Chapter 299 Is it OK?
Ji Changying could see that his younger brother had done well in school at the county level, and he felt relieved.
But now that things have been decided, we should prepare some more things just in case.
My uncle has been studying for the past few decades and looks like a weak scholar. Whenever her father had something to do, it was always her mother and her who took care of him, and he never fought with anyone.
When the two of them get there, they are bound to have some bumps and bruises.
She had to find a way to get some protective gear for both of them.
In addition, the wound medicine that Ogawa mentioned is indeed indispensable...
After the news came down, the news that Liu Guizi had died of "horse stroke" in Lanxiang Pavilion was suddenly wiped out.
Lin had been living in fear for several days, fearing that someone would suspect her, and just as she breathed a sigh of relief, she received the news that Ji Ruofeng was going to the military camp for training.
She almost fainted from lack of breath, but she still forced herself to go and call back Ji Ruofeng, who was staying at someone else's house. "The village just announced that every household must send one person to the military camp for training."
Ji Ruofeng nodded: "I heard about it when I left Dahe's house."
"What do you think?" Lin was still a little worried about her son going there.
Ji Ruofeng was a little hesitant when he thought about being exposed to the wind and sun and having to fight hand-to-hand combat in the military camp, but then he remembered that there were only him and his mother left at home. If he didn't go, he couldn't let his mother go, right?
"I, I'll go! The military camp is pretty good. Maybe I can become stronger after going there for a few months." Ji Ruofeng pounded his chest, looking very responsible.
Lin's expression also softened a little as he said this: "Mother is very pleased."
Although I am very worried, every household must prepare the necessary things.
Every family was preparing for this event, and the whole village seemed to be bustling with activity.
Whenever you pass by a door, you can hear the sound of arguing coming from inside.
"Why should I go? My eldest brother is obviously the oldest in the family! He should be the one to go, not me!"
"Second brother, this is not right. My parents are old, and as the eldest son, of course I have to stay at home to take care of them. How can I take care of them if I go there?"
"You're talking nonsense! Do your parents really need you to take care of them? It would be the same if I were here..."
Most people know what this means. If they are alive, they naturally want to live well and no one wants to die.
Ji Changying entered the space.
She found several boxes of armor from the pile of weapons she had collected at Wuhe Mountain.
He rummaged around inside some more and found a box of soft armor, then tried his sword on it.
She didn't dare to use her full strength, so she controlled her hands and used only 30% of her strength, and the soft armor was barely broken.
"Three points of strength is about right. It's impossible for everyone to have the same strength as me, right?"
After all, Dad and Uncle were going to training, not to the battlefield. Ji Changying took out the soft armor and put it away, then went to find Old Huang to buy medicine.
"Buying medicine for wounds? Who in your family is going to the military camp?" As soon as the purpose of the visit was explained, Mr. Huang immediately realized that they were going to train soldiers.
"My father and my uncle."
Old Huang frowned: "What is your father doing there with his skinny body? He doesn't even have as much strength as your mother does."
"What else? Let my brother go? I'd like to go, but this isn't the Red Sleeves Army; women aren't allowed in! I could just pretend to be a man for a day or two, but how many months? If they find out, my whole family might lose their heads."
"You unlucky child! Who told you, a girl, to go with those stinky men?"
Thinking about her family's situation, if Ji Fengshou didn't go, only the younger one would go. Old Huang's brows relaxed again: "Okay, then I'll prepare some more for you."
Ji Changying approached with a playful smile: "When the time comes, please give me a good price."
Huang Lao rolled his eyes at her and said, "How can that be! I finally caught you, I'm going to make a killing from you!"
Ji Changying knew he was joking, so she handed him the two bottles of medicine she had on her back and asked with a smile, "Could you please help me see what kind of poison this is?"
Huang Lao took it, opened it, and smelled it: "Where did it come from?"
"I recruited a subordinate, but he was poisoned and controlled by this. I thought if I could find a way to cure it, wouldn't it be easier to use it in the future?"
Huang Lao sniffed them one by one and said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's the Soul-Breaking Powder. When it strikes, my eyes blur, I suffer from vomiting, diarrhea, and constant abdominal pain. My heart races, and I feel weak all over. I want to cut myself open, rip out my intestines, and wash them out to feel better, but I don't even have the strength to cut myself open."
"These two bottles of medicine have different effects. One is strong, and the other is slightly weaker. But this person is really ruthless! The herbs used to make this poison are not cheap. How can ordinary people afford it? Who drugged him?"
Ji Changying glanced at Old Huang's curious expression and said, "The person who drugged him previously sent people to search my house for something, but they couldn't find anything and alarmed my father and my mother, so they wanted to kill us to silence us. I finally tracked it down and found out that it was an old maid from the palace. She has been handed over to Prince Ping."
The relaxed expression on Mr. Huang's face disappeared: "Going to your house to look for something? What is it?"
"How should I know? I still want to ask!"
It was still unclear whether the jade pendant incident was a good thing or a bad thing, nor was it known what the other side's attitude towards her mother was. Ji Changying did not dare to talk about it easily.
If the other party thinks her mother is a stain, isn't that just asking for death?
Originally I just suspected there was a connection, but once the things were handed over, it would be irrefutable evidence.
Mr. Huang suddenly became a little irritable, standing there pointing his finger at the sky and cursing: "It's such a trivial matter, and it's taken him so long to figure it out. Is he really capable?! I told you not to look for a man like that, but you insisted on looking for one! Now, even your own child..."
Halfway through his speech, Mr. Huang suddenly stopped talking when he saw Ji Changying looking at him with shining eyes and a gossipy look on her face.
"Alright, alright, I'll research this medicine for you and give it to you when it's ready."
Ji Changying looked curious: "Why didn't you say what you just said? What's the matter? Can anyone do it?"
Mr. Huang had a constipated expression on his face: "Go away, don't waste my time here!"
Ji Changying was pushed outside by Mr. Huang, and his little thatched cottage was closed with a bang.
"Okay, I'll come and talk to you next time!"
There was a mischievous look in Ji Changying's eyes. She stretched her neck and shouted, and then a sound of something falling to the ground was heard from inside.
She ran away with a snicker.
Soon the day of farewell arrived.
Ji Fengyi and Ji Fengshou wore soft armor inside their clothes.
