Chapter 118, pox

This time when she entered the Wen family, the attitude of the Wen family made Ziqing a little unhappy, rich people can be high, they can ignore the feelings of others, and arrange the fate of others at will, which is also the sense of security that Ziqing lacks in her heart, so Ziqing wants to make herself rich as soon as possible.

After two years of training, he was much more skilled in dealing with foreigners, and the business was also done several times, and the profits of tea and silk were still considerable, but Ziqing's principal was too small before, and Ziqing couldn't open his mouth with the Shen family. With this silver, Ziqing felt that she could do porcelain business, after all, it was not far from Jingdezhen, and the transportation was very convenient.

After completing this important event, Ziqing took care of housework at home, and when she was free, she either embroidered or read books and practiced calligraphy, and sometimes when she was interested, she would also saw some Nanmu blocks, ready to make a pair of Nanmu mahjong, but this time Ziqing was not in a hurry, and she did it as a pastime.

On this day, Zeng Ruixiang came home and said that there were a few children in Anzhou City who had acne, and he was worried that it would spread to the countryside, and he had temporarily closed the school for a holiday, and asked Shen to take the children not to go out as much as possible, which made the family nervous, and I don't know what happened to Zifu and them?

Who knew that Zeng Ruixiang just said that within a few days, someone in the village was infected, and he still studied in the school, this time Zeng Ruixiang and Shen were anxious, and it happened that Zilu and Zishou also went home at this time, and also said that the school was temporarily on vacation for half a month, and there were several infections in the county, but fortunately, Zilu's county exam had been completed.

Shen Shi was a little frightened when he heard this, and said: "Qing'er was put in the pigsty because of pox back then, and she still feels distressed when she thinks about it, Xiao Si must not have anything to do." ”

Zeng Ruixiang comforted his wife and said not to panic, observe carefully, and clean up the guest rooms in the east wing that night. Arrange for Zixi to live in the past, and Zilu and Zishou live in the study of the West Wing, afraid that it will happen to Ziyu. Shen wanted to take care of it personally, Ziqing said, "Mother, I'll come." I've already had a pox, and those who have had a pox won't be infected anymore. You look after this house all day long. I still have to take care of my sister, but I can't make you tired anymore. Don't worry, I'll take care of Little Four. ”

Shen Shi listened and hurriedly said, "What is the line?" You're still a kid. I can't promise to do anything more, my mother can't stand it. It's better for my mother to come, after all, my mother is older and can withstand it. ”

Zeng Ruixiang listened and said: "If you want me to say, you can't either." It's enough for you to be busy all day long, the rain is still young, and you need someone to take care of it, so it's better for me to accompany him. Don't argue either. ”

"Dad, mother, the book has said that I will not come out again if I have a pox, I don't believe you go and ask Dr. Zhou, my mother has to take care of the family, and my father has to go out to find someone to work. In case it will be troublesome to bring the germs out, I don't have to go out all day long, and it is most suitable for me to take care of Xiaosi. ”

Zeng Ruixiang went to ask Dr. Zhou, and finally agreed to Ziqing to accompany Zixi. So Ziqing followed him to live in the East Wing. That night, Zixi really had a fever, Ziqing remembered that she had seen it in "Da Changjin" before, as long as the pox was thoroughly out, people would slowly get better, so don't easily suppress it with medicine, Dr. Zhou has also been here a few times, Ziqing used to cure the acne by him, and prescribed some divergent decoctions, as well as some herbs that Ziqing didn't know, Ziqing fed Zixi to drink. What Ziqing can do is to accompany Zixi, feed him some light and nutritious food every day, and prevent him from scratching.

Unexpectedly, within two days, Ziyu was also infected, and the two of them were placed in the east wing together. Ziqing's burden suddenly became a lot heavier, her spirit was highly nervous, she had never slept peacefully, she was physically and mentally exhausted, for fear that Zixi and Ziyu would have any accidents, and after a few days, she lost a lot of weight. Fortunately, nothing happened to Zilu and Zishou, and listening to Shen's tone, it seems that there have been some pox before.

Shen came to visit several times a day, worried, Zeng Ruixiang went out to inquire that there were also a few children in the town with pox, it is said that two people have died, and now people outside are panicking, and they basically can't see children.

The Shen family was even narrower when he heard this, and the Tian family came over, saying that he didn't know what happened to the children of the Chunyu family and the Xia Yu family, and asked Zeng Ruixiang to go over and take a look.

"Mother, I also have two children in my family who are infected, how can I leave them alone at this time, if you are really worried, just go with your father in an ox cart in person. I really can't get out. By the way, if you want to go, just go to Anzhou's big brother's house to have a look, I heard that there are the most children with acne in Anzhou City, and there is no news from Zifuna. Zeng Ruixiang said.

"If you don't go, forget it, after saying that there are a lot of things that are not there, Ziqing's acne was not cured casually before, how can it be so dangerous as you say?"

"Mother, that's Qing'erfu's big life, she is still staying up in the house, taking care of the two little ones, I can't leave them alone, if you don't think it's dangerous, then why are you going to your sister's house?" Zeng Ruixiang was a little chilled by Tian's partiality for the first time, last time in order to let Da Mao marry Ziqing, Zeng Ruixiang was a little sad about his mother's nonsense, but after all, it was for the Chunyu family to live better, Zeng Ruixiang didn't blame Tian too much afterwards, but this time it was a matter of human life, and the life and death of the child were uncertain, Tian actually asked him to leave his children and go to his two sisters' houses to see, Zeng Ruixiang was a little chilled.

"You, then you can stay and take care of Zixi and them, and send us a letter if you have something." Tian shook his hand and left, she didn't understand, no matter what she said in the past, her son could do it, but now why is it more and more difficult to hold it?

After Tian left, Shen asked, "If you don't go on this trip, is it really okay?" I see that my mother is a little angry. Just now you talked about Zifu, I don't know what happened to him, it's really worrying. You said that other schools know about holidays, why are they the only ones still holding on, it's really unkind. ”

"What do you know, they don't have holidays, which means that their academy is not infected, this is a good thing, the management of Egret Academy is strict, and basically students are not allowed to go out until they go in and have holidays. As for the mother's side, don't worry too much, everything has me, but a few children, it's really worrying. ”

Shen finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, in fact, of course she didn't want Zeng Ruixiang to leave in her heart, but it was not good to say it immediately, and said, "But what? You said that there was no large-scale outbreak, why did our children catch up? But it's a shame that there was no large-scale outbreak, otherwise I don't know how many people died. Fortunately, what other home remedies does Dr. Zhou have for treating this, and ten can cure seven or eight of them, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune. ”

After seven or eight days like this, the acne on Zixi and Ziyu was almost gone, and there were many small pockmarks on their faces, Zixi and Ziyu always said pitifully: "Sister, I'm so itchy." ”

Ziqing had no choice but to put something on their hands and said, "You have to endure the itch, if you scratch it, it won't look good in the future, and it will become a marijuana face." Xiaosi, you are an elder brother and a man, you not only have to hold back yourself, but also remind your sister to pay attention at any time. Ziqing touched that the two of them didn't have a fever, Zeng Ruixiang asked Dr. Zhou to see it again, and said that there was no problem, Shen listened to the Buddha and knelt in the hall with a stick of incense.

On this day, the sun was abundant and the weather was very good, Shen said that he had moved Zixi and Ziyu back to the west house of the main house, and was drying bedding in the courtyard, washing bed sheets and quilts, and Ziqing burned the things and clothes used by Zixi and Ziyu in the outer courtyard.

At this time, the doorbell rang, it turned out to be Lin Kangping coming, seeing that it was Ziqing who opened the door, looked up and down, and asked: "I heard that there is a pox rash in Anzhou, and several children are gone, are you okay?" It seems to have lost a lot of weight. ”

Ziqing replied that she had already had acne when she was five years old, and Lin Kangping heard that it would be good. Ziqing led Lin Kangping into the house, only to know that Lin Kangping came back this time and was going to live in Anzhou for a month and then go to Yuecheng, what is the name of the foreigner who deals with him David, he comes to Yuecheng twice a year, once for the Dragon Boat Festival and once for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Ziqing listened and said: "My sister-in-law has nothing to do often do some embroidery work, but she often makes purses, I have already booked it for you, and when you bring it over, I will bid for you for Jiuwen, I think you should make some money." You don't blame me for being troublesome, do you? I just think it's a win-win situation, so I'll call the shots for you. What else do you need, I'll find someone in the village to help you collect some? ”

"No need, you've done enough things in a day, I see that you seem to be very tired, I'll buy it directly from the shop, of course, if it's a relative, it's another matter." After speaking, Lin Kangping showed Ziqing the account of the last Mid-Autumn Festival.

Ziqing already has one hundred and eight taels of silver. Looking at this account, Ziqing estimated that the profit was almost 50% each time, which was very impressive. I was about to tell him that he had a private room of 1,000 taels of silver, but Shen was busy on the side, and Ziqing couldn't say it, so it happened that Zeng Ruixiang came back from the back mountain, carrying a basket of eggs, and was a little surprised to see Lin Kangping.

Zeng Ruixiang asked Shen and Ziqing to cook, and then brought Lin Kangping into the study, Shen and Ziqing were a little strange, but they didn't ask why.

In the study, Zeng Ruixiang first politely asked Lin Kangping what he has been busy with recently? Then he said: "I heard that your young master wants to marry, but he himself doesn't want to, you have always been by his side, you should know why he is." ”

"I know, because of Ziqing, but the young master also said that he didn't want to wronged Ziqing. This is his own unilateral meaning, Ziqing has no such thoughts. ”

"Of course I know this, but the shopkeeper Zhou handed me a message, I was afraid that the old lady would not be able to screw her grandson in the future, and asked to marry Ziqing to be a child, and I would never agree, so I told the shopkeeper Zhou that I would marry Ziqing in the near future. You wait for us to find the right person, please tell the young master of the Wen family, you don't have to say it specifically, just talk about it when you talk about it, do you know what I mean? ”

Lin Kangping suddenly knelt in front of Zeng Ruixiang when he heard this, and Zeng Ruixiang was startled. (To be continued)
