The old lady was lying on her side, her face was covered with unkempt hair, her body was dirty, and she was wearing common clothes. Gu Jiao's first reaction was that the villagers of this village might have just come back from the field, but she didn't know why. Fainted in front of her house.
The loud noise just now was made by her head hitting the door panel, her forehead was smashed, and there was a little blood.
It's not that Gu Jiao never met Pang Ci'er in her previous life, but if she wanted to touch her with her life, she didn't.
The other party really fainted.
Gu Jiao squatted down, wanting to see who she belonged to or to send her back, but as soon as she turned the other person's body over to lie down, Gu Jiao realized something was wrong.
She has symmetrical light-colored lesions and reddish patches on her face with indistinct borders, as well as on the backs of both hands.
Gu Jiao frowned slightly, this was clearly...
"Sister! We're back!"
At this moment, Gu Xiaoshun carried an old book bag and ran towards Gu Jiao like a fly.
Gu Jiao turned to look at him, her eyes sharpened: "Don't come here!"
Gu Jiao had never spoken to Gu Xiaoshun in such a stern tone, and Gu Xiaoshun was stunned.
"Sister..." He took two more steps forward.
"I said, don't come here!" Gu Jiao's tone became even colder.
This time, Gu Xiaoshun didn't dare to move at all, and just stood dumbfounded about ten paces away from Gu Jiao.
He saw Gu Jiao, and naturally he also saw the old lady lying at Gu Jiao's door.
Intuition told him that this matter had something to do with the old lady.
He asked, "Sister, who is she?"
Gu Jia stared and said, "I don't know, you should look back at home first."
Originally, she planned to call Gu Xiaoshun over for dinner, but now that something like this happened, the safety of the home could not be fully guaranteed, and she could not harm Gu Xiaoshun.
Boss Gu Xiaoshun was not happy anymore, but since his sister said so, he should go back first.
"Then what, brother-in-law, I'll go first." He turned to Xiao Liulang behind him.
Gu Jiao was slightly stunned, Xiao Liulang also came back
Not only Xiao Liulang, Feng Lin also came here.
Feng Lin helped his tablemate to review his homework, and the tablemate gave him a basket of grapefruit as a thank you, and he directly gave half of it to Xiao Liulang. Worried that Xiao Liulang couldn't carry it, he sent it back to the village.
As for Gu Xiaoshun, he always bullied Xiao Liulang, and Feng Lin was also a little worried that Xiao Liulang would go home with him, looking at them a bit.
Xiao Liulang and Feng Lin both noticed the old lady on the ground at this time.
"You'd better not come here." Gu Jiao said to the two of them.
Feng Lin frowned strangely: "She died? You didn't kill her, did you?"
"Hey! What nonsense are you talking about!" Gu Xiaoshun couldn't get used to this little white face who always slandered his sister.
Feng Lin hummed, "Am I wrong? Something must have happened to the old man, otherwise why didn't we let us go?"
Xiao Liulang walked over with a cold expression.
"You... don't come here." Gu Jiao said.
Xiao Liulang still came.
In fact, he could see that something was wrong from a long distance, but when he got closer and took a closer look, he was sure of the guess in his heart.
Seeing him walking over, Feng Lin hurriedly followed.
"Hey! Why did you all pass by! Sister, I... I... " Gu Xiaoshun scratched his head anxiously.
Feng Lin came to Xiao Liulang and looked at the old lady with a red face, an ominous feeling filled his heart: "Brother Xiao, this is..."
"Leprosy." Xiao Liulang said with a frown.
Feng Lin swayed and almost fell!
"This, this, this, this... This old lady is a leper..." Feng Lin stuttered in shock.
You must know that leprosy is one of the most terrifying infectious diseases. It is said that as long as one person in the village is infected, the whole village will be infected. Moreover, there is no cure for this disease. If you get it, you can only wait for death.
There have been tragedies in the past in which tens of thousands of people died because they did not pay enough attention to leprosy.
The first major event of the founding emperor of this dynasty after he ascended the throne was to establish a mountain of leprosy and send all lepers to the mountain for centralized management.
"Did you touch her?" Xiao Liulang looked at Gu Jiao calmly.
Gu Jiao nodded.
However, she only touched it just now, and her skin was not damaged, so there is little chance of being infected.
But others may not think so.
If it was known that Gu Jiao had been in contact with a leper, she would definitely be sent to Leper Mountain with the patient.
In places like Leprosy Mountain, once you go up, you never want to come down again.
Feng Lin took Xiao Liulang to a dozen steps away, and said in shock, "You heard what she said. She has touched that leper, and she must be sent away immediately! Otherwise, your whole village will be infected!"
Xiao Liulang frowned slightly.
Feng Lin stomped his feet and said, "Oh, Brother Xiao, what are you still hesitating about? Didn't you always want to get rid of that evil woman? It was she who touched a leper herself, and she was infected in all likelihood. According to the laws of the imperial court, She has to be sent to Leper Mountain, this is a legitimate opportunity to get rid of her!"
Feng Lin thought about it, Xiao Liulang is a scholar, and if he does something like abandoning his wife and children, it will ruin his reputation. The current situation is simply a timely rain, which can not only preserve his reputation, but also get rid of that evil woman!
"No one will be sent to Leper Mountain." Xiao Liulang said calmly.
Feng Lin was startled.
Xiao Liulang walked towards Gu Jiao with a cane: "Bring a piece of dry cloth."
Gu Jiao didn't ask any further, Yiyan went to the room and got a clean piece of cloth.
Xiao Liulang took the piece of cloth from her and squatted down in front of the old lady.
Realizing what he was going to do, Gu Jiao said, "I'll come."
"No." Xiao Liulang wrapped the cloth around the old lady's face, blocking her nose and mouth, "Bring the person in."
"Okay." Gu Jiao nodded.
"Hey! Brother Xiao!" Feng Lin stopped him.
Gu Xiaoshun has also heard a lot of things at this moment. He dared to feel that the old lady was a leper who came from nowhere. His sister didn't let him go because he was afraid of being infected.
But is he, Gu Xiaoshun, such a rude person
Gu Xiaoshun ran over to help his sister and brother-in-law carry the person into the backyard.
Feng Lin stamped his feet anxiously.
crazy!
Y'all are crazy!
Afterwards, he also gritted his teeth and entered the house at the risk of being infected!
Did you guess the identity of the old lady
