301-310

Chapter 301 Is this family going to listen to you or to me?

In the summer, precipitation continues in the vast Central Plains.

Heavy rains triggered flash floods, mudslides and landslides.

Houses were destroyed, farmland was flooded, and natural disasters broke out in various places, leaving the court struggling to deal with them.

Faced with the discounts submitted by the local government, the emperor could only delay the payment of disaster relief funds on the grounds that the treasury was empty.

Not more than a month later, an epidemic broke out somewhere.

And as the victims moved, the epidemic spread.

Unprepared officials in various places could only resort to sealing off villages and cities in an attempt to prevent the spread of the epidemic.

However, after all, it was too late to make amends.

The whole country is in panic, and there is chaos everywhere.

In contrast, the remote northern border is very stable.

Just after a heavy rain, Lin Xuezhu reminded Kong Bo to pay attention to the Fengyue River rising.

Kong Bo did not dare to neglect, and immediately sent people to dredge the river and strengthen the embankment.

Be fully prepared before disaster actually strikes.

In order to prevent water accumulation in the farmland, Kong Bo asked people to dig ditches in advance to facilitate drainage.

An isolation zone was also set up at the foot of the mountain to prevent landslides from posing a threat to residential buildings.

Under such measures, the northern border has become the area least affected by floods.

Lin Xuezhu still remembers what was written in the book that when the epidemic came, the northern border was not seriously affected because of the low population mobility.

In order to provide disaster relief, the imperial court mobilized treasury supplies, which greatly damaged its vitality.

Of course, this damage to vitality is not all due to disaster relief.

It's because disaster relief materials have gone through layers of exploitation from the state treasury to the hands of the people.

Some local officials even exaggerated the extent of the disaster in order to obtain more disaster relief money from the court.

In short, a rotten court will give rise to all kinds of chaos.

If the chaos is out of control, our strength will be exhausted.

Lin Xuezhu quietly listened to the news from Yuan Xiu's people and calmly analyzed the situation.

On this day, Kong Bo asked someone to send a message, and because Lin Xuezhu reminded him of his merits, the North Territory escaped disaster, and the six members of the Lin family could be pardoned.

It's time for the Lin family to make a decision again.

This time, everyone looked at Lin Xuezhu, waiting for her to make a decision.

Lin Xuezhu was obviously prepared.

She took out a bunch of keys from her arms, handed them to Lin Chengyao, and said, "Uncle, I have built a shop in Feiyun City, just opposite the grain shop. You can open a medical clinic. As for the purchasing channels for medicinal materials, I'll leave it to my husband's old friend. You just need to treat people with peace of mind. Are you satisfied?"

Lin Chengyao was overjoyed. How could he be dissatisfied?

After holding it in for several months, I was finally able to see my wife again.

He happily took the key and smiled with two rows of teeth, "Eldest niece, thank you for your thoughtfulness. Don't worry, I will run the medical clinic well and won't let you down."

Lin Xuezhu looked at Mr. Lu again, Said: "Aunt, the business of the grain store is now on the right track. I plan to let aunt leave the grain store to you, and she will help uncle manage the medical clinic. What do you think?"

Before Lu could reply, Lin Chengyao He said, "It's a good arrangement. My wife is proficient in pharmacology, so opening a medical clinic is more suitable for her."

Lin Xuezhu glanced at him.

Lin Chengyao realized that he had talked too much and quickly shut up.

Mrs. Lu was hesitant and said uncertainly: "Xuezhu, I have never done business and don't know anything. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well."

Lin Xuezhu said gently: "Auntie, don't be too stressed. I specially opened the medical clinic in Opposite the grain store is to allow you to take care of each other. Hu Ertong has been with Aunt for so long and is very familiar with the operation of the grain store. If there is something you can't solve, it will definitely be no problem. You can discuss it with Aunt. Just come."

After saying this, Lu's worries were relieved.

She knew very well that it was impossible to follow Lin Xuezhu and wait for death.

Everyone must continue to learn, make progress, and adapt to changes in the environment.

She's not afraid of change, she's just afraid of messing up.

But since Lin Xuezhu had made proper arrangements, she naturally didn't need to say more.

Just work hard.

After arranging the two people, Lin Xuezhu turned his attention to Lu Mo.

"Cousin, I won't leave. I want to protect you and my cousin here."

Lu Mo saw Lin Xuezhu's intentions from her eyes, and his eyes turned red at first.

"My father needs you more." Lin Xuezhu said categorically: "He is the shopkeeper of the bank. Once the world is in chaos, he is the most likely to have problems. There are not many people around me who can use it, and you are the one I trust the most. Please go protect my parents, okay?"

After hearing this, Lu Mo bit his lip.

After a while, he nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, cousin, as long as I'm here, no one can harm uncle and aunt."

Lin Xuezhu smiled, then looked at Lin Jiayuan and said, "Auntie, help uncle and aunt manage the hospital. It will be convenient for uncle to help you take care of your health. When you are not busy, you can also go to the grain store or the bank to help. As long as your body allows, you can do whatever you want."

Lin Jiayuan burst into tears.

The eldest niece has taken great care of herself along the way, and every time she makes arrangements, her health will be considered first.

Although she has no children, her eldest niece takes care of her like her own daughter.

Now she can leave, but her eldest niece still has to suffer here.

She was a sentimental person to begin with, and when her emotions surged up, she was a little uncontrollable.

Seeing Lin Jiayuan crying, Mrs. Lu also had red eyes.

The two hugged each other, both silently wiping away tears.

Lin Xuezhu was not sad at first. After all, it was a good thing to send his family away from this miserable place.

But every time I send someone away, it's as if they are parting from life or death.

It made her nose sore.

She cleared her throat, put aside those sad emotions, and continued: "There are two places left, Hu Yitong and Gu Zhenniang, you go."

"Miss Xuezhu, no!" Hu Yitong shook his head fiercely, "We all What should we do here if we leave? Only Mr. Yuan and Uncle Yan are left. If anything happens, they won't be able to handle it! Let Zhenniang go, I will stay to help you."

"I think you are going to rebel. !" Lin Xuezhu feigned anger and said: "No one will leave, no one will leave. Will this family listen to you or me?"

Hu Yitong didn't dare to say anything. After a while, he choked out six words, " Listen to Miss Xuezhu."

"It's good to know." Lin Xuezhu rolled her eyes at him, "You and Zhenniang went out and asked Zhenniang to go to the grain store to help my aunt, and you did your best to help my uncle in the hospital. My greatest help."

Hu Yitong had no choice but to agree.

At this time, Lin Chengyao said: "Eldest niece, Yitong and Zhenniang are married, why did you separate them? Why don't you let Yitong go to the grain store and transfer the second barrel to me? "

"No!" As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xuezhu rejected him.

The quarrel between the couple would affect their work. She fully considered this and deliberately separated Gu Zhenniang and Hu Yitong.

Chapter 302: Do you want to sleep with this old friend tomorrow night?

"Eldest niece, what are you going to do..."

Before Lin Chengyao could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lin Xuezhu.

"Uncle, have you ever heard that distance creates beauty?" she asked.

Lin Chengyao was confused. Where did this statement come from?

Lin Xuezhu explained to herself: "A breakup is better than a wedding. People like you who have to be tired of being with your aunt every day won't understand."

Pfft!

Lu and Lin Jiayuan, who were crying, were both amused.

Xuezhu is such a kid that even his elders dare to make fun of him.

Lin Chengyao's face turned red with shame, and his mouth opened and closed several times, but he didn't say anything.

"That's it." Lin Xuezhu said, "Those who are leaving tomorrow, hurry up and pack up. The car will pick you up in the morning."

This process is familiar to the Lin family, and this is how the last batch of six people were sent away.

But the six people in this group have a different state of mind than the six people in the previous group.

Knowing that there was someone there to take care of me, I didn't feel so panicked, but I just couldn't bear to leave the person behind.

A total of twenty members of the family were sent away, twelve of them were sent away.

In addition to Yuan Xiu, Lin Xuezhu, and Yan Da's family of three, Lin Xueyi, and the two brothers Wang Tianzhu and Wang Dizhu, the remaining people were there.

After living in the newly built house for a few days, it was about to become empty.

Wang Shen said that he would not arrange for anyone to come in, so that the remaining members of the Lin family could rest assured.

Lin Xuezhu was thinking about redistributing the rooms.

She glanced at Yuan Xiu and saw that he was looking at her meaningfully, so she knew what he had in mind.

Just when he was considering whether to do what he wanted, he saw Yuan Xiu leaning into his ear and whispering: "This old friend, do you want to sleep together tomorrow night?"

Lin Xuezhu smiled slightly and replied calmly: "What happens tomorrow night?" , Let's talk tomorrow night."

After saying that, she stood up.

Because she saw Lin Xueyi walking into the yard in despair.

Lin Xuezhu followed him out.

"Cousin." She called.

Lin Xueyi turned her head and smiled lightly.

Lin Xuezhu walked over, stood side by side with her, and said straight to the point: "Cousin, do you feel disappointed because I didn't arrange for you to go to Feiyun City?"

Lin Xueyi shook her head, "No, I know that cousin's arrangements are all for a reason. , I just..."

Halfway through her words, she lowered her head and refused to say any more.

Lin Xuezhu boldly guessed, "You just can't bear to let go of my little cousin?"

Lin Xueyi's face turned redder when her thoughts were revealed, and her body became a little stiff. She didn't know what to say.

Lin Xuezhu thought for a while and said: "Xue Yi, if Lu Mo is interested in you, my cousin is also willing to help you get married. However, my little cousin looks like he hasn't grown that string yet. "

Will he like Miss Xie?" Lin Xueyi blurted out.

After saying that, she was stunned.

Lin Xuezhu reacted for a while before realizing that she was talking about Xie Yunling.

At first, she also felt that Lu Mo was interested in Xie Yunling.

But after this period of observation, she was not sure again.

Except for the time when Xie Yunling was pushed into the mixing pit, he jumped in to save others and even said a few words to Xie Yunling.

From then on, he never paid attention to Xie Yunling.

This is not like liking someone.

However, Lin Xuezhu didn't intend to keep his words to death.

She wasn't sure. Boys and girls in ancient times had different ways of thinking from modern people.

Maybe the little cousin is just reserved and good at hiding his thoughts?

After pondering for a moment, she said: "I don't know who Lu Mo likes, but I can tell you that a person's life is not only about love and love. Lu Mo has been on the battlefield, and his mind and courage , is destined to be older than ordinary people. Therefore, the girl who is suitable for him must be visionary and sensible."

"Really?" Lin Xueyi asked with a blush, "If I were visionary and sensible, would he like me. ?"

Lin Xuezhu smiled and replied: "If you have vision and sense, you won't care whether he likes you or not. There are many things that people have to go through in this life, and you will meet all kinds of people in the future. , how do you know that he is the most suitable person for you?"

This was so outrageous that Lin Xueyi's eyes widened.

Seeing that she didn't understand, Lin Xuezhu continued to explain: "What I mean is that for Lu Mo, the love between men and women is definitely not everything in his life. If you want to keep him tied to your side, just face him. If you are alone, there will be no results between you."

"Then what should I do?" Lin Xueyi's heart dropped.

Lin Xuezhu said: "Do what you should do, and don't put all your thoughts on him. A man who loves you will be the icing on the cake for your life. But you shouldn't regard him as your salvation and wait for him to provide you with help in times of need. . You still have to rely on yourself in life, do you understand? "

" Just like you, cousin?" Lin Xueyi had a look of yearning in her eyes.

Lin Xuezhu smiled, touched Lin Xueyi's little head, and said gently: "You don't have to be like me, just find a path that suits you."

Lin Xueyi seemed to understand, but still clicked. nod.

She looked at the sky for a while, smiled, and said, "Cousin, I'm going to help my aunt and uncle pack their things."

"Go ahead." Lin Xuezhu waved her hand.

Lin Xueyi entered the room, Lin Xuezhu looked at her back and sighed softly.

At first, she really wanted Lin Xueyi to leave.

But considering that she is too young and a girl who has not yet left the government.

It's not convenient to show up in public, and I can't entrust her with something too important, so I have to keep her for a while.

In addition, she also wanted to give the little girl a chance to buffer.

If Lu Mo is interested in the little girl, this separation will definitely make him understand something.

If it was unintentional, this separation would just allow the little girl to calm down.

It is not convenient for outsiders to interfere too much in the emotional affairs of boys and girls, but they can be guided appropriately.

She didn't want her sweet little cousin to turn into a complete love-head.

In this family, Lin Chengyao is enough to have a love brain.

That was also because Jiang Qishuang was reliable.

Lin Xuezhu couldn't help laughing when she thought of this.

We are going to Feiyun City tomorrow. I wonder if Lin Chengyao can sleep tonight.

Lin Xuezhu thought for a while and then went to find Mother Ma.

At this time, Mother Ma and Cui'er were busy in the kitchen sending off the meal.

I want the six people who are leaving tomorrow to have another good meal.

Lin Xuezhu thought their ideas were quite cute.

When people arrived in Feiyun City, they were not short of money and had nothing to eat.

But those left behind will have to continue to live a hard life in the future.

The poor really sympathize with the rich.

Lin Xuezhu originally wanted to enlighten Mother Ma, but she was afraid that she would not let them go because they had something in mind.

But when she saw the busy figures of Ma Ma and Cui Er, she gave up the idea.

Perhaps in Ma Ma's mind, those people who were "forced" to leave were really pitiful!

Chapter 303: Time Epidemic

After the Lin family sent away the second group of people, a new group of exiled prisoners arrived in the north.

These people came from China. Kong Bo was afraid that they would bring epidemics, so he had people put them in the inn first.

Sure enough, someone fell ill the next day.

Then one after another, seven or eight people fell ill.

For a time, people in the inn were in panic and commotion.

When the news reached Kong Bona, his heart sank. Sure enough, what he was most worried about happened.

At this time, Lin Chengyao's medical clinic had just opened.

After Kong Bo heard about it, he quickly sent someone to invite Lin Chengyao.

Lin Chengyao was very anxious after hearing the news.

You know, Feiyun City is the most densely populated city in the entire North.

If the epidemic spreads here, the destructive power can be imagined.

What's more, most of his family is in Feiyun City.

Once the city is closed, it is equivalent to waiting for death.

Lin Chengyao took the medicine box and hurriedly prepared to go to the inn.

Jiang Qishuang stopped him.

"Husband, you should talk to your eldest niece about this matter," Jiang Qishang said.

Lin Chengyao thought about it and felt that what his wife said made sense.

So he quickly asked Hu Yitong to send a message with a bamboo whistle.

The bamboo whistle sounded all the way from Feiyun City to Anbei City.

When Yuan Xiu received the news, the Lin family was still working on the construction site.

He was a little anxious and wanted to get up and go find Lin Xuezhu.

But he saw Lin Xuezhu running towards him.

"Husband, I heard the bamboo whistle, what happened?" Lin Xuezhu asked.

Yuan Xiu quickly told her that someone in Feiyun City was infected with the epidemic.

When Lin Xuezhu heard this, the hairs all over his body stood up.

Before she entered the book, the world she lived in was also experiencing an epidemic.

The epidemic that lasted for three years took away many lives and became the trigger for the economic downturn.

It also destroys human self-confidence.

In a modern society with advanced medical care, there are still diseases that cannot be conquered.

What's more, in ancient times when conditions were limited!

Lin Xuezhu forced herself to calm down and asked, "Husband, do you think those people are from Zhongyuan?"

"Yes." Yuan Xiu replied.

Lin Xuezhu frowned, feeling that this matter was very strange.

The epidemic has been prevalent in the Central Plains for more than a month, and these people have been exiled for three or four months.

If you were infected with the epidemic, you would have gotten sick on the road.

Why was it such a coincidence that he fell ill just after entering Feiyun City?

Unless they were infected when they were near Feiyun City.

But the further north you go, the fewer areas are affected by the epidemic.

There is no reason why they traveled through the epidemic area without being infected, but instead became infected when they arrived in a safer area.

Lin Xuezhu quickly said to Yuan Xiu: "Tell my uncle that the station must be sealed tightly with no entry or exit. People who are not currently infected must cover their mouths and noses with cloth. People who are in close contact with infected people are isolated separately, and others are not allowed to do so. Walk around as you like. After closing the door and fumigating moxa, open the windows for ventilation every morning and evening."

Yuan Xiu took out his bamboo whistle and went to a place where no one was around and blew it for a while.

After finishing the blow, Lin Xuezhu said again: "My uncle is going to enter the inn. Let him go in alone. My aunt and uncle are outside to support, so be sure to protect yourself."

Yuan Xiu also spread this word.

Lin Xuezhu threw down the tools in his hands, turned around and left.

"Madam, what do you want to do?" Yuan Xiu realized something and quickly followed Lin Xuezhu.

Lin Xuezhu said, "I'm going to help uncle."

Yuan Xiu grabbed her, "You want to enter the inn?"

Lin Xuezhu nodded, "There are medicinal materials in my space."

"No." Yuan Xiu frowned.

Lin Xuezhu smiled, "Husband, have you forgotten that I have spiritual spring water?"

Of course Yuan Xiu knew that she had spiritual spring water.

But she still felt uneasy when she thought that she, a woman, would be locked up in an inn with patients infected with the epidemic.

"I'll go." Yuan Xiu said, "I'll go help my uncle. Madam just needs to be outside to support me."

After saying that, he threw away the bamboo pole he was using as a walking stick and made a gesture to move forward.

"Husband!" Lin Xuezhu quickly picked up the bamboo pole, put it back into his hand, and said in a low voice: "You have been pretending for so long, and you want to fall short for such a small thing?"

Yuan Xiu said nothing.

He would rather fall short than let his wife take risks.

Lin Xuezhu said: "I have to send someone to smooth things over for me regarding the medicinal materials. Don't worry, husband, I have more experience in dealing with epidemics than my uncle, so everything will be fine."

The two of them were discussing when they saw Wang Shen running away in a hurry . Come over.

"Mr. Yuan, Madam Lin, and Mr. Kong sent a message saying that some of the new exiled prisoners in the post station were infected with the epidemic. Although they are still in Feiyun City, it should not affect our Anbei City, but please You two, please take precautions," Wang Shen said.

Lin Xuezhu nodded, "Master Wang, I am going to Feiyun City."

"My wife and I are going together," Yuan Xiu said.

Wang Shen looked at the two of them alternately, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

But he still asked sincerely: "Do I need to send a carriage to send you two there?"

"No, we will drive the carriage there ourselves." Yuan Xiu said.

Wang Shen paused, bowed deeply to the two of them, and said, "Mr. Yuan and Madam Lin, it is a difficult journey. I hope you two will take care of yourself."

He knew that the couple were going to support Feiyun City. , a feeling of melancholy suddenly arose in my heart: "The wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong men will never return."

Lin Xuezhu didn't care to exchange greetings with him, simply responded and ran to the house where she lived.

On the way, they met Granny Ma and others. Lin Xuezhu gave an overview of the situation and told them not to eat raw food or drink raw water recently. They should frequently open windows for ventilation at home, minimize contact with other people, and smoke moxa regularly.

Mother Ma and the others wrote them down one by one.

Lin Xuezhu didn't dare to delay. After returning home, she filled the water tank with spiritual spring water.

Then he and Yuan Xiu drove the carriage to Feiyun City.

After arriving at Feiyun City, Yuan Xiu went directly to the government office to find Kong Bo.

Lin Xuezhu came to the medical center to meet Jiang Qishuang and others.

Seeing Lin Xuezhu coming, Jiang Qishuang and Lin Jiayuan felt confident.

Lin Xuezhu said: "Auntie, please don't let your little cousin go to school these days. We in the hospital should try our best not to go out unless there is nothing else."

"I know, Hu Yitong has already conveyed your message before. . We just smoked mugwort in this hospital, and Xuan'er is playing by herself in the backyard right now." Jiang Qishang said.

"My uncle went to the inn?" Lin Xuezhu asked.

Jiang Qishuang nodded, "I have already seen the patient. I just sent out the news and made a list of medicinal materials. I am preparing medicine for him, but several medicinal materials are not available. I originally thought of going to Mr. Kong, but you can't It's coming."

"Let me take a look." Lin Xuezhu took the list and took a look.

All the medicinal materials found above were checked out with a pen, leaving five or six types of medicinal materials that were not found.

Lin Xuezhu was about to take some time off to look for medicinal materials in the space when she heard a voice coming from outside the door.

"Zhou Shenrong, the shopkeeper of Zhouji Drug Store, would like to see the shopkeeper of Rongsheng Medical Center."

Chapter 304 Vaguely realized that she was up to something.

Lin Xuezhu and Jiang Qishuang looked at each other, feeling very irritable.

Zhouji Pharmacy...

Is the Zhou family coming to make money from the national crisis again?

"Aunt, has Zhou Shenrong seen you then?" Lin Xuezhu asked.

Jiang Qishuang nodded, "I must have met before. When we were at the grain store before, we couldn't help but meet."

Lin Xuezhu snorted coldly.

This week, Shen Rong failed to discuss business with her last time. I heard that all the stored grain was shipped away.

When floods hit the Central Plains, he had no place to sell his old rice.

However, the Zhou family does have a keen sense of smell, and in time for the epidemic, they have to sell medicinal materials in the north again.

Lin Xuezhu thought for a while and said: "Auntie and aunt, you go to the back hall first, I will handle it here."

Jiang Qishuang and Lin Jiayuan walked to the back hall in response. Lin Xuezhu asked Hu Yitong to welcome people in first, and then went to the back hall himself.

Jiang Qishuang found Lin Xuezhu a curtain hat. A piece of tulle hung from the wide brim, which just covered Lin Xuezhu's face.

Lin Xuezhu cleared her throat, changed her voice to a slightly softer one, and then walked back to the front hall.

Zhou Shenrong was sitting in the front hall drinking tea.

Seeing Lin Xuezhu coming, he stood up politely and said politely, "I don't know what to call the shopkeeper?"

"My surname is Shi and my name is Zhenxiang." Lin Xuezhu said slowly.

This time she was showing off in women's clothing, so she temporarily made up a female name.

This name suddenly confused Zhou Shenrong again.

Shit smells so good? Isn't she a shitty sister?

The names of these two people sounded like they were named by the same father.

Zhou Shenrong's head was buzzing.

He had just repaired the psychological shadow caused by the shit jar, and immediately he felt that shit smelled really good.

Is he destined to deal with shit?

What bad luck!

Zhou Shenrong adjusted his mood and asked tentatively: "May I ask Miss Shi, what is your relationship with Boss Shi Yitan?"

Lin Xuezhu said slowly: "Who is Shi Yitan?"

Seeing that he didn't recognize her, Zhou Shenrong felt a little lost for some reason. .

After all, it's a pity that two names that match each other don't come from the same family.

Zhou Shenrong thought about it for a long time before he realized that he was here to talk about business today.

He quickly got rid of the messy thoughts in his mind and said: "Miss Shi opened a medical clinic at such a young age, I really admire you."

According to Lin Xuezhu's temperament, he couldn't help but want to quarrel with this nagging Zhou Shenrong.

However, in order to distinguish herself from Shi Yitan's character, she had to pretend to be weak and talkative.

"Shopkeeper Zhou is overly praised, but the family is short of manpower, so let me take care of things here first. In a few years, when my younger brother grows up, these businesses will be handed over to him." Lin Xuezhu said sagely.

When Zhou Shenrong heard this, he knew that she was just a puppet pushed out by her family.

A big fool who works hard to make wedding clothes for others.

There was some contempt in my heart.

Little did he know that Lin Xuezhu randomly fabricated this life experience for herself just to hurt his heart.

However, she overestimated Zhou Shenrong's wisdom.

When the sixth man saw someone with a similar life experience to himself, not only did he not feel hurt, but he felt that the other person was easy to bully.

Because puppets have no real power, and without real power, they have no confidence.

Zhou Shenrong raised his chin and said, "I heard that there was an epidemic in Feiyun City. I thought that medicinal materials must be in short supply, so I decided to come and ask Shopkeeper Shi if there was a shortage of medicinal materials."

"Yes." Lin Xuezhu replied hurriedly, deliberately worried, The main theme is a city without a heart.

Zhou Shenrong couldn't suppress the smile on his lips, and said again: "I happen to have a channel, and within five days, the medicinal materials will arrive in the north."

"Five days..." Lin Xuezhu looked very disappointed and said weakly: " But the doctor in my family said that the epidemic spread very quickly. Those exiled prisoners who came into the city came into contact with many officers, soldiers and civilians. At present, only five or six people were sick. Within three days, those who had been exposed to them would be infected. They will get sick one after another. By then, one person will spread to ten, and ten will spread to a hundred. If it takes five days, it will be too late..."

Zhou Shenrong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Then I'll urge them to hurry up. How about three days?"

Lin Xuezhu was still hesitant. "My doctor said that the amount of medicinal materials needed for this epidemic is huge, and I'm afraid they won't be able to get it together in a short while. My family is elsewhere. He is also in the medicinal material business, but medicinal materials are in short supply everywhere, and the ones that can be transported to the north are just a drop in the bucket. "

"It doesn't matter, my family has a way to solve the girl's urgent need," Zhou Shenrong promised, patting his chest.

"Really?" Lin Xuezhu said with surprise in her tone, "If that's the case, that would be great. Otherwise, if the tasks assigned by the prefect cannot be completed, my Rongsheng Medical Clinic has just been opened for a few days. I'm afraid it will have to open." No more."

Zhou Shenrong felt happy.

This shit smells so good. It's really inexperienced and very good at handling it.

Normally, those who do business will negotiate the price first, then sign the contract and pay the deposit.

But this Shi Zhenxiang is so anxious that he ignores such an important thing.

If she didn't discuss the price, don't blame him for asking for it three days later.

Anyway, the patient couldn't wait. After three days, she thought it was too expensive, so she could only accept all the medicinal materials from him.

Otherwise, if the patients cannot be treated well, she will never even think about opening this medical clinic.

Zhou Shenrong said: "Let's do this. Shopkeeper Shi will give me a list of the required medicinal materials and quantities, and I will go back and arrange for delivery."

Lin Xuezhu was grateful, "As long as shopkeeper Zhou can help our Rongsheng Medical Center solve this problem, It's urgent. I must thank Shopkeeper Zhou."

After that, she said to Hu Yitong: "Go and inform my father that I have found the medicine, so he doesn't need to worry."

"Yes!" Hu Yitong walked to the back hall in cooperation. , pretending to be sending a message.

Lin Xuezhu saluted Zhou Shenrong and said, "Shopkeeper Zhou, wait a moment, I'm going to write a list."

Zhou Shenrong smiled and nodded, thinking: There can be more of these silly girls who sell people and give them money. You don't have to worry about your own performance.

Lin Xuezhu walked quickly to the back hall and almost couldn't help laughing.

"Eldest niece, why are you so happy?" Jiang Qishuang asked with a smile.

"I finally unlocked King Tianliang's broken script." Lin Xuezhu replied rubbing her hands.

"What is Tianliang Wangpo?" Jiang Qishuang looked confused.

Lin Xuezhu smiled and said, "Auntie, just watch it."

As she said that, she took out the list of medicinal materials given by Lin Chengyao and copied it.

Moreover, the demand for each medicinal material was increased a hundred times.

After writing it, she added more than twenty kinds of medicinal materials to it based on the knowledge she learned from Lin Chengyao.

They are probably those that clear away heat and detoxify.

Although the medicinal materials are not expensive, they cannot be used in large quantities.

After finishing writing, Lin Xuezhu took a satisfied look and asked Jiang Qishuang, "Auntie, see what else you can add to this."

Jiang Qishuang was vaguely aware that she was up to something, and said a few more words in cooperation.

Chapter 305 Miss Xuezhu's improvisation

Lin Xuezhu chuckled and completed the list of medicinal ingredients with Jiang Qishuang.

Then she put on her curtain hat and walked out of the back hall.

When the list was handed to Zhou Shenrong, the old man was shocked.

"So many?" He stared at Lin Xuezhu in disbelief.

Lin Xuezhu nodded calmly and said weakly: "This is the list sent by my doctor. He said that with these medicinal materials, Feiyun City will be safe. He also said that here are not only medicinal materials for treating diseases, but also for regulating the body after recovery. The medicinal materials."

Seeing Zhou Shenrong's hesitation, Lin Xuezhu asked Hu Yitong, "Did my father say that a batch of medicinal materials will arrive in the north tomorrow?"

Hu Yitong responded: "Yes, the master asked me to go to the city gate to pick it up tomorrow. Lin Xuezhu said with some relief: "

Very good. With this batch of medicinal materials, we can save some people first. When the epidemic spreads, Shopkeeper Zhou's medicinal materials will arrive. Feiyun City will be saved, and the entire northern border will be saved." Yes."

Her cheerful look finally cleared away Zhou Shenrong's doubts.

The doctors at Rongsheng Medical Center were a little too prepared for a rainy day, but it didn't matter. They made the list of medicinal materials themselves anyway, and even if they lost money, they wouldn't be able to compensate the Zhou family.

"That's the case, I'll go back and prepare as soon as possible. Shopkeeper Shi, I'll take my leave." Zhou Shenrong hurriedly went back to prepare the medicinal materials and hurriedly left Rongsheng Medical Center.

Lin Xuezhu waved his hand behind his back and said softly, "Let's go slowly without seeing him off."

After thinking for a while, he added, "I'll leave everything to shopkeeper Zhou."

Until Zhou Shenrong's figure disappeared at the other end of the street, Lin Xuezhu Then he pulled off the curtain and hat and burst into laughter.

Just at this time, Yuan Xiu walked in from outside.

Seeing Lin Xuezhu smiling, he glanced at Hu Yitong doubtfully.

Hu Yitong didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Lin Xuezhu's gourd. His cooperation just now was just out of the tacit understanding formed before.

Lin Xuezhu said: "Husband, Zhou Shenrong is really an old man. Seeing that there is an epidemic in Feiyun City, he wants to use medicinal materials to make a fortune. I just set a trap for him. You can cooperate with him later to take advantage of this situation. Really."

Upon hearing this, Hu Yitong's admiration for Lin Xuezhu suddenly flowed like a torrent of water.

You know, Zhou Shenrong came to his door today. His Miss Xuezhu acted on the spot and was not prepared in advance.

To be able to trick someone quickly in such a short period of time, Miss Xuezhu must have such a flexible mind!

"How do you want us to cooperate, madam?" On the other hand, Yuan Xiu was quite calm about this matter.

Lin Xuezhu waved to the two of them, asking them to come closer.

Then he said: "Tomorrow a batch of medicinal materials will arrive in Feiyun City. Brother Hu family, you are responsible for taking care of it. They must send it to the inn with great fanfare. If you meet people from Zhou Ji, just follow what I said today. The purpose is to let them get it in time. Bring the medicinal ingredients."

"Understood." Once Hu Yitong understood Lin Xuezhu's intention, he knew how to cooperate.

Lin Xuezhu said to Yuan Xiu again: "Husband, I will go to the inn later. You go to Master Kong and ask him to seal the city. Until the epidemic is over, there is no way in or out. After three days, ask Master Kong to seal the medical center. It is said that all the people inside are infected with the epidemic. As for Zhou Ji's medicinal materials, we will not accept them. We will delay them as long as we can. After the epidemic is over, he will no longer be able to sell them at high prices. "

"Wonderful!" Hu Yitong said. Only then did she finally understand Lin Xuezhu's intention and couldn't help but pat her thigh.

Lin Xuezhu said: "While you have time these days, stock up on food and drink, and if you can, don't go out. The grain stores and banks are also taking care of them. I'm not doing this just to act for Zhou Shenrong. "Look, I'm afraid that the epidemic will spread and infect you."

"I understand, Miss Xuezhu, we don't have to worry about food. We can buy it at the grain store. I will prepare the rest right away." After saying that, he suddenly reacted, "Miss Xuezhu, you said you want to go to the inn?"

Lin Xuezhu nodded, "I'm going to help my uncle."

"Miss Xuezhu, the inn is in danger now." Hu Yitong said worriedly.

Lin Xuezhu smiled lightly and said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I'll be fine. As long as you take care of this place, I'll let you know if anything happens."

Although Hu Yitong was worried, he knew that he couldn't influence Lin Xuezhu's thoughts, so he hurriedly went out to make purchases. .

Lin Xuezhu pulled Yuan Xiu and whispered: "Husband, you will accompany me to the house we bought before, and I will move the medicinal materials out of the space. Tomorrow, ask your people to pretend to transport them, and hand them over to Hu Yitong. Okay."

"Got it," Yuan Xiu said.

After the two discussed it, Lin Xuezhu walked to the back hall.

"Eldest niece, are you done talking about it?" Jiang Qishuang saw her and asked.

Lin Xuezhu nodded, "Auntie can just ask Hu Yitong later, where is Xiao Xuan'er?"

Jiang Qishuang said, "By chance, he fell asleep now, and sister Jia Yuan is watching him. This child talks about his cousin every day, My cousin is here now and he is asleep."

Lin Xuezhu smiled, "It's okay, let him sleep. I asked Hu Yitong to go shopping. You should stay in the hospital these days and try not to come into contact with other people."

With that said, she entered the kitchen and quickly replaced the water in the water tank with spiritual spring water, filling it up to the top.

After coming out, she said to Jiang Qishuang: "I'm afraid that the epidemic will contaminate the water source. The water in the tank is full. Just drink this water these days and try not to bring in new water."

"Yeah." Jiang Qishuang knew these things. Yes, but if Lin Xuezhu hadn't reminded her, she might not have been able to remember.

After Lin Xuezhu finished explaining everything that needed to be explained, she took Yuan Xiu to the Longsheng Grain Store again.

Mrs. Lu knew that Lin Chengyao had entered the inn early, and saw Lin Xuezhu and Yuan Xiu coming together, so she couldn't help but feel nervous.

"Xiu'er, Xuezhu, what happened?" she asked.

Lin Xuezhu answered quite calmly, saying only: "I heard about the epidemic, and I was worried that you would not be safe, so I came over to take a look. My aunt has closed the grain shop these days, leaving only a small window. When I meet people who come to buy grain, I have been there since I was a child. Pass the food out through the window and try not to come into contact with outsiders."

After hearing this, Mrs. Lu calmed down a little and nodded: "Don't worry, I'm close to the hospital. If anything happens, I'll go find my in-laws. Brother and sister."

Lin Xuezhu said to Hu Ertong: "You can go to the medical center to get some medicinal materials. Prepare food and smoke first."

"I'll go right away." Hu Ertong agreed and went out. .

Lin Xuezhu asked Yuan Xiu to talk to Mr. Lu, and went to the kitchen as usual to change the water in the tank.

After coming out, he told Jiang Qishuang again what he had told her.

After the explanation, the two went to Xingsheng Bank again.

Lin Chengzhang and his wife were very excited when they met their daughter. Lu Mo and Hu Santong were also very happy.

Lin Xuezhu did the same thing and explained everything that needed to be explained.

However, she didn't say that she was going to the inn, so as not to worry a few more people.

Chapter 306 He couldn't control it, he really couldn't control it.

After leaving the bank, Lin Xuezhu and Yuan Xiu drove a carriage to a house in the southeast corner of Feiyun City.

The house is surrounded by city walls, and the location is very remote and clean.

Lin Xuezhu took this into consideration when he chose the location.

However, she hasn't told her family yet.

She wanted to let her family live together after all the troubles in the north were dealt with.

Now, due to the big cancer in the Zhou family, the identities of the whole family have to be kept secret, and they cannot have close contact with each other.

"Husband, where do you plan to stay these days?" Lin Xuezhu asked as she walked into the house.

"I live here. If anything happens to you, I can help you at any time." Yuan Xiu said.

Lin Xuezhu thought he would go to Lu's place, so he didn't say much after hearing this.

Having experienced the epidemic, she knows very well that it is safer for people to spread out.

They are all crowded together, and if someone gets infected, it will infect the whole family.

Moreover, Yuan Xiu will be able to move more easily if he is not with Lu.

Otherwise, Lu would be worried if there was any trouble on his side.

Lin Xuezhu said: "Then I will put a tank of spiritual spring water for you. You can drink it every day. It should have some effect on preventing epidemics."

She said and walked to the kitchen.

As soon as he took a step, his arm was grabbed by Yuan Xiu.

Before she could react, she was already in Yuan Xiu's arms.

Yuan Xiu buried his head in her neck and didn't speak for a long time.

Lin Xuezhu felt blessed and reached out to pat his back.

This man has never shown weakness in front of her.

Today she just wanted to enter the inn, but he acted like she was parting with her.

Do you want to be so exaggerated?

"Madam, be careful in everything you do." Yuan Xiu's voice was muffled and full of reluctance.

Lin Xuezhu's heart was soft and she couldn't help but rub his head.

"It's okay, husband, I'll be out in ten days and a half." She said with the utmost gentleness.

Yuan Xiu took a deep breath and finally let her go.

In his eyes was a nostalgia that was so thick that it couldn't be melted away.

Lin Xuezhu smiled brightly, "Husband, when I succeed in fighting the epidemic, I will earn a few places for our family, and then send Mother Ma and the others away. Only the two of us will be left to die on that construction site for the rest of our lives."

Her words shocked Yuan Xiu . Amused.

The gloomy mood just now suddenly became brighter.

Lin Xuezhu took his hand and filled the kitchen vat with water.

Then he found a spacious room and moved many medicinal materials out of the space.

Some of these medicinal materials were obtained from the treasury, and some were collected by her along the way and planted in the space.

The quality from the treasury is naturally high, but the quality from the space is better.

"Husband, I'm sorry to trouble you." Lin Xuezhu walked out of the house, gave Yuan Xiu a big hug, and said, "I'm leaving, and you will take care of the family." "

You don't have to worry, take care of yourself." Yuan Xiu. Xiu said.

Lin Xuezhu smiled, turned around and got into the carriage.

Yuan Xiu sent her to the door of the inn, and they parted ways.

The officers and soldiers guarding the gate of the post station were specially recruited by Kong Bo. When they saw Lin Xuezhu, they greeted her politely, "Ms. Lin."

Lin Xuezhu smiled and nodded to them, covered her mouth and nose with the towel she carried with her, and walked in.

"Is this Mrs. Lin?" The waiter from the inn came up to her.

Seeing that his face towel was tied loosely behind his head, with his nostrils exposed, Lin Xuezhu said seriously: "Tie the face towel up."

The man was stunned for a moment, then he realized what he was doing and took a few steps back with a smile.

He said, "It's the little one's fault that makes Mrs. Lin so upset. Little one, tie it up tight."

After saying that, he took off the face towel and tied it up properly.

Lin Xuezhu was speechless and said coldly: "Do you know why you are asked to cover your mouth and nose?

The man glanced at Lin Xuezhu timidly and did not dare to say a word.

Lin Xuezhu said: "It is to prevent you from getting infected. So your face towel is not for me to see, it is for protecting yourself, you know?

"I know, I know. " "The guy subconsciously covered his mouth and nose with his hands.

Lin Xuezhu said: "Take me to see Dr. Lin. "

"yes. "The boy was frightened and hurriedly trotted forward to lead the way.

Lin Chengyao was writing prescriptions in a small room at this time. He frowned and was in a very tense state.

"Uncle, how is the situation? Lin Xuezhu asked.

Lin Chengyao raised his head and saw her. He was stunned for a moment and then suddenly jumped up.

"Eldest niece, why are you here?" Do you know how dangerous it is here? If you get sick, how will I explain it to your father? Oh, really, you kid, why are you so imprudent!

Lin Xuezhu waited for him to finish and said, "Uncle, let me help you take care of your affairs. " You concentrate on studying the prescription and won't care about anything else, so I'm here. "

Lin Chengyao was worried about his eldest niece, but the inn was now closed, and he couldn't send people out. He

could only be alone with his face flushed with anxiety.

Lin Xuezhu asked with a smile: "Uncle, how many doctors are there here? Who? "

Lin Chengyao said: "In addition to me, there are two doctors from the prefecture.

"What about patients who are clearly symptomatic? " Lin Xuezhu asked again.

"Nine have been discovered now." Lin Chengyao answered.

"Are the symptoms the same or are they different?" Lin Xuezhu continued to ask.

"The general symptoms are the same, fever, cough, and three other symptoms: diarrhea." " Lin Chengyao continued to answer.

Lin Xuezhu had a rough idea.

The nine people got sick at about the same time and had similar symptoms. It seemed that they were infected at the same time.

"Uncle, have you asked them, five days before arriving in the north, they all Where have you been, who have you been in contact with, and what have you eaten? Lin Xuezhu asked.

Lin Chengyao shook his head, "I haven't had time to ask yet."

Lin Xuezhu was silent for a moment and then asked: "Where are the escort officials? " Have they left, or are they still at the inn? "

" They are all sealed in the inn by Mr. Kong. "Lin Chengyao replied.

Lin Xuezhu also admired her uncle very much. He answered every question without diverging his thinking.

She had no choice but to continue to ask: "Is there anyone who got sick due to official duties?

"Not yet. " Lin Chengyao asked in confusion: "Eldest niece, why do you ask these things?" "

Lin Xuezhu didn't answer.

As an uncle of hers, there was only one thing in his mind.

Telling him too much about some things would only increase his troubles.

So he said: "Uncle, you write the prescription first, and I'll go see those officials."

"No, eldest niece, those officials walked with the prisoners. Who knows whether they were infected. You want to Go see them and wait at least a few days to make sure they are okay," Lin Chengyao said worriedly.

Lin Xuezhu tied the face towel tighter and said with a smile: "Don't worry, uncle, I'm in good health and won't be infected."

After saying that, without waiting for Lin Chengyao to say anything more, he turned around and closed the door.

Lin Chengyao shook his head anxiously.

The eldest niece is so stubborn that he can't control her, really.

Chapter 307 Mrs. Lin is kind-hearted and kind-hearted. Please teach us more

. As soon as Lin Xuezhu left the house, the waiter from the inn ran over.

Very attentive attitude.

"Which room do the escort officials live in?" Lin Xuezhu asked.

"I'll take you there." The waiter subconsciously tightened his towel and trotted forward to lead the way.

I have to say that this guy is much smarter than Lin Chengyao.

As he walked, he introduced Lin Xuezhu to the situation at the inn.

Including which room has patients, which room houses the governor's doctor, where is the kitchen, where is the hut, etc.

After following him around, Lin Xuezhu had a general understanding of the situation at the inn.

She even wanted to laugh. If she had known that this little guy was so smart, she should have asked him directly just now.

The two of them walked almost around the inn before arriving at the house where the officials lived.

Lin Xuezhu asked: "You arrange the official servants in such a remote place?"

The boy said: "The official servants want to live here themselves, saying that it is far away from the residences of other prisoners."

Lin Xuezhu immediately understood that these official servants were afraid of being It is contagious, so I chose a remote place.

"Ms. Lin, do you need help knocking on the door?" the boy asked.

Lin Xuezhu shook his head.

Through the door, she could hear the shouting inside.

From the sounds, these officials seemed to be gambling, and they all shouted excitedly.

Lin Xuezhu knew that official positions were divided into three, six or nine levels.

There are people like Liu Kui who look fierce but are actually kind-hearted.

There are also some who are like those in the house, who are all evil.

Lin Xuezhu felt that if she knocked on the door at this time and ruined the "elegant mood" of those people, they probably wouldn't be able to ask anything.

"Who is responsible for the meals in this station?" Lin Xuezhu asked.

The young man replied: "We who are on duty take turns taking charge. Mrs. Lin, do you want to go to the kitchen to take a look?"

Lin Xuezhu looked at the young man again, thinking that such smart children are rare.

So she asked: "What's your name?"

"Chi Goucheng." The boy replied.

If Lin Xuezhu had any saliva in her mouth now, she would have to spit it out.

This name is more interesting than the fake name she used to deceive Zhou Shenrong.

It's just dog leftovers, why don't you still eat them?

God, parents in ancient times were so careless in naming their parents.

But fortunately, this name impressed Lin Xuezhu deeply.

She said: "Let's go to the kitchen first."

Chi Gou Sheng took her to the kitchen.

When I entered the kitchen, I happened to see two people dressed as waiters preparing meals.

Prisoners only eat one meal a day, usually in the afternoon.

Lin Xuezhu knew this.

But because we entered the inn, the time to eat depends on the mood of the cook.

For example, today's meal is a bit late.

When one of the boys saw Chi Goucheng coming, he pointed to a big bowl next to him and said, "Goucheng, give this steamed egg to the officials."

"Okay." Chi Goucheng used his sleeve to cushion the bowl. He said to Lin Xuezhu, "Ms. Lin, please wait a moment. The younger one will be back soon."

Lin Xuezhu continued to look at the two cooking guys.

I saw one of them holding a black basket with cold steamed buns that had been steamed for some time.

The other picked up a few large radishes and cut them with a knife without washing them.

The radishes were cut into strange shapes, big ones, small ones, and put into a big dirty vat together.

Then the man grabbed a handful of salt, threw it into the jar, and stirred it with his hands.

It seemed that they had finished cooking. One of them carried a basket and the other held a vat, and they were about to deliver meals to the prisoners.

"Wait." Lin Xuezhu stopped them.

"Madam, what's the matter with you?" The man carrying the basket stared at Lin Xuezhu and asked impatiently.

Lin Xuezhu said, "Are you taking food for prisoners?"

"That's right." The man replied casually.

Lin Xuezhu was speechless. Not to mention the current epidemic, you have to be extra careful when eating imported food.

Even on normal days, the hygiene of these meals is really worrying.

At first glance, these two people are fooling around, occupying the position but not doing their job well.

She said loudly: "You two, this kind of meal cannot be given to prisoners."

"Who are you?" The person carrying the basket was unhappy, "We thought you were brought by Gou Sheng, so we ignored you. You, you are telling us where to stay when it's cool, don't delay our dinner!"

As he said this, he stretched out his hand to grab Lin Xuezhu.

Lin Xuezhu dodged and avoided.

The man carrying the basket looked her up and down and sneered: "Hey, you are quite agile. What did you do before?"

Lin Xuezhu looked at his cloudy eyes and looked at herself from top to bottom, knowing that he had evil intentions. .

Just as she was about to speak, Chi Goucheng ran back.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was not right, he quickly stepped forward and said, "You two, please don't be rude to Madam Lin."

"What Madam Lin?" The man carrying the basket rolled his eyes dissatisfied.

Chi Goucheng was afraid that he would say something again, so he said first, "It's the Lady Lin whom the Grand Administrator sent to deliver the message before. Didn't she tell us to obey Lady Lin's command in everything?"

After Chi Goucheng finished speaking, he carried the basket The people holding the vat and those holding the vat all showed expressions of enlightenment, and suddenly became respectful.

"Ms. Lin, I'm sorry I didn't recognize you just now." The man carrying the basket had a flattering look on his face.

Lin Xuezhu hated this kind of two-faced person.

If you have the ability to be tough with people, then keep doing it.

What is the operation of changing face?

She turned cold and asked, "Do you know what the epidemic is?"

The man carrying the basket was stunned.

Lin Xuezhu continued to ask: "Do you know if the epidemic in this inn is not well controlled, once it spreads, how much impact it will have on the entire Feiyun City?"

The man carrying the basket remained silent.

Lin Xuezhu raised his voice and said sternly: "Do you think that if you fool those prisoners and ignore their lives, it will not backfire on you? There are nine people who are sick now. What if there are ninety? Are you sure you can escape?"

The man carrying the basket was frightened, lowered his head and said yes repeatedly.

Chi Goucheng stood aside and persuaded: "Mrs. Lin, calm down, we are all little people with little knowledge. Before Mrs. Lin came, we were not aware of the dangers of the epidemic. Mrs. Lin is kind-hearted and please teach us more. We I will definitely listen to Mrs. Lin."

These words made Lin Xuezhu feel a lot better no matter how angry he was.

She turned to the man carrying the basket and asked, "What did I just tell you?"

The man carrying the basket was stumbling and couldn't explain why.

He didn't listen to what Lin Xuezhu said just now.

I just felt that someone was coming out of nowhere, so I started to question him, getting angry and retorting.

The one holding the vat, on the other hand, didn't say a word the whole time, but he listened to what Lin Xuezhu said.

He quickly said: "Ms. Lin didn't finish what she just said. She only said that this meal cannot be eaten by the prisoners. I dare to ask, why is this?"

Lin Xuezhu took a look at the man holding the vat and felt that this person was pretty good. Quite clever.

She turned to Chi Goucheng and said, "How many people are in charge of handling affairs in this station? Let's call them together."

"Young man, go right now." Chi Goucheng trotted away.

Chapter 308 Establishing the Rules

After a short while, Chi Gouchen gathered all the guys in the inn together.

Lin Xuezhu took a quick look and saw that there were only five people.

In addition to Chi Goucheng, who was responsible for receiving the errands, there were two people responsible for cooking, and two people responsible for cleaning.

Lin Xuezhu's station was still some distance away from them.

Chi Gou Sheng knew that she was afraid of the spread of the epidemic, so after bringing the people over, he deliberately kept them from getting too close.

Lin Xuezhu glanced at them and said: "I have a few requirements, I hope you can comply with them."

Chi Goucheng said: "Young ones, please let Mrs. Lin arrange it."

Lin Xuezhu nodded and said: "First, tie the face towel tightly, no matter what the situation Don't take it off."

After hearing her words, two people with loosely tied scarves subconsciously tightened their scarves.

Lin Xuezhu explained: "You are responsible for taking care of everyone in this station, and you are also the bridge for everyone to communicate and communicate, so you must protect yourselves. If you get sick, then everyone who has been in contact with you may be infected, and your body The responsibility you bear is very heavy. As long as you do your job well, I will definitely ask the governor to reward you when the epidemic is over. On the other hand, if the epidemic spreads due to your personal negligence, you will also be punished.

" The words were so powerful that everyone who heard them unconsciously believed them.

"Second, everything at the entrance of this inn must be heated. No one is allowed to eat raw food or drink raw water. If I find out, I will severely punish you!" As she said this, she looked at the two people responsible for cooking.

The one who talked back to her was so frightened that he lowered his head.

"Third, everyone's excrement must be disinfected with lime before it can be transported out. The lime must be dissolved in boiling water and then covered with excrement." Lin Xuezhu said.

"We understand, Mrs. Lin." The two cleaning guys responded quickly.

On the way here, they had already heard from Chi Gou Sheng that the two people in charge of cooking had offended Mrs. Lin, and the consequences would be serious.

Therefore, no matter what Lin Xuezhu said, they listened carefully and with a very respectful attitude.

Lin Xuezhu added: "Fourth, the five of you should perform your own duties. Just do what you are doing well, and you are not allowed to find any excuses to do anything to others. Those responsible for cleaning are not allowed to enter the kitchen area, and those responsible for cooking must be alone. A convenient place."

This idea came to her just now when she heard Chi Goucheng say that because there were few waiters in the inn, everyone helped each other.

The cook and the cleaner, one is responsible for the entrance and the other is responsible for the exit. If this is confused, the risk is really high.

Normally she can't control it, but during special times, she has to strictly control every entry and exit.

Thinking of this, she added: "Fifth, each of you must wash your hands frequently, especially before cooking and after handling excrement. These are the requirements for your job. I will implement them on paper later, and You must accept the supervision of everyone in the station. In addition, the five of you must be on call at any time and accept assignments without shirk. As the saying goes, if you do well, you will be rewarded, and if you do not do well, you will be punished. "

"Yes . !" Several people responded simply.

Lin Xuezhu was generally satisfied.

However, she never looks at what other people say, only what they do.

After explaining, she waved her hand and said, "Let's break up."

All four people left, leaving only Chi Gou.

He said: "Ms. Lin, you have arranged so many things when you first came here, and you haven't even gone to see your room yet. Can I take you with me?"

Lin Xuezhu nodded.

Chi Goucheng was thoughtful but not flattering, respectful but not pretentious. Lin Xuezhu liked his attitude very much.

Chi Goucheng led the way and took Lin Xuezhu to a separate room.

"The three rooms in the middle are the rooms of the two doctors and Dr. Lin. Madam Lin, although your room is a wing, it is on the east side and has a good location. The temporary arrangement is a bit hasty, so please don't mind, Madam Lin."

"It's okay. I'm here to do things, not to enjoy myself. You arranged it well." Lin Xuezhu praised me at the right time.

Chi Goucheng was very happy, and the smile on his face became even brighter.

"Then Mrs. Lin will look at the room first, and the younger one will prepare paper and pen for Mrs. Lin." He said smartly.

Lin Xuezhu likes his cleverness, he can get things done without having to ask himself.

Chi Gou left in a trot.

Lin Xuezhu entered the room and was very satisfied when she saw that the room was not big but very clean.

After a while, Chi Goucheng came back, holding a tray with pen, ink, paper and inkstones on it.

Without Lin Xuezhu's instructions, he placed the things on the small table and stepped aside.

"Is the inn smoked with moxa today?" Lin Xuezhu asked.

"I finished the fumigation in the morning and I'm preparing for it in the evening." Chi Gou Sheng replied.

Lin Xuezhu nodded.

Chi Gou Sheng did a good job indeed. If you asked him anything, he could answer it fluently.

It shows that he sees all directions and listens in all directions, and is very concerned about his work.

Lin Xuezhu decided to observe again.

She walked towards the table, and Chi Goucheng immediately began to sharpen ink for her with discernment.

Lin Xuezhu took the brush and wrote down the five items he just mentioned.

Chi Goucheng waited for her to finish writing, then hesitantly said, "Ms. Lin, you just made a request to the four of them, why didn't you make a request to the younger one?"

When Lin Xuezhu heard this, he was a little unresponsive.

What a child who actively demands progress!

She couldn't help but laugh, "Of these five items, if there are any that are relevant to you, you just have to do them well. Except for the fact that you didn't tie your face tightly when I first came here, I haven't found anything else that you need to improve on. place."

Chi Gou Sheng scratched his head in embarrassment upon hearing this.

"The little one is just a rough guy. He hasn't read any books, so he didn't understand the purpose of wearing a hijab at first. After listening to Madam Lin's words just now, the little one understands a little bit. Thank you Madam Lin for your teaching."

Lin Xue Seeing that he was on the road, Zhu was willing to say a few more words, so he said: "The most effective way to prevent epidemics is to cover your mouth and nose and wash your hands frequently. Some people may be normal in a day or two even though they are normal now." So if you want to protect yourself, you have to treat everyone as a patient. If you protect yourself, you are also protecting others."

Chi Goucheng thought carefully for a long time, then nodded in agreement, "Ms. Lin . , I understand, I will post the request written by Mrs. Lin in the most conspicuous position."

As he said that, he was about to run out.

Lin Xuezhu stopped him and said, "Please keep an eye on me these days. If you don't do what I ask you to do, remind me first. If you don't change after reminding me several times, come and tell me."

Chi Gou He hesitated for a moment, but he soon understood.

Madam Lin wants to promote him.

"I understand!" Chi Goucheng ran out happily.

Chapter 309 Where does this woman come from?

When Lin Xuezhu saw a teacup on the table, he got himself a cup of spiritual spring water.

After finishing her drink, she strolled toward the kitchen.

She had just finished setting up rules for a few guys, and she planned to see if they had any effect.

Unexpectedly, before reaching the door, I heard voices coming from inside.

"We are both unlucky. We happened to catch up with the current epidemic in this batch of prisoners. It's just that they can't go home, and they have to stay with the epidemic patients. If they are infected with the epidemic and die, what will happen if there are seniors and young children in the family? Do it!"

Lin Xuezhu heard that this was the one who was the most disobedient.

Another said: "Tiedan, don't think so. Although we have memorized some ideas, didn't Mrs. Lin say that we should perform well and if we are successful, she will ask for rewards for us."

The young man named Tiedan said He snorted and said disdainfully: "How much power does a woman have? She said she was sent by the Grand Administrator. Who knows the real situation? You believe her when she says it. You are so easy to deceive."

Another said: "Like this You said that, what does Mrs. Lin want? We caught up and were sealed here, but Mrs. Lin asked to come in. "

Tiedan sneered: "If a woman comes out to show her face, I will do it for her.

She was so embarrassed. Besides, it's up to the doctor to cure the disease. She can cure all the patients just by bluffing? She just wanted to get some benefits, so she was really willing to do it! Lin Xuezhu walked in.

Tiedan was still talking nonsense, but the other person saw Lin Xuezhu and immediately stabbed Tiedan.

"What's your name?" Lin Xuezhu asked.

Tiedan's whole body trembled. He turned around and saw Lin Xuezhu, and his whole body suddenly froze.

The man said: "The villain's name is Wangcai."

Lin Xuezhu was silent for a moment.

Gou Sheng, Tie Dan, Wang Cai...

Did she encounter all the most perfunctory names?

Lin Xuezhu calmed down and said, "So Tiedan, what do you think of me?"

Tiedan was shuddered, lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

Lin Xuezhu despised people like him the most.

The words you say behind someone's back are harder to hear. When asked to express opinions in front of people, he doesn't dare to say a word.

So all that courage was spent on gossiping, right?

Lin Xuezhu said: "Since I am here to deal with the epidemic problem, if there is anything inappropriate, you can bring it up and discuss it with me. Now I will give you a chance to say that it was you who didn't speak up, so I'm sorry, I have to deal with you "

After hearing this, Tiedan suddenly raised his head and stared at Lin Xuezhu guiltily.

"You should leave the kitchen now and go back to your room. I will arrange for you to leave later." Lin Xuezhu said.

Tiedan was shocked and looked at Wangcai at a loss.

Wangcai was smarter, and quickly begged: "Ms. Lin, he just has a bad mouth, and what he says is unintentional. Please spare him this time."

"You can guarantee that he will talk nonsense like this . Will there be no problems with his work?" Lin Xuezhu asked, "Or do you have to be a guarantor for him? If something goes wrong with him, will you bear joint liability?"

Wangcai didn't dare to speak.

Lin Xuezhu said to Tiedan with a cold face, "What are you doing standing here? Why don't you go back to the room?"

"Ms. Lin, I was wrong." Tiedan finally came to his senses and said, trembling all over, "Please forgive me this time. I will work hard and won't cause you any trouble."

"Once?" Lin Xuezhu asked, "How many times has this happened?"

Tiedan then remembered that he had been treating Mrs. Lin badly before.

Suddenly there was some despair.

Lin Xuezhu said: "I am not doing this against you personally, nor is it because you have been disrespectful to me twice. In this current epidemic, I need you to understand that you shoulder responsibilities, and your work is of great significance to the entire Feiyun City. Meaning. If you don't understand this matter and only think about personal gains and losses, and only complain, then I will send you out as you wish!"

Tiedan became even more panicked and said hurriedly: "Mrs. Lin, I will send you out! You are really wrong. If you send me out this time, it will be like cutting off my future! I have an elder and a younger one, and I need this job to support my family. Madam Lin, please do it!

" Unmoved, he snorted coldly: "Since you know that you have seniors and juniors, why don't you be more cautious in doing things? When things come to an end, things start to get miserable. Why didn't you think about this when you were just talking nonsense? As long as you put your mind on it Even if it comes to work, I won't cut off your future. But if I forgive you once, you will not repent, but you will take advantage of it, so I can't forgive you!"

"Ms. Lin, it happened ! What's going on?" At this time, Gou Sheng, who had returned from doing something, ran in.

Lin Xuezhu said: "Just in time, go and notify the guards at the door and ask them to send a message to the Prefect's Mansion, saying that there is a cook who is dissatisfied. I can't use this person and ask them to send another cook over."

Gou Sheng wrinkled. Frowning, he stared at Tiedan with a look that made him hateful.

But he also knew that in the current epidemic situation, every decision Mrs. Lin made was reasonable, so without saying anything, she hurried out to do errands.

Tiedan clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and even the veins on his forehead popped out.

After a long while, he said sullenly: "Ms. Lin, I think you were sent by the Prefect's Mansion, so I'm giving you some respect. Since you don't know what's good and what's good, don't blame me for being ruthless."

As he said that, he suddenly turned to Lin Xuezhu. Pounced over.

Wangcai knew his character well and quickly hugged his waist and said to Lin Xuezhu: "Ms. Lin, run quickly. He has a stubborn temper. I'm afraid he's confused. Don't suffer, Mrs. Lin."

Lin Xuezhu stood there, tattooed. Nothing moved.

Seeing how arrogant she was, Tiedan became even more angry and rushed forward with a howl.

For a moment, Wangcai couldn't hold him back and was so anxious that he shouted repeatedly.

"Let him go." Lin Xuezhu said coldly.

Wangcai was stunned.

While he was dazed, Tiedan finally broke through his restraints and rushed towards Lin Xuezhu with his fist raised.

Lin Xuezhu calmly dodged his fist and knocked him down with a stumble.

Just kidding, she can beat a master like her husband in a few tricks.

Would she be unable to withstand this kind of attack with only brute force and no skills?

hehe!

Tiedan fell so hard that he was stunned.

What just happened?

Why does his chin hurt so much?

Lin Xuezhu stepped on his neck and crushed it down hard.

Tiedan immediately let out a painful scream.

People who see the wealth are dumbfounded.

Lin Xuezhu sneered and said, "You still want to hit a woman?"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

He wanted to stand up, but it was like a huge weight was weighing on his neck, preventing him from moving at all.

Where did this woman come from?

How come you have so much strength?

Tiedan is a little doubtful about life.

Chapter 310 It seems that the eldest niece is quite proud.

Just when Tiedan and Lin Xuezhu were in a stalemate, Lin Chengyao and two doctors from the government heard the noise and ran over.

Lin Chengyao, who was running ahead, was the first to see the scene in the kitchen, and immediately became uneasy.

He shouted: "Hey, little brother Tiedan, how did you offend my eldest niece? Tell me, who is it not good for you to offend? Why do you offend her?"

Tiedan was even more confused.

Is Dr. Lin trying to break up the fight, or is he trying to save someone?

Why turn around and blame him as a victim?

Lin Chengyao clicked his tongue, "Tiedan, I'm not blaming you. My eldest niece is the most reasonable person. Anyone who is dealt with by her must have made a big mistake. Please tell me, you have made a mistake. What's wrong?"

Tiedan: Doctor Lin, do you think I can speak now?

"Woooooooooo..." Tiedan begged for mercy.

Lin Chengyao sighed and said to Lin Xuezhu: "My eldest niece, calm down and don't get so angry that I won't be able to explain to your father later."

"Uncle, don't worry, I will do what I should do and I won't be angry. ." Lin Xuezhu said calmly.

Lin Chengyao took a deep breath and said, "That's good, that's good. You've always been able to carry my eldest niece clearly, so uncle can rest assured."

Tiedan: How come you two are still chatting, I'm still being stepped on!

Lin Chengyao turned his gaze to Wangcai and said, "Wangcai, tell me, what happened just now?"

Wangcai recovered from the shock and carefully told the truth about what had just happened.

After hearing this, Lin Chengyao frowned and said: "Tiedan, this is indeed your fault. If you want to say bad things about my eldest niece, you have to wait until she leaves before you say it. If she hears this, how will you end it? Come on, Just wait for her to calm down."

Tiedan: Doctor Lin, is this the point? You should save me!

Lin Xuezhu: Uncle, please don't distort the point.

At this moment, Gou Sheng came in with two officers and soldiers.

When they saw the scene in the kitchen, the three of them were also shocked.

Especially Gou Sheng, thinking that he had only been out for a while and Tiedan made things so messy, he hated iron even more.

"That's the man." Gou Sheng said to the two officers and soldiers.

When Lin Xuezhu saw the officers and soldiers coming, he put his feet back and retreated to the side.

The officers and soldiers lifted Tiedan, who was almost suffocated and was limp, and said respectfully to Lin Xuezhu: "Ms. Lin, we have taken this person away. The message that Mrs. Lin asked us to pass on is also on the way."

Lin Xuezhu nodded, "Lock him first. " If he doesn't get sick in the woodshed for five days, he will be released."

"I understand," the officer said politely.

Then he held the iron egg and left.

Lin Chengyao said to Lin Xuezhu: "My eldest niece, I have discussed with two doctors in the government to prescribe a dose of preventive medicine for people who are not sick. This is a list of medicinal materials. See if you can..."

Speaking of Here, he lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Let my uncle's old friend think of a solution."

Lin Xuezhu found it funny.

Why did her uncle, who was single-minded and didn't think too much about what he said, suddenly become cautious?

That's a good thing, though.

She took the list, glanced at it, and knew that she had everything in her space, so she agreed.

Wangcai was quite clever. Although Tiedan was taken away, he didn't say anything and continued working quickly.

In order to show that he strictly abides by Lin Xuezhu's requirements, he also washed his hands before working.

"The kitchen is a powerful place, let's evacuate." Lin Xuezhu called to everyone.

The two doctors exchanged greetings with her and then went back to their respective rooms.

Lin Xuezhu returned to her room, wrote a small note, and rolled it with the medicine list.

He took a small bamboo tube from the space and stuffed the medicine list and note into it.

After doing this, she walked out of the room, came to the courtyard wall, took out the bamboo whistle, blew a few times, and then placed the bamboo tube on the courtyard wall.

After walking around and returning to the original place, I found that the things on the courtyard wall had indeed been taken away.

Satisfied, she returned to her room.

"Ms. Lin, the food is here."

Just after sitting for a while, Chi Gou Sheng's voice came from outside the house.

"Come in." Lin Xuezhu said.

Chi Goucheng pushed the door open and came in, put the food on the table for Lin Xuezhu, and said apologetically: "Ms. Lin, these meals are all made from scratch. It's a little late. Isn't Mrs. Lin hungry?" "

It's okay." Lin Xuezhu can't be eaten. She was hungry, after all, no one could eat as much as she did in her space.

Chi Goucheng said: "Ms. Lin, please take it easy. I'll come over later to clean up the dishes."

Lin Xuezhu nodded and finished the food quickly as soon as the others left.

Then she walked out of the room and went to the backyard.

In the backyard, Lin Chengyao and two doctors were preparing to boil medicine.

Lin Xuezhu quietly changed the water for boiling the medicine into spiritual spring water.

"My eldest niece, it will be smoked in a while. If you feel choked, just stay outside for a while." Lin Chengyao said.

Lin Xuezhu smiled, "I'll help you boil the medicine here."

"That's good, we are short of manpower." Lin Chengyao said, pouring a pot of medicine into a large casserole.

Lin Xuezhu took a small bench, sat by the stove, and fanned herself gently with a small fan.

The heat of this decoction should not be too high or too low, and you have to keep an eye on it.

When Lin Xuezhu arrived, the two doctors went to smoke moxa.

Only the uncle and nephew were left in the backyard.

The two of them cooked the medicine in silence.

After a while, I heard the voices of two people talking from about a room away.

"I heard from Wang Cai that Mrs. Lin is really powerful. A guy like Tiedan who can carry two bags of rice was knocked down by her in one go."

"Let me tell you, she is a woman who dares to enter Yizhan is indeed capable."

"You must be capable, but don't you think it's too scary? Women are not as strong as men, not to mention that man is a tough guy

. He just can't see the heat, and he deserves to be taught a lesson by Madam Lin. With his temperament, I really don't think anyone can do anything to him unless he encounters a tough opponent."

"The key is that Madam Lin can beat an iron egg, don't you think it's outrageous.

"I think Mrs. Lin looks so weak. I didn't expect her to be so strong. We have to be more careful in the future. Where are Mrs. Lin's five requirements? "

" Yes, yes, hurry up and take a look, don't forget it. If you anger Madam Lin, you will end up like Tiedan."

Lin Xuezhu could tell that the two people's voices were getting farther and farther away. One is the cleaning guy.

It seems that after Tiedan's incident, she has gained a reputation for being evil.

But it's okay, emergency times call for means, and if you can rely on "personal charm" to do things, you don't need to rely on means.

Lin Xuezhu was quite complacent and glanced at Lin Chengyao with a smile.

Lin Chengyao originally thought that his eldest niece would get angry again after being gossiped about behind her back.

After being frightened for a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief when his eldest niece suddenly smiled.

Lin Chengyao: It seems that the eldest niece is quite proud.
