Qin An Ning shrank his neck guiltily and whispered in defense, "Well, I've learned it before, and I've read so many books and ancient prescriptions, so some ideas will automatically pop up in my mind. I can't help it!"
Qin Zhen sighed, "I know this is your hobby, and you have talent in this area, but things aren't so peaceful right now. You should hide your shortcomings a little, and everything will be fine after a few years when things are stable."
His position was rising, and he felt more confident in protecting Ningning.
"I understand, Dad. I'll slow down from now on. Don't worry."
But sometimes things don't go as you planned.
Two days after the father and daughter reached an agreement, Commander Chen came to Qin Zhen's home.
"Ningning, are you not busy recently?" Commander Chen started chatting with Qin An Ning with a smile as soon as he arrived.
Qin Anning answered obediently, "Uncle Chen, I'm busy with school graduation now."
"Commander Chen, why did you come here in person? If you need anything, send someone to call me and I'll come over!"
Qin Zhen sat aside with his back straight and a serious expression, and took over the conversation.
He used to be a soldier under Commander Chen. The two had fought side by side and crawled out of piles of dead bodies together. They had a life-and-death friendship.
It’s just that we were no longer in the same military region, so we didn’t have much contact.
Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, he returned to the command of Commander Chen.
Based on his understanding of Commander Chen, he came here today most likely for Ningning, and the only thing that Commander Chen was thinking about about Ningning was medicine.
"Hey, what's the point of being a commander at home? Don't look so serious. Let's just chat casually."
Qin Zhenxin said, I don’t believe you at all!
Commander Chen didn't care whether Qin Zhen believed it or not, he was not here to find Qin Zhen.
He chatted amiably with Qin An Ning for a while before asking, "Ning Ning, I came here today because I have something to ask you.
Can you distribute the medicine you gave me to treat hidden injuries to the entire army?"
After he finished speaking, there was a hint of regret on his face, "There is no soldier in the army who is not injured. Some are just less serious and have no impact, but there are also many elites who retire due to injuries.
It is not easy for us to train a talent. I feel sorry for them because they retire due to injury and cannot participate in high-intensity training.
After taking the pills you gave me, my hidden injuries that had lasted for years were all healed, so I was wondering if you could give this medicine to those soldiers as well?"
This was not something Commander Chen came up with on a whim, but something he had been thinking about for a long time.
The medicinal oil for bruises and injuries that Qin Anning donated before was very effective. The soldiers’ bruises, swellings and sprains healed quickly after just applying and massaging them.
At that time, he knew that Qin An Ning's prescription was not ordinary. Later, after taking the medicine to treat hidden injuries, he became more certain.
But not only did they donate 30,000 yuan worth of medicinal oil, they also donated the recipe to the army. However, they didn't mention a word about the medicine for treating hidden injuries. He thought that they might have some concerns.
If one of his elite men was not facing the issue of retirement due to injury this time, he would not have sacrificed his reputation to come here.
He also had some selfish motives. He was about to retire, and if he could get this done before he retired, it would be a perfect ending for himself.
After hearing what Commander Chen said, Qin Anning first looked at Qin Zhen. Qin Zhen's expression was not very good, and he was obviously a little conflicted.
This matter involved soldiers defending their country, and Qin An Ning really couldn't refuse outright.
As a military family member, she could fully understand why Commander Chen made this request and also wanted to do her part to help the soldiers.
But things are not that easy. She used the medicinal materials in the space to make the pill, and she has not found any medicinal materials with the same effects outside yet. It is not feasible to mass-produce it.
Qin Anning said in embarrassment, "Uncle Chen, it's not that I don't want to provide it to the army, but the herbs in that pill are very rare. I just happened to come across a few of them in the mountains when I went to the countryside.
I made some of it into medicinal wine and gave it to Uncle Zhou and others, and made the rest into pills for my father and you to take. I never encountered the same medicinal ingredient again after that.
Without the herbs, the recipe can't be made!"
Commander Chen's face was clearly disappointed, but he still managed a smile and consoled her, "It's okay. Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. If you can't make it, I won't make it difficult for you."
Alas, maybe this is the fate of being a soldier!
Qin An Ning couldn't bear to see such a strong soldier showing such a lonely expression. Besides, Uncle Chen was not doing this for him.
She looked at Qin Zhen again. Qin Zhen guessed what she might be thinking and nodded imperceptibly.
"Uncle Chen, I can try to use existing herbs to replace those special herbs. However, Chinese herbs interact with each other, so if you replace one herb, you have to consider the ratio of the other herbs. So this can be said to be creating a new prescription. The process is quite complicated, and the results will not be so fast..."
Commander Chen interrupted Qin Anning excitedly, "It doesn't matter how long it takes, Ningning. As long as you can figure it out, I'll commend you."
Qin Anning smiled and shook his head. "We'll decide whether to ask for credit or not after it's done. But I have one request. I hope this matter can be kept secret."
Commander Chen solemnly assured, "Don't worry, no one else will know about this before it's done.
If you don't want to publicize it after you succeed, I will keep this matter within the knowledge of a small number of senior executives."
After all, whether it is rewards or production, he can't decide it alone, he must report to his superiors.
The matter was settled and Commander Chen did not stay long. After he left, Qin Zhen could not help but sigh. Just when he told his daughter to hide her shortcomings, the matter came up again.
He said in a deep voice, "There's a squad leader in the army, only 24 years old. He was seriously injured during a mission. He'll be able to lead a normal life, but his body's agility and resistance to training intensity will never be restored to their original state. If he can't accept the transfer to a civilian position, he'll have no choice but to retire."
This is also the reason why he did not stop his daughter. These soldiers knew from the day they joined the army that defending their country was their duty and they were willing to sacrifice anything for it.
The military's mission has been integrated into their bones and blood. They love their identity as a soldier, and no one is willing to retire unless it is absolutely necessary.
“Ningning…”
Qin Anning showed a sweet and well-behaved smile, "Dad, I understand, and I will protect myself."
Qin An Ning, who was not very busy originally, became busy again after taking on this task.
I was so busy in the space laboratory every day trying out various drugs that could be substituted for each other but were not incompatible with each other that I almost forgot to send Smith's scar cream over.
If Cheng Shuqing hadn't called to ask, she really wouldn't have remembered it.
"Ningning, if the ointment is ready, please come over in person. You have to sign in person before you can take the necklace back."
"Okay, I'll go over now."
Qin An Ning drove out of the compound without noticing Jiang Mei's resentful look behind him.
