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

Chapter 1219 Famine and Natural Disaster 378

Mingyi:? ?

  seriously?

"Commander, I'd better wait for you outside." She is a girl after all. What's wrong with waiting for someone to take a bath in the tent?

Zhou Ting felt that he was not thorough enough and felt guilty, so he watched her take the two maids out of the tent. He sighed and went back to the inner tent to wash up, but he washed much faster than usual. He washed himself clean in a few seconds, put on clean clothes, and hurried outside the tent to see if anyone had left.

Mingyi was seen as soon as I looked out. She was standing in the shadow of another tent not far outside the tent. It was a shady place.

With joy and happiness spreading in his heart, he stared at the little girl in front of him, with a tenderness and doting in his eyes that he himself did not even notice; only he knew that his heart was filled with waves that could not be calmed for a long time.

"Shisheng."

Mingyi glanced at the Zhou people standing outside the tent and walked forward.

The soft voice brought him back to his senses from his obsession. He smiled gently and extended his hand to her, "Yiyi, come here."

Mingyi paused and tilted her head to look at him. At this moment, if he wasn't so dark, he would be as gentle as the elegant, gentle and thin young man when they first met. She continued to walk forward, came to him, put her hand in his palm, and he held it tightly.

Zhou Ting smiled gently and took her back to the tent. "What has Yi Yi done these days?"

"Go and learn from your teacher, study medical books, and research some gadgets; by the way, collect some fresh herbs. There are a lot of miscellaneous things to do in the military medical camp, and it's difficult to finish them all in a short time." Considering that he has been working so hard for so long, please be considerate of him and follow his words.

"Are you tired?" It was even tighter than what he had arranged when he was here.

She was a studious person, and she didn't live such a tight schedule because of his concerns. During the time he was away from the camp, she became furious.

"It's OK. There are more than 100,000 fewer soldiers in the barracks. There are special pills for minor illnesses, so there's no need for me and the teachers to help. These days, soldiers have brought back a lot of medicinal herbs from the deep mountains and old forests, including many precious ones, such as ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, wild ginseng, Panax notoginseng, black wolfberry, agarwood, Bletilla striata, Codonopsis pilosula, Astragalus membranaceus, Rhodiola rosea, Angelica sinensis, Polygonum multiflorum, and other good medicinal herbs."

Zhou Ting nodded as he listened, pulled her to sit at the table, and motioned for her to eat while talking.

After a short separation, he didn't care about the rule of 'don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping', and he could also throw Mingyi aside.

"I didn't expect there are so many good medicinal herbs in the mountains here. I was so envious and wanted to go into the mountains with them. Unfortunately, I have to study with a teacher, practice in daily life, and have a lot of things to do." When she said this, her tone was filled with regret and sorrow.

Good medicinal materials are precious to doctors, and they can be described as more than just expensive.

Mingyi spoke in a soft and gentle voice, which Zhou Ting found particularly comfortable. "If you want to go into the mountains, I'll accompany you. It just so happens that the Western Region has been conquered. We need to plan the attack on Ningguo later. You've been bored in the camp for a long time. I'll take you out to play after I've arranged everything in the camp."

"Really? You really want to take me out to play? I want to go back to Fucheng. I haven't visited Fucheng since I came here. I don't know what Fucheng is like and whether it is prosperous or not." She was full of expectations after getting his promise.

It can be seen that he is very bored.

Zhou Ting smiled secretly and said, "Really? I'll take you to Fucheng once I've made arrangements. If you want to go to the mountains, that's fine too. We can bring more people with us."

"Okay, it's settled." Mingyi happily picked up a piece of food for him with chopsticks, "Try it, this wild vegetable is called Purslane, and according to medical books, it has the effects of clearing away heat and dampness, detoxifying and reducing swelling, reducing inflammation, and quenching thirst; its seeds can improve eyesight, and this wild vegetable is sour and can be fed to livestock." As for other effects, she didn't say; Zhou Ting wouldn't understand even if she said it. For example, few people in the Republic of China understood the term "vitamin", let alone people today.

Zhou Ting picked up the purslane with chopsticks and took a closer look. He suddenly realized, "It turns out that its effect is so good. You can often see this kind of thing in the mountains of the northwest. You can also see it in farmlands. I wonder if it can be planted in large quantities. If it can, the horses will have another kind of grass to eat."

"It should be possible. They are not difficult to raise and can reproduce anywhere in the wild." Mingyi didn't know much about wild vegetables and didn't know how to grow them; but wild vegetables that could grow wildly in the wild should not be difficult to raise.

"Just right." Zhou Ting tasted it. It wasn't very delicious, but fortunately the seasoning neutralized the taste. What was valuable was that it had medicinal effects and could be fed to livestock. "It tastes okay. I'll have people collect more seeds. You don't have to plant them in the fields. You can just sprinkle the seeds on the ridges of the fields, or on the wasteland. Clean up the extra weeds, and it should be able to survive."

Mingyi had no objection. The Northwest Army was currently short of food and fodder, and the livestock in the barracks were also in short supply. Military rations had been mobilized from the Northwest twice recently, and if more were mobilized, the people would not be able to afford it.

Fortunately, the Western Regions were conquered, and in the future, this small country that produces grain, melons and fruits would support the Northwestern Army.

After dinner, Zhou Ting took her hand and went into the inner tent to talk. Chunxi, Chunmei and Ansan came in to clean up the mess.

The water used for washing was taken out and the leftovers on the table were sent away.

As soon as An San finished his work, Zhou Ting called over, "Pass the order, collect more seeds of Purslane, and those who don't know should follow those who know. There are also seeds of other wild vegetables, and collect all those you see by category."

"As you command." An San did not ask why he had to collect them, he just bowed and left.

He issued an order, and the generals conveyed it to the ten thousand, thousand, and hundred households below, and then to the soldiers below; in just half an hour, all the soldiers in the entire camp received the order to collect various wild vegetable seeds.

An San retired after completing his mission and returned to serve outside the tent.

Zhou Ting and Ming Yi were still talking about what they had seen and heard during the time when each other was away, and they chatted until the evening. The military camp had prepared a large number of grassland cattle, sheep, and pigs, as well as some vegetables and fruits, which were made into dishes by the kitchen team and served to everyone.

Some of the beef and mutton were roasted during the bonfire celebration banquet and given to the soldiers below as rewards.

Mingyi did not attend the celebration banquet. Her status did not allow her to show up in the military camp. Even if Zhou Ting invited her to go, she would have automatically avoided it.

At her age, she doesn't drink and isn't used to eating rough barbecue, so why bother spoiling her fun?

Instead, it was Yu Shiwei and others who took part in the fun, eating, drinking, and having fun; even the servants who came to help from the palace participated.

1. After a night of revelry and drinking, it was already late at night. When Zhou Ting left the celebration party, everyone was still in high spirits and excited, and ended up making noise all night long.

Zhou Ting walked back to the main tent and asked An San as soon as he sat down, "Is Master Cheng asleep?"

"Commander-in-chief, the lights in Master Cheng's tent have been turned off." There was no light from the oil lamp in the tent, so he must have gone to sleep, right?
