Famous doctor and virtuous woman

Chapter 72 The Lost Life 2
Only Si Zihan looked like he had nothing to do with himself, turned around blankly and strode away towards the gate of the palace, seeing the corners of the eyes of the officials behind him twitching.

Da Sikong glared at Lin Shangshu angrily: "Old stubborn!"

Lin Shangshu replied flatly: "Smelly nose!"

A group of officials suddenly felt that the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder was rolling. In order to avoid being slandered for no reason, they greeted carelessly and left quickly.

Prime Minister Li gloated and patted the two of them on the shoulders: "Congratulations to the two adults for taking on these two major errands. I wish you all the best of luck and success."

Hearing this, Da Sikong and Lin Shangshu looked at each other silently.

A sneer flashed in the eyes of the two at the same time, and they thought very tacitly, with such a good thing, how could they not drag this righteous Prime Minister Li into the water together?

As for Si Zihan, it's better not to offend him.

The poor, cheerful old prime minister didn't know that he was being tricked, and was still gloating because the two ministers took on a difficult job, grinning so hard that the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears.

……

On the gate of the general's mansion, Si Yun climbed onto the ladder again.

"I said, there are more and more people outside, and there will be more tomorrow." Si Yun couldn't help frowning. Not only did the number of people fleeing famine not decrease, but it actually increased. Shouldn't it be crushed?

Xiaobi counted with her fingers and said, "Miss, there is no Mid-Circle Festival yet."

Si Yun didn't look back, but looked outside the door and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xiaobi explained: "Miss, it's only July 26th (lunar calendar), these people will continue to increase, and they won't stabilize until after August [-]th."

"Ah?" Si Yun was startled, turned his head and asked. "Then when are they going to leave?"

Xiaobi thought for a while and said, "If it's farther away, I should leave on August [-]th. If it's closer, I'll stay until Lidong, or after Lidong."

Si Yun: "..."

Alas, poor human beings.

"Is it worth it for them to go through such a journey?" Si Yun looked at the three-year-old child outside the door, suddenly felt uncomfortable, and frowned deeply. "Thousands of mountains and rivers come here, and it may not be able to fill your stomach, why bother?"

Xiaobi's face was sad: "But if they stay in their hometown, they will definitely starve to death. When they come out to escape from famine and beg along the way, maybe they can still get a bite of food. It's better than nothing to eat if they are full and hungry. It’s not too strong, as long as we stick to it until next spring.”

Si Yun disagreed, and still frowned at the skinny child, who was lying there motionless at this moment, and hadn't moved for a long time.

Xiaobi's voice was slightly sad, and she continued on her own: "But if you get sick on the road, you will die, so it is often a group of people who go out to flee famine, but very few can go back, and those who starve to death along the way countless."

Get ill?

Si Yun frowned even deeper.

I don't know why, but I really look forward to that child moving, even if it's just to get up and sit for a second before lying down.

Also, what happened to his mother?

The child hasn't moved for such a long time, and she doesn't care about it. In broad daylight, she sleeps on her own. It's too irresponsible, okay?

The soil in the north is the kind that can’t be warmed even in the sun. If you let the child lie there all the time, isn’t it afraid that he will catch a cold and get sick?
