"Grandpa Sun, does that mean the Japanese ninjas are like the suicide squads trained by the ancients?"
Lin Jingyu pondered, "If that's really the case, those Japanese ninjas are truly terrifying!"
"They can indeed be regarded as suicide soldiers."
Grandpa Sun nodded. "Ninja missions are mainly espionage missions such as reconnaissance, spying, assassination, disruption, and sabotage."
However, what makes ninjas different is that, in addition to receiving basic spy training in terms of their essential skills, they also receive training in 'ninjutsu'.
The missions are more complex and less straightforward, and are at a higher level than those of ordinary spies.
This is what is known as a 'ninja'.
Simply put, ninjas are more powerful and capable than ordinary spies.
Just like real martial artists in our country, no matter how skilled an ordinary person is, a martial artist can easily defeat them.
"I see."
Lin Jingyu nodded and then asked, "Grandpa Sun, do you think Tian Danxiong might also be a ninja?"
He can make poisons, so he must be no ordinary ninja.
Although he looks sickly, he's actually quite skilled in martial arts.
"It may be, or it may not be."
Grandpa Sun dared not make a judgment. "This time he suffered heavy losses, and he himself had both legs broken. In his situation, he either has to retreat directly from Chunnan County, or his superiors will send a powerful person to help him."
If he absolutely has to complete this mission, there's a high chance that ninjas will appear.
You'd better tell your grandfather beforehand that if the Japanese ninjas show up, Chunnan County will probably have to invite some people over too.
"Should we invite some people over?"
Lin Jingyu paused for a moment, then asked curiously, "Grandpa Sun, who are you inviting?"
Also, would the Japanese really send a ninja to protect him?
"Nobody knows for sure, but I think there's an 80% chance."
Grandpa Sun picked up his bowl and chopsticks and continued eating. "But don't worry, the Japanese have some formidable figures, and so do we in our country."
"You little brat, you don't think any of us have ever dealt with those Japanese ninjas, do you?"
"I really don't know about that."
"You're still young, so it's not surprising that you don't know. You could say that during the period of the underground warfare, the reason why our party's underground organization was exposed most of the time was thanks to these little Japanese ninjas."
"I see."
"Some talented people were suddenly assassinated, also by the hands of these Japanese ninjas."
...
Lin Jingyu left the cowshed, feeling much heavier than before.
The people of Chunnan County had hoped that this cleanup of the Japanese troops would bring them some peace and stability.
It seems that until the Japanese devils complete their mission, we can forget about having a peaceful life.
It seems I'll have to make another trip to the county town in a few days to talk to my grandfather about this in person.
She kept it to herself and never mentioned it to anyone.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Jingyu has been busy with her private plot of land these past few days.
Weeding and fertilizing seem like simple tasks, but they are actually quite tiring to do.
Fortunately, Liu Xiuying was called in to help.
The three of them chatted and gossiped while they worked.
“Jingyu, Shiyu, Qingqing came back a few days ago when you weren’t home.”
Liu Xiuying spoke of those who had recently married away from home, saying, "Qingqing was a little disappointed when she came back and didn't see you. She doesn't know when she'll see you again."
"Why do you say that?"
Peng Shiyu looked puzzled. "She always has to go back to her parents' home. The Mid-Autumn Festival is in two months. Does she not want to go back to her parents' home for the festival?"
"Maybe her in-laws won't want her to come back then."
Liu Xiuying said with a smile, "She came back a few days ago and asked her husband to escort her over. She has already said that she probably won't come over this year. At most, she'll have her husband come over to give her gifts during holidays."
Lin Jingyu was astonished. "Are you saying Qingqing is pregnant?"
"yes."
Liu Xiuying nodded with a smile, "She's only two months pregnant. She came back to share the good news. Her husband seems to treat her very well. He's always been careful to protect her, afraid that something might happen to her."
"I never imagined she was pregnant."
Peng Shiyu couldn't help but sigh, "It seems she married the right person. Her husband is willing to protect her, so her future life will be easier."
"Qingqing told me that her man is indeed very good to her."
Liu Xiuying began to speak, “Her sister-in-law is not an easy person to get along with. I heard that she is particularly envious of the dowry she brought and insisted that her parents buy her a sewing machine as well.”
In reality, her family didn't have the money to buy her a dowry. Unable to get her parents' approval, she constantly stirred up trouble, making everyone in the family dislike Qingqing.
"No way, how could Qingqing's sister-in-law be this kind of person?"
Peng Shiyu was a little incredulous. "Her parents didn't have money to buy her a dowry, so they took Qingqing with them. It's really unreasonable."
"Jealousy."
Liu Xiuying curled her lips and said, "Seeing that Sister Qingqing can mend and make clothes and earn money without having to work in the fields, it's no wonder I'm jealous."
You have no idea that she even made a fuss about Qingqing teaching her how to make clothes, saying that once she learns how to make clothes, Qingqing won't have to do these things anymore, and she can just take care of them.
That's utterly ridiculous.
Peng Shiyu stared in disbelief and asked, "She doesn't mean she's trying to take over Qingqing's sewing machine, does she?"
Liu Xiuying nodded. "Judging from what Sister Qingqing said, it seems that she really has this idea."
