Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

Chapter 681: epidemic prevention

The family must clean at night, and when the weather is fine, put the quilt in the middle of the yard to expose it to the sun.

Especially the kitchen, which needs to be cleaned many times, and the uneatable meals should be thrown away immediately, so as not to attract mice.

Several servants in the family have never experienced this battle, and they messed up their hands and feet.

Jiang???? is still old and hot. Old man He is old, knowledgeable and experienced. He is responsible for the preparation of medicinal materials, while Li Haitang has experience in epidemic prevention and guides the people in the city to do a good job in prevention and control.

The little bun is the key protection object. Li Haitang was worried and stayed up for two nights. The red blood in her eyes was like spider webs. When she closed her eyes, she dreamed of a big mouse biting the little hand of the bean bun.

It was Xiao Lingchuan, no matter how busy he was, he would definitely come back every night. The two of them moved the bean bag bed and made a small hammock. He had to hold his wife in his arms every night to be at ease.

"? Haitang, is there still hope for the border town?"

Ruan Pingzhi's class has long been suspended, and two of the babies he taught have already disappeared.

He used to live in the capital, at the foot of the emperor, and nothing would spread there. This was the first time he encountered a large-scale plague.

Ruan Pingzhi was very pessimistic about this. If the city gate was opened, he really wanted to take his son and escape here.

"??? Don't be afraid, everything will pass."

Li??? Haitang was also not sure. A few days ago, she wanted to go to the town to see the situation, but Wu Fu blocked the gate, resolutely obstructing it.

This is what Xiao Lingchuan meant, no matter what, he must not let his wife put herself in danger.

Bai Bing, who has always been obedient, could not afford to kneel because of this, begging her to think about bean buns.

With a series of bitter tricks, Li Haitang had no choice but to give up.

So???? so many innocent people's lives! However, there is very little she can do now.

"? I'm fine, I'm just worried about the fifth son."

Ruan??? Pingzhi's description was haggard, his eyes were blue and black, and he didn't dare to be sloppy in the slightest.

The two babies he taught were infected with the plague, and died within a few days of incubation.

Yesterday??? The funeral was held at the door of the house, and his eyes were red at home, but he was too timid to go out to see him off.

It's not that he didn't want to see the student for the last time, but he was worried that he would make a mistake and infect the little five.

The corpse???? had better be cremated, but the family members disagreed, and finally chose to bury it deeply, in the desolate area behind the mountain.

"???? It's useless to be afraid, what should come will still come."

Li Haitang was very fortunate, because she made a decision in time to close the city gates, and no case of plague was found in the surrounding cities for the time being.

If someone has a high fever, they must be isolated immediately. It is very necessary and the key to timely control of the transmission route.

The wailing sound of the border town, the glare of the sun, but the people's mood is so desperate, from the noisy at the beginning, to quietly waiting for the death to come.

Life in the city is not as good as in the village.

Few pedestrians could be seen on the street, all the shops were closed, and they were paralyzed.

The common people have surplus food in their homes, but no vegetables, and live on the radish and cabbage accumulated in winter.

"? Yes, think about the best in everything, at least the outbreak is in a border town, and there is no shortage of medicinal materials."

What kind of medicinal materials do you want? If you don't have enough, you go to the back mountain to collect them.

The medicine???? The ingredients are always the same. Old man He and Li Haitang prepared prescriptions for two people who were also sick.

There is an effect, but it is not obvious.

There is always something missing in the prescription of the medicine, and it cannot be perfectly blended.

Li Haitang was busy until late at night, resting her head on her elbows, thinking hard.

Xiao Lingchuan didn't understand these things, he just silently massaged his wife to make her feel more comfortable.

It would take a year and a half to control this plague at the fastest speed. She didn't want to wait until the gates of the city were opened in the future, and the border town would become an empty city.

Old man He has quite a lot of experience, and Li Haitang is helping Master.

The plague is similar to the previous method of treating smallpox, and both need to be quarantined.

And where to choose the isolation area is another problem.

The patients suffering from the plague are scattered and the area of ​​infection is increased for no reason. It is better to manage, treat and isolate them in a unified way.

"??? This large-scale outbreak of plague is more serious than you and I imagined."

The people in the city closed their doors, rarely communicated with the outside world, and dared not speak up when asked by officials.

Some people died silently after getting sick. The weather was hot, and within a few days, the corpses were left to rot, and the city was filled with the stench of rotting corpses.

Old???rats gnaw on the corpses, aggravating the spread of plague, and a vicious circle.

"???? The problem now is that the people are not cooperating when it comes to their lives."

To deal with the plague, treatment is one part, but prevention is the most important thing, and the cart should not be put before the horse.

First of all, rats and fleas must be eradicated, and the powder should also be sprinkled on livestock to cut off the source of infection.

Outside the window, the sun was shining brightly, and the breeze was blowing, blowing the white screens.

Standing in the halo, Li Haitang couldn't feel the temperature at all, and felt cold all over her body. This was quite a severe test for her.

The two masters and apprentices discussed and took Majia Village as the first pilot.

Majia Village cannot accept outsiders for the time being, and all the people in the village must catch rats, pay attention to hygiene, and take strict precautions.

It was the first time for the village head to experience this, and he was terribly afraid, feeling helpless.

In Majia Village, people can no longer be dead. It has to be a model for the surrounding villages to see, so that others can learn from it.

After speaking, Li Haitang took his master, old man He, and the master and apprentice discussed the prescription again.

The most common type of plague is the glandular type, which often occurs in the early stages of the epidemic.

Sudden onset of chills, high fever, headache, fatigue, skin ecchymosis, bleeding, accompanied by swollen lymph nodes in the groin, neck, and armpits.

If it continues to develop, it can turn into a more serious lung type, with obvious symptoms of systemic poisoning, and severe coughing, and the sputum changes from a small amount to a large amount of bright red **** sputum.

If it cannot be rescued in time, it will only have a lifespan of two or three days. Before dying, the skin of the patient will turn black and purple, so it is called the Black Death.

According to government statistics, so far, the number of deaths due to the plague has risen to hundreds. It is conceivable how rapid the development is.

"??? Master, everything remains the same. It is still necessary to relieve the exterior and clear heat, detoxify and reduce swelling."

In the history of Daqi, there was a large outbreak of plague, but it was not effectively controlled. The government forcibly imprisoned the sick people, and those who contracted the cold were all imprisoned together.

In the end, they were all beheaded and cremated, and one million people died.

This is the official data from a hundred years ago, and Li Haitang does not know how many people died, but she believes that it is likely to be more than this number.

There is no previous experience, and the prescription must be prepared by yourself.

Regarding the amount of each medicinal material, it needs to be carefully considered.

Huang Cen, coptis, isatidis, forsythia, root ginseng, raw gypsum, anemarrhena, peppermint, red peony root, large fritillaria, Prunella vulgaris, habitat, these detoxifying medicinal materials are indispensable.

"Adding two supplements will get twice the result with half the effort." From the theory, old man He agrees, and added two more, namely puffball and raw licorice, for reducing phlegm and relieving cough.
