"Comrade Lu Lin was injured and has just been transferred back to the Yunzhou Military Region Hospital."
The vegetable in Jiang Manyue's hand fell directly into the basin, splashing a lot of water.
"You, tell me again, what happened to him?"
Jiang Manyue was shaking all over and her face was turning pale, but her eyes were fixed on the person who came to deliver the message.
"Family member, please calm down. Comrade Lu Lin's injuries are not serious. He has already undergone surgery at another hospital and has been transferred back to our military hospital for rehabilitation. He is not in danger of death."
Jiang Manyue's eyes were red. He said it so lightly. There was no danger to life. Could it be that the only serious problem was losing one's life?
And he specifically emphasized that his life was not in danger. I'm afraid he was really seriously injured and saved his life but not his other injuries...
Jiang Manyue was already starting to feel weak in the knees. She was afraid that Lu Lin might have lost his arms and legs, or even become paralyzed in bed. How would she explain this to the elderly people at home?
The Lu family really couldn't withstand this kind of blow. The eldest son was gone, and the youngest son was disabled. Isn't this going to cost the lives of two old people!
Jiang Manyue's legs were so weak that she could barely stand. Liu Xuemei quickly supported her and kept asking, "How badly injured is Lu Lin? Tell me! What kind of injury is it that's not life-threatening? You're driving me crazy!"
The messenger touched his head and said, "It's not life-threatening. He was hit by shrapnel, but it didn't hit a vital part. It was removed by surgery. It's a minor injury. There are more serious injuries!"
Jiang Manyue and Liu Xuemei were relieved after hearing the first few sentences, but the last sentence made them nervous again.
"Who else is more seriously injured? Comrade, do you know his name?"
The messenger shook his head. "It's not from our military district. I don't know what it's called."
Hearing that it wasn't from the Yunzhou Military Region, the two finally felt relieved. Liu Xuemei nudged Jiang Manyue and said, "Manyue, go with me to the hospital first. If you need anything, come back and get it. I'm at home, don't worry."
Jiang Manyue nodded at her and quickly followed the messenger to the military hospital.
They soon arrived at the military hospital. Jiang Manyue followed the man into the ward and saw Lu Lin half leaning against the head of the bed with an infusion bottle hanging on his hand.
The messenger saluted Lu Lin, then closed the door and left.
Lu Lin looked at Jiang Manyue with a guilty look on his face.
Before leaving, he promised her that he would come back safely, without losing a single hair. Now he was lying on the hospital bed and had another operation. He really didn't know how to face Jiang Manyue.
Jiang Manyue just looked at him without moving or approaching, which made Lu Lin even more nervous.
"Wife, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Don't be angry."
Jiang Manyue's tears immediately fell. "Didn't you say you would come back safe and sound? Do you know how scared I was when that person told me you were injured?"
Lu Lin was heartbroken. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Please don't cry."
As Lu Lin was about to pull out the needle and get out of bed, Jiang Manyue rushed over and held him down, crying and angrily questioning him, "Are you sick? Do you still want to hurt yourself?!"
Lu Lin said innocently, "It's inconvenient for me to get out of bed with the needle, and I can't hold you if you stand too far away."
Jiang Manyue was so angry that she wanted to give him a punch, but he was still lying on the hospital bed, so Jiang Manyue could only remember it in her heart.
"I'll deal with you after your injury heals. I've got all this down for you."
Jiang Manyue put Lu Lin's hand where the needle had been inserted, wiped her tears, and asked, "Where is the injury? How did you get hurt?"
Lu Lin used his free hand to lift the quilt and pointed at his waist and abdomen. "There's a shrapnel here. The situation was urgent. If I hadn't rushed over, a young soldier would have been shot through. Wife, that's a life. I can't just watch him die."
Jiang Manyue was silent. What could she say with such a reason?
She didn't want Lu Lin to get hurt, and the same went for the families of all the other soldiers. If Lu Lin was only slightly injured and could save a young life, it would be worth it.
"That soldier's family must be waiting for him to return home, just like me. You saved him, and you saved a family."
Jiang Manyue touched the gauze covering Lu Lin's wound and said, "Saving a life is worth it."
Lu Lin smiled, "I knew my wife couldn't blame me. You have a good heart and will definitely understand me."
Jiang Manyue was still quite worried about his injury. "Did the doctor say how long it would take for you to recover? Is it the same as last time?"
The last time Lu Lin returned home was because of an injury. At that time, he was already able to move freely and had recovered for more than a month. This time he is still lying in bed, and I don’t know how long it will take for him to recover.
"The doctor said I can be discharged after the stitches are removed. I'll be back home for a while and it should be about the same as last time."
Lu Lin told Jiang Manyue what the doctor said half-truthfully.
He was afraid that Jiang Manyue would worry, so he didn't tell her that this injury was more serious than the last time and the recovery period would not be that short. It would probably take at least two or three months for the wound to heal completely.
Jiang Manyue thought it was similar to last time, so she didn't say anything. However, she had to take care of Lu Lin, so Lu Jun'an could only be entrusted to Liu Xuemei.
"By the way, when will Brother Cheng be back? Xuemei is worried about him too. The person who brought the message said there were people who were more seriously injured than you. He almost scared Xuemei and me to death. Luckily he said it wasn't from our military district, otherwise Xuemei would have fainted."
Lu Lin smiled, "Brother Cheng is fine. He can't come back until the mission is over. I was injured and transferred back to the military hospital in advance. The others are still on the front line..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Lin knew that he had let the cat out of the bag and immediately stopped talking.
Jiang Manyue's eyes widened. "What front line? Tell me the truth! Are you going to the front line to fight?!"
Lu Lin slapped himself hard in his heart. How could he have let the secret slip? Now it would be difficult to explain.
Jiang Manyue is not a fool, she was just flustered and did not put all the information together. Now that she thinks about it, everything points to one possibility, that is, they went to the front line to fight!
No wonder Lu Lin said that if he didn't rush forward, the young soldier would be shot through; no wonder the messenger said that there were people who were more seriously injured than Lu Lin. Such a dangerous situation could only happen on the battlefield.
"So they're all on the front lines and won't be back for a long time, right? If anyone comes back, it's like you, because they're injured, right?"
Lu Lin knew he couldn't hide it anymore, so he nodded and said, "Yes, as long as they don't come back, that's good news. If they come back, they'll either be dead or injured."
Jiang Manyue's throat tightened as she stared at Lu Lin's wound. "I know that minor injuries keep you from leaving the front lines. So, you must be seriously injured to be back here, right?"
