She was his biological sister, yet he left her here alone.

“I want to go with you, Big Brother.”

Qian Jiyun did not care what his sister wanted and insisted, “Stay here.”

Things did not look optimistic outside. Even with An Jiuyue’s prescription, it would be difficult to control the epidemic effectively if it spread widely.

He did not mention earlier that they could not control the spread of the epidemic disease in the military camp due to a lack of two of the herbs required for the medicine.

It still would still require time even if the medicine was delivered to them from somewhere nearby.

They might not die if they contracted the epidemic disease, but they would suffer.

“Why can’t you bring me along if you can bring Sister-in-law along? It’s not like I haven’t been to the military camp before,” Qian Yiyun objected and stomped her feet.

She had stayed in the military camp several times in the last five years—and for quite a while each time.

I’m not unfamiliar with the military camp. On the other hand, my sister-in-law has never stayed there, so she should stay home, right?

“If Sister-in-law can go, why can’t I?”

Qian Jiyun was silent for a moment. He lowered his head and chuckled. Then, he looked up at Qian Yiyun seriously.

“How about this? I’ll bring you to the forest tomorrow morning. If you can hunt a wild boar on your own like Jiuyue and identify 10 medicinal herbs, I’ll take you with me,” he suggested.

Qian Yiyun was surprised.

She had learned some pharmacology and could barely recognize 10 medicinal herbs.

However, she could not hunt wild boars. She reckoned the wild boars would hunt her instead!

“Forget it then. I’ll stay here. I can also supervise those people to chop enough firewood.”

As the saying goes, a wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. That applies to me too! I shouldn’t allow myself to suffer, right?

Settling for the next best thing is good too. Staying here to supervise those people chopping wood is also a form of entertainment, right?

“Mhm.” Qian Jiyun nodded in satisfaction.

“Jiuyue will leave Warrior-Servant One behind. Remember to stay with Warrior-Servant One as much as possible when we’re not around,” he reminded.

“Alright, I know.” Qian Yiyun nodded, but she was puzzled.

She had never seen Warrior-Servant One before, having only heard of him.

Who is Warrior-Servant One? Does my sister-in-law have another expert by her side? He must be a formidable person if my brother thinks he can protect me well!

…

In the room…

An Jiuyue was tidying her things while listening to Wei Na’s nagging in her mind.

“Master, are you leaving Warrior-Servant One behind?”

“Mhm.” An Jiuyue nodded. “Warrior-Servant One is strong enough. He can stay behind to guard the house and protect Qian Yiyun. Isn’t that efficient?”

She felt that it was suitable for Warrior-Servant One to stay. Someone had to stay at home. Since Qian Jiyun wanted Qian Yiyun to stay, she had to leave someone with her.

“But Master…”

“Is there a problem?” An Jiuyue retorted.

Does Wei Na not want me to leave Warrior-Servant One here? Or does Wei Na find him too rigid because he’s a paper effigy?

Wei Na sighed softly. It could not help but remind her, “Master, have you forgotten something?”
