Chapter 449 Memory
Ye Qiaoqiao, along with Commander Ye and their two children, were delayed on the road for a few days before finally arriving in Huaicheng.
As soon as they arrived in Huaicheng, Commander Ye couldn't wait to take his two children into the army without even taking a rest.
"Dad, I'll go around and look around by myself then."
Ye Qiaoqiao's memory of Huaicheng only came from a trip she made three years ago when she returned to China. However, she was in a hurry with teacher Damon that time and did not take a careful look around.
This time Ye Qiaoqiao decided to take a closer look.
She had bodyguards with her.
First I went to the cemetery outside the suburbs where my mother and grandmother were buried.
As soon as she stepped into the cemetery, some familiar yet unfamiliar memories suddenly popped up in Ye Qiaoqiao's mind. She shook her head, trying to sort out the memories in her mind, but found that they only flashed by.
Ye Qiaoqiao was in a trance and unconsciously walked to the tombstones of her grandmother and mother.
She looked at the picture on the tombstone.
The kind grandmother has a smile on her face, next to her is the serious-looking grandfather, and on the other side there is a photo of the young mother with yellow daisies on it.
She knew that the flowers were placed there by her father.
Grandma and grandpa’s flowers are white chrysanthemums.
Totally different.
Ye Qiaoqiao couldn't help herself and reached out to touch the photo on the tombstone, her fingers brushing across her mother's young cheek.
Sudden.
Ye Qiaoqiao seemed to have received some response, and unfamiliar memories drilled into her mind.
She was so shocked that she subconsciously stood still and looked carefully at the memories that emerged.
Waves and scenes after scenes, it all started with a little girl coming into this world.
"My daughter is so beautiful. She was so pretty right after she was born. I'll name her Qiao. From now on, she will be called Qiao Qiao." Commander Ye, who looked much younger than he was, was wearing a tattered military uniform, holding a newborn but pink and tender baby in his arms, and grinning at the beautiful woman who had just given birth on the bed.
The woman turned pale. Hearing this, she subconsciously reached out and said, “I want to see the baby.”
"Okay..." The young Commander Ye hurriedly held the child close to show the woman.
The woman looked at the baby in her arms with a gentle smile on her face.
Even if she was watching from the outside, Ye Qiaoqiao could feel the woman's love for her child, and she might be the mother she had never met.
Ye Qiaoqiao's eyes suddenly became moist without her noticing.
Suddenly, she saw the mother, who had just been holding her child warmly, suddenly opened her mouth and started vomiting blood.
Ye Qiaoqiao subconsciously opened her mouth and shouted: Save her quickly... Save her quickly...
But she threw herself forward and passed through everything in the hospital. She couldn't do anything to help her mother.
The young Commander Ye's face changed drastically. He held the baby in one hand and his wife in the other, and shouted in despair.
After a while, a nurse hurried over and pushed the woman into the operating room.
Commander Ye stood outside the green operating room door, the baby in his arms started crying. He wiped his tears and quickly went to borrow some rice porridge from someone before he could coax the child into silence.
But Ye Qiaoqiao's soul had already floated into the operating room.
She saw the woman bleeding heavily and the doctors trying their best to save her, but in the end they just shook their heads.
Ye Qiaoqiao felt her face was very cold, she reached out to touch it and found it was covered with tears.
She saw the bed covered in blood. The woman who had just been smiling at her child had now quietly closed her eyes and lost her vitality.
The cold straight line on the instrument seemed to be telling something.
Ye Qiaoqiao wanted to cry, and she cried loudly.
Then he saw the woman in the operating room being pushed out. The young Commander Ye, who had just coaxed his daughter at the door, saw his wife covered with a white cloth. The man's eyes turned red instantly, and he pounced on the woman. With trembling hands, he pulled open the white cloth and saw that his beloved was lying on the bed, never to wake up again.
The man cried bitterly, and the child in his arms seemed to feel it and started crying too.
For a moment, grief spread throughout the father and daughter.
Ye Qiaoqiao didn't know how long she had been crying.
The man didn't know how long he had been crying.
The scene soon turned into that of a funeral.
Ye Qiaoqiao saw her young grandma and grandpa, and her young uncle. She saw her uncle throwing himself on the coffin and reaching out to wake up his sister.
I saw my uncle being pulled away by relatives, screaming and crying, with tears and snot mixed together.
Finally, he hid in a corner and watched the woman being buried in the moist soil. Finally, there was no woman left in this world anymore.
With red and swollen eyes, my uncle quietly found Commander Ye in the middle of the night, who was sleeping uneasily with his child in his arms.
He raised his fists and started punching and kicking his brother-in-law.
"Give me back my sister, give me back my sister!"
"You killed my sister."
"Give my sister back to me!"
"If you don't give it back to me, I will kill you."
Commander Ye was awakened by the beating, and the child in his arms also started crying. He ignored his brother-in-law's attack, turned his back, and kept lowering his head to comfort the child in his arms.
His uncle, who was tired of fighting behind him, looked at him coldly, and took out a knife from somewhere and pointed it at Commander Ye's back.
“Don’t…” Ye Qiaoqiao subconsciously spoke to stop him.
But he could only watch helplessly as his uncle stabbed Commander Ye with a knife.
Ye Qiaoqiao pounced over.
I saw the knife suddenly stop when it touched my father's clothes.
It was Gu Jin who stopped himself. He stared at the little girl in Commander Ye's arms with red eyes.
The little girl had just finished crying, and her eyes were red. Her beautiful eyes, as clear as water, were full of confusion. However, Commander Ye looked at his daughter from the side with utmost tenderness and pain, and coaxed her with a choked voice.
Gu Jin's hands were shaking.
He tightly grasped his own hands and whispered, "I can't let Qiao Qiao be without a mother and then a father. I can't hurt Qiao Qiao. I can't hurt my sister's daughter... wuwuwu... I can't...
Gu Jin raised his sleeves to cover his eyes, turned around and ran out of the tent and disappeared.
"Xiao Ye, are you okay? I heard some noise just now. Is it that brat Gu Jin who is looking for trouble with you?" Old Master Gu heard the voice coming from the vigil and asked with a sullen face.
Commander Ye shook his head, "Father-in-law, no, it was Qiao Qiao who was frightened awake."
"I'll feed Qiao Qiao some rice porridge first, and then I'll go over to keep vigil. You and mother should come over and have some rest."
"You've only closed your eyes for two hours, how can that be considered a rest?" Old Master Gu said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and close your eyes. Qiao Qiao will still need your care in the future. You don't want my daughter to die with regrets, do you?"
"How could I? How could I let Lan'er die with regrets? Father-in-law, I feel so sad."
Mr. Gu's voice was a little unstable, and he trembled as he said, "You are a man! Stay strong. Lan'er's death was an accident. She didn't want anything to happen to her. She must have been reluctant to leave us. We'd better live well, live well for her, and take good care of Qiao Qiao. When we are old and in the underworld, we can also say to Lan'er that we didn't let her down."
