Although Miss Xu Liu is not her own family, she has a friendship after all, and her mentality will not be as indifferent as hearing that ordinary people are sick. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info about this plague, and at the beginning I felt terrible at most, until this time, my acquaintances and friends who were drinking and partying not long ago were also defeated by the disease, and a few people present really felt the horror of the plague.

Although born in a wealthy family, death is still close at hand, and this feeling makes everyone feel a trace of unspeakable fear. Zhang Maoxiu refused to disclose his source, but his attitude was very positive and assured that the news was true and credible.

"The sixth sister has already seen joy (seeing purple and red spots), the subordinates of the Guogong Mansion have to wear floral clothes at home, and the house is secretly hung red. This matter can't be known to outsiders, and my sister also knows, the rules set by Jiangning Mansion are that everyone who produces flowers will be sent to Tianpox Village outside the city. Miss Six is delicate and expensive, can she still live there? Besides, there are both men and women in the village, how can she count if she goes? ”

"yes. This...... How is this done, people are good and flowers? The girl coughed anxiously again, "In a few days, life and death are reversed, how can such a serious illness make the sister of the Xu family get it." How is she now? ”

"What else can I do, I must have cried, cried very badly. I heard that I felt uncomfortable all day long, with back pain, fever in my body, and weakness in my limbs. This is still at home, there are people waiting for her, if she goes to Tianhua Village, who will serve her? ”

"Family? Aren't they afraid to pass it on? ”

"Who says you're not afraid? Now that Miss Six's yard has been locked, even the lady doesn't go to that yard, let alone the other sisters and brothers. They all went around as far as they could, and they didn't even look into the courtyard, and they drank and ate separately. Fortunately, there are mothers-in-law who have produced flowers at home, and a few older ones are waiting in it. This flower is a teenager to middle age, and once it passes fifty, it won't come out when I hear about it, so I'm not afraid. At home, food and clothing are not a problem, but they just want to see people but can't see them. ”

Zhang said: "This ...... Where does this start, how did a good person get this disease? This shouldn't be ...... It doesn't make sense. ”

Zhang Sixiu said impatiently: "How can there be so much truth." Don't listen to Fan Jin talking nonsense about the way of smallpox infection, this kind of thing is God's business, and it is beyond human intervention to intervene. He himself is also a scholar, not Langzhong, and what he says is not accurate. Jiangning is a big city is better, if you go to the countryside, at this time you see the strangers alone and will be killed, saying that they are the ghost envoys under the seat of the plague god, and they will go to the village to get people, and they will be beaten to death when they see it. This disease, even Lang Zhong may not be able to explain how to get it, it's always right to be more careful, if you really get it, you will know that you are sad. In short, the farther away the better. When you see that you are in good shape, let's leave immediately, we can't stay here for long. ”

"Slow...... Don't rush to leave now, I'd like to find out more. According to medical records, smallpox is called a pox because of its bean-like shape. Its catalogue is divided into pearl beans, soybeans, dogwood beans, snake skin, and tin noodles. Among them, pearl beans and soybeans do not matter, if it is tin, it is very dangerous. I don't know what kind of smallpox the Xu family's sister is, I don't ask clearly, and I feel uneasy. ”

Zhang Sixiu said: "What kind of smallpox is useless, even if it is a pearl bean, people don't have to die, but after they are better, they will be pockmarked with a face." A girl's family, how can she see people with a pockmarked face? The sixth sister has eyesight and chose Wei Yongnian, the husband. If you really promise the right person, even the marriage is in danger. Anyway, the third brother won't ask for a pockmark. ”

"Second brother, what you say doesn't make sense! No matter if you are numb or something else, it can't be easier to get married. If it is the other way around, Wei Yongnian has smallpox, can the sister of the Xu family withdraw from her family? ”

"Smart people don't talk stupidly, men and women are different. It's not a big problem for a man to be a little pockmarked, but a woman with a pockmarked face must not be able to get married. If it is said that in the past, it was Wei Yongnian who ate the soft rice of the Xu family, but now the situation is reversed, and it is the Xu family who asks Wei Yongnian to condemn his relatives to death. It is estimated that in the past half a day, the housekeeper of the Guogong Mansion will have to find Li Zhixiao to discuss the matter of the posting. Let me tell you the truth, Xu Weizhi told me that the Guogong Mansion was the first to say that it would do this after the year, but it was actually a plan to stabilize the army and save the sixth sister from hanging herself. I am going to take advantage of the New Year to let the sixth sister see a few more people, once she has her thoughts, Wei Yongnian will naturally not mention it. But now, it's the turn of the Guogong Mansion to be anxious. ”

After some conversation, Zhang's mood became heavy again, returned to his room, took out Fan Jin's piece of paper, looked at it repeatedly in his hand, pondered the words on it, and felt more and more that the situation was not quite right. First, he asked the maid to invite Fan in, and he wrote a letter. Fan Jin was not in the house, and after more than half an hour, he saw him coming in from the outside, and there were still a lot of snow flakes on his shoulders that he didn't have time to clean.

Chunxiang took the coat in Fan Jin's hand, only to hear him shake his head and say:

"I'm afraid the weather is not good, but it has snowed heavily, and now the boat is not easy to drive. Fortunately, the port is not frozen, otherwise it would be troublesome. This kind of heavy snow is rare in Jiangning, many people do not have enough winter clothes and freeze to death, many farmers outside the city can not survive, the timid go to the city to become beggars, the bold take risks to become robbers. There have been several robberies outside the city, and if you want to leave, you have to let the yamen prepare manned escorts along the way. ”

The girl asked, "Brother Fan, who are you?" ”

"It's nothing, I went to the pharmacy and grabbed some medicine for Xianmei. I am not very good at medicine, I followed Ling Zhijun to read medical books when I was in Luoshan, and there are also military medical officers in the army, and I have learned some medical skills from them when I have nothing to do, but most of them are traumatic. When it comes to bandaging wounds, I am an expert in treating knife and gun wounds, but I am worse at treating wind and cold. I have no clinical experience, so I don't dare to prescribe a prescription for Xianmei casually. Seeing those prescriptions opened by Lang Zhong, I was anxious again, I didn't do anything else in the past two days, I bought some medical classics from the bookstore to gnaw, fortunately, there are many places to sell books in Jiangning, and the books are complete. I went outside and asked Lang Zhong, and finally asked for a prescription, which has a great effect on wind and cold, and after a while, people will boil the medicine, I will drink it myself, there is no problem, and then send it to Xianmei. ”

The girl's face flushed, "Little sister thinks that Brother Fan went to the Youlan Pavilion...... I didn't expect ...... Such a big snow...... Brother Fan bought medical books for his little sister? Besides, do you want to taste the medicine for your little sister in person? ”

"It's nothing, I'm bored in my room and want to go out. It doesn't hurt to learn more skills, Sister Xian is sick, how can I still have the heart to go to the Youlan Pavilion. ”

The girl's heart was pounding, and her heart was full of warmth. Hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "With so many refugees, how is the order in Jiangning City?" ”

"After all, it is where the capital is, and the yamen reacts quickly. Several porridge sheds have been erected, and at the same time, workers are also being recruited to provide relief through work. If these methods are mixed, the number of people who will die will definitely decrease, but if you want a person not to die, you can't do it. Brother Liu seems to have taken action on his side, I see that the Criminal Department has sent officials to patrol the streets and check pedestrians to maintain order, and also set up porridge sheds to distribute grain and rice, as well as check the sick and distribute medicines. Some ideas coincide with me, so are they the same as those seen by heroes. ”

The girl didn't speak, just smiled. Fan Jin said: "I heard that Brother Liu sent a branch of ginseng to make up for Sister Xian?" ”

"Yes, it is a Liao ginseng outside the branch, and it is not easy to see it in Jiangnan. It was bought by Liu Shibo when he was in Beijing, and it was very expensive. ”

"Brother Liu's hands are indeed not small, but it's a pity that no one came, Xian Mei is sick, and Brother Liu should also come and see."

The girl didn't answer, the thoughts in her heart were actually similar to Fan Jin's. Since returning to Nanjing, the two have not seen each other, which is also a very common thing in previous life experiences. After all, Liu Yiru is an old-fashioned Taoist, who attaches great importance to things like the defense of men and women, and teaches his children very strictly. Therefore, the interaction between the two has always been out of Liu Yiru's sight, as long as Liu Yiru is in the city, most of them can only contact by letter, and they have to find ways to avoid the father's gaze.

But after Liu Kanzhi broke up this time, there were very few letters in exchange, and there was only one letter in total, a few words, and it was just some very common polite language. Of course, it is irreproachable to be used in interpersonal communication, but it is inevitably indifferent when used in couples.

For example, the Zhang family will send some things to the Liu Mansion, and the Liu family will also send gifts of higher value in return, never taking advantage of it. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this kind of gift, but from father to son, they deliberately maintain a sense of politeness and courtesy, which makes the sensitive girl feel that the situation is not quite right. It seems that between her and Liu Kanzhi, an invisible ravine has appeared, and this ravine is still widening the distance......

After learning that Zhang was sick, Liu Kanzhi sent some medicinal supplements and invited a very famous Langzhong. But he didn't show up himself. The girl wanted to talk to him, or imagine that he could serve her to drink water like Fan Jin, or sort herbs for her and find a cure, all of these things could only be in a dream.

Looking at Fan Jin in front of him who was checking books and buying medicine for himself, and thinking about Liu Kanzhi again, the girl's heart became more and more blocked. From learning that Miss Xu Liu had smallpox to now, she feels that her mood is getting worse and worse, and she must be an unlucky day if she didn't read the almanac today! She thought.

"I suspect that the sixth sister's smallpox was killed. She had no smallpox patients in her house, and she had never been in contact with smallpox patients, so how could she get sick in a good manner? I told my second brother, but they didn't believe it, I can't swallow this breath! ”

"And you want to?"

"The little sister is sick, and her mind does not belong, if you want to find out about this matter, you have to rely on Brother Fan."

Fan Jin shook his head, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you too." ”

"What's the matter, Brother Fan doesn't believe me?"

"On the contrary, I believe in Shimei's opinion, and I also think that Miss Six's smallpox is abnormal. But based on this alone, I want to find out something, which is a fairy method, beyond the reach of human beings. The first has no manpower, the second has no resources, and the third has no time. Yu didn't grasp everything, and now he came to the door and said to the Xu family that Miss Six was killed by someone, and asked the Wei State Mansion to mobilize some resources for us to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and the other party is also Xiaoxiao, people will send some, but not too much, and they will not really do it. With such an attitude, you can't find out the truth, and doing it is equivalent to not doing it, so it's better to save some work. Another problem is that we don't have time, even if Xianmei wants to stay here, the second brother will not agree, I don't think it will take two or three days, they will think about leaving for the north. In such a short period of time, if you want to find out about this matter, the foolish brother is also powerless. ”

There was a hint of frustration on the girl's face, "Sure enough, I have also thought of all the difficulties that Brother Fan said, I thought that Brother Fan could have any strange ideas, but there was no way if I didn't want to." ”

"The so-called miracle strategy must be based on sufficient resources and information, and we don't have any intelligence, how can we use the miracle strategy. I think that Brother Liu has a bigger role in this matter than me. Uncle Liu is an official in the Criminal Department, and there is no shortage of resources and manpower in his hands, so this matter is also appropriate, and it is much more convenient to do. In addition, I will visit Xu Weizhi today and tell him about this suspicion, as for whether he believes me, I can't guarantee it, but I will try my best to convince him. There are smart people in this world, not just a few of us, there will not be too many people who have the opportunity to attack Miss, as long as the Guogong Mansion is attentive, it will definitely be able to find out people. ”

The girl looked at the snow on Fan Jin's head, "...... such weather"

"It's nothing, people run for food in this kind of weather, they can, so can I. As for you, the patient should rest and drink plenty of water, don't talk nonsense, everything is wrapped up in me. After getting some sleep and waking up, maybe everything will turn around. Smallpox can also be cured, and with Miss Six's conditions, even if smallpox is born, it won't have much impact on your life, so you shouldn't be too sad. You take the medicine prescribed by Lang Zhong first, and I will give you the medicine I grabbed after I try it myself. ”

The door opened, bringing in a gust of cold wind, and Zhang couldn't help but shudder. He is still like this in the warm jacket, and there is no need to say how much cold Fan Jin will suffer. Moreover, although Xu Weizhi and Fan Jin surrendered, they did not know each other for a long time after all, and the grievances between such wealthy families are also extremely complicated. Even if Fan Jin can speak well and undertake this kind of task, he actually has to bear huge pressure and risks. In the end, it's for yourself.

Thinking of the prescription he had prepared himself, and thinking of the extremely precious Liao ginseng, the girl's heart couldn't tell which of the two gifts was heavier. In a daze, the person fell asleep, and when she woke up again, she saw the frightened face of the maid, and then heard a piece of news that made her feel like she was burning.

"It's a big deal, miss! I heard that many high-ranking officials came to the Wei State Mansion and wanted to force Miss Six to live in the smallpox village outside the city, Mrs. Mu was annoyed and said that whoever dared to take Miss Six away would fight with him. Grandpa Xu also wanted to light the forty-nine guards to see who dared to take his daughter out of the city, and the two of them were very stiff, I was afraid that there would be a fight. ”

The snow was strong and windy outside, and the girl's heart was as cold as frost, so she only asked one sentence: "Among the people who went there to force Miss Six out of the city, are there any Brother Liu Shi, or Uncle Liu?" ”
