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

Chapter 693: Going to the City to Ask Someone to Take Care of Me

They went to see the house and found that the roof made of grass by Xiao Wei and his team was almost finished.

Jiang Jiyun stood aside, watching the soldiers skillfully weaving straw mats, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart at their superb craftsmanship.

Jiang Wenming and Peng Yongyan also came over carrying two large baskets, placed the baskets gently on the ground, and then opened the lids.

He smiled and said to everyone, "Captain Qu, we've prepared some vegetable pancakes, some braised vegetables, and some pork ribs in soy sauce. Let's have lunch here today."

As he spoke, Jiang Wenming moved a basket into the tidied room.

When Qu Jing saw this, he quickly came over to help carry another basket and said, "Comrade Jiang, we brought our own dry food, so there's no need to go through so much trouble."

Jiang Wenming gently put down the basket in his hand, then waved his hand with a smile and said to Qu Jing, "Captain Qu, we are different from ordinary people. You soldiers have discipline and don't take a single needle or thread from ordinary people, but we are our own people! I'm going to make some delicious food for everyone, and you're not going to refuse?"

Qu Jing looked back and saw that his brothers had been eating well, dressing warmly, and were more motivated to fight the Japanese. He couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

At this time, Wang Dalong suddenly interrupted and said, "Company Commander, Comrade Jiang's stewed food skills are really unique. The taste has made the brothers in the camp drool. It's just that there are so many brothers in our camp, so we are embarrassed to ask for it. Let us have a taste today!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenming burst into laughter and said, "Haha, Brother Dalong is right. My family's braised dishes are indeed unique! My relatives in my hometown have opened a shop, and business is booming."

After hearing this, Qu Jing had an idea. Looking at the basket that was almost half a person's height and filled with fragrant braised dishes, he finally nodded in agreement.

He was a little embarrassed and said, "In that case, we won't be polite. However, you left all these braised dishes for us. Aren't you going to eat them yourself? We have dry food. Just leave some for us."

Jiang Wenming quickly explained, "Save your own rations for dinner. We need to go to the city to do some work. I'd like you to take care of these children here!"

"It's okay, we will keep an eye on it." Qu Jing looked at the children at the door.

On the other side, Jiang Jiyun was whispering to Xiao Lingchen and several others at the gate of the yard, explaining some important things.

Xiao Lingchen and several other older people listened carefully to every word of Jiang Jiyun, nodding from time to time to express their understanding and agreement.

Their expressions were solemn. They knew the importance of these words, as they were the rules they would rely on for their future survival.

After Jiang Jiyun finished speaking, she paused briefly, then took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Alright, Xiao Lingchen, come with us into the city now. If something serious happens in the future, you can go to the city and ask them for help. But you need to remember, this favor is lost every time you use it, so you must keep this in mind."

After Jiang Jiyun finished speaking, she slowly stood up and looked at the dozen or so people surrounding her.

Among these ten people, four were missing their tongues, but their limbs were still intact.

Three people lost their legs but still had their hands. They sat on the scooters given by Jiang Jiyun and used their hands to support themselves so that they could continue walking.

There are three others who have all their limbs intact and are not aphasic, but their IQ remains at the level of five or six years old, and they follow their older brothers obediently.

Among this group of people, only Xiao Lingchen stood there intact. His eyes were clear and firm as he looked at his team. From now on, he would be the backbone of everyone.

Later, Xiao Lingchen and others made full use of the connections and resources left by Jiang Jiyun to save one woman and child after another in this chaotic world.

As a result, this place gradually became a well-known charity home, providing shelter and warmth to countless people in need.

After Jiang Wenming and his group arrived in the city, they asked a few people and went straight to the clinic.

Inside the clinic, Mr. Qiao was treating a patient. When he saw Jiang Jiyun and Peng Yongyan, he stood up and greeted them warmly.

After Jiang Jiyun stated the purpose of his visit, he asked her to follow him to the back room for a detailed discussion.

Jiang Wenming and others waited patiently in the lobby.

After a long while, Jiang Jiyun came out of the room with a smile on her face, and seemed to have had a very pleasant conversation with Mr. Qiao.

Then, Jiang Jiyun pulled Xiao Lingchen in front of Mr. Qiao and introduced him, "Mr. Qiao, this is the child I mentioned to you."

Mr. Qiao looked at Xiao Lingchen, smiled and nodded, then said to him, "Son, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, feel free to come to me. If I'm not here, you can also go to my son."

As he spoke, Mr. Qiao took out a rosewood plaque from his arms and handed it to Xiao Lingchen.

Xiao Lingchen took the wooden plaque with both hands. The plaque was exquisitely crafted, with some complex patterns and words engraved on it. It was obviously a token of Mr. Qiao's family.

Xiao Lingchen looked at Mr. Qiao gratefully, then suddenly knelt on his knees and kowtowed several times to him, saying, "Thank you, sir!"

Upon seeing this, Mr. Qiao hurried forward to help Xiao Lingchen up, saying, "Child, get up quickly. There's no need for such a grand ceremony. I'm not doing this because of you, but because your good friend has already paid me, and I'm just fulfilling my promise to her. So, the person you should really thank is her."

Jiang Jiyun smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Qiao. I also want to go find Uncle Yan. I wonder if you can help me find the way?"

Old Qiao said in a very good mood, "It's okay, I'll let my son take you there. The old man rarely sees people after he retired from the underworld."

Old Qiao looked up at his eldest son who was standing beside him with a bewildered look on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Boss, take them to find your Uncle Yan quickly. He will take care of anything."

Although Qiao Qingnian didn't understand why, he was still relatively obedient.

So without saying a word, he led those people straight towards the Yan family.

At this time, Jiang Jiyuan and others encountered unexpected troubles.

After communicating with the city officials, they went together to rescue the people.

However, just as they were on their way out of the city, they were suddenly intercepted by a group of unidentified people.

Jiang Jiyun over there had just reached an agreement with Yan Bo. She didn't expect that things would go more smoothly than she had imagined.

Moreover, Yan Bo had no children, so he liked the smart and clever Xiao Lingchen very much and immediately asked to adopt him as his grandson.

After hearing the news, the Yan family's housekeeper was happily preparing a banquet to celebrate this happy event.

Suddenly, a burst of gunfire and explosions rang out in the city. Jiang Jiyun, Jiang Wenming and others ran out after hearing it.
