Chapter 332: Something Happened in My Hometown
After finishing dinner at Zhang’s house, Li Yiyi followed Jiang Hong back to the military district’s family compound.
Because it was already night when they returned, no one knew they had come back.
It was not until the next day that several military wives in the family compound who were on good terms with Li Yiyi learned that their family had returned.
Jia Chunhua was the first to come.
"I said that I saw your Jiang Hong go out to the canteen to get food early in the morning. When I first saw your Captain Jiang, I didn't quite believe it. It was not until I went up to him and asked him if you were coming back with him that he nodded. Only then did I dare to come to your house to find you." As soon as they met, Jia Chunhua walked up to Li Yiyi with a happy face, took her hand and started talking.
"Sister-in-law, how have you been recently? Is the factory's profit okay?" Li Yiyi looked at Jia Chunhua, who seemed to have gained a little weight, and asked happily for her.
"It's fine. The factory pays my salary on time every month. My monthly salary is 45 yuan, which is almost half of what my husband He makes. Now at home, I no longer have to serve them like an old housewife. I told them that the whole family should do the housework together, and whoever doesn't do it will not have to eat." After saying that, she couldn't help but laugh with joy.
"But you, where have you been? Why did you take so long? We thought your Commander Jiang was transferred to another military region. Later, I asked my husband He and found out that it was not the case. I was so worried at the time, thinking that I would never see you again." Jia Chunhua is still a little scared when talking about this matter.
"There was a patient who had difficulty moving and needed my help. Jiang Hong was worried about me going so far away, so he went with me." Li Yiyi held her hand and explained briefly.
Jia Chunhua didn't ask in detail. She just interrupted her when she got here and said with relief, "So that's how it is. I'm relieved then."
"Sister-in-law, invite Captain He to come over for dinner tonight. And invite Xiaoxi and Cailan's families as well, so that the four of us can get together."
Jia Chunhua was also a forthright person. When she heard her say that, she agreed immediately and then said, "I think it's okay. We haven't gotten together for a long time. Since you went to work at the county hospital, you've always been busy. This time you brought it up, and we have no problem with it. I'll go to my vegetable garden later to pick some vegetables. I'll also bring over two strips of bacon at home."
Li Yiyi interrupted her plan with a smile and said, "Sister-in-law, no need, just bring some vegetables. I have meat at home, so there is no shortage of meat."
Jia Chunhua thought of Li Meizi's ability, and then she agreed without being polite to her, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I won't bring any meat, just some vegetables."
After they finished talking about this matter, they quickly separated.
After being away from home for so long, many places in the house are covered with dust. Li Yiyi plans to stay at home today and clean the house with Aunt Huang.
As for the two children, they went to school early.
As for Jiang Hong, he reported to the military district early.
At this time, there were only them, one old and one young, left at home cleaning the house.
When I was halfway through cleaning, the phone at home suddenly rang.
Li Yiyi put down the work in her hands and answered the phone.
As soon as she picked up the phone, a voice came from the other end of the phone that sounded familiar, but Li Yiyi felt it was unfamiliar.
"Is this your sister-in-law?" A woman's voice came from the other end of the line.
Li Yiyi listened to the name and thought carefully about the owner of the voice. She immediately recognized her as the eldest sister-in-law of Lao Jiang's family.
"Is this sister-in-law? Sister-in-law, right? I'm Li Yiyi." Hearing this familiar voice, Li Yiyi said happily to Sister-in-law Jiang on the other end of the phone.
When Jiang Dasao heard the voice calling her "sister-in-law" enthusiastically from the other end of the phone, she finally let go of the worry she had been holding and laughed out loud, "Third sister-in-law, it's me, sister-in-law. Are you back from outside?"
Li Yiyi smiled and replied, "I'm back. I just came back yesterday. Sister-in-law, why did you call me? Did something happen at home?"
As soon as she finished asking the question, Mrs. Jiang on the other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.
Li Yiyi felt the silence on the other end of the line, and her heart tightened. She held the phone tightly and asked, "Sister-in-law, has something happened at home? Don't hide it from us, tell us quickly."
Mrs. Jiang on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time before she finally spoke, "Something happened, Third Brother's wife. If it weren't for this, we wouldn't know what to do. We don't want to call and disturb you and Third Brother."
Li Yiyi quickly interrupted her, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? We are a family, there is no need to disturb us. If you hadn't told us about this, we would have been really angry. Don't worry, we can talk slowly."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Mrs. Jiang crying on the other end of the phone.
Li Yiyi's heart skipped a beat. Her sister-in-law was a strong rural woman. She would never cry unless she encountered any difficult things.
"Sister-in-law, don't cry first. Tell me what happened first, and we'll find a way to solve it together." Li Yiyi spoke to comfort Sister-in-law Jiang who was crying on the other end of the phone.
Maybe her words of comfort worked or something, the crying on the other end of the phone finally subsided.
"Third sister-in-law, your eldest brother went to the city to work for someone some time ago. He accidentally fell from the roof of a tiled house and broke both of his legs. The doctor said that he may never be able to walk again. What should we do? He is the pillar of our family. If his legs are broken, what will happen to our family?"
Li Yiyi listened to the increasingly loud sobbing of Jiang Dasao on the other end of the phone. She tried to comfort him again, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. Maybe things can turn around. Let's do this. I'll go back to my hometown tomorrow and help my brother."
When Jiang Dasao heard her words, she stopped crying and said with a heavy nasal voice, "Third sister-in-law, is it okay? Can you really come back?"
Li Yiyi smiled and comforted her, "What's wrong with that? Tell big brother not to worry, I will definitely go back and help take care of him."
Mrs. Jiang on the other end of the phone laughed out loud when she heard her words of assurance, wiping away tears as she said, "Third sister-in-law, I don't know why, but after hearing what you said, I feel more confident and less afraid."
Li Yiyi followed with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you should start to counsel Big Brother and make him feel better. The most important thing for a patient is his mood. If he is in a bad mood, it will also be detrimental to his injury, understand?"
