Chapter 317 Jiang Wenming's Engagement
"That's good, brother. My uncle and I raided the enemy's treasury and pharmaceutical factory, and also looted the ammunition from several of their warships at the dock..."
Jiang Jiyuan's eyes became redder as he listened to his sister mumbling about their achievements over the past few months.
Hearing the ease in her words, he knew they had suffered a lot in the process. How could it be so easy in the Japanese lair?
"Brother, I seem to be targeted by someone with special abilities in Sakura Country." Jiang Jiyun suddenly felt a chill on his back.
She held her cell phone and looked behind the ship. She was sure that the damn Onmyoji was chasing them.
When Jiang Jiyuan heard that his sister was being targeted, his face turned pale and he said nervously, "Then you must put your own safety first. I will report the matter of the Northeast Coal Mine to my superiors. Someone will be coming over. You should return quickly."
"Brother, I can't go back. They can find me wherever I go. I can't drag my family down. I have to get rid of those people before I can go back safely." Jiang Jiyun looked at the darkness with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Jiang Jiyun, you've become so bold. You don't listen to your brother? Do you want to be beaten?..." Jiang Jiyun threw the phone to Jiang Wenming and ran away. Her brother was already cursing.
Jiang Wenming was so frightened when he saw the thing thrown at him that he hurriedly caught it. When he turned around, he could no longer see the little figure.
"Xiao Yuan, stop scolding her. She threw the phone to me and ran away." Jiang Wenming said helplessly to Jiang Jiyuan who was angry on the phone.
When Jiang Jiyuan heard his uncle's voice, he wanted to ask about their specific situation, but suddenly he heard a woman's voice, "Jiang Wenming, I have something to tell you."
Jiang Jiyuan and Jiang Liuye, who was listening attentively, both had their eyes light up and they spoke with their mouths.
When Jiang Wenming heard Xiang Xiuying's words, he quickly put his phone in his pocket and asked nervously, "Xiuying, you, you, what's the matter?"
"Does Jiang Wenming have a partner?" Xiang Xiuying pursed her lips and looked at Jiang Wenming nervously.
Jiang Wenming shook his head awkwardly and said, "No, my family was hit by misfortune. My father and brothers were captured by the Japanese, and my mother died tragically under the Japanese bayonet. My sixth uncle is the only male elder left in the family, and there are a bunch of nephews and nieces. It is unlikely that I will get married in this lifetime."
"So how old are you this year?" Xiang Xiuying lowered her head and breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that he had no partner.
"Seventeen. After September 9th, it will be eighteen." Jiang Wenming answered with a red face.
"Well, my name is Xiang Xiuying. I'm eighteen years old. My parents are still alive. My eldest and second brothers joined the Northeast Army the year the war started. They both died on the battlefield. My third brother was studying at the Northeast Military Academy. I haven't heard from him since the war."
"I am the only girl in my family now. If I date you, can our child have my last name?"
Jiang Wenming looked at Xiang Xiuying with a blank mind. He looked at Xiang Xiuying's face getting redder and redder under the light. "Hehe...you, you, are you attracted to me?"
"Puchi..." Jiang Jiyuan immediately covered his mouth with his hands. Why was his uncle so stupid?
Mr. Jiang Liu was smiling with his teeth showing. His nephew actually had a crush on him because of the cabbage, but he was so stupid that he didn't even know how to eat the cabbage.
"Yes, I like you. Are you willing?" Xiang Xiuying's face was blushing. She was eager to settle down with Jiang Wenming, but she was afraid that her parents would force a marriage on her when she returned.
Rather than marrying a stranger you are not familiar with, it is better to marry someone you like.
"I...I..." Jiang Wenming was so nervous that he couldn't utter a complete sentence.
"He is willing!" Jiang Jiyun said it loudly for him.
"Say yes, silly boy!" Mr. Jiang Liu on the phone was so anxious that he wanted to answer for him.
Xiang Xiuying turned around and saw Jiang Jiyun, Jiang Jibai, Jiang Jijian and Jiang Wentao, with Yang Zelin and the others behind them all looking at them with smiles.
Jiang Wenming quickly stepped forward and stood in front of Xiang Xiuying and said, "You, you all heard it? I was the one who pulled Xiuying aside to confess my love for me, she, she..."
"Uncle, do I have an aunt now?" Jiang Jiyun had noticed that there was something wrong with the look in their eyes.
She didn't even know when these two people fell in love with each other. They were so busy along the way, could there be something she didn't know?
"Congratulations, uncle and aunt!"
"Congratulations, uncle and aunt!"
……
Jiang Wentao walked forward and looked at Jiang Wenming with satisfaction. "Miss Xiang is a good girl. You must treat her well in the future. Do you know? Do you know the family traditions and mottos of our Jiang family?"
"Hehe...Brother Wentao, I get it. I will treat Xiuying well. She will be my wife from now on, and I will never let her down!" Jiang Wenming reached out and took Xiuying's hand and promised.
"Xiuying, have you made up your mind? Have you chosen him?" A middle-aged man came out of the cabin and asked her.
"Uncle Dashan, I have chosen him. I have chosen him since the day he saved me. He is the one who changes the bandage on my stomach wound every day. Uncle, it can only be him." Xiang Xiuying said with a blushing face.
Uncle Dashan and the people behind him had seen Xiang Xiuying's injuries. She said that her stomach was cut by a bayonet and her intestines were out. She thought she would die there quietly. It was uncle and nephew Jiang Wenming who saved her.
"Young man, you were the one who saved Xiuying, and she has fallen in love with you and has chosen you. Please treat her well in the future." Dashan saw that Jiang Wenming was honest and simple, and he looked good, but the bruises on his face had not faded yet. He just hoped that he could treat Xiuying well.
"I will. I promise with my life that I will treat Xiuying well." Jiang Wenming promised again.
Jiang Jiyun's eyes rolled and she ran back to the cabin, took out her cross-body bag and ran out again.
"Uncle! Both sides have relatives here today, please give this to my future aunt!" Jiang Jiyun took out a jewelry box.
"What is this?" Jiang Jibai asked curiously as he looked at the big red box.
Jiang Jiyun said with a smile, "This is the money my uncle saved for his wife."
When Jiang Wenming saw his niece winking at him, he took the box and opened it. Xiang Xiuying saw a pair of exquisitely crafted dragon and phoenix bracelets, a large gold necklace with flowers that looked like a symbol of prosperity, and matching earrings with two flowers in the box.
Uncle Dashan and the others nodded and smiled as they watched Jiang Wenming help Xiang Xiuying put on the jewelry.
"Isn't it too exaggerated?" Xiang Xiuying watched Jiang Wenming put the jewelry on her.
"Aunt, this is your engagement gift today. My sixth grandfather and fourth grandfather and other elders are not here, but my uncle Wentao is your cousin, he can help witness it." Jiang Jiyun went over and helped Jiang Wentao walk over.
"I'm here to write the marriage certificate and ask this brother to witness it." Uncle Dashan walked into the cabin with a smile.
The smile on Jiang Jiyun's face gradually disappeared. She turned to look at the two people who were in love with each other, then turned to look at Jiang Wentao. When she saw that the smile on his face had also disappeared, she realized that something was wrong.
"Aren't you engaged? Why are you writing a marriage certificate now? Isn't this too hasty?" Yan Lin asked in confusion.
Yang Zelin and Bai Muchen quickly covered his mouth with their hands, but the words had already been spoken and the situation became awkward.
