Chapter 994: Obedient and Soft

Yin Huaixi felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He felt numb. Even every strand of hair on his head was covered in electricity. How could he bear to say anything harsh?
He tried to convince her with logic. “I’m not worried that you’ll be a burden. It’s just that the front line battlefield is very dangerous, and the conditions are simple and very difficult..
Even men like them in the army couldn’t take it, let alone this little girl, who had grown up in a noble family.
“I’m not afraid of suffering.” Yu Youyao pouted, her voice soft and sweet. “Moreover, I’m very useful. The incense medicine I made previously played a very important role in preventing and treating the epidemic. I’ve thought about it and think that it should be quite useful on the battlefield.”
Yin Huaixi held his breath and suddenly understood. Accompanying him to the front line was not a whim of Yu Youyao.
Instead, she had thought about it carefully.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, she suddenly became interested in all kinds of ordinary incense recipes. She spent more time in the incense shop than before.
Indeed!
Yu Youyao continued, “The incense medicine that’s commonly used in the autumn and winter seasons can simply remove filth, expel evil, eliminate the cold, get rid of humidity, warm the body, nourishing the essence, and refresh the mind.”
“Incense that is used to remove filth can clean the environment, making it difficult for germs to grow.”
“Evil-repelling incense medicine can expel cold and evil. It can guard against the wind and induce sweat.”
“It’s cold-repelling and moisture-dispersing. It can dissolve Qi and prevent cold illnesses.”
“It can warm the body, nourish the essence, and refresh the spirit. All the incense medicines have the effect of nourishing the body and nourishing the mind. ”
The little girl was so straightforward that even people who did not know much about incense medicine could understand what she meant.
Yin Huaixi became serious.
The environment on the battlefield was far worse than the refugee camp. In a situation where they lacked medical treatment and medicine, many soldiers suffered from physical pain because of the harsh battlefield environment and bitterly cold weather.
Yu Youyao said, “For example, incense medicine, which can eliminate filth and expel evil, can reduce the worsening of injuries and infection to a certain extent. Incense medicine that eliminates cold and dissipates moisture can nourish the blood and promote blood circulation. It can accelerate the healing of wounds. Coupled with incense medicine that can warm the body, nourish the essence, and refresh the mind can also nourish the body.”
Yin Huaixi’s expression revealed a rare solemnity.
Yu Youyao was overjoyed and decided to add fuel to the fire. “The therapeutic effect of incense medicine is to silently seep into the body by breathing it in through the mouth and nose, as well as the expansion of the pores in the body. It’s smooth and soundless. It’s about the words ‘adjustment’, ‘treatment’, and ‘nourishing’, not ‘curing’. Therefore, the effect can’t be effectively reflected on the injured. However, during the ‘curing’ process, the incense medicine can play a very good catalytic and supplementary role. When layered together, the effect can often be greater.”
She chattered on and on. It was obvious that she had thought about this a lot.
Yin Huaixi was almost convinced.
“These are all the most basic and ordinary incense medicines. The medicinal herbs and spices used are also very common. During this period of time, I’ve improved the incense prescription and further streamlined it. The optimization effect will greatly reduce the consumption of medicinal herbs, allowing more injured soldiers to receive more appropriate treatment, regardless of whether their injuries are serious or light.”
At this point, her reasons were already very sufficient. If she weren’t Yu
Youyao, who was the person at the top of his heart, he would definitely agree.
Yin Huaixi felt a lump in his throat. “But I don’t…” He didn’t want her to go to the front line and face any danger. He didn’t want her to see the bloodiest and cruelest side of the war.
“Don’t say that.” Yu Youyao suddenly leaned forward and reached out her delicate index finger to gently cover his lips. “I didn’t do all this for you.”
She chuckled, but there was nothing in her voice. There was a hint of mischief in her voice. “The old people in the North call me a living Bodhisattva and worship me at home. No matter how hard their lives are, they don’t forget to burn an incense stick every day and sincerely pray for me. I’m not a clay Buddha in a temple who has her eyes closed. I’m a living person. I’ve opened my eyes.”
Since she had opened her eyes and seen the suffering of all living beings, how could she stay out of it?!
She would do what she could.
Moreover, she and Yin Huaixi were already inseparable. They would share honor and disgrace.
It was one thing not to be able to help. Since she could help, she couldn’t stay out of it.
Yin Huaixi suddenly held her hand, which was blocking his mouth, and kissed it impudently. He said hoarsely, “Okay!”
“What are you doing?!” Yu Youyao was shocked. Her face couldn’t help but burn. She quickly wanted to retract her hand, but she didn’t. “Let go quickly, or I’ll ignore you in the future…”
Yin Huaixi held her hand and refused to let go, but he did not act impudently anymore.
Yu Youyao blushed and tried to struggle free, but she couldn’t, so she stopped struggling. “I’ve thought about it. Medicinal herbs and spices that are made with spiritual dewdrop…”
“No.” Before she could finish speaking, Yin Huaixi interrupted her in a low voice. “At the moment, we don’t know what bad consequences there will be if we use too much spiritual dewdrop. You can’t take the risk.”
Things that were too mysterious were often terrifying. The effect of the spiritual dewdrop could not be said to be heaven-defying, but it was still a rare spiritual item in the world.
Whatever was given by the heavens had to be taken. Only then would heaven and earth maintain their balance.
Whatever one obtained, one would often pay more.
Yu Youyao quickly said, “Didn’t you guess previously that the more good deeds I did, the more spiritual dew there would be? As the sweet potatoes were gradually promoted and planted, the spiritual dew produced every day had already reached more than 30 drops. Some time ago, I tried to increase the use of the spiritual dew every day, but my body didn’t feel uncomfortable. The amount of spiritual dew produced every time didn’t decrease, so I guessed…” “Yu Youyao.” Yin Huaixi grabbed her wrist, his face ashen. “You didn’t discuss it with me. We had an agreement previously that you can’t make decisions about the use of the spiritual dewdrop…”
“I…” Yu Youyao felt a little guilty. She opened her mouth, wanting to explain.
Yin Huaixi asked in a low voice, “When did it start?”
His tone was heavy, as if a storm was brewing, and his face was dark.
Yu Youyao was a little afraid. She shrank her neck and lowered her head like a little quail. “A few days before the Dragon Boat Festival. It was the first day of May.”
She glanced at him from the corner of her eye. Perhaps because she was too
guilty, as soon as her gaze met his, her eyes seemed to have been stung by a bee. Before she could see anything clearly, she panicked and quickly retracted her gaze. She straightened her back, crossed her legs, and sat upright, looking obedient.
She had been like this since she was young. Every time she felt guilty, she would look obedient and soft. She was sure that his heart would soften and she couldn’t bear to really criticize him.
Yin Huaixi was helpless and angry.
On the first day of May, the last batch of refugees in Longcheng’s camp was about to be sent to the resettlement place. The national policies issued by the Imperial Court were also completely implemented..
