Chapter 98

There is also a large group of people stationed on a hill in Luoshui County.

It was Chen Nuo, the magistrate of Luoshui County, and others.

In addition to the people in the county government office, there were also their families and many nearby residents. There were quite a lot of people, but under the arrangement of County Magistrate Chen, they had a place to shelter from the rain and sleep, and the most important food was also properly placed.

But the environment is like this, so some elderly people, children, and even adults with poor resistance have been infected with colds.

Although County Magistrate Chen brought a lot of medicinal herbs, he didn't have a doctor.

Not to mention a regular doctor, there isn’t even a barefoot doctor.

In Qingzhou, a poor and remote place, doctors are also a precious resource. In Luoshui County, there are only two clinics with legitimate business licenses: Jishiditang of the Luo family and Baicaotang owned by Doctor Jiang, the mother's family of Jiang Suying.

There are indeed more barefoot doctors, but they are just a handful, otherwise it would be hard to find one among these thousand people.

Finally, as a last resort, some elderly people, based on their decades of experience, picked out several medicinal herbs that they were familiar with and thought were suitable for their symptoms and boiled them in water to drink.

The effect is predictable. Some conditions got better, while others became worse. Coughing, spitting, and runny noses could be heard from time to time in the station.

County Magistrate Chen: “…”

Although he has a separate wooden shed, it is not soundproof!

He felt sick.

Looking at the rolling yellow mud water at the foot of the mountain, he sighed heavily. Where can he find a doctor at this time?

Only one-third of the three-month period had passed. If he continued like this, he would soon be sick.

"Sir." County Magistrate Zhang came over wearing a straw raincoat and said, "Governor Wen has sent someone to look for us again.

"Don't worry about him." Although County Magistrate Chen was no longer in the county, he still knew that Governor Wen had sent people to look for him many times, so he naturally ignored them.

Since he was able to approve the business documents for his subordinates and Jiang Yitao to go to Chunzhou County to buy grain, and also left the glass cup that Jiang Yipei left for him "I hope you can use it" as a setup, he never thought that one day he would move the grain back.

As a small county magistrate, he was only capable of managing the three acres of land in his own area and had no control over other places.

The forty-fifth day of heavy rain.

Landslides occurred in many places in Chunzhou County and Luoshui County. Even the hilltop occupied by County Magistrate Chen collapsed in part, injuring many people.

Jiangjia Village ultimately could not escape the fate of being flooded.

"Let's move..." Jiang Lizheng sighed, "In a few days, the water will flood to our doorstep." He had to leave no matter how reluctant he was.

Jiang Yipei also sighed, turned around and ordered every household to pack up their things quickly, and then arranged for patrol teams to move to Yunling Mountain one after another.

Seek stability rather than speed.

The mud on the mountain was softened by the rain, so every step had to be taken very carefully. Even young and strong men did not dare to be careless.

Most of the food had been moved to the mountains long ago. Each household packed up the commonly used ones and took them away. The rest that could not be taken away was placed in the cellar. The cellar entrance was covered with two layers of plastic cloth for waterproofing, and then pressed down with thick wooden boards and large stones.

If water got in, or if the boards and stones were washed away and the cellar was flooded, it would be fatal.

Everyone in the village, big and small, young and old, carried packages on their backs. They took a last look at the village and walked towards Yunling Mountain.

Halfway through the journey, an old lady couldn't help but turned back and burst into tears. This triggered a chain reaction, and several old ladies started crying as well. Old Lady Yang, who hadn't thought too much about it, couldn't help but feel sad upon hearing the cry.

"We're on our way, why are you howling? Hold it back!" An old man was scolding his wife.

"I am so sad!" The old lady gave him a sidelong glance: "It's raining so hard. I don't know if my home will be there when I return... Woo..."

Suddenly, many old ladies and young wives couldn't stop crying, and even some old men couldn't help but shed tears.
