Chapter 189
Xiao Linze walked to the door of the house, looked at the gloomy sky outside, and said: "In the eyes of the family, the family's prosperity and interests are the most important."

Lin Qingyue suddenly felt a chill: "Those aristocratic families are also supported by the people. They eat rice from the people and are worshiped by the people. They should do things for the people..."

Speaking of Lin Qingyue's voice became lower and lower, yes, she didn't do it either, she was enshrined by the people of Xizhou, but she was unwilling to come and kiss her.

But she couldn't help but say some words.

"Then what's the use of such an aristocratic family?"

After speaking, she walked to Xiao Linze's side, and looked at the dark sky together with him.

Xiao Linze didn't answer Lin Qingyue's words, but just put his arms around her shoulders, trying to comfort her.

After a long time, Lin Qingyue asked again: "Tell me, did Xiao Xuan get involved?"

"No." Xiao Linze's words were not to appease Lin Qingyue, but he was sure that Xiao Yu hadn't the courage, let alone be so stupid, "Even if he had such an idea, the old lady would not give him this chance. "

Speaking of Mrs. Xiao, Lin Qingyue finally looked better, and she nodded with a smile: "Yes, my aunt is really the wisest person in the Lin family."

Xiao Linze became more and more busy in the days to come, and sometimes he stayed outside for two or three days and couldn't come back.

Lin Qingyue was very worried about him, but she promised him that he would not run around, and in order to save him from worrying about the future, she had been waiting in the Zizhou government office.

It's just that today is very unusual. Everyone in the government office is in a hurry. There are more and more people spreading lime everywhere in the government office, and they are spreading lime more frequently. There is also a maid sent by Xiao Linze to serve her , is also worried.

When the little maid broke another teacup and knelt down to admit her mistake, she finally asked: "Lichi, what happened to you today?"

"Just... just..."

Before Xiao Linze sent the lychees to Lin Qingyue, he had specially instructed her to tell her less about outside affairs with Lin Qingyue, especially bad things, let alone bring them in front of her, but she really didn't have a heart In the end, there is no place for a heart.

Lin Qingyue saw Li Zhi's concealment, and knew that things outside would be bad, and she was even more afraid that something would happen to Xiao Linze, so she immediately became anxious, and said sharply: "Say!"

Li Zhi trembled in fright, and immediately knelt down on the ground and explained everything.

"Yes... it's Mingchen Street... two people were also found to have the plague..."

Mingchen Street is the street where the government office goes out, and there is nothing more frightening than Lizhi. Every household on Mingchen Street has the plague, which shows that the epidemic is serious again.

"Girl, you said...we...would we also...would all the people in Zizhou City..."

Lin Qingyue got up and helped Lizhi up.

"How do adults do it?"

"My lord..." Li Zhi drooped her eyes and thought for a while, then replied timidly, "My lord ordered their whole family to be circled up, and no one is allowed to get close."

"Isn't that enough? Aren't they all circled up? What are you afraid of?" Lin Qingyue reached out and stroked Lizhi's shoulder, comforting her, "It's okay, everything will pass."

"But...but when the plague comes out...many people will...will die..."

Lizhi was also born in a poor family. When she was a child, her family escaped because of the plague in their hometown. Thinking about the scene at that time, she was terrified. The wailing kept coming to her ears, and there were rotting corpses everywhere...

She couldn't help shivering when she thought of those things in the past, it was terrible.

Lin Qingyue saw Li Zhi's fear, reached out to hold her hand, and said with a smile, "Do you trust Lord Xiao?"

"Believe it." Xiao Linze is a hero in the eyes of the people in Zizhou, as well as in the eyes of Lizhi. She answered this sentence without hesitation, but after she finished her answer, the feeling of fear prevailed again, "But That's the plague..."

"Don't worry, with Master Xiao here, the epidemic will definitely be under control." Lin Qingyue stuffed a piece of pastry into Lizhi's hand, "Instead of worrying here, you should think about what to eat tonight."

Even though she said so, she was still extremely worried. She knew that the epidemic was getting serious again. It should be said that after a while, the epidemic would reach its peak. At that time, more people would die, and people would be panicked. But There is no way, the plague is like this, once it spreads, it cannot be completely suppressed within a year or so.

What they have to do is to be patient. When things are not clear, even if they are watching a person die, they have to be patient, and they have to guide people to face it more actively. Only in this way can there be hope. Brother Yu also said, If the patient has a good mentality, it is possible to live longer.

Seeing Lin Qingyue's smiling face, Li Zhi gradually calmed down, nodded her head and agreed, but she had no intention of leaving, as if she was still hesitating.

Lin Qingyue came back to her senses just in time to see this scene, and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Girl, slave... slave..." Li Zhi said hesitantly, "Li Zhi wants to go back and visit her parents..."

Lin Qingyue thought it was funny, she was not a harsh master, and since there were people cooking in the government office, it would be fine if the lychees were gone for a day or two, why did she still feel so panic when it was brought up?
"But...but will the maidservant be unable to come back after going out? The maidservant's home is in the west of the city, near the shed that Dr. Gong and the others built."

Gong Meng and the others set up a shed in the west of the city, and every day, the officers and soldiers would order people to come to the shed in an orderly manner to check their physical condition according to the registered booklets, so as to prevent someone from being infected with the plague and not discovering it in time. Blockbusters need people in quarantine.

Since Lizhi's home is over there, there shouldn't be much danger, but she is worried...

"I'll go with you." Lin Qingyue said.

Li Zhi said so many things and Lin Qingyue understood her thoughts. She was afraid of the plague, worried about losing this job, and really couldn't let go of her family.

Anyway, if she stays like this, she is still staying, and she really doesn't want to sit still, she wants to go outside the house to do her own little effort, since Li Zhi is afraid, she will accompany her for a while, and then look outside The situation is also a very good choice.

Lychee is still hesitating.

"Will my lord..."

"Will not."

Lin Qingyue answered crisply, but she knew he would be angry, so she said that she really couldn't bear Lizhi to go back alone, which was a good excuse.

What's more, she is not really just a woman who needs Xiao Linze's protection, she also has things she wants to do, and she doesn't want him to work so hard.

Although maybe her help is just a drop in the bucket, but a single spark can start a prairie fire.

As soon as the two agreed, Lin Qingyue urged Li Zhi to put on the face scarf with her, and she put on the long gauze hat, and they left the house together.

This is the first time Lin Qingyue has left the mansion since the outbreak of the plague. The bustling and busy days of the past are gone, only the dead silence. The withered and yellow leaves that can be seen everywhere on the streets indicate the desolation of the city.
