Chapter 22: Iniquity
Jia Yifan is trapped in the Taifu Mansion every day, although he is spoiled by his ancestors, pampered by his mother, and loved by several sisters, he is not depressed.
Another year passed, and this year Cui Jinghua participated in the ceremony of the Ministry of Rites, and Cui Jinghua was a high school meeting. On March 15, Cui Jinghua participated in the title of the gold list of the palace examination, won the title of high school, and was awarded the revision of the Hanlin Academy.
Cui Jinghua even won three yuan, and it became a good story in the capital for a while. Before Jinghua could show off, the state capital on the bank of the Yellow River was plagued.
The ministers recommended that Jia Taifu could not only control the flood but also the plague, and the Taifu knew that he could do it but could not shirk it, so he asked the saint to send someone to help, and found someone to carry it together.
When Mrs. Jia walked into the house with a straight face, Jia Yifan knew that this father had encountered something bad again, and when he encountered something bad, this father would pull a donkey face. When this father pulls the donkey's face, he will ask himself for an idea. Jia Yifan said in his heart, I don't know which of us is the father. Fortunately, Jia Yifan's father is an old Chinese medicine doctor, and he also knows a little about medical skills, and he has personally experienced "SARS", so he knows a little bit about the plague, and after Yu Gongzi rescued Jiang Wenyu, he has been hiding in Yu Gongzi's residence, and it should be time to repay his kindness. Jinghua, Jia Taifu, and Jiang Wenyu traveled lightly and went straight to Chang'an.
"The scattered officials galloped on the dry hills, and the dust and mud covered their eyes. The trees in the mountains are reduced in color, and the springs by the streams are trickling. Everywhere mulberry and hemp increase too much, the old and young cry and have no harvest. Although the lower officials are worried about the people's tears, they are difficult to shoulder and thousands of people are worried. "All you see along the way is the scene written in the poem. The flood was followed by days of drought, plague, and locusts. For thousands of miles, the grass and trees are exhausted, during which the warp is prevalent, there is the pain of zombies in every family, and there is a cry in the room, which is unbearable.
Jia Taifu and Jinghua reported to the imperial court for disaster relief on the one hand, and on the other hand, they checked the plague to seek a cure. In addition to a holy decree to investigate and deal with the dereliction of duty of Chang'an Taishou, an edict was sent to order Jia Taifu and Jinghua to raise food on the spot. You and Jia Yifan scolded thousands of grandmothers.
Jiang Wenyu, Jia Yifan and others visited several households of plague patients, and found that the patients all had a sudden onset, chills and shivers, body pain, nausea and vomiting, shortness of breath, and even indifferent expressions, confusion, manic delirium, etc.
From some plague knowledge learned during the "SARS" period, as well as the medical knowledge that he had been exposed to by his father, Jia Yifan preliminarily concluded that it was plague after consulting with Jiang Wenyu. After some discussion with Jia Taifu, Jinghua and others, a series of measures were set, first to exterminate rodents and fleas to prevent plague among animals, and then to isolate plague cases to prevent transmission, during which Jiang Wenyu prepared drugs to treat patients. After a month, the plague stopped spreading, and some mild patients gradually improved under Jiang Wenyu's drug treatment.
The plague was brought under control, and the matter of raising food for disaster relief caused a lot of sorrow for everyone. On this day, you and Jia Yifan sat in the garden and drank wine, and Yu Cong, the doorman of Mrs. Jia, hurriedly ran in from outside the garden gate, and when he ran to you, he was caught by his quick feet, and Yu Cong stumbled and fell into your arms.
Your uncle, you scolded angrily, do you want to play Brokeback Mountain with your master?
Jia Yifan's eyes smiled like a chrysanthemum and said obscenely, you are good with dead glass, are you also good.
Yu Cong looked panicked, master, master, he couldn't help but smile all over his face after shouting twice. I'm looking for Taifu, the head of the Huashan faction is making trouble in Yuhualou...
Go to meet the head of the Huashan faction, you are cheap and take Jia Yifan and walk out after you finish talking seriously.
The head of the Huashan faction has been very angry recently, not to mention the withering of the courtyard, and in the year of disaster, where is there still anyone who has the heart to learn martial arts. On this day, I drank in Yuhualou and saw a girl named Yixin who was trampled by the guests, and I wanted to report the injustice, but I was unexpectedly curled up on the ground like a dog by the turtles and thugs of Yuhualou. The city couldn't swallow this breath, and the disciples and grandchildren were gathered to level the Yuhualou, and the old bustard saw that things were not good and quickly reported to the official.
Jinghua led people to stop the fight, and brought the mother of the lockdown and Yuhualou together to reconcile. One is the head snake of the gangster, and the other is also the lord who has someone in the capital with his back to the big tree. Jinghua didn't expect that this Yuhualou had Jia Shang's dry shares. Jia Yifan was not interested in Jia Shang's shareholding in Yuhualou, but he wanted to meet Yixin, who caused disputes.
Yixin is a little girl who is only twelve or thirteen years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes.
According to his mother's description, Yixin's father was also a wealthy local businessman with a wealthy family, but he unexpectedly met bandits in the disaster year, his father was killed, his mother's whereabouts were unknown, and Yixin was resold and sold to Yuhualou by traffickers several times. Hearing this, Jia Yifan shouted a word of evil, and grabbed Yixin and walked out, I redeemed this girl, and the ransom was deducted from my second uncle's dividends at the end of the year. After speaking, he didn't turn back and walked out, but his mother didn't dare to stop him, Jinghua was also stunned, looked at Jia Yifan's back and shouted grandson.
Mrs. Jia is worried about raising silver taels, and Jinghua is too lazy to care about the battle in Yuhualou, so it's good that it's not a riot of the victims. Seeing Jia Yifan pulling a little girl into the mansion, Mrs. Jia was about to ask, Jia Yifan said, this is the maid that Brother Jinghua bought for me, Mrs. Jia didn't say anything, someone took care of Jia Yifan, and he didn't have to worry about it.
