Chapter 116: Searching for Relatives
Zhou Heng looked up at Liu Renli, his mood Zhou Heng understood, but now he had to focus on the overall situation.
"Kill them according to the law, but if it is announced to the public at this moment, because the treatment is not good, the victims have been killed and injured, and the eldest brother is impartial in law enforcement, but the victims don't see it that way. Whether it is Huichun Hall or Shouhetang, they are all personnel sent by Qingping County, so no matter how they are handled, it is Qingping County's poor disaster relief, and it is best to postpone the disposal. When the relief is over and the victims leave, it is a matter of household chores for the eldest brother to deal with it. ”
Liu Renli stared at Zhou Heng for a long time, he didn't expect Zhou Heng to say this, but if he didn't punish Liu Renli's anger, it would really be difficult to calm down.
"Needless to say, I know you're thinking about the overall situation, and I have my own decision."
Zhou Heng sighed, in fact, out of selfish considerations, he didn't want to make enemies too early, it was one thing to have competitors, but if he dealt with Shouhetang at this time, the contradiction would intensify.
Shouhetang is a century-old shop, the branch is all over the Shandong Buzheng Division, it is said that the capital also has a branch, such a big tree and deep roots of a medical hall, it is too early to make enemies in the front.
Liu Renli walked up to the officials, pointed to the two people and said:
"You two, look for the people in Yanzhou Mansion to see if there are any people who are familiar with these deceased, at least know the names of these people, if the family members are found, we will also explain, and the rest of the personnel, transport the deceased to the incineration place, and the corpses will be burned at night."
Everyone moved in response, and Liu Renli glanced at Zhou Heng.
"The quarantine area and the observation area will be handed over to you, as for the triage of Dr. Ma, I also hope that you will supervise it, no matter which direction the disaster victims come, do not miss the diagnosis, I will send people to patrol back and forth, and set up a fence for the moat, this is our negligence, I didn't expect them to be able to climb up from here."
Zhou Heng nodded, "Then I'll arrange it, eldest brother also pay attention to rest, as for this wooden house, it will be temporarily closed after cleaning and disinfection, and no personnel can be placed." ”
Liu Renli knew what Zhou Heng meant, waved his hand at Zhou Heng, and motioned for him to get busy.
After speaking, Zhou Heng did not delay much, and walked directly towards the front of the resettlement area, at this moment the crowd of onlookers had dispersed, it seemed that this incident did not attract too much attention, Zhou Heng accelerated his pace and walked towards Ma Lingshan.
......
Five days later, the resettlement area in the east of the city.
The newly built houses have stretched from the south side of the city to the northernmost point, with more than 40 rows in a row, each with six rooms, each of which can accommodate about 10 people, and if there are women and children, each house can accommodate 14 or 5 people.
On the easternmost side of each row of houses is a thatched toilet, as well as a bathing compartment, and the shower bucket designed by Zhou Heng has been very well-made, with a valve on it, and water will flow out when it is twisted open.
The water is filled with medicinal herbs, and the people here are used to it, and every night someone comes to deliver water regularly, baths, disinfects and washes clothes, and it is all completed on time.
There is a large water tank on the west side for fire prevention, after all, the houses are all wooden structures, and the people are also extremely dense, if there is a fire here, it will be very dangerous, so the water tank is set up, and the personnel in the resettlement area are organized to patrol regularly.
Around the moat, no one was found to come up, and Zhou Heng's heart was also relieved of this.
In front of each house, there is a watering can for disinfection, and a square bucket with a bamboo valve for drinking water, which is filled with boiling hot water.
The first people to come here have been staying here for seven or eight days, and many of those who have finished their observations in the observation area have been reassigned here.
Dong'er grabbed Sheng'er's hand and followed behind a volunteer, carrying a burden, Sheng'er had fully recovered, Dong'er had also finished observation, and the two were looking for their father here.
The volunteer in front of him, holding a large roster, kept searching, and all those registered as Hu Lixin's name, or with a similar sound, checked it correctly, and there was no such person at all.
Sheng Er grabbed Dong'er's dress, with nervousness and fear on her face, raised her little face, and asked timidly:
"Sister, what if we can't find Daddy?"
Dong'er touched Sheng'er's head and smiled comfortingly.
"Don't worry, let's find out if there are any neighbors in the same village, if we can know where they are, we will look for them, Sheng Er is not afraid that there is a sister."
With that, he looked up at the volunteer.
"This big brother, we are Zouping Village, Ningyang County, Yanzhou Prefecture, can you find out if there are people from the same village here, it would be better if it could be surnamed Hu."
The volunteer had no choice but to look through the registration book again, not to mention that he really found Hu Guangtian from Zouping Village, Ningyang County, Yanzhou Prefecture, which was at No. 2, Building 3, in the fifth row.
"Found one, let's go check it out."
As he spoke, he led the two children directly towards the fifth row of three buildings, and before he entered the door, he saw a woman holding the child and waving to Dong'er.
Dong'er ran quickly towards the woman, "Auntie." ”
The woman touched Dong'er's head, "Dong'er, are you here too?" ”
Dong'er smiled and showed her small teeth, pointed to Sheng Er and the man who came behind and said:
"I took Sheng'er to Qingping County, but I got separated from my father on the way, and I want to find out if my father is here, and my aunt has seen my father on the road?"
The woman looked stunned, raised her eyes to look at the volunteer who came with her, and looked at the color of the hat and mask to know that these were people from Qingping County.
She hurriedly saluted the man, and then looked at Dong'er with a look of wanting to speak.
"Dong'er, I'll have a word with this steward."
The volunteer knew at a glance that something was going on, put away the register, and followed the woman to the open space outside the house.
"This little brother, the father and mother of these two children have died on the road."
The man was shocked, and asked in a low voice:
"Dead?"
"Well, when we walked to Xiyuan Village, Jiyang County, we met a convoy on the road, many people were very hungry, and surrounded the convoy, hoping to beg for a bite to eat, Dong'er and her mother were seriously ill and couldn't walk, Dong'er and his father went up to beg, but who knew that a horse riding officer in armor in the team raised a whip towards us people, her father was knocked down, and was directly trampled by the horse to vomit blood, Dong'er and her mother crawled over to theorize, but was also stepped on by the horse, and the two were gone at that time."
The man was stunned for a moment, then frowned and asked:
"Do you know who they are? What are the markings on your body? ”
The woman shook her head, "We walked behind and didn't see it, and when we got closer, we found Dong'er and her father, and I heard the people around me say that these people are the officers and soldiers of Jinan Prefecture, and it seems that they have military affairs, and they left directly after the injuries, and they didn't stop, and there were several dead and injured people at that time, and we were in a hurry to flee, just to bury them on the side of the road." ”
The man turned around, looked at Dong'er who was dragging Sheng'er, looked at her anxious eyes, and really didn't know how to talk about this for a while.
The woman bowed to the man, and when she looked up, tears were already on her face.
"This little brother, my family is a child, otherwise we will raise the two of them, if we can find a family for them to adopt in the city, otherwise such a big child will starve to death even if the flood passes."
The man hesitated, but looked at the emaciated child in the woman's arms, and nodded.
"I know, I'll ask the county lord to explain this matter, alas, there are so many homeless people in a flood, even orphans."
When the woman heard that she was about to kneel down for the man, the man quickly turned sideways, clenched his fists and said:
"Thank you, little brother."
The man held the register and walked to Dong'er's side with the woman, Dong'er's eyes kept observing the faces of the two, and his heart became more and more unconfident.
"Auntie, my father and their ...... Are they ......"
