Chapter 485: Two Medicine Jars
The people in the front are about to go to war, so the people in the back naturally can't feel at ease.
Those whose family members have not gone to the battlefield have a better overall feeling. After all, the whole family is together and can share both good and bad times, so they can be considered lucky.
The situation was completely different for those families whose children had to go to the battlefield, especially the Qin family. All the male members had to go, and Old Madam Qin was extremely worried.
But despite this, Old Madam Qin did not tell anyone not to go.
Because she had personally experienced the injuries caused by war, Mrs. Qin understood their determination to contribute.
"Mom, there's no need to see me off. Let's go back." The three brothers said goodbye to their family members behind them, and they couldn't bear to see their old mother looking at their receding backs.
Madam Qin waved to them and said, "You guys go, I'll be back soon."
No one would feel happy in such a farewell scene, as someone would always turn around and leave first. Qin Guang hardened his heart and turned around with everyone.
Qin Feng's action was delayed a lot. He didn't want to leave his family, but at this moment he was still tied to people other than his family.
In order to protect the people here, Qin Xiangnuan will not go to the battlefield. All the people who need to be protected are behind her.
Qin Xiangnuan noticed Qin Feng's frequent gazes on her. Before deciding to leave, Qin Feng had already looked for Qin Xiangnuan once, but now he was clearly still worried about Xue'er.
Jiang Linyin learned about the existence of the Ninth Prince from An Feng's heart, so the existence of those people who were captured together with Yu Xueer was no longer of much significance.
The other party was not a core member of the mission and did not know much, so Xue'er was naturally useless. After Qin Feng learned about this, he immediately asked Jiang Lin to return her.
If Qin Xiangnuan wanted to restrain Qin Feng from going crazy, she would not agree to take on the task of taking care of Xue'er.
"Feng'er, hurry up and catch up!"
The moment Qin Feng looked into her eyes, Qin Xiangnuan knew what Qin Feng was saying to her, but because her family was there, it was inconvenient for her to say it. Qin Feng could only look at Qin Xiangnuan, hoping that she could understand.
However, Qin Xiangnuan did not respond to Qin Feng's gaze, causing him to fall behind the team.
The person walking in front couldn't help but look back at his family, and noticed that something was wrong with Qin Feng, so he shouted.
"Coming." Qin Feng replied casually without turning his head back. After taking a few steps, he caught up with Qin Guang and the others with difficulty.
"I don't know when we'll meet again."
After she could no longer see their figures, Old Lady Qin sighed softly.
"It will be quick." Qin Xiangnuan said, "If things go well, they will be able to come back to visit their relatives in a few months. It's not far from here, so it will be quick."
This was naturally comforting to hear, but there were too many variables on the battlefield, and none of them knew whether the person they would see in a few months would still be the same person they had left.
Old Madam Qin returned to her room, looking back every few steps. Perhaps because she was too emotional today, she fell ill as soon as she lay down.
Ying Niang discovered this when she was about to wake Old Madam Qin to get up for dinner, and she was shocked by what she saw.
"Miss Third, is the old lady okay?" Ying Niang asked nervously.
Qin Xiangnuan put away the silver needles at hand and smiled at Yingniang, "It's okay, grandma is always too worried. So many people left today, and it makes grandma sad."
"This... there's nothing we can do about it." Ying Niang could understand. She was still worried about the undercurrent at this moment, and she didn't know what the undercurrent was like far away in the capital at this moment.
"I will take good care of the old lady." Ying Niang said after collecting her thoughts.
"Thank you for your hard work, Ying Niang." Qin Xiangnuan said to Ying Niang with a smile, "But you don't have to worry too much about Grandma. We have so many people looking after her, so you have to take good care of yourself too."
Qin Xiangnuan's words were naturally heartwarming. Ying Niang shook her head and said, "Third Miss, I'm fine."
Qin Xiangnuan remained silent in response to her mother's words.
Next, Qin Xiangnuan did not write a prescription for Ying Niang, but went to decoct the medicine for Old Madam Qin herself. Ying Niang could only follow behind her and could not help much.
After arriving at the kitchen, Ying Niang saw that there was still a jar of medicine and asked who it belonged to.
But as soon as she asked, Ying Niang thought she knew, "It's that Xue'er's, right?"
As expected, Qin Xiangnuan nodded.
"Miss Third, I really feel sorry for Miss Li. Young Master Qin really has no vision. Between Miss Li and Xue'er, no one with a discerning eye would choose Xue'er." Ying Niang said indignantly.
Qin Xiangnuan listened calmly and spoke leisurely, "This just reflects the differences between people. Xue'er was chosen by my cousin, and he's the one who takes care of her, whether she feels good or bad.
"That's... that's true." Ying Niang sighed, "I won't say more. If I say too much, I'll seem narrow-minded."
"How could that be?" Qin Xiangnuan chuckled, "You're just worried."
Ying Niang judged Qin Feng's behavior from an outsider's perspective, but it was hard to say whether this kind of thing was right or wrong.
After that, Ying Niang didn't mention Xue'er anymore, and the topic naturally fell on Old Madam Qin.
"The old lady has been busy all her life." Ying Niang sighed, "For each of you young people, the old lady Qin has been worried about you endlessly."
"Grandma's temper is really heartbreaking." Qin Xiangnuan said.
Ying Niang nodded, "Life is unstable, and I can only let the old lady worry about me."
"It's good to have someone like this who cares about you." Qin Xiangnuan said with a smile while fanning the firewood lightly.
Ying Niang listened and watched. The fire under the medicine jar flickered with Qin Xiangnuan's movements, just like human life, representing the destiny at different periods.
The medicine took a long time to be boiled. Qin Xiangnuan and Ying Niang each carried the medicine bowl and went in different directions.
At this time, Liu and Zou were accompanying Old Madam Qin. Because they were afraid that the children's noise would disturb Old Madam Qin, they let them go and play by themselves.
At the same time, the place Qin Xiangnuan arrived at was extremely lively, unlike the quiet place where Old Lady Qin lived.
"Big sister, why is this sister in my brother's room? Who is she?" Qin Xiangning asked, pointing at the person who could not hide her sickness.
Qin Xiangnuan placed the medicine bowl high up before turning to answer Qin Xiangning's question, "This is your elder brother's good friend. He's sick, so he has to stay here for now."
Qin Xiangning nodded, not quite understanding.
Qin Xiangnuan rubbed her head and asked, "Why did you come here?"
"Beibei said he wanted to take us on an adventure." Nuan Yang answered first.
Qin Xiangnuan understood that Qin Xiangning had been fascinated by picture books recently. He must have picked them up from somewhere. Qin Xiangnuan smiled and said, "You guys are quite practical."
Qin Xiangning didn't understand what Qin Xiangnuan said, but that didn't stop her from thinking that Qin Xiangnuan was praising her.
