These old soldiers had also endured it like this.
However, they did not tell these young soldiers that many of them would be buried in other places and would never have a chance to reunite with their families.
A young soldier choked and asked, “Can I live until the day the war is settled?”
The camp suddenly fell silent—
In the silent night, there was only the sound of bonfires.
No one answered the question.
Because no one knew how to answer.
Even they did not know if they could live to that day. Perhaps this farewell would forever separate them from their families.
There were soft whimpers from the camp.
“Yes, I’ll bring you back alive to reunite with your families.” In the silent and sad atmosphere, a clear and indifferent voice suddenly sounded. It echoed with the silver light of the moon, as cold as the moon.
The soldiers looked up at the source of the sound—
Head General Yin was sitting in a wheelchair. The moonlight melted, illuminating his snow-white body. The moon was really in his arms. Under the light of the bonfire, he was like a demon lord descending from the sky. He was really a god in the mortal world.
Yin Huaixi!
At this moment, a weak young man with a crippled leg who was only 15 years old was saying to them in a firm tone, “I’ll bring you back alive to reunite with your families!”
An old soldier cried on the spot.
They had fought for decades and followed countless generals. They only knew that knives and arrows were blind on the battlefield and they were in danger. Everyone only cared about whether they could win this battle. No one cared about their lives.
The old soldier suddenly shouted, “Head General Yin, we believe you.”
“We believe you—I’
“I trust you…”
They did not believe in the general but the person who had told them on the night of their reunion that he would bring them back to reunite with their families.
Yu Youyao slept soundly.
When she woke up the next day, the first thing she saw was the palace lamp by the bed. The light was already out, and the Lotus Plucking Painting on it was vivid and unique. It was very beautiful.
The palace lamp that her cousin had personally made were really beautiful!
Chun Xiao followed her gaze and asked curiously, “Young Miss, this palace lamp looks very unique. Why haven’t I seen it before?”
Yu Youyao did not hide it. Her tone inevitably showed off. “I just received a Mid-Autumn Festival gift from Cousin yesterday. I heard that Cousin made it himself.’
“Young Master is really considerate. Even though he’s far away in Youzhou, he still remembers to give Young Miss a Mid -Autumn Festival gift.” Chun Xiao did not suspect anything. Although Young Master had gone to Youzhou, it was normal for him to ask the courier to send something to Young Miss.
These words touched Yu Youyao’s heart.
As soon as Yu Youyao finished her breakfast, Xia Tao came over to report that the doctor whom Old Madam had invited to take Concubine Qiu’s pulse had already entered the residence.
This was the top priority of the family. Yu Youyao quickly brought Xia Tao to the Rain Autumn Courtyard.
Concubine Qiu leaned against the bed. Her thin and fair wrist reached out from the sky-green curtain. A maidservant took a silk handkerchief that was as thin as a cicada’s wing and gently covered her wrist.
The doctor was also used to it in the residence. He took Concubine Qiu’s pulse unhurriedly.
Old Madam Yu sat in her room, twirling her prayer beads in her hand. Even though she knew that Nanny Xu’s judgment would not be wrong, she couldn’t help but feel nervous.
After a while, the doctor retracted his hand.
Old Madam Yu couldn’t take it anymore and asked, “Doctor, how is it?”
The doctor said, “Old Madam, it’s great news. Concubine Qiu is indeed more than two months pregnant, and her pregnancy is very stable. If she recuperates well, she will definitely be able to give birth to more children in the residence.” Old Madam Yu looked delighted. “Is there anything I should pay attention to?”
The doctor shook his head. “Concubine Qiu’s health isn’t bad, so there’s no need to deliberately nourish her. Just eat more nourishing food usually. You have to be especially careful not to eat anything that is too cooling.”
Old Madam Yu felt relieved. She quickly took the money and asked Nanny Liu to send the doctor out.
The maidservant closed the curtains. Concubine Qiu was about to get up and greet Old Madam Yu.
Old Madam Yu quickly stopped her. “Lie down quickly and properly. You’re not even three months pregnant. This baby is very fragile. You have to be more careful.’
Concubine Qiu did not insist. “I thank Old Madam for her understanding.”
A smile appeared on Old Madam Yu’s face. “It’s been a long time since such a joyous occasion has happened in our family. You’re a hero. Rest in peace and take care of your pregnancy.”
Yu Youyao also smiled and said, “Grandmother, don’t just be happy. Concubine Qiu’s body is important. Do you want to add a few more people to serve her? To be appropriate, do you want to choose a sensible nanny to take care of Concubine Qiu’s daily life? Also, check carefully in the Rain Autumn Courtyard to prevent anything bad from hurting the fetus…
However, Old Madam Yu was stunned.
Old Madam Yu had also been through this before, so how could she not understand this? To her surprise, these words came from her granddaughter’s mouth.
It seemed that as soon as she found out yesterday that Concubine Qiu was pregnant, she had asked the nanny in the residence how to do this.
Concubine Qiu suddenly got up from the bed and knelt in front of Yu Youyao without any explanation.
Yu Youyao quickly reached out to pull her back, but she was worried that she wouldn’t be careful, so she retracted her hand. “What are you doing? You’re already with child. You can’t kneel so easily. Get up quickly.”
After saying that, seeing that Concubine Qiu had yet to get up, Yu Youyao looked at her grandmother.
Old Madam Yu, who cared about her children the most, sat there without saying anything.
Concubine Qiu knew that she had made the right choice. “When I was young, I worked hard to take care of my body and my constitution. I received Old Madam’s great kindness and Eldest Master’s love. For many years, I haven’t been able to help Eldest Master. I feel deeply ashamed.” At this point, she took a deep breath and kowtowed to Yu Youyao. “Eldest Miss hired a doctor to take my pulse and nourish my body with medicinal cuisine every day. I will remember Eldest Miss’s kindness to me.”
Exhausting her body were all words on the surface, but it was Yang Shuwan who was in charge of their health and not letting them give birth.
In the past, when they served Master at night, Nanny Li would bring over a bowl of nourishing soup the next morning to nourish their bodies. She would watch them finish the nourishing soup before leaving.
The nourishing soup was indeed good, but it would be cooling for her body.
As time passed, her physique became cold.
Yu Youyao’s expression was indifferent. “Mother is seriously ill and has been recuperating in the Tranquil Heart Residence. In the future, remember your duty and serve Father well. The best repayment to our family is to add more children to the family. Get up!”
Concubine Qiu was undoubtedly a smart person.
When she was a concubine, she remembered her master-servant relationship with her grandmother and kept to herself. Even Madam Yang was wary of her serving Old Madam in the past and did not dare to do anything to her, lest she embarrass herself..
