Chapter 446 It seems that he was wronged
When Tian Yong and his men arrived in front of the yard where Jiang Wenshan lived, they saw the soldier who had come back to report the news pacing anxiously at the door.
"Adjutant Tian, you are finally back. The commander was very angry." The soldier's shirt was soaked with sweat.
Tian Yong wiped his sweat with a handkerchief and said, "You go back, I will bring the person in now."
The soldier nodded and ran away immediately. The captain looked so scary.
Jiang Wenming and Jiang Jiyun followed into the yard and saw a group of people sitting in the main room.
When Jiang Wenshan suddenly stood up with an angry face and walked quickly to the door, his originally angry expression froze in an instant.
Because the person standing outside the door was actually someone he knew!
He opened his eyes wide, his gaze fixed on the child that Jiang Wenming was holding, and his whole body seemed to be under a spell, unable to move.
That’s right, this was the sneering little guy he saw before he fainted!
The child had two pigtails on his head, one of which was sticking up high and pointing to the sky, while the other one hung down listlessly.
After a while, Jiang Wenshan finally came back to his senses from his shock. His lips trembled slightly, and he asked in a slightly hoarse voice: "Wenming, you...you are actually still alive?"
His eyes were filled with disbelief and indescribable excitement.
Hearing this, Jiang Wenming smiled and replied calmly, "Yes, brother, it's not just me. Many people in the village are lucky enough to survive. My father, my brother, and brothers Wentao and Wensong, many of them have returned home safely."
Jiang Wenshan was overjoyed when he heard this, but then he frowned and said worriedly, "But I sent someone to go back last spring to get information, and they told me that the village had been abandoned long ago, and my house had collapsed and was in ruins. There was a lonely grave in the yard."
"Alas, those people finally found an old photo with a slightly burnt corner in the ruins of the house." As he said this, he reached out and took the photo frame handed over by Tian Yong, carefully stroking the yellowed old photo with his fingers, his eyes full of sadness.
Jiang Wenming walked over and looked at the photo that had just burned the spot where Jiang Jiyun's little baby was. He twitched his lips and said, "I remember this photo was taken when Xiao Yuan was about to leave home, and my sister-in-law took them to the photo studio in the county town. But there is still a stubborn little guy in this place."
Jiang Wenshan stared blankly at Jiang Wenming's finger pointing at the burned area.
Jiang Wenming narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling the scene of that day, and then slowly said: "That day, I saw it with my own eyes. I went to the county town with my sister-in-law and the others. Xiao Yuan stood beside my sister-in-law, and Xiao Yun was obviously unable to walk steadily, but was still very stubborn and insisted on standing on the other side of my sister-in-law. Didn't you see that one of my sister-in-law's hands was not placed naturally on her leg like usual?"
Jiang Jiyun still had some impression of the photo. However, the situation was urgent at the time, and half of the house suddenly collapsed. She only cared about packing up the useful things in the bedroom, and she didn't care about the items in the main room at all.
Hearing this, Jiang Wenshan's eyes involuntarily fell on the child in front of him who was staring at him with unkind eyes, and he murmured to himself: "Could it be...she is really my daughter?"
Jiang Wenming sighed and continued, "That's right, Brother Wenshan, she is really your daughter. After learning that you were captured, your sister-in-law was so anxious that she fainted on the spot."
"Later, Uncle Six took her pulse and found out that my sister-in-law was pregnant. This child has never seen you as her father since she was born. Moreover, she only played with her brother until she was three years old. After that, she spent the whole two years with my sister-in-law."
Jiang Wenshan looked at Jiang Jiyun and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything when he saw the child's cold eyes.
Several people behind Jiang Wenshan also came over and stared at Jiang Jiyun.
"Hey, Third Brother, this child really looks like you!"
"This little temper is quite similar."
"They are all ruthless!"
Jiang Wenming listened to the three people's comments and somewhat agreed with their statements.
Jiang Wenshan waited for a long time but the child never called him dad happily.
"Well, Xiaoyun, I'm your father." Jiang Wenshan came in front of the child and said, trying his best to control his loud voice.
Before Jiang Wenshan could even give his daughter a chance to speak, he was pushed aside by his three sworn brothers.
"I'm your uncle. My name is Yuan Tang, and I'm a sworn brother to your father." Yuan Tang introduced himself.
"It's your second uncle, Mai Quanyou." Mai Quanyou also said loudly.
"I'm your fourth uncle, Tao Dawei." After saying this, Tao Dawei stuffed a gold lock into Jiang Jiyun's hand.
Jiang Jiyun called out with a smile, "Uncle, Second Uncle, Fourth Uncle!"
"Eh!"
"Really good."
"Hey, Tao Laosi, when did you get this thing on you?" Mai Quanyou suddenly saw the child looking down at the thing in his hand and started to exclaim.
Jiang Wenshan's face became colder and colder. It seemed that this kid was very dissatisfied with him!
"Can we talk?" Jiang Wenshan said to the child.
"What did you say? Are you saying you are a traitor? Although my mother's death was not caused by you, I still can't forgive you!" Jiang Jiyun's eyes became red when he thought of the woman who died to save him.
"I'm not being a Chen Shimei. Your mother is the only woman I have. Over the years, I've risen from a small soldier to the current regiment commander. I fought the Japanese with my life. How could I have the time to look for a woman?" Jiang Wenshan explained to his daughter.
Jiang Jiyun said angrily, "You are lying. I heard you ask the female shopkeeper to take your wife's cheongsam with my own ears."
"It's for my wife. I made it for your mother." Jiang Wenshan nodded in affirmative answer.
"My mother is dead, why are you going to make a cheongsam for her? Are you going to burn it for her?" Jiang Jiyun couldn't help but shed tears.
Jiang Wenshan looked confused and said, "Yes, every year on your mother's birthday I would prepare gifts for her. I also saved up some jewelry for her. But when I knew she was gone, I gave her the ones that could be burned, and the ones that could not be burned I would bury in her grave when I returned someday."
Jiang Jiyun stared blankly at the man with the bruises on his face with his eyes wide open, feeling as if he had wronged him.
"No, I almost got tricked by you. You even have a mistress." Jiang Jiyun's voice of accusation was noticeably lower.
"What do you mean by mistress? She is the widow of our fallen comrade. Your uncles and aunts and I will take care of her." Jiang Wenshan explained quickly.
Yuan Tang and his friends also came over to explain, "Those are your fifth uncle's wife and child. We all helped them, so there are some rumors outside the city."
Jiang Jiyun really wanted to crawl into the ground now. She had really wronged him.
