Chapter 32: On the Way

  As the little boy spoke, all three of them fell into deep thought, each considering the future of their country and their own futures. Qin Si Jiao didn't even notice when the leaves in her hand occasionally fluttered to the ground.

  The rain suddenly realized that the death of his parents was not just a problem with the invasion of devils, but also related to the decline of the country. It turned out that every ordinary person is closely related to their own country, and when the country is lost, the family is also destroyed. At this moment, Yu Nong felt deeply shocked. It turns out that the country is home, although many people are composed of it, but every individual is flesh and blood connected with their own country. If you are numb and ruthless, trampling on it at will, then you can soon taste the bitter fruit.

  At this moment, it was also the beginning of Yu's journey towards maturity. She had her own ideals besides looking up to her brother, which was to create the best weapons to defeat the devils and make their country strong so that it would no longer be bullied, and countless sisters would not lose their parents. Tears blurred her eyes, but this time Yan Jufan did not guess her thoughts. He had not discovered that the weak little girl he held tightly in his arms had become strong. She had begun to grow stronger, although it was just a little bit, but she believed that she could eventually fulfill her wishes: make the country strong and prosperous, and every family happy. These seeds were sprouting inside the little girl, and one day they would bloom into brilliant flowers. She sincerely prayed in her heart.

  Qin Si Jiao's heart was also worried about the fate of the country, after all she was a young lady from a wealthy family. Precisely because of this, she had vaguely known since very early on that her family's business had been severely impacted by the Japanese, and in the end they were even forced to sell their low-quality but high-priced Oriental goods to the Japanese.

  Although her mother always wanted to get close to the Japanese, trying to use this to attack her aunt, but even at her young age she knew that the Japanese devils were absolutely not trustworthy. Alas, her mother was determined to overthrow her aunt, and she didn't agree with it. The little girl stuck in between couldn't help but follow her aunt, hoping that her mother would give up on that frightening idea because of this.

  At a young age, she had suffered many grievances, but this matter could not be revealed to outsiders. Her spoiled behavior was just a way to cover up and protect herself. But this bad boy never put himself in her shoes, how despicable! Qin Si Jiao gazed at the two people in front of her with a vinegar-filled gaze, although she had long been familiar with them, but a sense of regret grew in her heart. She wished she could also be in the arms of that bad boy, but her pride always stopped her. Although this feeling was painful, very painful. She stretched out her hand and grasped the bad boy's arm, holding on tightly, as if afraid he would forget about her. The tears in her eyes finally flowed out, making Yan Ju Fan once again realize the truth that women are made of water.

  Yan Ju Fan looked at the two little girls in front of him, both his own sisters. One was gentle and obedient, while the other was arrogant and spoiled, each with their own charm. He let out a long sigh and hugged them both, comforting them: "Don't be afraid, everything will be fine with Brother Ju Fan here. We'll work together to drive those devils away. Yunong and Sijiao must work hard, okay? Brother Ju Fan will always be with you."

  The fiery sunset seemed to be telling a brief joy, and the three people faded away with the afterglow, disappearing under the mountain. The village was already lighting up lanterns.

  Yan Xi Wu and Qin Wan Jun were discussing the recent progress of their work. Although the Alliance's work was not long, the quality of its cadres was not high, but it had indeed started to enter the vision of the mountain people. With the arrival of young people and some students who came to join the anti-Japanese war, the Alliance was bursting with enthusiasm. The slogan "Resist Japan, Save the Nation, Industry Revitalizes the Nation" was deeply rooted in people's hearts. Everyone spontaneously participated in the construction of the steel industry. Soon, this simple steel plant was established, and people used various equipment to piece together a process, quickly trying to produce a furnace of steel. The members of the Alliance played a leading role in this process. They had made building a new country their life's work and were working hard for it.

  Many workers were surprised by the vitality shown by this new organization, which initially consisted of mountain people and later became more vibrant with the addition of technical workers from outside and some drop-out students. As the anti-Japanese movement deepened in people's hearts and as people understood what the Japanese invaders had done, a mobilization campaign was unfolding within the people. Qin Wanjun skillfully guided the emerging sprouts, allowing the Alliance to become the banner of resistance against Japan in Lishi Village. All this happened imperceptibly, gradually moving from behind the scenes to the forefront.

  Yan Xi Wu carefully took out a small jar from the house, and Qin Wan Jun couldn't help but wonder what kind of treasure it was. The beautiful woman's heart was filled with anticipation, but the mystery was soon revealed. A purple sand pot was placed on the fiery charcoal fire, and mountain spring water was poured in. To her surprise, the precious jar contained tea leaves. Qin Wan Jun couldn't help but secretly laugh at him, thinking that no matter how good the tea was, it couldn't compare to the "Da Hong Pao" she had once tasted, which was said to be more valuable than gold.

  But the doubt was finally lifted when the fragrance wafted, and it turned out to be a scent she had never smelled before. Qin Wanjun took a deep breath and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to hide such good stuff, how come you're willing to bring it out today?" She then turned around and left Yan Xiuyu with a charming smile.

  Yan Xi Wu chuckled and said, "Hehe, this is a good treasure. I found it on a tree in the mountains about a year ago. At first, I was just curious, but later I discovered that it's even more fragrant than tea leaves. I had someone investigate, but still couldn't find out its name. Hehe, seeing how hard you've been working lately, I specially brewed a cup of good tea to help you relax. Today, I brought this out for the young lady from the wealthy family to try. Do you recognize what it is?"

  Qin Wanjun stretched out her hand to take the teacup handed over by her husband, took a light breath, and a refreshing fragrance directly entered her heart through her nostrils. It was too fragrant, Qin Wanjun slowly looked at the tea color, the emerald green tea soup, the green leaves, it was really beautiful, but she didn't recognize it after all.

  "Hehe, I've been busy setting up the Alliance's organization and didn't know how hard it was. You think a cup of tea can get rid of me? Hehe, at least show some sincerity." Qin Wanjun said with a smile.

  "Who says a wife is only worth a cup of tea? At least you need to match it with a teapot or something." Yan Xiawu said with a smile.

  "Hmm, I knew you weren't up to any good. What do you want me to do now?" Qin Wanjun naturally understood her husband's thoughts and knew he must have something on his mind since he deliberately brought up the tea."
