The alcohol was developed by Lin Yi and the workshop staff. Although she provided the formula, it was still quite impressive that they were able to develop it.
Xiao Yubai nodded, "Thank you, Madam. Then arrange for one to come over. He doesn't need to stay here all the time. As long as he can train someone who is better than the military doctor in the camp, that will be fine."
If their camp had a good doctor, the number of deaths could be greatly reduced.
"I'll write to Huahua tomorrow and ask her to send one over."
"Let Wenshi come over too. I've already told the strategist and the others that I'll give the military tally to Wenshi in the future, and he'll be my godson from now on." He said this a few days ago, and although the strategist and the others didn't understand, they still listened to him.
They also said that once they have trained a suitable adjutant, they will retire and return to their hometown to see their parents and relatives.
He thought that was fine, but he told them to wait for the scholars to arrive before selecting a suitable person, and to cooperate with the scholars more in the next few years.
An Shuyi paused for a moment while bandaging her hands. "I've made up my mind."
“I made the decision long ago. These past few years, I’ve wished I could stay by your side every day, but I was always worried about real soldiers. Now that Wen Shi has taken over, and he’s your son, I’m very satisfied.”
"Alright, I'll write a letter tomorrow and have him come." As for how to get the soldiers to submit after he arrives, that's the civil official's job.
"It's all packed up. I'll have a soldier call the strategist." He said, then went out to call a soldier to fetch the strategist.
Pick up the blood-stained clothes and bandages from the ground, put them in a basin, and throw them away tomorrow.
Before long, the strategist rushed over, "Greetings, General's wife!"
An Shuyi nodded, "You two can talk." Then she walked out of the tent.
"My lord, what brings you here?" the strategist asked. "Could it be that you concealed something from the general's wife, and she found out, and is therefore blaming you?"
“I told you this wouldn’t work, and you still did it,” serves you right.
Xiao Yubai glared at him. "No, it's because my wife has some excellent wound medicine. I shamelessly asked for some, and it's right next to you. You can find a few more people to give it to those who are seriously injured."
"As for the army doctor, give him some silver and tell him that the war is over now and those barbarians won't dare to invade for the next few years, and let him go home."
"My lord, we cannot let the army doctor leave just because we have the lady's medicine. There are no doctors with medical skills who have come all the way to the border. What will happen to the wounded soldiers if he leaves?" the strategist said.
"Put it down!" Xiao Yubai raised his hand to quiet him down. "Don't worry, a doctor will come in a few days. He's a bit young, but very skilled." If his wife said he was young, then he must be young. He should remind them first so as not to offend anyone later.
"I understand, sir. I'll make the arrangements right away. But is this medicine really effective?"
"You may not believe me, but you can't distrust my wife. Use less, don't use it all up, this is all."
"Yes, sir. I'll go down now. You go ahead with your work." The strategist hurriedly left with the box in his arms.
An Shuyi waited for him to leave before entering the tent. "Have you eaten?" She hadn't eaten yet.
Xiao Yubai shook his head, "We haven't eaten yet. My wife and I will have some." He knew that his wife had plenty of food.
I didn't know about the previous ones, but in the past few days, she has given a lot of meat to the cook, which has been cooked into dishes and placed with the madam.
“Okay.” An Shuyi went over and helped him sit down in a chair before taking out several dishes: stewed tiger meat, braised pork, stir-fried cabbage, ginseng wine, and two large bowls of rice. “Eat up.”
"Madam, I don't actually need any supplements." He's a man full of vigor; if he eats these, he won't be able to sleep tonight, and it'll be dawn in the blink of an eye.
If he weren't injured, he could have found ways to alleviate the pain, but now that he's injured, there's nothing he can do.
"You have such a big wound, eat more to nourish yourself, and it will heal in a few days."
Xiao Yubai had no choice but to force himself to eat. Fortunately, there was still cabbage. He didn't eat much meat, and he only dared to drink one cup of ginseng wine.
After finishing the meal, there was still a lot of food left on the table, so I took a cabbage and ate it. "I'll keep these vegetables and heat them up for you to eat tomorrow."
"Madam, I can actually eat something light; there's no need for meat."
"Then let's change the soup tomorrow, ginseng chicken soup."
"Thank you, Madam." It's not even as good as cabbage soup; it's too bland.
Seeing his gloomy face, An Shuyi couldn't help but laugh. She poured water into a basin in the corner and washed his face, brushed his teeth, and washed his feet before helping him to bed.
After he lay down, she washed her face and brushed her teeth, took the hairpin off her hair, and said, "Close your eyes."
"It's closed."
Seeing that he had closed his eyes, she changed into her pajamas, blew out the light, and lay down in bed. "Don't turn over at night, or you'll hurt your wound."
"Don't worry, Madam, I promise I won't do anything rash."
The two closed their eyes to sleep, and the night passed quickly. The next morning, An Shuyi washed up, changed her clothes, and then gave him water to wash up. After breakfast, she helped him change his dressing.
"Madam, this medicine was just applied yesterday, should it be changed?"
"Of course you need to. Look for yourself, isn't the wound better than last night? Don't worry, it will be healed in a few days, but you'd better rest in bed."
"Okay, I'll just rest and recover for the next few days and won't go anywhere."
After changing his medicine, An Shuyi began writing a letter. Once she finished, she gave it to the secret guards, who used eagles to deliver messages quickly.
However, Hua Hua hasn't sent her any letters since she arrived, and she doesn't know if Xiao Zili hasn't issued an imperial decree for them to return to the capital.
Several more days passed, and Xiao Yubai's injuries had almost healed before she received Hua Hua's message, saying that the Emperor had issued an edict ordering them to return to the capital, and that the doctor she wanted, Lin Yanyu, had already set off.
He was supposed to leave a few days ago, but it wasn't safe for him to come alone, so we asked him to go to Wenshi's place first, and then the two of them would come together.
"Madam, when the scholar arrives, we will go to the capital."
An Shuyi nodded, "Okay, this way your injury can heal a bit more." Although the wound has closed up, it's still such a big opening, and if it's pulled, it could reopen.
Xiao Yubai thought about his injury. He hadn't expected that it would be almost completely healed in less than ten days, leaving only a scar. In the past, such a serious injury would have taken several months to heal.
Even the strategist and his team were amazed, never expecting that wounds could be treated this way. They were even more excited when they learned that the new doctor could also suture wounds.
If that's the case, will they still have anything to fear in future wars?
Four days later, a soldier came to report that two people had come looking for the general. Upon hearing this, An Shuyi knew that Wen Shi and Yan Yu had come, so she stood up and went outside.
Seeing how anxious she was, Xiao Yubai followed behind her.
"Grandma An!"
An Shuyi had just stepped outside the camp when she heard Yan Yu call out to her, "Hey, you must be tired these past few days?"
"Grandma An, I'm not tired. I'll ride with Uncle Shi, so I don't have to ride by myself." He doesn't know how to ride a horse yet.
