Chapter 260 Crossing the Brazier
"Xiao'an Village is not close to here, how did you get here? By water?" asked the masked yamen servant.
"Yes, sir, let's go down the river on a raft." Yan Er Er replied.
"This is your son?"
Yan Er Er hesitated and said, "It's my boy."
"You are really courageous. You just passed Beirong into the village during the day, and then dared to follow you to Gufeng on a raft...
I also followed you as a father.
Looking at your outfits, it doesn’t look like you don’t know Gu Feng’s situation. How dare you run this way? What’s the matter?
Looking for relatives and friends? "He shook the guide on his hand.
The reason for the above statement is precisely this one.
Yan Yu opened her eyes wide.
Looking at these people again at this time, they seem familiar, um, their voices are also familiar.
Could it be...
"Visiting relatives, and delivering letters along the way." Yan Laoer explained honestly.
It would be too false to just say that I came to find someone, and the matter of delivering a letter for Dr. An can be used to talk about it.
"It's really warm-hearted. The father and son stayed up for two nights, and ran to Gu Fenglai to help people deliver letters..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the rest of the yamen servants laughed.
Obviously don't believe it.
What kind of relationship is this, so I have to make this trip.
"Where is the letter?" The man asked casually, not thinking he could take it out.
I don’t want Yan’s second brother to really take it out.
The action of digging out letters is quicker than digging out roads.
"Please read the official, here is the letter." He put the letter on the ground again, licked his face and said with a smile: "I don't know if it is convenient for the officials to bring this letter from home to the three Dr. An in Hui'an Hall of Yongning City .”
He added another sentence: "You can give it to Dr. An."
The yamen servant didn't want to pick it up, but when he heard Huimin Hall in Yongning City...he immediately picked up the letter.
"Have you been to Yongning? Did you know Huimintang in Anjia?"
Yan Er Er: "Doctor An is visiting Huju City, and my elder brother is working in Huju Yamen. He knew that I would come to Gufeng, so he asked me to bring a letter to his father and uncle."
"Huju? Is the city also closed?" The yamen servant asked, "How did you get in?"
"It's been closed for a while." Yan Laoer said: "The old master placed the victims and patients outside the city, and even blocked the wooden fence. We also talked about it from a distance."
"You said that your brother is working in Huju. If I remember correctly... the people in your village are all fleeing famine. How long have you been unregistered? Which class did you join?"
It's no wonder people questioned her so carefully.
Yamen servants seem to be the bottom of the official yamen, not popular, but this job can be passed down from generation to generation.
It is to make up for others, most of them are looking for people who are born and raised who know their roots.
How could it be made up from refugees who have just landed? !
"Being a household book in the government office." Yan Laoer replied honestly.
All Yamen servants: ...
"Your brother... elder brother, is a scholar?"
As soon as he arrived, he entered the house with the most lucrative households, either with connections or skills.
If you have connections, how can you settle in Huju City, that is, if you have the ability, literacy is not enough, you need some knowledge, so that the elder will give a fat vacancy to keep someone.
"Yes..." Second Yan wanted to show off, because my brother is famous!
Think about it or forget it, low-key, low-key.
The yamen servant thought for a while, and said: "Stay farther away and wait. After we finish our work, we will send you there."
After finishing speaking, he put the letter back on the ground, took two steps back, looked at Yan's second son, and waited for him to pick it up.
Yan’s second child: …
"If Gu Feng is as inaccessible as Hu Ju, then we won't make trouble." Second Yan said: "Please trouble me..."
The yamen servant waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, Gu Feng also places all the patients outside the city, and the three Dr. An you are looking for are all here, just let us go."
After speaking, he turned his head to greet those people, and dug the pit deeper...
They worked swiftly, and it seemed that they speeded up for them.
Yan Laoer was not moved at all.
Taking advantage of people not paying attention, he quickly picked up the letter with a cloth towel and threw it into the basket on Sanbao's body.
He looked at his daughter.
Yan Yu quickly spread her hands, expressing her powerlessness.
She whispered the identities of these people.
Yan Lao Er finally realized why these people spoke so well. It turned out that they were officials from Yongning City who had been to the village during the day.
The government servants in Fucheng are half a head taller than other cities.
Yan's second child is even less talkative.
Yan Yu, on the other hand, tried to get close to his uncles by taking advantage of the convenience of dealing with them.
The yamen servants still had an impression of this quick-learned boy. With Lao Yan's relationship, they were no longer aloof.
"Fortunately, there are not many people coming, otherwise your village will be in danger..."
"Those Beirongs seem to have come to explore the way, so we need to be more prepared in the future."
"But don't worry too much. If these people can't go back, Beirong has to weigh it carefully. They may not go this way again."
"Over the mountain, it is only suitable for small groups of people..."
Yan's second son also followed suit in a timely manner.
Although he came to Guanzhou for a short time, he has been to many places. In order to sell charcoal and incense sticks, he has also dealt with many people, and he always pays attention to all kinds of news on the street.
Especially what happened in Yongning City, these people sound very kind.
The atmosphere gradually became harmonious.
At first, I thought the senior and junior were avoiding them as if avoiding a disaster, but now I was worried that they were not standing far enough.
Keep them back.
"You guys look weird with your outfits, but you're quite thoughtful when you think about it." A yamen servant said.
Yan Laoer's heart moved, "I saw that it was the case in Huju City, so I let my family learn to sew. It is probably quite useful. There are errands there, and those disaster victims who help are rarely reported. sickness."
The gang of yamen servants working in Fucheng are very shrewd.
Listen to the sound and quickly grasp the key points.
"Huju City used the victims to help? What help? How can they let them go around?! Are you afraid that the epidemic will not be able to be contained?"
"It's really too busy to come up with such an idea, but it looks good, those people also wrapped themselves tightly, helping to cook porridge, clean and wash, deliver medicine and take care of the sick …
There is still a lot that can be done. "Yan Er Er concluded.
He added another sentence: "My brother said that the situation in Huju City is getting better, maybe he will be able to come home in a few days."
Several yamen servants exchanged glances.
After finishing their work, these yamen servants kept their word and took the two of them outside Gufeng City.
Different from the well-organized Huju City, this place is a mess.
Yan Er Er had seen the chaos when Hu Ju had just closed the city, but compared with what he was seeing, it was really nothing.
Someone saw them coming back and lit a brazier and brought it over.
Several yamen servants stepped over it calmly.
After that, he motioned for Yan Laoer and Yan Yu to come too.
My wrist hurts, and my speed has not improved~
I have to make up tomorrow~
Today, the house is really under control, and I didn’t chop my hands~
But, I bought a lot of things for my relatives, and I got addicted to shopping again, and I don’t have to worry about money. It’s great~(*^▽^*)
