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

Chapter 1070 Going to the Sun Family for the Funeral

Dong Duoyu suddenly turned her head, her gaze fixed on Xu Fan, her eyes firm and serious. "Xiaoyun is definitely not that kind of person! You mustn't wrong her for no reason!"

Xu Fan noticed that the expressions on the faces of the people around him seemed a little strange, and he realized that his words might have caused a misunderstanding.

So he quickly explained, "Oh dear, you've got it wrong! How could I have such thoughts? I trust Xiaoyun completely! Actually, I just suddenly thought of something... um... well, my eldest daughter doesn't seem to be very pretty, does she?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jiyun's eyes widened, and she stared at Xu Fan in astonishment.

You should know that she is now a highly experienced professional midwife who has delivered several babies.

This little guy is clearly much prettier than the other newborns. I don't know what Xu Fan is thinking!

Many children are born as tiny as newborn kittens, with wrinkled faces, looking just like little old men or women.

At this moment, Dong Duoyu glanced at Xu Fan guiltily, recalling the first thing she blurted out when she saw her daughter after giving birth: "Why is my child so ugly?"

Jiang Jiyun glanced helplessly at Xu Fan and Dong Duoyu, and thought to herself: This couple is truly a match made in heaven!

The couple even spoke in the same tone and manner.

Unable to contain his curiosity any longer, Xu Fan asked Jiang Jiyun, "Xiaoyun, you're studying medicine, so take a look at my little darling. Her hair is so sparse and uneven; won't she grow up to be a horrible bald woman? That's not a pretty look for a girl!"

He had barely finished speaking when a low, suppressed laugh came from behind him.

Xiao Tian and the others tried desperately to hold it in, but they simply couldn't suppress it.

This was followed by a series of soft coughs and deliberately concealed throat clearings. The others present couldn't help but chuckle at Xu Fan's words, but they were too embarrassed to laugh out loud.

Jiang Jiyun turned her head in surprise, her gaze falling on the little baby in Dong Duoyu's arms who was happily blowing bubbles and playing.

She stared blankly at the baby's pitiful few hairs, and suddenly the images of the other babies she had delivered years ago flashed through her mind.

So, full of doubt, she asked her brother Jiang Jiyuan, "Brother, shouldn't all newborns look like this? But I don't seem to remember any newborns looking that different. This girl is much fatter than those babies!"

Jiang Jiyuan followed his sister's gaze to Xu Fan, then nodded and said, "Yes, generally speaking, most newborn babies have this condition."

He thought for a moment and said, "However, if the family is well-off, they may pay special attention to supplementing the child's nutrition, and the child may be born with thicker hair."

Just then, Dong Duoyu noticed the child's head burrowing into her arms and asked, "Xiaoyun, is the baby hungry?"

Jiang Jiyun glanced at her and said, "Brother Xu Fan, why don't you take the baby to the car to breastfeed? It might be painful for Sister Duoyu to breastfeed for the first time, so please take good care of her."

She turned around abruptly, staring intently at Jiang Jiyuan, and said in a serious tone, "There are Japanese spies hiding in Lujia Village, and there are many villagers in the village. If we launch a forced attack, it will likely cause serious casualties."

After listening, Jiang Jiyuan nodded solemnly, indicating that he understood the situation.

Then, he reached out and gently wiped the mud off his sister's cheek, saying, "Don't worry, we all understand the implications. The higher-ups have already contacted the local authorities and arranged for backup, so we just need to wait for them here."

However, when the words were about to come out, Jiang Jiyuan suddenly hesitated.

After a moment of silence, he still spoke up and suggested, "Considering the current situation and the fact that your and your uncle's identities have been exposed, I think it would be best for you and your uncle to go back to the county town with Xu Fan and his wife first."

He looked at his uncle's face and said, "Of course, you should also pay attention to safety along the way. You can disguise yourselves appropriately to avoid causing unnecessary trouble."

Jiang Jiyun raised his wrist, glanced at the date displayed on his watch, and after a moment's thought, replied, "Alright, that's fine too. After all, I promised to attend Teacher Sun's wife's funeral, so this is a good opportunity to go back."

She looked at Zhang An and the others and said, "Then you need to be extra careful. These enemies seem to have something that can evade thermal imaging detection. Sometimes you shouldn't rely on that too much."

After Dong Duoyu finished feeding the baby, Xu Fan poked his head out and called to them, "We can set off now!"

Jiang Wenming drove the car, and Jiang Jiyun sat in the passenger seat and left.

On the way, Xu Fan and his wife discussed going to the county town to buy clothes and diapers for their child.

He agreed to everything Dong Duoyu said, and many of his baby's things were in his space, but he didn't mind preparing extra diapers and clothes for the baby.

Jiang Wenming, who was driving, asked, "Do you need our help?"

Xu Fan understood what Jiang Wenming meant. "Uncle, really, there's no need. If we're really short of money, we won't be polite to you. The money I've saved and Duoyu's dowry are all in my hands. The two of them won't be short of money."

Jiang Jiyun didn't know how much money Xu Fan had, but Dong Duoyu's dowry was more than enough for them to use up even if she had ten or eight more children.

“A newborn baby changes every day. If you buy too many, the baby will probably be too small before it even reaches your body,” Jiang Wenming reminded the couple.

Dong Duoyu smiled and said, "It's alright, then let the second son wear it."

Looking at the heartwarming scene of the family of three, Jiang Jiyun thought that what she and her fellow people were doing would soon be realized, and then all families would be just as happy and warm.

After entering the county town, Jiang Wenming disguised himself as a middle-aged man with burn marks on his face and followed Xu Fan and the others.

Jiang Jiyun put on a wig and drew freckles on her face as she walked toward Teacher Sun's house.

Because she had been there once before, Jiang Wenming felt comfortable letting her go alone. The group agreed on a meeting point before parting ways.

When Jiang Jiyun arrived at the Sun family's courtyard, he saw Old Man Wu arranging for people to carry the coffin.

Grandma Wu asked, "Didn't Jiajia come back with you? Her mother is being buried today, aren't you going to see her off one last time?"

“Grandma, Jiajia is still terrified by what happened that day. She and her uncle have been taken to a big hospital. I think her aunt in heaven would want her to be alright.” After saying this, Jiang Jiyun went into the courtyard and knelt down in front of the prayer mat to kowtow.

"Auntie, today I'm here on behalf of my brother and sister to see you off. May your spirit bless them from heaven!!!"
