Chapter 2 Chapter two

Zhang Shijie and his entourage left Taiping Town with goods. People who didn't know the inside story thought that their trip was just for a business, so there was nothing strange about it.Yang Ziyun and Zhu Guozhu are both college students in Beiping who have returned to their hometown for refuge, and it is common to go in and out of Taiping Town.So, on the third morning after they left Taiping Town, the town was as peaceful as ever. Although the Japanese have reached Xinyang, it is believed that after all, there are still two or three hundred miles away from Taiping Town, and there are tens of thousands of national troops on the front lines of Suizhou, Zaoyang, Tanghe and Xinye. People in Taiping Town feel that the war is still far away from them. distant.Early in the morning, the thousand-year-old town with many shops woke up as usual with the rising of the sun.The gate of Taiping Town Primary School was also opened to welcome hundreds of boys and girls, big and small.The two largest shops in Taiping Town are the Tongshunxing general store of the Zhu family in the east of the town and the Huaiyuansheng general store of the Zhang family in the west of the town.The two deep houses next to the two general numbers are the houses of the most powerful Zhu family and Zhang family in Taiping Town.The Zhu family, the Zhang family, and the dilapidated Yang family are all prosperous families in Taiping Town in the past hundred years.The various stories performed by the three families in the past 100 years are enough to write a brilliant "Romance of the Three Houses" in the business world.

Fifteen years back in time, Taiping Town is still in a situation where Zhu, Zhang, and Yang are equally divided.In the winter of the thirteenth year of the Republic of China, a bloody case came suddenly. Thirteen members of the Yang family were killed. Only Yang Kaitai and Yang Ziyun, brothers and sisters, survived. The era of the tripartite confrontation in Taiping Town came to an end.The real inside story of this murder is still unknown to outsiders.Bystanders can only speculate about the relationship between the Zhu family and the Zhang family and the murder case of the Yang family from the fact that the Zhang family adopted the Yang family's orphan daughter, and Yang Kaitai sold the few remaining family properties to join the Northwest Army.

Fifteen years have passed, and Taiping Town has become a town where Zhu and Zhang have divided the land equally.The winner is the king and the loser is the Kou. This old saying was talked about by the people of Taiping Town for a long time when Yang Kaitai, a descendant of the Yang family, left the Northwest Army and went to Taibaiding to occupy the mountain as queen.If it wasn't for the Japanese coming in, Taiping Town might have staged a play of the return of the Three Kingdoms to Jin.Who will be the winner in the end between the Zhu family and the Zhang family has also been debated for a long time by the troublemakers.On the surface, Zhu and Zhang are indistinguishable in terms of strength and background.Zhu Zhaolin, the old shopkeeper of Tong Shunxing, and Zhang Dewei, the old shopkeeper of Huaiyuansheng, are both only sons, and the two companies have almost the same number of semicolons.Zhang Dewei's wife, Li Yujie, has a strong family background, and his brother-in-law, Li Guangdou, has been a provincial senator a few years ago.Zhu Zhaolin was not willing to lag behind in this respect. After his first wife died of illness, it took him three years to finally marry the widowed sister of a senator named Guo back home.After Li Yujie married into the Zhang family, within 14 years, she gave birth to the Zhang family's eldest son Zhang Shifan, eldest daughter Zhang Ruohong, second son Zhang Shijie, third son Zhang Shijun and youngest daughter Zhang Ruolan.Zhu Zhaolin's two wives, one gave birth to his eldest son Zhu Guodong and second son Zhu Guoliang, and the other gave birth to his third son Zhu Guozhu and only daughter Zhu Jianzhen.Zhang Ruohong, the eldest daughter of the Zhang family, has been expelled from the Zhang family because she disobeyed her mother and married Yao Sizhong, a down-and-out teacher.In this way, the reserve forces for the two to fight for the world in the future are still evenly matched.

Old people who are familiar with the history of the rise and fall of the Zhu and Zhang families have come to this conclusion in recent years: If Zhang Shijie, the second young master of the Zhang family, does not do something earth-shattering, within ten years, the Zhang family will no longer be able to reconcile with the Zhu family. It's a showdown.Their reasons are very good.In the past ten years, the Zhu family has followed the needs of the troubled times and started to grasp the gun.After graduating from the Whampoa Military Academy, Zhu Guodong, the eldest of the Zhu family, has become the colonel and head of the Fifth Theater of the Central Army.Zhu Guoliang, the second child of the Zhu family, also recently became the commander of the county security regiment.Zhang Shifan, the eldest of the Zhang family, and Zhang Shijie, the second child, both nested in Taiping Town as young shopkeepers.When the Zhu family looked for a wife for the third young master, they took the route of kissing and adding kisses, and they chose Guo Bingxue, the niece of the house-filling wife and the favorite of Senator Guo of the provincial government.The Zhang family looked for a wife for the second young master, but they took the route of free marriage. Zhang Shijie's temperament made him choose the lonely Yang Ziyun.This is doing business in troubled times, there is no backer to cover, no guns to protect, you have the ability to earn a gold mountain, but it is only prepared for stronger and more vicious characters.With these comparisons, people who are close to the Zhang family in Taiping Town inevitably worry about the future and fate of the Zhang family.

The peaceful life in Taiping Town was broken by such a shocking news this morning: Zhu Guozhu, the third young master of the Zhu family, had eloped with Yang Ziyun, the fiancée of the second young master of the Zhang family.Then there was even more shocking news: Zhang Shijie, the second young master of the Zhang family, did not go out to do business at all this time, he took his troops to chase and kill Zhu Guozhu, the third young master of the Zhu family. The first shocking news was quickly confirmed: Guo Bingxue, the daughter of Senator Guo and the fiancee of the third young master of the Zhu family, had come to settle accounts with the Zhu family.After Guo Bingxue made a big fuss in Zhu's courtyard, he led several followers he brought from Nanyang along the main street of the town from east to west.She is a tall, handsome girl, because she also studied in Taiping Town for several years when she was a child, and everyone in the town knows her.Seeing Guo Bingxue rush into a blacksmith's shop, grab the big hammer from a clerk and continue walking west, the people in the town knew that a direct conflict between Zhu and Zhang was inevitable.

The county security commander and the second young master of the Zhu family jumped out of the jeep and stopped Guo Bingxue with his hand, "Cousin, please speak up if you have something to say, don't be impulsive." He approached Guo Bingxue and whispered: "Cousin, calm down! Don't be impulsive." The wind is the rain. Face is important." Guo Bingxue sneered and said, "Second cousin, I have become an abandoned woman, so what face do I need? You came just in time, come with me to Yang's house to see if Yang Ziyun wants to Take a long trip." Saying that, he continued to walk west.Zhu Guoliang had no choice but to turn around and follow Guo Bingxue to the west, "Sister Bingxue! We are all respectable people. If you continue to make trouble like this, it will not end well. We are a family..." Guo Bingxue replied: "From today , my shitty engagement with Zhu Guozhu no longer exists. Our Guo family can’t afford to lose this person.” While speaking, he had already walked to the gate of the Yang family’s courtyard, raised his hammer and smashed the lock of the courtyard door, and went straight to the main room Before him, he broke open the door lock of the main room and kicked the door open, "Commander Zhu, Second Cousin, please see if Yang Ziyun has gone on a long trip." Throwing the hammer on the ground with a bang.

The objects in the Yang family's house were all arranged together, obviously no one was going to live there anymore.Zhu Guoliang followed Guo Bingxue to look at several rooms: "Miss Yang can't live at home, so it doesn't explain anything." Guo Bingxue said: "Go back and look at your brother's room. There is no such thing as a coincidence in the world! Tell you Well, I also know where they are going to elope. They are going to Jinzhugou to join the New Fourth Army." Seeing that the courtyard was full of onlookers, he suddenly said loudly: "Second cousin, be careful of your brother's life! Zhang Shijie Who is it, you know better than me. If he wants to kill someone, with one look, ten or eight of his subordinates will go up. I heard that Zhang Shijie has already led people to chase this pair of dogs. The hatred of killing the father and the hatred of taking the wife are both We can't live together!" As he said, he lifted his feet and walked out of the courtyard gate.The people standing in the courtyard automatically made way for Guo Bingxue.

Zhu Guoliang looked at the onlookers, and suddenly shouted: "Get out! Are you tired of working? You don't know who Yang Kaitai is? He has killed many little devils! If he knows that you are here to loot his property..." Before he finished speaking, everyone in the yard fled. The person in charge of the Zhang family is the old lady Li Yujie. Zhang Shifan, Huaiyuansheng's young shopkeeper, heard the news that Guo Bingxue had gone to Yang's and Zhu's to make trouble at the head office, and immediately went home and told the old man Zhang Dewei.When Zhang Dewei heard this, he smiled, "Rumors only stop with wise people. Listen to what your mother said." Zhang Dewei has a goatee, a thin body, and a kind and peaceful face.After that, he got up and walked to the back garden.

There are three large tile-roofed houses in the southeast corner of the back garden. The outer walls are whitewashed with lime, and there are two large windows facing south, lined with glass. This flower house is a major landscape of Zhang’s family. A fleet of foreign cars.At the moment, the two doors of the flower house are open, and two maids are moving pots and pots with flowers and plants outside.Li Yujie, the old lady of the Zhang family, is standing in front of a pot of jasmine tree with scissors in her hands and looking at her. She is of medium build, her hair is combed in a neat way, her duck egg face is white and shiny, and although there are wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and mouth, she still maintains her youthful appearance. The outline of the times, like her unshapeable figure, is full of generosity and calmness between her brows, and her whole body is as solid and reliable as the earth. Maternal temperament is ready to come out.It was not at all obvious that she was a woman approaching sixty years old.Li Yujie cut it with her hands, and the potted jasmine tree immediately became sparse and neat. She looked at her work again with satisfaction, and handed the scissors to the pretty and lovely maid Zhong Wutong who was wearing a red coat next to her.

Zhong Wutong put the scissors in the bamboo basket, helped Li Yujie to a chair covered with a satin cushion and sat down, raised his head, and blurted out: "The master and the young master are here." He hurried to the flower room to move Chair.Li Yujie didn't wait for her son and husband to speak, and said: "A son is a good son who is loyal to the country. Ziyun knows that a husband is a good son, so he is a good daughter-in-law. I just don't understand why Shijie wants to get involved in such a thing. "Zhang Dewei nodded in admiration: "Pruning flowers and plants, nothing was delayed. It wasn't Shifan who said, I didn't know that the second child went to Jinzhugou. I don't understand which song Miss Guo sang. Isn't it Do you put a pot of shit on yourself?" Li Yujie said with a smile: "You will become a saint after a few more years of practice, and you can't understand mortal affairs. Ms. Guo has only one purpose for doing this: to regret the marriage." Zhang Shifan was puzzled Ask: "Repentant marriage? Regretful marriage. She regretted her marriage. Why did she get involved with Ziyun? Why did she ruin our family's reputation?" Li Yujie said, "You don't understand women's hearts. This Miss Guo has always wanted to be our family's daughter-in-law. If our family didn't have a family rule against taking concubines, I would really like to have both. The youngest of the Zhu family has not thought about Ziyun for a day or two, what a poor guy. It's not me who protects the calf, what about him I can't even compare with Shi Jie. According to my heart, I really want to break the rules of my ancestors and marry Zhu's third daughter-in-law to be Zhang's second concubine." Zhang Dewei shook his head: "Rules cannot be broken. This kind of His heart is not kind. Knowing that he likes Ziyun, it shows that the youngest of the Zhu family is pure in heart. He is right." Li Yujie said sharply: "A dog has nine cubs, and there will be a mastiff. It is strange that the Zhu family can give birth to Zhu Guozhu. Kindness? You See how he looks lost when he sees Shijie and Ziyun together? Can I be kind to him? Shijie has no conscience, he is so cruel! He doesn't even say hello!" Zhang Shifan answered Sentence: "He has been prepared for a long time. A month ago, he paid 15,000 oceans from the account room, saying that he was going to buy goods, but the goods have not been seen, and the money is still pending in the account. Looking at it now, he must have used the money Bought a gun."

Zhang Dewei took a sip from Wutong's teacup, "When the country is in crisis, as a countryman, it is natural to have money and strength to contribute. You and I have three sons, and none of them beat devils with guns, and there are some disadvantages in big festivals." "He took a few puffs of the dry pipe from Wutong's hand, "Shijie is not ignorant of important matters, abandoning business and joining the army, today, it is considered a manly act." Li Yujie smiled, "I can't say no to you when you talk about big festivals. We His son should also be able to carry a gun and shoot devils. I just object to him going to Jinzhugou. Although the Communist Party is now legal, it has fought against the government for more than ten years. The Kuomintang and the Communist Party have cooperated, but, the Communist Party is raised by stepmothers after all. Shijie defected to them. Tens of thousands of dollars may not be able to find a regiment commander or battalion commander in the Central Army. Old man, do you think what I said makes sense?" Zhang Dewei stroked his goatee, "That's the reason. I also know what the Communist Party stands for. Yes, it will be a matter of time before it becomes a climate. Mr. Zhao Jiusi Zhao, who led Shijie to the right path, probably also has a surname of the Communist Party. Mr. Zhao and Shijie must have led Kaitai of the Yang family and Yao Sizhong from bandits to the New Fourth Army. This shows that Shijie already has some foundation in the Communist Party. If a cow does not drink water and presses his head forcibly, it is not good. If a child is not allowed to be a mother, if a girl is not allowed to stay, I think he should go. Deal with Ruohong back then There are lessons to be learned..." Li Yujie interrupted: "I don't like to hear that. What is Yao Sizhong? Zhang Ruohong is blind." Zhang Dewei stood up, "You have an idea, what do you want to do? Just do what you want." Then he walked out. Li Yujie hurriedly stopped Zhang Dewei, "Aren't you being narrow-minded again? I am clearly in charge of the house, but you are not in charge of the big things in the house? I drink less ink than you, and I am short-sighted. You can talk about it. I just think the KMT and the Communist Party will never Sleeping together forever? Family and country are the same thing. Look at us and the Zhu family, you know that the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party will not last long." Zhang Dewei smiled, "Your knowledge is enough to be called a hero in the female middle school. Don't we still Do you have a son? After Shijun becomes an adult, let his uncle worry about him. There are powerful enemies outside and brothers fighting inside. In this troubled world, you can’t just stick to one door like the Zhu family. If you want to live for a long time You have to bet three melons and two dates on either one." Li Yujie nodded and said: "I understand, this is your big idea. Shifan is in business, and Shijie bet on the Communist Party. In the future, let Shijun work in the government , think far ahead. Let’s do this. Shifan, Shijie sent 15,000 yuan, counted at the end of the year, and recorded it in the big account at home. Shijie went to join the Communist Party, so he couldn’t be empty-handed, right? In addition, send someone to Jinzhugou as soon as possible Tell Shijie and Ziyun about the Yao'ezi who came out of the town, and tell them to get married quickly, so that others won't gossip. Besides, if you beat the Japanese devils, you will inevitably have casualties, so give birth to a boy and a half girl , that's fine too." Zhang Shifan agreed and went out. In the pistol platoon, there were a few veterans brought by Yang Kaitai from the 29th Army, and they were no strangers to armed reorganization.At that time, Feng Yuxiang was defeated, so he had to be dismissed and study abroad.Looking at the current situation, the New Fourth Army will not let Yang Kaitai lead the special brigade again.Brothers are also birds in the same forest, and when disaster strikes, we must fly separately.After sleeping in the compound overnight, the pistol platoon members had to think about their future. At noon, several New Fourth Army soldiers brought a large basket of steamed buns, two pots of vegetables, and two buckets of porridge, and yelled for everyone to line up for dinner.Several soldiers lined up in front of the dinner table, Zhou Yinxing coughed a few times, those soldiers stepped back, let Zhou Yinxing be the first to receive the meal, and brought it to Yang Kaitai.Zhou Yinxing looked at it coldly, only six or seven people gathered around Yang Kaitai with their rice bowls, and the rest of them scattered in the yard in one group or another.Zhou Yinxing's thick black eyebrows furrowed more and more.After a while, a soldier was carrying a bowl to serve food again. Zhou Yinxing rushed over and kicked the bowl away from the soldier's hand.The soldier picked up the broken bowl and shouted, "What are you doing?" Zhou Yinxing sneered, "Let you review the rules! Captain Yang didn't fill the second bowl, so you dared to touch the spoon." The soldier asked again I went to get a bowl, "I'm not full. I'm not rectifying my studies. This kind of unequal rule between officers and soldiers should have been abolished long ago." As he spoke, he picked up the spoon.Zhou Yinxing rushed over, snatched the soldier's bowl, and smashed it to pieces on the ground.Seeing this situation, several people stood up, and several people around Yang Kaitai also stood up.Yao Sizhong, who was eating alone, quickly put the porridge into his mouth as if nothing happened.Yang Kaitai shouted loudly: "Squat down! Ginkgo, come back! They are right, the officers and soldiers agree on this subject, we are late in learning. I am full, Xiao Wang, use my bowl." Zhou Ginkgo bent down and grabbed Picked up a handful of soil, sprinkled it into the cooking pot and the rice bucket, and kicked the steamed bun basket to the ground, "Eat it, I'll kill you!" Yang Kaitai threw the bowl, grabbed Zhou Yinxing and slapped Zhou Yinxing, "One Girl, how could you do such a thing? It's against you!" Zhou Yinxing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and then spat into the food, "They can do it, why can't I do it? Things that are not as good as dogs, you guys Touch your chest and tell me, which one has not received the great kindness of the big brother? You dare to throw stones at the big brother before he fell into the well, are you still human?" He cried. Zhang Shijie, Yang Ziyun, and Zhao Jiusi followed a New Fourth Army cadre into the courtyard.Following the instructions of the chief, they came to persuade Yang Kaitai to stay.Zhao Jiusi picked up a steamed bun from the ground, "These steamed buns have been sold for an ocean in Wuhan!" Yao Sizhong said solemnly, "The orderly Zhou Yinxing of the brigade should take the main responsibility for this matter." Zhang Shijie walked up to Zhou Yinxing with a smile , "Ginkgo, who made you unhappy?" Zhou Yinxing raised his hand and slapped Zhang Shijie across the face: "Bastard! You have made us miserable!" Everyone in the courtyard was shocked and looked at Yang Kaitai.Yang Kaitai did not speak, but stared at Zhang Shijie with his eyes. Yang Ziyun rolled his eyes at his brother, "Brother, just let her get used to her, sooner or later you will kill her. Look at what you have done, don't reorganize it, okay?" Zhao Jiusi hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Captain Yang, the world Master Jie’s starting point is good. You know the fighting power of the Japanese devils. The army does not have iron discipline and cannot fight against the devils. The chief and we all hope that you can stay.” Zhang Shijie said: “Brother, stay. "Yang Kaitai said: "Why don't you wear a military uniform?" Yang Ziyun said: "He failed the review. Brother, the New Fourth Army is not just anyone who wants to be." Yang Kaitai looked at Zhang Shijie again, "Second Master Zhang, this is fate. I admit it. You and Mr. Zhao are outsiders and have no right to meddle in our affairs. This young chief, I want to ask my other 300-odd brothers, in your terms, how many comrades were killed or injured?" The staff officer said: " I am Staff Officer Wang. Yinfengzhai never fired a gun.” Yang Kaitai sighed and said, “It’s okay. I’m just ashamed of Brother Zhenhai. Otherwise, I, Yang Kaitai, would have committed suicide to apologize. I have taken care of you, whichever way you want to go, it is up to you. You don’t care about which way you go. Staff Wang, you can’t make the decision, you can find a chief to show us the way.” The work of persuasion cannot continue.After half an hour, the head of the bespectacled guide came.Two tables were set up in the small square outside the courtyard. Two pistols were placed on the tables, and more than two dozen rifles were leaning against the tables.Yang Kaitai, Yao Sizhong, Zhou Yinxing and the soldiers of the pistol platoon stood in line facing two tables.A big and round warrior stood beside Yang Kaitai with Long Zhenhai's body on his back.Zhang Shijie, Zhao Jiusi and Yang Ziyun stood helplessly under a locust tree and watched.At some point, Zhu Guozhu also came and stood silently behind Yang Ziyun. The head of the glasses cleared his throat and swept the entire team with stern eyes, "The army is about to go to the front line of the Anti-Japanese War, and it is necessary to purge the team. Long Zhenhai committed suicide and apologized. He is a man. However, we are not forced to die just because of Long Zhenhai." Renming made up his mind to carry out the second reorganization of the special brigade. The reorganization work at Yinfengzhai went very smoothly. A total of 316 people stayed in the army, and only seven people chose to leave. This shows that the special brigade The foundation of this team is good. Now, it depends on how you choose. The situation of the Anti-Japanese War is very severe. Due to the evil power of the devils, many people defected to the enemy and became traitors. Even Wang Jingwei ran away. So, it is up to you to leave or stay. Think clearly. What kind of war is the Anti-Japanese War? Chairman Mao Zedong said, this is a protracted war. If you stay here, you will have to fight many battles, and there will definitely be bloodshed. Our New Fourth Army is a team that is not afraid of bloodshed The anti-Japanese team. This is an important choice in your life. I want to emphasize one point: those who stay are members of the revolutionary team, and those who have positions should be assigned corresponding positions. The organization will never Discriminate against anyone for reorganization. Everyone heard clearly! Those who choose to stay, stand still, and those who choose to leave, go out and stand to the right. Start—" Before the words were finished, Yang Kaitai walked out of the team and walked towards the designated position.Zhou Yinxing and the other seven people followed without hesitation.Zhang Shijie closed his eyes in pain.Seeing her brother taking the first step, Yang Ziyun burst into tears.Zhao Jiusi kept his eyes fixed on Yao Sizhong.Yao Sizhong kept looking at the head of the glasses, standing motionless, with a layer of sweat beads the size of soybeans oozing from his forehead.Yang Kaitai subconsciously looked to the left, and when he saw that no one was coming, he sighed softly. The head of the glasses walked over and patted Yao Sizhong on the shoulder in satisfaction, "Very good. Thirty-three people, twenty-five left, not bad. Shoot vice-captain Yao and the remaining comrades. Give travel expenses to eight of them. Comrade Sizhong, you are temporarily in charge of organizing the twenty-five of you to study." Yang Kaitai said loudly: "Chief, we don't want the travel expenses, can you leave us some guns?" No one is allowed to leave the team with weapons, this is the rule." Zhou Yinxing shouted: "You are being unreasonable? What should we do if we encounter enemies? Do you know how many enemies we have? Commander, do you know how many guns we brought here? And these horses?" The head of the glasses said: "I have heard all that you said. Rules are rules. Without rules, how can there be a square? Pay travel expenses. Leave eight horses for them." Grab the table hat, turn around and leave.Zhou Yinxing screamed: "It's not fair! Give us back our guns—" Yang Kaitai yelled: "Enough! Fulong platoon leader mounts—leave." Zhang Shijie was going to stop the glasses chief, but Zhao Jiusi grabbed him.Zhang Shijie said angrily: "This is really unfair! Without guns, they can only die." Zhao Jiusi said: "Think of other ways. You have guns." Yang Kaitai got on the horse and shouted: "Ziyun—brother, is it dead or alive? , You don’t need to worry about it. You can do it yourself.” Eight people rode away. Zhang Shijie frantically ran back to his residence, forced his men to take off eight sets of coats, brought a dozen long and short guns, Gao Liansheng, Liu Jinsheng and others rode after him.Zhao Jiusi and Yang Ziyun also chased after them on horseback.Yang Kaitai and others delayed for a while to get the pass to get out of Jinzhugou. When the eight people rushed to the checkpoint in the valley, Zhang Shijie, Gao Liansheng, and Liu Jinsheng were already waiting outside the checkpoint.Zhang Shijie threw the long and short guns over one by one, "Don't say anything, all mistakes are my fault. Brother Yang, I will pay for the guns and horses you lost." Zhou Yinxing continued: "What about people? ? Do you pay?" He raised his gun and shot at Zhang Shijie. Gao Liansheng had quick eyes and quick hands, and threw Zhou Yinxing off the white horse in one fell swoop.The bullet flew over Zhang Shijie's head.The sentries of the New Fourth Army pointed their guns at Zhou Yinxing.Yang Ziyun exclaimed from behind: "Shijie—" Yang Kaitai jumped off the horse, raised his hand and slapped Zhou Yinxing across the face, "You are so stupid—you get lost." Zhou Yinxing said relentlessly: "Zhang Shijie, you Big brother ruined, you ruined us all—Miss, this person is too insidious, please ignore him—” Yang Ziyun looked at Zhou Yinxing coldly: “Remember: If Zhang Shijie died in vain without knowing it, I want you, Zhou Yinxing, to die!" Zhang Shijie laughed and said, "Don't scare her, how old is she? Lian Sheng, let her go. Sentinel, put your guys away. With you, a loyal little girl, by my brother's side, I'm relieved." He took out a small pistol and handed it to Zhou Yinxing, "I'll give you this Browning too. I like to see you wielding two pistols." Zhou Yinxing cried loudly, "It's over, it's all over—— Hundreds of people, hundreds of guns, all gone." Yang Kaitai yelled: "Cry ass! Before long, everything will be there." Zhao Jiusi continued: "Change your clothes. This matter, I and I Shijie didn't expect that. I didn't expect that the New Fourth Army had too many rules. The Zhang family and the Yang family are family friends, Ziyun and Shijie..." Yang Kaitai got on his horse and glared at Zhao Jiusi, "You are not a good bird! Get on your horse." Zhang Shijie said: "Brother, the future will last forever. Brother Zhenhai's mother will be raised by me—" Yang Kaitai laughed suddenly, "Don't bother you! From now on, you take your Yangguan road, and I cross my single-plank bridge. You are sorry Ziyun, you are just my brother-in-law. You are sorry for Ziyun, I will kill you. Don’t talk about me brother. Go—” Eight people entered the valley with a bundle of clothes. Zhang Shijie yelled towards the valley: "Brother - you will always be my big brother -" Because the situation on the battlefield in Wuhan was no longer the same, the New Fourth Army in Jinzhugou decided to immediately go to the enemy's rear to open up a new base.In this way, Yao Sizhong's idea of ​​picking up Zhang Ruohong to meet him came to nothing.Zhang Shijie comforted Yao Sizhong, and immediately went to find Yang Ziyun. The team is ready to assemble.The two lovers who were looking forward to fighting the enemy side by side two days ago had to part because of their different secret missions.The two stood facing each other under an ancient locust tree at the entrance of the village, staring at each other affectionately, without saying a word for a long time.Yang Ziyun reached out and took Zhang Shijie's right hand, brought it to his lips and kissed it lightly.Zhang Shijie smiled, lovingly stroking Yang Ziyun's black hair.The sun is about to set, and the setting sun illuminates the couple who know each other and the locust tree sadly and beautifully.Yang Ziyun rolled up Zhang Shijie's sleeve, lowered his head and bit Zhang Shijie's wrist hard.Zhang Shijie cried out in pain, trying to break free.Yang Ziyun firmly grasped Zhang Shijie's hand, watching several red dots grow out from the teeth marks in the rice grains, growing bigger and bigger.Yang Ziyun put the index finger of his right hand into his mouth and bit it hard.Blood flowed from her index finger, and then she hung the bleeding finger above Zhang Shijie's wrist, a few drops of blood dripped into the tooth marks on Zhang Shijie's wrist, and dissolved with Zhang Shijie's blood.Yang Ziyun licked the blood with his tongue, and when he looked up, his face was full of tears.She sent Zhang Shijie's wrist to Zhang Shijie's mouth.Zhang Shijie lowered his head and licked the blood away.Yang Ziyun said: "I am in you, and you are in me. You drank my blood, and I drank your blood. To live, you want to live, I want to live, you and I will live!" Zhang Shijie nodded, "If you're alive, you must be alive." Yang Ziyun said, "I'll wait for you, forever." He kissed Zhang Shijie on the face.There was a bloody lip mark on Zhang Shijie's left cheek. This scene stunned Zhu Guozhu who ran out of the village. Zhang Shijie shouted: "Guozhu—come here..." Yang Ziyun asked: "Are you assembled?" Zhu Guozhu muttered: "Hurry up, I see that your things are not packed...Brother Shijie, why don't you come again Go find the chief." Zhang Shijie said carelessly: "I will never do the thing of sticking a hot face on someone's buttocks a second time. Ziyun, you go clean it up. Guozhu, wait a moment." Zhu Guozhu waited for a long time , Zhang Shijie didn’t see Zhang Shijie opening his mouth, and said in a low voice: “Brother Shijie, what do you want to confess, tell me quickly, I haven’t packed up my things.” Zhang Shijie looked at Zhu Guozhu, touched Zhu Guozhu’s military uniform, “Damn it, what do you say? What's the matter? Why do you guys wear this military uniform? I can't persuade Ziyun to take off this military uniform and go back to Taiping Town with me. What the hell is the mute eating Coptis chinensis? I can't tell the pain. I fuck him Grandma's?" Zhu Guozhu said with a smile: "You speak a lot of foul words! I really haven't heard you scold anyone before." Zhang Shijie said: "You bastard has never really been in love. I don't know how much I feel now. Suffering is so complicated. When it’s time to scold your mother, I’m not polite. Sometimes I say scolding, and I feel happy. What do you want me to say about this?” Zhu Guozhu said: “Are you worried about Ziyun? Are you worried? What? She loves you, don't you know?" Zhang Shijie said: "Of course I know. Guozhu, I'll give you a task..." Zhu Guozhu immediately said: "Don't worry, I will take care of Ziyun, and you, Help me take care of Guo Bingxue when I have time." Zhang Shijie covered his stomach and laughed, "You nerd, what are you talking about! Help me keep an eye on the people around Ziyun, if you see bad people trying to bully her, you Be sure to write to me. Guo Bingxue, I will also help you look into it." Zhu Guozhu said: "You don't need to look, whoever she likes to hang out with, I don't love her at all. I also know that she doesn't either. Love me. Actually, Bingxue likes you quite a lot. Brother Shijie, in terms of beauty, Bingxue seems to be even better. You see, the New Fourth Army doesn’t want you, and Ziyun and her... Let’s change our fiancée?" Zhang Shijie said sternly : "Fart! Brother, you must not fall in love with Ziyun. If you do this, I will pinch your neck. There are so many stupid words, you don't understand you!" Zhu Guozhu had no choice but to pretend to be stupid, and after a few perfunctory words, gone. That night, Yang Ziyun left with the Eastern Expedition team.Zhang Shijie felt that the indescribable emptiness in his heart could not be resolved at all, so he rode a horse and followed the team for most of the night.According to the agreement at dinner, Zhang Shijie took his people back to Taiping Town early the next morning.Gao Liansheng, Liu Jinsheng and the others waited for a long time at the wheat threshing ground, but when Zhang Shijie was nowhere to be seen, a dozen of them felt terrified.Will the Second Young Master leave them alone and join the New Fourth Army?Gao Liansheng and Liu Jinsheng were both poor children who had lived in Zhang's mansion since they were young. Gao Liansheng was adopted by Li Yujie as his godson. They never even thought about what life would be like without Zhang Shijie.Eighteen people squatted on the threshing floor in panic, without saying a word.Zhao Jiusi and Cao Zhenhe rode over.Everyone hurriedly stood up. Zhao Jiusi asked suspiciously, "Where is Master Shijie?" Gao Liansheng raised his head and replied, "We are waiting for him too. Last night he said that he was very annoyed and wanted to go for a walk? Mr. Zhao, will Second Young Master follow the team? ?” Zhao Jiusi said, “Impossible.” Zhang Shijie rode over on a bay red horse.Zhao Jiusi drove the horse around the bay red horse, and laughed a few times loudly: "Second young master is really a lover! Look at the dew, it looks like you didn't sleep at all tonight." Zhang Shijie ignored Zhao Jiusi, "You guys Get on your horses and go back to Taiping Town." Zhao Jiusi smiled and said, "The goods bought by more than 10,000 oceans are gone. How do you explain to the old shopkeeper and the old lady?" Zhang Shijie glared at Zhao Jiusi, "You are called a shit friend! At a critical moment , did you speak for me? How I explain is none of your business. Let’s go. Boss Zhao, I’m sorry for you, you have to remember!” Liu Jinsheng muttered: “Isn’t it just shooting two birds? They don’t want people, and they don’t give money after receiving the goods. What’s the rule?” Zhao Jiusi threw a cloth bag on the ground, “Zhenhe, give it to them. Let’s see what it is.” Liu Jinsheng and Gao Liansheng went over to open the cloth bag.One cloth bag contained silver dollars, and the other cloth bag contained four pistols and two long guns. Gao Liansheng raised his head and asked, "Given by the New Fourth Army?" Zhao Jiusi said, "Second Young Master, don't blame me. I am also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and I can't protect myself. The ten thousand oceans are money given by the New Fourth Army. I can't let your Second Young Master Lose your wife and lose your army, right? Shijie, female soldiers are treasures, and Ziyun will not be in any danger. Our cooperation is just the beginning, don't make me feel embarrassed. Anyway, I have been your two Teacher Nian, give me some face. Boys don’t flick their tears easily, cheer up.” Zhang Shijie replied loudly: “What do you think of me? Teacher Zhao! What should you do? Let’s take our things with you Come on, go to Biyang to buy some goods." Zhao Jiusi said, "Be good to be your second young master. There will be a date later." Zhang Shijie and his party of nineteen had no choice but to embark on the road back home.Many years later, Zhang Shijie realized that this trip to Jinzhugou was a watershed in his life. On this watershed, the tombstone of his true love stands and is also a monument. When Guo Bingxue smashed the door lock of Yang's house with a hammer, she still couldn't confirm whether Zhang Shijie really took Yang Ziyun to join the New Fourth Army this time.After seeing that there were no girls' things in Yang Ziyun's room, Guo Bingxue realized that Zhang Shijie, whom he had been secretly in love with for several years, had really taken his beloved woman away this time.The person who told Guo Bingxue only said that Zhu Guozhu went to Jinzhugou with Zhang Shijie and Yang Ziyun, and that Zhu Guozhu and Yang Ziyun's elopement was made up by her quick wit.She hoped to alarm both the Zhu and Zhang families in Taiping Town, and with the help of these two families, prevent Zhang Shijie from leaving Nanyang and prevent him from completely disappearing from her sight. After a wind and snow blew up in Taiping Town, Guo Bingxue ran to the Huaihe River in the south of the town alone.There are 38 sources of the Huaihe River, and the Huaihe River flowing through Taiping Town has gathered 38 sources, including the source of the highest water level in Liupan Valley.This is where the valleys meet peacefully. The meandering Huaihe River gathers the essence of various mountains. The river is clear and the banks are handsome. Generally moody, often harm the world.Guo Bingxue was born in the south, and returned to Nanyang with her father at the age of twelve. It was winter, and the bare fields around Nanyang gave her a very desolate impression. Only then did the town give her the feeling of returning to the South.而且，太平镇的夏天又不像南方那么潮热，冬天又能见到和她的名字一样的皑皑白雪，郭冰雪就不再回忆南方那个小巧精致的院子，那个院子自从外婆去世之后，已经在舅妈冰冷的眼光下变成一块伤心地而不是乐园。随着父亲官职的升高，在南阳、在太平镇，郭冰雪得到了更多的宠爱，特别是郭冰雪的父亲升任省参议员又随着省政府撤到南阳之后，郭冰雪觉着走到哪里都是笑脸，无论干什么事都畅通无阻。权力的光环让郭冰雪越来越自信。杨紫云和朱国柱到北平上学后，郭冰雪决定把张世杰抢过来。 此时的淮河已进入秋季，正是一年中最美丽的时候，河水潋滟发光，河岸上开满野花，小草和树叶已从翠绿变成成熟的浓绿，空气清新得吸一口都有飘飘欲仙的感觉。郭冰雪站在岸边，看看不远处太平镇小学那个宽阔的操场，那里曾经是张世杰领着他的弟兄们练武的地方，这些身影如今都消失了，有的也许永远不再回来。郭冰雪心头一阵发紧，如果这一生再也看不见张世杰的身影，活着还有什么意思？郭冰雪决定采取进一步行动，把战火烧到远在二百里外的金竹沟。主意已定，她朝太平镇跑去。 朱家老掌柜朱照邻从新野大儿子朱国栋那里回到家，一听郭冰雪打上门来闹事，惊得一屁股坐在太师椅上半天说不出话。事情来得太突然了。朱照邻这次去新野，商议的事情就是尽快让老三国柱和郭冰雪成亲。上校团长像牛毛一样多，朱家的羽翼离丰满还差十万八千里。这件事情必须小心处置。 茶喝三道，烟抽两锅，下人来报：郭小姐已回到她的专用房间了。朱照邻眼睛一亮，从烟床上爬起来，“太太呢？快请太太。”不一会儿，朱照邻带着朱太太一起走进郭冰雪的闺房。身后跟着的几个丫环，抱着簇新的床单被子，还有几样一向摆在朱照邻书房的珍奇古玩。朱照邻还不到六十岁，白胖，富态，厚厚的眼皮遮住了眼睛里的光亮，两只手总是下意识做出拨打算盘的动作。朱太太不到五十岁，身材消瘦，眉眼依稀和郭冰雪相似，只是皮肤没了光泽，脸色蜡黄。朱照邻在沙发上坐下，一招手，一个丫环把手中的青花古瓶放在茶几上。朱照邻说道：“小雪，记得你上次来的时候，很喜欢这个古瓶，以后这个瓶子就放你屋里了，你回南阳的时候，带上它。”郭冰雪放下手中的东西，“姑父，你不知道国柱和杨小姐……”朱照邻骂道：“龟孙子胡编排！国柱和那个紫云在北平是同学，即便是两人一起出行，也很正常嘛。你也是读过书的新派学生，你会相信吗？再说呢，张家也不是一般人家，紫云便是对国柱有意，她敢走这一步？这不是忘恩负义吗？”郭冰雪一时不知如何应对，顺口说：“我也不想相信，可都这么说……”朱照邻站起来说：“让他们说去吧。我刚从你大表哥那儿回来，我们想趁早把你和国柱的事儿办了。鬼子一时半会儿又赶不走，国柱这学不上也罢。结了婚，你们住南阳住太平镇都行。你回去给你爸说说，给国柱在南阳谋个差，整天闲着，肯定惹是生非。”郭冰雪笑了起来，“真有意思。结婚没新郎怎么结？无风不起浪啊姑父。”朱照邻道：“三天，三天后，我带着国柱去南阳，商量你们的婚事。”郭冰雪冷笑一声：“我要去问问国柱，他要心里没我，还结什么婚？请你们出去一下，我要换衣服出远门。”朱太太担忧道：“你要去哪里？”郭冰雪道：“金竹沟。你们也别拦我，拦也拦不住。他们要不在金竹沟，我道歉。请吧。” 朱照邻知道郭冰雪不是好糊弄的，只好退了出去，吩咐二儿子派人去金竹沟打听打听。吃了午饭，郭冰雪女扮男装骑着白马上路了。因为路不熟，郭冰雪用了一天两夜，才摸进金竹沟。走山路时，白马失前蹄，差点把郭冰雪摔散架。 金竹沟只剩下一些伤员和留守人员。吴参谋叫张世杰刺断了肋骨，没法跟大部队东征，只好留下来一边养伤一边管理从战场上下来的伤员，心情郁闷至极。一大早，吴参谋就让两个战士扶他出来晒太阳。郭冰雪牵着马一瘸一拐走进新四军驻地。这个地方她曾在父亲和同僚们的谈话中多次听说，应该是个很热闹的地方。可是，这里却异常安静，没有歌声，也没有训练的喊杀声，也没见穿着灰军装的队伍在街头巷尾走过。当她怀疑是不是走错地方的时候，两个持枪的哨兵拦住了她，问她来干什么。郭冰雪从小看着官场应酬长大的，知道怎么样办事效率最高，当即就说要找管事的官，有重要的事情要办。哨兵把她带到一排房子前，交给了正在晒太阳的吴参谋。吴参谋手放在腹部，懒洋洋问道：“你有什么事？” 郭冰雪笑问道：“首长，我打听一个人，太平镇的张世杰来没来过这里？”吴参谋想坐直身体，只动了一下，嘴里就吸着凉气。吴参谋道：“你是他家的伙计？”郭冰雪忙笑着，“首长好眼力。”吴参谋道：“你也是来参军的吧？”郭冰雪道：“对对对。我们二少爷带着不少人来投奔新四军……我跟他们走散了……首长认识我家少爷？”吴参谋道：“岂止认识。你家少爷真他娘的狠，拼刺刀一个顶八个……”郭冰雪向前凑几步，“二少爷他参军了？”吴参谋愤然道：“参军？他别想。看见没有，他把我的肋骨打断了，还在这里开枪打死两只鸟，要不是大部队转移，我们新四军和他没完。他已经带着他的人回家了。”郭冰雪一听张世杰回了家，鼻尖一酸，眼泪刷地流下来，“他没参军？”吴参谋关切地：“你哭什么！你受伤了？”郭冰雪赶快擦擦眼睛，“从马上摔下来伤了腿和胳膊。我，我有个毛病，饿狠了就流眼泪，我已经一天多没吃饭了。谢谢首长，我走了。”吴参谋道：“慢着。刚子，过来，带这位小兄弟去卫生队，给他处理一下伤。热点饭菜给他吃。还有，把他的马也喂喂。”郭冰雪走了几步，回头又问道：“首长，我还想打听个事。跟我家少爷一起来的一男一女去哪里了？男的姓朱，女的姓杨，他们还跟我家少爷在一起吗？”吴参谋道：“你说的是朱国柱和杨紫云吧？他们都参军了，他们懂日语，是我们需要的人。他们跟着大部队转移了。”郭冰雪忍不住大叫一声：“天呢！太棒了！” 这趟金竹沟，来得真是太值了！这一跤摔得真是太值了。郭冰雪在金竹沟住了一夜，把张世杰、杨紫云、朱国柱几个人这几天的情况问个门儿清后，骑着白马踏着朝阳，急匆匆往太平镇赶。一路上，她都在设想怎样让张世杰移情的方案。正在迷迷瞪瞪走着，一声尖厉的口哨声响起。没等郭冰雪弄清那口哨声来自何方，四个带枪的男人骑马从前后两面把郭冰雪夹住了。郭冰雪大惊，“干什么？你们要干什么？” “干什么？看来是个没出过门的雏儿。”骑马当中的白脸笑道：“老子好久没开张了，饶你一命。把马留下，把钱和东西留下，滚！”郭冰雪镇静下来了，“抢劫？”白脸仰天打了个哈哈：“啰唆什么？下马！” “你们敢！你们知道我是谁吗？小孟尝张世杰，你们认识吗？那是我哥。让开！”郭冰雪想用张世杰的名头吓吓人，也想看看张世杰是不是像传说的那样能几道通吃。 一个瘦子跳下马，一把拽下郭冰雪，郭冰雪的帽子掉了，一头长发露了出来，瘦子叫道：“是个女的？大哥，是个女的——”郭冰雪尖叫着，“放开我——救命啊——”白脸也下了马，伸手托起郭冰雪的脸看，“真好听，叫吧，叫吧。长得可真俊。”在郭冰雪脸上亲一口。郭冰雪挣扎着，“救命啊！救命！”白脸狂笑一阵，“叫得好听！晚上上床，可别当哑巴！”郭冰雪啐了一口，“你不得好死！”白脸道：“捆上，带走。小心，别伤着她。大家都有份儿，心疼点。”郭冰雪泪流满面，央求着，“我给你们送钱，行不行？一千大洋？别捆我。要不，两千大洋？” “钱也要，人也要。带走。”白脸狞笑着说。趁瘦子从腰里拿绳子的时候，郭冰雪猛地挣脱，狂奔着大叫，“救命啊！救命啊——”白脸狞笑着，拨马便追。郭冰雪拼足了劲跑着，只听着身后的马蹄声越来越近，那个白脸男人的狞笑声越来越响，她把心一横，冲着一块石头冲去，打算碰死在石头上。 这时，只听几声枪响，扑通一声，白脸男人从马上摔下来，郭冰雪猛地停住脚步，转过身来，只见一个穿着灰色军装的女孩翻身下马，踩住白脸的胸口，“老白脸，日子过得不错呀！”白脸的脸都绿了，“银杏小姐，饶命。”周银杏咯咯笑起来，“偷钱，偷枪，背叛大哥，哪一条都是死罪，怎么饶？”抬手给白脸补了一枪。郭冰雪看看周围，另外三个追她的土匪也已经被击毙，但又多了六七个拿着枪的男人，正在搜那几个人的尸体，看来这也是道上的人，不禁觉得头晕眼花，两条腿直打哆嗦。 一个满脸长着铁青色胡茬的高条人下马走到郭冰雪跟前，“好面熟，姑娘，你叫什么？”郭冰雪迟疑地问：“你是杨，杨开泰？”几年前杨开泰刚从东北回来，去南阳女中看杨紫云，曾经见过郭冰雪一面，那个时候，他留着满脸的大胡子。杨开泰点点头，“想起来了，你是郭小姐，郭冰雪。几年没见，长成大姑娘了。”确定了杨开泰的身份，郭冰雪两腿一软，晕倒在地上。杨开泰忙扶起郭冰雪，叫道：“郭小姐，郭小姐，你怎么了？” 周银杏听见杨开泰的叫声，一挥手，让别的手下搜那四个小土匪的尸体，走了过来，说道：“她刚才跑得跟兔子似的，这会儿一松劲儿，这种娇小姐，一遇这事儿，不晕倒才怪呢。大哥，把她交给我。”杨开泰把郭冰雪抱起来：“你抱不动她。我们得赶快离开这个地方。把我的马牵过来。”周银杏把杨开泰的马牵过来，杨开泰先把郭冰雪放在马上，自己也上了马，把郭冰雪搂在怀里。周银杏见此情景，心中觉得堵得慌，就大声叫道：“搜完没有，别磨磨蹭蹭，快上马。” 马蹄的振动让郭冰雪醒了过来，恍惚中觉得自己好像靠在一个人身上，被一种陌生的、男性的气味包围着，她睁开眼睛，扭过头去，正好看到杨开泰关切的眼神，脸一红，挣脱着要下马。杨开泰微微一笑，“郭小姐，你醒了。”拉住马缰绳，跳下马，扶着郭冰雪道：“来，我扶你下马。”把一个水壶递过来，“喝点水吧。”郭冰雪喝了几口水，“谢谢你救了我。你，你们不是当新四军了吗？怎么？”杨开泰不愿细说，支吾道：“草莽野汉，受不了那个拘束。你怎么一个人在山里转？”郭冰雪也不愿讲实话，遮掩着：“我，我闲来无聊，随便出来转转，谁知道迷路了。”杨开泰关切地看着郭冰雪，“这里太危险了，你要去哪里，我送你去。”郭冰雪说了实话：“我要去太平镇。杨大哥，你不在新四军待了，是不是也要回太平镇？”杨开泰沉吟了一会儿，“太平镇早就没有我的立足之地了。我要回去，你那几个表哥还不把我给……这样吧，我把你送到去太平镇的官道上。那里就没土匪了。”周银杏突然间扑倒在地，用耳朵紧贴地面听了一会儿，跳起来喊：“大哥，是个商队，十五到二十匹马，还有一袋烟的路，干吧！”郭冰雪吃惊地看着杨开泰，“你，你们又当土匪了？这……”周银杏接道：“人总得吃饭吧？大哥，过了这个村，就没这个店儿了。不干，咱们这几个人，早晚是个死！”杨开泰看看山谷的地形，“干了！记着，不要伤人性命。银杏，你不参加，郭小姐归你保护。郭小姐，我本来就是土匪。银杏，快去。” 周银杏极不情愿地拉着郭冰雪躲了起来。杨开泰和另外七个人分两组占领了山谷两边的有利地形。驮着货物的马队慢慢进入深谷。走在前面探路的高连升看到大青石旁老白脸的尸体，大喊一声：“操家伙！”训练有素的伙计们掏出枪，迅速分成战斗小组和掩护小组。张世杰下了马，蹲在老白脸的尸体旁看了一会儿，拣起一个黄锃锃的子弹壳。高连升惊道：“勃朗宁？这枪可不常见。”张世杰站起来，“八成是杨大哥他们。没事了，继续走。”郭冰雪从大石头后面大声喊：“世杰——危险——有埋伏——张世杰——” 这突然的喊声惊得张世杰的人都下马趴在路两边。杨开泰边喊边走到路上，“张二少爷，我是杨开泰，我们来这里清理门户。”张世杰没想到会以这种方式和杨开泰再次相遇，跑向杨开泰，“大哥——”杨开泰指着郭冰雪说：“老白脸正在抢她，我们……她要回太平镇，交给你了。上马，回太白顶。”张世杰急忙过去抓住杨开泰的马缰，“大哥，谈谈行吗？紫云已经去了前线，你再上山……” “放手！”杨开泰翻身上马，“谁说上了山就不能打鬼子了？扯淡！没什么好谈的。走。”八匹马刹那间就跑得无影无踪。 郭冰雪笑吟吟地仔细看着张世杰，“亏得你手痒，在金竹沟伤了一个人，杀了两只鸟，要不，你也参加了新四军，这以后的日子可怎么过？”张世杰苦笑一下，“你这个天不怕地不怕的姑奶奶，你竟敢女扮男装一个人独闯金竹沟？还弄个全身而退。牵上你的马，走吧。金声，你负责保护郭小姐。还有七八十里，她要是出了事，可不得了。”郭冰雪上马叹了一声，“没办法。太平镇都闹翻了天。说，说朱家的老三把张家老二没过门的媳妇拐跑了。又说，说张家老二气不过，带着手枪队去追杀这一对狗男女。你说，我一听出了这种稀罕事，还能坐得住？朱国柱是跟你没法比，可他总还是我名义上的未婚夫吧？我不该追过来看个究竟？”张世杰瞪一眼郭冰雪，“编吧。十句话没两句是真的。这都三年了，就没听你在我面前说过一句他们的好话。你到底想干什么？”郭冰雪幽幽地说：“我想干什么你知道。我是不是编排你的未婚妻和我的未婚夫，你回太平镇，就知道了。哎，世杰，你也太自信了吧？你敢让紫云跟朱国柱一起混？”张世杰恼了，“混账话！他们原先是同学，现在是同志加战友。”郭冰雪银铃般的笑声顿时撑满了整条山谷，“首先他们俩是一个男人一个女人。朱国柱连我的手都没拉过，可他不是个太监呀。难道你是个睁眼瞎？看不出他喜欢的是你家紫云？” 高连升听不过了，接道：“郭小姐，说这些你不觉得太过分吗？”郭冰雪白了高连升一眼，“讲点规矩行不？主仆分不清，你还混什么？你就不怕万一我成了你家的二少奶奶，我会把你的臭嘴缝起来？”张世杰笑着接道：“这是不可能的。你们让参议员的千金说个够。小雪……”郭冰雪惊讶地看着张世杰，“你叫我什么？再叫一遍？你是不是觉着我也挺可爱的？世杰，你是个复杂的男人，不是个痴情男人。我跟杨紫云风格不同……”张世杰打断道：“够了！你的直白真让人受不了！”一拍马背蹿了出去。 郭冰雪不依不饶，“朱国柱要是没爱上杨紫云，我这郭字倒着写。张世杰，你太惯着你那小爱人了。让她一个人参军，是步臭棋，臭不可闻！”张世杰跑出一箭之地，郭冰雪的话还是字字诛心。他真的不想考虑自己和杨紫云关系的另一种可能性。自从加入共产党，他只想保存爱情这一份私有财产了。
