Chapter 542: I Can't Hide It
"Huang Ama should arrange it. The fourth brother should not underestimate the seventh brother, although he has a foot disease, he is not bad. The eighth master smiled.
Speaking of the Seventh Master, everyone has to say a pity. His Eniang's position is not low, but because he was born with a foot disease, his Eniang's position is basically over. But it is precisely because of this foot disease that Huang Ama still has a lot of pity for him, and he has no requirements for him to run errands. But the more this happened, the more he didn't want others to look at him strangely. So it's extra hard to do business.
"I'm also worried about it for nothing." The fourth master laughed.
"Fourth brother, do you want to drink a little at night?" The eighth master said: "Drink a little wine and sleep more peacefully." ”
"Okay!" The fourth master did not refuse. These days have been tense, and it is also necessary to relax.
In the evening, the two had a few drinks, the fourth master went to bed early, and the eighth master continued to guard. The wind picked up in the middle of the night, and it was a little cooler. It's actually already autumn, but it's been hot because of the unusual weather, otherwise it would have been this cool wind.
The eighth master showed a happy look, and the spread of the epidemic will not be so fast after the weather is cool, and maybe things will slowly turn around.
On the second day, the sun did not come out, and the weather was gloomy and gloomy, as if it was going to rain.
When the fourth master got up, he saw that the eighth master was standing under the corridor, so he also walked over.
"Eighth brother, although this wind is cool, it still can't blow for too long. You've just stayed up late, go get some rest. ”
The fourth master slept very well last night, and after a night of make-up sleep, his spirit improved a lot.
When it came to the eighth master, his face didn't look very good. He was about to say he was okay when he sneezed twice in a row.
"Hurry up and get in, don't really catch a cold." The fourth master said.
They are afraid that they will get sick now, and even just an ordinary cold will make their bodies weaker, and they will be more likely to be infected by epidemics.
"Well, fourth brother, I'll squint for a while, you can call me later." The eighth master yawned. I don't know if it's because the weather is cool, and people are particularly tired easily. Or maybe I've been too tired lately, and the eighth master just feels very tired today. After talking to the fourth master, he went back to the house to sleep.
The fourth master nodded, and also went out to get busy.
In the Qianqing Palace, Kangxi also called the officials of Qin Tianjian to ask about the weather in recent days. I was also relieved to learn that there would indeed be rain recently, and decided to send someone outside the city to check the situation again, so as to see when the lockdown order would be lifted.
After Guo Luoluo came back from the palace, he also learned from the fourth master's mansion next door and sealed the mansion. Anyway, she couldn't find out the news, so she could only wait.
Because of remembering the situation of the eighth master, Guo Luoluo even canceled the greetings of a few people in the backyard. The whole house was quieter than ever.
Mao Tongtong still didn't know, but he felt a little strange that the eighth master hadn't returned home for so many days.
"Qingzhu, you can accompany me to the front yard today." Mao Tongtong said.
"Huh?" Qingzhu was taken aback.
"Even if you can't see your master, you can ask your master about his recent diet and daily life. Xu hasn't seen my master recently, and I'm always a little unsure. Mao Tongtong said.
Qingzhu's face became unnatural, and she hurriedly looked at Qingmiao. If you go to the front yard, the news that the eighth master is sealed outside the city can't be hidden.
"Gege, it's windy outside, I'm afraid it's going to rain. If you want to ask, let Gonggong Wu take a trip. "Qingzhu Road.
"yes, Gege. You can't see Lord Belle now, just let Gonggong Wu run away. Qing Miao also hurriedly agreed.
"I'll ask more carefully. It's easy to get a message out of the box. Mao Tongtong said: "Besides, I just wanted to go out for a walk when I saw the wind." I've been in the yard for a few days, just in time for it to be cool. ”
Seeing that they couldn't be persuaded anymore, Qingzhu and Qingmiao were anxious. This will not be there for Mama Luo, and there is no one to help.
Mao Tongtong hadn't noticed anything yet, but when she saw that the two maids didn't agree immediately, they still looked secretive, so she became suspicious.
"But something happened to Lord Belle?" Mao Tongtong frowned.
She just guessed, wondering if the eighth master was sick because he was too tired or something. Qingzhu and the others were afraid that she would be worried, so they didn't say anything. But she didn't expect it, just asked so tentatively, and Qingzhu and Qingmiao's faces changed.
"What's wrong?" Mao Tongtong was in a hurry and said, "How can you hide it from me!" Don't tell the truth yet! ”
"Gege, the slaves are really afraid that you will worry, so they will hide it!" Qingzhu and Qingmiao both knelt down.
Mao Tongtong saw that the two maids looked very flustered, and she was also panicked, could it be that the eighth master was not lightly ill?
"Say it quickly!" She snapped.
Qingzhu told him that the eighth master was sealed outside the city to deal with the epidemic.
"The slaves thought that Lord Belle might be back in a few days, so they kept it a secret to let you know that it was also a vain worry."
"Is the lockdown lifted now?" Mao Tongtong asked.
Qingzhu and Qingmiao shook their heads together, both of them hanging their heads and not speaking.
"In other words, Lord Belle has been sealed outside the city for five or six days? Didn't get any news back? Mao Tongtong's voice changed.
Plagues, in layman's terms, are plagues. Even in modern times, this kind of thing is terrible. Not to mention that it was still in ancient times when the medical conditions were not good. Moreover, the eighth master was sealed outside the city, and he had to deal with those epidemic patients every day. But if his resistance is weak and the protective measures are not done well, it is easy to be infected!
"Do you know that the emperor sent a few imperial doctors to follow?" Mao Tongtong stabilized his mind and asked again.
"I heard it's three." Qingzhu Road.
"Only three?" Mao Tongtong's body shook for a moment.
Her brain is spinning rapidly now, trying to remember that the eighth master in history was infected with an epidemic. If it was dyed, it should be recorded. But the more anxious I am, the more I can't remember.
In my impression, among so many princes of Kangxi, some people were indeed infected with the epidemic.
"Who the hell is it?" Mao Tongtong was so anxious that he patted his head.
Seeing her so anxious, Qingzhu hurriedly stood up and persuaded, "Gege, don't worry. It's good news that there hasn't been any news. ”
"Gege, I heard that Fu Jin entered the palace and didn't hear any news. It's useless for you to rush now. Maybe Lord Belle will be back tomorrow. Qing Miao also persuaded.
"Don't make any noise!" Mao Tongtong waved his hand. Her mind was in a mess right now, and she couldn't remember who it was. After coming to the Qing Dynasty for so many years, because many things were different from what she knew, she thought less and less about the historical knowledge she once remembered.
"I don't remember when I wanted to use it! What's the use of this brain! Mao Tongtong patted himself again angrily.
"Gege!" Qingzhu was startled and quickly grabbed her hand.
After a while, Mao Tongtong sat down on the chair dejectedly. What did she think of? Now it's not the Qing Dynasty in history, who knows what will happen!
