Chen Yuanwu explained the precautions to Jiang Yun, and when Jin Bu came to the gate of Chen's courtyard again, he asked Jin Bu to send Jiang Yun back to the Jiang family.
Seeing that it was the same person who brought Jiang Jun back, Hong Guizhen finally felt relieved: "I told you that your father is innocent, there must be nothing wrong! Have some more rice cakes. These are sent by your Aunt Bai. Qiangzi and Xiaolan were fighting over them just now, so I gave them two pieces each."
Jiang Jun didn't care. She didn't eat snacks much, especially at night. She wouldn't eat anything no matter how hungry she was. She wouldn't lose weight even if she ate a bite of sweets. "It's okay. Just let them eat more. Just eat as much as they can. Don't worry about me. Don't leave any for me."
Hong Guizhen sighed, "You've been shouldering all the big and small family matters, and you've become so skinny that your bones are sticking out. I'm worried you won't be able to handle it."
Jiang Jun smiled confidently. Who said she couldn't hold on? Chen Yuanwu was there to take care of her. "I'm fine, grandma. You and grandpa just need to take good care of Xiaolan and Qiangzi. I'm working now. I'm an adult now!"
Hong Guizhen was very relieved. Danier was so sensible. "Just now, your Aunt Bai didn't see you and was very worried. She told you to go to their house as soon as you hear the horn tomorrow morning. Go to sleep quickly. If you can't get up, your grandfather and I will call you."
Jiang Jun lay in bed, completely unable to sleep.
I was still thinking about how silly my expression could be when Chen Yuanwu tapped my forehead. Think about it, I was covered in dust in the hospital and asked others to wash my face. My temperament and image were gone long ago. It didn't matter whether I was stupid or not.
After a while, she thought of the unreasonable words she said to Chen Yuanwu at night. It was like her brain was having a seizure, and Chen Yuanwu was so angry that he couldn't speak. Jiang Jun was so annoyed that she wanted to repeat what she said at night. She always prided herself on her clear thinking and rationality, so why couldn't she control her mouth suddenly?
Jiang Yun sadly discovered that he was just as unreasonable as Zhang Xiuying...
I was lost in thought for half the night, sometimes feeling regretful, sometimes feeling at ease.
When Jiang Jun was about to fall asleep, she heard someone knocking gently on the back window. She was so scared that she opened her eyes suddenly. Her heart almost jumped out and she dared not breathe.
There was a rustling sound coming from the window, and a small note was stuffed in through the crack in the window.
Jiang Jun didn't dare to move, for fear that people outside would hear her movements, and she didn't dare to pull out the note to see what was written on it.
She was so nervous that she waited until the wake-up call rang. Hong Guizhen came to the backyard with her clothes on, unlocked the door, knocked on the door and called her, "Daniel, it's time to get up."
Jiang Yun then sat up, lifted the curtain and looked outside. Seeing no one was there, he took out the small note and put it under the mattress.
Jiang Lan ran over and called her, "Sister, there's something delicious, would you like to eat? We were waiting for you to come back and eat last night."
Jiang Jun replied weakly, "You and Qiangzi can eat. I'm not going to eat. If Qiangzi doesn't wake up, go with Grandpa to the service center and buy some fermented tofu. I want to eat steamed buns."
Jiang Lan's admiration for Jiang Yun had reached the point of total devotion. Even her mother was afraid of her sister at home, and her grandparents all listened to her. Her sister was the absolute head of the family: "Sister, the service center still has some noodle sauce. Do you want to buy some to make the stew? My birthday is in a few days, and I want to eat some longevity noodles, is that okay?"
Jiang Jun raised his arm and rubbed his face, shaking his head. "Noodle sauce won't keep for that long. If you want to eat it, just buy some today. I'll cook egg noodles for you on your birthday. I'll tell grandma later, and ask her to remind me that morning."
Jiang Lan jumped up happily: "Okay, I love eating the egg noodles made by grandpa the most. Then I will go out with grandpa."
Jiang Yun walked out of the hut in slippers.
Before daybreak, the second wake-up call sounded.
Hong Guizhen rushed out of the kitchen and rushed Jiang Yun back into the house: "Go in quickly! You're not wearing a coat, be careful not to catch a cold." Danier was the head of the family before her father came back, so she couldn't get sick. "I've discussed the food coupons you gave me with your grandfather. I'll buy some white flour during the day, some green onions, and some vermicelli noodles to make dumplings for you."
Jiang Jun shook her head gently. "Grandma, we can't be so fussy. There's no rush to eat the dumplings. Xiaolan just said she wanted to buy some noodle sauce. Let's all have noodles with gravy today."
Hong Guizhen put a coat on Jiang Yun and braided her hair. "Do you want to eat something before going to Aunt Bai's house, or eat after returning from their house?"
Jiang Jun looked at the sky and said, "I'll go first and come back later to talk."
It’s best to go out before dawn so that not many people will notice you.
Before the wake-up call was blown, Bai Xiuzhen had already lit the fire and the water in the pot was bubbling, waiting for Jiang Yun to arrive so that she could cook dumplings.
Jiang Jun arrived at He Xiangdong's house. The door was half open. She called out softly, "Aunt Bai," and saw Bai Xiuzhen trotting out of the house. She pulled her into the house and closed the door.
A middle-aged man came out from the inner room. He was not tall and had a stocky build. He had, uh, a typical, forgettable face.
Bai Xiuzhen hurriedly introduced: "Xiaojun, this is Xiangdong's father. He has something to tell you. Auntie will go make dumplings for you. Go inside and listen to what uncle has to say."
Jiang Jun nodded and followed He Zhenguo into the inner room, staring at the legendary sharpshooter intently.
He Zhenguo's eyes sparkled: "Why? Do you know me?"
Jiang Jun shook his head. "I don't know him, but Captain He's name is well-known. Our company commander admires you very much."
He Zhenguo smiled and said, "Xiao Bao?"
Jiang Jun was surprised: "How come you...?" Accurate in one try?
He Zhenguo laughed: "The one who admires me and is now the company commander is Xiao Bao!"
Jiang Jun closed his eyes and sighed, "Oh my god, I actually told everyone about our unit without realizing it."
He Zhenguo nodded: "Well, it's not your fault that you exposed the secret. I know everything. My job is to be a nosy person."
Jiang Jun chuckled: "Xiangdong has such a cheerful personality, so he's just like you, Uncle He!"
When He Zhenguo heard Xiangdong's name, his eyes narrowed into slits with a smile: "If you hadn't taken care of her and treated her so well, she would have suffered a lot more."
Jiang Jun felt embarrassed. When she was in the barracks, Xiangdong often helped her wash clothes and socks. "No, she always took care of me more!"
He Zhenguo put away his smile and changed the subject: "Okay, let's get down to business. Well, I've heard about your family's situation. Don't worry, I'll go find out for you. When I find out something, I'll write a note and put it in the crack of your window. You can burn it after you read it."
