Jin Er's words still moved Gu Jiating, she nodded, said a few more words, and then returned to the Jin family's house.

"What is your second uncle looking for you?" Jin asked curiously, Gu Jia made up a reason at random, and prevaricated.

If her mother knew that she was in trouble in the town, she would definitely be worried, so not telling her and letting her stay at home with peace of mind was the best outcome.

Gu Jia's reason, the Jin family did not doubt it, after all, Gu Jia did not lie to her, and occasionally there were lies, but they were all white lies, and they had not been dismantled.

On the second day, Boss Jin and Er Jin went to the mountain to look for the old well according to Liu's words.

If you do find it, it's a great thing, as long as the water level doesn't change much, and then you don't have to worry too much about it if it really droughts.

Gu Jia was at home and didn't leave, she wanted to know the news of the well, and she also wanted to hear Boss Jin talk about the situation of the midwife.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to go back with peace of mind.

In case the midwife is not in touch with her, or the lion opens her mouth, she hesitates, whether to ask Shi Xu to talk to his master, and invite the doctor who detoxified Shi Xu before to use it.

Those are two lives, and Gu Jia doesn't want to trouble others unless it is absolutely necessary.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Boss Jin and Er Jin came back, full of excitement, and fetched some water for Liu to taste.

"Well, the taste is better than our own well water, it's quite cold, I guess it's touched, even if it is out of line, there will still be some vitality, leave it to us."

If you don't eat, you can live for a while, but if you don't have water to drink, you really can't live for a few days.

Man is inseparable from water.

Gu Jia also tasted it, and when she heard Liu say this, she felt a lot more relieved.

She had to sigh, the magic of nature, everything is like this under the mountain, but there is still water in the well on the mountain, this ...... She really couldn't explain it.

After all, she didn't go into a certain school.

After finishing the well water matter, Boss Jin brought some food, went to the midwife, and asked a few, but he was unwilling to go out to help.

One is because the Liu family is old, and the other is that in the current situation, they are all thinking about survival, who can still think about saving people?

It's good if you can survive.

People are selfish, that's right, there aren't many people who can be selfless.

Seeing that Boss Jin came back with his head slumped, Gu Jia took advantage of the time to go out, found Shi Xu, and asked him what he meant, to see if he could help.

"Hmm...... It's hard to say this, I'm afraid that Mr. has never delivered a woman, this is not something that can be done by the master's order, so let's go back and send a letter to the master, and see how the master replies? ”

After thinking about it, Shi Xu responded, Gu Jia nodded again and again, as long as there is some hope, he always has to try.

After returning home, she told Boss Jin that she should not be limited to the nearby villages, maybe she could go to the eldest aunt's house to ask, or the second aunt's house to ask, and then let the aunt inquire too.

There is no endless road, there is always a way, no more, there are elders who have given birth in the family, and there is always some experience, please come when the time comes, and together with the Liu family, give delivery to the Liu family.

Of course, it would be better if you could find a midwife somewhere.

Gu Jia said so, and the next day, Jin Lao Da was busy, Jin Lao Er went to find Gu Jia's aunt, and as for Fang's family, he went back to his parents' house to see if he could find it.

Although some food is allowed to go out, there are still people who are unwilling to help, at this time, they can't take care of themselves, where do they want to get others.

Shi Xu's news was sent out, and it would be a while and a half, and it would be impossible for any news to come back.

Although Gu Jia was worried, she returned to the town after staying at home for three days.

She wanted to ask around town to see if she could get one.

After returning to the town, she went to the shopkeeper Tong to show her face and explain the situation, and Gu Jia left the shop and went to find the midwife according to what she knew.

However, when they heard that they were going to the village, even if they were paid more, they did not want to go.

The main reason is that at this time, people are panicked and feel more at ease staying at home.

The news of the locust plague has reached the town, and the people in the town are worried that they don't know when the locust plague will reach them.

Therefore, no one wants to leave the house.

It's okay in the town, it's like that kind of village, the locusts like it the most, and they will definitely come back.

When Gu Jia heard what they said, she only felt helpless, looking forward to Shi Xu's side and having news as soon as possible.

"Shopkeeper Tong, I have thought of a way to deal with the locust plague." The method that Gu Jia thought of was to catch locusts and eat them.

Not all the conditions of the family are good, and some may be a little meat all year round, so it should be regarded as improving the conditions, of course, the premise is to dare to eat.

Gu Jia is not afraid, she has eaten it in her previous life, it tastes very good, and now that she thinks about it, it seems that she can still recall the sigh of her previous life.

"What's the method?" Although I don't know if the locust plague will make trouble here, it is better to know a way than not to know anything.

"Cover your body tightly, and then go catch locusts, I checked, that thing can be eaten, it tastes good."

"We can try to donate money, or simply provide food, and encourage everyone to catch locusts, and when they are caught, make food and give it to those who are not in good condition."

"What? Eating locusts? Shopkeeper Tong's eyes widened, it was the first time he had heard of such a big look.

"Well, if the shopkeeper believes in me, he can do what I say, and there will be many people who will catch locusts for food."

"The situation in the field is not good, let the locusts gnaw around, there is really a famine, and then there will be no bark and grass roots to eat, I think you can think about it."

Anyway, now, the locust plague has not yet come, Gu Jia gave an idea in advance, and let the shopkeeper Tong ponder it slowly.

If the locusts can be caught, the loss of the ground can be compensated for a little, although the drought may also lead to the loss of the grain.

But it's better than letting the locusts eat everything.

"Let me ...... Think about it. For a while, he really couldn't accept it, Gu Jia nodded, but he was not reluctant.

For ordinary people, it is really unacceptable.

She also said with the intention of trying it out, but she didn't have much hope in her heart.

Shi Xu, who was in the dark, listened to the conversation between the two in his ears, and couldn't help but be thoughtful.

After thinking about it for a while, he wrote Gu Jia's method into a letter and asked someone to send it to Wei Yi.

Since there is news of a locust plague, it means that there are indeed places that have suffered from locust plagues, and if there is a way to try it, it is natural to try.

Others can't accept it, it doesn't mean that Shi Xu and others can't accept it.

So, the letter was delivered to Wei Yi, and he read it twice to confirm that he was not mistaken.

After hesitating for a moment, he immediately sent people to the place where there had been a locust plague recently, and the next place, where the locusts might reach, to try it.

Of course, that's an afterthought.
