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

When Jiang Wenming finally carried the unconscious Jiang Wenyan back to the yard where he lived, Jiang Jixue, who had been worried all the time, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Jiyun led Ma Chao towards the dilapidated house that Jiang Wenyan mentioned. They were looking for the person named Cuilan that Jiang Wenyan mentioned.

After a while, they arrived in front of this dilapidated courtyard.

All I saw was that the walls around the courtyard were low and dilapidated, covered with traces of erosion by time. The courtyard was overgrown with weeds, and it looked desolate.

Ma Chao walked to the gate and called softly, "Excuse me, is anyone there?"

His voice was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the silent environment.

Jiang Jiyun also poked his head out curiously and looked into the yard, while shouting, "Excuse me, is there anyone here? My aunt Jiang Wenyan asked me to pick you up!"

Just then, a slight noise suddenly came from the house.

Then, a woman holding a pistol and looking alert appeared in front of them. The woman looked very haggard and weak, and seemed to fall down at any time, but the pistol in her hand was not to be underestimated.

Dong Cuilan heard a child's voice coming from outside and heard Jiang Wenyan's name. She relaxed her vigilance a little and slowly stood up, holding on to the wall.

When she saw clearly that there was a young man and a half-grown child standing outside the gate, her tense nerves did not completely relax.

She still pointed the gun at them and shouted, "Stand still, or I'll really shoot you! Tell me, what happened to Jiang Wenyan?"

Jiang Jiyun explained, "We were seen by our aunt at the market early in the morning. She was wearing ragged clothes and a gray cloth covering her face. She came to us to borrow money to buy medicine."

"My aunt just took some medicine and she's a little weak. She asked us to come pick you up, saying that you were injured and asked us to save you."

Dong Cuilan began to believe Jiang Jiyun's words. Her tense body relaxed at once and she became unsteady and fell to one side.

Ma Chao and Jiang Jiyun quickly ran towards her. Ma Chao helped Jiang Jiyun up and said, "Xiaoyun, she has a high fever."

"Oh! Let's take her back for a thorough check-up." Jiang Jiyun saw that Dong Cuilan's condition was much more serious than Jiang Wenyan's.

Jiang Jiyun and Jiang Jixue were two girls who did not have the strength to help Dong Cuilan take off her clothes and wash them, so Jiang Wenming had to pay the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law from next door to come over.

Jiang Jiyun made up a tragic life story, which made the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law feel so sorry for Dong Cuilan.

"This young wife has suffered a lot! She had a miscarriage because she was hiding from the Japanese and didn't get enough rest or take any medicine. You must go find a doctor and get some medicine, otherwise you will have a disease for the rest of your life!" The old lady gave these instructions to Dong Cuilan after she woke up after taking the special medicine.

"Thank you, Auntie. I understand." Dong Cuilan replied with tears in her eyes.

Jiang Jiyun brought a large sum of money to the old lady and said, "Grandma, my aunts have already seen the doctor. They will be fine after taking medicine for two days. I would also like to trouble you to help explain to the villagers in the next two days. Although we are only staying here for two days, we cannot damage the reputation of your village."

Ever since Ma Chao carried Dong Cuilan into the yard, some women in the village have been looking in. They didn't want to cause trouble, but what if someone reported them?

The old lady took the dollar and understood what the family meant. She sighed and said, "When you moved in, I knew you were not ordinary people. Several of my sons went to fight the Japanese. I think those guys outside are just like my sons."

"Grandma's son also joined the army?" Jiang Jiyun looked into the old lady's eyes and found no signs of her lying.

"Well, my eldest, second and third sons all followed the child's father to fight the Japanese. Only a young son and two daughters-in-law are left at home. Fortunately, my two daughters-in-law were pregnant and gave birth to children for my family." The old lady's eyes turned red as she spoke.

"Mom, why are you saying these things to a little kid? She's still just a child." The old lady's eldest daughter-in-law was rubbing Dong Cuilan's back a little embarrassedly.

"Haha...that's just what I said. Don't worry, little girl. I will chase those gossipers away when I go out later. I won't cause any trouble for you." The old lady put the dollars in her arms and assured Jiang Jiyun.

When the old lady took her daughter-in-law away, Jiang Wenming took out two pieces of dried meat and stuffed them into their arms.

Jiang Jixue knew that the person with her aunt was also in poor health, so she served chicken soup to both patients.

Dong Cuilan was lying on the kang and said to Jiang Wenyan who was lying next to her, "I am indebted to you for your great favor this time. I don't know how to repay you."

"We have a life-and-death friendship. If you hadn't saved me, your right leg wouldn't be like this. So, should I accept your favor?" Jiang Wenyan was unhappy to see her friend say that.

Jiang Jiyun and Jiang Jixue came in together. "Aunts, get up and drink chicken soup."

"Xiao Yun, we aunts haven't eaten meat for a long time. Our bodies can't handle eating so much all of a sudden." Jiang Wenyan sat up and looked at the two full bowls of chicken soup filled with meat and refused.

Jiang Jiyun knew what she meant. "Aunts, take it. You'll be fine. I've already given you medicine. Your bodies have basically recovered. You're just too thin and need to be nourished."

"Really?"

"What kind of medicine is so powerful?"

The two patients looked at the child in the fluffy hat in surprise and said seriously, "Of course."

Jiang Jiyun came to Dong Cuilan and said seriously, "Aunt Dong, your right leg must be reattached before you can be like a normal person."

Dong Cuilan opened her eyes wide and looked at the serious-looking child and asked excitedly, "Can my legs really return to normal?"

"Yes, but you will have to endure a little hardship. We will break the leg bone at the crooked part of your leg, and then use medicine to treat you so that you can recover." Jiang Jiyun promised.

"I can endure hardship, can you give me treatment now?" Dong Cuilan wished her leg could be cured now.

"No, you are too weak. You need to rest for two days." Jiang Jiyun refused her.

"Cui Lan, why don't you wait a few days? Our health is really too poor." Jiang Wenyan patted the back of her hand and advised her.

Dong Cuilan knew that she was a little anxious and smiled awkwardly.

“Dang! Dang! Dang!…”

Suddenly, the big bell at the entrance of the village rang. Jiang Jiyun asked the three women to stay in the house and ran out.

Ma Chao and his companions were having dinner in the main hall. They put down their bowls and chopsticks, picked up their weapons, and went out to see the situation.

Before I even left the yard, I saw the old lady next door coming out of the yard with her daughter-in-law and grandson, carrying bags on their backs.

The old lady shouted to Jiang Jiyun and the others in the yard, "Follow us! The devils are coming!"
