Chapter 1796: How Will You Get Married in the Future Aaaah

General Liu did not rush to become the emperor. Instead, he kept his strategy of slowly expanding their territory, capturing every inch of land around them. They waged war to support the war. After all, to feed so many people, he had to capture more land, kill corrupt officials, and take money from the rich to sustain the army.
Ning Shu participated in every campaign. In addition to killing the enemy, she carried her medicine box, acting as a doctor. If an important figure in the army was injured, she had to treat them immediately.
Although it was an arduous task, Ning Shu felt that her status in the army had improved significantly. No one could guarantee that they would not get harmed. Going to war was so dangerous that even life could not be guaranteed, let alone injuries.
But Chen Li was quite conflicted. After hesitating for a long time, he finally decided to confront Ning Shu. "Little Sister, you have seen so many men's bodies. How will you get married in the future aaaah…"
Ning Shu said, "With my merits, no one will dare to say anything even if I don't marry."
"But, a woman has to get married after all." Chen Li said, "Could it be that you want to be an old spinster?"
The corners of Ning Shu’s mouth twitched. "In this situation, who do you think I can marry?"
It was now wartime, an era of chaos. Who would talk about getting married?
Chen Li sighed. "If a woman is not married, people will criticize her behind her back."
"Let them," said Ning Shu lightly.
The status of a woman could not be changed. She would not marry and let a man hold her down. It was a chaotic world. Which bastard would care about holding the parents responsible for not marrying their daughter at the age of seventeen?
Could her meritorious service not let her choose her own life?
Chen Li’s attempts to reason with her never succeeded, so he just changed the subject and said, "Sister, it's been more than two years, almost three years now. Can we send a letter home? Our parents are probably worried."
Ning Shu was in a daze. Without her realizing, she had already been in this world for such a long time.
She thought for a while and said, "Wait a bit."
"It’s just a letter. What am I waiting for?" asked Chen Li with some confusion.
"Wait until General Liu proclaims himself to be emperor. We will receive our rewards before writing to our parents," said Ning Shu.
Chen Li said, "Wasn't the matter of proclaiming himself as emperor postponed?"
"General Liu has 30% of the country’s land in his hands now, so he can become the emperor." Ning Shu said, "Didn't you notice the recent construction?"
Ning Shu felt that she was already quite stupid, but she didn't expect Chen Li's head to be more empty than hers. General Liu had always wanted to be the emperor, and the time was now ripe.
Chen Li curled his lips. "I'm not in General Liu's head. How can I know what he is thinking?"
He then went out to train his soldiers. After Chen Li left, Fang Yong brought medicinal ingredients over, put them on a table, and said to Ning Shu, "Give me ten bottles of golden wound salve."
Fang Yong pushed the medicinal materials to Ning Shu. He was obviously offering these in exchange. Ning Shu generously accepted the materials and gave Fang Yong ten bottles of golden wound salve.
After Fang Yong accepted the medicine, he looked at Ning Shu and said, "Chen Ermei, I think you are suitable for being a military doctor. Sometimes, it is more useful to save people than to kill."
Ning Shu smiled. "Thank you for your suggestion. I will consider it."
Fang Yong nodded. He took the medicine and left.
After he left, Ning Shu propped her chin on her hand. She already knew that, but she had to earn military merits.
Chen Ermei was also suitable to take the military doctor route. However, Ning Shu didn’t know if Chen Ermei could accept seeing a man's body.
Ning Shu took a book and ground ink to record various medicinal powders, the diseases that armies were most likely to get, how to fix them, and even how to deal with some wounds.
