Chapter 1160 (1/2)
After more than a month, the refugee villages in the northwest of Luoyue City, four or five miles away, have become quite large. Refugees from the southwest border gathered here to build wooden houses and bamboo houses for themselves and their families. The nearby wasteland was gradually reclaimed, but the soil was not fertile enough to grow some vegetables that were easy to survive.
Before the village had a name, the villagers simply called it a refugee village.
From time to time, there will be new refugees in the village, and they will first move into the camp outside the village to live temporarily. In recent days, from time to time, there will be a whimper and a groan in one of the camps.
The camp was poorly arranged. There were only a few shabby straw mats on the ground, and a few pots and cans, dry food and some clothes were scattered around.
On two straw mats, a girl of five or six years old and a teenager about ten years old, were lying on two straw mats. Both of them were flushed, their eyes closed, and their faces showed a look of pain.
Next to the straw mat, a ragged woman took out a wet towel from a jar filled with water. After it was dried, it was folded into strips and placed on the girl's forehead.
Looking at the red rash on the palm of the young girl's hand, and looking at her son who also began to have a fever in the middle of the night last night, the woman felt a pang in her heart, as if she had been cut by a knife, and her tears fell down again. She said to a man in gray in her thirties: ”let's go and ask a doctor, my father...”
At first, the woman thought that her daughter was suffering from tiredness and fatigue, so that she could not get rid of the high fever. But now she saw a rash on her hands and feet, and even her eldest son began to have fever. She felt something was wrong in her heart.
Moreover, her daughter has been burning for three and a half days, and she has been in a coma for a day and a night. If the fever goes on like this, the woman is really afraid that her daughter will become stupid. A fool in the same village used to have a fever for four days when she was eight years old. Later, she recovered a life by luck, but she was so stupid that she knew how to salivate every day and how to recruit dogs to tease cats.
I only have this son and a daughter. If If they all How can you live!
The man in Gray was anxiously walking back and forth in the camp. How could he not care about the children? They were all his own flesh and blood. But they had fled all the way and spent most of their money. Now they only had a drop of money left.
After the hanging money is spent, how should their family live in the future? Although shiziye is kind, they can get two porridge and a steamed bread every day, which is not a long-term plan.
What's more, I'm afraid the money is not enough to see a doctor!
The man in grey took a circle again, and finally bit his teeth and said, ”wait here, son. I'll call for a doctor.”
The woman's eyes were sour and her face was happy. She also knew that she had not much money. The woman took a deep breath and said to her husband, ”my son, you should go early and return early...”
The man in gray touched the hanging money hidden in his chest, nodded and walked out of the tent. Who knows, before he went out, he heard a lot of noise outside. It seems that many people are coming towards this side.
The man in gray opened the curtain at the mouth of the tent. Sure enough, a few Zhang away, there were seven or eight people coming towards this place. Some of them were familiar with each other. They should be villagers of this refugee village.
”Uncle Li.” The man in gray clasped his fist at one of the old men in his fifties. Uncle Li was an old boy and upright. He was respected by the villagers in this refugee village and often asked him to deal with some disputes in the village.
When the four members of the gray man family arrived at the refugee village yesterday, Uncle Li came to say hello and helped settle down.
Before Uncle Li said anything, a round aunt in green beside him could not wait to point to the man in Gray's nose and said, ”Uncle Li, it's their home! Yesterday, our second dog son played with their big cow for a while, and today he has a fever. I heard from sister Hu that his daughter has been burning for several days. It must have been his family who gave the illness to our two dogs! ” The more she said, the more angry she became, and the more she spoke, the louder her voice became.
”Yes, that's right, and my family's Zhaodi!” A young woman in her twenties, dressed in pomegranate colored dresses, echoed in a shrill voice.
”Uncle Li,” said Aunt Qingyi, clapping her thigh and crying, ”his daughter doesn't know about the strange disease. Now even our children are sick. It's really a pest! How can a man like this live in a refugee village! ”
The noise here also attracted a lot of nearby villagers, and they all surrounded one after another. When the villagers heard what was going on, they were indignant. Who had no children And who knows if this strange disease can be transmitted to adults! Maybe it's children who are weak first, and then it's the turn of adults?!
The more the villagers thought about it, the more terrible they felt. They didn't dare to get too close to the man in grey for fear of being ill.
A strong man with a hoe demonstrated: ”go away! Get out of here with your family
At this time, the woman in the tent came out of the tent, sobbing and pleading, ”ladies and brothers, our children are just sick. We're going to ask the doctor...””Sister Hu, do you think there is a rash on their daughter?” The sharp eyed aunt in green suddenly interrupted the woman and pointed to the unconscious girl in the tent.
The young woman looked in the direction of aunt Qingyi's fingers. Seeing a large red rash on the girl's hand, she suddenly thought of something. She stepped back several steps and said in a trembling voice: ”acne Isn't she pox? ”
Although chickenpox is better than smallpox, but the terrible infectivity is also one of the most difficult diseases to treat, especially adults, if infected with chickenpox, it is much more serious than the disease of children!
For a while, many villagers turned pale and stepped back a few steps to avoid it.
Uncle Li's face is not very good-looking. If it is chicken pox, it would be too dangerous for the villagers to leave the family here. But you can't let them out! What should we do if we infect others again?!
If chickenpox spreads, it will be one of the major events in Luoyue city.
They finally won the acceptance of shiziye and were able to start a new life in Luoyue city. If people knew that chickenpox was spread from their refugee villages, they would be rejected by Luoyue city and have no place to live again!
For a moment, you can't make a decision on this matter
The woman was in a hurry and knelt down and said, ”Uncle Li, my girl has been burning for several days and can't wait any longer. His father is going to see the doctor. Mr. Lee, it's not chicken pox It must not be chickenpox. I've had pox before... ”
It's good that she didn't explain. With this explanation, the aunt in green seemed to have gone mad. She suddenly rushed up and grabbed the woman's skirt, thumped and beat again and again: ”evil spirit! If you two dogs of my family are killed by you, I will pay your life for your life Her man died when he fled. Er Gouzi is the only one in their family!
The woman dodged and dodged and explained, ”it's really not chickenpox...”
Although the other people on the side have the heart to persuade, but when they think of chicken pox, they are afraid and have no action.
”Don't fight, don't fight...”
In the chaos, there was a sound of horse's hooves trampling on the official road not far away. As they approached, the villagers could not help but follow the sound and saw a group of cars and horses rumbling towards this side.
The sound of horses' hooves and wheels was approaching. It was obvious that the chariots and horses were heading for the refugee village.
After a while, they saw a middle-aged man in a brown brocade robe, nine or ten strong men in light armor of the same color, and three grey covered carriages stopped at the entrance of the village.
”Xu --”
the capable middle-aged man reined in the red horse under his crotch, frowned at the two women in a group, and said in a deep voice, ”who is making trouble here?”
In his voice, there was a momentum of not being angry but powerful. At first glance, it was the officials who came out. Who were the common people not afraid of officers and soldiers.
Aunt Qingyi subconsciously stopped her hand, drew back a little, then took a deep breath, and boldly pointed to the woman: ”Junye, his children have chickenpox, and they harm people everywhere! Master Jun, arrest them
Chickenpox?! Middle aged people, namely Zhu Xing, frowned slightly.
The woman once again explained, ”Jun ye, it's really not chicken pox...”
While speaking, two middle-aged doctors with medicine boxes came down from the carriage. The two doctors saluted Zhu Xing: ”housekeeper Zhu.”
Housekeeper Zhu?! Many people on one side were stunned and said in their hearts: isn't this man the master of the army? Why did the doctor call him a housekeeper?!
”You go to the tent and show it to the two children.” Zhu Xing told the doctor in a concise way.
The woman pinched herself in disbelief, and the doctor came. Isn't it possible for her children to be saved?!
The woman wiped off the tears from the corner of her eyes and said to the two doctors, ”doctor, my girl has been burning for several days, and it's getting hotter and hotter. Please show her the doctor quickly...”
The woman went into the tent with the two doctors.
After a while, one of the doctors with a goatee came out of it and said to Zhu Xing, ”housekeeper Zhu, it's a seven day rash.”
Seven day rash?! For a moment, the villagers looked at each other, and the fear in their hearts instantly subsided. The pomegranate colored young woman could not help saying, ”doctor, is it chicken pox?”
Zhu Xing gave a wink, and the doctor immediately explained the symptoms of the seven day rash and the difference with chickenpox On the seventh day, it can basically heal itself, only infect children, not adults
These have already calmed down the villagers who were originally in panic.
Zhu Xinglang said in a voice to the villagers, ”I came here at the order of the princess. To avoid the spread of the” seven day rash ”, please cooperate. If there are children with fever at home, please send them here as soon as possible for the doctor to treat them. These days, people in the village should pay attention to bathing and changing clothes. Please do not leave the village at will until the ”seven day rash” is under control
The villagers responded with fear. Then the people brought by Zhu Xing moved quickly, and the doctors treated the children. The medicine boys removed the stoves and medicine cans and began to cook medicine. The guards from Bixiao hall smoked wormwood in the village to expel the disease.After one incense stick, the other three sick children in the village were moved to the tent of the man in grey. The girl named Niuniu and the little boy named Daniel had already taken the medicine and their temperature had dropped slightly.
In addition to Niuniu, other children's condition is still stable. As the doctor said, patients with mild symptoms usually only need seven days to heal themselves, but they will suffer a lot. Like Niu Niu and Xiao Rongyu, they are already in critical condition. Xiao Rongyu is young, but she is a little heavier.
The woman touched her daughter's forehead for a while, and then touched the young man's forehead. Although the two children's faces were still flushed, their condition was obviously better.
”Niuniu, Daniel...” Once again, tears came from the corner of her eye, and she almost thought that she had lost two children at once.
Fortunately, fortunately
”Thank you very much Thank you, housekeeper Zhu! Thank you, housekeeper Zhu The woman kowtowed to Zhu Xing. They not only saved their two children, but also saved their own lives.
The man in grey is not good at words. He knocks his head three times and his forehead is blue and blue.
