Hard work

Chapter 260 Typhoid Fever
The situation in the village is not good, so it is very simple to welcome the bride this time.Not many people were invited, and naturally there were not many door-to-door gifts.Naturally, there are not many people like Lan Huaer who come to the door to give gifts by themselves, and it can even be said that there are not many.And it wasn't anything expensive.

The family who greeted the relatives also knew what the current situation in the village was like. Now that they thought that their family did not arrange a banquet at all, they were afraid to accept gifts from everyone. How could they think that the gifts they received were not generous enough? .They have even started to have a headache thinking about how to return the gift.

However, we are all fellow villagers who have been with each other for decades. Now that we know that there are more people in their family, how can we ask for a gift in return?

As for the newly arrived bride, she didn't dislike the simplicity of this ceremony at all.

After all, life in Aozi Village is easier these days. In those villages outside, many people really can't afford to eat.The family in Aozi Village also saw that the bride's family was going to be in trouble, so they hurriedly married the bride, thinking that they should raise her in Aozi Village first.

It is already pretty good for the bride to be able to eat, so why would she care about that.

If you say that the people in this village are all honest people, and it is not their own marriage, but they also think it is a big event in the village, and there are quite a few people who come to congratulate them.It's just that not every family's situation is as good as the Zhao family's, and they may not be able to come up with any gifts.Thoughts are always delivered.

Apart from this happy event, Aru from Tiesheng's house next door has also entered a time when walking is inconvenient.Although it's not yet time to give birth, but the belly is getting bigger day by day.

Lan Hua'er and Aru are very close friends, and they probably know what's going on in Aru's house, so they will send fresh meat to them every now and then.But she also knew that Tiesheng and Aru would not be happy to ask for too much, so they didn't want to give too much, and they only gave it to one person each time, specifying that it was for Aru's health.

Now that Aru's body really needs nourishment, no matter how embarrassed Tie Sheng is, he has to accept this meat.This is impossible.After all, with his own ability, no matter how many times he ran up the back mountain, he might not be able to catch some meat back.

The upper part of the back mountain is not as lively as it was when the orchids went up. Listening to Zang Lang, the upper part can be described as "lifeless".It's not that the ecology on the mountain is still slowing down, it's just that there are too many people going up, and even the grass roots have been dug up, so there is no ecology to speak of.This seems to be the rhythm of turning the back mountain into a barren mountain.

But if you know it, what can you do?

Lan Hua'er naturally understands that things can't be done so badly, and the seeds and grass roots that will germinate in the next year can't be scraped off, otherwise it will take several years on the back mountain to really recover.

Even, if even the grass roots on the back mountain have been dug clean, there will be another torrential rain like this - there is no need for a torrential rain, just a random rain, it will also cause landslides.At that time, Aozi Village will be so close to the back mountain, whether it will survive as before, but no one can say for sure.

But she just knew what to do.With so many victims going to the back of the mountain, so many people can't even eat the current meal, how can she have any reason to tell those people not to dig up the grass roots.

The only thing that makes people feel happy is that more and more victims have been digging up the food near Aozi Village in the back mountain, so more and more people started to go to the town.

None of the first batch of people who went to the town have returned. Although this situation is very disturbing, it at least shows that those people did not encounter any bad things on the road and had to return. This road to the town , at least it should be able to get through.

Seeing that the number of victims wandering outside the village decreased one by one, the people in Aozi Village couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Gradually, some people began to work in the fields again.Although it is not possible to sow seeds yet, they always hope that one day these victims will be gone, and they will be able to plant a batch of vegetables before the arrival of autumn, so as to reduce the pressure at home.

The upper part of the back mountain was really hollowed out, and even Zang Lang said that he had to go further inside to find his prey.

Because the back was empty, there were fewer ferocious beasts that came to the village with them.Presumably no beast of prey would take pleasure in traversing such a barren land, which was an unexpected bonus.Of course, it is also possible that the beasts on the back mountain became less and less because of hunting each other.

The ferocious beasts stopped making trouble in the village, and Lan Hua'er's worries about Lei Lei eased.She had been worried that Lei Lei would encounter any danger living alone in the thatched hut at the back—this danger was obviously unlikely to come from the victims. Something worth looting—she was only worried that if some beast came down from the back mountain and Lei Lei lived alone, he would be dragged away right away.

Now even this worry was eliminated, and Lan Hua'er simply dismissed the matter of taking Lei Lei to Zhao's house.

There is no way, Lei Lei is really reluctant to talk to others.Now in the entire Zhao family, the only one who can make Lei Lei speak is the dog egg of a similar age.Changwu and Langzhong Yang didn't know whether it was because of curiosity or some other reason, they went to the back to see Lei Lei, but in the end, just like Lan Huaer, they couldn't get a word.

"Isn't that child dumb?" Yang Langzhong even doubted, "Maybe it's not born, but he just became speechless after some stimulation. I remember seeing this in medical books. case. If this is the case, this child can be regarded as a patient."

When talking about patients, Yang Langzhong always acted like a young man.However, Goudan quickly dispelled his idea.

"It's not dumb, I've heard him speak." When Goudan said this, he was a little complacent that would not appear on weekdays, "The voice is crunchy, and it's nice. It's just that he doesn't like to talk. Ah, yo, I don’t know what he is afraid of. I told him that when I was young, I lived alone at home, and it’s not like he is now.”

"Is this still only talking to you?" Changwu also rarely participated in this topic, "Did you ever encounter something that made you wary of older people, so you only talk to children?"

When Lan Hua'er was listening, she thought that Changwu would bring the topic to a field he was familiar with.Just like Yang Langzhong would doubt whether Lei Lei had hysteria, Lan Huaer wondered whether Chang Wu would suspect that Lei Lei had offended evil spirits and got into trouble with some kind of goblin, unexpectedly, he didn't think about that at all, saying If it came out, it would make sense.

But Lan Hua'er felt that what Chang Wu said made sense, but Goudan was not happy about it.He still respected Changwu, after all, he was called Mr., but he still couldn't help pouting:
"Who are you talking about? Who are you talking about?"

But in this way, there is really no other way but to let Goudan go to the back more and talk to Lei Lei more.

If we were free in the old days, everyone would still be in the mood to care about such an autistic little kid.Unfortunately, after a happy event was held in the village, a particularly severe typhoid fever began to spread.This typhoid fever is said to be caused by evil heat entering the body, much more severe than the typhoid fever of previous years. The whole room is busy with the orchids. How can there be so much thought to pay attention to Lei Lei.

When it comes to typhoid fever, Lan Hua'er probably understands that it's the common cold.It's just because too many people died this year, no matter how well Aozi Village handles it, it's still a burial after all, and other villages may not handle it so well, and the virus will follow with the wind.

Coupled with the fact that everyone didn't eat well this year, and their physique became weaker, it seemed that the cold virus was particularly violent.

In just a few days, more than half of the entire village has fallen ill.Those who are not sick are basically people with sufficient food at home. If they eat enough, their resistance will follow, and they will not get sick so easily.

But it's not a solution to be sick all the time.There are many sick people in the village, and they are still contagious to some extent.Yang Langzhong is so busy that he hardly has time to close his eyes every day, and he is dragged away from family to family by patients.If he hadn't asked Lan Huaer to prepare some medicine in advance and drink it first, maybe even the doctor himself would have fallen ill.

This is not modern times, there is no ready-made flu vaccine, no antibiotics or anything, and typhoid is a deadly disease.Lan Huaer saw that Tiandi was busy cooking medicine for everyone in the room according to Yang Langzhong's request, and her feet didn't touch the ground.

That's right, it's boiled medicine, not decocted medicine.I used the big soup pot at home to cook a big pot of medicine, and I was cooking it day and night.It's not that the other family can't cook this medicine, but there are not many medicines, and Yang Langzhong didn't have time to explain, so he simply let Lan Huaer do it for him.Although this is busy, it is not heavy work, but it is nothing.

Zang Lang, Yan Dalang and Lan Du were sent by Yang Langzhong to the back mountain to dig herbs.Only the three of them dared to go to the mountains behind at this time.

Yan Dalang once told Lan Huaer that he met someone from the Red King on the back mountain, and it seemed that the people in the cottage were also sick.He also taught Yang Langzhong's prescription to the group on the back mountain.

After hearing this, Lan Hua'er always felt a little dazed, but she could only agree first.

Everyone was busy now, so she didn't have the time to think about what happened to the cottage on the back mountain.
