I am old in the Han Dynasty

People habitually want to ask whether it is true or not.Seeing that Xie Lang was going to the cemetery with the chicken head in his hands, he ran home in a hurry.

Xie Guang heard footsteps, turned his head to look, and asked in surprise, "They didn't follow?"

"It's about us, they don't care about our life or death." Xie Lang said, "You have to remember this in the future."

Xie Guang nodded, "Thank you Uncle Sanlang."

"Wait, you didn't have a shovel?" Xie Lang turned his head and saw that he only had firewood and a scythe in his hands, pointed at Xie Erlang's house and said, "Look for my second brother to borrow a shovel."

"Oh, good." Xie Guang caught up with Xie Lang with a shovel in his hand, before he asked, "What do you want this for?"

Xie Lang: "Dig a hole." Go to the cemetery, drop the chicken and point to the open space on the side of the road for him to dig.

"So strict?" Xie Guang asked in surprise.

Xie Lang thought to himself, if it wasn't for the fact that there is no epidemic prevention station here, lime can only be used for disinfection, and if people are infected, they can only obey the destiny, so he would not do it himself, "This way we can isolate the plague."

"Wouldn't it be burnt to death?" Xie Guang asked.

Xie Lang asked back: "How do you know that you will be burned to death? Have you ever thought about what would happen if the chicken bones were still in your chicken coop after eating them?"

Xie Guang shook his head, he didn't know.In the past, there were only a few cows in the entire silkworm farm, and there were only a few chickens and ducks in each household. There was no plague, so he didn't think about it that much.

"Dig!" Xie Lang said.

Xie Guang dug two feet deep, Xie Lang threw the firewood down to light it, then threw the chicken down, then stepped aside with Xie Guang, covering their mouth and nose with their clothes.When the chicken was almost burnt out, Xie Lang directly asked Xie Guang to bury it in the soil.

Xie Guang breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay."

"Be careful these few days." Xie Lang said, "If there is something wrong, take it over and burn it. Don't take chances. Chickens are cheap now, and a hen is not worth five cents. If someone is infected, go to the city You can get ten cents for just grabbing a pair of medicine."

Xie Guang nodded again and again, "I know. My family doesn't have many chickens and ducks, including this one, it's only thirteen—"

"Saburo, Saburo, something serious happened."

Xie Lang was shocked, he was most afraid of hearing the word "something happened" right now, he turned his head and saw that it was Xie Bowen, and hurriedly went up to him, "Who has something happened?"

"Qian Xiaohua!"

Xie Lang: "She doesn't want to kill chickens?"

"She killed a ghost! Before New Year's Eve, I saw some chickens sold by your elder brother and I, and that woman sold all the chickens and ducks in the house. Now there are only a few female ducks left." Xie Bowen said, "She relied on you to say , Whoever dares to conceal and refuse to report will be expelled from the silkworm farm, and will go to the family that she doesn't deal with to see if their chickens and ducks are sick.

"She was not allowed to look at it, so she said that his chickens were sick, so she wanted to find you and asked you to drive him out of the silkworm farm. When he stopped her, she said that he hurt her and got into a fight with him. "

Xie Lang couldn't help cursing, "Damn woman! Xie Guang, take off your clothes when you get home, and wash them with hot water."

"Leave him alone. When I came here, I was fighting hard. If you don't go, you will die."

Xie Lang snatched the shovel from Xie Guang's hand, "Let's go! If I don't beat up Qian Xiaohua today, I won't be Xie."

Striding to the east of the village, I heard many people yelling, "Sanlang is here, and Sanlang is here with his big knife."

Xie Lang walked over, everyone gave way, Xie Lang raised his hand and hit Qian Xiaohua's ass with a shovel.

"Why hit me?" Qian Xiaohua jumped up.

Xie Lang: "It was you who hit you." He raised the shovel again.

"You stop!"

"Don't hit my mother."

Xie Lang stopped and saw Qian Xiaohua's man and child, "Are you all here? Then I will fight you too." A shovel was thrown at Qian Xiaohua's man.

Qian Xiaohua's son rushed towards Xie Lang. Xie Lang turned around, grabbed the boy's arm and threw him on Xie Jiankang, "Tie him up for me. The plague didn't come, civil strife first, I won't send them away today." Let’s be honest, I’m not Lizheng in silkworm farming.” Seeing Qian Xiaohua’s sister-in-law approaching, Xie Lang pointed at her, “Have you forgotten about my kung fu skills? Don’t mention you alone, you two are adults and children Together, it is not my opponent."

Qian Xiaohua's sister-in-law stopped suddenly.

Xie Lang turned to Qian Xiaohua's man, "Come again!"

The man backed away subconsciously.

Xie Lang stopped, holding the shovel, pointing at the woman who was tearing up with Qian Xiaohua just now, "Open the door!"

The woman hurried to open the door.

Xie Lang didn't go in, "The chickens and ducks are all driven out."

"Can't be driven out." Xie Jiankang said in Qianli.

Xie Lang turned to him, "Listen to you, listen to me?"

"Listen, listen to you, you are the head of the village." Xie Jiankang said quickly.

Xie Lang turned to Xie Bowen, "Go in with her and watch her drive out."

"Okay." Xie Bowen picked up the broom placed on the side of the road and went in to drive the chickens and ducks out. Xie Lang picked up the shovel and slapped hard on the open space between the chickens and ducks. The ducks flew like a chicken, and Xie Lang asked, "Are you sick?" sick?"

Only then did everyone understand that if they are not sick now, but if they get sick in the future, Qian Xiaohua can't bite back.

Xie Lang: "Close the house. Clean it frequently these days. When you go to sell things in the city, don't buy things in the city, eat vegetables and tofu to make do." Turning to Qian Xiaohua, "What do you want to say?"

Qian Xiaohua, who was clutching her buttocks, wanted to say a lot, but the word "not sick" blocked her full of complaints.

Xie Lang pointed at Qian Xiaohua's son, "Your mother is illiterate, ignorant, and you are also ignorant? Master taught you everything you learned from a dog's stomach? Are you relying on me to teach you a few tricks?" Are you invincible in silkworm rearing?" Then he turned to the other children, "Let me know that you don't stop adults from fighting, and even help the evildoers, and if I don't beat you up, I'm not Xie Sanlang!"

The half-children shivered.

Xie Lang said with a straight face: "Call everyone out, I have something to explain!"

"Who's going?" Xie Bowen asked in a low voice.

Xie Lang said: "You go with my second brother. Adults and children call me out. Except my Xiao Qi."

"Okay." Xie Bowen quickly called Xie Erlang.

The silkworm breeding place is not big, and in a short while, the two of them called everyone out.

Xie Lang said to Xie Jiankang in front of him, "Look at them." Picking four adults and two children at random, "Follow me from house to house to check!"

Many people's faces changed.

Xie Lang didn't wait for them to speak before he said, "Only go to your chicken coop and duck coop, not to your main room. If anyone suspects that their chickens and ducks are sick, stand up and let us go together."

Only three came out.

Xie Lang and the three men caught a chicken and a duck successively, and broke the chicken and duck's neck. They continued to search from house to house, but only seven hens and eight ducks were found.Gein sold [-]% of most of the people, and Xie Dalang, who has a good relationship with big wine shops, almost sold out the chickens and ducks.

Xie Lang asked someone to carry the dead chickens and ducks, and carry the firewood to the cemetery to burn them.

The people in the village followed him and saw that he was buried with soil after burning, just like burying people, and they finally knew how to be afraid.

When they got home, they killed the live roosters and ducks and salted them.

In this way, the air in the silkworm rearing is improved.

Xie Lang didn't dare to be careless, he killed two female ducks the next day, stewed them to feed the three ducks, and went door-to-door to inquire.

Probably Xie Lang frightened the villagers yesterday, all of them were as honest as quails, invited him into the house before he could speak, woke up the sleeping chickens and ducks, and let him take a closer look.

Xie Lang turned around, his throat was dry and his legs were sore from exhaustion. When he got home, he threw his clothes into the basin and led Xiao Qi to the bedroom to sleep.

Half asleep and half awake, Xie Lang heard the sound of thumping, suspected that he was dreaming, and continued to sleep with the child in his arms.

But Xiao Qi couldn't sleep, he stayed at home for the past few days and only slept and ate, and finally met outsiders, how could he let it go.

"Third Master, someone is knocking on the door." Xiao Qi knelt on the couch and pushed his arm vigorously.

Xie Lang turned over and covered his head with the quilt, "Don't care!"

"Third Lord, it's Uncle Xie Guang."

Xie Lang couldn't help heaving a long sigh, rubbing his hair, rubbing the corners of his eyes, and walked out with his shoes, "What's the matter?"

"There is a plague in the city."

Xie Bowen's voice came in.

Xie Lang woke up suddenly, opened the door and asked, "Did you see it?"

"People are not allowed to enter." Xie Bowen pointed to the car behind him, "The vegetarian chickens were not sold, and all of them were brought back."

Xie Lang: "Seriously?"

Xie Bowen shook his head, "I didn't see it with my own eyes. But there are several more soldiers guarding the city, so it must be very serious. Sanlang, the eldest son Wang and the second son will be okay, right?"

Xie Lang shook his head, "No. I told them about it."

After New Year's Eve, Liu Che and Wei Qing came to see Xie Lang's pigs sold, the pigsty was empty, and more than half of the ducks and chickens were missing. Sold and moved to town.

Xie Lang told him seriously that he was worried about the plague.

Liu Che was concerned at the time, and it was impossible not to take preventive measures.

"I'll go to the city tomorrow to have a look. Permission means it's not a big deal."

Xie Bowen nodded, "I think so too. Otherwise, the restaurant won't be able to get our vegetarian chicken, and it won't be able to do business tomorrow."

"Then I won't say anything more." Xie Lang turned his head to Xiao Qi, "Look at home, I'll go out for a walk."

Xiao Qi looked at him, "I also want to go out for a walk."

"Let's go." Xie Lang stretched out his hand, "You have to drink ginger soup when you come back."

It is now the sixth year of Yuanguang, and the child is already seven years old, and he knows what plague is.Xie Lang forbade him to go out and told him to drink hot ginger soup for his own good, so he nodded vigorously, "Okay!"

Xie Lang led the child around the silkworm farm, told the villagers what happened in the city, and then took the child home to cook ginger soup.

The next day, Yao Guizhi was asked to look after Xiaoqi for him, and Xie Lang and Xie Bowen went to the city together.

The gate of the city was wide open, Xie Lang heaved a sigh of relief, and accompanied Xie Bowen to sell his things and then came back.

Xie Bowen couldn't help asking, "Why don't you go to Prince Wang's house to have a look?"

"He's definitely not at home." Xie Lang said, "Today is not a holiday."

Xie Bowen counted the days, and thought that there was also a plague in the city. Although the two sons of the Wang family are petty officials, they are also the emperor's close ministers. The emperor is busy, and they have no time to relax. "It's still you who are thoughtful."

"I'm worried about them. They treat me as a friend, and they will also worry about me." Xie Lang said, "In less than three days, they will come to me."

On the last day of March, the sun was shining brightly, and the haze that pervaded the silkworm breeding area dissipated. Xie Lang took out all the quilts and thick clothes at home, and heard the clattering of horseshoes.

Xie Lang turned to Xiao Qi, "Go and see if it's your Grandpa Zhongqing."

"You know Zhongqing."

The voice fell, and the door was pushed open.

Xie Lang looked over and was taken aback for a moment, Liu Che had lost weight, and much thinner, "You came here by yourself?"
