The fake heiress from the 1970s was kicked out at the beginning, but became a village girl and was p

Heilongjiang Province Tiger Military Base.

Ling Wenchen returned to his unit, thinking about the Lin family's affairs. He felt that Lin Shiping probably didn't know yet, otherwise he wouldn't have asked him to give the gift to Lin Yuyan.

Thinking of her, he instantly recalled the tender skin he had touched that night, and the girl's pleading voice, even her anger sounded like a coquettish plea, which made him even more excited.

Ling Wenchen coughed, trying his best to suppress his excitement.

"Wenchen, how's it going? Did you give my sister the gift? How's Yuyan? Is she doing alright?"

Lin Shiping, who saw him from afar, ran over and patted him on the shoulder with a big smile.

Ling Wenchen pulled the person away, waved away the others who wanted to join in the fun, and went to a secluded place.

Lin Shiping, who had been smiling and asking about the situation, immediately stopped smiling when he saw him frowning, and became anxious.

"Wenchen, tell me, is it Yuyan—something happened to her?"

Lin Shiping was extremely worried whenever he thought about his soft and gentle younger sister getting into trouble, being hurt, and crying her eyes out.

Yu Yan is such a good person, yet so timid. What would happen if he weren't there to protect her?

Lin Shiping simply couldn't imagine the scene; just thinking about it filled him with dread.

"No, I need to ask for leave and go home to see my family—"

Ling Wenchen grabbed him, "Shiping, Yuyan isn't your sister. Your biological sister is named Lin Yue, do you know that?"

Lin Shiping was confused. "Wenchen, what are you talking about? What? Yuyan isn't my sister? And who is Lin Yue? What are you talking about? No, that's not what we're talking about now, Yuyan—"

Ling Wenchen threw a punch, and Lin Shiping's mouth immediately bled.

His sharp gaze fell on Lin Shiping. "Calm down! What's the use of acting impulsively now? Can Comrade Yuyan come back immediately? Will she be driven away again if she does?"

Lin Shiping: "..."

After a moment, Lin Shiping looked dejected, all his strength gone, and covered his sore and aching eyes, remaining silent for a long time.

Seeing him like this, Ling Wenchen felt bad too.

He walked over, patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, and said, "Shiping, I'm already investigating Comrade Yuyan's whereabouts. But, I think you should find out more about your family's situation."

It's not appropriate for an outsider like him to get involved in this matter.

but--

There were some things he still wanted Lin Shiping to know.

"Shiping, you, my biological sister who just returned, aren't very kind-hearted—"

The way he said it made it sound like he was talking badly about someone else, which was awkward and strange.

If it weren't for the person he remembered, Ling Wenchen would never have done something so harmful to others and himself.

After years of brotherhood, Lin Shiping immediately understood his words.

He scoffed, sat down on the ground, and looked into the distance with a sarcastic gaze.

"Actually—I witnessed my mother's inexplicable disgust for my sister when she was only a few months old, to the point that she even smothered her to death."

At that time, his family had just been sent down to the farm, and his younger sister was less than a month old.

Lin's mother looked numb, completely ignoring her younger sister who was crying so hard she was about to faint.

In the end, Lin Shiping couldn't bear to see her cry so much, so he carefully fed her some soup, which finally stopped her crying.

He thought that was the end.

Once, when he had a stomachache, he quietly retreated back to the cowshed. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Lin's mother with a ferocious face, her eyes fixed on the ground below, her hands covering the baby with coarse cloth.

The baby kicked and struggled incessantly, but the person holding her remained unmoved.

"Mom! What are you doing??"

Lin Shiping quickly pushed his mother away, grabbed his sister, and ran outside, not daring to make a sound.

But he dared not leave his younger sister at home again, lest Lin's mother lose her mind and really kill his sister next time.

"I thought she just disliked Yu Yan, but I never expected—"

Unexpectedly, when Lin's mother learned that Yu Yan was not her biological daughter, she did not feel any inexplicable disgust, but rather indifference.

Lin Shiping thought about it and found it all laughable.

During such a chaotic period, they caused trouble for other people's children, yet instead of taking good care of them, they harbored a hatred that wished they could kill them.

I really don't know where Lin's mother gets the audacity to think that what she's doing is perfectly justified?

Ling Wenchen pursed his lips. "What do you want to do?"

"What to do isn't up to me. Yu Yan, if she's alright, that's fine, but if something happens to her, I really—"

Lin Shiping wiped his face, his eyes resolute. "Wenchen, I'm going out for a bit." With that, he ran off.

...

Jiang Yuyan went to pick up her mother with a large bag of herbs she had bought.

Today they were going to pick up Jiang Muxuan from the hospital, knowing that he still couldn't stay in the hospital and was spending the family's meager savings.

Jiang Yuyan hired the smelly oxcart from the gang for half a day for five cents, and had Uncle Niu pull it back in one trip.

Looking at the courtyard, Jiang Muxuan asked in confusion, "This house isn't—"

Jiang's mother happily beckoned to her third son to help him inside.

"Xuan'er, this room is for you. Your father, following Yu Yan's wishes, divided the two rooms into four small single rooms, one for each of you."

Jiang Muxuan lay drowsily on the warm kang (heated brick bed), taking a deep breath. It was much warmer and more comfortable than the rooms he usually stayed in.

Jiang Muxuan had a lot to say, but perhaps because he was too comfortable or because he was back in familiar surroundings, he fell into a deep sleep just a few minutes after getting into bed.

Jiang Yuyan glanced at the person sleeping on the kang (a heated brick bed), quietly closed the door, and left.

"Mother, my eldest brother is asleep and sleeping soundly, so you don't need to worry."

"Phew, that's great, thank God! This child has suffered so much, keeping everything bottled up inside. I was so afraid he would bottle it up."

Jiang Yuyan handed her a packet of Chinese medicine. "Mother, decoct this medicine and give it to my eldest brother. It will be good for his leg injury."

That way he can have a good night's sleep without pain.

"Okay, I'll brew it now." Jiang's mother took the medicine packet and was about to start when she suddenly remembered something and quickly called out to her daughter.

"Daughter, I forgot to tell you, when you were discharged from the hospital, the police came looking for you, saying they wanted you to come over and asked what it was about, but they left without saying anything."

Jiang Yuyan pondered. People from the police station? She didn't know anyone at the police station.

Except for that time I went to see Jiang Muyi!

Jiang's mother asked worriedly, "Has something happened? Do you want me to come with you?"

Seeing the fear in her mother's eyes, Jiang Yuyan smiled and comforted her.

"No, didn't I go to see my second brother last time? I told the police inside that if anything happens, they can come to the hospital to find me. It might be about this, Mother, don't worry."

Jiang's mother breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright."

She's really scared now; the slightest sound makes her hair stand on end, and she's terrified.

Jiang Yuyan glanced at the sky. It was still early. She would hurry to town and, if things went well, be back in the afternoon.

The police station was extremely noisy.

Jiang Yuyan glanced around and called out to a policeman she had seen before, "Hello!"

"Comrade Jiang Yuyan? You've finally arrived. Quickly, Comrade Jiang Muyi has been stabbed. I think you saw him last time; did he say anything to you?"
