Pan Daniu squatted down, hugged Daya, and started crying again, saying between sobs, "Mother is sorry for you."
Daya patted Pan Daniu on the back, her voice a little choked up, "Mom, it's okay. We just didn't have dinner. The next day, Aunt Wang went to the canteen to buy us breakfast."
Family members have to pay to eat at the military mess hall. Da Ya and her family didn't have any money, and being timid, they dared not go to the mess hall to find food, so they had to go hungry.
No one else expected that Aunt Qiao would go to such lengths, locking up the grain.
Pan Daniu paused, raised her tear-streaked face, and looked earnestly at Wang Jingyi: "I will definitely pay you back this money in the future."
Even if she doesn't know how many years she will have to serve in prison, she will always remember this kindness.
Wang Jingyi shook her head and bought a few steamed buns and some plain porridge, which didn't cost much.
Su Yue and Wang Jingyi went back together.
Da Ya and the others were taken by Police Officer Chen to stay temporarily at the Women's Federation.
While they were talking inside, Officer Chen stood outside the door listening intently.
Upon learning that Da Ya and the others would be left without anyone to care for them after they returned home, this suggestion was made.
After thinking for a moment, Pan Danu nodded in agreement, and the other children, including Daya, obediently followed suit.
Back at the unit, Su Yue noticed Wang Jingyi occasionally holding her back and thought to herself: I must give her the water from my spatial storage tomorrow.
The water produced by the space today was all drunk by Su Yue after breakfast.
Fu Shen felt that he was in good physical condition and did not need to drink the water in the space anymore. He was worried that drinking it would cause trouble if he did not sweat in the hot weather, so only Su Yue drank it.
The next morning, after breakfast, Fu Shen opened his door and happened to see Yang Guohua hurrying towards him.
Before Fu Shen could speak, Yang Guohua saw him leave and quickly asked, "Has Yueyue gotten up yet?"
Fu Shen frowned slightly. "You're up. What do you want with her?"
Yesterday it was Wang Jingyi who contacted Su Yue, but today it's Yang Guohua.
Yang Guohua looked somewhat anxious: "Wang Jingyi carried Qiao Honghai's youngest daughter on her back yesterday, and her back pain flared up again. Today she's in so much pain that she can't even get out of bed. I have to leave the army today to take care of some things and won't be back until tonight. She can't be without someone by her side. I was thinking of asking Yueyue to help look after her."
Fu Shen had heard Su Yue mention Wang Jingyi's back pain last night, and knew that she was going to give Wang Jingyi the water from the space tomorrow.
At this moment, Wang Jingyi was resting on the bed. When she heard the door open, she thought it was Yang Guohua who had returned out of concern. Her tone was slightly reproachful: "Why did you come back again? Didn't I tell you that I would be fine after lying down for a while? You know what my back has been like these past few years... Yueyue, it's you."
As she spoke, she slowly turned her head, her previously tired face revealing a look of surprise and joy.
Su Yue walked quickly to the bedside, her eyes full of concern: "My godfather asked me to come over. Does your back hurt a lot?"
It looks like she can't even lie flat anymore; it must be in a lot of pain.
Wang Jingyi forced a pale smile: "It doesn't hurt much, I'll be fine after lying down for a bit."
This ailment, a result of childbirth, has plagued her for over a decade, and she's almost gotten used to it.
Su Yue had no idea. Yang Guohua had just said that Wang Jingyi had been in pain all night and hadn't slept a wink.
Seeing the heavy dark circles under her eyes, Su Yue didn't argue with her. She thought that the most important thing was to give her the water from her spatial storage as soon as possible.
She glanced at the cup on the table; she had seen Wang Jingyi drink water from this cup the last time she came to eat.
Su Yue asked softly, "Godmother, would you like some water?"
Wang Jingyi licked her chapped lips and weakly replied, "Drink."
In the morning, Yang Guohua was worried that it would be inconvenient for her to go to the toilet, so he cooked a bowl of noodles. However, he put too much salt in the noodles, and she could only manage a few bites before she couldn't swallow any more.
Su Yue walked over and quietly drew water from her spatial storage, bringing it to Wang Jingyi.
Considering that it wouldn't be good for her to drink while lying down, I put the cup aside and gently helped Wang Jingyi turn over.
