Chapter 22 Chapter Twenty Two

The people in Xiushuitun lived a hard life under the cruel oppression of the Japanese devils, but everyone still cared about the Chinese New Year.The sky belongs to China, and the earth belongs to China. How can the Chinese not celebrate the Chinese New Year handed down by their ancestors!Have a great New Year and never forget that you are a real Chinese.The rich get rich, and the poor get poor. The old rules of the "New Year's Pass" left by the ancestors must be passed.Therefore, the end of the new year is approaching, and every household, men, women and children in Xiushuitun are preparing for the new year.

Tianhao's family is also busy, Tianxing pulls a bellows to light a fire, Tianhao and Tianyue make sticky bean buns, and Huzi cleans the yard.At this time, Hezi came. She said that Chinese people are preparing for the New Year, and her family is also preparing for it. They all say that Chinese tofu is delicious, but she doesn't know how to make it. She wants to ask Tianhao to help make tofu.Tianhao felt that he should help in such a matter, so he agreed: "Is the soy milk ready?" Hezi said, "It's ready." Tianhao asked again: "Do you have brine in your house?" Shake your head.Tianhao said: "You go back first, I'll borrow some brine, and I'll go right away."

When Kazuko returned home and went to the kitchen, Akita Murakami looked at the big iron pot where the soy milk was boiled. The soy milk was already boiling.Tianhao walked in, holding a small black earthen jar in his hand.Akita Murakami smiled kindly: "You're here? Thank you." Tianhao put the small crock on the windowsill, asked him to turn off the fire in the stove, and started scooping soybean milk into the jar. Tianhao filled the tank with milky soy milk, and placed a wooden board and a square wooden frame for making tofu on the stove.She picked up the jar of brine and stirred it with a spoon.At this time, Taro Akita came in and asked, "What are you doing here?" "Tofu, Chinese tofu, I was invited by your mother." She said as she added brine to the soybean milk.Akita Taro asked: "What is this?" , broke.Akita Murakami pushed his son away: "How can you be so rude to the invited guests?" Akita Taro said: "Chinese people commit suicide and drink brine! It's poisonous!" Akita Murakami and Kazuko looked at the sky in surprise.The weather was so urgent that he yelled at Akita Taro: "You don't even know how to make tofu with brine, what a waste of work!"

At this time, the soy milk in the tank has become brains.Tianhao picked up the water ladle, scooped some out of the tank, and took another bite.She looked at Akita Murakami and Kazuko, and then fixed her eyes on Akita Taro: "My life is more precious than your life, I'm not afraid of being poisoned!" As she said, Tianhao scooped out the tofu brain with a ladle and put it into a square wooden frame Pour it down, and then throw the ladle: "Fill it up, cover it with a cloth bag, and spread wooden strips on it, and find something heavy to press on it!" After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Akita Taro: "You Japanese You have a bad conscience!" She strode out of the room with her chest out.

Akita Murakami and Kazuko chased out of the house, Akita Murakami greeted Tianhao: "Please wait a moment." Tianhao stopped and turned around.Akita Murakami was full of apologies: "I'm really sorry, my Taro... he was not like this. He came back from the army and fought, and he seemed to be a different person with a bad temper..." He took out money from his pocket and said, "I'll give you the brine and the pot. Compensation..." Akita Murakami handed the money to Tianhao.Kazuko handed over a package: "This is the cold cake I made. It's delicious. We Japanese make it during the Chinese New Year. You can take it home and try it." Tianhao took the cold cake and walked out of the yard.

Tianhao came to Liu Ersao's house, and Liu Ersao was feeding the pigs. "Second sister-in-law, I accidentally spilled that pot of brine. This is your money." She handed the money to Liu second sister-in-law, then tore open the package of cold cakes Hezi gave her, and sprinkled them into the pigsty: "Let it open." Let’s have some meat, try Japanese cold cakes.” The pigs in the pen devoured the cold cakes, and Tian Hao went home with a smile. At dinner, Akita Murakami and his son knelt and sat at the small dining table, where food and wine were placed. Akita Taro filled his father with a cup of wine, filled it himself and said, "Father, I think you are too cowardly, and you are too kind to the Chinese!" Akita Murakami thought for a while: "How should I say this? I Compared with others, they are indeed more friendly to the Chinese. I know that China is a big place with a lot of people, and we live surrounded by them. In twenty years, the empire will immigrate five million people to China, which is quite a lot. In China, there are now 60 million Chinese in Manchuria alone, and we are still a minority. Now, each of our pioneering regiments has only hundreds of thousands of immigrants. We moved here with the strength of the Kwantung Army, and we have land. But what about ordinary life? We have to live our daily lives by ourselves, can we do without good relations with the Chinese? If we don’t have good relations with the Chinese, we will cause a lot of trouble.” Taro Akita seemed indifferent.Akita Murakami continued, "My friendliness with the Chinese does not mean that I think highly of them. We are Japanese and a Yamato nation! They don't have a holy emperor, so they don't know how to change their lives." Akita Taro picked up The wine cup, drank it dry in one gulp.Akita Murakami also did it.Hezi brought a bowl of tofu and put it on the table: "This tofu is really good, eat it quickly."

Akita Murakami wanted to show a movie to the Chinese in Xiushuitun during the Spring Festival. He told this to Honda Yuichi, the head of the development team: "Chinese people attach great importance to the Spring Festival and like to sing big plays. I invite them to watch movies. It’s the same as inviting them to watch a big show. For Chinese people, movies are also very new.” Honda Yuichi asked: “What do you want to do?” Akita Murakami said: “Our relationship with the Chinese has always been tense, and I want to take this opportunity to Relax the relationship." Honda Yuyi smiled and said: "Akita-kun, don't you think your thoughts are too naive?" Akita Murakami said: "Maybe naive, but there is a Chinese saying: don't hit people with smiling faces. Since we want to be forever If you live here, you will inevitably have to deal with the Chinese, why can't you be more friendly?" Honda Yuichi didn't comment.Akita Murakami continued, "I watched a movie in the city, which talked about the victory of the Imperial Army on various battlefields. I was so excited to see it. I think this kind of movie will be shown, so that the Chinese can see our big Japan. The Bushido spirit of the imperial army is also a deterrent to the Chinese." Honda Yuichi thought for a while: "Okay." After the matter was settled, Akita Murakami began to prepare.

Akita Murakami went to Chen Erye's house and said: "Village Chief, Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I would like to invite the folks in Xiushuitun to watch a movie. Tomorrow night, I would like to invite you to come to my courtyard." Chen Erye said: "If It's nothing important, I will definitely go." Akita Murakami said: "Please also say hello to the folks." Second Master Chen said again: "Middle! Middle!" As soon as Akita Murakami left the living room, Mr. Chen changed immediately Face: "Bah! I'll watch your shitty movie!" Akita Murakami walked on the village street, greeting everyone and inviting them to watch a movie at his house, and everyone agreed with a smile.

Akita Murakami went to Tianhao's house on purpose. He walked into the yard, just as Huzi came out of the house with a basin of dirty water.He saw Akita Murakami and deliberately poured dirty water on him.Akita Murakami hurriedly hid, but dirty water still splashed on him.He was a little annoyed, but restrained.Huzi asked: "What are you doing at our house?" Akita Murakami smiled: "I want to invite you to my house to watch a movie." Tianhao said: "Don't you see that we are busy." Akita Murakami said: "Tomorrow night Huzi said: "That's no time!" Akita Murakami walked away in embarrassment.

In the evening of the next day, a screen was set up in the yard of Akita Murakami's house.There are rows of tables and stools in front of the screen, and melon seeds, fruits, and snacks are placed on the tables.Everything that should be prepared is ready, just waiting for the moviegoers to come.It was getting darker and darker, and no one from the movies came. It was getting darker, and the yard was still deserted, only a lonely screen and rows of empty tables and stools. Akita Murakami stood at the gate of the yard, looking out.The dark night enveloped the earth, quietly.Kazuko walked to her husband again: "No one will come, let's clean up." Akita Murakami walked up to the projectionist helplessly, sighed and said, "Thank you." A series of footsteps, Akita Murakami stopped the projectionist: "Wait, someone is coming!" Huzi strode into the yard.Akita Murakami went up to greet him excitedly: "You're here?!" Huzi said, "I haven't seen a movie yet when I'm so old, open your eyes today!" The projectionist asked Akita Murakami: "Just him, shall we show it? "Akita Murakami said: "Let it go! Let it go!"

Images of Japanese soldiers marching, fighting, and cheering for victory were shown on the screen.The voice-over on the screen: "This is a arduous holy war. My heroic Imperial Japanese Army is invincible and invincible..." Huzi stared at the screen angrily.Akita Murakami and Kazuko who was beside him watched very attentively, their faces full of excitement.Akita Taro stood leaning against the door, he looked at the screen with a complicated expression, maybe he thought of his own experience. Huzi suddenly got up and walked to the front row, swept the melon seeds, fruits, and snacks on the table with his arms, and sat down on the table.His gigantic shadow appeared on the screen.Akita Murakami rushed over and said with a smile on his face, "Mr. Huzi, this is not suitable. You should sit in the back and watch it." "You invited me to watch the movie. I can watch it as much as I like!" Huzi pointed at the screen Looking at his own shadow, he smiled: "This is me! Ha... I saw me!" Akita Murakami finally got angry: "You are making trouble for no reason!" Huzi was also angry: "I don't like to see you Japanese murder and set fire!" Akita Taro ran over and shouted: "Bastard!" Kazuko hugged his son and shouted: "Taro ..." Huzi pointed at Akita Taro: "Look at your bad looks, why don't you go to the movies? You should go to the movies!" Akita Taro was panting heavily.Huzi pulled off the screen and strode home. The three sisters lost sight of Hu Zi, and were running around in a hurry, when Hu Zi hummed suddenly: "The one in the first month is the first month, the one with the red light in the first month..." Hu Zi appeared in the night.Tianhao greeted him and shouted: "Where did you die!" "Oh my god! I was shocked, I thought I met Jiedao, I went to watch a movie." Huzi walked into the yard and continued humming He said: "Every family celebrates the wedding, Yier Yier..." He sang himself into the room.The three sisters looked at each other angrily and helplessly, and went back to sleep. Akita Murakami and Kazuko sat on their knees facing each other dully. Akita Taro walked back and forth around his parents, screaming: "Father, you see, this is the Chinese! They are full of hatred for our Yamato nation! You still want to get along with them Relationship? Impossible!" Kazuko said: "It's too much. We have good intentions..." Akita Taro is still shouting: "For the Chinese, we can only kill! Kill! Kill!" Akita Murakami glared at his son: "You kill Is it over?" Akita Taro said: "Then you shouldn't lose the dignity of the Yamato nation!" Akita Murakami also shouted: "Enough! Don't teach your father a lesson!" Akita Murakami was depressed about the movie show, so he went to the development team to talk to Honda Yuichi to relieve his boredom.The two of them sat by the iron stove, warming themselves and talking.Honda Yuichi said: "I know, I went to one person, and it was still causing trouble." Akita Murakami said with a sad face: "I don't understand, I have always been so friendly to them, why do they still hate me?" Honda Yuichi He sneered: "Because you are Japanese! What would you think if the Chinese took over your hometown in Kagoshima? It's all the same. We took their land! One hectare of land is worth fifty or sixty yuan Dayang, we only pay four or five yuan, some only give one or two yuan, and you give more, but it’s only a few yuan more.” Akita Murakami said: "Why is Japan so small? Why is there no such fertile land?" Honda Yuichi said: "Yeah, it's not fair! So we have to settle in and occupy, we have to immigrate and open up! Maybe, twenty years or three years Ten years later, this place will be included in the territory of our Great Japan, and we will become the real masters of this place. This is the mission of our pioneering team! Akita-kun, your approach is not necessarily wrong, it’s better if you are softer than soft.” Akita Murakami said: "That Song Huzi is really hateful!" Honda Yuichi said thoughtfully: "Song Huzi...should send him to a good place." Chinese New Year is coming, it's time to buy some New Year's goods.Tianhao asked Huzi to go to Sanjiang Town to buy some burning paper, lanterns, incense candles, firecrackers, etc. Tianxing and Tianyue also asked Huzi to buy some small things for their own use.Huzi agreed, and happily went out to Sanjiang Town. How did he know that a group of people were already waiting for him on the way. Huzi walked happily on the road to Sanjiang Town, there were several figures shaking in the woods by the roadside, following Huzi were Akita Murakami and a few Japanese.Huzi walked forward without noticing, suddenly, five or six Japanese men jumped out of the woods and rushed towards Huzi.Huzi fought hard, but was outnumbered, and was pushed down to the ground by several people and tied up.Huzi asked: "What do you want to do?" A Japanese said: "Send you to a good place!" Several Japanese military vehicles were parked on the streets of Sanjiang Town, and the vehicles were all tied up Chinese.Many people were watching and discussing from a distance, including Zhou and Guang.He saw Huzi being escorted over with five flowers tied up.Huzi shouted desperately: "I am Huzi from Xiushuitun, whoever goes back and tells my sister that I have been arrested as a laborer!" Zhou Heguang immediately went to Xiushuitun to report the letter. Under the oil lamp, food was placed on the kang table, but no one moved.God is crying.Tianyue and Tianxing sat on the side with their heads depressed. Tianhao choked with sobs: "Blame me, I shouldn't let him go to Sanjiang Town, I'll just go..." Tianxing said: "Sister, you always love to hug you, that's bad for a little Japan!" Tianyue agreed Said: "Elder sister, second sister is right..." Tian Xing was angry and hated: "What do you call 'right', that's what it is! Without it, Little Japan, we wouldn't live in peace!" She picked up the vegetable dumpling , "You don't eat, I eat." Tianhao wiped his tears and said: "I don't know where the tiger was sent? How long can we come back? Maybe we won't see each other in this life... It's almost Chinese New Year, he doesn't even I haven't lived for a year... If something happens to him, how can I feel sorry for my dead father..." She cried bitterly again as she spoke.Tianyue kept wiping away her tears.Tianxing bit the vegetable dumpling, tears flowed from his eyes. Japanese soldiers escorted the labor team to walk in the virgin forest. There were tigers and horse platoon leaders from the Anti-Japanese League in the team.The laborers walked hard on the thick snow.From time to time, some laborers fell down and some people wanted to help them. Japanese soldiers rushed over and beat them with rifle butts.The Japanese soldiers howled: "Go! Go!" The captured people had no choice but to move on. Japanese soldiers shot at the fallen.The platoon leader horse scolded: "Another one. Damn it, you little devil!" A laborer beside him, known as "Old Donkey", was humming the tune of the folk song "Little Cabbage". At this moment, he stopped and said, "Seventeen La! It’s fine if you die, so you don’t have to suffer!” The tiger asked the horse platoon leader: "Where are we going?" The horse platoon leader looked around: "Who knows. I turned around." The old donkey laughed at the old horse: "You are still fighting the League, this is common sense I don’t know. We’re going east.” Huzi asked, “How do you know?” The old donkey said, “Boy, let me teach you a trick. Didn’t you see that I licked the birch tree with my tongue just now? The cold and sticky tongue is the north. If you find the north, you will know the east, west, and south.” He said to the horse platoon leader: “Old Matou, no wonder you always suffered defeats in the Anti-Japanese War. Just you two times... ..." The horse platoon leader said unconvinced: "What's wrong with me these two times? I killed a dozen devils and covered the retreat of the whole regiment! Your national army has two tricks, bah! Just know how to run!" The old donkey was not convinced: " Did I run away? Can I be caught by the little devil?" A Japanese soldier ran over and shot the old donkey with the butt of a gun, and shouted fiercely: "Don't talk!" The old donkey took a few steps forward: "Today Thirty, right? Damn it! It’s unlucky to be beaten by a kid on New Year’s Eve!" After breakfast, Tianhao put two lanterns, a packet of incense and a hanging whip on the cover of the cabinet and said to Tianxing and Tianyue, "It's thirty years old today, let's go to father's grave to deliver lanterns, and invite him The old man came back for the New Year. Dad’s grave is in the field of Akita’s family, so we have to say hello to his family.” Tianxing impatiently said, “Please, dad, just go and say hello to him.” “Don’t make trouble, first Stay at home, Tianyue will follow me." Tianhao and Tianyue walked out of the house, Tianxing was fascinated by the lantern, incense and whip on the cabinet cover. Tianhao and Tianyue walked into the courtyard of Akita's house, and Akita Taro came out of the house, staring at Tianhao and Tianyue gloomily.Tianhao ignored Akita Taro and shouted into the room: "Mr. Murakami!" Akita Taro said: "My dad is not at home! Tell me if you have something to do!" Tianhao had to say to him: "Today is New Year's Eve, according to our Chinese It is a custom of people to invite the dead to go home for the New Year, and we have to send lanterns to my father's grave and pick him up..." Akita Taro opened his mouth and said, "No! That's my family's land! You must not be left behind. Chinese footprints!" Tian Hao said patiently: "That was originally our family's land! At the beginning, we made an agreement with your father..." Akita Taro still stuck his neck and said: "No!" In order not to cause trouble, Tianhao and Tianyue had no choice but to go home temporarily and talk to his father again at noon.Tianhao found that the lantern, incense and the hanging whip on the cover of the cabinet were gone, and Tianxing was also gone. She knew that Tianxing must have gone to her father's grave alone. She was afraid that Tianxing would cause trouble, so she hurriedly went to find Tianxing. On the desolate land, there is a lonely grave with luxuriant withered grass, and a few small trees beside the grave.Tianxing came to his father's grave, arranged the sacrifices, hung two red lanterns and firecrackers on the tree, knelt down again, and lit the incense. "Father, it's Chinese New Year, let's go home with my daughter to celebrate the New Year..." Suddenly, she felt someone behind her, and when she turned her head, it was Akita Taro standing viciously behind her.Akita Taro said: "You! Get out of here! Leave now!" Tianxing stood up and glared at Akita Taro.Akita Taro pointed at the sacrificial offerings, lanterns and firecrackers and shouted: "Take them all away!" Tianxing did not back down: "I won't take them! Today I will see what you can do to me!" Akita Taro howled: " Go away!" Tian Xingyili retorted: "Little devil, you should be the one to go away! Today I am here to burn incense and kowtow to my father, light lanterns and set off firecrackers, and take my father home to celebrate the New Year! Let me tell you, China If people don’t even care about their ancestors during Chinese New Year, they are not worthy to be their children and grandchildren!” Akita Taro pressed on step by step: "You have to know that I came back from the battlefield and crawled out of the dead. Don't annoy me!" Tianxing was even more tit-for-tat: "Don't forget, this It’s my family’s land! You took away our land and didn’t let us pay homage to our ancestors on this land. You don’t let us live. Tell you, if you dare to stop me, I can do anything! " Akita Taro threatened bullishly: "Don't look at me with only one arm left, I will beat you down and beg me for mercy!" Tianxing sneered: "I won't bully you, you have one arm, I will also beat you with the other arm. You!" As he said, he tucked his left arm into the lapel of his coat. Akita Taro didn't expect a girl to be so tough, so he was panting with anger.Tianxing shouted: "Come on! If I don't beat you to the ground, I will leave immediately, and I am not my father's daughter!" Akita Taro rushed to Tianxing with a "ah".Tianhao and Tianyue saw Tianxing and Akita Taro fighting in the cemetery from a distance.Come over in a hurry. At this time, Tianxing had already fallen to Akita Taro and rode on him, hitting him hard with one fist.Tianhao and Tianyue ran over and picked up Tianxing.Akita Taro got up angrily, his face and the corners of his mouth were bleeding, like a defeated rooster, he was trembling with anger, turned around and ran away.Tianhao said: "You are really good!" Tianyue said: "It's causing trouble again!" Tianxing didn't care what the sisters said, just said: "Don't say it's useless, please go home." He knelt down in front of the grave. Akita Taro walked forward, and the sound of "cracking" firecrackers suddenly sounded behind him.He looked back and saw that the firecrackers were ringing in the cemetery in the distance, and his face was contorted with anger. When the three sisters returned home, they opened the door and saw that the iron pot in the kitchen had been smashed.Tian Xing said angrily: "That bastard must have done it! He never beat me, and he is so fucking useless for doing such sneaky things! I'll go find him!" Tian Hao hugged Tian Xing: "You save me Don't worry!" Tianyue said, "I'll go to his house!" Tianyue bowed her head and stood in front of Qiu Tiancunshang and said: "...my second sister has a bad temper, we know we are wrong..." Hezi wiped his son's injured face: "A girl's family, why are you so hard-handed? He is crippled again. " Akita Murakami said calmly: "If you come to apologize, I will forgive you." Tianyue calmed down: "He smashed our family's rice cooker, which is considered to be a solution to the grudge. I hope you can make our family calm in the future. live a life..." At this time, Tianxing rushed in: "My sister's apology is invalid! I beat him, and I also beat him with one arm." She asked Akita Taro, "Do you think so? Let's fight again!" Tianyue tugged at Tianxing's lapel: "Second sister..." Tianxing knocked off Tianyue's hand, and then said to Akita Murakami: "People have to be reasonable, you know the cause and effect of things, you should tell me Our family apologizes! If I don't apologize, I can do anything!" After speaking, he grabbed Tianyue's arm and left. Tianxing and Tianyue walked home one after the other.Tianxing saw a Xuewozi not far away, so she greeted Tianyue behind her: "Third brother, second sister has a private message with you, go over there and talk, and keep your back quiet." She pointed at Xuewozi, walked over.As soon as Tianyue came over, Tianxing suddenly grabbed Tianyue, threw her into the snow nest, and hit her with his fists.Tianyue yelled: "Second Sister, why are you beating someone..." Tianxing said: "I'll just hit you! You bony bastard! You should have let his family pay for it, and you didn't fart a single fart. His family apologized, I was so mad!" "I'm afraid that something will happen to our family..." Tian Xing said, "You are afraid that we won't lose face to our family!" After Tianxing and Tianyue left, Akita Murakami scolded his son, while Kazuko knelt beside him.Akita Murakami said: "You are so serious! If they are going to the cemetery, you can let them go. This is what I have agreed with their family in the past, and I have promised. You have fought with a woman, and you have never beaten anyone before. It’s a shame! If you lose, you lose, and you go to smash other people’s rice cookers! Are you... are you still a big man?" Akita Taro was still angry: "I, I can’t wait to kill them!" Akita Murakami said: "You live an honest life!" At this moment, Hezi suddenly pointed out the window.Akita Murakami looked out the window, and Tianhao walked into the yard with the broken pot on his head. Akita Murakami and Kazuko walked out of the house, greeted Tianhao, and Tianhao put the broken pot on the ground: "Do you know the rules of the Chinese? Digging ancestral graves and smashing rice pots are just to prevent people from living, and they are forcing us to work hard with you." .If we don't move at all, we will be inferior to pigs and dogs, and the folks in the village will look down on us from now on. So, I came here today with the pot on my shoulders, and I don't want to go back with the pot on my back. If you don't apologize, I will Die here with you! I also want to tell you that you have only one son in your family now, and we have three sisters in our family, and the three of us can exchange your son's life, do you think it will work?" "Don't be like this, don't be like this, there is something to discuss." Hezi bowed: "Don't be angry, I apologize for my son." Akita Murakami hurriedly continued: "Yes, we apologize, and I have to go to your house to apologize..." Not long after Tianhao came home, Akita Murakami really had a new pot, and Hezi walked into the yard, and Tianhao, Tianxing, and Tianyue came out of the house.Akita Murakami put down the pot and bowed with Kazuko.Akita Murakami said: "I'm really sorry, please forgive..." Seeing this situation, the Tianhao sisters treated each other with courtesy and forgave them. On the altar, there was a portrait of Song Chengzu, surrounded by incense.The father came back, and the three sisters knelt in front of the father's portrait and kowtowed three times.Tianhao said: "Father, it's Chinese New Year, and we are reunited again, but Huzi is not here... I didn't take good care of him, I'm sorry, Dad..." Tianhao cried.Tianxing said: "Father, don't blame my sister, she is a Japanese devil..." Tianyue said: "Father, please bless Huzi, please keep our family safe..." Tianhao said: "Father, don't worry, No matter how hard it is, we must live on, and I will take care of my two younger sisters..." The three sisters hugged each other.The portrait of Song Seungjo looked at the three sisters with a smile. As midnight approached, Abbot Yuci of Jingkong Temple went to the bell tower and rang the traditional Chinese New Year's bell.As the bell rang far and wide, firecrackers sounded from far and near.After Tianhao's family had eaten dumplings, they let go of the "Flash Door Cannon" and opened the courtyard door, ready to welcome the neighbors who came to pay New Year's greetings. At dawn, Tianxing changed into new clothes and was playing "er kicker" in the yard.Zhou Heguang and Mrs. Zhou walked over with beaming faces.Tian Xing saw such an honorable and rare visitor on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and hurriedly ran back to the house to report the news in surprise. In the house, Tianhao and Tianyue also changed into new clothes.Tianhao tidied Tianyue's clothes, and Tianyue said happily: "Sister, your hands are so skillful, this dress fits so well!" Tianxing rushed into the room like a gust of wind: "Hey, shopkeeper Xiao Zhou is here! Tianyue gave Tianxing a white look: "Go! Come to lie to me again!" Tianxing said solemnly: "Really, I won't lie to you!" Tianhao said: "Tianxing, you won't change to a new trick?" The three sisters were talking when Zhou Heguang and Mrs. Zhou walked into the room.The old lady Zhou asked: "What new trick?" Tianhao and Tianyue couldn't think that Tianxing was telling the truth this time, so they couldn't help being stunned.Tian Hao hurriedly went up to greet you with a smile all over his face: "Ma'am, why are you here?" Mrs. Zhou smiled kindly: "It's Chinese New Year, let's come and see you." " Tianyue stepped forward and bowed: "Auntie, Happy New Year." "Okay, okay. Yue'er, I should also wish your brother a New Year!" Tianyue glanced at Zhou Heguang and said, "Mr. Zhou Happy New Year." walked away shyly.Mrs. Zhou smiled happily. Tianxing said to Tianyue: "I didn't lie to you, did I? Hurry up and make tea!" Tianyue went to make tea with a smile, and she was naturally overjoyed.The old lady Zhou looked around: "Look at this house, it's so tidy, it doesn't look like a child without a father and a mother." Then she said to Tianhao, "It's not easy for you to provoke this family!" Zhou Heguang deliberately smiled to tease Zhou Heguang, Xiao Zhou's shopkeeper: "Why don't you say anything?" You have to live too." Tianyue brought a tea tray with tea bowls and teapots on it.She put the tea tray between Zhou Heguang and Mrs. Zhou, picked up the teapot and poured tea.The old lady Zhou looked at Tianyue: "The longer the moon is, the more juicy it is." Tianyue was embarrassed, and she bowed her head and hid aside after pouring the tea.Mrs. Zhou took out four red envelopes from her bosom: "Auntie will give you lucky money." Tianhao's heart warmed up: "Auntie..." Parents are gone, and the elders will give you lucky money during the Chinese New Year, which moved her very much.The old lady Zhou said: "Take it! One for each person——Huzi's share, keep it for him." The old lady Zhou stuffed the red envelope into Tianhao.According to the old rules, New Year's money cannot be turned down, and Tianhao happily accepted the money: "Auntie, look, we haven't kowtowed to you yet." Mrs. Zhou smiled happily: "This kowtow, it's also free. Let's go." Zhou Heguang said to his sisters: "Don't worry, I'm just looking for where the tiger went." A large yard surrounded by high walls.Electric grids are stretched on the courtyard wall, and watchtowers are poked at the four corners of the courtyard wall, guarded by Japanese soldiers with guns.This is a labor camp set up by the Japanese in the mountains on the Sino-Soviet border, where the tiger sons were sent.The courtyard is surrounded by large work sheds where the laborers live, and the laborers stand in rows in the courtyard.Mikichi Takano, the leader of the Japanese squadron, stood in front of the team. He closed the roster and asked loudly, "Have you remembered your number?" No one answered.Mikichi Takano yelled: "Do you remember?" Few people answered: "I remember." Mikichi Takano angrily walked to the front row, picked out a person and slapped him repeatedly.He shouted again: "Do you remember?" The laborers shouted: "Remember!" Takano Mikichi howled: "You not only have to remember your own number, but also remember, I, Takano Mikichi! I am Your officers, you must obey me—obey unconditionally! You must also remember that you are no longer human when you get here, don’t think about anything, don’t ask about anything, only work! Work!” Dozens of laborers live in a work shed, which is very crowded and oppressive.The old donkey said: "We are the eighth brigade, and I have the final say on this brigade. I can't do anything if the Japanese ask me to do it."

Hu Zi spat in a "bah".The old donkey asked the tiger: "Little brother, what do you mean? Don't you accept it? Well, let's wait and see, there will be a day when you will be ordered to obey." He glanced at everyone and lowered his voice, "I have to remind everyone , that Japanese squadron leader, Takano Mikichi, everyone has to be careful, this kid is not a thing..."
