Chapter 245
As soon as Mama Zhao opened her mouth, Bi Shui and Ah Xiang thought that there might be some unclean things on the quilt she brought, and their faces froze.

Especially Ah Xiang, she just came back from the village not long ago, she thought carefully, Zhao Ma came back much faster than her way.He also called two people back, and the three of them hugged two quilts, so the calculation was much faster.

How is this possible?Although Ah Xiang didn't feel how fast she was walking, at least she was faster than Zhao Ma, who was twenty years older than her.

Bi Shui gathered herself together, acted according to the plan, and greeted the door, but she did not open the door. She said in an unsteady voice: "Mother Zhao, the fourth girl is not well, her legs are fine, but she has a fever and a rash. I don't know if I have some other disease."

"This..." Zhao's mother paused for a moment, and quickly became anxious, "Then why don't you open the door? Fourth girl, you ask Bishui to open the door. The servant is old and sees you a lot. The servant will go in and show you."

"Mother Zhao..." Xu Jiatong pretended to call weakly, and what came out was not the sound of talking, but the sound of vomiting.

Ah Xiang panicked: "Sister Bishui, what should I do?" She said something in a low voice, as if she was looking for something like a cloth towel, and suddenly called out, "I got it on you, wipe it quickly, just in case …If you get it on your body, you will also get it.”

"No, we were all smoked with mugwort leaves just now, how could we get infected so easily?" Bi Shui didn't seem to believe it.

After a while, Bi Shui opened the door a little, and threw out two cloth towels that were wet and smelled a little fishy, ​​and it was impossible to tell what was stained on them.

These two cloth towels were picked up from the pond. They fell out of the carriage before, got wet with water and pond mud, and dried again. They had a strange smell.After Xu Jiatong made up his mind, Bi Shui used clean water to remove the mud on it, and spit on it a few times, making it sticky.

Before Mother Zhao and the two people dressed as village women could react, the door closed again, and they only saw the two wet cloth towels coming towards them.In a daze, the three quickly stepped back a few steps, and the two cloth towels landed in front of their toes with two "slaps".

The three immediately covered their mouths and noses, but they still smelled something, like... stinky...

In fact, none of the three of them had ever actually seen a person suffering from the plague. They only knew that the disease usually caused fever, vomiting, and night sweats at the beginning, and then became weak and unconscious, and the attack was rapid.Just now when they heard Xu Jiatong's voice was weak, they couldn't help throwing up as soon as they spoke, and they didn't hear the words after that, and they already felt in their hearts that they couldn't tell what the disease was.

"Don't panic, it's definitely not an epidemic." Zhao Ma just panicked for a moment, patted her heart, and calmed down.

"Try her again." Xu Jiatong's voice was so low that only Bi Shui and Ah Xiang could hear it.

Bi Shui said again: "What's more, Cheng Ma woke up just now and couldn't find you, so she probably got dizzy and crawled into the wing opposite you. She couldn't stand still, she was pinched by the door and fell Yes. The fourth girl was kind enough to let me help her into the main room. After a while, she didn't wake up again, and the girl has become like this. I don't know if there is something unclean in that room. thing."

"Cheng's mother is awake?" Zhao's mother was taken aback, and turned back to the wing room where she had stayed. Sure enough, she didn't see Cheng's mother, so she turned back immediately, "This one who killed a thousand swords, he is about to die, why don't you go there?" In the tidied up house, it’s broken now, maybe it’s really brought the sickness into the girl’s house.”

The three people who were awake in the room understood that the wing room was really weird. Ah Xiang couldn't bear it, and couldn't help but said, "Is that the room where Madam Zhao let the girl go in to rest? It's a good thing they didn't go in, otherwise I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble." It's getting worse."

"What are you talking about, and how do I know that an empty wing room can still have the disease." Zhao Mama's voice was much colder, and there was a hint of indifference, as if the matter had been settled .

Ah Xiang didn't dare to slip up again, lay down on the bed and started crying, yelling incessantly: "Girl, poor girl, this servant has only been with you for a few days, and you have suffered from such a disease."

"Cry, cry, you know how to cry." Bi Shui said to her, while crying herself.

Zhao's mother was still worried, and said to Aunt Zhang behind her, "Go in and have a look, if you have rashes or night sweats, come out and tell me."

"I'm going? I haven't seen anyone with the disease, so I'm not sure." Aunt Zhang yelled.

"I haven't seen it before, I can't see it, I can't see it." Aunt Wang who was standing behind also hurriedly pushed back, and even stepped back.

"Useless stuff." Zhao Ma stomped her feet, but went forward by herself, "Bishui, you open the door, I'll go in and have a look."

"No, it's windy outside, and the girl has a rash, so she can't blow the air." Bi Shui hesitated for a moment, then said suddenly, "How about I open the window a little, so you can see the rash on the back of the girl's hands?"

Zhao's mother only knew that a few things in that wing room were dumped from a family that had just caught the disease and died not long ago, but she didn't know how serious the disease was.

When Lin told her that day, she said it was nothing serious, it would only make her feel tired, and she would have to rely on medicine to remind her to get infected.But who knows the truth of this statement?

Lin didn't care about people like her. In order to get things done, and to prevent her from acting timidly, she might say that the disease was milder, so that she would not have any scruples.

When she got infected, Mrs. Lin wouldn't even frown a little more, not to mention that she died of the disease, but died of the disease.

Thinking about it this way, Mother Zhao didn't dare to go in rashly. She was not afraid of ten thousand in everything, but just in case. This was her life.Although she is loyal to the Lin family, it is because of the benefits. If you get the benefits, you will die to enjoy them. What's the use of getting the benefits?

Look at the window, if there is a rash, it is probably almost the same.So she went to the porch in front of the window and knocked on the window twice.

Sure enough, Bishui went over to open the window, Zhao Ma hurriedly looked over, and saw a dozen large and small, uneven red bumps on the back of Xu Jiatong's hands, and the surrounding white skin was also red, extending all the way to the The area on the arm that is covered by the sleeve of a garment.That place was also red, and it was conceivable that rashes had also crawled on his body.

"Pa" the window was closed forcefully, and Bi Shui choked and said, "Did you see it? The girl also has red rashes all over her body. There were only a few rashes at first, but now it's like this."

"Have it on me too?" Mother Zhao wanted to make sure again, "Let me see."

"How can this be done? The girl's body can be seen by anyone? What's more, once the clothes are removed, it will be windy again, and it will be even heavier. I'm afraid..." Bi Shui cried a few times, and suddenly seemed like It's like a compromise, "Why don't you come in and take a look, just open the door, I think it's all right."

After entering, the distance is close, so naturally there is no need to spread the clothes and the autumn cloak covering the body too far. This makes sense, but at this time, Zhao Ma is afraid to go in.

Aunt Zhang tugged at Zhao Ma's sleeve from behind: "I think the smoked medicine will be fine, you go in, if you get infected too, won't you be able to come out?"

Zhao Ma looked at Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang behind her. She was not familiar with these two people, but she looked timid and fearful. Can really lock her up too.

"Smoke medicine." Zhao Ma said, covering her mouth and nose with a cloth towel, followed them to push the herbs into the porch, and lit them up. "Bishui, tell Miss Si that this is the medicine used by the locals." Herbal medicine for curing diseases. Where did the disease come from, it will be fine after fumigation."

"Cover your mouth and nose with a wet veil." Xu Jiatong ordered in a low voice.

"Will this herb really catch the disease if it is smoked?" Bi Shui was very worried.

"When it comes to pharmacology, at most it can only look like you have contracted the disease, but you can't really contract it. However, this drug should aggravate the symptoms of people who are already infected. You don't need to crawl, and if you don't inhale much, you will be fine. You put some burnt mugwort ashes in the handkerchief to get rid of the smell." Xu Jiatong had heard about this kind of herbal medicine from the old man in the alley before, and seeing Zhao Mama and the others act like this, it must be the same.

"Girl, servant girl is going out now?" Bi Shui asked softly, got affirmation, immediately went to open the door, before the people outside had locked the door, she walked out sideways.

The moment Bi Shui went out, Ah Xiang immediately locked the door, and then moved the chest of drawers in the corner to block the door.

"Why did you come out? Instead of serving the girl inside, you still come out to pass on the disease to us?" Mother Zhao was startled, and immediately jumped and screamed to push Bi Shui back.

Bi Shui couldn't let her push her, especially since she made up her mind, how to bump away people outside, how to run down the steps and then out of the door, she had thought about it several times when she was in the room, and she had thought about various situations. Transparent.

But Zhao's mother was unprepared, she never thought that the person who was crying one moment before would run out the next.

"Fourth Miss, I'm going to ask the doctor, but I still won't let go." Bi Shui held a teacup in his hand, he pushed anyone he saw, smashed anyone he touched, and rushed down the stone steps in a few steps.

"Stop her quickly, hurry up." Mama Zhao shouted loudly, she was not at all afraid of attracting the masked people who might be hiding around.

Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang immediately went to stop her, but Bi Shui shouted at this moment: "This is the fourth girl's vomit of filth, I'll show it to the doctor, if you dare to stop me, I'll splash you in the face."

There was a very conspicuous gap in the teacup, and they saw something sticky flowing inside. They didn't know that the sticky thing inside was pastry melted with water. When Bi Shui said this, they took it seriously. , thought it was Xu Jiatong's vomit.

If this thing is spilled, the people who are splashed will most likely be infected with the disease!

Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang subconsciously moved faster than mice, and Bi Shui took advantage of this gap to rush far away with a few strides.This village is not big, she rushed to the door in a few steps, and was about to go out in two steps.

"If she runs out, none of you will be able to survive, copy her, and she will be the result." Zhao Ma shouted coldly, picked up the wooden stick in the corner and chased her out.

Aunt Zhang and Aunt Wang watched her run out, not daring to lag behind, picked up their sticks and chased after her, thinking while chasing, if they hit her with a stick from behind, it shouldn't be splashed on them...
