Rebirth in Another World

Bai Ran was stunned by the teacher's mother's voice. If he was a normal person, he would probably have punched him. But when it comes to Chen Zhu, he is a child after all, and he can't be serious with a child.

Seeing that Li Shang brought someone into the house to apply medicine, he turned back to the kitchen again, because he didn't expect Chen Zhu to come over suddenly, so he didn't cook much, but the food was enough, so he simply heated up the pancakes left over during the day to make up for it .

He was looking at the pot, when he suddenly felt a rumbling in his stomach, the pain made his face turn pale in an instant, and he managed to stand still by holding on to the edge of the stove.

Li Shang happened to come in, seeing this, he quickly helped Bai Ran to sit on the chair, put one hand on the other's swollen belly and twirled gently, "Is it better?"

"Yeah." Bai Ran took a deep breath, the fetal movement has become more and more obvious recently, occasionally he felt such pain that he was almost out of breath, luckily it didn't take too long, and he recovered after a while.

"Tomorrow, I'll go to Zhao Langzhong and show you, this little guy is too tough." Li Shang rubbed Bai Ran's cheek with a distressed expression, then squatted down and pressed his profile against the other's bulging belly On, training said: "You are so dishonest, let's see how I will deal with you when you come out."

"Don't be dealt with by your son instead." Bai Ran teased Li Shang, he had confidence in his son, and if he really couldn't do it, he could stand by and watch as a father.

Li Shang raised his head, "As long as you don't help, he won't be able to deal with me as a father if he borrows three more guts, and he may not be a son, maybe a daughter."

"It's a son." Bai Ran said with certainty, he could already sense the gender of the fetus in his womb with his supernatural powers, it couldn't be wrong.

"No wonder it's so Tao. I think I can call him Taotao when I think of the small name. Let's think about the big name together." Li Shang said, his brain can't wait to filter all the things he has learned, so that he can give it to him. The eldest son has a decent name.

"Tao Tao, it's quite suitable for the occasion, not bad." Bai Ran was often tossed about by this child, and now he looks really quite Tao, so he is quite satisfied with the nickname. As for the first name, the child has not come out yet, hurry up what.

The two of them were talking, when Chen Zhu touched the medicine after he had finished it, scratched his head, and shouted shyly, "Master, master."

The corners of Bai Ran's mouth twitched twice, and he really wanted to be called another name, but after thinking about it, he didn't know what to call him, so he could only give way to others silently.

After dinner, Li Shang asked Chen Zhu to go back first, while he took Bai Ran back to rest.

The next day, the proprietress came with a letter.

This reply was a few days later than the previous ones. The lady boss's complexion was sallow, with a lingering anxiety in her brows. When she saw Bai Ran, she couldn't help pouring out her bitterness, "Brother Bai, this plague But it made me miserable, now there are many sick people in the town, it’s too late for the big guys to hide, how can they go to restaurants to eat, our Liu Ji doesn’t have as many semicolons as Zuixianlou, and the guys are only free every day. Can catch flies all over the room, alas, I don’t know how long it can last.”

Bai Ran remembered Li Shang saying that his master was coming soon, and comforted him: "The plague won't last too long, and it will be over in two days."

The proprietress could only nod in agreement, and handed the letter to Li Shang with a bitter face.

There are two letters, one is from the border, and the other is from the capital. Li Shang opened the one at the border first. The handwriting is his master's, and the content is very brief. It was written by his father, telling him that the matter has been dealt with, and asked him to take his wife back to the capital first, after all, the plague is too dangerous.

Li Shang hesitated about going back, so he handed the letter to Bai Ran, "You decide."

Bai Ran took it over and looked it over, then handed it back to him, and said, "I'm just a villager, I can farm and do small business, and in a place like the capital, eight out of ten people are officials. My temper is born to offend people, maybe I will lose my head in the past two days, and I won’t be able to stay well."

"Then let's stay here in Taoxi Village and not go anywhere." Li Shang kissed Bai Ran on the face. In fact, he has lived in the border all year round, and he doesn't have a good impression of places like the capital.

After the two made a decision, he began to write back to explain the situation here, and then sealed the letter and gave it to the proprietress.

Three days later, Chen Zhu came to their house to report according to what Li Shang said. The hoe is down.

Before Chen Zhu came, he had already run around the village, and now his legs were a little straight, but he could only bear it, and he didn't move a single bit until Li Shang came back from the ground.

In the days that followed, Li Shang trained him like this every day, gradually increasing the time for squatting, but no matter what, Chen Zhu was able to persevere. Even Li Shang had to admire his tenacity.

However, because he practiced Chen Zhu so hard that he lost the strength to go home several times, so Bai Ran could only clean up the empty room next to him for the night.

In a short period of time, Chen Zhu settled down here for the time being.

About five days later, the first person in Taoxi Village who became ill appeared. This person was none other than Chen Zhu's mother, He Ying.

After so many days, most of the villagers have long forgotten how severe the plague is, and there is an endless stream of contacts from door to door, so the first one fell ill, and soon the second and third appeared, and fell ill in less than two days nearly half of the population.

Everyone panicked now.

As soon as Chen Zhu got the news, he asked Li Shang for leave and went to see He Ying. He hadn't been back recently, and he really didn't know why his mother was infected with the plague for no reason.

All those infected with the plague were sent to several empty houses at the entrance of the village, where they were treated together by Langzhong Zhao and a few men with a little knowledge of medicine.

Zhao Langzhong didn't say anything when he saw Chen Zhu, but just handed him a coat and a pullover, and then went to make medicine.

Chen Zhu quickly changed his clothes, covered himself tightly, and was dumbfounded when he found He Ying among the patients after entering the room.

He Ying is not the only one in this room, his sister Chen Juan and several members of Chen Juan's husband's family are also here.

Chen Zhu clearly remembered that his brother-in-law's family belonged to Dongwazi, and now that place was under martial law by the government, how did they get to Taoxi Village?

"Mother, big sister, what's going on?"

Chen Zhu covered herself too tightly, and two eyes were exposed all over her body, so He Ying didn't recognize her until she heard the voice. She was lying on a mat, her already pale face looked extremely unnatural, She lowered her head without looking at Chen Zhu, "What's the matter, hurry up, don't get infected."

"Why, are you guilty? Are you afraid that your son will know? Bah!" An old lady in the same room propped herself up, spat on the ground weakly, pointed at Chen Zhu and cursed: "We are all your old Chen's family like this!" Damn it, if something happens to me, even if I go to hell, I will have to drag your old Chen family's broom star down."

Other people who were still able to move expressed their support for the old lady one after another, with expressions as if they wished to kill their old Chen family. Chen Zhu was stunned, and looked blankly at He Ying and Chen Juan, hoping for an explanation.

He Ying hummed unwillingly for a while before explaining everything clearly.

It turned out that when the plague broke out in Dongwazi, Chen Juan and her husband's family escaped because they lived in a remote place. Later, she saw that the people sent by the government could not bear it anymore. Just a few days ago, she took her family with them Avoiding the eyes and ears of the officials, he slipped out quietly and ran to Chen's house for temporary shelter.

At that time, He Ying opened the door and saw that it was Chen Juan and they were taken aback. The village had regulations at the beginning of the plague. No matter whose relatives came from other villages, they had to report to the village head and hand them over to them. .

This so-called treatment is said to be either isolation or expulsion at the beginning, and only a small part can stay. After all, Chen Juan is her daughter, how can she be willing to hand over people, and Dongwazi is enough to suffer. How can anyone get kicked out after finally escaping?

She tested the temperature of several people one by one, and when she saw that no one had a fever, she took them into the house and hid them in peace.

Chen Juan and her husband-in-law stopped doing it when she heard this, "You are the one who infected our family. Juanzi and I didn't get sick at all when we arrived at Chen's house. If I knew this, I shouldn't have brought people to Tao Come to Xicun, bad luck!"

He Ying was already tired after talking so much, and didn't have the time to quarrel with them, so she kept waving her hands to let Chen Zhu leave quickly.

After hearing this, Chen Zhu was a little dissatisfied with his sister's family at first, but now when he heard what his brother-in-law said, he immediately became angry, and was about to go up and beat someone with his fists. It happened that Zhao Langzhong came in to look for him, and hurriedly dragged him out up.

The village chief was also there at this time, so Chen Zhu reluctantly returned to Bai Ran's place.

-

Bai Ran was also quite worried when he saw Chen Zhu leave. He saw Chen Zhu walking this way not long ago, but his expression looked like he had lost his soul. Could it be that He Ying was too sick? After leaving the yard, he walked up to Chen Zhu and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

The redness on Chen Zhu's eye circles hadn't gone away, seeing that it was Bai Ran, he told what happened before, and punched the wall a few times angrily after he finished speaking.

Bai Ran organized the conversation, and said: "There has never been anyone who has been sick before in Taoxi Village, so it must be the virus of the plague in the body of the outsider. There is an incubation period before the onset of this thing, and when your sister and the others come over It just so happens that during this incubation period, they are just like normal people during this period of time, so your mother didn't pay attention and just fell for the trick."

This matter is actually quite simple, but it is extremely complicated to explain to the ancients who have no concept, especially Chen Zhu, who has no brains.

Facing Chen Zhu's confused expression, Bai Ran sighed deeply, "Just pretend I didn't say..."

"Boy, what is the virus you are talking about, and what is the incubation period?" Just as he was about to go back, a voice suddenly sounded behind him, and he turned his head to see that it was an old man over sixty years slowly walking towards their house .

Bai Ran thought about it carefully, but he didn't have the slightest memory of the old man. He probably wasn't from Taoxi Village. ...

Sorry, professional doesn't match.

The old man seemed to notice it too, and he wasn't bothered about this issue. Instead, he sat down on a stone by the door, took off his shoes and patted him upside down, "Boy, is it okay to drink water as an excuse?"

"Sure, wait a minute." Bai Ran is not a stingy person, he just took a sip of water, and when he entered the room, he poured out a bowl of cold water and started to give it to the old man.

At this time, Li Shang in the field also noticed them, waved his hand, ran over here, and said to the old man with a smile: "Master, apprentice, I have finally expected you to come, come in and sit down, Xiao Ran , Make a pot of sugar water for Master."

Li Shang said that his master's name is Shen Chi, looking at the name, Bai Ran thought he was at most 50 or [-] years old, but he didn't expect to be an old man with all white hair and beard.

Although Shen Chi was old, he was nimble and kicked Li Shang with one kick, "Bah, is it easy for me, a bad old man, to come here, you brat, just buy me sugar water?"

Li Shang didn't care too much, "There is no tea in this country, and the sugar water is only used for entertaining distinguished guests. If you are really greedy, I'll go to the back mountain to pluck some leaves from trees and make tea."

Bai Ran ignored the two of them, turned into the kitchen and made a pot of sugar water, and poured a cup for each of the three when he returned to the room.

Li Shang pulled someone to sit on the kang, and introduced to the three, "Master, this is my daughter-in-law Bai Ran, and the younger one is Chen Zhu, the apprentice I just accepted. Xiao Ran, this is the one I told you about." Master Shen Chi, you are also called Master."

Bai Ran rolled his eyes at him, turned his head and called out, "Master."

Chen Zhu's condition was very bad, and after calling "Master", he went out and returned to his room.

Bai Ran said what happened just now as an explanation to Chen Zhu.

After hearing this, Shen Chi stroked his beard, and he really looked a little inscrutable, pointing at Bai Ran and said, "Leave them alone, come and sit here, and let the teacher take your pulse first."

Bai Ran had to give Li Shang face no matter what, so he moved over, sat down and stretched out his hand, feeling his pulse skillfully, and came to a conclusion after a while, "Yo, not bad, he's a big fat boy, my Stupid apprentice is really a blessing in disguise, have you got a son, have you got a name?"

Li Shang said: "Not yet, I'm still thinking about the name, this is not urgent, the most important thing now is the plague outside, Master, please give me an idea quickly."

Bai Ran curled his lips, no wonder he wasn't in a hurry, ever since he mentioned the gender of the child, Li Shang hasn't stopped, popping up two names every now and then to ask his opinion.

Shen Chi said disdainfully: "Is that considered a disease? Children's playthings, and a bunch of quack doctors treat intractable diseases. I encountered a disease on the way here. I will write a prescription later and you can give it to the village chief." Just take it over."
