Chapter 484: Recovering memory

~8 min read 1,591 words

Three days later, Jiang Ye was discharged.

Shen Man's vacation had also reached its end, so she had her grandfather take A-Ye and the children home while she returned to the department to work.

After being discharged, it was Jiang Ye's first time returning to his own home.

Although the small courtyard was small, it had everything one needed.

Not only was there a well, but there was also an independent restroom.

The courtyard was planted with flowers and plants, and butterflies danced, making one feel refreshed and happy just looking at it.

The children pulled their father along, chattering and introducing their new toy, a little sea turtle.

Then there was the small pond their great-grandparent had built for them, which had a few fish in it. Seeing the fish in the pond, Jiang Ye roughly knew where the fish soup he had been drinking recently came from.

After accompanying the children for a while, he felt a bit tired, and his son took the initiative to send him back to his room to rest.

That was great; it saved him from not knowing where his room was.

Walking into the main room, he saw the wall full of photos and stopped in his tracks.

In the photos, there was a greener version of himself, him holding a swaddled infant and smiling brightly, photos of him and his wife together, family portraits, and many, many photos that were not in his memory but were very vivid.

"Daddy, the photos we took in Dongbei this time have been sent to the photo studio to be developed. When Godfather comes over, he will bring the photos, and then we will have to make frames and hang them on the wall..."

Xiao Mantou didn't know his father had amnesia. Seeing his father staring at the photos on the wall, he thought his father was looking at photos of him wearing split-crotch pants and exposing his little bird, so he hurriedly changed the subject.

When his mother came home, he would discuss with her about taking down the photos where he was exposing his little bird; he was grown up now and would be shy.

"Hmm, Daddy is going back to the room to rest first. You and your sister go play in the courtyard."

Jiang Ye withdrew his gaze, said this to his son, and reached out to turn the doorknob of the master bedroom.

The layout of the master bedroom was very simple, and a faint scent of magnolia flowers drifted into his nose, bringing a familiar palpitation.

Yes, this was the scent.

The fragrance on his wife's body was just like this.

After walking into the room, he gently closed the door.

His fingertips first brushed over the desk under the window, on which were placed a few medical books with worn edges.

This matched his wife's profession: military doctor.

There was a small mirror and a wooden comb.

A scene suddenly flashed in his mind: his wife would sit here in the morning to comb her hair, braid it, read a book quietly for a while, and then look back and smile after hearing some sound...

He moved to the wardrobe, gently pushing it open to reveal the scene inside.

His clothes were white and green, hung neatly and meticulously.

His wife's clothes were of various colors, arranged neatly according to their shades.

The two people's clothes were hung intimately in the wardrobe, not distinguishing between each other.

On top of the wardrobe were two suitcases; without looking, they should be seasonal clothes.

Then there was that large bed. Jiang Ye walked over and sat down.

The bed was very sturdy. After lying down, a comforting scent lingered, drilling from his nose into his heart.

Unknowingly, Jiang Ye fell into a deep sleep.

His consciousness sank into a vast world. As he looked around, a version of himself appeared in front of him, looking exactly like him but wearing the clothes of his past life.

"You've come. How did you get yourself into such a sorry state? Aren't you omnipotent?"

"You, are you me?"

Jiang Ye frowned. If he didn't possess the memories of two lifetimes, he wouldn't believe such a bizarre thing could exist in the world.

"I am you, and I am not you. You can understand it as: you in a parallel universe, who made different choices...

In short, I borrowed the power of the Great Shaman to preserve a soul fragment. It was you who activated the jade pendant and released me."

"Jiang Ye's" eyes were dark and unclear, and his soul body was becoming increasingly transparent.

"My time is running out. I have come to give you one last gift. I hope that in this lifetime, you will live well with your beloved wife and have a stable life."

After speaking, he turned into a streak of light and drilled into Jiang Ye's heart.

Mysterious and eerie Sanskrit sounds echoed in the blank world. Jiang Ye covered his ears, but he was still shaken by the Sanskrit sounds, his internal organs feeling as if they were about to burn...

"Daddy?"

"Brother, Daddy is sweating a lot."

"Let's go draw well water, get a towel, and wipe Daddy's sweat."

"Okay."

"Avoid the wounds. My mommy said you can't touch the wounds with water; there will be bacteria, and it will get infected!"

"Got it, big sister."

Several children busied themselves, wiping sweat for the man on the bed, taking care of him meticulously.

By the time Old Master Lu returned from buying salt, the children were already changing the second basin of water.

"What are you doing?"

Old Master Lu was dumbfounded. Could the children be playing with mud in the room?

"Great-grandparent, my daddy has a fever, um, we're wiping his sweat and taking care of him."

"Yes, Great-grandparent, I can testify, we are indeed taking care of Uncle."

Lian Lian, as the eldest sister, shouldered the heavy responsibility of taking care of her younger siblings; she was very sensible.

Old Master Lu suspiciously entered the master bedroom and checked his granddaughter's husband.

Good heavens, he was indeed running a fever, and it looked like the children had applied a towel to his forehead and wiped his body, but they had avoided the bandage area.

"Hmm, Lian Lian did a good job, not bad, not bad. It wasn't in vain that your uncle has always loved you."

"That's right."

Besides praising Lian Lian, if she had a tail, it would have been wagging like a propeller by now.

Suddenly, Jiang Ye on the bed opened his eyes, gasping for air. He was awake.

"Grandpa."

He had recovered his memory!

Looking at the children who cared about him, a smile appeared on his face. "Thank you, Niannian and Shuai Shuai for taking care of me, and Xiao Nuomi and Xiao Mantou. When I get better, I'll take you to eat ice cream, okay?"

"Okay!"

The children cheered. Eating ice cream! Ice cream was more expensive than popsicles, and it was milky, which they loved!

Illness comes like a mountain, but goes like pulling silk.

After Jiang Ye recovered his memory, under the meticulous care of his family, his body soon recovered as before—no, it was even stronger than before!

His arm strength and the internal energy he had previously felt unable to mobilize could now be easily used.

To put it this way, previously, when he climbed over a ten-meter obstacle, he needed to rely on the strength of his waist and abdomen, but now, he only needed a light kick to borrow force and climb five meters directly.

And he could climb continuously, not like before, when he needed to rest for a few breaths after climbing for a while.

To put it this way, if he were to be an instructor training new recruits, this batch of recruits would definitely be tortured miserably!

When doing the physical test, Jiang Ye went alone.

Thinking about it, perhaps it was because that soul fragment had actively merged with him, completely changing his constitution.

To avoid being taken to a research institute for dissection, it was better for him to keep a low profile.

Originally, he had planned it well, but one day his unreliable brother-in-law wanted to sneak attack him from behind, and he subconsciously dodged, his movements so fast that the naked eye couldn't even see him.

He was exposed, and everyone was frantically blocking him, wanting to learn, wanting to learn, begging for instruction!

Even Section Commander Han and the others were alarmed, asking him what exactly was going on.

So he made up a reason: that when he went to Dongbei with his wife, he saw an old man practicing Taiji Bagua Fist, and the person liked him, so he taught him a few moves, and then it became like this.

Anyway, no one had followed him the whole time to watch him, so he could make up whatever he wanted. When asked about the old man's appearance, he just said he didn't remember, he couldn't remember clearly.

When asked about the boxing technique, he chose a set of basic boxing techniques to teach the instructors in the army, and let the instructors teach those who were pestering him.

Gradually, some learned the basics, some were completely clueless, and some felt the uniqueness of the boxing technique and became fascinated by it.

And don't you know, the results were mixed, but it successfully extracted Jiang Ye from the situation. ===== CHAPTER 485 =====
