Chapter 102: A heavy rain on a summer night
"yes." Meng Changqing said, "I can understand your feelings, when I went to the barracks to pick people, I couldn't bear to pick someone as ambitious as you."
I've wronged you by following me. ”
"Not aggrieved." Xiao Feng rarely seemed to say anything about the scene, and he felt embarrassed when he said it, "It's an honor for a villain to be able to follow an adult, in case an adult is developed in the future, those of us around us will naturally follow." ”
Meng Changqing smiled and said: "Then wait for me to develop, I will not forget you when the time comes." ”
In the morning, everyone was busy watering the crops in the field, and by the afternoon the sky had changed.
Meng Changqing calculated that it looked like it was going to rain.
When it came to the evening, the rain was falling, and Meng Changqing was both happy and worried about this time, happy that a lot of things could be saved in the field, and worried that many people's houses did not have a roof.
Not to mention the 200 people before, they took the group as a unit, at least one group had a sheltered room, and the only one that didn't have it was the twenty-fifth group with the most rotten eyes, Meng Changqing didn't worry about them.
But Luojia Village is different, there are old and young among them, especially the families who moved in later, most of them still live in shacks.
How can you stop such rain?
Meng Changqing couldn't stay in the house, so he simply went out with an umbrella.
Bafang hurriedly called Xi Bei, and the two followed her in the direction of Luojia Village.
Sure enough, seeing many people braving the rain to build shacks, Meng Changqing asked the man, "Are there any elderly and children at home?" ”
In the rainy night, the man couldn't see Meng Changqing's appearance clearly, and he didn't hear her voice, so he didn't respond rashly.
Seeing this, Bafang said loudly: "The magistrate asked you, can there be old people or children at home?" ”
Hearing that it was the magistrate, the man dared to answer, "There is a four-year-old child." ”
"Take the children, take the important things at home, and go to the county government to hide from the rain." Meng Changqing said, "Don't cover it, it's useless to cover several layers with such heavy rain." ”
That person obviously couldn't believe that from ancient times to the present, there were a few ordinary people who dared to go to the county government to hide from the rain.
"What are you doing?" Bafang shouted to him, "Come back to God and call your family to go to the county office." ”
"Yes! Be! ”
Meng Changqing held an umbrella and walked around Luojia Village, and anyone who saw that the residence was still a shack, or that someone was outside the residence in the rain, would ask, 'Is there a rain leak at home?' Whether there are elderly people, children, and infirm people. ’
This circle turned down, and the yamen was already crowded with people from Luojia Village.
Meng Changqing asked people to go to the kitchen to cook hot ginger soup and serve it to the people who came to hide from the rain.
The children have no heart or lungs, and when they see people together, they call it fun. It was the first time to enter the yamen, and the curiosity almost overpowered the fear of the government, and if it weren't for the scolding of the parents, some bold children would have climbed onto the official chairs in the public court.
Meng Changqing and the soldiers who carried the ginger soup came over together, "Although it is now summer, but in the end it is raining, let's drink some ginger soup." ”
The people are grateful to Meng Changqing.
It's just that this thank you is mixed with the sound of coughing.
Meng Changqing's gaze quickly locked on the person who was coughing, it was none other than the elder of the Luo clan.
She personally brought a bowl of ginger soup over, "The old man must be suffering from the cold, drink some." ”
"Thank you, Lord Meng." The village chief took two quick sips after taking it, and his pale face eased a little.
"Your clothes are soaked, but there are still replacements at home, I'll send someone to get them."
"Thank you for your kindness." The village chief said, "All the bedding and clothes in the house are soaked, but I didn't expect such a heavy rain this year." Adults don't have to worry about me, there is a brazier next to me, and the clothes on my body can be dried quickly. ”
"I'll find you a dress to change into, how old are you over here, you'll get sick if you wear soaked clothes all the time." Meng Changqing went out and asked Xi Bei for clothes.
"It's bigger, but it's better than wet clothes, so change into them."
Meng Changqing cared so much about him, just because he saw that his face was wrong, and he was afraid that he was already sick.
In the morning, the rain gradually stopped, and the people returned to their homes one after another, either to rebuild their shacks or to build their houses, but more often than not, they spread out the wet things in their homes to dry.
Meng Changqing went out of the county government and wanted to see the situation in Luojia Village, but he didn't take two steps before he saw someone holding his clothes to return them.
This person is the grandson of the village chief of Luojia Village, and Meng Changqing knows him.
When this man returned his clothes and thanked him, his expression was solemn and a little guilty.
Seeing this, Meng Changqing asked him, "What's wrong?" ”
"My dad is sick. He was used to me, and he didn't wear the clothes you gave him last night, but let me change them. The village chief's grandson said as he spoke, and tears fell from his eyes.
"You lead the way, I'll go see him." Meng Changqing instructed Bafang, "Go back and bring my medicine box." ”
"Will you see a doctor?" The village chief's grandson was slightly surprised.
"Yes, if it's just typhoid fever, just prescribe some medicine and take it, you don't have to be in a hurry like this."
This man brought Meng Changqing to his house, the shack was still dripping with water, and it was temporarily impossible to live in, and the village chief's grandson laid something outside for the village chief to lie down.
The village chief was obviously a little confused, although his eyes were half-open, but when Meng Changqing and the others came to him, he didn't seem to see it.
"Grandpa, the county lord has come to see you." The grandson squatted on the other side, called the village chief twice before he reacted, and when he heard that the county lord was coming, he struggled to get up.
"The old man doesn't have to be polite." As Meng Changqing spoke, his hand had already caught his pulse.
Only then did I know that he was hot all over, and his pulse was also very critical, "Master, you go back and urge him to hurry up." ”
As soon as Xi Bei saw Meng Changqing's expression, he knew that the condition of the lying person was not good, he ran out in stride, saw Bafang halfway, took the medicine box in his hand, and quickly returned to Meng Changqing's side.
Meng Changqing took a pill and handed it to the village chief's grandson, "Feed this to your grandfather." ”
At the same time, she took out the silver needle and pricked it on the key acupuncture points.
Meng Changqing looked at the grandson of the village chief opposite, "Although I know some medical skills, I am not proficient, and I can't cure incurable and critical diseases."
To tell you the truth, your grandfather's situation is not very optimistic, he is not only cold, but also tired for days.
With my medical skills, I can't save your grandfather, but other doctors may be able to, so I'll let someone take you to Yangmen County, and you have to ask a doctor to come back. ”
The grandson is sixteen or seventeen years old, and he doesn't seem to be a very successful person, and when he heard Meng Changqing's words, he panicked at that time.
"I don't know if there are any good doctors in Yangmen County."
"In this way, I will write down your grandfather's situation on a piece of paper, and you take this piece of paper to the pharmacy in Yangmen County to find a doctor, if he has seen such a disease in the past, you can ask him to help." After Meng Changqing finished speaking, he instructed Bafang, "You go to the stables and lead two horses and use my horses." ”
