Jiang Yan rode her bike to Qinghe Brigade and stood in front of the small shack where the Jiang family lived for a long time. She felt very complicated and didn't know how to face the Jiang family.

Originally she was an impostor who occupied the body of the original owner. Now, even the original owner is a fake, and it is impossible to explain.

The Jiang family was kept in the dark and knew nothing about her life experience, but the original owner's memory was still there, her perception was still there, and the love the Jiang family had given was real.

It was not something she could control, nor was it the original owner's fault. If anyone was to be blamed, it should be that woman Yang Hongying. She was vicious and selfish, and she had messed up the lives of the two Jiang families.

Jiang Yan took off his gloves, reached into the pocket of his cotton-padded jacket, took out two small stones, and threw them towards the shack.

The stones hit the window, waking up the people in the house.

Jiang Ci's first reaction was to quickly get up, put on his cotton jacket, light a candle and go outside to see if it was his daughter who came.

"Yanyan?"

"dad."

"Hey kid, it's snowing, why are you here? Come in, come inside."

Jiang Yan pushed the bicycle into the house and parked it in the outer corridor.

Weng Shuxu and Jiang Baitao also got up. The two old men put on their cotton-padded jackets and looked out. "Is it Yanyan?"

"Grandpa, grandma, I'm coming."

"Hey, why are you running here on such a snowy day!"

The old couple quickly rolled up the bedding and let Jiang Yan get on the kang.

Their small shack only had one and a half rooms inside and outside, and they borrowed half of the wall from the cowshed.

The food tastes bad in the summer and is cold in the winter, so the only way to keep warm is to burn a fire.

In Melbourne, people will die if they don’t have a kang in winter, so even if they live in a cowshed, there will always be a kang for them to live on.

Jiang Yan took off her shoes and got on the kang. Jiang Ci picked up her shoes and put them next to the stove to dry, for fear that the shoes would be damp and his daughter's feet would get cold.

Jiang Yan looked at this scene and felt a little sad.

Jiang Ci is just a scholar, and academics tend to be more or less nitpicky. If he knew what Yang Hongying had done, would he collapse?

It was very cold in the room. Even though the window gaps were covered with newspapers, the cold wind still blew into the room.

Weng Shuxu made thick curtains. The curtains were made by patching together several pieces of cloth. Although they were not beautiful, they could block the wind.

Jiang Yan touched the thick frost on the window and said with concern: "Grandpa, grandma, it's too cold in this room." It's not the coldest yet. If it gets colder, she is really afraid that the two old people will not be able to hold on.

"Oh, it's okay."

Jiang Baitao patted the mattress and quilt on the kang and said, "We have the thick quilt you sent us. We put the old quilt we used to use, which was not very warm, on top of it. It is also quite windproof and warm inside."

"Your father and grandfather prepared a lot of firewood. We can burn more firewood tonight and get through it." Weng Shuxu showed Jiang Yan the thick clothes she was wearing. "We will use all the things you sent us. Don't worry."

Jiang Ci boiled some hot water, put a spoonful of sugar in it, and asked Jiang Yan to drink it.

"My dear, it's snowing heavily and the roads are hard to walk on. Why are you here again?"

"I'm worried about you guys, aren't I? By the way, Dad, is this house solid? I'm afraid if it snows too hard, the roof will collapse again."

"It's no big deal. Don't be fooled by the shabby house. The roof was purposely built with a slanted roof. It can't hold snow. If it snows heavily, just poke it with a stick and it will all fall down. It won't collapse, don't worry."

Jiang Yan drank a sip of water and felt warm. "Dad, please unload all the things in my car. I brought a lot of things for you this time, including things for the Su family."

"Hey!"

Jiang Ci quickly got up, went to the outer room to unload the several large packages tied to the bicycle, and brought them into the house.

"What did you buy? Why is it so heavy?"

"I bought some fine grains for you, 20 kilograms of rice and flour each." Jiang Yan put two bags of grain on the kang and opened them to show them.

Each grain of rice is crystal clear and plump, and you can smell the rice fragrance as soon as you open the bag.

Weng Shuxu picked up a handful of rice and said curiously, "This rice is really good."

"New Year's Day is coming soon, this white flour is perfect for making dumplings."

Jiang Yan took out a few pounds of bacon, two chickens, and eggs bought from the supply and marketing cooperative from the bag.

"Don't be reluctant to eat, your health is what's important."

Jiang Ci was also happy. Although he felt sorry for his daughter's hard work, he was actually looking forward to Jiang Yan's coming.

With the arrival of their daughter, the old couple’s food supply is guaranteed. Mom and Dad can eat something nutritious, resist the cold, and keep their bodies in good shape, which is better than anything else.

"Yanyan, thank you for your hard work."

Jiang Ci's eyes were red. The old couple had been drinking the milk powder and malted milk that Jiang Yan had sent them during this period, and their bodies had become much stronger. In the past, there was no oil in the dishes, but now, they eat meat every now and then, and if they don't eat fine grains every day, they can still eat hand-rolled noodles every two or three days, at least they don't have to go hungry at night.

"Dad, what are you talking about? Aren't we a family?"

"Yanyan, what's wrong with you? You must not make yourself suffer and save the food in your mouth for us."

As Jiang Yan was taking out something, she said, "No, grandma, look at me. Am I a little fatter? I eat well! And I built a house in the village and live by myself. It's convenient to eat whatever I want."

"You built a house? Did the people at the educated youth camp bully you?"

"No." She put the newly bought malted milk and milk powder on the kang and whispered, "I just think it's convenient for me to live here. Otherwise, if they eat potatoes, I have to eat potatoes too, and I can't even eat meat. So I just built a small house for myself. But don't worry about the money. I have money, and I have seen my uncle and aunt."

"What? You saw the boss?" Jiang Baitao's eyes widened. "Yanyan, what's going on? Talk to grandpa."

Jiang Yan went to make a report and told them what he had discovered about Xiao Rizi. The three of them were horrified when they learned that Jiang Yan not only discovered Xiao Rizi, but also went to capture Xiao Rizi personally. Jiang Ci couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

"How can you be so brave? What if something happens?"

"Boss, you are being ridiculous. How can you be allowed to do something like this?"

"Grandma, don't blame uncle. I just wanted to do more work, get rewarded, and let you and grandpa leave this damn place as soon as possible."

Jiang Yan hugged Weng Shuxu's arm and acted coquettishly, "Besides, my elder brother and second brother both died for the country, which shows that there is no coward in our Jiang family. I can do it too."

"Silly girl." Weng Shuxu's tears fell, "If anything happens to you, it will cost grandma her life."
