Chapter 3 Family 2

　　But it was just so unfortunate that Grandma Jiang passed away and Jiang Chao had just returned from a mission and was hospitalized with serious injuries.

　　After Jiang Yingying dealt with Grandma Jiang's funeral, she looked at the empty house. At the suggestion of her uncles, she thought about it and decided to go to the army to see the injured Jiang Chao first.

　　Jiang Yingying came to the army, so of course she sent a telegram to tell Jiang Chao and the others.

　　Jiang Chao was bedridden recovering from his injuries. Xu Zhishu was a teacher at a military primary school. She had to take care of the patient, the children at home, and go back to school to teach.

　　She was unable to spare the time to pick up Jiang Yingying at the station, but the couple asked their soldiers to go to the station to pick her up.

　　In the end, the person was not picked up, so I called back home to ask, and the people in the brigade said that Jiang Yingying had got on the bus and should have arrived yesterday at noon.

　　But they waited at the station for most of the day and went to look for Jiang Yingying near the station, but they couldn't find her.

　　Xu Zhishu didn't even dare to guess whether something happened to Jiang Yingying on the road. After Jiang Chao learned about it, he became so anxious that his eyes turned red, and he kept hitting his injured leg with his hands.

　　Fortunately, fortunately, they met Jiang Yingying today.

　　Xu Zhishu thought, otherwise, she was really afraid to go on. She was afraid that she would not be able to persuade Jiang Chao, a stubborn person. Her heart was also in great pain and she could not bear it any longer.

　　Jiang Chao's injuries this time were very serious and he needed to rest, so he stayed in a single room.

　　After entering the ward, Xu Zhishu closed the door and stood behind it, wiping his tears silently.

　　The moment Jiang Chao saw Jiang Yingying, his eyes quickly turned red for a grown man who hadn't cried even when he was injured and bleeding.

　　"Yingying, it's my fault." He blamed himself, "Not only did I fail to go back to see grandma for the last time, I also failed to pick you up. It's my fault..."

　　His gaze fell on Jiang Yingying's neck, his eyes flashed fiercely, but he was afraid of scaring her, so he tried hard to suppress his emotions.

　　Jiang Chao spoke again, his voice a little hoarse.

　　"Yingying, what's the matter with the wound on your neck? Did someone bully you?"

　　"Also, where did you go after you arrived at the station yesterday? Did anything happen to you? Did you eat?"

　　Faced with Jiang Chao's series of concerns, Jiang Yingying couldn't help but redden her eyes at this moment. At this moment, she seemed to have truly merged with the Jiang Yingying of this era.

　　She hoped that the good girl in her original body could live a good life with her family over there, just as she was here.

　　Seeing Jiang Yingying looking at him with red eyes without saying anything, Jiang Chao suddenly felt a little helpless, and he clenched and unclenched his hands.

　　Xu Zhishu stepped forward, his eyes fell on the scar on Jiang Yingying's neck, he felt pity, self-blame and regret.

　　She said, "You asked so many questions in one breath, which one should Yingying answer you?"

　　After criticizing Jiang Chao, when Xu Zhishu turned to Jiang Yingying, his tone unconsciously softened a lot.

　　"Yingying, don't be afraid. If you have any problem, tell your sister-in-law..." She said, "Your brother and I will take care of it for you."

　　Thinking of something, Xu Zhishu pursed his lips.

　　"If you're embarrassed, then tell your sister-in-law secretly. Don't be afraid, your sister-in-law will protect you."

　　While Xu Zhishu was speaking, Jiang Chao also thought of something. His eyes became even redder and veins on his hands bulged.

　　Jiang Yang tilted his head and looked at the terrible scar on Jiang Yingying's neck, with heartache flashing in his eyes.

　　His little voice rang out, "Aunt, does it hurt?"

　　Jiang Yang rummaged in his trouser pocket and pulled out two fruit candies.

　　"Auntie, here's the candy for you. Eat it and your mouth will feel sweet, and the wound will not hurt."

　　Looking at them and feeling their concern, Jiang Yingying opened her lips and said with difficulty: "No, it doesn't hurt..."

　　After just saying these two words, Jiang Yingying felt her throat hurt so much that she couldn't speak anymore.

　　"Yingying! Your voice..."

　　Seeing the concern in their eyes, Jiang Yingying quickly waved her hand, thought for a moment, took out a pen and paper from her pocket, and wrote down the three words "I'm fine".

　　Looking at the words she wrote, Jiang Chao pursed his lips tightly, and Xu Zhishu turned his head away to prevent them from seeing her tears.

　　The obvious and horrible scar on her neck, and her hoarse and unpleasant voice...

　　Jiang Chao and Xu Zhishu both knew that "it's okay" was just an excuse for Jiang Yingying to comfort them.

　　Jiang Yingying wrote down what happened to her yesterday on a piece of paper. After learning what happened, Jiang Chao clenched his fists tightly.

　　Xu Zhishu was even more terrified, "These damn human traffickers!"

　　It was also at this time that they realized that Jiang Yingying was the person He Yan rescued yesterday.

　　The young nurse who came to inspect yesterday mentioned it, but at that time Xu Zhishu and the others were worried that something might have happened to Jiang Yingying, so they just listened and let it go.

　　Now knowing that they were so close yesterday, but they didn't know, and left her alone in the hospital for so long...

　　Jiang Chao and Xu Zhishu's eyes were filled with self-blame. Jiang Yingying couldn't speak very well now, and her throat hurt when she moved, so she communicated with them by writing on paper.

　　But Jiang Yang is only six years old this year. He stared with wide eyes for a long time but didn't understand a few words. He then looked at his parents with red eyes.

　　Jiang Yang finally set his eyes on Jiang Yingying and said, "Aunt, the doctors in the hospital are very good. Don't be afraid. They will heal the injury on your neck."

　　"Dad is injured too. We are all in the hospital. We will accompany you!"

　　Jiang Yang said: "Apply the medicine, the pain will go away, and the wound will heal."

　　Looking at Jiang Yang, Jiang Yingying smiled.

　　"Um."

　　After the family met, Jiang Chao and his family naturally couldn't let Jiang Yingying stay in the hospital alone.

　　So, another bed was added to Jiang Chao's single room and Jiang Yingying moved in.

　　And the young nurses in the hospital soon found out that the little beauty sent by Captain He was actually the younger sister of Deputy Captain Jiang of the Second Regiment!

　　After He Yan finished the work at hand, he thought of the little girl he rescued last night. He was stunned for a moment, walked out of the army and walked towards the hospital.

　　When he reached the door of the ward, He Yan pursed his lips and raised his hand to knock on the door.

　　There was no response from inside. He Yan frowned slightly and was about to put his hand on the door again.

　　Zhang Yuan, who was passing by, saw him and said, "Hey, Captain He..."

　　It's not her fault. Ever since He Yan rejected a group of female comrades with a tough and ruthless attitude, and his expression became increasingly stern, men, women, young and old in the entire military region were all afraid of him.

　　Zhang Yuan pinched his fingertips to give himself courage.

　　"Captain He," she looked away, not daring to meet He Yan's eyes. "Are you looking for Comrade Jiang?"

　　Zhang Yuan lowered his head, and because of nervousness, he spoke much faster than usual.

　　"Oh, Comrade Jiang is the female comrade you rescued. She has been transferred to another ward..."
