Chapter 557: Extra Meal

Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

MO Ruyue felt that the Great General’s tone was still acceptable. He directly addressed her as ‘me’. Even his smile and tone had become better.

“Of course. General) please come this way. Let’s talk as we walk.”

“You’ve been wearing this cotton-padded jacket until now. It’s light and warm.

I don’t need to introduce it to you. You should know it better than me.”

“Half of the cotton-padded jacket was made of cotton that had just been produced this year, and the other half was duck down.”

“Those duck down feathers had been specially soaked in herbs to prevent insects and stink.”

“Even if it was wet with water, it would be easy to dry. The fluffiness would not be as rigid as pure cotton when it came into contact with water.”

“Since it’s for the soldiers to wear, I won’t accept the black heart money. I’ll just collect my own cost and treat it as adding warmth to the soldiers on the battlefield.”

“The cost of a cotton coat is fifty copper coins.”

Not only the general, but even the military counselor felt that the price was not expensive at all. It could even be said to be cheap.

“Beloved, is 50 copper coins enough for such a good cotton-padded jacket?”

Although Gu Ying was not very good at doing business, he was also a businessman and knew a little about this aspect.

Not to mention anything else, just the fabric of this cotton coat was worth ten to twenty copper coins. In addition to the cotton, duck down, and labor, was it really not a loss?

“I’ve already said it and I won’t change it. Fifty coins for one. General, if you want it, write a written agreement.”

MO Ruyue knew very well whether fifty wen was a loss or not.

In fact, it was not a loss. For example, the duck down came from the nursing home and did not cost her. Those veterans said that they also wanted to do their part for the country.

At this moment, not only the general, but even the military advisor was shocked when he saw the 100,000 cotton coats. This Princess Ming Yue really came to deliver them cotton coats!

The Great General was not a person who cared about his face. He personally checked more than ten pieces, and they were all exactly the same as what he was wearing. The military counselor also checked more than ten pieces, and the results were all the same.

The general wrote the IOU very readily. It was actually an IOU for 100,000 cotton-padded clothes.

MO Ruyue waved at the two thousand soldiers who had escorted her here, asking them to help put away the hundred thousand quilted down jackets according to the general’s instructions or to distribute them to the soldiers. She didn’t care anymore.

MO Ruyue took the promissory note from the Great General’s hands and tucked it into her bosom like a treasure. Then, she looked at Gu Ying and whispered, “Carry me back. I’m dizzy.”

MO Ruyue closed her eyes and fell toward Gu Ying, a relieved expression on her face.

In the military camp, she couldn’t openly let Gu Ying carry her or hug her. Her legs were burning with pain. She had been gritting her teeth and holding on until now. Now, she didn’t want to take another step, so she had to resort to this plan.

She was so tired that she fainted, yet she couldn’t hug him?

Before Gu Ying could react, he subconsciously reached out to catch MO Ruyue and carried her in his arms.

As soon as the beauty entered his arms, Gu Ying felt as if she was floating in the air. His face revealed a panicked and distressed expression.

“Ruyue, what’s wrong?

Mo Ruyue could tell from Gu Ying’s nervous voice that he must not have understood what she said just now. She opened her eyes quietly, blinked at him, and then closed them again.

Gu Ying finally understood that MO Ruyue was pretending to faint, but his heart still ached.

It took her half a month to travel all the way here. Even a man would not be able to take it, let alone a girl like her. Moreover, his wife was so delicate. He could not imagine how his wife had traveled all the way here.

Advisor Jun noticed the situation here and was very angry when he saw Gu Ying’s behavior. He was really a guy who forgot his friendship when he saw women!

“Quickly call the military doctor over. Oh right, isn’t there a female doctor?” The general felt that MO Ruyue’s breathing was still stable. She might be tired, but he knew that the journey had been tough. He would only feel relieved if he let the doctor take a look at her.

Looking at how worried Gu Ying was about his wife, if there was really something wrong with Princess Ming Yue, Gu Ying would definitely be angry with him.

The soldier received the order and went to look for the doctor. Gu Ying carried MO Ruyue directly into his tent.

Chun Hua followed closely behind. She was also grimacing in pain. Luckily, Wei Yi was beside her, helping her reduce her strength.

Gu Ying gently placed MO Ruyue on his bed and realized that she was already asleep. It was obvious how tired she was.

He turned around and saw the pale Chun Hua. “Come and rest with your princess.”

Chun Hua still wanted to decline. This was the Eldest Master’s bed.

“We don’t care about that here. When your tent is set up, it will be tomorrow at the earliest. Are you prepared to stand until tomorrow?

Chun Hua could not help but want to pounce on the bed the moment she saw it. Now that Grand Elder Wen had said so, she did not hold back and ran to the other end of MO Ruyue’s bed to lie down.

Soon, the military doctor arrived, and the female doctor followed him.

The doctor checked MO Ruyue’s pulse. She was just a little overworked. She would be fine after resting for two more days.

The female doctor looked at MO Ruyue who was lying on Gu Ying’s bed. Her eyes, which had been calm all this while, started to ripple. This person was Yuan Yuan, who had been exiled to the border.

“You guys can leave.”

Gu Ying noticed that Yuan Yuan was looking at MO Ruyue strangely, so he asked her to leave. He tucked MO Ruyue in and left.

He let the two guards guard the door and went to look for the general.

The general nodded in agreement when he heard Gu Ying say that he was going out to patrol the surroundings.

It just so happened that they had a truce with the enemy in the next two days. If MO Ruyue had come a day earlier or two days later, they would have been fighting and they might not have been able to see them.

When it was almost dusk, a strange smell of stew wafted out of the military camp.

Advisor Jun had just returned from the latrine when he smelled the fragrance. Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, he could not help but follow the fragrance. Could it be that the kitchen was going to give their general an extra meal today?

Then, he wanted to see what was so fragrant.

She followed the smell and walked to Gu Yings tent. This was not the main point. The main point was that Gu Ying was making soup.

Advisor Jun immediately put on a fawning smile. “Hehe, Brother, you’re making soup.”

Gu Ying had a pair of hands that could cook well.

The Great General had said that Gu Ying’s cooking skills were not inferior to the imperial chefs in the palace.

Coincidentally, Gu Ying was about to get the soup.

“Yo, where did this roe deer come from?

However, Gu Ying directly took two pieces of wood as a cushion and carried the entire jar into the tent.

Advisor Jun was still standing outside when he heard Gu Ying’s words.

“Ruyue, have some soup to warm your stomach first. I’ll make some noodles for you later.”

MO Ruyue slept for the entire afternoon. When she woke up, she found herself lying on Gu Ying’s bed in such a dirty state. She felt very embarrassed.

When MO Ruyue woke up, she saw that Chun Hua had also woken up. Moreover, when both of them were lying on the same bed, MO Ruyue felt slightly less awkward. At least there was someone accompanying her.

After Chun Hua woke up, she wanted to boil some hot water. The princess definitely had to wash up and apply some ointment. Otherwise, the inner part of her thigh might fester.

As soon as she stepped out of the tent, a soldier came forward to ask if she wanted hot water. Chun Hua nodded, and then a few soldiers carried two large buckets of hot water. This was what Gu Ying had instructed them to do.

Ever since Chun Hua woke up, she had been lamenting about how thoughtful and considerate her husband was!
