Chapter 2 Family 1

　　In short, He Yan's notoriety was further extended in the family compound, and the children and female comrades became even more afraid of him.

　　However, Jiang Yingying doesn't know about this now.

　　She nodded under He Lingwan's concerned gaze, and then took the paper and pen she had prepared.

　　Taking the paper and pen, Jiang Yingying wrote the word "thank you" first.

　　Seeing her beautiful handwriting, He Lingwan smiled.

　　"No need to thank me. I just did what I should do. The one who sent you to the hospital is the one who saved you." He Lingwan said, "If they hadn't sent you here in time, you would have been in danger."

　　As for what the danger was, He Lingwan did not say clearly.

　　But Jiang Yingying remembered the feeling of being on the verge of death in the cold river water. She pursed her lips and put pen to paper again.

　　"I should thank you. Thank you for saving me. If it weren't for you, I would not have survived."

　　"Young comrade, where are you from and how did you end up falling into the Jinsha River?"

　　"Also, what happened to your injuries?" He Lingwan asked, "Don't be afraid, this is a military hospital. If you have been wronged, tell me and the organization will take care of it for you."

　　"Yes, did anyone bully you?"

　　Comrade? Military hospital? Organization?

　　Jiang Yingying felt a sharp pain in her head and covered her head with her hand. Her face turned pale in an instant.

　　"Are you okay?"

　　"Headache?"

　　"Well, a headache is no small matter. I'll make arrangements for you to have a comprehensive examination later."

　　"Little comrade?"

　　"Zhang Yuan, come and lend a hand. We'll send her over for a checkup..."

　　"Oh, okay, Dr. He."

　　When Zhang Yuan came forward in a panic, Jiang Yingying came back to her senses. She looked at He Lingwan, who was concerned, and Zhang Yuan, who was anxious, and smiled at them.

　　She waved her hands to indicate that she was fine, but He Lingwan pushed her to do a series of more detailed examinations without question.

　　It was almost mid-afternoon when the examination was finished. He Lingwan had another patient on hand, so she only stayed with him for a while, then told Zhang Yuan to stay with Jiang Yingying and left first.

　　Afterwards, Jiang Yingying felt that her biggest problem was that she couldn't speak, and there were no major problems in other aspects.

　　She didn't want to trouble Zhang Yuan, so she let her leave first and she could do the examination by herself.

　　After hesitating for a long time, Zhang Yuan saw that Jiang Yingying did not look reluctant and she had several patients who had not yet had their dressings changed, so he left as well.

　　Jiang Yingying knew very well that there was nothing wrong with her body. She was just like that before because she had recovered her original memory.

　　But she went for all the checkups anyway, and on her way back to the ward, she ran into a child head-on.

　　The child blinked and hesitated for a long time, then asked uncertainly, "Auntie?"

　　After shouting, Jiang Yang looked at Jiang Yingying several more times, and then shouted loudly into the ward behind him: "Dad! Mom! It's Auntie!"

　　Jiang Yang took small steps forward and held Jiang Yingying's hand.

　　"Aunt! I'm Yangyang! My parents and I are so worried about you!" As he said that, he looked at Jiang Yingying's condition in front of him and frowned.

　　At this time, a pretty woman rushed out of the ward.

　　The first time she saw Jiang Yingying, her eyes were red.

　　"Yingying..."

　　Looking at Xu Zhishu in front of her, Jiang Yingying pursed her lips uncomfortably, and she spoke awkwardly to comfort him.

　　"Sister-in-law, don't cry..."

　　Xu Zhishu kept wiping away tears, she sobbed, "Sister-in-law should go to the station to pick you up. You don't know the way around here, aren't you scared to come here alone?"

　　But when Xu Zhishu's eyes fell on the horrible purple marks on Jiang Yingying's neck, her expression became angry and fearful.

　　She looked around, took Jiang Yingying's hand, and said, "This is not easy to talk about. Let's go in."

　　After entering the ward, Jiang Yingying met the eyes of the man lying on the bed. This was the original body's elder brother, Jiang Chao.

　　The original person is eighteen years old this year, and there is only an older brother and an elderly grandmother in the family.

　　When Jiang's father was hunting in the mountains when they were young, he was bitten by a wolf. Not long after coming down the mountain, he died of excessive blood loss.

　　Jiang's mother was in poor health, and during the three years of famine she starved herself to save food for her family.

　　Then, in the first year of the famine, she became physically exhausted and died.

　　Jiang Chao is seven years older than Jiang Yingying. After his parents passed away, only his elderly grandmother and young sister were left at home.

　　When he was fifteen years old, a troop came to the county town to recruit soldiers, and Jiang Chao begged someone to accept him.

　　It was also because he had good physical fitness and was courageous that the old squad leader in charge of recruiting soldiers at the time felt sorry for him and accepted him despite the pressure.

　　Afterwards, Jiang Chao successfully became an outstanding soldier.

　　He missed his grandmother and sister in his hometown, so when the allowance came, he kept only a little for himself and sent the rest back home.

　　It was also because of Jiang Chao's subsidy that Jiang Yingying was able to become a high school student in this era.

　　Later, Jiang Chao got married and returned to his hometown several times with his wife Xu Zhishu.

　　After Jiang Chao got married, Grandma Jiang no longer accepted his money. No matter how many times he sent money home, it would always be returned.

　　Jiang Yingying also felt that Jiang Chao already had his own family and could not be dragged down by them anymore.

　　So she studied while working part-time. She helped Grandma Jiang with farm chores. When she had free time, she would go up the mountain to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables to exchange for some money to supplement the family income.

　　At the beginning of this year, Jiang Chao made another military achievement and was promoted to deputy regiment commander.

　　He discussed with Xu Zhishu and wanted to bring his grandmother and sister from his hometown to the military region.

　　Xu Zhishu also agreed. She and Jiang Chao went back several times and exchanged letters with her sister-in-law on a daily basis.

　　Xu Zhishu has only brothers in her family. Not long after she met Jiang Yingying, she fell in love with this sensible sister.

　　But he was too sensible, which made her feel distressed.

　　So, Jiang Chao suggested bringing them over, and Xu Zhishu agreed without hesitation, without any dissatisfaction.

　　The couple talked to their little boy Jiang Yang, who was also looking forward to the arrival of his great-grandmother and aunt.

　　However, although they had good thoughts on this, Grandma Jiang and Jiang Yingying did not agree. They were afraid that it would cause them too much trouble and kept refusing to agree.

　　After graduating from high school this year, Jiang Yingying returned to the brigade to live with her grandmother and take care of the elderly.

　　Life was pretty good, but accidents happen. It rained for a long time a while ago and Grandma Jiang accidentally fell when she got up at night.

　　Old people are most afraid of minor illnesses and falls. After this fall, Grandma Jiang lay in bed and could never get up again.

　　Jiang Yingying took good care of her for more than a month, but the old woman still passed away one night.

　　After Grandma Jiang passed away, the uncles and aunts in the brigade helped Jiang Yingying take care of the funeral arrangements.

　　Jiang Yingying sent a telegram to Jiang Chao about this matter, hoping that they could rush back to burn incense for the old man.
