"Well, you can't blame me if you get beaten! Who told you to let others spread those rumors?" Jiang Jiyun seemed very uncomfortable. He fiddled with the corner of his clothes with his hands and argued with a stutter.

Her eyes flickered and she didn't dare to look the other person in the eye.

"Puchi... I'm really sorry, I really couldn't help it. Hahahaha... you two father and daughter can be said to have known each other through fighting!" Yuan Tang finally couldn't hold back his laughter and burst out laughing.

Mai Quanyou and Tao Dawei also started laughing, and their laughter echoed in the room, as if it was going to break through the roof.

Tian Yong and Jiang Wenming couldn't help but raise the corners of their mouths.

Jiang Jiyun's face flushed instantly. She lowered her head and muttered softly, "I'm sorry, I really shouldn't have done that. Actually, at first I didn't recognize you as my father. I just felt that you looked a little bit like my eldest brother."

"Besides, the rumors about you outside are not very good, so I took a little revenge on impulse." At the end, her voice became smaller and smaller, almost like the hum of a mosquito.

Jiang Wenshan looked helplessly at his somewhat embarrassed daughter, and asked with a smile: "Just because I look like your brother, you want to hit someone? What kind of weird thoughts are in your head?"

Hearing his father's question, Jiang Jiyun quickly swallowed his saliva and began to make up a story: "Oh, I was thinking of my brother who dresses himself up all day long, has no manners at all, and keeps a mistress outside, and doesn't care about his wife and children at home."

"When I thought about my nephew and niece crying, I was so angry that I wanted to rush over and beat him up to vent my anger. But when I saw you today, I couldn't control my emotions and beat you up as if you were him..."

"We don't know where your brother is yet, and we don't know when he will get married. It's a bit early to miss your sister-in-law and nephews and nieces now." Jiang Wenshan said as he reached out and touched his daughter's pigtails.

"cough……"

Jiang Wenming cleared his throat and said, "Brother Wenshan, Xiao Yuan got married in 1940 and had twins last year. He now lives in Hu City with his uncle and his family."

"Ah? In Hu City, you got married and gave birth to twins? Then why did you come here?" Jiang Wenshan looked at his cousin and then at his daughter and asked.

Jiang Wenming rolled his eyes and said, "Many people from our village were taken to other places. We are looking for them everywhere. My father and his family were found in the northeast, and Sister Wen Yan was found in Hebei. We don't know where some of the others were taken. We can only look for them everywhere."

"There are only two of you. How come you are so brave? Aren't you afraid of encountering the Japanese? I will arrange people to continue searching. You just stay here." Jiang Wenshan thought about the chaos outside. Now there are natural disasters and man-made disasters. Basically, nine out of ten houses are empty.

"Third brother, I have someone arrange a banquet to welcome your daughter and cousin. We won't disturb your family reunion today. We will invite your niece to visit our house in two days." Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Yuan Tang stood up and was about to go back.

Tao Dawei patted Jiang Wenshan on the shoulder and said, "Third brother, you and your daughter should have a good reunion today. I will go to the restaurant to book a table and give a good welcome to my niece some other day."

"Adjutant Tian, go and see Captain Yuan and the others off." Jiang Wenshan instructed Tian Yong.

After watching the crowd leave, there were only three of them left in the room. Jiang Wenming sat down on a chair and said, "Oh, I'm so tired."

Jiang Wenming looked at Jiang Wenshan and said, "Brother Wenshan, there is a drought in Yu Province now. Many people can't eat or drink water. Don't you care about it?"

Jiang Wenshan sighed, "This matter is under the jurisdiction of the government. The government and the military are separate. It is not something that people like us can control."

Jiang Jiyun slowly lowered his head and said softly, "Dad, we are leaving tomorrow and we have to go to Xinshi next."

There was a hint of determination and firmness in her voice.

Hearing this, Jiang Wenshan suddenly raised his head, his eyes widened, his face full of surprise and worry, and asked hurriedly: "What are you going there for? Don't you know? There are Japanese troops stationed there! Now we are only temporarily truce with them because of this natural disaster. No, I will never allow you to take risks over there!" His tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Jiang Wenming on the side opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something to persuade him, but when he saw Jiang Jiyun's determined expression, he couldn't help but sigh again, and finally chose to remain silent.

Jiang Jiyun took a deep breath, stared at Jiang Wenshan with a sharp gaze, and said solemnly: "Dad, you have your mission, and I also have mine. Only by completely driving away or killing those devils, your grandchildren will no longer experience the painful separation of flesh and blood like us, and no longer have to rush to this battlefield full of smoke and danger."

Her eyes were extremely determined, as if burning with a flame that would never go out.

After hearing this, Jiang Wenshan felt a pang of sadness in his heart and his eyes became slightly moist.

He gently stretched out his arms and tightly embraced his biological daughter whom he met for the first time. He said with deep emotion: "My child, these things should be borne by your father. You really don't have to bear such a heavy burden..."

At this moment, the heart of this man who had experienced many vicissitudes of life was filled with love and guilt for his daughter. Over the years, he had crawled out of the pile of dead bodies and escaped death time and time again. It was the thought that his family members were waiting for him to return that kept him alive.

This hug was the first time for both father and daughter.

Although the road ahead is full of difficulties and obstacles, they all know that for the sake of the country and the nation, some responsibilities must be bravely shouldered, even at a huge cost. However, Jiang Wenshan was reluctant to let his children take risks.

"Ever since my mother used her own body to protect me and died tragically under the Japanese bayonet, I have shouldered that mission! I am indeed still very young, but that doesn't mean I am any worse than you adults!" Jiang Jiyun pushed away the person who was hugging him with a determined look on his face and said with a firm and serious look.

At this time, Jiang Wenming helplessly looked at the father and daughter who were refusing to give in to each other and were in a stalemate. He couldn't help but say, "I say, you two, are you really going to waste this rare time together? Can we sit down and talk calmly first?"

Hearing this, Jiang Wenshan turned to look at his cousin who had always seemed unreliable, frowned and asked, "What on earth are you hiding from me? Also, what kind of important mission is it that requires such a young child who has no ability to protect himself to take the risk to execute? If it really can't be done, just tell me, and I'll take care of it!"
