Quick wear: She has turned over the big guys from all walks of life

Chapter 1215 Famine and Natural Disaster 374

"Thank you, General Yunhui, for telling me." She stood up and bowed slightly to express her gratitude.

Her politeness, her composure and her independent thinking made General Yun Hui smile. "Mr. Cheng, you don't have to be polite. Before he left, the commander-in-chief repeatedly told me to take good care of you. This is what I should do."

"The commander's words are his. It's up to you to do what you want. I've been very comfortable in the barracks these days, thanks to General Yunhui's care. I understand everything."

General Yun Hui's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly understood why she had won the commander-in-chief's undivided favor.

A little girl who is less than ten years old can always maintain this steady and self-controlled attitude, neither humble nor arrogant, and know when to advance and retreat; this is not easy. Many middle-aged people in their thirties and forties cannot do this all the time, but she does it.

What is needed is not only the mind, but also enough wisdom.

It was hard to imagine that a little girl in her early eights could be so smart. At such a young age, she was as knowledgeable as Mr. Fan, had good martial arts skills, a good character, and acted in an orderly manner. She was even more calm than any of the noble ladies he had seen, and would be even more so when she grew up.

The saying that being a child may not necessarily be a good thing when you grow up does not apply to her.

"I don't deserve Master Cheng's behavior. I am just following your orders. I have sent you the message. I have other things to do and cannot stay for long. I will leave first."

"General Yunhui, take care."

After seeing the man off, Mingyi stared at his back in a daze. General Yunhui seemed different.

  The attitude of the military generals and civil officials around Chao Sheng towards her can be described in two words - indifferent!

Some generals even pretended not to see her when they saw her.

Although General Yun Hui was not so cruel, he had never shown any kindness to her; however, just now, she felt the kindness that he was intentionally exuding.

"Mr. Cheng, I have the blood-activating grass you requested."

When Chunmei came back, she saw her staring at one place in deep thought, and she couldn't help but feel curious.

Mingyi pulled herself back to her senses, turned around and smiled, "Thank you for the long trip. I don't have much to do here, so go and do your thing first."

"Yes."

Chunmei left the blood-activating grass behind and retreated respectfully. Although she was curious, she did not ask.

After everyone left, she took the blood-activating grass and walked to the experimental instrument. She wanted to make a hemostatic drug that would be very effective in stopping bleeding. In her conception, this hemostatic drug could quickly stop bleeding no matter how big the wound was, and it would have an anti-inflammatory effect and prevent the wound from decaying.

Although it was just a simple hemostatic drug, she knew that if the wound was too big and had many bacteria, improper treatment would cause the wound to rot and sepsis to occur, leading to various complications and even death. Therefore, the hemostatic drug she wanted to make had to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects and kill the bacteria infected in the flesh and blood, which was a difficult problem.

Given the extremely poor medical environment in ancient times, she even thought about distilling alcohol.

Making alcohol is not difficult, all you need is high-concentration liquor; she can do it right away and even make it right away.

But I wanted to make a hemostatic medicine that soldiers could take to the battlefield. Alcohol is inconvenient to carry, but powdered medicine is different. It can be used right after opening. It is not easy to get wet when wrapped in oil paper and can be used right after opening.

Huoxuecao has the effect of promoting blood circulation and relieving pain.

The blood-activating herb needs to be processed so that it can be neutralized with the medicinal properties of other herbs, so as to avoid conflicts in efficacy and prevent blood-activating herbs from causing metrorrhagia.

Once she started working, she devoted herself to the work, being oblivious to what was happening outside and only thinking about finishing it as soon as possible. By the time she finished making the first dose of hemostatic medicine, the light in the tent had already dimmed, and her body became stiff and sore if she moved the slightest bit.

"Is there anyone outside the tent?"

While stretching your muscles, don't forget to ask a question.

Tired, thirsty, and hungry, I wanted to eat something. "Master Cheng, I'm here."

"The servant is here too."

Chunxi and Chunmei walked into the tent together and saluted with a smile.

Mingyi nodded, "When did you come back?"

It was their routine to go to the military medical camp to help out every day, and today was no exception; looking at the dim sky outside, it seemed that they had been back for a while.

"I came back a quarter of an hour ago. I didn't disturb you because you were still busy." Chunmei smiled. "Mr. Cheng, would you like some hot food? The cooks left some food for us. I'll go and bring it to you."

"Okay, bring me some warm water. I'm thirsty." Feeling a little tired, she stood up and walked around. "I want some hot water, too. I want to take a bath. It's getting hotter day by day. I'm all sweaty."

"Yes, we will go right away. Please take a rest. We will be back soon."

After saluting again, the two of them left the tent and headed towards the cooks' camp. When they arrived, the centurion of the cooks' camp saw them and his face was full of smiles.

"Miss Chunxi, Miss Chunmei, you are here. The food is hot in the pot. I will bring it out to you." This man had a square face. He looked honest with a smile, but his eyes showed fatigue. He was not an honest man in the true sense.

Chunmei smiled and thanked him, "Then we'll have to trouble you, Centurion. We sisters also need some hot water for use and washing."

"Yes, we have them all." Centurion Xie smiled and led them to the kitchen built with wood. Because there were many soldiers, the kitchen used a long and curved construction method, with a large open space in the middle to store supplies and facilitate the flow of personnel.

Centurion Xie led them to two of the stoves and opened the lid of the steamer on the left stove. He brought out several dishes, including meat, vegetables and soup.

Chunmei and Chunxi saw that the color of the vegetables was not seriously changed, and nodded with satisfaction, "Thank you very much."

The two of them brought trays and put the food in. It took two trays to finish. Then came the hot water. Seeing that they were in a dilemma, Centurion Xie took the initiative to say, "The two girls go back first. I will bring someone to deliver the hot water later."

"Thank you again then."

The two of them were not very intelligent, so they naturally adopted Captain Xie's advice and went ahead with the food.

After returning to the tent, the food was served and Mingyi couldn't wait to have a bowl of egg drop soup. The sweet dew moistened her dry mouth, her throat felt better and she seemed to come back to life.

People who are not thirsty to a certain degree will not understand this feeling of rebirth. It is like a refreshing rain in the desert, feeling of renewed vitality.

"Comfortable!"

Ming Yi put down the bowl generously and smiled, "Have you eaten?"

"In reply to your question, sir, we servants have not had our meal yet."

"Then let's eat together." Mingyi sat down at the table.

Chunmei and Chunxi hesitated, "How can we, the servants, sit with you? Just wait until you finish your meal and give us the leftovers."

"Why go to such trouble? Go get two sets of bowls and chopsticks, quickly. I'm so hungry. This is an order, go quickly." He just wanted to eat quickly. His body was overloaded and he urgently needed food to replenish his energy.

The two little sisters hesitated for a moment, Chunmei responded promptly, and ran out.
