Everyone has agreed. Now the family is well off, but a good meal is nothing to them.

The family was pulled up in the middle of the night to run around, and now everyone couldn't stand it any longer. Mrs. Ji asked everyone to go back to their rooms to sleep, while she went to the kitchen to heat up some rice so that she could have something to eat when she woke up later.

abdomen.

It was already mid-afternoon when a group of people woke up to eat after having slept well. They didn't sleep well at night, and they were not energetic during the day.

Therefore, Mrs. Ji didn't let anyone go over to supervise the work. Today, Ji Miaomiao didn't buy meat because Ji Miaomiao was going to see a doctor, and she didn't bring in new food. The hard laborers started complaining.

What's going on with the Ji family this time? I used to see some minced meat star seeds every day, and I was just looking forward to the meat. Today, it's better, no meat has been sent, no food has been sent, and the rice has become thin.

Everyone does strenuous work, and they need to be full to have enough strength. During the busy farming season, they have to eat hard food, not to mention building a house?

There is a man in the house building team named Wang Goudan. This man has always been a gangster, but he is also a tall and powerful person, and he is quite a bit of a ruffian.

He worked at Ji's house for about ten days. He did not do much hard work. He only engaged in cheating and cheating, and snatched meat with quick eyes and hands at every meal.

He just came here to eat and drink and earn money. When he saw that he was not good at eating and drinking, of course he was the first to give up.

He immediately scolded the women who were working, but the one who cooked was Aunt Zhang in the village. She was the most talkative and aggressive woman in the village, and few women in the village dared to provoke her.

This time she was able to come here to cook, and she had snatched the job from many women who were eyeing her.

This is a fat job! Not only does she get twenty cents a day, but she can also cook a small stove for herself. Since she came here to cook, her grandchildren have been well fed.

Seeing that there was no meat for just one day, this king Goudan protested loudly.

She immediately raised her eyebrows and scolded Wang Goudan. She thought to herself that her master did not invite her here just to report something. She wanted to fully demonstrate her role!

So I suppressed the matter and didn't tell Ji's family. Instead, I suppressed it myself.

Wang Goudan is not afraid of anything, but his fighting ability is still a bit weak when facing this kind of old lady, so he can barely suppress it.

Afterwards, Aunt Zhang didn't complain, and she kept humming the foreign language for a long time.

Ji Liangqing was a careful person. When Ji Miaomiao fell ill, he forgot to buy meat and hurried to the county seat early the next morning.

But when I arrived at the meat stall, I was dumbfounded. Butcher Wang’s meat stall was not open at all!

Normally he would have opened the door by this time!

There was no way, maybe there was something going on at home, so Ji Liangqing could only admit that he was unlucky and thought about going to other meat stalls.

After all, he often buys here, and Butcher Wang gives him a huge discount. If he goes to buy elsewhere temporarily, the discount won't be that big.

But he turned around and found that all the meat stalls in the county were closed.

This time Ji Liangqing didn't understand. He saw an aunt in the grocery store nearby eating melon seeds and chatting with others. He had a sweet mouth and was good at talking. He went up and asked a few words, and then he came up with something.

It turned out that the pork farm was hit by an epidemic, and almost half of the pigs were lost. The rest had to be kept close to the big restaurant and above. The meat stalls run by these small butchers could not open for the time being.

Hearing the news, Ji Liangqing was worried, how could a pig that was so good get some diseases?

I don’t know if this disease is contagious to humans?

When he thought of this possibility, he was so frightened that he quickly bought a few handfuls of mugwort from the grocer's shop and said he would burn it and cook it for his family to fumigate and wash.

The grocer's wife didn't expect that this young man would buy things from her, so the smile on her lips became even deeper. She also told him how to make mugwort to have better functions.

Ji Liangqing wrote them down one by one and left them alone this time when he entered the city.

Anyway, there is no shortage of meat at home for the time being. I still have a lot of chicken and duck meat that my daughter sent over before, which I have marinated at home.

At most, house repair workers cannot eat meat, but they work elsewhere and have no meat to eat. There is nothing they can do if they don't have meat for a few days. There is really no way to sell it.

After returning home, Ji Liangqing was not idle and told his family everything he had seen and heard in the city.

The rest of the Ji family thought it was nothing, but Mrs. Ji looked heavy and pondered for a long time and said:

"It's unclear whether this disease can be transmitted from person to person. From now on, we are not allowed to leave Niutou Village, especially the children."

Having said this, Mrs. Ji's eyes flashed and she cast a warning look at the most skinny Shi Jia.

Shi Jia agreed honestly. Facing his strict grandma, he did not dare to make any mistakes.

"Mom, how can it be so serious?" Boss Ji disagreed, "How common is it for livestock to get sick? This is too much of a fuss."

Their family has business dealings with Huajian Restaurant, and they go into the city so frequently that it would be troublesome if they were restricted from entering the city for a short period of time.

Mrs. Ji took a deep look at her eldest son and said, "Boss, I can't explain these things clearly. This epidemic is the most elusive."

She has lived for a long time and has experienced many things. Among them, the most impressive one, besides the experience of escaping with her parents when she was a child, was the epidemic that followed her escape.

That epidemic was a nightmare, turning the most familiar and prosperous county into a hell on earth. The epidemic was so violent that both animals and people suffered greatly.

Many people who survived the escape died from the disease.

Including her uncles and aunts.

Later, it took so many imperial doctors sent by the imperial court and so many doctors with excellent medical skills from the people who worked for countless days and nights to finally control the nightmare.

She thought of this and looked at the large family in front of her.

Everyone went through that escape, and no one was left there. This was the thing she was most proud of.

I also hope that this time she is overthinking it.

Mrs. Ji's heavy-faced reaction gave everyone a big psychological impact, and Mrs. Ji, who had just spoken in a relaxed tone, fell silent.

After a while, Mrs. Ji looked at Ji Liangqing and said:

"The third brother is a good one. He also knows how to buy mugwort. You will divide it into two parts later. The other brothers will take one part and smoke it in every corner of the house. The other part will be used to boil water. Everyone will use it to boil water."

Wipe it to remove some bad luck."

The three brothers responded. Mrs. Ji nodded when she saw this, looked at Ji Miaomiao who was not as lively as before after taking the medicine, and said distressedly:

"Smoke the room in our west wing more. Miao Yatou has suffered a lot now and her resistance is very weak. Don't get sick again."

Everyone agreed again.

Then they got busy. Ji Laoji and Ji Laoer ordered some mugwort and smoked the corners. Sister-in-law Ji and Sister-in-law Ji took the mugwort to boil water. As for Ye Qiuyun, he held his daughter to accompany him.

Mrs. Ji.

"Although I was still young at that time, I still remember how terrible the disease was. I hope it's all just my overthinking..."

Mrs. Ji looked at the lovely granddaughter in Ye Qiuyun's arms and murmured.
