Chapter 212: No matter how expensive it is, there is no life
On the fifth day of the first lunar month, the sun was shining, the temperature rose slightly, and the snow finally began to melt, as if to indicate that the haze that shrouded the Taizhou Mansion began to dissipate.
Many homes are still closed, and so is the school captain's house.
But the Wei family also received good news, it was Wei Mingting who sent someone to send the news back.
In his letter, he told his wife and children that he was all well and that there was no sick person in the army.
And there has been no change in the past few days, which is one of the good news among the many bad news in Taizhou Prefecture.
Finally receiving the news that her husband was safe and sound, Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and a hanging heart also fell temporarily.
"God willing, your father is all right, everything is fine." After dinner, the Yun clan was very happy to tell Wei Yichen and Wei Qingwan the news.
Wei Yichen was very happy, and then asked Wei Ruo for news: "Does my mother have any news of my eldest sister?"
Yun's face was slightly gloomy, and the joy on his face faded slightly: "There is no news, I guess I can't think about it, and those who don't know think that she and Mrs. Yuan are a family."
There was annoyance and bitterness in the tone.
In the end, it was her own daughter, a piece of meat that fell from her body, how to not make her sad as a mother like this for the New Year.
Feeling Yun's anger, Wei Yichen didn't know how to comfort him.
From the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve to the fifth day of the new year, if you don't go home, you really can't say it.
No matter how busy my father was, he wrote a letter to the family, but the eldest sister didn't even bring a message to the family when she was in the Yuan Mansion.
"Mother, I plan to go to the prefect's mansion in a while and pick up my eldest sister back." Wei Yichen said.
Hearing this, Wei Qingwan hurriedly said worriedly, "Big brother, I heard that the plague outside is still very strong, and it will be dangerous for you to go out rashly now."
The Yun clan also didn't approve of Wei Yichen's move: "Your sister is right, even if this matter is done, it is better to let the people in the mansion go, you can stay at home and study to prepare for this year's township exam."
Wei Yichen said: "The control of the prefect's yamen is acceptable, I don't think it will be so serious, besides, I don't stay on the road when I go out, I should not have too much problem if I go directly to the prefect's mansion."
"If the eldest brother insists on going, then let me go in place of the eldest brother." Wei Qingwan volunteered, "It doesn't matter if I'm sick, but the eldest brother is different, the eldest brother is going to take the township exam this year, and there can't be any mistakes."
Looking at Wei Qingwan's worried eyes, Wei Yichen hesitated a little.
He didn't think it mattered, but it was really bad for his mother and sister to worry about him like this.
After thinking about it, Wei Yichen gave up the idea of picking up Wei Ruo: "Okay, I won't go for the time being, I think it's safe for the eldest sister to stay in the prefect's mansion now."
The matter will be put aside for the time being.

In the small courtyard, Wei Ruo found Wei Jinyi after being busy for a while.
"Second brother, there is something I want you to help me with, can you go back to the captain's mansion and help me get wine." Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also said.
"What do you want to drink?" Wei Jin also asked.
"Washing with spirits is a way to prevent infection, and I still have six jars of liquor in the treasury of the house, which are spirits, and the effect is particularly good." Wei Ruo explained. ….
Although the alcohol content of those wines does not reach seventy-five percent, there are forty or fifty years, and it is better to use them than to use them at all.
Xiumei knows where to store things, but Xiumei is a maid, and it will inevitably be a little troublesome for her to come out when she returns home, and she is likely to be stopped.
So Wei Ruo could only ask Wei Jin to help with this.
"Okay." Wei Jin also agreed.
Then Wei Ruo gave Wei Jinyi the key to her small warehouse: "This is the key, the wine is placed in the corner on the right hand after entering the door, and the jar is pasted with red paper. Also, try not to have contact with people when you go home."
Wei Jin also stared at the key in his hand for two seconds, and then nodded, "Got it."
Wei Jin also took the key and set off to help Wei Ruo get the wine.
When he left the house, Wei
Jin also turned over the wall, and didn't let the people in the house know, and when he returned to the house, he also turned over the wall, and still didn't alarm the guards in the house.
Seeing Wei Jin also coming back, Xiaobei greeted him very excitedly: "Young Master, you are back, you have not been here for a few days, I am really worried about revealing my stuffing."
Fortunately, their wife didn't wait to see the young master, and the old man didn't come back, so no one came to their young master for the New Year, so they were able to get through the trick.
However, Wei Jin also avoided him and kept a distance of more than six or seven zhang from him.
"I'll take my things and leave, you continue to stay in the house, cover if you can, cover if you can, and it's okay if you can't cover up." Wei Jin was not worried that he would be discovered by the people in the mansion by sneaking out of the mansion.
If you don't find out, you won't have much of a problem with him.
After speaking, Wei Jin also turned over and crossed the three walls to listen to Songyuan.
"Young Master......" Xiaobei only had time to shout "Young Master", and the person disappeared.
Xiaobei sighed helplessly: "Hey, I want to say, since you are not afraid of being discovered, why don't you take me with you, and you can also help Miss Xiumei."
Wei Jin also moved all the six jars of wine from the warehouse next door from Wei Ruo.
It is inevitably difficult to hold the wine of the six jars directly by hand, Wei Jin also found a straw rope, and after some weaving, several jars were tied together, so that he could lift the wine of the six jars at one time.
Even with the extra weight of six jars of wine on his body, Wei Jin was still able to leave quietly without being discovered by the guards in the palace.
Wei Jin also successfully transported the wine to the small courtyard where Wei Ruo and the others worked, and Wei Ruo told Dr. Cheng and others to wash their hands and spray them with the wine every day when they came back.
The method of disinfection with alcohol has been around for a long time, and doctors know it.
It's just that the turbid rice wine is generally used, and the wine sent by Wei Ruo is not only clear, but also has a strong aroma, and it looks like an expensive liquor.
"Young Master Xu, your wine is going to be sold for a lot of silver, so it's not appropriate to take it out for us to wash our hands, right?" Doctor Cheng couldn't help but say.
"The stronger the wine, the better the effect, and although the wine is valuable, our lives are more valuable." Wei Ruo replied.
No matter how much Wei Ruo loves money, he will not equate money with life.
She is very clear about which is more important.
"That's true, spirits are the best way to disinfect them. 但许公子如此慷慨着实令我等佩服。」 Dr. Cheng said with emotion.
"Don't worry about this, as long as you can save your life now, whether it's silver or wine, you will have it again in the future." Wei Ruodao.
Everyone nodded.
In the past few days, they have been amazed by Wei Ruo's words and deeds more than once.
There is nothing to say but to hide gratitude and admiration in their hearts, and he will have the opportunity to thank him again one day.
