Chapter 2005 Messy footsteps in the middle of the night

Saying that the man was poisoned would not surprise people too much. Instead, people would think that this is normal and a sign that a storm is coming.

The next day, when Rong Yi woke up, she didn't get any news. It was still the same outside, she was sick and crazy. Guo Zhixiang had not slept a wink for two nights because of this matter.

Just one night, Rong Yi couldn't sit still and wanted to go out for a look, but rationally told herself that going out at this time would be causing trouble for others.

Zhu Lingyu said: "Waiting like this is not an option. If you are worried, I will accompany you out. We will sit in the carriage and close the doors and windows tightly. Nothing will happen."

Rong Yi was a little moved. It was not her character to be unable to shrink. When someone tried to persuade her, she even refused to do so. She said, "Anyway, those who have contracted the disease have been taken for treatment, and those who have not contracted the disease have also been detained." I don’t dare to go out at home, and it’s not that dangerous to go out on the streets at the moment. Sitting in the house like this, hearing news all the time, will inevitably make people feel uneasy. "

After saying this, he became more determined to go out.

"Come on, prepare a car!"

Without further ado, the two of them each took Yu Heng, Zhu Yu, and Duan Tiancheng with them, leaving the others in the mansion. After getting on the carriage, Rong Yi touched the thicker face towel on her face, with a cold look on her face, and opened the window He opened it a crack and looked at the slightly "withered" scene outside the window. His heart was blocked and he said, "Go to the Sixth Lady and have a look."

It’s not fun to go to anyone’s house at this time, but it’s okay not to go.

This group of people wrapped themselves tightly from head to toe and walked on the street, which was also a unique sight. When they knocked on the wooden door of Maixiang Shop, there was no movement for a long time, so they knocked again.

At this time, I heard footsteps approaching, and someone asked softly: "Who is outside?"

Rong Yi said: "Sixth lady, do you still remember me? I bought Fu Rong from your house before."

The people inside paused, and then there was the sound of the bolt being opened. The door opened a little, and the Sixth Lady also covered her head and face, only revealing a pair of eyes, looking at the "fully armed" people outside, smiling. He rolled his eyes, turned sideways to let them in, and then said: "I didn't expect that at this time, some of them are still in the county. I thought they had already gone back. This is not good. There is a sudden outbreak here. If there is a plague, maybe a few of them will be trapped here and unable to leave?"

Seeing that she didn't dislike her, Rong Yi also smiled and said, "I didn't have time to go back. There are still things to deal with here. I heard that the plague outside was sudden and serious, so I thought of coming to see the Sixth Madam. I'll see if the Madam is well. Don’t worry, I wonder if Fatty is okay?”

The Sixth Lady sighed and said, "She and I can't see each other now. It's so serious that I don't dare to go to her house to find her, and it's hard for her to come to my place to see me. If she gets infected, the whole family will be in trouble." , the day before yesterday, she also threw a piece of paper for me from the courtyard wall, with a flower drawn on it, I guess she is fine."

I drew a flower, and this way of reporting peace is Coca-Cola.

The few people wanted to find a place to sit down, but they were led into the inner courtyard by Lady Six.

She said: "Now, I am the only one at home. My husband and his children have gone back to the countryside. The village is simple and has a smaller population and is safer."

Rong Yi asked her: "Why don't you go back?"

While making tea, the Sixth Lady said: "I still have bags of glutinous rice ordered from several stores here, and there are also things that others have left for me to keep. No one has come to take them away yet. I don't dare to risk them at this time." If you want to go to someone else's house, you have to stay here first. It would be a good thing if someone comes."

Yes, this time the plague is so severe that everyone is staying behind closed doors. No one knows how many regular customers will be able to come with smiling faces and how many guests will be able to come when we open our doors for business again when we breathe a sigh of relief... …

The epidemic kills people... Even though they entered the house, several people did not take off their headscarves, for their own sake and for the sake of others.

After the Sixth Lady made the tea and brought it to them, they sat down together. She looked at Fu Rong and Zhu Zhiyu who were sitting upright, and asked: "Are the two girls also living in Juai Village now? Yuan Laoke fine?"

"Yes, everything is fine with him. He also ate the glutinous rice balls you asked me to bring that day, and told us that he was very concerned about the people of Qusha County."

The Sixth Lady smiled and said, "It's all good, Mr. Yuan. I just hope that Mr. Yuan will be able to come out of seclusion and come to my store. Then I will make something else for him."

Then he said: "The situation in this county is so serious now. It would be better for the two girls to stay in Juai Village. After all, it is a mountain. No one usually goes up there, so they are not afraid of anything around them."

Rong Yi smiled, thinking that she had just said that she was still waiting for guests here, so she couldn't help but said to her: "You must have a place to store corn sugar packages here. It's better to put the sugar away early." It's better to go home, it's always uneasy to stay here alone."

"Yeah, wait five more days, wait five more days, and I'll go home."

Rong Yi felt reassured and asked her again: "You have been guarding the shop alone these past few days, have you heard anything going on outside?"

The Sixth Lady thought she was asking questions for Mr. Yuan, and immediately said: "It's true. The night before yesterday, I fell asleep and became confused. I always felt that the door outside was not locked, so I ran out to unlock it. No. When I heard the sound of the watch, I heard some footsteps instead, and the footsteps didn't sound like soldiers sent out by the government to patrol."

A boss lady like her who does business on the street will have a certain sensitivity to the footsteps of all kinds of people after listening to them for a long time. Naturally, she can tell clearly whether the irrelevant people outside are still here to patrol. people.

"Listening to the sound, it sounded like I was going to do something urgent. I am a brave person, so I sat at the door and listened for a while. There was also a sound last night, but it came earlier than the night before yesterday. I don't know who it was. It was so late at night. What are you doing outside?"

Rong Yi frowned slightly: "You heard these sounds. Could it be that no one who came out to patrol noticed it?"

"Probably...no. The county magistrate is very strict in his rule. The officers and soldiers on patrol change every shift. There will be no mistakes. But I didn't hear anything. Isn't it a big deal?"

"But didn't I hear that the government issued a death order and no one was allowed to walk around without permission?"

Now Liu Niang couldn't explain. She felt that there was something wrong with those footsteps, but after all, she was a commoner woman, so she couldn't explain it and would not think in those horrible directions.

He just said: "The order is like this, could it be someone sent by the government to do something?"

Rong Yi was silent for a moment, thinking that it was not easy for her to provide this clue. If she asked her about this matter, she wouldn't be able to find out the reason, so she wouldn't ask her.
