Chen Yuefei crawled into the kang and urged Jiang Yun quietly, "Hurry up! Once you're done, stay outside the door."
Jiang Yun squatted down and asked quietly, "Why did the soldiers arrest you?"
You can't be dragged into this for no apparent reason and be treated as an accomplice. If something really goes wrong, it will be a big trouble.
Chen Yuefei was anxious: "Hurry up, I will come out and tell you in a moment. Human life is at stake. Hurry up."
Jiang Jun looked so anxious that he couldn't pull it out no matter what he did. He had no choice but to squat down and put firewood into the stove.
Jiang Jun was startled when he heard footsteps outside the door. It was Zhang Xiuying who came back. He quickly stuffed the firewood in his hand into the door.
As soon as she put it away, Zhang Xiuying entered the kitchen. Seeing Jiang Yun squatting in front of the stove, she was furious. "Great, you wanted to make something to eat while I was gone, huh? Thief! Luckily I came back to get something, otherwise I would have thought there was a rat in the house!"
Jiang Jun's face turned pale, fearing that Zhang Xiuying had come back to cook. If Chen Yuefei came out, he would have no way to explain himself.
"What? You don't dare to speak? Are you mute?" Zhang Xiuying sneered, clicked the lock on the cupboard, pulled out the key and put it in her trouser pocket: "Knowledge is power. I see that you don't need to eat, so you eat, and see how much power you have!"
After saying that, Zhang Xiuying turned around and went to her room to get the ball of wool.
Someone knocked on the door in the backyard: "Open the door, open the door, is anyone home?"
Zhang Xiuying heard the noise and ran over to ask, "Who is it?"
The person outside the door shouted, "On duty, open the door. We need to come in to look for someone."
Zhang Xiuying peeked out through the crack in the door. Seeing two soldiers, she felt a little scared. "Wait a minute, I'll get the key."
The backyard door opened, and two armed soldiers walked in and looked around: "Did anyone come just now? We are searching for a suspicious person."
Zhang Xiuying was horrified: "What? Are they spies? We didn't see anyone coming to our house."
The two soldiers asked to search the house. In order to prove her innocence, Zhang Xiuying quickly took them to look inside and outside, opened the wardrobe for them to see, and diligently took the soldiers to see the study.
Jiang Yun went to open the lock, and the wound on the back of his head caught the soldier's attention: "What's wrong with your injury?"
It would be troublesome if he was injured by the bad guys they were searching for.
Zhang Xiuying quickly explained, "I fell a couple of days ago and haven't recovered yet. I'm resting at home."
The two soldiers questioned Jiang Yun carefully, looked around, turned around and went out to knock on the neighbor's door.
Zhang Xiuying breathed a sigh of relief, locked the back door again, took the ball of yarn, and hurried out to share this amazing news.
The neighbors' house was usually empty during the day. Jiang Jun was afraid that the two soldiers would suddenly come back to check, so he gently opened the window between his room and Jiang Lan's room, preparing to let Chen Yuefei out after a while and then hide him in the box in his room.
She could already conclude that Chen Yuefei must have jumped over the barbed wire, and something major had happened, otherwise, soldiers on duty during the day would not have fixed their bayonets.
If this is the case, she must be careful. Whether she is discovered by Zhang Xiuying or by the soldiers on duty, she will be in trouble.
Jiang Jun bolted all the doors, ran to the stove, and frantically dug out firewood. "Chen Yuefei, come out quickly."
Chen Yuefei crawled out dressed in black, his face and hands were covered in black dust, his body was covered in patches of black dust, and wherever he went he left a trail of black footprints.
Jiang Jun pointed at him and said, "Stand still!"
If I try to clean this up, I don’t know if I can wipe it off.
She ran into her room, took out an old bed sheet and spread it on the floor. She asked Chen Yuefei to step on it and walked into the room. She pointed to her room and said, "Use this as a cushion. Don't leave any marks."
Chen Yuefei understood and ran inside, pulling the bed sheet.
Jiang Yun was busy cleaning the stove.
After finishing it, he ran into his room. Chen Yuefei had already climbed in and closed and bolted the window: "I can't get out now."
Jiang Jun opened the box and spread out an old bed sheet. "Hide in here first. I'll let you out when it gets dark."
Before closing the box, Jiang Jun asked, "Wait, tell me first, why did they come looking for you?"
Chen Yuefei chuckled and said, "I went to steal a few bullets."
Jiang Yun almost shouted out loud: "Stealing bullets?"
Chen Yuefei stammered: "I didn't steal it, I didn't steal it." He pulled up the bed sheet and covered his head with it.
Jiang Jun didn't dare to ask any more questions, as she still had to check the aftermath.
Before dinner, Jiang Yun boiled water in advance so that Zhang Xiuying would not find any traces in the stove.
Jiang Yonghua didn't come back. It was Zhang Xiuying who told Jiang Lan: "There are bad guys in the compound today. Don't go out and play for too long. Come back before dark."
As a result, Zhang Xiuying couldn't sit still anymore. After eating, she took her sweater and went out to tell someone that the soldiers on duty during the day had come to her house to look for bad guys.
Jiang Jun quickly woke up Chen Yuefei and went out to find his "guards" for him. Those boys who usually played with Chen Yuefei found an opportunity to ride their bicycles to the door of Jiang Jun's house and took Chen Yuefei away in the chaos.
Through this "sneak attack and rescue", Chen Yuefei successfully avoided the punishment he deserved. From then on, he regarded Jiang Yun as his own. He even regarded the small hut in the backyard of Jiang Yun's house as a trustworthy "communication station".
Jiang Yun, the accomplice, had no idea that she had accidentally gained Chen Yuefei's trust just to avoid arousing other people's suspicion. She knew that things were not as simple as Chen Yuefei said, but she could not find a chance to ask what was going on.
After a few days of rest, Jiang Yonghua took Jiang Yun to the hospital for another checkup. He confirmed that she had no sequelae of the concussion and agreed to let her go to school, but she couldn't do any strenuous exercise. "You definitely can't attend physical education classes. Even if you sit on the back of a bicycle, you can't jump off."
In short, avoid all opportunities for jumping around.
Or, write me another week's sick leave.
Jiang Yun would rather take a pancake or two steamed buns to school for lunch than leave them at home, because Zhang Xiuying always finds ways to stimulate her not to eat or eat less.
Jiang Yun, who had never experienced verbal violence, decided to try to avoid Zhang Xiuying, who had a piercing voice. If she continued like this, she was not sure whether her ability to receive memories would still work.
Zhang Jie was waiting for her at the gate of the compound, pushing her bicycle. "Xiaojun, can I take you on my bike?"
Jiang Jun declined: "I can only walk. You go to school first. If I'm late, please tell the teacher to ask for leave for me."
Walking on the way to Qiaojiagou Town, the crops on both sides of the road are already half a foot high, and the green seedlings are swaying in the wind, full of vitality.
Jiang Jun was walking and admiring the scenery when suddenly Chen Yuefei popped his head out from behind a tree and called out to her, "Hey, do you want me to take you to school on my bike?"
