The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 210: A New Transfer Order

After another half month of recuperation, Wang Miaomiao felt that the injury on her head had mostly healed.

That night, when Jiang Yan came over, Wang Miaomiao shared her plan, "Brother Jiang, I’m pretty much healed. I want to be discharged from the hospital..."

She hadn’t even finished her sentence when Jiang Yan bluntly refused, "No way, you’re not healed. Your injury was to the head. And your shoulder, they say ’it takes a hundred days to heal bones and muscles,’ you’ve only rested for a few days."

"It’s been more than half a month..." Wang Miaomiao glanced at him weakly, seeing his stern face showing his rare disapproval, she sighed and said, "Sigh... Brother Jiang, it’s not that I don’t want to rest, but I don’t necessarily have to rest here. With the current shortage of hospital beds, my injury is almost healed, why add to the chaos here? Besides, it’s not a good situation for Granny Xie and her granddaughter to stay here taking care of me... Why don’t you talk to Granny Xie and let her take the girl to the relocation center..."

Jiang Yan pursed his lips, thinking, Granny Xie staying here to care for Miao Miao really wasn’t appropriate.

The Xie family’s grandmother and granddaughter were indeed grateful and stubborn. Wang Miaomiao had already mentioned several times that she didn’t need their care, but they believed that it was unacceptable for Wang Miaomiao to be hospitalized without someone to look after her, and they wouldn’t listen despite numerous explanations.

The temporary hospital facilities were very poor, with no place for companions to sleep, and the two of them had been nestling in a corner for so many days. Luckily it was summer, but even in summer, the old and young shouldn’t be mistreating their bodies like this.

Jiang Yan thought for a moment and said, "Let’s wait a couple more days. Things here have mostly been taken care of, and there should be a transfer order coming through in the next couple of days."

Wang Miaomiao’s eyes lit up, "Where to?"

Jiang Yan looked at her excited little face and was quite happy, "The transfer order hasn’t come in officially yet, so I can’t say."

Alright then... soldiers are always so precise.

"As for Granny Xie, I’ll go and talk to her." After he spoke, he got up to find Granny Xie. Who knows what he said, but anyway, the next day someone came to take the grandmother and granddaughter away.

As they were leaving, the girl hugged Wang Miaomiao’s waist, crying reluctantly. The girl didn’t want to leave Wang Miaomiao, and Wang Miaomiao actually didn’t want to leave the girl either. These days lying in bed had been incredibly dull; it was the girl who kept her company and talked with her so she wouldn’t die of boredom.

After the Xie family grandmother and granddaughter left, Wang Miaomiao felt even more bored. She couldn’t just lie in bed anymore, and without the grandmother and granddaughter watching over her, she couldn’t resist the restless urge inside her and eventually got up, sneaking out of the hospital to get some fresh air, taking a big walk before returning. She was secretly glad she wasn’t injured in the leg.

So she waited four more days.

"Miao Miao, pack your things, we’re leaving." Jiang Yan came to her excitedly, starting to pack her belongings without giving her a chance to protest.

"No need, no need, I... I’ll do it..." Wang Miaomiao closed her eyes in vexation, inwardly groaning, that was her underwear...

Jiang Yan, without changing his expression, put it in the bag. Since he had been exposed to the sun and wind these days, his face had become much darker, so Wang Miaomiao didn’t notice that actually, his earlobes were indeed red for a moment.

"Thank you, Mr. Liu, for coming to pick me up." Wang Miaomiao followed behind Jiang Yan, carefully stepping, as they made their way to the parking area.

Xiao Liu got out of the car to open the door for them, "No need to be so polite, Mr. Wang. It’s my duty."

Sitting in the car, Wang Miaomiao couldn’t hold back from asking again, "Where are we going?"

Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Home."

"Huh? Where?" Wang Miaomiao asked in confusion.

"Your injury needs another two months’ rest. Where else can you go if not home? Can you stay here? Go live with the Jiang Family, I wouldn’t feel at ease anywhere else..." Jiang Yan squeezed her hand, "My posting has come through, District Chief of C District in Beijing."

"Really? Congratulations..." Wang Miaomiao’s eyes gleamed, goodness... starting off at such a high position? However, thinking he’s already a regiment commander in the military at a young age, his future is boundless...

"However, going to the Jiang Family, I still feel it’s not suitable, after all... we’re not married yet." Although Wang Miaomiao was happy for his successful career transition, she hadn’t lost her mind with joy, "I’ll just go back to the barracks dormitory."

After thinking for a long time, Wang Miaomiao realized she’s still like a drifting duckweed in Beijing, without real estate, which meant no sense of belonging. She wondered whether she should buy a house.

Thinking this way, she couldn’t help but voice it out, "Brother Jiang, I want to buy a house in Beijing, is that okay?"

"Hmm? Why do you have such an idea?" Jiang Yan asked unexpectedly, casually, seeming not to need her answer, then said, "Of course, it’s possible to buy a house. Policies have recently relaxed a bit, I’ll inquire about it and let you know."

At this point, Wang Miaomiao suddenly remembered it was already the end of August. At the beginning of September, our supreme leader will pass away, and then the country will open up, ushering in a new era of national development.

These two months probably would still be quite chaotic, Wang Miaomiao couldn’t help but instruct, "They say the darkness before dawn is the scariest, you need to be careful these days. As for the house, there’s no rush, take your time looking, best if it’s a school district house, or a courtyard... sigh... I don’t have much total assets in my hands now, not sure what kind I can buy."

Jiang Yan didn’t comment further on this, but regarding her resolute refusal to go to the Jiang house, he felt a bit helpless.

In the end, Wang Miaomiao still returned to her original barracks.

In the dormitory, Jiang Yan busied himself cleaning while saying, "You did a good deed saving people this time, I’ve reported it already. There should be a commendation soon."

Wang Miaomiao leaned against the bedhead, watching him roll up his sleeves, busily working, she smiled and said, "Is there really such a good thing? I didn’t contribute much, it’s a bit embarrassing." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Jiang Yan looked up and gave her a stern look, seeming very disapproving of her words, "You got injured, who gets commended if you don’t? Hmph..."

Wang Miaomiao awkwardly touched the tip of her nose, this man still hasn’t gotten over her injury...

She quickly changed the subject, "When will you take up your post in C District?"

"Once the paperwork is sorted, probably a few more days." Jiang Yan continued, "Leaving you alone at the barracks, I’m not at ease, I thought it over, you should come with me."

Wang Miaomiao shook her head, "I don’t want to, I don’t feel like moving. Didn’t you say the policies have loosened now? I reckon it won’t be long until the college entrance exam resumes. Or, you could help me with a demobilization too?"

She thought about the college entrance exam next year and didn’t want to be troubled further.

Jiang Yan glared at her, "You’re just lazy. Alright, I know what to do."

Wang Miaomiao was surprised, so he already saw through her nature?

Jiang Yan’s efficiency was indeed high, within two days, he brought back a first-class merit badge and a transfer order.

Wang Miaomiao looked at it, C District Sunshine Middle School teacher?

"Didn’t you say you wanted to be a teacher in the future? This will help you start getting used to it."

No matter what, he still had to keep her in his sight to feel assured.
