Jiang Yun suspected that the painkillers he took were fake.
She ignored the pain in her body while she was conscientiously memorizing the music score.
While accompanying Jiang Lan and her friends, she was unaware of any discomfort.
It was when Jiang Lan started to act like a crowd and actively wanted to sing folk songs that she began to feel pain in her waist. By the time she played the impromptu accompaniment for the third a cappella song, her waist was already in unbearable pain.
After finally making it to the curtain call, Chen Yuanwu came over to praise her, but found that she was pale and sweating profusely. Without saying anything, he carried her on his back and rushed to the hospital.
Jiang Jun refused. It didn't matter whether the injury was at home or in the hospital. "The dislocation has been straightened. Just go home and lie flat on your back and keep still."
Chen Yuanwu didn't put her down when he entered the house, but carried her upstairs in front of Ye Qingyin. She could feel Ye Qingyin's gaze burning holes in her waist.
When he finally lay down, Jiang Jun felt the pain in his waist radiate to every part of his body, as if he had returned to the moment when he first arrived in this time and space.
The same backache as if it were broken, the same splitting headache, the same suffocating pressure and burning suffocation...
Jiang Yun suddenly opened his eyes.
Chen Yuanwu did not let go, but squeezed Jiang Yun's shoulders even harder and deepened the kiss.
Jiang Yun passively accepted the transfer of heat and slowly began to burn.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yuanwu gently raised his head, a small flame flickering in his eyes: "Xiaojun, let's get this done, okay?"
Jiang Jun felt weak all over: "What's the matter?"
Chen Yuanwu's eyes were full of love. He moved his lips and was about to speak, but he heard the sound of a door opening and voices downstairs. He had to give up: "They are here. There will be guests soon. You lie down for a while. I'll be back soon."
Jiang Jun was dazed. "Who? What guests? Do you want me to help with the cooking?"
Chen Yuanwu smiled and said, "You are the hero today. I will just go to the kitchen to help."
Downstairs, the Chen family's living room was filled with laughter again.
The bandage on Jiang Yonghua's head had been removed, leaving only a piece of gauze on the wound on his forehead. There was no blood seeping out, and it looked almost healed. The wound on his body was hidden by his long-sleeved shirt, and judging by his gait, it was no longer a problem.
Everyone was asking Jiang Yonghua, "Your two daughters are amazing! They can carry an entire show just by themselves! How did you raise them? Look at you, you're usually so listless and silent!"
Jiang Yonghua was also puzzled: "I don't know what's going on. I usually see them drawing piano keys on paper, black and white, their hands getting filthy, and then they just play. There's no sound at all, and I can't tell the rhythm. It's all Xiaolan singing and dancing while Xiaojun just moves her fingers on the paper."
When Jiang Yonghua heard that Xiaolan had joined the art troupe ahead of schedule and that it was Xiaojun who helped her play the piano, he was both happy and guilty. He was happy that both daughters were more capable and promising than he thought, but he felt guilty that he almost implicated his daughters again.
Chen Zhong raised a hand and pinched his fingers in the air: "Xiaojun can play table tennis, speak foreign languages, play the piano, and cook. Hey, Old Jiang, what else can Xiaojun do?"
Jiang Yonghua felt ashamed. He didn't know anything Deputy Commander Chen said beforehand. He only found out after hearing about it from others. He felt that he might be a fake father: "Xiaojun is very smart. If she wants to learn something, she will learn it silently. You can't tell at other times."
Gao Lei was still thinking about Defending the Yellow River. "Oh, Xiao Jiang plays the piano really well. She's just standing there by herself, at the edge of the stage, but it sounds to me like there's a whole team playing there! Right, Xiao Wu?"
Chen Yuanwu tried his best to conceal his joy and smiled faintly: "It's like listening to heavenly music, and my ears are temporarily clear."
Gao Lei laughed heartily, pointing his fingers randomly: "Xiao Wu, you are not modest at all! What reward are you going to give Xiao Jiang?"
Chen Yuanwu said calmly: "When we get things done, buy her a piano to put at home."
There are still many good pianos in Beijing, and they are made in Russia. They are well-made and have excellent sound quality.
The important thing is, he knows where to get it!
Gao Lei sighed, "You're so generous! If Xiao Jiang wasn't into music, having a piano at home would be quite a luxury!"
Not to mention that ordinary families don’t have pianos. Many units are only equipped with foot-operated organs. Only top music conservatories or national theaters have high-end pianos. Those who can have a piano at home are all national master musicians and composers.
Chen Zhong expressed his support: "Okay, Xiao Wu, if the money is not enough, I will give it to you."
Gao Lei joked with Jiang Yonghua, "Section Chief Jiang, isn't the betrothal gift that Deputy Commander Chen's family gave your daughter quite generous?"
Jiang Yonghua said respectfully, "This is Xiaojun's blessing. It's the trust of Deputy Commander Chen and Staff Officer Chen."
Chen Zhong smiled and said, "Old Jiang, we're both soldiers. To make a long story short, our Xiao Wu has been set on your Xiao Jun from the very beginning. Although they are both young now, they have known each other for a long time. Commander Gao is here, so let's be witnesses for our two families and finalize the marriage for the two children. Let's pick a date and get it done for them!"
Jiang Yonghua was stunned. Although Chen Yuanwu had already visited him and he was satisfied with this son-in-law, he suddenly mentioned marrying his daughter off. He felt a pang of sadness in his heart. "Ah! I'll talk to Xiaojun about it when I see her later."
Gao Lei was amused: "Other families ask the parents when their daughters get married, why do you ask the daughters?"
Jiang Yonghua's eyes moistened, and he smiled sheepishly: "Xiaojun is very opinionated, and I listen to her in many things."
Gao Lei waved his hand: "You can ask about anything else, but not this. Why are you asking? 'Girl, are you willing to get married? I do. When is the wedding? Tonight.' It makes our daughter seem so unreserved. You can't let her say she doesn't want to!"
Everyone laughed at what he said, and when they thought about it, it made sense!
Jiang Yonghua felt even more embarrassed: "Okay, then I'll listen to Deputy Commander Chen!"
Gao Lei smiled and said, "That's right! That's great! In my opinion, today is the best day. The children are here, and both families are together. This lunch will officially mark the engagement. Hey, if it were me, I would just get married right away. Otherwise, people will be going out on missions, returning to the team, and going to work, and I don't know when we'll be able to get everyone together!"
Chen Yuanwu was listening at the side and was very happy. Uncle Gao was such a great helper!
Seeing that Ye Qingyin was unhappy, Chen Yuanwu had already thought about how to comfort his mother.
