Chapter 319 Excuses

Dr. Xie said that these dozen people with food poisoning had to take medicine for three days, and after three days they were basically fine.

However, even if they recover in three days, they will not be able to do the work if their bodies are not nourished for several months, let alone the heavy lifting of rivers.

Zhang Tianfeng heard that he only needed to take medicine for three days to recover, and he was so excited that he trembled all over.

"It's okay if you can't work, but it's okay as long as people are fine." Zhang Tianfeng wiped away tears, "I'll go talk to my brother and the others and make them happy too."

Having said that, how can I be happy?

The river channel has not been cleared yet, and the section of the river channel allocated to Zhangpu Village has been running much slower than other places due to the accidents in the past two days.

In the spring of March, everything revives and vegetables and beans can be planted.

Countryside people, who only get half a year's worth of melons and vegetables, just point out that the melons, vegetables and beans planted in the spring can fill their stomachs.

Originally, there were only a few days left before the river channel should be cleaned up and we could go back to planting vegetables and beans and wait for the wheat harvest and rice transplanting around the Dragon Boat Festival.

But now, people are sick, and they don’t know how much the medicine will cost, when they will be able to recover, and the river channels that have not been cleaned up may be delayed.

Lu Xiangge solemnly said again, "That yamen servant named Xiao is not a good person. You must stay away from such a person to prevent lightning from striking you."

"That's probably what happened." After Dongzhi finished speaking, he smiled sheepishly, "I'll go back to the river embankment first. If you go back to Jiangjiaba, tell my parents that there have been a lot of things going on at the river embankment recently, so I'll wait for the Dragon Boat Festival before going back.

"

Hearing that Lu Sheige paid for the medicine, Zhang Tianfeng thanked him profusely.

"That won't work. It's already noon now. We just happen to go to the second sister's place for dinner together. After dinner, Chunhua will see you off."

He just used this excuse to investigate the mildew of rice and grain in the river.

He couldn't stand Xiao Yamen's behavior at first, so he didn't say much. He just nodded silently to show that he understood.

"The water is very deep here." Lu Sheige lowered his voice, "I know this, so you don't have to worry about it."

Dongzhi didn't have the nerve to say that she was worried, so she chased the carriage all the way.

"No, I'll go to the river embankment and have something to eat."

Lu Sheige didn't expect to see the winter solstice at Xie's pharmacy.

"No, no need to eat."

All this, like countless mountains, weighs heavily on the hearts of the people in Zhangpu Village.

There are bad people and good people in this world. In the end, there must be far more good people than bad people, so that more people can have hope of living.

Since we are at Xie's Pharmacy, we naturally have to take Dr. Xie with us when we eat.

"I'm serious."

This is what it means to be struck by lightning!

Lu Xiangge poured a cup of tea for Dongzhi with his own hands, "Dongzhi, you have a drink of water first, and then I'll invite you to the second sister's shop for dinner."

"Why are you here?"

He now vaguely understood that this person might not be related to the Zhang family as he said.

"No."

Lu Sheige had another conversation with Dongzhi, explaining in detail the relationship between Xiao Dayong and Xian Wei, as well as Xiao Dayong's daily behavior.

"Come here, sit down and rest your feet."

I have been at the county government office for a while during the winter solstice, so I can certainly see black and white very clearly.

Lu Sheige glanced at Zhang Tianfeng who was thoughtful and said nothing. If she didn't find someone to solve this matter, the people of Zhangpu Village would definitely suffer a big loss.

No matter what, Zhang Tianfeng was grateful to the young master named Lu and the shopkeeper of Xie's pharmacy.

Dongzhi felt that what Lu Xiaosi said was reasonable. They were friends who grew up together, and he still believed in Lu Xiaosi's character.

"thunder!"

Dongzhi drank two glasses of water in one breath, then wiped the water stains on his mouth and said, "I saw Xiao Dayong outside. His legs were broken, and he came to inquire about the river picker. Is this something causing trouble?"

It’s huge.”

When something happens, it's not like the higher authorities can't suppress it.

Seeing that Dong Zhi was in a hurry to leave, Lu Xiangge said hurriedly: "Dong Zhi, don't rush away yet. I'll ask Chun Hua to take you to the river embankment after dinner."

Now that he has come out, Xiao Dayong has disappeared again!

However, Winter Solstice didn't think much about it. He just thought that Xiao Yamen knew that everyone in Zhangpu Village was temporarily fine at Xie's Pharmacy, and that he had injured his leg and was inconvenient to stand for a long time before going back.

He didn't know what Xiao Si was doing now. He only knew that if he talked more and explained clearly what he knew, Xiao Si would be able to know what he was doing and make fewer mistakes.

Dongzhi scratched his head inexplicably: "Xiao Dayong is really strange."

It is good that the family is prosperous. It is harder to go out early and come back late, so the work of the people who come to do the corvee work is done. The population is small and the labor force is small. They wait for these young and strong people to go back to plow and cultivate the land. If they don't go back, they will

Depending on the women and children at home, most of the land may not have time to grow melons, vegetables, beans, etc.

Lu Shege said calmly: "Since you think it's strange, stay away from him."

As for the future, not only will the drug cost have to be calculated by someone, but there will also be losses for the people of Zhangpu Village. The river will be delayed and river jumpers will have to be rehired to clear the silt. Someone will have to bear everything.

At that time, in order to be able to come into the backyard to inquire, I did not hesitate to fall out with Dr.

Winter Solstice was still wondering if Xiao Dayong was waiting outside. When he went out to look, Wan Zhao said that he had left early. As soon as he entered Xie's Pharmacy, Xiao Yamen hurried away with his cane.

It is very possible that this young master is the master of some noble family.

"good."

The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest thing.

However, she did not make any guarantee to Zhang Tianfeng and others at this time. She only asked Chunhua to pay for the medicine that a dozen river haulers needed in the past few days.

Lu Xiangge glanced at Dongzhi's dusty boots, and he understood to some extent that this childhood friend was worried about her, so he ran all the way from the river embankment to the county seat.

With that said, Lu Shege couldn't help but say something, and walked out with Dong Zhi in his hand.

Dong Zhi's mind turned around before he finally understood what Lu Xiangge meant.

"I...I just came up here to take a look. Anyway, it's okay."

Dong Zhi grinned happily and said, "I don't need anyone to see me off. I'm used to walking and my steps are very fast. It only takes half an hour at most to get from here to the other side of the river."

Logically speaking, Xiao Dayong wouldn't be so worried about running here even if his leg was broken.

Winter Solstice's face, bronzed by the sun, was slightly red: "He and I were just acquaintances. He looked down on me, a poor boy from the countryside, and I couldn't get along with him.

"

In fact, he rarely speaks ill of others in front of outsiders, but today he made an exception in front of Lu Xiaosi.

For people like Xiao Yamen, it is his business to give his hair-haired sister to a fifty-year-old man as a concubine. In fact, it has nothing to do with the Winter Solstice.

But Dongzhi just looks down on such a person and thinks there is something wrong with his character. Mr. County Wei has seven concubines in his family, and including Xiao Yamen's sister, there are eight concubines. Such a person is old and bad, how can Xiao Yamen do this?

I couldn't bear to push my sister into the fire pit.
