Chapter 1894 Something more serious than freezing to death

While talking, Lao Lu came to the door of the study.

Osmanthus hurriedly called him in, and ordered his servants to prepare hot tea.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the servant went down to close the door, Lao Lu knelt down towards Ling Chenyi, "Master, this subordinate is ineffective! Please punish me!"

"Old Lu, you..." Osmanthus fragrans was taken aback for a moment, she never thought that Lao Lu would kneel down immediately after entering the door, he did nothing wrong!

Ling Chenyi had a cold face and didn't say a word, but Osmanthus fragrans winked at Ling Chenyi from the side.

In the end, Ling Chenyi still felt sorry for his little lady's eyes, so he said, "Get up and talk!"

Old Lu was taken aback, and just about to raise his head to look at Ling Chenyi, but accidentally saw Osmanthus fragrans nodding in satisfaction, he understood it immediately, and couldn't help feeling a little moved, so he hurriedly stood up from the ground, but stood there with his head down, Like a sinner waiting to be judged.

The anger in Ling Chenyi's heart is really quite big, but thinking about the reason that Lao Lu said before, it is not unacceptable, and with Osmanthus fragrans watching from the side, it is really hard for him to make other plans, so he said: " Whether to punish or not, let’s not mention it now, let’s clarify the business first, and talk about the rest later.”

Old Lu responded, and hurriedly reported the information he had collected.

After hearing Lao Lu's report, the expressions of Osmanthus and Ling Chenyi became more and more icy.

This heavy snow had already killed seven or eight people.

"Seven or eight?" Osmanthus interjected, frowning.

Lao Lu also frowned, and his tone was a bit dignified, "There were seven of my subordinates when they left that side and rushed to Qinhe Village, but there was an old woman in her 70s. Tone, but the doctor has said that there are many bad luck, and I am afraid that I will not survive this afternoon, so my subordinates will say seven or eight."

From Lao Lu's narration, it is not difficult to find that the people who died due to the snow disaster in the newspaper this time were basically elderly people over 60 years old, except for one child who was under four years old.

From this point of view, the most severely affected by the snowstorm is the elderly.

"Have you received any other news?" Ling Chenyi didn't pay too much attention to the matter of the dead, but asked about other things.

Osmanthus fragrans couldn't help raising her eyebrows. In her opinion, could there be anything more serious than freezing to death?
But Lao Lu's expression made Guihua's heart tighten.

Looking at the face that was more severe than the person who was said to freeze to death just now, Osmanthus could not help asking in a low voice: "Is there anything more serious than freezing to death?"

Old Lu shook his head and nodded again, "The matter of freezing to death is naturally serious, but there is indeed one more thing. If it is not dealt with in time, the consequences may be many times more serious than freezing to death."

"What's the matter?" Osmanthus fragrans asked hurriedly, startled.

"Because of the sudden snowstorm and the fact that Zhong'an Mansion has not experienced such a big snowstorm for many years, the people do not have enough firewood to prepare for the winter. As of this morning, there have been no fewer than ten incidents in other villages because of firewood theft. The conflicts that have occurred."

After hearing this, the corners of Osmanthus fragrans couldn't help but twitch.

Is there a mistake, just a piece of firewood can actually cause conflicts?

It seems that for the common people, this winter is really too cold.

"Master, Princess Concubine, this situation must be stopped as soon as possible, otherwise if this continues, the death may not be as simple as being frozen to death, but because of a fight." Old Lu's tone was quite heavy, and With some urgency.
