Chapter 9 Chapter nine

Miss Bian Jixiang was nine and a half years old during the Revolution of 1911. Her memory should be quite reliable, and it will undoubtedly withstand repeated verification and chewing in the future. Several years later, the eldest lady said at a banquet attended by the Japanese consul that she remembered the first time she thought about linking her father with a great man, it was on the road leading to Peach Blossom Mountain from the cart. The eldest lady wore a silver fox coat on her shoulders, and with a charming smile, she described the revolutionary scene to the Japanese consul Mr. Yamamoto and many guests, saying how indomitable her father was in such a difficult time, how Yearning for revolution, no one can suppress him.

Therefore, the eldest lady asserted that this is the bearing of a great man. He further asserted that there are only three great men alive today: one is Commander-in-Chief Chiang in the Southern Army, the other is General Zhang in Beijing, and the third is his own father, Yifu Bian. "Here, I want to reveal a little secret to you." The eldest lady showed off to Consul Yamamoto and the guests in the living room: "Father chose "Manjianghong" as the military song of the allied forces to seek bandits because of the feeling that day. " The young lady's memories are tender and affectionate: "I remember it clearly. It was a very dangerous day. My father put his hands on his hips and sang Yue Wumu's "Man Jianghong" all the way. He only led us to Kouzi Village, and we met The plain-clothes soldier Yong sent by Qian Guandai of the patrol battalion. He knew that his father was a resolute revolutionary party when he heard "Man Jianghong", so he used "Missy" to make a gun with his slender white hands, and gestured in front of everyone: " He pointed his father's waist with a five-shot musket and asked, "What are you singing?" The father said, "I can sing as I like." He asked his father to go with them, but his father didn't leave, and immediately fought with Bingyong. At this moment, Aunt Xia from Peach Blossom Mountain arrived in time and saved my father and us."

The eldest lady breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had just returned from danger: "...In this way, in the 10th year of the Republic of China, when the Allied Forces Against Thieves were established, and the army song was to be set, my father said, let's use Yue Wumu's "Manjianghong"! I am Those who sang "Manjianghong" to participate in the 1911 Uprising will have to sing it in the future to benefit the people of several provinces and the Republic of China..." In all the narratives, the eldest lady described herself as her father's natural ally, and it seemed that she was the first to discover his father's greatness.

This made Wang Sanshun very unconvinced: How could Missy be Yifu Bian's ally?On the contrary, the eldest lady is her father's enemy! So, Wang San took the opportunity to talk about how the eldest lady was Mrs. Li's little party, how she reported Yifu Bian's revolutionary activities to Mrs. Li, and how she cried and made noises on the road to Peach Blossom Mountain to drag down the revolution. As for the fact that she had reported to the civilian soldier bravely, she told it after a certain drunkenness, which made the eldest lady angry with Wang Sanshun for most of the winter.

In Wang Sanshun's honest memory, the eldest lady in the autumn of 1911 was really bad, and would often betray the revolution and her revolutionary father in order to get a few copper coins from Mrs. Li.The fact that Wang Sanshun personally caught him no less than ten times. Before the incident, when Aunt Xia came to Bian's house to talk about the revolution with Yifu Bian, it was the eldest lady who was lying outside the window and eavesdropping, after listening to the secret she told Mrs. Li. However, Wang Sanshun never imagined that the eldest lady would also inform the casual soldiers in Kouzi Village at the foot of Peach Blossom Mountain... She arrived at Kouzi Village in the evening, and further on, it was the deep mountains and old forests of Peach Blossom Mountain, and carts could not enter the mountain. Bian Yifu asked the coachman to drive the cart back to Taohuaji.

Seeing this, the eldest lady cried "Wow", and kept saying that she wanted to find grandma. When the coachman pulled his horse and turned around, the eldest lady climbed into the car again. The coachman was very embarrassed, and said to Yifu Bian: "The old lady let go of her words. If you want to go back, the master and the two ladies will go back together. It is not allowed to bring the lady back..." The eldest lady hugged Yifu Bian's leg and asked Yifu Bian to go back.Yifu Bian said: "Ji Xiang, we're not going back, let's go and play with Aunt Xia, it's fun in the mountains!"

The eldest lady twisted her head, and said trickily: "I won't play anything except the bandit's head!" Yifu Bian said, "Okay, okay, I'll let you play Bandit's Head..." Seeing that her father readily agreed, the eldest daughter became more and more aggressive, and she didn't even want to play with the robber's head. She called out her name and wanted to play with Aunt Xia's head. The female robber hooked up. Yifu Bian was so angry that he slapped the young lady severely, and asked Wang Sanshun to carry the young lady to an unattended broken tea shed at the entrance of the village to wait, and then went to the village to find someone to lead the way into the mountain.

Yifu Bian left, and Wang Sanshun took the eldest lady with one hand and the second lady with the other, and sat on the stone table of the tea shed, taking care of the two ladies. However, after only sitting for a while, I couldn't sit still. The eldest lady cried fiercely, and led the second lady to join in the crying. Wang San was upset by the way, so he coaxed him with nice words, or even crawled on the ground, letting the eldest lady and the second lady ride a big horse to play. doesn't work. Wang Sanshun broke out in a sweat, thinking that the two young ladies love candy balls, so he decided to buy two strings of candy balls to bribe the young ladies.

It was when Wang Sanshun went out to buy sugar balls that the two plainclothes soldiers who had been following him all the way arrived bravely.One of the dwarfs asked the young lady, "Why are you crying?" The eldest lady wiped the tears from her face and said: "We want to go home." Ask the dwarf if he can take them home? The dwarf agreed again and again, and then asked the eldest lady why she came here?The eldest lady said that she followed her grandma's wishes and pretended to go to the mountain with her rebellious father. She wanted to impress her father here and go back with her father.Unexpectedly, her father was determined to commit treason and never returned, so she was afraid.The dwarf figured out the details and had his own idea. He patted the eldest lady on the head and said, "Little sister, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we will not only take you back, but also your father. Your father has to go to the city, not to the mountains... "

As a result, Wang Sanshun suffered a disaster. As soon as Wang Sanshun came back with two strings of bright red sugar balls, the dwarf drew out a five-gun Mauser against Wang Sanshun's waist, and suddenly shouted: "Don't move, I'll kill you if you move!" Wang Sanshun didn't know that Revolution had been betrayed at the time, and wanted to deny it, so he called out: "What are you doing, what are you doing, you? I... I'm just a poor man passing by..." The eldest lady stepped forward and snatched the sugar ball from Wang Sanshun's hand, she bit her mouth, and told the informant: "Don't believe him, this man is called Wang Sanshun, he is as bad as my father, and he is also my father's co-conspirator. party!"

The dwarf said to the eldest lady: "We all know it." Then he said to Wang Sanshun: "You fucking know me a little bit, and when your master comes, keep quiet and walk with us into the city for a while. trip……" Wang Sanshun said: "I won't go to the city, I... I will go to the mountains to attend the funeral..." A pockmark standing across from him smiled: "You're still pretending to be a fool! Let me tell you clearly, we are sent by the money management belt, and we have been watching you since last night. If you don't go to the city, our brother Why are you two explaining to Qian Guandai?" Wang Sanshun's legs went limp all of a sudden, and he fell and sat on the stone table behind him, unable to stand up again. Just at this moment, Bian Yifu and a middle-aged man who looked like a mountain person walked over quickly. When Wang Sanshun saw it, he was anxious and frightened, afraid that Yifu Bian and the middle-aged man would end up like him, so he ignored the warnings of the two soldiers, and boldly called out: "Master Bian, man... People's money management belts have come here...here..." Hearing Wang Sanshun's call, Bian Yifu still took two steps towards the broken tea shed, and stopped after only two steps, looking this way in surprise. The middle-aged man beside him reacted quickly, hiding behind a pine tree in front of him, and immediately pulled out his earthen gun at the tea shed. The dwarf and pockmark in the tea shed saw that the momentum was not right, one grabbed Wang Sanshun as a shield; After a moment of confrontation, the middle-aged man behind the pine tree spoke, and said to the dwarf and the pockmarked boy, "Do you fucking know what kind of place this is? If you dare to wield guns and sticks in this place, you won't be afraid that Aunt Xia will pick your skin off?" Shorty and Mazi naturally knew that Kouzi Village was Xiagu's territory, and it wasn't because of the death orders and silver rewards from the rich, and they didn't want to drill here, so they softened and put away the guns first.Putting away the gun, the dwarf said to the middle-aged man: "Master, we don't dare to trouble Aunt Xia, but just want to ask Mr. Bian to accompany our brothers to Xinhong City, and you can make it easy for us! " Yifu Bian hurriedly said, "I...I won't go, I...I don't know you Qian Guandai..." The dwarf said: "Mr. Bian doesn't have a good memory, and he has a good sense of forgetfulness. Why did he forget what happened last night? In the Boudoir Pavilion, isn't it the Qian Guan belt that our brother accompanied you to see?" Bian Yifu said: "Then...then I'm just...ordered to spread the post..." The dwarf continued to babble, but the middle-aged man was annoyed. He pointed his gun and said, "Get out of here. If you don't get out, I'm afraid you'll be in trouble. Once Aunt Xia arrives, you won't be able to leave even if you want to!" It's also a coincidence that when we were talking about Aunt Xia, Aunt Xia arrived. A sound of trampling hooves sounded from the village of Kouzi, and immediately came to the front, and a dozen fast horses also appeared in front of the stalemate crowd like a whirlwind. Both Yifu Bian and the middle-aged man were pleasantly surprised. The middle-aged man put away his soil gun, and stood up from behind the pine tree to meet Aunt Xia. Yifu Bian called out, "Sister Xia", and rushed eagerly to the horse. The dwarf and the pockmark gave up their hearts, and they didn't dare to fart any more, they turned and ran away. By the time everyone remembered them, they had disappeared. Aunt Xia was pretty and heroic that day, dressed for an expedition, with two Mausers pinned to her waist, and a red cloak dancing gracefully behind her. Jumping off the horse beside Yifu Bian, Aunt Xia happily grabbed Yifu Bian's hand and shook it, saying, "Well, you bastard Brother Bian, you're here at this time! You probably got it right." Are we going to assemble the West Third Route militia tonight?" Yifu Bian laughed and said, "I don't know, I brought them here to take refuge!" After finishing speaking, he pointed out Miss Xia, Miss Second, and Wang Sanshun beside him to Aunt Xia. Aunt Xia felt strange, so she asked, "There will be an incident soon, so what kind of trouble are you avoiding?" Yifu Bian sighed and said, "Isn't it just because we went to exercise the money management belt yesterday that there was a commotion! The money management belt arrested me and Sanshun once, but then let it go again. They wanted to let go of our long-term interests and catch my aunt. You are such a big fish! I can't let him catch it, so I just want to catch a fish that will never return..." Only then did Aunt Xia remember the instructions she had given, and she giggled and said, "It's hard for you, after being so frightened. But, we don't expect the money from the dog day to be in charge, and we have another one in the patrol camp." No other insiders, just feel free to follow me into the city tonight, and go to Huang En Restaurant for a drink tomorrow..." As soon as Second Miss heard that she was going to enter the city, she raised her face and said to Aunt Xia, "Aunt Xia, take me too, I haven't entered the city yet!" Aunt Xia remembered to ask again: "Brother Bian, why did you bring the two ladies here in such a hurry?" Yifu Bian let out a long sigh, and was about to pour out all his bitterness, when the eldest lady glared at Aunt Xia and shouted, "My grandma drove us all out because you hooked my father's soul!" Aunt Xia was taken aback, and asked Yifu Bian what was going on? Only then did Yifu Bian tell the root cause of the matter. Aunt Xia was moved, and grabbed Yifu Bian's hand, looked at the eldest lady, then at the second lady, turned around suddenly, waved her horsewhip and said to the brothers hugging behind her: "You always laugh at me and the second lady. Hello, Mr. Bian, I still laugh that Mr. Bian is a softie, but now that Mr. Bian and his own mother have turned against each other, dragging two young ladies who are so young to come to us to participate in the riot, is he considered a man? " All the brothers agree. Aunt Xia said: "Well, from now on, Mr. Bian will be half of our militia all the way to the west. Whoever dares to disobey Mr. Bian, I will punish him!" All the brethren said yes again. Thus, Yifu Bian officially joined the militia army of the uprising under the respectful eyes of his brothers in the Xilu militia army, and thus began his military career that lasted nearly 30 years.
