Chapter 17

Severe pain came from her forehead, just like the day she just came through, the pain was about to explode.

Warm blood flowed along the temples into the earlobes and then dripped onto the ground. The beams on the roof gradually blurred in Jiang Nian's eyes. The door was knocked open by an external force. Lu Yu's tall and straight figure appeared in the blurred vision

. The man picked up Jiang Nian with a tense face and ran out. Since returning home, Lu Yu felt that Jiang Nian was abnormal, so he kept a watchful eye. After his sister-in-law closed the door, he stayed in the yard, fearing that she would be in danger.

But despite all the precautions, Jiang Nian still couldn't stop herself from repeating the same mistake.

"Captain Song, Captain Song!"

Lu Yu's roar was very loud in the quiet night. For the first time, the usually calm and composed Deputy Captain Lu lost his temper. He held Jiang Niankong with both hands and kicked the door of Captain Song's house.

"What happened? What is this?"

Captain Song turned on the light bulb in the yard, and opened the gate with Feng Mei. They stared at each other and saw Jiang Nian in Lu Yu's arms, with half of his forehead stained red with blood. Feng Mei was so scared that she screamed, "What happened to Jiang Nian?!"

Lu Yu looked serious, and his low voice was a little hoarse, "He hit the wall."

"Oh! Then send him to the hospital quickly!"

Feng Mei was anxious and angry, "Jiang Nian must have been mad at Zheng Hong!"

Captain Song shouted at Feng Mei, "Be quiet, don't make a fuss!" He then said to Lu Yu, "Go to the hospital first, I'll borrow a car from the military district, and then ask Zhu Jun to drive over to take you." Lu Yu nodded

, Holding Jiang Nian, he walked quickly towards the hospital.

Feng Mei watched her husband leave in a hurry, and Lu Yu also walked into the dark night holding Jiang Nian.

She stamped her feet anxiously and saw that the yard lights of Liu Qiang's house next door were on. It was Liu Qiang who opened the door and walked out. Feng Mei's eyes lit up and she waved to him: "Captain Liu, please help me look after my two sons. I'm going to the hospital to see Deputy Colonel Lu's sister-in-law."

"Sister-in-law Feng, what happened to Deputy Colonel Lu's sister-in-law?"

Liu Qiang ran over and looked at Lu Yu and Colonel Song who had disappeared. He heard Lu Yu's voice in the house just now, as if something big had happened. Several families next to Feng Mei's house heard the noise and opened the door to see what happened outside.

Feng Mei immediately shouted at the top of her voice: "What else can you do? You can't live with Zheng Hong's bullying, so you hit your head against the wall and want to die? You just died, and you are bullied by Zheng Hong. You keep scolding me as a widow who killed her husband and father-in-law. Which woman can bear such a serious accusation? Even if Zheng Hong apologized, can she pretend not to hear her scolding?"

Liu Qiang frowned, glanced in the direction of Zheng Hong's house, and his mind changed towards Zheng Hong.

I didn't expect this woman to be so thoughtful.

Before, she told him how bad her life was and that she was forced to break off the engagement by her mother. Now that they both have their own families, he let go of the past and treated Zheng Hong as the wife of his comrade-in-arms. When she came to him for help, he helped her. He didn't expect that she had such a vicious face under her kind and soft appearance.

Liu Qiang said, "Sister Feng, let Xu Yan accompany you. It's dark at night and you two will have a companion."

Feng Mei said, "That's fine."

Liu Qiang went home and called his two sons first, asking them to stay at Aunt Feng's house first, and then went to the house to call Xu Yan. Xu Yan was lying on the bed with her back to the door, and she was indifferent to Liu Qiang's shouting.

She didn't want to see him, especially when she thought about the fact that Liu Qiang lent Zheng Hong fifty yuan but didn't want it until now, she felt even more uncomfortable. Her family lived frugally, and she was reluctant to give money to her parents' family, but in the end, all the money went to Zheng Hong.

When Xu Yan didn't get up, Liu Qiang pushed her shoulder with his hand on the bed: "Deputy Commander Lu's sister-in-law hit the wall and tried to commit suicide. She has been sent to the hospital. You get up and go to the hospital with Sister-in-law Feng."

Xu Yan wanted to open his hand, but when she heard that Jiang Nian was in trouble, she quickly got up from the bed, put on her shoes and ran out.

Liu Qiang: ...

Captain

Song and Zhu Jun drove out of the unit, and not long after they met Lu Yu running on the side of the road holding Jiang Nian.

After the two got in the car, Captain Song and Zhu Jun looked back. Jiang Nian was lying softly in Lu Yu's arms, her face was frighteningly pale, and her head was covered with blood. She was unconscious at the moment, grabbing Lu Yu's collar and talking intermittently.

"I'll go first."

"I'm going to find your eldest brother. I want to see if he's doing well."

Lu Yu's face was tense, and he hugged the fragile person in his arms tightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense, and don't sleep, we'll be at the hospital soon."

He could feel that his sister-in-law's breathing was gradually weakening.

Lu Yu clasped Jiang Nian's knees and arms with his palms, looking at her somewhat blurred eyes, with scarlet bloodshot gradually climbing up in her eyes, and felt a chill in his heart.

Could it be that in the next life, he still couldn't change the ending of his sister-in-law's previous life?

Zhu Jun held the steering wheel tightly, and suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart.

The sister-in-law who was still smiling beautifully in front of them at noon was dying and almost unconscious at night.

Captain Song said to Lu Yu, "Talk to her, don't let her sleep."

Lu Yu's throat was dry and uncomfortable, and he said heavily, "Yes."

He hugged Jiang Nian tightly, not letting her close her eyes, and told her about him and Xu Cheng in the army, how they were promoted from soldiers to battalion commanders step by step, and said a lot.

The usually taciturn person said a lot tonight.

Jiang Nian was headached by the noise. When she first closed her eyes, she vaguely saw a white light in front of her eyes. After the white light dissipated, she vaguely saw the outline of a modern hospital. Dad was sitting in the corridor, crying with his hands covering his face. Mom was sitting on the ground, looking at the dead body pushed out of the morgue with tears on her face.

Grandpa and grandma also came.

Jiang Nian saw her grandmother faint. Her grandfather lifted the white cloth on the corpse with shaking hands. She saw with her own eyes that the dead person lying on the cloth looked exactly like her. It was clearly her in the real world!

Jiang Nian was shaking all over and couldn't control her tears.

Lu Yu's voice came to her ears, and the blurry picture in front of her disappeared in an instant, replaced by Lu Yu's cold and handsome face. The man's eyes were full of bloodshot. When he saw her open her eyes, he smiled with difficulty, swallowed a few times, and then whispered: "Sister-in-law, we are almost there."

Jiang Nian was still immersed in the picture just now. She leaned weakly in Lu Yu's arms, and clearly recognized a desperate fact.

She couldn't go back.

From now on, she had to live with the identity of "Jiang Nian".

The

car stopped at the door of the hospital, and Lu Yu rushed into the hospital holding Jiang Nian.

The person on duty saw that it was someone from the army, and quickly called Director Wang, who had just returned home from work, back. In less than half an hour, many people gathered on the second floor of the hospital.

Director Wang used iodine to clean Jiang Nian's wound, and the nurse gave Jiang Nian an IV. They were busy for a long time before they finished. Looking at the wound on Jiang Nian's head, Director Wang's brows never relaxed.

Just now, I heard from her family that she hit her head against the wall.

The last wound healed only a few days ago, and now she has such a serious wound again. This is the first time Director Wang has seen how cruel someone can be to himself. When she hit the wall, she must have been determined to die.

When Feng Mei and Xu Yan rushed to the hospital, Jiang Nian was already lying in the ward with an IV drip on the back of her hand. It was unknown whether she was asleep or unconscious.

"Sister Feng, Sister Xu."

Zhu Jun called out to them when he saw them.

Captain Song was stunned for a moment: "Why are you two here? Where's the child?"

Feng Mei and Xu Yan ran all the way here. She took a few breaths and spoke with a little breathlessness: "I'll ask Captain Liu to help watch over him first. I'll come over first to see how Jiang Nian is doing."

She wiped the sweat from her head and saw that Jiang Nian had gauze wrapped around his head. The wound had dyed the white gauze redder. She walked to the bed and whispered to Lu Yu: "What did the doctor say?"

Lu Yu's throat was still a little dry: "The doctor said to see if he can wake up tonight. If he wakes up, he will be fine."

Feng Mei asked anxiously: "What if he doesn't wake up?!"

"Can you hope for something good?" Captain Song glared at Lu Yu, then lowered his head and patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, your sister-in-law will definitely wake up."

Lu Yu looked a little tired and said: "Captain Song, you all go back first, I'll just watch here."

Captain Song said: "Okay, I'll report to the team when I go back and apply for three days of leave for you. You stay here with your sister-in-law first."

Lu Yu nodded: "Okay."

Feng Mei wanted to say something, but was pulled away by Captain Song. When Xu Yan left, she glanced at Jiang Nian, who didn't seem angry, and prayed for her in her heart, hoping that she could get through this and open her eyes safely tomorrow morning.

After leaving the ward, Feng Mei reluctantly pushed away Captain Song's hand and glared at him: "Why did you pull me away?"

Captain Song had a headache: "What can you do there? You can only complain and quarrel with others."

Feng Mei:...

On the way back, Feng Mei asked Captain Song: "Old Song, the reason why Deputy Colonel Lu's sister-in-law hit the wall and tried to commit suicide is still because of Zheng Hong. What are you going to do?"

Xu Yan also looked at Captain Song.

She hoped that the regiment could drive Zheng Hong out of the family building and stop her from causing trouble for her family.

Captain Song said nothing, his face was full of irritation.

What else can be done?

Deputy Colonel Lu's sister-in-law was bullied by Zheng Hong and wanted to commit suicide. In the final analysis, it was Zheng Hong who caused the trouble. Now we can only wait for Jiang Nian to wake up first. Besides, if nothing happened, it would be good. Let Zheng Hong and Captain Lu buy more supplements and go to see her. Then admit the fault and apologize, and this matter will slowly pass.

If Jiang Nian is really hurt, this matter will be troublesome.

After struggling until late at night, everyone returned to the army. After Zhu Jun dropped off Captain Song and his wife and Xu Yan, he went to return the car to the military district.

The three men passed by the third house in the family compound. Captain Lu happened to open the gate. When he saw Feng Mei, Captain Song and Xu Yan, a trace of embarrassment and awkwardness flashed across his face. He knew about Jiang Nian's attempt to commit suicide by banging his head against the wall. He had just had a big fight with Zheng Thong. He was going to go to the hospital alone to check on Deputy Captain Lu's sister-in-law, but he ran into Captain Song and the others as soon as he opened the door.

Captain Lu asked, "Captain Song, what happened to Deputy Regiment Commander Lu's sister-in-law?"

"What else can it be? She's still unconscious. Whether she can wake up depends on tomorrow morning!"

Captain Song glared at him angrily, "Watch your wife and stop making trouble. If something really happens to Deputy Regiment Commander Lu's sister-in-law, our regiment will be in trouble too!"

Captain Lu lowered his head in embarrassment, "Captain Song, I will submit an application tomorrow to stay in the team and not go out for training. This way, I can go home every day to look after Zheng Hong and keep her behaved."

When he said the last sentence, he glanced at Xu Yan with a cold face.

He sighed in his heart. He knew everything about what Zheng Hong had done to Liu Qiang in the past two years. He also knew that because of Zheng Hong, Xu Yan and Liu Qiang had quarreled every now and then. To be honest, he felt guilty towards Xu Yan.

Captain Song said, "That's fine." He waved his hand again, "Okay, go back to sleep. Tomorrow morning, take your wife to the hospital to see Deputy Commander Lu's sister-in-law."

Lu Guosheng nodded, "Okay."

He closed the gate and turned around to see Zheng Hong standing at the window of the house, stretching her neck to look outside. When she saw him, she immediately retracted her head.

Lu Guosheng walked into the room with an ugly face, staring coldly at Zheng Hong who was lying on the bed and crashed to death: "Come with me to the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow morning to buy some brown sugar, eggs and peach cakes, and go to the hospital to see Deputy Regiment Lu's sister-in-law, and you should apologize to her again!"

His tone was bad, and he was obviously holding back his anger.

When Zheng Hong heard that she had to buy so many good things for Jiang Nian, she couldn't lie down all of a sudden, turned around and sat up and said: "It's her business if she wants to die, what does it have to do with me? I have already reviewed what I should review, why do you still want me to apologize to her

? And buy her so many good things?" Obviously, it was Jiang Nian who provoked her first, so she said those ugly words, but she couldn't say these words to Lu Guosheng.

Lu Guosheng was irritated by her unreasonable and unrepentant behavior. He glared at her with a gloomy face: "I have been training outside for the past two years and seldom came back. Don't think I don't know that you have been pestering Liu Qiang behind my back for the past two years. Let's not talk about the past. From now on, if I find out that you have been looking for Liu Qiang again, you will leave the child behind and go back to your parents' home." What

Zheng Hong fears most now is going back to her parents' home. She has gotten used to the good life in the family compound where she doesn't have to work in the fields to earn work points, nor does she have to cook for the whole family and please people's faces. She doesn't want to go back to her parents' home again.

"Got it, I'll go with you tomorrow."

Lu Guosheng walked to the bed, took off his shoes and lay down, looking at the dark ceiling, and asked again: "What else are you hiding from me? It's better to tell it all tonight, so that I don't hear anything outside."

Zheng Hong lay with her back against the wall, thinking about the fifty yuan she had borrowed from Liu Qiang over and over again in the past two years. Half of it was used to buy cloth to make new clothes for herself and the children, and the other half was used to improve her and the children's food in the past two years. From time to time, she would buy half a catty of meat and a bag of peach cakes and hide them for her and the two children to eat.

She didn't dare to tell Lu Guosheng, nor did she want to pay him back.

Zheng Hong closed her eyes and said, "No, I'm sleepy. Let's go to bed quickly."

The

next morning, the cleaner outside the hospital came first. Director Wang was on duty in the ward because of Jiang Nian last night. He came to observe Jiang Nian twice at night. Now it was dawn and he came again.

After flipping Jiang Nian's eyelids and checking her other conditions, Lu Yu stood by the bed, looking at Jiang Nian who was still unconscious on the bed, feeling uncomfortable and complicated. When Director Wang finished the examination, he asked in a hoarse voice: "Doctor, how is my sister-in-law?"

Director Wang breathed a sigh of relief. He had not slept all night and his face looked a little haggard: "Her condition is almost stable. I guess she will wake up soon."

After saying that, he couldn't help yawning and said, "You should do more ideological work on your sister-in-law. Don't let her do stupid things again."

Hearing that Jiang Nian was out of danger, Lu Yu's heart finally settled down. He nodded: "Yeah."

After Director Wang left, Lu Yu sat by the bed, staring at Jiang Nian's pale face in a daze.

Sister-in-law has never been as relaxed and happy as she was yesterday. He only noticed her abnormality, but didn't expect her to do something stupid.

After about half an hour, the person lying on the hospital bed finally showed signs of waking up gradually.

Jiang Nian's eyelashes trembled. She felt a severe headache and a little nauseous. Moreover, she felt dizzy while lying in bed. She opened her eyes uncomfortably, but before she could see clearly where she was, she heard a familiar voice in her ears.

"Sister-in-law..."

The voice was low and hoarse.

Jiang Nian slowly turned her head following the sound, and was startled when she saw Lu Yu sitting beside the bed.

Lu Yu, who always had a straight back whether he was standing or sitting, now bent his back slightly. His clean and handsome face looked a little haggard, with blue stubble around his mouth and bloodshot eyes, just like what she had vaguely seen last night.

Lu Yu did not blame her, but asked softly, "Are you feeling any worse? I'll ask Director Wang to come over and take a look."

Jiang Nian said, "Everything is fine."

Except for the pain in the wound on his head, and some dizziness and nausea, everything else was fine. It should be another concussion.

She looked around, then lowered her eyes in disappointment, and finally thought of the scene she saw last night when she was fuzzy. No matter how stupid she was, she knew that her body in the real world was dead, and she would stay here forever, living under the identity of another Jiang Nian.

Thinking of this, Jiang Nian couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

But fortunately, she has gradually adapted to life here. At least she still has Lu Yu to rely on. In the future, she doesn't have to worry about the plot anymore. Whether Lu Yu and Sun Ying's love can succeed or not, forget it.

From now on, the family compound is her home.

Jiang Nian looked up at Lu Yu who was sitting beside the bed. Seeing that his eyes were still on her, she hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

Lu Yu frowned and glanced at Jiang Nian's head, "Don't do stupid things in the future. Although my elder brother is gone, I'm still here. As long as I'm here, I won't let you be bullied. Do whatever you want to do. Don't care what others say or do. Just be happy."

Jiang Nian felt warm in her heart, knowing that Lu Yu was really doing good for her and treating her as a relative.

After daybreak, more and more people came to the hospital.

Director Wang came over and examined Jiang Nian again, and asked her to stay in the hospital for two or three days. She could go home if there was no major problem. As soon as Director Wang left, Feng Mei came with an aluminum lunch box. She walked into the ward and saw Jiang Nian's eyes wide open. She slapped her thigh and shouted, "Oh my God, you are going to scare me to death!"

Lu Yu stood up and said, "Sister-in-law Feng, then you stay with my sister-in-law first. I'll wash my face."

Feng Mei said, "Go ahead."

She then said to Jiang Nian, "Look at Deputy Colonel Lu. He carried you all the way from the family compound to the hospital last night. Such a grown man's eyes were red. Tell me what's bothering you. Don't you think about it? If something really happened to you, who would be the most proud?"

She said a lot.

Jiang Nian didn't listen to anything else, she just heard Feng Mei say that Lu Yu carried her and ran away.

Seeing the red bloodshot eyes and stubble in Lu Yu's face, she knew that he hadn't slept all night. She looked at Lu Yu who walked to the door of the ward, and she didn't know whether she was talking to Feng Mei or Lu Yu.

"I won't do stupid things in the future."

Feng Mei smiled and said, "It's okay as long as you figure it out."

Lu Yu walked out of the ward, and his tightly pursed thin lips finally revealed a relaxed smile. Feng Mei brought breakfast

.

Jiang Nian felt much better now. Feng Mei helped her sit up and leaned against the quilt. She asked, "Now that you are here, who will take care of the two children?"

Feng Mei handed the chopsticks to Jiang Nian, "Xu Yan will help me take care of them."

When she mentioned Xu Yan, she thought of what happened last night and said to Jiang Nian, "You went to the hospital last night. I wanted to come with you to see how you were doing, but I didn't expect Xu Yan to come too."

Jiang Nian drank a mouthful of porridge and was stunned for a moment.

Feng Mei smiled and said, "I didn't expect her to come. Although Liu Qiang asked her to come, she must be willing to do so."

"Deputy Colonel Lu."

Lu Guosheng's voice came from outside the ward. Jiang Nian turned around and saw that the first person to come in was Lu Yu. He had just washed his face, and the fatigue between his eyebrows had faded. The blue stubble on his face added a bit of wildness to his usually handsome face. He was wearing a military green military uniform, and his back, which had been slightly bent just now, was now straight.

He walked to the bedside, and saw that Jiang Nian could sit up and eat, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Guosheng and Zheng Hong brought their child Lu Zhijun into the ward. Zheng Hong held Lu Zhijun's hand and lowered her head without looking at Jiang Nian lying on the bed. Lu Zhijun beside her called out, "Mom, you pinched me and hurt me."

"Where did I pinch you?"

Zheng Hong's fingers loosened and she glared at him, refusing to admit that she accidentally clenched her hand because she was angry.

Lu Zhijun pouted in grievance and wanted to pull his hand out, but was glared at by Zheng Hong again. He had to give up the struggle and turned his head to look at the brown sugar peach cake and eggs in his father's hand. They were all his favorites, but unfortunately they were not bought for him.

Feng Mei sneered, and now she never looked at Zheng Hong with a good look.

Especially when she went to bed last night, she was telling Old Song what Zheng Hong had done, saying that she was really blinded by lard at the beginning, and she actually felt pity for Zheng Hong, and felt that Xu Yan was ignorant. Old Song glanced at her sideways, and said that she was not only blinded by lard, but also had a pig brain, and it was only now that she saw it.

Lu Guosheng put the things in his hand on the small square wooden table next to the bed, glanced at Lu Yu, and then looked at Jiang Nian who was bowing her head: "Deputy Colonel Lu's sister-in-law, I want to apologize to you first. It was my fault for not managing my wife well and letting her say such hurtful words in front of the military wives. The supplements that Zheng Hong and I brought are also a token of our appreciation. You should calm down and don't take it personally with Zheng Hong."

After saying that, he looked at Zheng Hong, signaling her to come over and apologize.

Zheng Hong raised her head and pursed her lips. Seeing that Lu Guosheng frowned, she was afraid that he would send her back to her parents' home in anger, so she took two steps forward, looked at Jiang Nian, and repeated what Lu Guosheng asked her to say on the way.

"Comrade Jiang Nian, I apologize for the hurtful words I said to you that day. I will never say such words to hurt you again."

After that, Lu Guosheng gently pushed Zheng Hong on the back. Zheng Hong clenched her fingers and hesitated for a long time before bowing to Jiang Nian: "Comrade Jiang Nian, I'm sorry, please forgive me."

Lu Yu looked at Zheng Hong coldly, then looked away at Jiang Nian. She held the aluminum lunch box in her hands and lowered her head as usual, as if she had trapped herself in a corner where no one could see her. She was silent and didn't say anything.

He didn't say anything, but waited quietly.

The atmosphere in the ward suddenly calmed down. Lu Guosheng frowned in worry, fearing that Deputy Regiment Commander Lu's sister-in-law would not forgive Zheng Hong and would complain to the political commissar about this matter.

Zheng Hong lowered her head, her eyelids covering the impatience in her eyes. She didn't know what this widow was so stubborn about. She had apologized and made self-criticism in front of the whole regiment. What else could be

done to her? How could she be so pretentious? Where did the energy that motivated her before go?

Feng Mei broke the awkward situation and gently patted Jiang Nian's other hand that was not receiving the IV drip: "Captain Lu brought up so many things to apologize, and he also said that he would discipline his wife in the future. In my opinion, let's just forget about it."

After all, they are from the same group and live close to each other. They will see each other sooner or later. It will not be good for anyone if the quarrel continues.

In fact, Jiang Nian was waiting for Feng Mei to say this. She nodded gently, her voice as soft as a mosquito's: "Then listen to Sister Feng."

She said this in a disguised way to give Feng Mei face. After all, she will stay here in the future.

Lu Guosheng looked at Feng Mei gratefully, and Feng Mei sat down immediately, feeling a little proud in her heart.

- See, my words are still effective, right?

After Lu Guosheng and his family of three left, Feng Mei said to Lu Yu, "I brought you some corn cakes. Eat some to fill your stomach."

She took out a plate of corn cakes from her cloth bag and handed them to him. Lu Yu took them and smiled, "Thank you, Sister Feng."

Feng Mei smiled and said, "Nothing to thank you for."

Lu Yu sat on another empty bed and ate the corn cakes. Feng Mei poured him a enamel pot of water and handed it to him, "Eat slowly. Don't choke."

"Your name is Jiang Nian?"

A nurse walked in from outside the ward. Jiang Nian's voice sounded familiar. She looked up and saw that the nurse who came in was the heroine Sun Ying in the book. If she hadn't had the head-on collision, she might have tried to match her with Lu Yu, but now she didn't have the energy anymore, and there was no going back anyway.

And looking at Lu Yu's appearance, it seemed that he really had no feelings for Sun Ying.

Jiang Nian said, "I am."

Sun Ying was stunned when she saw Jiang Nian's face, and her eyes paused on her forehead again. She didn't understand why her head was injured again. She changed the medicine for Jiang Nian, and when she turned around to leave, she saw Lu Yu sitting on the bed next to her drinking water.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the enamel pot in his hand. He was sitting there in a military uniform, just like what she had dreamed of last night. However, the scene in the dream was that she and this strange man were sitting on a train, facing each other, wearing the same military uniform and sitting in the same posture.

When she woke up in the morning, she couldn't understand why she dreamed of a man she had only met once.

"Yingying, Director Wang is calling you."

Wu Youshan's voice came from outside.

"I'm here."

Sun Ying left the ward quickly.

Feng Mei sat for a while, talked to Jiang Nian, and got up and left.

Lu Yu took all the things that Lu Guosheng sent and gave them to Feng Mei. Feng Mei was shocked. Although she was also greedy and wanted to feed her two sons, she was not shameless enough to ask for other people's things. She

hurriedly walked out of the ward and waved her hand, saying, "No, no, save it for your sister-in-law."

"Sister-in-law Feng."

Lu Yu strode over to block Feng Mei's way and stuffed the things into her hands: "This is from Zheng Hong, you take it, I will buy the food that my sister-in-law needs to replenish her body."

Not only Feng Mei was stunned, but Jiang Nian was also stunned.

Jiang Nian turned her head and looked at Lu Yu's angular profile. The man had no expression on his face and gave all the things that Lu Guosheng brought to Feng Mei.

She quickly lowered her head and pursed her lips to hold back her laughter.

She didn't expect Lu Yu to be so petty.

After seeing Feng Mei off, Lu Yu walked to the next bed and sat down, saying to Jiang Nian: "Sister-in-law, I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy whatever you want to eat."

Jiang Nian nodded gently: "Okay."

Lu Yu looked at her silent appearance, and couldn't help but think of her cheerful smile yesterday, which was full of youth. She

looked very beautiful when she smiled. The news of Jiang Nian hitting the wall to commit suicide spread throughout the family compound the next day

. The military wives privately said that it was Zheng Hong who wanted to force Deputy Regiment Commander Lu's sister-in-law to death. Which woman is willing to be a widow? And which woman is willing for her husband to die early? Jiang Nian stayed in the hospital for three days. On the morning of the fourth day, Commander Song asked Zhu Jun to borrow a car from the military region and drive to the hospital to pick up Lu Yu and Jiang Nian. This time the collision was even more severe than the previous one. After Jiang Nian landed on the ground, she felt a little dizzy. She held on to the small square wooden table beside the bed to slow down. Lu Yu came home in the afternoon of the first day and brought Jiang Nian's toiletries and a clean piece of clothing. He packed all these things into a cloth bag and turned around to see Jiang Nian holding on to the table. He handed the cloth bag to Zhu Jun, who walked over and half-knelt in front of Jiang Nian and said, "Sister- in-law, I'll carry you." Jiang Nian was stunned for a moment when she saw Lu Yu suddenly appearing in front of her. He was tall, and even if he squatted, he was not much lower than her. Jiang Nian stretched out her hands that were resting on the table to Lu Yu's broad shoulders and lay on his back. Lu Yu hooked his hands around Jiang Nian's knees and carried her out. She was very light, and she weighed nothing to him. He knew she was very light when he carried Jiang Nian back to his room for the first time when he came home. He didn't feel how heavy she was when he ran all the way with her in his arms last night. Maybe he should buy more delicious food for her to replenish her. After leaving the hospital, Lu Yu put Jiang Nian on the car seat and asked Zhu Jun to drive the car to stop at the supply and marketing cooperative and the food station. He got out of the car to buy a bunch of things and brought them up. Jiang Nian took a quick look. There were brown sugar, eggs, cream biscuits, and two kinds of chocolate candies in the old-fashioned packaging. There was also a chicken bought from the food station. Jiang Nian: ... Are you treating her like a pig? Zhu Jun was also shocked by the things that Lu Yu bought. You know, the things that Deputy Colonel Lu bought were equivalent to a month's salary for a squad leader like him. Moreover, if he continued to buy like this, Deputy Colonel Lu would not be able to save a month's salary. Deputy Colonel Lu was really generous to his sister-in-law. Back at the family compound, Lu Yu carried Jiang Nian back home. Zhu Jun helped carry the things and put them in the stove. After putting them away, he said to Lu Yu: "Deputy Colonel Lu, I'm going to the military district to return the car." Lu Yu said: "Well, thank you." Zhu Jun scratched his head and smiled and left. At this time, everyone had just finished breakfast and were chatting outside. The wives of soldiers gathered together and saw Zhu Jun driving away in the car borrowed from the military region. They all knew that it was Deputy Commander Lu's sister-in-law who was discharged from the hospital. Feng Mei knew that Jiang Nian was discharged today, so she prepared breakfast early. When she saw them coming back, she asked her two sons to go into Lu Yu's house with her, put the rice and dishes on the table, and walked to the first room in the east. "Jiang Nian, how do you feel? Is your head feeling better?" Feng Mei led her two sons in. Jiang Nian nodded gently: "Much better." She looked at the boys standing on both sides of Feng Mei, their little eyes were bright. The older one stood quietly beside them, and the younger one hid behind Feng Mei from time to time, and lowered his head embarrassedly when he saw Jiang Nian looking at him. Jiang Nian's heart choked a little. Now the two children are innocent and happy, but after the death of Captain Yan, Feng Mei is left alone with the two children. Her husband's family dislikes her and her parents don't want her. She vaguely remembers that the book mentioned that when the male protagonist went to see Feng Mei and the two children later, the two children were starving and skinny, and the youngest son Song Xianghong was burned into a fool because of a high fever and no money to see a doctor. Since she came here, Aunt Feng treated her very well and thought about her everywhere. But now she can't go back, and she doesn't have to worry about whether the plot is off track. She wants to help Captain Song's family avoid these unprovoked disasters. "It's better now. Don't do stupid things again in the future." Feng Mei glanced at her two sons beside her and patted them on the back of the head: "What are you doing standing there like an idiot? Call me auntie." Song Xiangdong shouted, "Auntie." Song Xianghong grabbed the corner of Feng Mei's clothes, hid behind her, stuck his head out, blushed and whispered, "Auntie." The mother said that the peach cakes they eat, the brown sugar water they drink, and the eggs they eat now are all thanks to this auntie. The two children looked at Jiang Nian with a more intimate look in their eyes. Jiang Nian smiled and responded, and asked Feng Mei: "Sister Feng, the eldest child should go to school, right?" Feng Mei said: "In September, but our army doesn't have a school, so we have to go to the school in the next village." Feng Mei said this and left with the two children. Jiang Nian stood up and walked to the door of the house, holding the wall. A slender hand stretched out in front of her and held her arm very measuredly. "I'll help you." Jiang Nian wanted to refuse, but she was still a little dizzy, so she didn't try to be stubborn, and was helped by Lu Yu to sit on a small bench in the yard. Feng Mei fried two dishes, one potato and one eggplant, and put four steamed buns on the plate. Lu Yu's eyes stayed on the steamed buns for a moment, knowing that Sister Feng was thanking him in this way. He was just offering flowers to the Buddha. Jiang Nian's appetite was surprisingly good this morning. Perhaps she decided to take root here and the knot in her heart was relieved. She ate one and a half steamed buns and drank a bowl of porridge. When Lu Yu saw that she had finished eating, he ate the rest of the breakfast. Jiang Nian looked around. Since she was going to settle down here, she decided to tidy up the courtyard, plant some vegetables, and buy some chickens to raise. She saw the chicken in the enamel basin by the well, which was chilled with well water. She thought that Lu Yu had given her all his money for safekeeping. Where did he get the money to buy all these things? Did he borrow it from someone else? She looked at Lu Yu hesitantly, wondering whether she should ask him. Unexpectedly, she bumped into the man's gaze. He seemed to know that she wanted to say something, so he put down his chopsticks and said, "Sister-in-law, do you have anything to say?"

Jiang Nian tugged at the corner of his clothes and asked in a low voice: "You gave me all your salary, so did you borrow the money to buy these things?"

Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, then raised his head to look at Jiang Nian.
