Traveling through a doctor's daughter to marry a virtuous man

Chapter 709 Only Saved One 4
Li Qin, who hadn't recovered yet, lay on the ground in front of Li Caidie's grave, crying so dimly that she almost fainted.

Seeing the loess covering the last inch of the coffin, Lu Ziwan's mind went blank for a moment. She didn't regret not saving Li Caidie, but she felt sorry for her life. Lu Ziwan remembered what she said, a life of poverty Better than a life without love.

All she can do is to silently wish her that in the next life she can fulfill her wish, be an ordinary person, and marry a husband who can be favored without fighting.

Even if there is no need to worry about food and clothing or prosperity and wealth for a lifetime, and her husband doesn't hurt her, for a woman, it is more painful than everything in the world, how good an ordinary person is, just like her Lu Ziwan married Lian Guanlang.

Lian Guanlang has no power or power, but he can give her endless love, let her be the only woman in his life, and allow her to be a happy woman who can have endless love without fighting.

Due to limited conditions, Li Caidie's tomb is very simple, but for the people in the country, it is much better. All the clothes and jewelry she liked during her lifetime were buried with her.

Death is like a lamp being extinguished, and in a blink of an eye there is a handful of dust. People come and go in a hurry. Once they leave, the world will forget her existence sooner or later.

"Madam Lian, the county magistrate has come to the village to look for you!" The villagers chased up from the mountain, panting all the way, stopped in front of the tomb, and said condolences to the Bai family.

"Daughter-in-law, let me go down with you." Lian Guanlang hurriedly supported Lu Ziwan, and the Bai family had to burn paper and incense in front of the tomb, so they couldn't leave so soon.

In the village, the county magistrate dared to enter the village this time, sitting in the hall of the village chief's house, chatting and laughing with the village chief and his wife.

"I don't know what you want from us?" Lian Guanlang led Lu Ziwan in and asked.

"Big event!" The county magistrate hurriedly stood up from his chair, "Plague has also broken out in other villages, even madam, do you think it is possible to suppress all the plague before leaving here? Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. The people need you."

"That can't be done. It's luck that my daughter didn't catch the plague when she arrived here. How could she continue to be pushed into the plague village! I'm the first mother to disagree!" Zi Wan is not the only doctor, why do you want my Zi Wan to go?"

"Mrs. Lu, there are countless doctors in this world, but your daughter is the only one who can cure the plague. Not to mention doctors, even the imperial doctors in the capital are helpless against the plague!" Sweat said, "Mrs. Lian is a doctor, so she must be able to take care of herself, right?"

The county magistrate threw the words to Lu Ziwan, and He Chunmei looked at Lu Ziwan directly with a straight face. Lu Ziwan pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then said, "County magistrate, just follow what we said at the beginning. I will take the medicine from here. , Tell all the people verbatim the precautions I told you, the dead must be burned, and they cannot be buried directly in the ground."

"Alright." The county magistrate nodded, and he didn't have the mentality to persuade Lu Ziwan.

"Oh, by the way, the county magistrate, didn't you say that the government's relief food is about to arrive? Why haven't we heard any news after so long?" Lu Ziwan asked.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the imperial court called for the help of the Jiliang county magistrate, his face changed suddenly, and he slapped the table angrily.

"What's the matter?" Lian Guanlang asked hurriedly, "Could it be that the court took it back?"

"It's okay if the imperial court takes it back! I'm angry with those corrupt officials who are rich and unkind! Twenty tons of grain, in our hands, has become five tons! This time, two states were affected by the disaster, and the two states were split in half. We have a total of eight counties here, how do we divide these two tons of grain? There are so many people, one grain of rice per person may not be enough!"

"Five tons? How come it's only five tons? Where did the remaining fifteen tons go?" Lu Ziwan was shocked.

"Where else can we go, of course it's been deducted!" The magistrate sighed and shook his head, "Our capital is far away, so they will eat us and we have no way to report the five tons of rice. The emperor stayed in the capital, who can speak for the common people?"
