Chapter 252: The Plague is Rampant
However, after opening it, Zhuang Mingyue looked at the handwriting on the letterhead, but she frowned stiffly, with an irritable expression.
I saw that she casually threw the letter on the table, and her tone was full of speechlessness, "If you guessed it really well, if you knew that this was the kind of thing, it would be better to lose the letter as soon as possible." ”
Seeing Zhuang Mingyue's distressed look, and then thinking about the banker's payment on the envelope, although Caixia on the side had not seen the content on the letterhead, she had already roughly guessed the content.
It turned out that the content of the article on the letter paper was only one sentence: Shen Yue'e suddenly felt stubborn, and her life was short, and she hoped that Zhuang Mingyue would go home as soon as possible.
Even if it was written like this on the letter, Zhuang Mingyue knew in her heart that most of the things about Shen Yue'e being infected with a stubborn disease were fake, even if she was really sick, I am afraid it was just some small cough problems, and it would never be like what was said in the letter.
But now the identity of the other party is still her mother, and if she chooses to ignore it after taking this letter, it will most likely cause Shen Yue'e to be dissatisfied.
When the time comes, it will be rumored that she is disloyal and unfilial, but it is really not a big deal, and she can not care about it at all.
But Shen Yue, a person who does things, never thinks about it, and thinks about it one by one.
Zhuang Mingyue was not afraid to deal with Shen Yue, but she was a little tired of the stupid things that Shen Yue'e did to lose face as a dealer.
After all, in the final analysis, she is still a person from the banker's house, even if she can rely on her ability to clear herself to directly attack those rumors.
But after her, there are Zhuang Mingyu and Zhuang Xingxing, if Shen Yue'e does those stupid things and involves them in those gossips, where will anyone dare to marry their innocent girl to Zhuang Mingyu.
And when the time comes, a woman who pays more attention to her reputation, where will anyone dare to marry an eventful dealer and marry a pretending to be Mingyue?
After hesitating again and again, Zhuang Mingyue still chose to return to Beijing first and deal with Shen Yue'e's affairs.
After some rectification, the four people who had been going south set foot on the journey back to Beijing again.
After rushing for many days, everyone finally saw the stone tablet inserted on the side of the road on the official road, engraved with the boundary of the south of the Yangtze River.
Looking at the gate of Jiangnan City, the four people who had been rushing for many days finally showed a little relief on their faces.
"When you enter Jiangnan City, the capital will be close, why don't you come to the Wei family's mansion to rest for a few days, and then set off after you have sorted out?" Looking at the city gate not far away, as well as the familiar wetness, Wei Chenyang suggested to the three people around him with a smile on his face.
Although several people are masters who can endure hardships, in the final analysis, when they can choose, they will naturally choose a comfortable place rather than a difficult place.
So when Wei Chenyang made this suggestion, no one refused it.
"Brother Wei is so gracious, then we should naturally visit the house." Xu is because he returned to Jiangnan City, and in Zhuang Mingyue's heart, it means that it is not far from the capital, and his mood is inevitably a little better.
Although she went back this time because of Shen Yue, the thing that made her really happy was that she was able to go back to see the health shop and the Egret Book
The people in the courtyard.
I haven't seen each other for such a long time, and now that I'm going back, I'm really nostalgic.
In such a joke with each other, the four of them also came to the city gate.
"Stop! Where did you come from? ”
Before the four of them could identify themselves, they were directly intercepted by the soldiers guarding the city gate.
Zhuang Mingyue, who was intercepted, looked at the soldier, it was obviously the midsummer weather, but he didn't feel hot, wrapped a heavy cloth on his mouth and nose, and suddenly felt a little weird.
And Wei Chenyang, who saw that his home was in front of him, didn't notice so much, and took out the Wei family's door number directly from his arms, "Wei family, I am the son of the Wei family in the city, I just returned from a study tour in southern Xinjiang this time, these three are my friends." ”
The soldier wrapped in a face towel took Wei Chenyang's token and looked at it twice, then returned the token, but did not immediately let it go.
Wei Chenyang, who was puzzled by the soldier's behavior, couldn't help frowning, "What is this?" Could it be that the identity cannot be ...... to prove the identity"
The soldier who realized that Wei Chenyang had misunderstood immediately shook his head, and then continued: "Young Master Wei should have also seen it, my outfit is still this closed city gate. ”
Seeing that the soldier took the initiative to mention this matter, Zhuang Mingyue hurriedly followed his epilogue and asked, "But what happened in this Jiangnan City?" ”
When the soldiers heard Zhuang Mingyue's question, even through the thick cloth towel, several of them heard a heavy sigh.
"Few, this is really not to prevent you from entering the city, it's just that the entire Jiangnan City is now rampant with plagues, so it's best for you to leave as soon as you are not sick!"
Everyone who heard the word plague suddenly widened their eyes, and several people glanced at each other, and they all saw the look of disbelief in each other's eyes.
It was not a long time since they arrived in southern Xinjiang from Jiangnan, and during this time, this kind of plague actually occurred in this Jiangnan city.
And judging from the soldier's look and tone, I am afraid that this plague is still very serious.
"What happened to the people in the city?" Zhuang Mingyue, who had never thought that such a thing would happen in Jiangnan City, couldn't help frowning.
"Alas, Moti, what way does this weak body have to go but to die if he is infected with such a disease? Even if it is a person with strong bones, if he gets this disease, there are still a few who can survive! ”
The more he said this, the more obvious the pain and embarrassment in the soldier's eyes became.
"Bang bang bang!"
While a few people were talking, suddenly there was a loud banging on the closed door.
Before Zhuang Mingyue could react, she heard the shouts coming from the heavy knock on the door again, "Open the door!" Let us out! Open the door! We don't want to die! ”
I heard the noisy, but very loud shouts, which were faintly mixed with the voices of some women and children.
Zhuang Mingyue thought that behind the closed Zhu Gate, there were still some children who were only a few years old, and they had never even seen much of the face of this world, and it was very likely that they would be because of this plague
As a result, they will leave this world completely, so they can't help but purse their lips, and their expressions are a little unbearable.
There were bursts of shouts in her ears, and Zhuang Mingyue, who hesitated for a moment, finally turned around and asked Sanqing beside her quietly, "Can the plague be cured?" Even if it can't be cured, it would be good if people who weren't infected with the plague would have some medicine to resist. ”
Hearing Zhuang Mingyue's words, Sanqing also understood in her heart that she now wanted to treat these people behind the door.
Although Sanqing has always boasted that he only poisons people and does not save people.
But since he worshipped Zhuang Mingyue as his teacher, he didn't know how many people he had treated in it, and even once in Zhuang Mingyue's beauty and health center, he went to concoct some rouge for women.
Although Sanqing was reluctant at first, when he came into contact with the things made by Zhuang Mingyue, he was really interested, not for anything else, just because most of Zhuang Mingyue's things were very common medicines.
But under Zhuang Mingyue's modulation, it has become something that can make a woman's skin better.
So when Sanqing realized that Zhuang Mingyue knew more than he imagined, he was also convinced by Zhuang Mingyue.
So in the later time, even if Zhuang Mingyue asked him to go to the health center to help, or to help treat patients, Sanqing would probably not shirk it, and he could also use this help to get Zhuang Mingyue to hand him over some more things.
Sanqing, who was asked, glanced at the slamming city gate, and said with some hesitation: "I don't know yet, there were plagues in other areas before, but the plague at that time was derived from insects in the rice fields, so some were saved, and other plagues had different sources of infection." ”
"In other words, as long as you know the source of the infection, you can take action?" Although Sanqing didn't say the words that were a little frustrating later, Zhuang Mingyue already understood.
In Zhuang Mingyue's opinion, she naturally knew the variability of the plague, even the most common plague would have different symptoms in different regions, not to mention that it was still in this kind of place where there was no medical equipment and no quarantine area.
But even so, Zhuang Mingyue never thought about it, because she was afraid that she would be contaminated and gave up directly.
Even if she has never been a saint and has not been able to save human beings, but in the early days of this plague, since she had the ability to help, why didn't she help?
Thinking of this, Zhuang Mingyue spoke to the soldiers again: "Let us in, we want to see the source of this plague." ”
When the soldiers heard this, what else could they not understand, "Do you really want to go in?" Now in this city, except for the dead who have been infected with the plague, there are only the mobs. ”
Although the soldier had disdain in his heart for Zhuang Mingyue's appearance of not knowing whether he was alive or dead, for the sake of Wei Chenyang's face, he naturally persuaded him to say a few words.
"Master Wei, the people in your family have already gone north when the plague first broke out, if you go in alone, if you provoke a little bit, you will ......"
Seeing that Zhuang Mingyue couldn't be stopped, the soldiers chose to start with Wei Chenyang.
