Chapter 446: The Plague Breaks Out

Lu Qingjin has recently fallen in love with peony flower tea, and every afternoon he has to tell Binglan and them to make a pot, and then he holds the book sent by Qin Zhao, and slowly tastes tea while reading.

The book in the Jiangnan area is very interesting, Lu Qingjin didn't have contact with it when he was in the capital, and now he knows how interesting it is when he sees it, the storyline in the booklet is ups and downs, and the characters in it are even more lifelike, and she is fascinated.

Qin Zhao also knew that she had been obsessed with this recently, so he sent someone to collect a lot of scripts and send them to her.

Mainly to distract her from some of her thoughts, since the last time she saw the woman with a ruined face at the gate of the Liang Mansion, she has been in a panic in her heart, always thinking about the plague.

Qin Zhao was her pillow person, and of course he could see that she was unusual, so he found a notebook to attract her attention.

Qin Zhao had already begun to investigate the refugees and the plague, and Lu Qingjin also understood that he could not do anything but wait, so he obediently stayed in the house and read.

"Madam, Miss Liang is here, waiting outside." Binglan stood at the door and said.

Lu Qingjin nodded when he heard this, and put down the book in his hand.

Binglan understood, turned to the person behind her, "Miss Liang, please come in." ”

Liang Siyuan entered the house with a smile, since the last time she had made righteous porridge with Lu Qingjin, she often came to Lu Qingjin.

The two of them are not much apart in age, and their favorite things are similar, so they chatted a lot.

"Madam, I got some new peony flower tea, thinking about the tea I sent you last time, it is estimated that I have almost drunk it, so I will personally send some over." Liang Siyuan was holding a small ceramic jar in her hand.

"I'm sorry for you, thank you, sit down." Lu Qingjin smiled slightly, motioning for her to sit down beside him.

Liang Siyuan took the opportunity to sit down next to her, and when she saw a few books on the table, she said with a smile, "Madam, are you reading again?" I remember the last time I came, you were also reading a book. ”

Lu Qingjin looked a little messy on the table, and he was a little embarrassed to pack up those books, and said, "In my spare time, I can find some books to read at random, so as to pass the time." ”

"What kind of books does Madame usually like to read?" Liang Siyuan looked at the booklet in Lu Qingjin's hand.

Lu Qingjin touched her gaze and handed her the book, "It's a notebook, which records some folk anecdotes, I have never been exposed to it before, and now it looks like it's fun." ”

Liang Siyuan was a little surprised, "Didn't Mrs. go to the teahouse when she was in the capital before?" ”

Lu Qingjin was slightly stunned and shook his head, "I haven't been there, what does it have to do with the teahouse?" ”

"Madame doesn't know, the content in this book, almost all the storytellers in the teahouse can say, and some of the words in the book are still written by those who speak in the teahouse, what they wrote, it's all really happening." Liang Siyuan explained.

"I feel very familiar when I read this book, and it seems that many stories are drawn from the little things in our lives." Lu Qingjin thought it was amazing.

"That's right, it's all about things that are close to the lives of the people, there are husbands and wives who know each other and love each other, there are poor and hard-working scholars, high school students in one fell swoop, all kinds of things, have you ever seen it?" As soon as the box was opened, it couldn't be stopped, and Liang Siyuan couldn't stop talking happily.

"Is there anyone who talks about husband and wife? I haven't seen this yet. Lu Qingjin asked curiously.

"Ma'am, do you want to hear anything new?"

"Fresh? Isn't this book very old? Lu Qingjin was puzzled.

"Madame doesn't know, the stories in this book are all told by the storyteller, and then compiled into a book."

"Then haven't everyone else read this in the book?" Lu Qingjin asked.

"Yes, if you want to see the fresh, Madame, when the flood has passed, I will accompany you to the teahouse to have a look, not only in the teahouse, but also in the market. Only the storyteller in the restaurant speaks, and there are not only people in the bazaar, but also shadow puppet performances. The more Liang Siyuan spoke, the more excited she became.

Lu Qingjin was a little disappointed when she heard this, and when the flood was cured, it was time for them to return to Beijing, and she probably didn't have a chance to see it.

But she smiled now, "Okay." ”

"Ma'am." Jingshu suddenly came in from outside the door.

Lu Qingjin looked up at her.

Jingshu blessed her body and said, "Madam, the master is back, and he has brought a lot of fresh pastries, and I want to invite Madame to come over and taste them together." ”

Hearing this, Lu Qingjin turned his head to look out the window, it was not dark outside at the moment, and Qin Zhao came back quite early today.

Seeing this, Liang Siyuan stood up and said with a smile, "Madam, since you still have something to do, I will leave first and come back to chat with you another day." ”

"Okay, see you another day."

Lu Qingjin bowed slightly, watching her leave.

Before Lu Qingjin arrived at the study, he saw Qin Zhao standing at the door from a distance.

As soon as he saw her, he beckoned to her, "Qingjin, come." ”

She quickened her pace when she heard this, and when she walked in front of him, she asked, "Why did you come back so early today?" ”

"I found some eyebrows, and I want to come back to discuss with you." Qin Zhao smiled and hugged her shoulder.

Lu Qingjin looked at him sideways, "Didn't you bring me pastries on purpose?" ”

Qin Zhao couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Yes, I brought you pastries, let's go, the pastries are in the house." ”

The two of them talked and laughed and entered the study, and Lu Qingjin looked at the table, and sure enough, there were several plates of pastries.

She walked inside, picked up the pastry, handed it to her mouth, and took a bite.

Qin Zhao lowered his head to look at her and asked, "How does it taste?" ”

Lu Qingjin put the pastry aside, shook his head, and said, "It's too sweet, why did you suddenly bring me pastries?" ”

"The people below sent it, probably because they know that I have a greedy lady." Qin Zhao joked with a smile.

"You're a glutton!" She raised her hand and slammed it on his chest.

"By the way, you said that the investigation has eyebrows, what's going on?" She was very concerned about it.

Qin Zhao's face suddenly became solemn, "As you expected, there are indeed people in the refugee group who have been infected with the plague. ”

"Are they refugees who have fled from other places?" She asked.

"It is estimated that most of the current symptoms of the plague are from other places." Qin Zhao nodded and said.

"Seriously? How many people have contracted the plague? Lu Qingjin was very uneasy.

"It hasn't been counted yet, the number of people is estimated to be quite a lot, there are red bumps on their faces, they speak lightly, their eyes are blank, it's just ...... It's not like a living person. Rao is that he has seen many winds and waves, and he can't help but be frightened.

Lu Qingjin suddenly grabbed Qin Zhao's sleeve tightly, "Don't go out again recently, okay?" ”
