Chapter 28 Chapter Twenty Eight

Guo Songling, who had been silent all the time, said angrily: "You still haven't pleaded guilty at this time? Pull him out and chop him up!" Chuanwu grabbed Liu Gener's neck and asked, "Liu Gener, did you really do it? Really?" Liu Gener Said: "Company commander, I am the son of shopkeeper Liu of the grocery store, and I want revenge!" Guo Songling said: "Our Northeast Army is the soldiers of the people in the Northeast, and our mission is to protect the environment and the people! We are not bandits! The people are uneasy, and the crime cannot be pardoned!" Zheng TuanZhang said: "Commander Zhu, you are negligent in management, and the military discipline of your subordinates is lax..." Guo Songling interrupted him and asked Chuanwu: "You are Zhu Chuanwu? You are famous, have you passed the customs? " Chuanwu said: "I came from outside the pass, and I also entered the pass to fight Duan Qirui." Guo Songling nodded slightly, and asked the head of Zheng: "In Ba County, who commanded a platoon to cover the safe retreat of the whole regiment? He?" The head of the regiment Zheng said yes, and Guo Songling said: "Pick up your things and follow me later, and be my deputy captain of the guard." Chuanwu nodded while trying to speak for Liu Gen'er, and the head of the regiment Zheng shouted: "You don't know Anyway, Deputy Commander Guo will give you a chance because of your old military achievements. He, Liu Gener, defeated our army, and his crime will not be pardoned!" Liu Gener said with a serious face: "Company commander, please take good care of my parents, Liu Gener is very grateful " Guo Songling saw it in his eyes and said: "He is a man! I will explain to your parents, but your death penalty is inevitable!"

In the front hall of Zhu's restaurant, there were many customers, and the waiters were delivering wine and food to each table.Chuanwen came in from the back room with a piece of red paper dipped in paste, and pasted it on the wall. The paper read: "Take the essence of the Manchu and Han feasts, and integrate the characteristics of local flavors. This restaurant offers Manchu and Han Chengxiang, a new and old restaurant. Customers taste it. Thirty-six cold dishes, seventy-two hot dishes..." Chuanwu came in and saw it, and said to his elder brother: "Ah, it's so lively!" Chuanwenle said: "The second one is back! Hurry up go inside."

Zhu Chuanwu was about to step over the threshold when Nawen caught up.Chuanwu stopped and said, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter?" Nawen said shyly, "Well, what's wrong with sister-in-law, please bear with me." Chuanwu was confused by her words and asked: "I Just came back, what did you ask me to take care of?" Nawen said: "Let's talk, it's not all my fault, Xiu'er is too careless, you say you are so bad, you should pay attention to yourself... ..." Chuanwu said, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?" The text said: "However, she is very good now, Xiaoyuezi is also a confinement, I have served her until she is fat and white." Zhu Chuanwu was stunned and said: "Xiaoyuezi?" The text said: " I also know that it is not easy for your daughter-in-law to conceive a child, but in time..." Chuanwu said: "What? She is pregnant?" Nawen said: "Ah, miscarriage... What's wrong? You don't know Is she pregnant?" Chuanwu gritted his teeth angrily.Coincidentally, Xiu'er came into the courtyard with a large basin of freshly washed clothes, ready to dry them.Chuanwu angrily walked to her side.Xiuer happily said, "You're back?" Chuanwu said with a livid face, "Go back to the house!" The smile on Xiuer's face froze, and she asked, "What's the matter? What happened?" Chuanwu pressed She said in a low voice, "Are you listening? Go back to the house!" Xiu'er had no choice but to follow Chuan Wu back to the house in a daze.When Nawen saw it, he made a calculation in his heart, suddenly understood everything, secretly called "no", and hurriedly ran to the mother-in-law's room.

In the room, Chuanwu glared at Xiu'er, who was at a loss and said, "What are you doing? I've been nagging you since I came back, and I didn't mess with you. I didn't pierce that little cloth man again, so I threw it away... Chuanwu said: "Don't talk about it! Get out of our old Zhu's house immediately!" Xiu'er said: "What's wrong with me? You let me go?" Chuanwu said: "What did you do yourself? You know? In the past, I was sorry for you, but today I will save face for you. Pack your own bag, go quietly, and slip away. Don’t embarrass our old Zhu family!"

Xiu'er said: "Who shamed your old Zhu family?" Chuanwen said: "Do you still have to let me tell you?" Xiu'er said: "Say it! Say it!" Chuanwen said: "Well, I I’m asking you, I’ve never touched you, right? Then how did you get pregnant? Who did you get pregnant with?” Xiu’er said, “Where am I pregnant?” Chuanwen said, “You still want to deceive me? You have a miscarriage, and my sister-in-law has served you!" Xiu'er said, "Oh my mother, I can't wash it off even if I jumped into the Yellow River!" Wen Ta Niang opened the door and came in and said, "There's nothing you can't wash! Xiu'er, don't be afraid of him, I'm here!" Chuan Wu said, "Mother, don't worry about our affairs." Wen Ta Niang said: "I don't care! What are you doing? When you come back, you act wild? You're screaming, you're against the sky!" Chuanwu said, "Mother, you don't know, she..." His mother Wen said, "I don't know anything. ? I know you are not a thing! Xiu'er is my good daughter-in-law!" Chuanwu was anxious, but couldn't speak.

His mother Wen said, "What's the matter with her? Isn't she pregnant?" Chuanwu was deeply surprised by his mother's calm words, and said, "Mother, she, she is pregnant, what did you do to her? She is not pregnant with my child!" His wife Wen said, "I know it's not your child." Chuanwu was even more astonished.Wen Ta Niang said: "It's a small pillow!" After speaking, she couldn't help laughing. Chuanwu was stunned and said, "What? A little pillow?" Wen Tanny said, "I made Xiu'er pretend to be pregnant with your child." Chuanwu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Mom, you are..." Wen Tannyang was serious Said: "I am complaining for Xiu'er! Do you know that? You neglected her, and the sisters-in-law laughed at her. She felt wronged, and felt that the dwarves were half-headed. Wouldn't you like me to make up a little play for her to enjoy? Xiu'er should be named It's your daughter-in-law, but you put her...you, what can you say about you..." Xiu'er threw her head into Wen's arms and choked up.

It was a rare family reunion at night, so Zhu Kaishan raised his wine bowl and said, "Come on, the second child is back, our whole family hasn't been together so neatly for a long time, let's have a drink—all of you!" Chuan Wu said, "Father, mother, When I come to Guanli this time, I might come back sometime, I will offer a toast to the two elders, and wish them a long and healthy life!" Zhu Kaishan said: "We are doing well, and we are worried about you." Wen Ta Niang said: "Yes, this Why do you fight all the time? It’s frightening, can you still live a life?” Zhu Kaishan said: “It’s true, Marshal Zhang, the Northeast is so big, it’s not enough.”

After Chuanwu finished drinking, he poured another cup, held it up and said, "Big brother, third brother, sister-in-law, younger siblings, I am an unfilial son, thank you for being filial for me!" Nawen said, "Oh, we didn't do anything; Even if you do it, you should be rewarded!" Chuanjie said to Chuanwen: "Brother, do you see that the second brother is different from before, he has become a talking man!" Chuanwu drank up the wine and wanted to sit down. His mother Wen said, "Hey, you haven't respected your daughter-in-law yet!" Xiu'er hurriedly said, "Mother, I don't need to respect you." Are you missing an arm or a leg?" Chuanwu said: "A family, what do you respect?" Zhu Kaishan said: "We are not a family? Don't you all respect me?" Wen Ta Niang said: "The second There is nothing wrong with saying this, the couple close the door, it is a small family, it is a family. Hey, second child, I have to stay at home tonight." Chuanwu said with a look of embarrassment: "No, the team will leave in the middle of the night. Let’s go, I have to leave in a while.” Wen’s mother was upset and said: “Isn’t this home? He left before his butt was warm?” Xiu’er whispered: “Mom, let him go, the official status is not good. It's up to you." The whole family was silent for a while.

After dinner, Xiu'er sent Chuanwu to the gate of the courtyard. Chuanwu said: "Go back, don't send it away, you are a fool." Xiu'er nodded.Chuanwu said again: "Xiu'er, I'm so sorry for you today, I'm too..." Xiu'er said with tears in her eyes, "Stop talking, I shouldn't have yelled at you like that that night." Chuanwu said: " I don’t blame you, it’s mine. Fortunately, my mother loves you, so I’m relieved.” Xiu’er wiped the corner of her eyes and said, “Be careful when you’re fighting!” Chuanwu nodded, and gave him a rare pat Xiu'er's shoulder, then turned and disappeared into the night.

Master Pan Wu was drinking tea when Shopkeeper Yu and Shopkeeper Ge came in.Shopkeeper Yu asked: "Master Wu, when will the boss's goods come back?" Pan Wuye said: "It's time to come back, it will take a while." Shopkeeper Ge said: "Our businessmen in Rehe are very anxious. They are all waiting for the boss’s goods. The old Zhu’s goods are sold back and forth one after another, why can’t the boss get it back?” Pan Wuye said: “This time, I let him bypass Erlong Mountain. It must be fine.” Shopkeeper Ge said, “It’s good that it’s fine.” As soon as the words fell, Boss Pan stumbled in and said, “Father, this guy can’t leave!” Fifth Master Pan said, “Ah? Robbed?" Boss Pan said: "Then Zhensanjiang is looking at our house, why can't we hide it. He asked me to send you a message, don't make trouble with the Zhu family." Pan Wu was so angry that he dropped his tea bowl, Said: "I don't listen to that evil!" Shopkeeper Yu said: "Haven't we punished him several times? But we can't suppress him!" Pan Wuye said: "If you can't suppress him, he will They're going to crush us. They're going to suppress us, just like they suppressed the old Liu's family back then!"

Several people dressed as businessmen walked into the Shandong restaurant.Chuanwen hurried forward, gave up his seat and poured tea and asked enthusiastically, "Sir, what do you want to eat?" One of the fat people said, "I heard that some dishes in your Shandong restaurant are quite famous, and we came here just for their fame." Yes." Chuanwen said: "Thank you a few. The small shop has a name, and it all depends on everyone's care." The fat man said: "Shopkeeper, you are welcome. Tell me about your dishes." Chuanwen said: "The special dish of the shop is beef with Zhuji sauce..." The fat man said: "Here is a plate." Chuanwen said Said: "There are Luwei live phoenixes." A bearded man said: "Live phoenixes? This is fresh, let's try it." Chuanwen said: "Want to eat fish? We still have more than enough." The thin man said: "No fish can't make a banquet! If you are rich and have more than enough, this name is also auspicious. Put one on, and put on the big one!" Chuanwen was overjoyed. When he met the rich man, he said with a smile on his face, "Then there will be Man and Han Chengxiang." The fat man said, "Man and Han Chengxiang, yo! It's even bigger than a full banquet of Man and Han!" Chuanwen Wen said: "I just want to make a name for the dish. It's no match for a full banquet." The thin man pointed to the red paper on the wall and said, "Good guy, there are one hundred and eight hot and cold dishes!" The fat man said: "The shopkeeper Yes, one hundred and eight dishes can’t be eaten today, and another day. If you do this today, I’ll pick what you’re good at and add seven more.” Asked a few more people: “How many brothers, ten dishes , okay?" Several people nodded.Chuanwen asked: "Several shopkeepers, do you need to go to the private room?" One person said: "No, this is so bright. Let's go to the dishes!" After a while, the food and wine were served, and several people chatted while eating and tasting.The fat man said: "Well, this dish tastes really good." The bearded man said: "No wonder it is so famous, it's not just bragging, it's really good!" The thin man asked the diners at the next table: "Hey, you are regular customers. Right?" The guest at the next table said: "We are from this street, we always come here." The thin man said: "You are really lucky to have such a good restaurant. From now on, we will come here often." Chuanwen brought another plate of dishes and said, "I'll give you some extra dishes." The fat man said, "You're welcome, shopkeeper. Come on, settle the bill." Chuanwen said, "No hurry, no hurry." The bearded man poked a man lying on the table and said, "Hey, grandpa, you are the host today, it's time to pay the bill." The grandpa just didn't move.The man with the beard said: "What's the matter? You want to renege on your debt? Grandpa." The thin man said: "Has he drunk too much?" The fat man said: "No, he has a lot of alcohol." Why don't you help him to lie down in the backyard first?" The fat man said it was fine, and he went to help him, he lifted Grandpa's head, and Grandpa rolled his eyes!Chuanwen was so frightened that his heart was beating fast, and he hurriedly asked: "What's the matter, are you sick?" The fat man put his hand into Grandpa's nostrils, jumped up, and shouted: "You're eating dead people! Your food is poisonous! " With this yell, people hula came up, and Zhu's family hurried out.Zhu Kaishan said: "Brothers, don't argue first, the important thing is to send the person to the hospital." He asked Chuanwen to take the money, and together with the bearded man, he asked the clerk to prepare a car and take the person to the hospital. The few people who remained stayed with Zhu's family and quarreled. Only Zhu Kaishan sat on a stool smoking a pipe with his brows furrowed.The text said: "Why do you say that we died of drugs? Aren't you all well?" The thin man said: "He caught up, but we didn't catch up—ah, you still want to drug us all to death?" Wen Ta Niang said: "We don't know you either. We have no grudges with you in the past, and we have no grudges in recent days. What are you doing when you die from medicine?" One person said: "No matter what you say, people die from eating your food!" Xiu'er said "Don't lie, he has other diseases!" The man said, "He's not sick, he's been fine!" The text said, "You said he was fine, who saw it?" The fat man shouted Said: "Stop arguing! What's the matter with the seniority of women. Didn't the shopkeeper of his house send Grandpa to the hospital with our people? Let's talk about it when they come back!" Zhu Kaishan knocked on the soot and said: "This Brother is right, you women have nothing to do here, go back to the back room and stay here!" His mother Wen, Na Wen, and Xiu'er left angrily. Chuanwen looked frustrated, and crowded into the room with the bearded man.The fat man asked the bearded man, "How is grandpa?" The bearded man said, "Dead, sent to the hospital morgue." The fat man said, "How did you die?" "You let him speak for himself!" Zhu Kaishan said: "Tell me! Just say what's going on!" Chuanwen said: "Father, the doctor said that he died of food poisoning!" The fat man said: "What are you talking about this time?" Chuanwen said Said: "Well, what the hell is going on here? Alas, what a fucking bad luck!" Zhu Kaishan said to Chuanwen: "Since the matter is settled, don't groan." The fat man said: "Yeah, it's useless, what should I do?" Zhu Kaishan said, "The sky is falling and the ground is still standing, so you can do whatever you want—tell me." The fat man said, "Losing money!" Zhu Kaishan said, "How much?" The fat man said, "Five thousand dollars!" Chuanwen gasped and said, "What? Five thousand dollars?" He thought for a while and said, "Okay! Five thousand is five thousand! I’ll pay him for everything!” The skinny man said, “You still have to send grandpa in hemp and filial piety!” Chuanwen said, “This won’t work…” Zhu Kaishan said, “Yes!” The fat man said: "You can do it, but I can't!" Chuanwen said angrily, "What else do you want?" Zhu Kaishan said to Chuanwen, "You let him talk!" The fat man said, "You Zhu family get out of this street from now on!" !" Zhu Kaishan couldn't bear it anymore and said: "My Zhu family will never leave this street! Even if I beg for food, I will ask for it on this street! I also carry a dog-beating stick!" A coffin was placed in front of the Shandong restaurant, and a coffin was set up.The monks chanted sutras, the sounders played and beat, and some people knelt in front of the coffin and wept.The restaurant had to put up a sign that it was closed.The fat man said to the onlookers: "My fellow villagers, the old Zhu's family set up a restaurant to make money and kill themselves, and even poisoned the dishes. My brother was poisoned and died. But he, the Zhu family, didn't care about it. If I don’t give it, I’m still messing around. My brother left orphans, widows, mothers, old fathers and sick mothers. It’s really unbearable every day, and the earth is not working. Ask the Zhu family, where is the law of heaven and where is the conscience?” Zhu Kaishan stood in front of the window, frowned and looked out the window.Chuanwen sighed at the side and said: "Father, why don't we go!" Zhu Kaishan roared: "I said, no one is allowed to mention words!" Chuanjie said: "Father, it is impossible, we This restaurant won’t be open.” Zhu Kaishan said: “If it doesn’t open, wouldn’t that prove that there are ghosts in our house?” Chuanjie said: “I can’t let them keep making trouble like this.” Zhu Kaishan said: "In the past two days, I think these people are weird. What do you mean by carrying the coffin up during the day and taking it away at night?" Mrs. Wen said, "Yes! What is he tossing about? "Zhu Kaishan said: "There must be a ghost here! If there is a ghost, you can't do without that Fifth Master Pan!" Xiu'er said: "This is really bad! Get a dead ghost to blackmail us, and put a coffin on us all day long. Scolding us, bullying our old Zhu family, there is no one left!" Zhu Kaishan said: "This time, I will make a fool of him in public. Tomorrow, the whole family will fight for me, the inn guys, and the restaurant waiters will all be summoned by me. ! The boil doesn’t come out, I want to squeeze out the pus!” Zhu Kaishan went straight to Pan Wuye's house after leaving the door, and said to Pan Wuye, "My old Zhu, please ask my brother to be a peacemaker this time, okay?" Should I talk about peace?" Zhu Kaishan said: "Yes, brother, you have the most face in this street, and I can't think of another person to come, so please take care." Pan Wuye said: " I've just heard about this, what's wrong with it, why did people get killed?" Zhu Kaishan said: "That's right, I can't come to beg your brother if it's a small matter. On this street, I walk with you the most frequently, so you have to help me, it’s good for you to show your face, give my brother my face.” Pan Wuye said: “I’ll give you face, I’ll give you face. They don’t necessarily give me face.” Zhu Kaishan said, “Brother, as long as you tell them, I’ll take care of whatever happens.” Pan Wuye said, “Okay, I’ll try—but I’ll try. Try, but it has nothing to do with me." Zhu Kaishan said: "Of course, I can only thank you." The two followed each other to the front of the restaurant, still surrounded by a bunch of people, in a mess.Among the crowd were Xiaokangzi, the guys from the warehouse, and a few waiters from the restaurant.Zhu Kaishan asked Pan Wuye to give some advice to the fat man, and entered the hospital by himself.Mrs. Wen asked him: "The head of the house, why do you need to take the guy?" Zhu Kaishan said, "You are really serious, you are not afraid of big troubles!" Mrs. Wen said, "These two days have suffocated me! " Zhu Kaishan said: "You don't need to take anything, you just need to grab their people." Wen Ta Niang said: "Okay." Walking to the backyard, she shouted, "Old family, the second family's family, the third family's family. Put down the rolling pin, kitchen knife, etc." Chuanjie said: "My mother is really good!" Zhu Kaishan said: "Of course, could it be your mother?" After a while, Pan Wuye led the fat man and other troublemakers and said to Zhu Kaishan: "Brother, I have said everything for you, and I invited them too." Zhu Kaishan said: "Thank you brother." The fat man said: "Since the fifth master has come forward, we can't reject it. Let's just give one thousand money, and you don't need to send it. But you have to leave this street." Zhu Kaishan said to Pan Wuye: "Brother, your face is really not small." Pan Wuye said: "Human life is at stake. It is best to settle it in private. Brother, in my opinion, let's do what they want." Zhu Kaishan said: " Our Zhu family has really left this street since then?" Fifth Master Pan put on a look of helplessness and said: "If the government is alarmed, your Zhu family will be imprisoned! Take a step back, and the sea and the sky will be brighter, brother, where will you go? Don’t make a fortune!” Zhu Kaishan said, “Thank you brother for showing me a way out for the Zhu family. In fact, let’s go, I just can’t bear you, brother!” Then he said to the fat man, “Let’s do it, brother, these two days You have worked hard enough, I will apologize to that dead friend and apologize again!" Almost all the people on the street flocked to the door of Shandong Restaurant, including Wen Ta Niang, Na Wen, Xiu Er, and Yu Shu.Zhu Kaishan came out from the house, followed by Chuanwen and Chuanjie.Zhu Kaishan clasped his fists at the people in front of the door and said: "Neighbors, young and old, thank you for your concern for our Zhu family. Today, in front of everyone, I will work hard for the people in the coffin!" In front of the shed, he lifted the lid of the coffin. The person lying in the coffin sat up at once, jumped out of the coffin and said, "Grandma, you're suffocating me!" A living person jumped out of the coffin, and the onlookers thought they had cheated on the corpse, so they rushed out timidly. Run away, and when I heard the man speak, I understood what was going on, and immediately seemed to blow up the battalion, saying: "Isn't this a bear man?" "Bastards are doing such immoral things!" You bastard!" Fatty and those people were a little panicked.Zhu Kaishan asked Pan Wuye, "Why did this happen? Brother, what should we do?" Pan Wuye opened his mouth, turned his head and left, and was blocked by Xiaokangzi and others.The fat man shouted: "Pan Wuye, don't leave." The thin man said: "Fifth Lord, what are we going to do when you leave?" Zhu Kaishan scolded the group and said, "Don't drag Pan Wuye! What does this matter have anything to do with Master Pan!" The fat man said: "Old shopkeeper, we only listened to Master Pan to do this." Fifth Master Pan turned around, stared at them fiercely and said, "Stop fucking! "Zhu Kaishan said: "Yes, don't be bloody, I invited the fifth master to make peace, and I have to thank him!" Instigate..." Zhu Kaishan said: "Fart! Wuye Pan is my brother and my friend, how could he do such a vile thing to me? It's easy for you to settle today's matter. Stand up for me first!" Those people stood up.Zhu Kaishan said: "In front of the neighbors, let me say something, and you guys say something to me." The fat man said: "Hey, let's talk." Zhu Kaishan said: "We come here to play wild and blackmail people." Those people muttered Said: "We come here to play wild and blackmail people." Zhu Kaishan said: "Speak louder!" Several people said loudly: "We come here to play wild and blackmail people." Zhu Kaishan said: "And Pan Wuye It has nothing to do with it at all." The few people said: "It has nothing to do with Pan Wuye." Pan Wuye cursed quietly and said: "A bunch of trash!" The front-line headquarters of the Nine Gates of the Shanhaiguan Battlefield is located next to a ruined temple on the mountain.Guns and guns were rumbling in the distance, and Chuanwu was lying behind a boulder, looking ahead with a telescope.Guo Songling came over and leaned beside him.Chuanwu scolded: "Fucking stupid! Didn't go up again!" Guo Songling took the binoculars and looked forward.Chuanwu said, "I'm really itchy. It doesn't matter much. If you give me a platoon, I'll go around behind the woods and definitely take it down." Guo Songling put down the binoculars, stared at Chuanwu and said, "Really?" Chuanwu said, "Pinch it with your hand!" Guo Songling said, "Okay, you bring the guards up!" Chuanwu said, "How can we do that? It is to protect you and the headquarters." Guo Songling said: "If you shoot it down, it is the best defense!" Chuanwu couldn't hold back his excitement and said: "Then I will go?" Guo Songling said: "Go Let's go! But only one casualty is allowed!" Chuan Wu stood up with a smile and said, "That's me!" Guo Songling looked at Chuan Wu lovingly, and waved his hand and said, "Go." Chuanwu led the guards into the woods.Dodging and moving, people have reached the front of the straight army. A machine gunner is shooting wildly, overwhelming the guards to lift their heads. Seeing an opportunity to cover, Chuanwu raised his hand and shot the machine gunner. The military guards took the opportunity to rush up the hill. Guo Songling lay behind the boulder, watching and nodding, not even noticing that Commander Zhang Xueliang came to him, Zhang Xueliang's adjutant coughed twice, Guo Songling stood up and saluted quickly and said: "Young commander, why are you here?" Zhang Xueliang said: " If we don’t take down the Nine Gates, we won’t be able to enter the gate!” Guo Songling said, “I’ve cast the guards up.” Zhang Xueliang said, “Mao Chen, have you reached this point?” Guo Songling said, “The guards are idle every day, It's time to train soldiers. Zhu Chuanwu is really good! Go up!" Zhang Xueliang took Guo Songling's binoculars and said, "Let me see. I've heard of him and he can fight." Guo Songling said, "He seems to be born a soldier. I have to take him well." Zhang Xueliang said excitedly with his palms on Shi : "Okay! Take it down! This kid, yes!" Guo Songling said: "If this bone is gnawed off, we will enter the customs!" Zhang Xueliang returned the telescope to Guo Songling and said, "Maochen, this time we have entered the customs." What do you think?" Guo Songling said: "Young commander, I hope you don't fight again." Zhang Xueliang looked up to the sky and sighed: "Oh, fate is hard to escape..." The war was temporarily suspended, and Guo Songling had a rare leisure time. He asked Chuanwu to drive to the countryside to relax. They walked up a high slope, and as far as the eye could see, there was a sea of ​​green.Guo Songling said: "This place is similar to Daoyitun in the north of Fengtian City in my hometown." Then he asked Chuanwu, "Chuanwu, have you heard from home recently?" , The family doesn’t care about me.” Guo Songling said, “I don’t care about my daughter-in-law?” Chuanwu smiled wryly. Guo Songling said: "Hey, last year, before entering the customs, you pleaded for a few deserters. What did you say? You said that they were not deserters, but they just didn't want to enter the customs to fight—is that true?" Chuanwu said "Yes." Guo Songling said, "Did you think the same way?" Chuanwu said, "I thought for them. The first time we beat Cao Kun and Wu Peifu, we killed so many brothers in Changxindian. There are bloody corpses all over the place, and my heart hurts. My family is in the Northeast, why is my life here? I am a person who doesn’t care about anything, but they are not. A brother shouted to me before he died: Brother, put my Send the bones back to the cemetery of my hometown." Guo Songling said: "The purpose of being a soldier is to fight, but why? , Jiang Dengxuan, and they became the officials of the frontier—the warden, how many bloods of soldiers!" Chuanwu said: "Deputy Commander, everyone said that the old Zhang family treated you well." The Zhang family has made great contributions. But I am not a dog raised by his family, I am a soldier of the country! A soldier of the Northeast Army!" Chuanwu was infected and said: "Deputy Commander, you are right, we should be soldiers of the country, the Northeast Army It’s a soldier, not a dog raised by some family!” The two walked for a while in silence.Guo Songling said: "Chuan Wu, have you ever heard someone call me behind my back?" Chuan Wu smiled and didn't answer.Guo Songling said: "Yes, Guo Guizi. Call me a ghost—if you praise me, it means that I am smart; if you scold me, it means that I am extremely treacherous. In fact, they don't know me. Those who know me , only the young marshal. What you just said is half right. It’s not that the old Zhang family treats me well, but the young marshal treats me kindly—the kindness of knowing you! The young marshal trusts me and entrusts his troops to my management Yes, this also proves that he and I have the same thoughts. He is different from his old man. The old man is selfish and resorts to military affairs, exhausting the people in the Northeast and causing wars for years. The young man is much better than him, and Shuai has the country, the people, and the feeling of hometown in his heart. If the young commander is in charge of the Northeast, it must be a different look." Guo Songling faced the earth, hunting the wind, blowing towards his face, he felt no sadness, and chanted: "Ten years of fighting between heaven and earth have caused great pain for the people all over the world. Where there is no one in the world, I am afraid that it will not be possible to repay the hearts of the martyrs." Zhu Chuanjie was ordering goods with Xiaokangzi, when he saw Master Zhang Duo coming in, he hurriedly called out, "Father, are you here?" Master Zhang Duo said, "Chuanjie, come to my place tonight." Xiao Kangzi said to Chuanjie, "That's strange." Master Duo called you big!" Chuanjie said: "Father, what's the matter?" Master Zhang Duo said: "What's wrong? Why don't you come and see me if you have nothing to do?" Chuanjie said: "Okay, I Bring some food and wine." Master Zhang Duo said, "No, I'll prepare it for you." Xiao Kangzi said, "Master Duo, I'll go too." Master Zhang Duo said, "I have something to say to Chuanjie, you How old are you?" Xiao Kangzi stuck out his tongue.Master Zhang Duo walked out, Chuanjie said: "Father, I will go with you." Master Zhang Duo said: "I will go to the street to buy clothes, and you will go later." Xiao Kangzi said in a low voice : "This old man, today is a bit weird..." There is a dining table on the kang, the food on the table has been placed, and the wine has been hot.Master Zhang Duo sat cross-legged at the table, staring at the food and drink, motionless.Chuanjie pushed the door in with the food and drink, and said, "Father, are you really ready?" Master Zhang Duo said, "Let's get on the kang." Zhu Chuanjie got on the kang cross-legged, looked at the food and wine on the table, and said with a big appetite, "Ah, dad really has these two things, it's very delicious! The food and wine I brought you, I have to eat it tomorrow." Master Zhang Duo said: "Okay, then you will come again tomorrow. Come, eat." Chuanjie said: "I have to toast you first! Hey, Dad, have you bought clothes yet? ?” Master Zhang Duo said, “I bought it.” Chuanjie said, “Why don’t you put it on? Put it on and let me see.” Master Zhang Duo said: "It's not yet time. Come on, we two will do one first." After the two drank, Chuanjie filled up the wine again and said, "Father, if you have anything to say, just say it." Master Duo was silent for a while and said, "Do you know godfather's tuba size?" Chuanjie shook his head.Master Zhang Duo said: "Oh, it seems that your godfather has been a mess all his life, and he didn't even leave a name." Chuanjie said: "Really, Dad, what's your name?" Master Zhang Duo said: "My name is Zhang Deben. Deben, I have really deserved this name in my life. If I don't pay or earn, I will get a book." Zhu Chuanjie said: "How can I explain it like this? What? Godfather, if you get a book, then you have saved another book.” Master Zhang Duo said, “I don’t think so. I’ve been away for most of my life, and if I can keep a book—I, It’s just smoke from the ancestral grave. I can’t remember my mother. My mother died when I was two years old. My father and I also remember him as a poor man, a farmer who digs in the soil. He took me to Not long after Guandong Mountain, I vomited blood and died from the exhaustion of carrying a big man on my feet. I am not a good person, don’t you all call me Zhang Gudong? I am Gudong. I've played traitors and done bad things, all for my life, that is, for my capital! I don't save, I don't keep it, I spend it when I have it, and I try to earn it when I don't have it. I'm not greedy, as long as I have enough capital. Now, I am just a book." Chuanjie said: "You still have my godson." Master Zhang Duo said: "So, knowing you, I have collected rent in this life—a profit!" Zhu Chuanjie said: "Father, you Let go of my interest again, rolling interest! In the future, don’t follow the caravan—don’t be unwilling to listen, after all, you are old, and I’m pretty familiar with the things on the road. I'll build you a house." Master Zhang Duo said, "Then I'm still called Zhang Deben?" Chuanjie said, "Then I'm called Zhang Deli." Then he joked, "I want to give you Shall I find a godmother? If you want me to help you." Master Zhang Duo said: "Stinky boy! For me, just enough money is enough. Chuanjie, remember what your godfather said, you have to keep your capital at all times!" Chuanjie said: "That's right, lose all your money, Then why do you do something?" Master Zhang Duo said, "You have to come tomorrow!" Chuanjie said, "Come on, I have to clean up the food and drinks I brought with you." Master Zhang Duo said, "I'll leave early in the morning. Come." Chuanjie said, "Early in the morning?" Master Zhang Duo said, "Yes, early in the morning, bring a few more people." Chuanjie asked, "What are you doing?" Master Zhang Duo said, "When the time comes, you will Got it. Come on, have a drink! Let me thank you first." Chuanjie said, "Thank me for what?" Master Zhang Duo said, "Go ahead and drink." The two drank the wine. Early the next morning, Chuanjie remembered Duo Ye's words, and led Xiao Kangzi and a few gangsters to the door of Zhang Duo Ye's house, and saw that one of the door panels was missing.Chuanjie was puzzled, looked into the room, and froze in horror—on the kang, Mr. Zhang Duo was wearing a new black shroud, lying straight on the door panel. This old man who had driven stacks all his life drove himself to the end of his life . Chuanjie erected a new grave on the luxuriant mass grave.There are offerings and spiritual streamers in front of the grave.Chuanjie and Yushu knelt in front of the grave wearing heavy filial piety, burning paper with tears streaming down their faces.Holding a handful of tobacco leaves in his hand, Zhu Kaishan said: "Brother Deben, I brought you Yabuli tobacco leaves..." The fireworks of burning paper rose, and Zhu Kaishan twisted the tobacco leaves into the fire. A chauffeur sang: The sea is rough, and the waves hit the rocks.Guo Songling and Zhu Chuanwu looked far away from the shore, but they couldn't see the land of China on the other side.Guo Songling said: "Have you never been to Japan?" Zhu Chuanwu said: "Never." Guo Songling said: "This time the Japanese Army Ministry invited us to visit their military exercises. Do you know what it means?" Zhu Chuanwu said: "Show off." Hey. The little devil is not a good cake!" Guo Songling said: "Shock! Japan has always had ambitions for China, especially for our Northeast. But our old man is still colluding with the Japanese." Zhu Chuanwu said: "Collusion?" Guo Songling said: "The day before yesterday, the Japanese army staff officer Akutagawa from the headquarters came to me. This Akutagawa was not an ordinary person in their staff department. He asked me, did he sign the secret agreement on behalf of Zhang Zuolin? He hesitated and left. I just found out today that there is really a secret agreement! The old commander has sent Yu Chonghan as a plenipotentiary representative, on the condition of recognizing 21, in exchange for Japanese money and arms to attack the National Revolution Army! What is this? This is an act of treason!" Zhu Chuanwu said: "Marshal Zhang betrayed the country?" Guo Songling said: "The country is in such a precarious state, and he still does such a shameless thing, how can the people of the country tolerate him! If Zhang Zuolin beats the people Revolutionary Army, I will beat him!" Guo Songling's wife, Han Shuxiu, hurried over and said, "Maochen, the commander-in-chief has called and asked you to return home immediately."
