Chapter 1
"Bleeding! There's so much blood that it won't kill anyone, right?!"
"I, I didn't kill anyone. I didn't kill her. She lost her balance. It's none of my business."
"Well, what should we do now? Should we send him to the hospital?"
"Why send him to a hospital? The bad guys deserve to die."
"We are unlucky today. It is really bad luck to let them go for now."
A group of young people ran away cursing. Inside the dilapidated house, a young girl was lying unconscious on the ground. Her forehead was covered in blood, and the bright red blood flowed from the wound to her face.
"Sister, please wake up soon. Don't sleep anymore. I'm so scared to be alone. Please open your eyes and look at me. I don't want you to die. Wuuuuu..."
Jiang Suihan felt as if she was in darkness and drowsy. She had a very long dream, just like watching a silent movie, in which she saw "her own" life.
She used to live a carefree life, but her family suffered a drastic change overnight. Her father was dismissed from his job, and the family was forced to move out of their original residence and live in a small shabby house.
However, those people did not let the Jiang family go. Her father had one leg broken, and he had to sweep the streets every day despite his illness. His condition became more and more serious, and he passed away in less than two months, leaving her and her brother to depend on each other.
The brother and sister lived a very hard life. They were not well fed or clothed, and were bullied. Just when she was feeling particularly desperate and helpless, her aunt introduced her to a man and told her that his family was well-off and that she could live a good life after marrying him.
She hesitated for a long time, not wanting her brother to continue living in fear with her, so she finally agreed.
Unfortunately, she underestimated human nature. The man treated her very well at first, but his true colors were revealed not long after the marriage. He often abused her at home, leaving her with bruises all over her body, without a single piece of healthy skin.
She couldn't bear it and resisted him, but was strangled to death by the man. In order to cover up his crime, the man pushed her into the river in the middle of the night and pretended that she had fallen into the water and drowned.
After she died, her brother was no longer useful and was kicked out. How could a child of a few years old survive in this world? A few days later, someone found a skinny little boy dead under the bridge.
Because what happened in the dream was too infuriating, Jiang Huihan woke up in anger. When she woke up, her body was still shaking, which showed that she was very angry.
She vaguely heard someone crying in her ear, crying miserably, like an annoying fly buzzing in her ear, which never stopped and made her head ache. She opened her eyes dazedly: "Stop crying."
She thought she spoke loudly, but in fact her voice was weak and her throat was hoarse.
Jiang Leyun lay half-lying on the quilt, crying so hard that he didn't even notice that his sister had woken up.
In less than half a year, my father passed away, and now my only relative is lying in the hospital, uncertain whether he is alive or dead.
He was a child not even seven years old and felt like the sky was falling. He cried and prayed that his sister would wake up quickly and not leave him alone.
Jiang Huihan felt dizzy and nauseous. She caught a glimpse of the child's head and raised her voice, "Stop crying."
When Jiang Leyun suddenly heard his sister's voice, he felt as if someone had strangled his throat. He stopped crying and raised his head, meeting Jiang Huihan's eyes.
The little girl looked at Jiang Huihan with surprise, pursed her lips, and then burst into tears. She cried so miserably and heartbrokenly that anyone who heard it shed tears.
He threw himself on Jiang Huihan, his eyes red and swollen, grinning happily: "Sister, you finally woke up, I thought the doctor lied to me, I was so scared that you would fall asleep like dad and never wake up again, that's great!"
The doctor said that Jiang Suihan hit her head and had a big cut on it. Her injury was serious and she needed to rest. If the situation is good, she might wake up at night.
But Jiang Leyun still felt very scared. His father was gone, and now his sister was in trouble too. It was amazing for a seven-year-old boy to be able to do what he did now.
Jiang Suihan felt her head hurt even more. She endured the itchiness in her throat and said with a straight face, "Stop crying. Go get me a glass of water."
When the hoarse voice came out, she felt uncomfortable all over, just like the sound of fingernails scratching on brown paper, unpleasant.
I haven't had any water all day and my lips are chapped.
Jiang Leyun is a good brother who listens to his sister very much. He raised his hand and wiped away his tears: "Then you be good and wait for me to come back."
After saying that, he picked up the enamel cup on the table and rushed out of the ward.
Jiang Suihan lay on the bed with a frown on her face.
She recalled the memories of her previous life. To be precise, she was born with a back-fetal rotation. Before that, she was a local girl. Before the Jiang family's accident, she lived a happy and beautiful life without any worries. Now, after waking up from an injury, she found that she had such a magical experience. She suspected that the Meng Po soup was diluted with water.
If we could remember things from our previous life earlier, many things could have been avoided, and the Jiang family might not have ended up in their current situation. However, now is not the time to dwell on the past, as there is an urgent matter that needs to be dealt with.
The "Jiang Suihan" in the dream had a miserable life. She was a good girl who was deceived by her relatives. She thought she would have a stable life after getting married, but she didn't expect that she had just escaped from the wolf's mouth and fell into the tiger's den. She died in the end. Even her beloved brother did not have a good ending.
Although she is not the "Jiang Suihan" in the dream, she can feel "her" despair.
Jiang Suihan didn’t know what the meaning of this dream was. Was it that God suddenly showed kindness and gave her a reminder so that she could avoid disasters in the future, or was there something else in it that she needed to pay attention to?
I can't figure it out.
If she wanted to verify whether what happened in the dream was true, it was actually very simple. If she remembered correctly, the day after she was injured, her aunt came to see her and brainwashed her with words, persuading her that getting married was her best choice, whether for herself or for her brother.
She would not be as silly as the "her" in the dream, foolishly trusting the "good words" of so-called relatives. Believing that other people's kindness is the most unreliable thing.
The ten-year event has just begun and there are still seven or eight years before it ends.
Given the current situation of the Jiang family and her and her brother's extremely embarrassing identities, how they can continue to survive here is a very tricky problem. Things like what happened this morning will only happen more frequently in the future, and the situation may even become more serious.
She must prepare in advance so that she won't have to leave everything to fate when the time comes.
Forget about finding a job. First, I have no connections. Second, I have no money. Third, my identity is awkward. So the only option left is to go to the Youth League Office to sign up to go to the countryside. But this is the worst option.
She grew up in the city and had never done farm work. It wasn't that she was afraid of doing farm work, but she was worried that with her small body, she might not be able to support herself, let alone her younger brother.
Moreover, if she went to be an educated youth, it would be a question whether she could take her brother with her. Household registration management was very strict in those days, and population mobility was not an easy thing.
Jiang Suihan felt that her current situation was worrying. The more she thought about it, the more her head hurt. She raised her hand and touched the jade pendant on her neck, thinking, it was a good thing that it was not snatched away by that group of people, otherwise all this blood would have been shed in vain.
In the morning, a group of young men rushed into the house aggressively and started smashing and rummaging through the house without saying a word. However, they couldn't find what they wanted. They accidentally saw the jade pendant on her neck.
The jade pendant was of very good quality. She had carried it with her since she was a child. The man tried to snatch it away, but she refused and resisted hard. During the struggle, she was pushed to the ground and her head happened to hit a stone on the ground, causing her to bleed.
The young men were just a group of students, not very old. When they saw someone was injured and about to die, they panicked and left the person behind and ran away in a panic.
Jiang Suihan stared at the jade pendant with her head down, thinking to herself, in the novels she had read before, the protagonist had many adventures. For example, if he was lucky enough, he would pick up a jade pendant, and after dripping blood on it, he would awaken a personal space, a spiritual spring, an orchard, an invisible space, etc. Then the protagonist would use the space to show his skills, upgrade all the way, slap the faces of vicious supporting characters, succeed in his career, and gain a happy love.
I don't know if this jade pendant has such a function. Why don't I go back and try it with some blood?
Maybe she will be the protagonist.
