Traveling through the 1940s, the whole village was massacred at the beginning

The smile on Jiang Jiyun's face froze. Seeing Jiang Wanting's fake smile, she called out "Sister Wanting!"

"You still know that we are your sister and sister-in-law, and you actually drugged us!" Jiang Wanting glared at her angrily.

"Uh! Sister-in-law, Sister Wanting, I really didn't drug you on purpose. I was so nervous at the time that my hands shook and the powder spilled out."

Du Wanqing came over and looked at her. "Why didn't you give us the antidote at that time?"

"Even if you took the antidote, you wouldn't wake up right away! You two went down to the cellar in a daze and fainted in the cellar. I was busy packing up and throwing things in the cellar. I had just hidden myself when I saw Aunt Guilan and the others from the village bringing the Imperial Army to our house to arrest people."

"At that time, I was only paying attention to the situation in the yard and didn't have time to feed you the antidote. Then I heard those people say that they would capture the villagers and hand them over to the devils."

"I originally thought that they wanted to harm us and didn't want to bother with them, but then I realized that John was indeed rescued by us. If someone threatened me to betray others with the lives of my sister-in-law and Wanting, I might do the same."

"Besides, not all the people in the village are bad. I can't be selfish and watch the whole village die just because those few people betrayed us."

Du Wanqing and Jiang Wanting fell silent when they heard this, and lowered their heads with grim expressions.

"Let's cross the river after a few days when our injuries are a little better! This is not our home anyway, and I miss Sixth Grandpa, Uncle Wenming and Xiaobao too!" Jiang Jiyun said as he approached Du Wanqing.

Du Wanqing turned her head to look at her sister-in-law's cat-like face and stood up.

"I'll go boil some water. You and Xuyang can clean up and change your clothes!" Du Wanqing went to change the pot and boil water.

"Is the Sixth Master of the Jiang Family here?"

While they were busy in the yard, they heard someone outside calling "Master Jiang Liu".

Du Wanqing walked over and saw a few old people outside the yard, so she went out.

"Grandpas, do you have anything to ask my Sixth Grandpa? My Sixth Grandpa and the others have already left. If we can help, we will do our best." Du Wanqing looked at them seriously.

"I'm an old man. I've brought a few old brothers here to apologize." Cai Zhuangyan said ashamedly.

Cai Silei translated it into Mandarin, and Du Wanqing and the others looked a little better.

Another old man stepped forward and said, "We were forced to do this. Those yellow dogs used the children in the village to force us. The crying of the children made the women lose their composure. I'm really sorry."

After the child translated it, Jiang Jiyun nodded. This was similar to what everyone had guessed.

"We came here to thank you! We met Siming, and he said that it was your family who reported the news and saved us, otherwise there would be no one alive in our village."

Yan Xuyang came over after hearing the child's translation and said, "My sister secretly followed the Imperial Army that was escorting you. She left marks along the way, and we found you based on the marks."

The child explained it to the elderly people in the local dialect. The elderly people were about to kneel down to Jiang Jiyun, but were stopped by Du Wanqing and Yan Xuyang.

"Please don't do this, dear old people. It will shorten the children's lifespans." Du Wanqing said anxiously.

After Cai Silei told this to a few grandfathers, he came and knelt in front of Jiang Jiyun, who was wearing dirty and tattered clothes and had various wounds on his body.

"Thank you, little sister. You saved our lives. Grandpa and the others can't kneel, but I can." Cai Silei said as he was about to kowtow.

"No, get up quickly!" Jiang Jiyun limped over to help him.

"Grandfathers, it's so hard to live in this world. We all support each other. My sixth grandfather has already crossed the river to settle down. We will go over and reunite with them in a few days. I don't know if we will see each other again in the future. As long as everyone doesn't blame each other, it will be fine."

After Cai Silei relayed his words to a few people, they all nodded and put down the dishes they had brought.

Cai Silei said, "Our houses have been burned down and we have nothing to give. This is a little gift that everyone picked from the fields. You must accept it."

Du Wanqing looked at the dishes they put down and turned over to give them some salted fish.

The old men refused to take the food, but Du Wanqing forced it on them. "We're leaving in a few days, and we can't eat all this salted fish. It's not safe to carry the smell around. It would be bad if we run away and hide with the strong smell of salted fish on our bodies."

After hearing what Du Wanqing said, several old men took the salted fish back home. Salt was hard to buy at that time, and they could survive for several days with the salted fish.

"The Jiang family is helping us. They are indeed from a big family. Their hearts and minds are not comparable to those of us!"

A few old people went back to the only remaining house, which was the ancestral hall of their village. As soon as they arrived, they heard the women's nagging complaints and curses.

"Tian Guilan, who were you mumbling about just now?"

"Second Uncle! I curse that Jiang family. If they hadn't saved that foreigner, would our village be implicated by them? Would my Xiaofang die so without dignity?" Tian Guilan said with hatred in her eyes.

"Snapped!"

Tian Guilan covered her face in disbelief and looked at her father-in-law. "Dad, you hit me? Xiaofang is also your granddaughter! She died so disgracefully. Why did you hit me instead of standing up for her?"

"Your father-in-law beat you because you caused trouble. When the Imperial Army questioned the foreign devils, no one said anything. They were all ready to leave. It was you who spoke out loud!" Tian Guilan's mother-in-law came over and wanted to strangle the woman to death.

Tian Guilan's face turned pale as her mother-in-law and the villagers stared at her coldly.

"As for Xiaofang's death, I really want to kill you, woman. Didn't you push her to the Japanese? You, a cold-blooded and heartless woman, pushed your own daughter to the Japanese to be tortured. You are simply a beast!" The old lady couldn't stop her tears from falling. She lost her granddaughter just like that.

"I was just scared at the time. I didn't do it on purpose. It was the Jiang family who did it. They..."

"Snapped!"

When the old lady saw that she was pushing the responsibility onto others again, she went up and slapped her again.

"Uncle! I want to divorce my son's wife! If she still stays in my house, I don't know whether my two remaining granddaughters and grandson can live to wait for their father to come back and reunite. Everyone saw how my eldest granddaughter died." The old lady cried while wiping her tears.

"Uncle, I also agree to divorce my son's wife. This disaster in the village was also caused by her. You saw how the two children of the Jiang family saved us. There was not a single good thing about those two children. In the end, she said that the Jiang family harmed our village and Xiaofang and the others."

The old men who went to Jiang's house looked at each other and nodded, "We all agree to divorce!"
