Chapter 252 The Early-Death Fisherwoman in the Hong Kong Variety Show World - Passerby A 1
When Jiang Yue woke up again, she was lying on a particularly narrow bed. The moment she opened her eyes, she felt uncomfortable all over. Her throat was dry and sore, and she felt a little difficult to breathe. Jiang Yue coughed a few times, and her throat hurt even more. She rolled her eyes and looked around at the place she was staying. This place was even worse than the house she rented in her first life. It was messy and there was not even a place to put her feet.
"8888, receive the world storyline and memories."
This time, the original world she transmigrated to didn't have any world plot. After receiving the personal memories, Jiang Yue realized that she had transmigrated to Hong Kong, but it was Hong Kong in the 1970s. In this life, she was born in Hong Kong and her family had been fishing for generations. This time, she fell into the sea during a storm while picking up her father. Although her original father had rescued her in time, the stormy weather still took a lot of time.
Although she didn't drown on the spot, she likely developed a lung infection from drinking a lot of seawater. The original owner of this body was in poor health and died from the infection and high fever, which is why Jiang Yue transmigrated here.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was home, Jiang Yue quickly took out a pill from her spatial storage and ate it. The pill had an immediate effect, and she recovered from her illness in no time. After sorting through her memories, Jiang Yue had a certain understanding of her family. Her grandfather had died early, her grandmother was still alive, and there were seven people in the family: her father, mother, brother, sister, and Jiang Yue herself.
Grandma usually takes care of Jiang Yue and her younger sister at home. Father fishes to support the family. In addition to taking care of the family, Mother also has to squeeze out time to go out and sell pancakes and the seafood that Father catches that isn't of good quality. Her older brother and sister have all gone out to find work. Without education or skills, they can't find proper jobs and can only do odd jobs.
Jiang Yue is 12 years old and can't afford to go to school. No one wants to hire her for odd jobs. Her younger sister is even younger, only 6 years old. She usually runs errands. A few days ago, because of the typhoon, she went to the pier with her older brother and sister to pick up their father. She accidentally fell into the sea. After being pulled out, she had a fever and died.
After sorting through her memories, Jiang Yue looked at her current home again. This place, less than 20 square meters, had seven people living there, along with the family's belongings. Okay, her primary goal was to make money and move to a different place, otherwise she would have to sleep on the floor once she recovered. At first, Jiang Yue complained that the bed was too small, but it turned out that the bed belonged to her grandmother. She had only been able to sleep on the bed these past few days because she was sick; she usually slept on the floor.
As Jiang Yue pondered how to take out the money in a reasonable way, someone from her family returned home. Jiang Yue quickly lay back down on the bed and waited a while before hearing her younger sister's voice: "Grandma, why isn't my sister's illness getting better? Last time I was sick, didn't I get better after taking bitter medicine for two days?"
"Sister, you've been taking this for three days now, why are you still lying in bed?"
"Don't worry, it'll be ready soon! After you finish this bowl of medicine, I can go play with you."
"Did Grandma prepare candy for my sister? This medicine tastes bitter and doesn't taste good."
"Ready, ready." Grandma spoke as she carefully opened the door, afraid of spilling the medicine in her hand. The moment the door opened, Jiang Yue also turned her head to look. Just like she remembered, both of them were quite thin. Grandma seemed to have aged even more in the few days she hadn't seen her.
"Sister! Sister's awake! Grandma, look, sister's awake!"
When Jiang Yue woke up, her younger sister Jiang Xin bent down and crawled under her grandmother's arm, running straight towards Jiang Yue. The original owner of this body loved this younger sister very much, and Jiang Yue inherited the original owner's feelings, also loving this sensible little girl very much.
Jiang Yue patted her younger sister's head as she leaned in and called out to her grandmother, "Grandma!"
"Oh, Yue'er, you scared Grandma to death! Grandma almost lost half her life."
After saying that, he put the medicine on the only table in the room, hurried a few steps to the bedside, touched Jiang Yue's forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the fever had subsided.
After confirming that Jiang Yue was alright, he gently patted her a few times: "Look at you, not watching your step! Luckily your dad rescued her in time, otherwise she would be dead. You have to be more careful in the future, you hear me?"
Jiang Yue nodded, and her grandmother brought the medicine she had just brewed over to her. After helping Jiang Yue sit up, she made her drink the medicine: "Come on, although the fever has gone down, to prevent it from coming back tonight, you should still drink the medicine to consolidate the effect."
Jiang Yue obediently drank the medicine. It wasn't poison, and the medicine was still effective, so it wouldn't matter if she drank it. After Jiang Yue finished the medicine, her grandmother put a piece of candy in her mouth and then fed one to Xin Xin, who was looking on expectantly. After that, she took the bowl and went out, saying that she was going to cook some porridge for Jiang Yue, since she hadn't eaten for several days and wanted to eat something light.
After Grandma left, little Xin Xin chattered excitedly to Jiang Yue, sharing her funny stories about school. Jiang Yue listened attentively, occasionally expressing surprise and saying things like, "Really? Xin Xin is so amazing!" The little girl's smile never faded.
After a while, Grandma finished cooking the porridge. The others hadn't returned yet. Jiang Yue, a patient, and Xin Xin, a little child, ate before the adults. After finishing the meal, Jiang Yue felt sleepy. Although she was better, she hadn't rested well for the past few days. Jiang Yue didn't resist and fell asleep as she felt sleepy.
After Jiang Yue fell asleep, her grandmother touched her forehead to make sure she was asleep and not unconscious. Then she took Xin Xin out to play. When Jiang Yue woke up, it was already the next morning. She was the first one to wake up. She opened her eyes and saw that it was still dark and the house was quite dim without the lights on.
After getting used to it for a while, Jiang Yue saw that the curtains in the room had been hung up, dividing the space into sections. Next to her was Xin Xin, who was pouting and making noises as if she was dreaming about something delicious. In addition, there were snores coming from Jiang Yue’s father and brother.
Jiang Yue stretched her stiff body, not expecting that such a small movement would wake her parents. Jiang's mother opened her eyes first, and after pulling back the curtain, she saw Jiang Yue stretching her body: "Yue'er, what's wrong? Are you still feeling unwell? Do you have a fever again?"
As Jiang Ma spoke, she lowered the curtain and put on her clothes. The noise of dressing woke up Jiang Fu, who was sitting next to her. After getting dressed, Jiang Ma went to Jiang Yue's bedside, touched her forehead, and then touched her body. To make sure she didn't have a fever, she asked, "What's wrong? Are you still feeling unwell? Do you need to go to the toilet?"
"Mom, I'm fine. I just lay there too long and my body got stiff, so I wanted to move around a bit."
While Jiang Yue and her mother were talking, Jiang's father also got dressed and tiptoed over. Like Jiang's mother, he first touched Jiang Yue's forehead. After confirming that Jiang Yue's fever had subsided, both of them smiled. These days, a fever breaking means that the person is alright.
