeng Daniu to follow Wu County's order out of the county seat.

Since she came in, she has been thinking about her sister-in-law Zhou's maiden family, and when she first came in, she asked Wu Xianling to inquire, and it is said that the situation in that village is okay and the epidemic is not serious. After entering the Guan Gong Temple, Qiu Chen was busy day by day, and he didn't bother to ask again, since he was going out of the city today, Qiu Chen naturally had to go over to see the situation first, and then find a way to send a letter to his sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law of the province was worried.

As soon as he left the county seat, Qiu Chen's brows gradually frowned. Compared with the cleanliness in the county, the sanitary conditions in the villages outside the city are obviously much worse.

People in the villages are panicked, many families raise poultry and livestock without anyone to take care of them, just running around inside and outside the village, poultry and animal feces are everywhere, there is an open gutter at the door of each house or under the courtyard wall, the dirty sewage smells peculiar, flies and mosquitoes swarm in groups......

Qiu Chen said to Wu Yunqiao: "Lord Wu, this sewage must be treated, and each family digs a deep pit to bury it. If the sewage is allowed to flow in all directions, the virus will continue to spread along the sewage, and people will be spread to be sick...... Someone will die! ”

Wu Yunqiao's brows were also tightly furrowed, his eyes swept over the filthy gutters of the sewage, and he nodded solemnly: "Mr. Qiu, don't worry, from now on, I will send people to supervise the repair village by village...... Well, let's go into the farmer's house and have a look! ”

Qiu Chen nodded in response, jumped off the horse, handed the reins to Qin Li, and walked to the village on foot.
