For the first time in his life, Yin Huaixi felt that his intelligence was questioned. He wished he could crawl into Yu Youyao’s mind and see what she was thinking! !
After carefully putting the other half of the jade pendant that belonged to her back into her pouch, Yu Youyao changed the topic. “When are you returning to Youzhou?”
Before Yin Huaixi left, he mentioned the jade pendant to rea.s.sure her.
It was as if she couldn’t wait for him to leave early!
Yin Huaixi was speechless.
He had taken the original pair of jade pendants to indirectly show her his intentions. The meaning of the hint was too clear.
Of course, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to express it more clearly.
However, Yu Youyao was still young and ignorant about love. He did not want to be too abrupt, in case he frightened her. But what the h.e.l.l was the Green Plum Fruit?!
Wasn’t her reaction a little too calm?
Seeing that he had not said anything, Yu Youyao asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen in the North?”
“I’ll leave the day after tomorrow.” Yin Huaixi had mixed feelings and felt a little upset. Holding the jade pendant that belonged to him, he had a thousand thoughts in his mind, but he still couldn’t figure out what Yu Youyao meant.
However, she had clearly changed the topic, so he couldn’t push her too hard. “l originally planned to meet you at the Xie Residence tomorrow and say goodbye.”
Upon hearing that it wasn’t a problem with the North, Yu Youyao heaved a
sigh of relief. made a lot of incense medicine in my house. I’ll pack it up later and bring it to you tomorrow. It’s bitterly cold in the North in winter. You have to take care of your health.” She thought for a moment and said, “By the way, I’ll ask Grandmother for a few prescriptions tomorrow. Bring them back to the North to nourish the soldiers’ bodies.’
Medicinal wine had the effect of nourishing blood. Most soldiers had hidden injuries, especially rheumatism and bone pain that was mind numbing. Every winter, it was very painful and annoying.
It was bitterly cold in the North, and the soldiers had the habit of drinking in winter to keep warm.
On the other hand, the medicinal herbs needed to soak to make the medicinal wine were not expensive. One set of medicinal herbs could be soaked in ten kilograms of medicinal wine, and a small cup every morning and night was enough.
As Old Madam Sun was old, she had a numbing problem due to the humidity. Previously, an old servant of the Xie family had given Old Madam Sun the medicinal wine rewarded by the main family.
After drinking for three to five days, the pain in Old Madam Sun’s body subsided.
It couldn’t be treated completely.
However, drinking it for a long time could slow down the worsening of the illness and any relapse, preventing it from affecting her normal life.
It was also because of this that she noticed the medicinal wine.
Every word and sentence was filled with concern for him. It was no different from before, but the biggest difference was that Yin Huaixi kept feeling uncomfortable.
“Yu Youyao.” Yin Huaixi’s eyes darkened. He opened his mouth and asked, “Who am l?”
Yu Youyao was a little puzzled. “Why do you ask? You’re you. Who else can you be?”
Her expression seemed to ask if there was something wrong with his brain, making Yin Huaixi feel even more uncomfortable. “I’m asking you, who am I in your eyes?”
Yu Youyao looked at him quietly and said nothing.
The sudden silence made a sense of ruthlessness surge in Yin Huaixi’s heart, and his eyes darkened. “Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Yu Youyao looked at him strangely. “Yin Huaixi?!”
Yin Huaixi nodded and suddenly reacted. “You called my name just now?”
Yu Youyao was a little speechless. For some reason, she felt that the wise and mighty Yue Fei, King Dingbei, seemed to be a simple-minded person?! She suddenly shuddered.
The scene was too beautiful to look at.
She quickly shook her head to chase away the messy thoughts in her mind!
“Zhou Linghuai?”
“Cousin!”
“Yin Huaixi!”
“Brother Jingzhi!’
Yin Huaixi looked at her and said nothing.
He was a bystander, so he knew better. Yu Youyao said, “Whether it’s Zhou Linghuai or Yin Huaixi, you’ve always been the one who treats me well. Whether it’s Cousin or Yue Fei, I’m certain that it’s you, not the ident.i.ty the name represents. Don’t ask such childish questions in the future. 1 remember that I already said this three years ago on the day Ye Hanyuan beat the drum.”
Yin Huaixi quickly asked, “You just said that identifying with me is equivalent to accepting me?”
Yu Youyao suddenly felt that the room was a little hot and dry, so she raised her hand to pick up her teacup.
In the past, she had practiced etiquette countless times. This time, she accidentally caused the teacup to hit the bottom of the cup, resulting in a clear clang.
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent!
Yu Youyao lowered her head and drank her tea, no longer looking at Yin Huaixi.
Yin Huaixi pursed his lips tightly, but he couldn’t help but smile crazily. Every time, he pursed his lips tightly, not daring to be too blatant.
It turned out that she had a reaction.
She was pretending to be calm.
On careful thought, he and Yu Youyao could be considered childhood sweethearts and had grown up intimately with each other. Now that they were suddenly talking about love, Yu Youyao felt a little shy and confused.
It was inevitable that it would be like the words of a poem. She would lower her head to the dark wall and not be called out once.
She did not know how to respond.
He did not need her to respond.
As long as she knew.
There was still time in the future.
There was no hurry.
Yin Huaixi nodded, cleared his throat, and changed the topic. “Have you felt better recently?”
Yu Youyao finally heaved a sigh of relief. Her previously ignorant and hazy feelings suddenly became clear, making her feel at a loss and not knowing how to face him.
She was not used to this sudden change.
“The climate in Quanzhou is suitable for recuperation. There’s nothing to worry about in the residence. Eldest Aunt also saw that I was much better, so she brought me out to relax.”
Yin Huaixi was finally relieved. “Rest your body in Quanzhou first. Yin San will stay behind and secretly protect you. Although Chun Xiao is good at fighting, Quanzhou is not like the capital. There are all kinds of people in Quanzhou.
Let Yin Shi follow you.”
Yu Youyao was about to ask who Yin Shi was when she heard Yin Huaixi clap.
A woman in black flew in from the window and knelt on one knee in front of
Yu Youyao. She cupped her fists and lowered her head. “I’m Yin Shi. Greetings,
Young Miss. Greetings, Your Highness.”
Yin Shi was tall and thin. Her face was covered by a black scarf, so his face could not be seen, only revealing a pair of willowy eyes. They were long and sharp, like knives. Her voice was cold, like gold and jade.
Yu Youyao was a little curious. “Get up quickly.”
“Thank you, Young Miss.” Yin Shi stood up cleanly and swiftly. Like a shadow, she stood behind Yu Youyao silently, as if she did not have any presence. If one did not deliberately pay attention, everyone would subconsciously ignore her.
Yin Huaixi nodded in satisfaction. “The secret guards around me are all ranked by their abilities. Yin Shi is not bad. In the future, when you walk around outside, you have to bring her along. If you encounter any trouble, leave it to Yin Shi to handle..
