It was very hot and humid during the day, but the temperature dropped in the early morning.
At night, Shulan, which was quite far away from Shulan, unconsciously moved closer to the heat source because of the sudden cold.
He Fengmian had already woken up the moment she approached.
Seeing the petite woman constantly moving closer to him, he ultimately decided to pull her to his side.
She carried a faint medicinal scent from her bath earlier that day, which, once it entered her nostrils, went straight to her head.
Shulan didn't wake up. She was sleeping soundly and felt very comfortable. She subconsciously pressed her hands and feet against his body and even brought her face close to his chest.
He Fengmian's body stiffened, and he quickly suppressed certain physical reactions, calmed his mind, and after a while, he managed to reduce his desires somewhat.
With such a beauty in his arms, he was too excited to sleep. He thought to himself that it would be wonderful to hold this little woman in his arms every day.
With the beauty in his arms, he even felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have resisted the marriage so much back then.
If I hadn't treated her that way back then, would they be together by now?
For the first time, General He couldn't sleep, not because he was thinking about battles or how to make his soldiers stronger, but because he was thinking about a woman.
A woman he wanted to spend his life with.
My mind kept wandering, thinking about how I had to travel tomorrow, which forced me to fall asleep.
Early in the morning, Shulan woke up in He Fengmian's arms, still a little dazed when she opened her eyes.
She vaguely remembered feeling cold, so she tried to burrow into warm places.
So, did he sneak into the general's bed?
As she was pondering this, her hand unconsciously reached out and touched it. Upon discovering the heat in her hand and the chest muscles, the wonderful feeling made her unconsciously touch it again.
He Fengmian, who had deliberately closed his eyes to avoid embarrassing her, was speechless.
I have an urge to grit my teeth.
Shulan, whose touch was so wonderful, finally realized what she had done.
I really want to slap my own hand.
It's one thing if falling asleep is unconscious, but how do you explain touching me like that?
Fortunately, she was relieved to see that he hadn't woken up. She slowly and deliberately moved her hips, wriggling like a caterpillar, trying to sneak over to her side while he was asleep.
Completely unaware, a certain general, who was already awake but had his eyes closed, was trying his best to regulate his breathing, just so she wouldn't be embarrassed to know that he had already woken up.
When she finally moved to the other side, her movements, which were enough to wake He Xiaobao, both of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Not to mention Shulan's pain, if this continued, He Fengmian could feel something stirring somewhere.
After all, men are prone to impulsive behavior in the morning.
Not letting her find out was already the greatest test of my willpower.
Shulan returned to her sleeping area. Although the sudden chill didn't make her shiver, she did feel the temperature drop rapidly.
Perhaps sensing her coldness, He Fengmian finally moved his eyelids, pretending to slowly wake up.
Seeing that he had woken up, Shulan felt guilty and quickly greeted him with a smile: "Good morning, General."
"Good morning." He Fengmian's voice was hoarse, as if he had just woken up from a deep sleep, but only he knew that he was forcing himself to be so quiet.
Now that I'm awake, I should get up quickly.
They were about to leave right after seeing the old priest.
At this moment, Naldonagy and his wife were outside, bringing them warm clothes.
Naldonagy said, "It's cold today, so wear more layers."
Shulan nodded: "Okay, thank you, Brother Naji."
Although they only stayed here for two days, the people of the Celestial Tribe treated them very well, especially Neldonagi, who really liked the family.
Naldonagy said cheerfully, "You're welcome, go and have breakfast."
Then, when Shulan went outside and saw the situation outside, she couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise: "Where's Qishuang?"
The air is crisp and still, and the dew turns to frost.
When the first frost appears, it will naturally get colder.
Seeing her surprised expression, Naldonagy smiled and explained, "It gets colder here earlier than outside. It might snow in a few days, which is why they say there will be extremely cold weather this year, and the cold wave will come earlier."
"It's snowing so early," she asked worriedly, "What will you do in the winter?"
Knowing she was concerned about them, Naldonagy said, "It's alright, we're used to this kind of weather and we were prepared."
Shulan was relieved and said, "If you need any help in the winter, you can come to the city to find me."
"good."
Knowing they were leaving today, breakfast was especially lavish.
Little Yima kept trying to jump into He Fengmian's arms, but her seven-year-old brother, Xiao Wumeng, held her back, and she kept chattering away, which was very cute.
After finishing breakfast, Shulan went to see the old priest, who was also drinking porridge there. When he saw the two of them coming over, he greeted them kindly: "Hello."
"Hello."
Shulan took his pulse and said, "I will write a new prescription. You can take this prescription for another seven days. But it is best not to catch a cold. If you do catch a cold, use this prescription."
She took out a prescription she had written long ago: "I have written down what kind of cold or heat is being treated on these prescriptions. As for the medical books, I will have Brother Naji bring them back. You can teach them to recognize Da Feng's characters."
Previously, the witch doctor had also consulted her, asking about some illnesses she didn't understand.
Although my mother-in-law is already sixty years old, she is very humble and genuinely wants to learn.
Although Neldonaghi was translating the whole time, he couldn't understand the language.
Shulan thought she had a few medical books that she could give to them as gifts, which made everyone in the tribe very happy.
She was initially worried that they wouldn't recognize the characters, but upon hearing that the old priest knew Da Feng's writing, she was naturally relieved.
The only pity is that Shulan went to see the fire tree hemp that Naldonaji mentioned, and it wasn't there, only something similar.
But she did manage to get the milk and seeds of the deadly poison, which was quite good.
The old priest was alright, and they were about to leave.
Then they saw two whole sleds full of meat, precious animal hides, and ginseng and other precious herbs.
The entire load consisted of two large sleds, prompting Shulan to exclaim, "This is far too valuable!"
Naldonaji replied, "The chieftain said we are already extremely grateful that Doctor Shu came to our tribe. We have nothing else, but this is the best thing we can offer, so please accept it without worry."
Shulan thought she had some food and medicine recipes to ward off the cold wave, and planned to write them down for him as a thank you gift, so she didn't say anything.
Then the two were reluctantly seen off by the crowd, and even the old clan chief said in broken Great Phoenix language, "May you live ten thousand years to open your pure life."
It means, come visit next spring.
Shulan understood and nodded, "Okay."
He waved goodbye to everyone.
