Chapter 368 Timely Rain
Ye Hua lowered her head halfway through her sentence.
Many of her things were given to her by Ye Wan, and now she feels guilty about giving them away to others.
She heard that Nanzhao was short of food, so she wanted to do her part. She wanted Feng Xinshui to win and didn't want him to die.
“Okay, I’ll think of a way,” Ye Wan agreed immediately.
Ye Hua couldn't help but feel grateful. "Little sister, thank you so much."
"There's no need for thanks among family members. I'm actually very happy that you came to me." Ye Wan usually sides with her relatives regardless of right or wrong, as long as her family doesn't betray her.
"Where's Second Sister? What have you been busy with lately?"
Ye Cao hasn't visited the princess's residence for quite some time.
"She's also busy reading. She said she didn't read enough books in the past, and she won't be able to catch up with us in the future."
Ye Hua felt that the sisters were able to live such a life now entirely because of Ye Wan.
Life is so good, it often feels unreal.
"Ask your second sister if she wants to go to Jiangnan. If she does, she can go with Qing Shuang."
Ye Wan had wanted to go before, but now that she has a baby and has a lot to do every day, she doesn't feel like going anymore.
After asking Ye Cao, she really wanted to go.
Having spent the first half of her life confined to her courtyard, Ye Cao wants to travel around and experience different customs and cultures in the second half of her life.
Lin Anyuan arrived while Daya and Yecao were packing their things.
"I'm going to Nanzhao."
"Why so suddenly?" Ye Wan asked in surprise.
Lin Anyuan's expression was somewhat grave. "General Wei has been injured. He has broken a leg and may not be able to fight anymore."
Poisoning could be fatal.
Nanzhao is a tough nut to crack; there are too many poisonous creatures there. Lin Anyuan plans to tackle it himself.
"this……"
Ye Wan knew that war was no child's play, but she still couldn't calm down when she heard that someone she knew had been seriously injured.
When are you leaving?
"We'll set off tomorrow."
"I'll go pack your things." Ye Wan didn't have time to ramble and packed everything she could carry, including things that could save her life, for Lin Anyuan.
Are we not going to let Lin Anyuan go? That's definitely impossible.
"This is an antidote pill; General Wei might find it useful."
The medicine inside was all from her space, made into pills by Hui Gu, so its effects are definitely better than ordinary medicine.
That night, the two lay together, and Ye Wan took the initiative to hug Lin Anyuan.
"Lin Anyuan, you must come back safely, and bring Sanya back safely too. Mingqian and I are waiting for you at home."
"good."
"..."
Lin Anyuan left in a hurry; by the time some people learned of the news, he was already on his way.
Ye Wan prepared some things to visit the Wei family.
Old Madam Wei and Madam Wei had already received the news. They didn't show any sadness on their faces, but a closer look revealed that they were a little tired.
"Madam, Madam."
Madam Wei held Ye Wan's hand, which was a little cold, and said anxiously, "You've only been out of confinement for a short time, why are you running around everywhere? The weather is freezing cold, you mustn't catch a cold."
It's the coldest time of winter now, and the roads are all icy.
"I'm perfectly healthy and strong. I didn't feel a bit of wind when I went out." Ye Wan had a rosy complexion and had taken good care of herself throughout her postpartum period.
"You came because of my son, right?"
Upon arriving at the main hall, Madam Wei got straight to the point.
"Madam, don't be sad. General Wei is a lucky man, and Heaven will always protect him." Ye Wan's words of comfort were rather dry.
The two families are on good terms, so she had to come; if she did come, they would have to entertain her.
"What's there to be sad about? I'm used to it," said Madam Wei calmly.
“The men of the Wei family have all died on the battlefield for generations. From the day I married into the Wei family, I was prepared to be a widow.”
"I'm lucky I didn't become a widow. I have a son and a grandson. Now I'm just hoping my grandson can get married."
Ye Wan paused for a moment, "The old lady is very insightful."
Madam Wei sighed deeply, "What can we do if we can't figure it out? We should eat and drink as usual. In war, someone always has to sacrifice."
"If he's not my son, he's someone else's son. Even ordinary people's children are the apple of their parents' eyes. Whose child isn't a child?"
"Compared to those sons who died on the battlefield, my son is already incredibly lucky to have survived."
The news that came back was that General Wei was injured, and the Wei family was unaware of the poisoning.
Ye Wan pondered for a moment before speaking, “Madam, I don’t know if you like tea. I didn’t bring any tea leaves with me today. I dried some fruit in the autumn. When I have some free time, you can have a taste. It’s nothing expensive.”
Ye Wan then had the maid bring over the two small food boxes.
It contained some common dried fruits, mixed with some from her space.
Such a perceptive person, and wholeheartedly loyal to the emperor and patriot, deserved a good ending in Ye Wan's private message.
"As for the treatment of those disabled veterans, I'd like to bring that up again."
Madam Wei laughed, "You are a good one. Over the years, there haven't been many women I admire, and you are number one."
“From now on, these people will no longer need to be supported by my Wei family, and everyone’s life will get better and better.”
Madam Wei lowered her head, tears streaming down her face.
The Wei family, though a general's family, used to live a very difficult life, sometimes going ten days or half a month without even a meal of meat and vegetables. It was only after Prince Jing entered the capital two years ago and Lin Anyuan and Ye Wan took over the care of the wounded and disabled veterans that the Wei family's situation improved.
From now on, my in-laws won't have to worry about me anymore.
After Ye Wan returned, she went to the palace again and reported that Emperor Jing had raised the treatment of the wounded and injured soldiers again.
These people have brought this country to this state; they deserve to be cared for in their old age.
Where would this money come from? Emperor Jing would naturally try to squeeze more money out of the emperor.
When the news spread, Ye Wan was scolded quite a bit, but she pretended not to hear it and went about her business as usual behind closed doors.
Days passed by like this. Since Ye Wan finished her postpartum confinement, she received many invitations from various families.
Ye Wan pushed away everyone she could, aiming to offend no one.
...
...
Nanzhao.
Wei Shitou has been poisoned and unconscious for half a month. His cheeks have visibly sunken and taken on a lifeless color.
"Lord Feng, please think of something quickly! If this continues, General Wei's life will be in danger."
The poison was so strange that the army doctors couldn't find a cure, and the patient's right leg was already showing signs of necrosis.
"I used a type of Gu worm from our region on General Wei, which can slow down the spread of the poison. It's already the limit that it's lasted this long..."
Feng Xinshui gritted his teeth, his eyes were dark-rimmed. He had been fighting without sleep for the past few days.
The terrain of Nanzhao is complex and full of poisonous creatures. This is his only chance to take revenge, so Feng Xinshui must be on her guard.
With Wei Shitou poisoned and the army missing its commander, the situation was very unfavorable for the war effort.
The only person present who could decide General Wei's leg injury was his son, Wei Ye.
Unfortunately, Wei Ye and San Ya had an important mission elsewhere and couldn't come back.
"Don't hesitate any longer, cut off General Wei's leg, maybe he can still be saved!"
"Losing a leg is better than being dead."
The military doctor glanced at the deputy generals in the tent, and just as he was about to take action, an urgent report came in.
"Report! General Lin has arrived!"
