Siheyuan: I found a wife right after I crossed over

It seemed that someone had fainted while working on the construction site. A man with a red armband on his arm, who seemed to be a manager, was shouting at the top of his voice: "Go call Doctor Li, he said someone fainted again!"

The others were still doing their own things, and they seemed to have gotten used to it. After all, they were not able to eat enough and had to do such heavy work, so fainting was a common occurrence.

But we have to do what we have to do. Although we can't get enough food here, at least there is food to eat. If we go back, we won't even have anything to eat.

After shouting for a long time, no doctor came. Someone replied, "Stop shouting. Doctor Li's wife is giving birth and she is not at the construction site today."

"What should we do? If the person can't wake up, he might die?" The red armband frowned and bent down to pinch the unconscious migrant worker's philtrum. But after pinching a few times, the person just lay there with his eyes closed, motionless, with no sign of waking up.

"Splash some water. Last time, Dr. Li woke someone up by splashing some cold water." Someone next to him said.

"Bring some water and try it." The red armband said. Soon the water was brought. He took the scoop and was about to pour it on, but someone grabbed his wrist and said, "Don't pour it, it will kill people!"

The man with the red armband was stunned, and when he turned around, he saw a young man he didn't recognize, with an old man and a young woman standing behind him.

"Who are you? What do you do?" the man with the red armband asked after a moment of surprise.

Yang Chong directly took out his military hospital ID from his pocket and handed it to him. The red armband flipped through it and immediately stood in awe: "Are you a military doctor from the Fourth Nine City?"

Yang Chong nodded, squatted down, pried open the migrant worker's eyelids and took a look, then took out a small pill from his pocket, pried open the migrant worker's lips and stuffed it in, then held out his hand: "Water."

The red armband quickly brought the water scoop over. Yang Chong pinched his mouth with one hand and drank some water with the other hand holding the scoop.

After a while, the unconscious migrant worker slowly opened his eyes.

At this time, the red armband let out a long sigh: "Zhao Laosan, you finally woke up. If you hadn't woken up, I would have asked someone to carry you out. Fortunately, this military doctor comrade."

Zhao Laosan looked at Yang Chong gratefully, but he didn't even have the strength to stand up, so the man with the red armband quickly had someone carry him aside to rest.

"Comrade Military Doctor, thank you so much." The red armband said gratefully, "I wonder what the military doctor wants?"

Yang Chong didn't beat around the bush: "You are the person in charge here, right? I came here to visit my relatives, but after I got here I found out that my relative came here to repair the reservoir, so I came to look for him."

"Looking for someone? No problem. Tell me his name and see if he's here." The man with the red armband said readily.

"My brother's name is Yu Guang, and my sister-in-law's name is Li Yun." Yu Xiu said quickly.

The red armband immediately said, "It's Yu Guang and his wife. I know. Wait, I'll send someone to call them right away." Then he shouted, "Gangzi, go call Yu Guang and his wife and tell them someone is looking for them."

Then he said to Yang Chong, "Comrade Military Doctor, why don't you go sit in the headquarters over there? Someone will be here soon."

Yang Chong shook his head: "Don't bother, we'll just wait here." He took out a packet of pills from his pocket and said: "People often faint here, right? Most of them faint because they are hungry and tired. Next time, it's best not to use the method of pouring cold water on them, as it can easily cause trouble. Take these pills and use them."

The red armband happily took it and said, "Thank you so much, Comrade Military Doctor. I won't hide it from you. What you said is absolutely right. People often faint here. We used this folk remedy before. Many people were saved, but many others were not. If we had your medicine, things would be much better in the future."

After a while, a man and a woman, both about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, came over from a distance.

As he walked, he looked over here in confusion.

As soon as Yu Xiu saw them, he shouted, "Brother, sister-in-law!" and ran over quickly.

The people who came over were Yu Xiu's brother and sister-in-law, Yu Guang and Li Yun.

They were stunned for a moment, looking at Yu Xiu who ran over in surprise, and hesitantly called out: "Xiu'er? Is it really you?!"

Yu Xiu had already run to them. Li Yun said in surprise, "It's Xiu'er, it's really our Xiu'er!" Then she hugged Yu Xiu, tears falling, "Xiu'er, it's really you. When did you come back? Your brother and I thought we would never see you again."

Yu Guang was standing aside with tears in his eyes. Ever since Yu Xiu secretly left home, the couple had been blaming themselves, thinking that it was their responsibility as a brother and sister-in-law for not taking good care of their sister. Especially after hearing that the journey from Henan to Sijiucheng was over a thousand miles and there were people starving to death everywhere on the road, they blamed themselves so much that they couldn't sleep, thinking that they would never see their sister again in this life.

Now, seeing their sister, who had been away from home for almost a year, suddenly appear in front of them, the couple were so excited that they couldn't express it in words.

Li Yun hugged Yu Xiu and cried for a while, then let go and looked her up and down. She originally thought that she must be starving to the point of being skin and bones, but after a closer look, she found that not only was she not thinner, but she was actually a lot fatter than before.

Moreover, her skin has become fair and tender, and her face is rosy, and it is obvious that she is living a good life.

"Xiu'er, where have you been for almost a year? How have you been? Have you seen our uncle?" Li Yun asked anxiously.

Yu Guang also looked concerned.

Yu Xiu said, "Brother, sister-in-law, after I left home last year, I went to Sijiucheng. I was on the road for almost a month, but when I got there, I found that my uncle and his family were no longer there."

"Didn't you find your uncle? How have you been spending the past six months? You must have suffered a lot," Li Yun asked nervously.

Yu Xiu smiled, glanced at Yang Chong beside her, and then said: "At the beginning, I suffered a lot, begging for food, sleeping on the street, and then... later I was lucky to meet Brother Chongzi."

Yu Guang and Li Yun were stunned. Only then did they notice that in addition to their uncle, there was also a strange young man next to them.

Yang Chong came over and called out with a smile, "Brother, sister-in-law."

The two looked at each other, still confused. Yu Xiu let go of Li Yun's hand and stood next to Yang Chong: "Brother, sister-in-law, this is Yang Chong, my man, and your brother-in-law."

Brother-in-law?

The two of them were stunned for a moment. Li Yun quickly pulled Yu Xiu to her side and asked in a low voice, "Xiu'er, when did you get married? How come we didn't know?"

Yu Xiu blushed, and Yang Chong took the initiative to say, "Brother, sister-in-law, we got married before the New Year. Because we live far away and time is tight, I didn't have time to tell you, and I didn't listen to your opinions. Please don't be offended."

Yu Xiu and Li Yun both looked at Yu Guang, who suddenly waved his hand and said, "Why are you surprised? You take such good care of Xiu'er. I can't thank you enough."
