The young couple from the farm fights back

Xiao Chao saw Zhou Chunfeng take the pill and then laid him down carefully.

Deputy General Hong couldn't help but stare at the few remaining pills in Xiao Ce's palm. The military doctor had just said that these were good medicines. He was even more curious about where Zhou Chunfeng found the pills and even hid them in the hairband.

Xiao Chao looked back at Lieutenant General Hong and without a word, he grabbed the pills and the coins from his brother's hand. He was afraid that the pills his brother needed to save his life would be coveted by others.

Lieutenants: ...

Xiao Ce felt helpless for a moment. His second brother was a straightforward and stubborn old man. If he didn't understand his character, he would definitely make enemies everywhere.

"Second brother, since it is a good medicine, it is better to give it to the military doctor. It is so good that the military doctor can study it carefully. If we can prepare more good medicine in the army, wouldn't it be a good thing?"

Xiao Chao frowned and thought about it, feeling that his elder brother was very thoughtful. But he was also afraid that the military doctor would make a fuss after getting the pill, so he was stingy and only gave him one.

The military doctor took it with both hands as if it were a treasure. The more he put it to his nose and smelled it, the more he felt that the ingredients of this pill were extremely exquisite and wonderful, and he was amazed in his heart.

Soon, two military doctors and a doctor bandaged Zhou Chunfeng's wound, and the bleeding finally stopped. They took his pulse again and felt that the pills he had taken before were miraculous.

In order not to disturb Zhou Chunfeng's rest, Xiao Ce led everyone out of the tent. He thought of the mystery hidden in Zhou Chunfeng's hairband, and then looked at the medicine bottle that Xiao Chao had put in a porcelain bottle and was holding tightly in his hand.

He said slowly, "Come with me."

Xiao Chao dared not disobey: "Yes, big brother."

Deputy General Hong and several other deputy generals stopped where they were and watched the two men's backs, feeling confused.

Deputy General Hong, in particular, recalled what had happened before and couldn't help but look back at the curtain that was lowered behind him.

At this time, the deputy general surnamed Jiang spoke up, "The military doctor said that Deputy General Zhou's heart pulse was saved by taking that pill. This Deputy General Zhou must be from a very important background. How could a mere peasant like him get these miraculous medicines?"

Lieutenant General Jiang's words hit the mark for Lieutenant General Hong, and a dark light flashed in his eyes: "Long before, I felt that this person was not simple. The rebel army suffered repeated defeats in this battle, but after Zhou Chunfeng came, he successively instigated the enemy to rebel. Either this person is really a genius sent from heaven, or--" He is a spy planted by the enemy army in their rebel army to confuse them.

Deputy General Hong didn't say the last sentence, and continued: "When he recovers in the future, we brothers must keep a close eye on him. If this person comes from a bad background, even if he offends the Second Master, I will never show mercy."

After thinking about it, several deputy generals all felt that Zhou Chunfeng's background was suspicious, and they immediately reached a consensus in their hearts.

Inside the tent, Xiao Ce was surprised after listening to Xiao Chao's narration.

"The Zhou family's wife knows medicine?"

Zhou Chao nodded. He didn't know much. Old Zhou was a tight-lipped man. But he did know that he joined the army for the sake of his wife and children at home.

Xiao Ce was shocked. Few women in the world practiced medicine, let alone could create such a remarkable elixir. It seemed that Heaven was also willing to help their rebellion rise, sending such a capable general as Zhou Chunfeng, along with the elixir made by his wife.

A few days later, Changsheng Island.

After Jiang Li's treatment, the patients in the wooden shed recovered one after another and returned to their homes to recuperate. The remaining few patients with more serious poisoning could also go home and lie down to recuperate after the last round of acupuncture today.

As the sun was setting, a few boys from Mingyang were tidying up the empty wooden shed. When they lifted up the straw mats, they found that the soil underneath was not only pitch black, but also emitted a faint rotten smell.

Jiang Li handed the medicine box to Fang who was standing beside him. Seeing a few boys gathered together and muttering, he couldn't help but step forward and said, "Tear down the wooden shed and burn it down. It's not suitable to build a house here anytime soon."

Ming Yang nodded immediately and said, "Yes, Madam Li, we will dismantle the wooden shed now."

Jiang Li thought of Ming Ye, whom she hadn't seen for many days, and asked, "Is Ming Ye still being kept in the pavilion by the island master?"

Upon hearing this, Fang's face flashed with worry, knowing that the head of the family must have been severely punished by the island master for pleading for Mingfeng and the others. "That's right."

Jiang Li was about to offer some words of comfort, but stopped herself. Forget it, the man in the family is a soft-hearted person. If the wife is also like this, it will be Madam Yuan who will suffer in the future.

She should focus on recuperating from the damage she'd sustained during the confinement period. "When Mingye comes back, tell him I need help."

"Yes, Lady Li."

For dinner tonight, Madam Yuan specially stewed braised pig's trotters for Jiang Li and the children as a nourishment. To thank Jiang Li for saving their lives, the people on the island sent live chickens and ducks from their homes. Today, someone also specially slaughtered a fat pig from their family and sent more than ten pounds of the best pork belly and two plump pig's trotters.

The women on the island were all skilled workers, capable of slaughtering chickens and ducks, fishing, and even dissecting a live pig. It seemed the islanders all had some skills, which made Jiang Li curious about the origins of the people of Changsheng Island.

The brothers hadn't eaten at the same table with Jiang Li for several days. The sensible Que and Heng watched over their younger brothers while they ate. Two-year-old An, in particular, should have been the most restless at his age. Unexpectedly, he was even more patient than his older brother, nibbling obediently on the tender, stewed pig's trotter meat in his hands.

Madam Yuan was particularly fond of him and would sit by his side, feeding him with a small spoon. Jing'er always had plenty to eat, and he didn't need any help from adults. After a meal, he would eat until his belly was plump, his mouth was greasy, and he was very adorable.

These days, Awu has been let out by Dashuan to the mountains to hunt for wild animals on his own, but when it is time for his master's meal at home, he can also get some bone crumbs to grind his teeth.

Fang helped hold Lan Jie'er in the yard to cool off. The little girl was not shy. The night view of the island was more artistic than that of Shilitun. She looked at the moon like a jade plate in the sky, grinning and giggling.

As Jiang Li ate, she thought about how the food rations she had brought from home were running out. Although she had brought rice seeds, she was afraid it would be too late to plant them in her current state. She also felt sorry for the pile of yam seedlings she had left in Shili Village.

"Madam Yuan."

Yuan Niang fed An Ge'er a mouthful of rice and quickly responded, "Madam, do you have any instructions?"

"Mrs. Yuan, there's no need to be so reserved with me. I just wanted to ask, is it convenient for you to go shopping outside in the past?"

Yuan Niang smiled knowingly and said, "My lady, you are worried about the food supply at home. Don't worry, there is enough food on our island. You never have to leave the island to buy food. The food supply for you and your family will be prepared on the island, so you don't have to worry about it."

Jiang Li thought to herself, how could she bear to eat it all at once? "I appreciate your kindness. My family can pay for the purchase."

"My lady, please don't be so distant. This is also what our island master wants."

When mentioning the island owner, Jiang Li's politeness paused. He felt that the island owner's ingenuity had reached a superb level.

"When people on the island need something on weekdays, do we all go to the sea to buy it?" Jiang Li asked.

Yuan Niang nodded and said, "If anyone is short of clothes, they can ask the head of the family to go shopping with them across the sea. It's a good opportunity to send some seafood to the city to exchange for money. If you need anything, I'll have that brat Mingye get it for you."

Jiang Li smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you for your help."

"No trouble."

"Starting tomorrow, I need to recuperate at home. Once I have made up for the loss of the confinement period, I will find a time to have Mingye take me to meet the island master."

"Yes, ma'am."
