The silkworm chrysalis could be used for both medicinal and food purposes. It was very valuable. The residue could be used to feed fish, livestock, and birds. It was a very complete business chain. Every step was a business opportunity, and the potential and profits were very impressive.

The Xie Residence had a portion of the silk business. They had natural channels and connections. How could they digest the silkworm business in the entire Liancheng area? They could cooperate with the Yue Fei’s Residence and vigorously develop the planting of trees, silkworm farming, and so on.

Yu Youyao smiled. “You know everything at a glance. It seems that the situation in the North is much better than we thought.”

Xie Jingliu nodded and said meaningfully, “I also heard that Princess Shaoyi has almost become a living Bodhisattva in the hearts of most people in the North.”

Yu Youyao’s eyes widened. “This…”

Xie Jingliu said with a faint smile, “The main food for the refugees is sweet potatoes. These things are very filling and make one resistant to hunger, greatly reducing the consumption of food. This is King Yue Fei’s confidence in taking in the refugees from the North. The sweet potatoes were the first to be successfully planted, and you spared no effort to promote planting them in the North. King Yue Fei also publicized your contributions wantonly. Every day, when the camp distributes food, there will be refugees holding food in their hands and kowtowing to you.”

He had seen such a scene with his own eyes. There were hundreds of refugees shouting that Princess Shaoyi was the best. The scene was very shocking.

Yu Youyao was a little stunned. “I— I actually didn’t do anything.”

Xie Jingliu stroked her hair and chuckled. “In the Wenchang Dijun’s Text on Hidden Good Deeds, people are advised to do good deeds. At all times, they should do good deeds and accumulate virtue. They should do deeds regardless of the size of the deed. When doing good deeds, one doesn’t care about the gains and losses. When they see thorns in the way, they cut them off. They will fill the road when it’s uneven. One might think this is convenient for them to pass through, but it’s also convenient for the pedestrians behind them.”

She could tolerate everything. On the outside, she was pure and gentle, but her heart was magnanimous. She did not deliberately do good deeds, but good deeds were naturally done. This was a kind of magnanimity and bearing as a person, and also an attitude towards dealing with others.

She was as kind as water.

Water benefited all things and followed what was right.

This was “real.”

Xie Jingliu spoke a little more about the situation in the North and discussed bringing the goods on the ship onshore.

At this moment, there was a commotion on the dock.

The commotion was huge. Xie Jingliu quickly left the ship’s hold and saw a group of soldiers in black and red cotton armor surrounding the entire dock.

The cotton armor reached below their knees. The hem of their clothes was split, making it convenient for them to fight immediately. As they moved neatly, the cotton armor on their bodies clanked, and copper and iron pieces were sewn into the interior of the cotton armor to defend against the enemy.

The weather in the North was bitterly cold, and the armor was knee-length. It was longer than the armor in other places. In order to ensure that the armor was coldproof and resistant to the enemy, the armor was 500 grams heavier than that of other places.

This was the armor of the You army.

With a thought, Xie Jingliu saw a general in black armor not far away. He had a curved saber on each side of his waist and a Zhanmadao as he strode towards the dock.

Yu Youyao sat in the ship’s hold and did not hear any commotion for a long time. She could not help but lift the curtain and bend down to walk out.

There was a clang in her ear. Yu Youyao seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up…

Yin Huaixi suddenly stared at her without blinking.

The bright daylight above her head suddenly pierced into her eyes. Yu Youyao felt dizzy. Everything around her turned into an illusory outline. Only the person in her eyes seemed to carry light like fire. His thunderous steps stepped on her heart and he walked towards her step by step.

Her heart began to beat faster, and her blood rushed through her veins. Her heart pounded again and again. It was the sound of his footsteps on her heart, like thunder and lightning, making her ears numb and deaf.

The ship shook violently. Yu Youyao’s vision spun, and the illusory scene began to collapse. She felt dizzy and her body swayed uncontrollably.

Xie Jingliu was about to help her when someone was faster than him.

In the blink of an eye, he had pulled Yu Youyao into his arms.

The boat was still swaying. Yu Youyao, who was clearly used to sitting in a boat, felt a little dizzy from the swaying of the boat. She stayed obediently in Yin Huaixi’s arms and did not dare to move anymore.

Xie Jingliu’s voice sounded in her ears. “What happened?”

Someone replied, “Just now, a merchant ship entered the dock. When it stopped, it accidentally collided with our ship. It’s fine now.”

Only then did Yu Youyao realize something.

Yin Huaixi was here!

The soft armor made of golden silk was hard and cold. Yu Youyao cowered and reminded him softly, “The boat doesn’t seem to be shaking anymore.”

“Yes.” Yin Huaixi’s voice was low and hoarse. It was as if he had been accelerated by the wind and sand, making him look obscure and quiet. He was no longer as cold as before. “It’s not shaking anymore.”

There was a moment of silence.

“Then, let go of me first.” Yu Youyao’s face was red, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito’s, revealing a hint of panic. “There are too many people at the dock. If, if someone sees us…”

Yin Huaixi had come with great fanfare. Even if the people at the dock did not know him, they at least knew the You Prefecture army. After asking around, they knew that it was him.

She couldn’t help but step back, but her heel pressed against the wooden wall.

The merchant ship was modeled after a warship. There were arrow towers around it that could be used as sentry and archery towers. Therefore, the arrow towers had to be a little higher. They could stand under the arrow towers and were very hidden.

Yu Youyao panicked even more.

“You’ve lost weight again!” Not only did Yin Huaixi not let go of her, but he also tightened his grip on her. He still felt that her waist, which was in his arms, was not tight enough in his hands, making him feel as if he had not grabbed her tightly. His heart was empty, as if he could not fill it no matter what.

This thinness was unbearable.

She was too light. He felt that she was fragile, and that he could lose her easily. As a result, he wanted to use more strength and try his best to hold her tightly, never letting go again.

With just this sentence, Yu Youyao’s nose stung, and even her eyes felt a little sore.

Her eyes turned red. “Yes, I’m growing, so I won’t gain weight. Look, my height is at the bottom of your chest now.”

Yin Huaixi finally let go of her and observed her.

He had left Quanzhou last winter. When they met again, it was already the next spring. They had missed ringing out the new year and ringing in the new year. They had also missed the reunion festival.

They had not seen each other for almost three months.

The person in front of her seemed to have suddenly grown up. Her facial features were much clearer, and her figure rose and fell beautifully, like a flower that was about to bloom.

After sitting on the boat for almost a month, her face was almost translucent white, but her young eyes had turned into mountains and seas. At a glance, they were a thousand miles long and colorful. There were several peaks between the clouds, and she looked magnificent after experiencing the world. She lowered her eyebrows and eyes. She was delicate and bright, revealing a mysterious and reserved beauty.

She seemed to have suddenly completed the transformation from a young girl to a woman.

However, Yu Youyao was only thirteen years old.
