Chapter 235 I Want to Join the Army
Yun Xi didn't want him to dwell too much on this question, so she asked something else instead.
"How are things getting ready?"
Ying Tianchen knew what she was asking and replied, "We already have nearly 100,000 people."
Yun Xi was shocked by the number and her eyes widened.
"Why are there so many suddenly?"
Ying Tianchen was amused by her cute appearance and pecked her nose lightly.
"During this period, Lu Boda led his troops to suppress bandits everywhere, and also dealt with Japanese pirates at sea, and suffered heavy casualties."
Yun Xi heard the hidden meaning in his words.
"Were all these lost soldiers sent to Zhuya Island?"
"Smart. Not only will this help expand our team, but it will also allow them to collect a pension."
Yun Xi's eyes sparkled, "Not only that, General Lu can recruit soldiers openly."
"That's right." Ying Tianchen raised the corner of his mouth. He knew that his Xier understood everything very quickly.
Yun Xi smiled and said, "Let me guess, those pirates and Japanese pirates who have been invading us are all your own people in disguise."
Ying Tianchen scratched her nose and said, "I really can't hide anything from you."
"Of course, who am I? I'm very smart." Yun Xi Wang Po boasted about herself while selling melons.
"Haha, yes, my Xier is the smartest."
Yun Xi scolded him, "Who is your Xier? Don't talk nonsense."
Ying Tianchen leaned his head closer, forehead against forehead, "Don't deny it, if you are not from my family, then whose family can you be from?"
"I am my own family."
"Yes, that's right, it's my own home. My own home is my home..."
The two of them argued meaninglessly, their voices becoming lower and lower, and slowly, not only their foreheads, but also their noses and mouths were slowly getting closer.
Breathing intertwined...
"Knock Knock-"
After an unknown amount of time, there was a knock on the door. The two separated, their cheeks flushed.
Yun Xi quickly stood up, left Ying Tianchen's legs, and sat back on her stool.
"Come in." Yun Xi tried her best to make her voice sound calm.
He even pretended to pick up the cup on the table and pour water.
"Miss, the second young master said he wants to see the prince for something."
Yun Xi and Ying Tianchen looked at each other, wondering in their hearts whether Yun Yan really had something to discuss with him.
The answer is self-evident. It is most likely to be an excuse to get Ying Tianchen away from Yun Xi.
Ying Tianchen stood up and said, "I'll go see what my second brother wants me to do."
"I'll go with you." Yun Xi pursed her lips and smiled secretly.
Seeing her gloating, Ying Tianchen felt helpless. It's okay, the wedding day is not far away.
The two found Yun Yan, and they didn't expect that this man really had something important to do.
"You want to join the army?"
Ying Tianchen and Yun Xi were both very surprised.
"That's right. I heard from Uncle Guo that the military camp is the best place to train people. I want to go."
"Brother, have you thought it through?"
Yun Yan was very determined, "I've thought it through."
"Do mom and dad and grandpa agree?"
Yun Yan scratched his head, "I haven't told them yet. I just discussed it with my eldest brother, and he supports me."
Yun Xi shrugged, "Don't expect me to help you talk to your parents and grandfather. If you can convince them to agree yourself, I will support you."
Yun Yan said coquettishly, "Little sister, please help my second brother. Dad, Mom and Grandpa listen to you the most."
Yun Xi frowned, "Second brother, do you know that if you join the army, you won't be able to come back for a year or two? If there is a war, you will have to rush forward without hesitation, which is very dangerous. Personally speaking, I don't want you to go."
She knew in her heart that it would not be long before Ying Tianchen and his men would rebel, and by then the court would be in turmoil and smoke of war would spread everywhere. If his second brother joined the army, he would be involved, and danger would be everywhere.
It was obvious that Yun Yan had thought it through carefully. "I know, little sister, but a man should have great ambitions. If I really need to rush forward, I will not back down. I also hope that I can earn some achievements with my own abilities and become a support for my family and you."
Yun Xi suddenly understood that his second brother did this not because of any ambition, but because of himself.
She was going to marry Ying Tianchen, the King of the South, but her family was from a farming family, and they also wanted to make their family strong to provide her with a backer.
But she doesn't need this at all. She is her own backer and the Yun family's backer. She doesn't want them to risk their lives for it.
"Brother, you don't have to take risks."
"Little sister, please help my second brother, okay?"
As he said this, he looked at Ying Tianchen, hoping that he could say something for him.
Ying Tianchen just said, "There's no rush for this, think about it carefully. Even if Second Brother wants to go, he has to wait until we get married. We still have time to think about it carefully."
Yun Xi thought about it and decided to put the matter on hold for the time being.
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye, it was June, and there were only about twenty days left until Yun Xi and Ying Tianchen's wedding.
During this period, Yun Xi continued to grow and store grain as usual, and sent several batches of grain to Ying Tianchen.
Ying Tianchen was wondering where she got so much high-quality food, but he didn't ask much.
What he hoped was that Yun Xi would take the initiative to tell him that he was waiting for that day.
In addition, Yun Xi also gave Ying Tianchen a lot of medicines, all of which were already prepared. Most of them were hemostatic and wound medicines, and there were also a lot of medicines for diarrhea and preventing colds.
These are the most needed medicines in the military camp.
Most of the herbs are grown in the space, and they are soaked in space well water during processing, so their medicinal effects are extremely good.
Ying Tianchen's understanding of Yun Xi's abilities has reached a new level.
After a period of rest, Zhu Shuyi's injuries healed.
He stayed in Yunjia Village, saying that the money for medicine and food during his recovery was given by the Yun family, and he stayed to repay their kindness.
Everyone said he was a top-ranked scholar, and Ying Tianchen was also optimistic about him, so Yun Xi agreed to keep him.
Zhu Shuyi's stepmother and four other people are still imprisoned in prison, and all their property has been awarded to Zhu Shuyi.
Zhu Shuyi simply sold his house and settled down in Yunjia Village.
He no longer went to Songhe Academy, but stayed in the village school in Yunjia Village.
Because he found that the teacher in the village school taught no worse than the teacher in Songhe Academy.
What Yun Xi was quite satisfied with was that since Zhu Shuyi stayed in Yunjia Village, the studies of Yun Yi, Yun Shuai and Mu Qingyuan had made rapid progress.
I have seen this man tutoring the three children privately many times. I have also seen him nodding his head and praising the three little ones.
"Yes, children can be taught."
Whenever Yun Xi heard such old-fashioned words, she couldn't help laughing.
The wedding day is approaching.
Recently, Xi always wants to keep Yunxi at home.
"Your wedding dress has never been touched. Your aunt has almost finished embroidering it. You have to embroider a few stitches yourself."
Generally, when a woman gets married, she will embroider her own wedding dress.
Yun Xi was not good at sewing, let alone embroidery. The wedding dress was made with complicated craftsmanship. The pattern was beautiful, but also extremely complicated. She could not embroider it.
Fortunately, Li has good embroidery skills and can help embroider the wedding dress.
But Yunxi also had to embroider a few stitches herself, as if she was making her wedding dress herself.
"I know, mother."
Yun Xihe obediently went to find Li, picked up the almost-embroidered wedding dress and embroidered it very carefully.
But not long after, Yun Xi was in tears as she watched Li stare in amazement.
"Aunt, can this... still be saved?"
