Cheng Maixiang was startled and looked in the direction Yingying pointed. She saw a wide river about twenty meters away from the woods. There were waves of water on the river, as if something had really fallen into the river.
"Jia Yu, big sister, please go to the river quickly. Someone might have jumped into the river!"
The four of them ran to the riverside and saw a girl soaking in the river, tossing up and down, and gradually her whole body began to sink to the bottom of the river.
Lin Jiayu took off his shirt, jumped into the river with a splash, and swam towards the girl with all his might.
Cheng Maixiang found a wooden stick as thick as an arm by the river. She held one end of the stick with both hands and threw the other end into the river.
After the girl fell into the water, she was soaked in the river water and drank a lot of water. She had long been unconscious. Now she felt someone holding her, and she immediately grabbed a life-saving straw and held on tightly.
Lin Jiayu's right hand was clamped by the girl who fell into the water, so he could only use his legs and left hand to swim. Seeing a branch thrown from the shore, he grabbed it with his left hand and climbed up the shore.
The girl was soaked all over. She wore little clothes in summer, and the clothes were soaked through, so they stuck tightly to his body, which was very indecent. Lin Jiayu dragged her ashore and turned away.
Seeing that she was pale, her eyes were closed, and water was constantly flowing from her mouth, Cheng Maixiang pressed her chest with both hands according to the first aid she had learned in her previous life.
Yingying squatted beside Cheng Maixiang, holding her chin and watching her every move curiously.
The girl who fell into the water spit out a lot of water from her mouth, and after a while, she slowly opened her eyes.
Lin Qingwan sighed softly, "Sister, you are so young, if you have something to worry about, just jump into the river!"
The girl was originally in a daze and seemed unable to understand the situation. But when she heard Lin Qingwan say to jump into the river, she seemed to understand and burst into tears.
"Why are you saving me? I don't want to live anymore. Don't worry about me, just let me die!"
The girl was crying loudly. Lin Qingwan was about to say something to persuade her, but Lin Jiayu came over without saying a word, picked up the girl and walked towards the river.
Lin Qingwan was startled and hurriedly stopped him, "Xiao Jia, what are you doing?"
"I worked so hard to rescue her, so it's fine if she's not grateful. But since she wants to die so badly, I'll help her."
Lin Qingwan knew her brother's temper. He hated people who threatened to kill themselves when something happened, especially girls who cried when something happened, which annoyed him even more.
The two were at a stalemate when Cheng Maixiang suddenly asked, "Miss, is your name Wu Jiahong?"
The girl was startled and turned to look at Cheng Maixiang. After a long while, she barely recognized her and cried out, "Sister-in-law, save me!"
It was indeed her.
When she was giving her first aid just now, although she had never seen her before, for some reason, she felt extremely familiar with her. This feeling seemed to come directly from her body and was beyond her control. She then realized that the original owner should know her, and she searched the original owner's memory and finally found her.
She is Wu Jiadong's sister, Wu Jiahong.
In her previous life, the original owner had a good life after marrying Wu Jiadong. However, since the college entrance examination was resumed and Zhao Linlin was admitted to the provincial university, Cheng Maixiang's hard days began.
When Cheng's mother was alive, the Wu family did not dare to bully her openly. They only indirectly accused her of not being able to have children, saying that a country woman was not worthy of Wu Jiadong, a college student.
After Cheng's mother passed away, the original owner's hard days began. She was despised and insulted by the Wu family every day. She was afraid to tell her brother, because if her brother came to support her, it would anger Wu Jiadong and he would directly file for divorce. She had been silently enduring it and her life was miserable.
Amidst all the pain, Wu Jiahong was the only kindhearted person who secretly helped her. Although she was not loved by Fang Chunlan, she still managed to warm her cold heart.
The Wu family is a typical patriarchal family. In Fang Chunlan's eyes, only Wu Jiadong can be considered as the child of this family. In order to let him stay in the town, she even asked Wu Jiahong, who was less than fifteen years old, to go to the countryside in the deep mountains, which was hundreds of miles away from home. She was not even notified to come back for her brother's wedding.
By the time Wu Jiadong graduated from university and entered society, the original owner no longer had the connections and ability to help her. For his future, Fang Chunlan did not hesitate to marry her daughter to an old man who was more than 30 years older than her. Later, Wu Jiahong could not bear the torture and eventually committed suicide by jumping into the river. Unexpectedly, in this life, Wu Jiahong's fate not only did not change, but the bad luck came early.
Since I happened to see Wu Jiahong committing suicide in this life, I will do my best to help her so that she doesn't repeat the same path as in her previous life.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, the resentment that had been surging in her heart immediately disappeared. Cheng Maixiang understood that this was probably what the original owner meant.
When Lin Jiayu heard Wu Jiahong call Cheng Maixiang "sister-in-law," he guessed her identity even without asking. With a sullen look on his face, he threw her to the ground fiercely. "Maizi has nothing to do with your brother anymore. She's my girlfriend now. If you keep calling me that, I won't be polite to you."
Wu Jiahong didn't care about Lin Jiayu's bad attitude towards her. She turned around and crawled over, hugged Cheng Maixiang's waist and cried loudly, her tears soaking her lapel.
Cheng Maixiang patted her gently and said, "Don't be sad. Tell Sister Maizi, what happened to you?"
Wu Jiahong was crying so hard that she was out of breath. Lin Qingwan couldn't bear to see it, so she took a handkerchief to wipe away the tears on her face and coaxed her for a long time before she barely stopped crying.
Wu Jiahong sobbed and said, "My mother told me to marry a paralyzed man. She said he was the son of the deputy director of the county steel plant. If I married him, my brother and I could go to the city and work in the steel plant."
