Such a thing had happened in their village. A young married woman once secretly hid her brother in their village because he had committed a crime back home. In the end, she attracted the attention of an official from the county government.
But that was still not too bad. At least it was not an epidemic disease.
“How about gathering all the able-bodied men in the village to take turns guarding the village every day to prevent outsiders from entering?” Qian Jiyun walked over and suggested.
Many villages were probably doing this now. Otherwise, it would be very chaotic.
Qian Yiyun walked over too and echoed her brother’s suggestion, “That’s right, Sister Jiuyue. It’ll be fine if many people are guarding.”
“That’s a good idea, but there are drawbacks. Zheng’er, come here.”
An Jiuyue nodded before shaking her head. She then summoned Zheng’er, who was playing at the side.
“Mother.”
Zheng’er and Rong’er walked over together.
“Zheng’er, Rong’er, you heard what we said just now. What would you do if it were you?” She squatted down beside them.

Aunt Ju and Aunt Miao were dumbfounded.
What is Jiuyue doing? The two children are still young. What good ideas can they have?
“Jiuyue, what are you…”
Zheng’er thought for a moment and said softly, “I think Uncle Qian’s idea is very good, Mother. But it would be even better if we also have a hidden sentry post.”
“That’s right, that’s right, Mother.”
Rong’er naturally agreed with his older brother. He nodded quickly, expressing agreement.
“You told us a few days ago that the most important thing when hunting is to set up a few traps. We can chase the smaller animals into the traps and lure the bigger ones by throwing some food inside the traps.”
“Mother, Mother, I think there should be someone guarding for everyone to see, but there must also be someone guarding secretly,” Zheng’er said to his mother seriously.
“That’s right! Zheng’er and Rong’er are awesome. I’ll cook something delicious for you later, okay?”
An Jiuyue nodded at them in satisfaction and encouraged them so that they would continue working hard in the future.
“Thank you, Mother,” the two little ones thanked her in unison.
“Go and play. Keep an eye out for your younger brothers, especially your third brother,” An Jiuyue instructed them and stood up after they left.
Aunt Miao thought for a moment and said, “Jiuyue, are you saying we should let people go into houses every day secretly? That can only be possible at night.”
Although that would be a little troublesome, an epidemic was not a trivial matter. They had to do something no matter what.
“No.” An Jiuyue shook her head.
“Zheng’er meant that the Junior Officer and the Chief should send some of the able-bodied men to secretly monitor the roads leading into our village every day. If anyone is about to enter the village, they have to quickly inform the others to stop them.
“Everyone who leaves the village, even those entering the mountain, have to register with the Chief or the Junior Officer to inform where they are going. They also cannot be away for too long.
“Also, what you suggested has to be done too, Aunt Miao. But it cannot be done in secret.”
