The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Now, every family has planted their crops.

This time, the villagers planted rice instead of corn.

There's no way. It's been raining every day these days and the water in the reservoir is so full that it's overflowing.

Fortunately, when the reservoir was built, a river channel was built downstream of the reservoir.

After the water overflowed, it flowed downstream along the river and eventually flowed into a ravine.

Lu Qingqing went to see it these days and found that the ditch was very deep.

Based on the current rainfall, it is estimated that it will take more than a month to fill the ditch.

The water storage capacity of the reservoir and this ditch is sufficient even if there is no rain in the next two or three months.

Therefore, the villagers discussed it and finally decided to grow rice.

After the agreement was reached, Lu Qingqing told Lu Tianli everything.

He informed the villagers of the current situation and asked them to cooperate with the officers and soldiers.

One night a few days later, several ragged men came to Baoshan Town.

Looking at the lit oil lamps at the foot of the mountain, the men's eyes lit up.

Finally they came across a village and were able to go in and grab some food.

God knows, they were chased by that group of border guards and almost died outside.

If it hadn't rained so much, they would have dived into the water and hidden themselves.

By now, he would have been arrested.

The few of them moved quietly as they approached the village.

When we arrived at the village entrance, we found that it was blocked by a wall.

They cursed silently for a few times, squatted outside the wall and whispered a few words.

In the end, they unanimously decided to climb over the wall and take a look.

Although, villages with walls like this are usually well-defended.

If they go in, they may take a big risk.

But they hadn't eaten for several days, and they had to eat wild vegetables every day. They were so hungry that they felt dizzy and dizzy.

In order to avoid pursuit, they took small roads these days.

Baoshan Town is the only village they have encountered in the past four days.

After discussing it, the few of them chose a spot on the edge and worked together to climb over the wall.

They had just entered and taken a few steps when they heard footsteps approaching.

In a panic, they took shelter in the corner of a house.

But as soon as I squatted down, I heard a loud shout above my head.

"Who are you? Get down with your head in your hands!"

Several people stood up in panic and tried to run, but then they heard the sound of a gunshot overhead.

The person running in front was shot in the thigh and fell to the ground instantly.

The people nearby were frightened by this and were quickly surrounded by the patrol soldiers who arrived quickly.

A quarter of an hour later, several people were tied up tightly and pushed into a small house at the entrance of the village.

This house was previously used by soldiers on night watch.

At this moment, they were contributed first to detain these people who came from nowhere.

The oil lamp lit up and the captured men discovered it.

They seemed to have come to some extraordinary place.

These people were all wearing the same strange clothes as the border guards, and their weapons were even more powerful, even including muskets.

Could it be that he broke into the military camp?

That would be like walking into a trap.

But soon, they had no time to pay attention to anything else.

Looking at the leading soldier, he took out the tools used for torture, which were still stained with dried blood!

Several people were so frightened that they nearly peed their pants, and explained their origins in detail.

When the leading officer was carrying the torture instruments out of the house, the soldier next to him gave him a thumbs up.

"Brother Xun, you are really awesome!

We didn't even lift a finger, and those guys confessed everything!"

Brother Xun raised his head proudly and patted the shoulders of his brothers.

"When I was smearing chicken blood on it before, who was laughing at me?"

The brothers next to me are flexible.

"I was blind and didn't recognize Brother Xun. Please be magnanimous and forgive me!"

The two of them chatted and laughed while going to report to their boss.

When the leader of the guards heard that these people had escaped from the border area, he suddenly remembered what Lu Qingqing had told him before.

He said anxiously:

"Were you two wearing protective gear properly when you were arresting and interrogating people?"

Seeing how serious their boss was, the two of them remembered what had happened a few days ago.

The two thought about the process and gave a positive answer.

The guard leader relaxed a little after hearing this.

He told the two of them what had happened and asked them to keep a close eye on these people.

Tomorrow, he will send someone to send these people to Yining County and have them detained by the county government.

How to deal with the matter next will be decided by the county government.

...

A month and a half later, in the cities and counties of King Huai's fiefdom, the requirement for everyone to stay at home was basically no longer enforced.

About half a month ago, the prescription for the new virus epidemic was finally developed.

Prince Huai's palace quickly sent prescriptions and medicines for the epidemic to various counties and cities, which then prepared the medicines on their own, and the epidemic was quickly brought under control.

Although the gates of Yining County have not been opened yet, things inside the city have gradually returned to normal.

Zhenniang and a group of female workers were weaving in the house when Tian Yongnian and his wife came over carrying two large bags of things.

After the two sides met and exchanged greetings, Zhenniang led them to the reception room.

Tian Yongnian and his wife put the things on the table and knelt down in front of Zhenniang.

"Mother Zhen, we came here today to thank you for saving my son's life!"

Zhenniang was frightened by this scene and hurried forward to support him.

"Manager Tian, ​​what are you doing?

Auntie, please get up quickly!"

Zhenniang wanted to help the two of them up, but Tian Yongnian and his wife had already discussed it.

He kowtowed three times before getting up.

The three of them then sat down and talked about what had happened in the past few days.

Previously, Manager Tian’s youngest son had a high fever, and he was forced to go from house to house asking for medicine.

But after asking everyone for help, I only got a prescription from Zhenniang.

He actually didn't know whether his youngest son had the plague or not.

But he didn't dare to think too much and could only convince himself that it was just a common fever.

Otherwise, he didn't dare to think whether he could hold on.

After returning home, he immediately boiled the medicine and gave it to the child.

To be honest, he himself was not sure whether this medicine would work.

Just keep in mind that after taking the medicine, there will be more hope.

Unexpectedly, the medicine was very effective.

Not long after taking the medicine, the child's high fever gradually subsided.

That evening, the child was able to sit up and eat.

Until today, the child has never been sick again.

Zhenniang listened and was also very happy for the child.

In fact, the season when epidemics are transmitted is generally also the peak season for the common cold.

Even if there is no epidemic, there will be people with common colds who have fever.

The initial symptoms of both diseases are the same, which can make people feel uneasy.

In this case, if the manager is bad, they will directly drag the animals away and bury them outside the city for fear of infection.

The person who was originally not in serious trouble was actually killed.

Fortunately, Magistrate Qiao of Yining County emphasized this aspect to the soldiers.

This kind of thing did not happen in Yining County.
