Chapter 30: The Calm Before the Storm

"Okay! Seeing that Haoyue didn't want to say anything, Nalan Shuo didn't ask any more, just nodded her little nose.

In line with the principle of plucking the feathers of the geese and leaving the skin of the beast, Haoyue wrapped the pastries in Nalan Shuo's house before leaving, and even took away half a bucket of clean milk.

Nalan Shuo watched with a smile as Haoyue packed the pastries, telling her that if she didn't have enough, she could come and get them at any time.

Before parting, Nalan Shuo asked Hao Yue again: "You really don't want to be my sister Nalan Shuo?" ”

Of course, Hao Yue once again politely declined Nalan Shuo's kindness, after all, she already had an older brother, and if she took someone else's surname, her emperor Daddy's nose would probably be crooked.

After Haoyue left, Nalan Shuo stood in the attic and stared at her distant back for a long time.

"Master, since you are so reluctant, why do you want to put people back? Children don't understand the weight of the word Nalan, the master might as well find Haoyue's father and mother, and then give some benefits, I believe that Miss Haoyue will soon be able to become a family with you. Yu Fei said softly.

Nalan Shuo closed his eyes, pondered for a while, and then ordered: "Go and check, I want to know everything about Yue'er." ”

Yu Fei knelt on one knee: "No! ”

......

Here, Haoyue happily carried the pastries back to the cabin, but she looked left and right but did not find A-Niang and her brother.

"Oh, Yue'er, where did you go!" When the second girl saw Haoyue coming back, she ran over hurriedly and pulled her up and down.

"I, I'm going to go to the toilet with diarrhea," Haoyue said weakly, although it took a little time to go to the toilet.

"Auntie, where are my aunt and brother?" Haoyue asked.

Eryaniang: "Ouch! The old village chief suddenly fell ill, and then your aunt went outside to find a doctor, but before the doctor could finish the illness, a group of people suddenly rushed out to take the doctor away, and then your aunt had a conflict with them. Just now, the guards came, and then took your aunt and brother away on the grounds of making trouble! ”

Haoyue was instantly anxious when she heard this: "Huh? What the hell is going on? Where were they taken? ”

The second girl waved her hand and said with a bitter face: "I don't know about this." ”

"What about Uncle Seven? How is Uncle Seven's condition? Haoyue asked.

Speaking of the old village chief, the expression on Er Ya Niang's face collapsed suddenly, and she frowned and said: "The old village chief is very sick, and he coughs up blood from time to time, and he has worked hard all the way, I'm afraid it will ......."

After hearing this, Haoyue hurriedly ran towards the place where the old village chief was.

The old village chief lay in a corner at the back of the cabin, his bed covered with a layer of hay and a layer of bedding.

The thin old man curled up in the futon and coughed dryly, and he waved his hand at Haoyue as he coughed, signaling her not to come.

But Haoyue didn't stop, she came to the old village chief's bed lightly, then put half a cup of milk into the cup, took some soft pastries, and handed them to the old village chief's mouth: "Seventh uncle, I found this cake and milk outside, you can eat a little to replenish your body." ”

The old man lying on the ground was very weak, his skinny body was bruised, his face was pale like ashes, and the fatigue and rush along the way exhausted all the strength of the old man, as if he had run out of oil.

The old village chief struggled to sit up from the futon, then took the cup handed by Haoyue, and before he could take two sips, he began to cough violently again.

"Was Uncle Seventh in poor health before?" Haoyue asked the second girl beside her.

Er Ya Niang: "That's not true, the seventh grandfather was quite strong before, but since he got on the boat, he has not had much energy, and he feels like he has contracted some disease." ”

Haoyue looked at the closed cabin, hundreds of homeless people were crowded together, making the air in the room very dirty, and this dirty and messy environment was very easy to breed germs.

"Ahem, cough, cough.... I... It's okay.... Don't worry, that's how old people are," the old village chief coughed out as he spoke, and even coughed up a cloud of black blood.

Staring at the black blood coughed up on the ground, Haoyue suddenly felt that the old village chief was most likely not sick, but poisoned!

"Has Uncle Seven eaten anything lately?" Haoyue turned her head and asked the little grandson of the old village chief's family.

The little boy stared at the pastry that was placed aside and licked the corners of his mouth, and then replied, "Grandpa has eaten the same meal as us for the past two days, that is, the wowotou and pickled vegetables distributed by the guards every day. ”

Haoyue frowned, she had been eating these foods for the past two days, and it didn't seem to be a problem with the food.

Haoyue asked again, "Did the seventh uncle drink anything?" Like drinking raw water or something? ”

Little boy: "No, we all boiled the river water and drank it." ”

Since the last pond corpse incident, the people of Xujia Village have to boil the water before drinking.

Haoyue pondered, it was not a problem of water source, nor was it a problem of food, it was probably the reason of the Seventh Uncle himself.

What the problem is, you have to see the doctor to know.

"Ahem, cough, cough..."At this time, another low cough came into Haoyue's ears.

Haoyue looked at the sound and found that not far from the old village chief, there was also a skinny old man, but the old man only had a roll of broken straw mat beside him.

Haoyue took a closer look and found that his hands were covered with dried black blood, and he coughed it up with his mouth covered at first glance.

"How long has this old man been sick?" Haoyue turned her head to look at the woman next to her who seemed to be a family member.

The woman next to her had a not very friendly face, and the willow eyebrows stood upside down and opened her mouth to scold Haoyue: "How can you talk about this little doll!" You just got sick, and my father was fine, so he didn't get sick. ”

After saying this, the woman picked up the child and hid aside, as if she were hiding from something dirty.

Seeing this, Haoyue frowned and didn't speak, and then she looked around the cabin without moving, only to find several old people coughing, and some of them tried their best to cover their mouths with their hands to prevent themselves from coughing too loudly.

When I asked, I was accidentally infected with a cold and didn't get any disease.

Hazy Moon felt that the people of them were trying to hide something, because most of the people who coughed had the same accent and seemed to have come from the same place.

In this sealed environment, the most feared thing is some infectious disease, and if someone does get sick, then this dirty and messy cabin will become a breeding ground for viruses.

Hao Yue thought in her heart, God bless, don't be a plague, in this crowded and closed cabin, if the virus spreads, it will be no different from raising Gu.

The most important thing at the moment is to quickly find a doctor to treat Uncle Seven, and I don't know what is going on on with Ah Niang, and what is happening now.

"Auntie, you take care of Uncle Seventh here, I'll go out to find A-Niang" Haoyue handed the remaining pastry bag to Eryaniang, and then turned around and ran out.

"Alas! Yue'er, you're back! What are you running around with a little kid! The second girl looked at the figure of Haoyue running out, and hurriedly shouted anxiously.

However, Haoyue pretended not to hear it, and ran outside like a gust of wind.

On the deck, a group of soldiers forming a phalanx were conducting a drill with knives and guns, and Xu Jingyang was carried to the front row by the head of the training army because he was not attentive during training.

Xu Jingyang couldn't figure out why he, a smelting soldier engaged in logistics, would also participate in this kind of exercise.

The attitude of this school leader is still very bad, if someone dared to shout at him like this before, he would have been in a different place a long time ago.

It's just that now people are under the roof, and they have to pretend to be pigs and eat tigers, after so many days of fleeing, Xu Jingyang also recognized the environment he was in, so he put away his tail and pretended to be a big cat, and let the school head next to his ear reprimand him never return the mouth, but the left ear went in and the right ear went out, and the right to be the wind in the ear.

Xu Jingyang also didn't know what was happening in the cabin.

Haoyue looked at Daddy on the deck from afar, thinking that he couldn't get out now, and it was useless to look for him, so she immediately turned around and ran towards Nalan Shuo's attic.

Halfway through the run, Haoyue happened to meet a patrol and heard them talking about the poisoning of the youngest son of the Gongsun family, so she listened sideways for a while.

It turned out that the youngest son of the Gongsun family suddenly foamed at the mouth today, and the head of the Gongsun family hurriedly took people to find the doctor who accompanied the boat, but the doctor was intercepted by Shen Yinxing first.

After the Gongsun family learned about it, they immediately rushed to the cabin to take the doctor away, and then Shen Yinxing quit, we just saw half of the doctor, if you see the doctor, there will always be one who comes first and then arrives, how can there be a direct robbery without saying a word.

So Shen Yinxing choked with the people of the Gongsun family, and during the process, he also made a move, and the patrolmen who arrived later took Shen Yinxing and Xu Ajiu away on the grounds of making trouble, and locked the two in a cell at the bottom of the boat.

Gongsun family? Haoyue frowned, what kind of force is the Gongsun family? Does it have anything to do with the Nalan family? It also feels like it's either rich or expensive.

Thinking of the many attic halls and rooms she had seen on this ship before, Hao Yue understood that there were not only homeless people on this ship, but also some big families who were either rich or noble, but she didn't know what the relationship between these big families and Fang Qishan and King Yuan was.

"Hey! Where are the two people you took from the cabin now? Hazy Moon caught up with the patrol from behind.

Seeing a little girl suddenly jumping out, the patrolmen froze for a moment, and the little girl in front of them was wearing a brocade embroidered dress, and when she looked at the material, she knew that it might be the daughter of a big family.

Haoyue was already good-looking, and the brocade clothes were worn on her, which made her even more extravagant.

"Dare to ask which lady you are?" The patrol asked Haoyue respectfully.

"I'm from the Nalan family", Hao Yue replied with an unattainable look on her little face, in an arrogant tone.

As soon as they heard Nalan's words, the expressions on the faces of all the patrol soldiers were shocked, but they had never heard of any young ladies in the Nalan family who had not been out of the cabinet.

"What are you doing, hurry up and take me to find those two people, I heard that those two people have good cooking skills, and Nalan Gongzi named them to eat the dishes made by those two people."

The patrol soldiers looked at Haoyue's extraordinary dress, this luxurious bearing, and this proud tone, well, it was very right, and it was an existence that they couldn't afford to provoke.

"It turns out that you are a member of the Nalan family, disrespectful and disrespectful, and the little one will take you there." The leader of the patrol said doggedly.

"But those two men collided with the Gongsun family, and the head of the Gongsun family ordered us to punish them severely and lock them up for two days." A skinny patrolman suddenly interjected.

"You stupid! This is the order of the prince of Nalan, and the Gongsun family can still overshadow the Nalan family! With that, the extremely dog-legged leader knocked the little patrol on the head.

"Wait a minute, the little one will lead the way", the leader of the patrol had a bright smile on his face, as if it was an extremely honorable thing to serve Haoyue.

"Well, yes, it's very good, in the future, you will wait for a promotion and a salary increase, and marry Bai Fumei to the pinnacle of life." Haoyue was very satisfied with his attitude, Nalan Shuo's name was really useful.

Hao Yue said a lot, and the patrol soldiers in the lead didn't understand much, but he understood that he would definitely get benefits, and even if he didn't get benefits, it would be a great honor to be familiar in front of the people of the Nalan family.

"Miss, please go this way", the patrol led the way, leading Hazy Moon to the dungeon at the bottom of the ship.

After not walking a few steps, the leading patrol suddenly stopped: "Miss, the cell is damp, dark, dirty and smelly, and there are many rats and mosquitoes, why don't you wait outside, we will go in and bring people out for you, what do you think?" ”

Uh, seeing this person doing so hard, Haoyue thought to herself that this dogleg was quite thoughtful.

So, Haoyue decided to wait outside for A-Niang and her brother to come out, she was not worried that the two would suffer in prison, because with A-Niang's barrier skills, nothing would happen at all.

From a distance, Haoyue saw A-Niang and her brother being taken out by the patrolmen, the two of them didn't seem to be injured, at most their clothes were a little dirty.

"Yue'er!" Shen Yinxing saw his baby daughter from afar and felt very surprised.

When Xu Ajiu saw her sister, she immediately ran to Haoyue's side and stretched out her hand to hug her.

However, Haoyue avoided her brother's embrace, and said coldly with a small face: "You are the chef from northern Henan?" ”

???

Does Chef mean me? When did my cooking become so popular?

Shen Yinxing was a little confused by Haoyue's sudden words.

Haoyue pretended to be arrogant and domineering while winking frantically at Shen Yinxing.

A-Niang, cooperate with me.

was as witty as Shen Yinxing, and immediately understood what Haoyue meant, so he saluted her: "The concubine is the cook from northern Henan, may I ask the young lady what is the matter with the concubine?" ”

Haoyue nodded: "Very good, Nalan Gongzi heard that your cooking skills are unparalleled, and he is tired of eating the food on the ship these days, so he wants to try your skills as a chef in northern Henan." ”

Shen Yinxing took advantage of the situation and blessed his body: "It is the honor of a concubine to serve the prince of Nalan. ”

The confrontation between the mother and daughter is very natural, and there is no trace of performance, but Xu Ajiu on the side is very aggrieved, why didn't his sister let him hug it......
