Age of Rebirth

Chapter 8 In Troubled Times ([-]) (This chapter is free)

I heard them talk about the current chaotic world. It has been almost a year since the establishment of "Manchukuo". , but can the current Manchukuo compare with the previous Qing Dynasty?The emperor was sitting in the Forbidden City. Although the Qing Dynasty was not doing well, the country was weak and the people were poor, the great powers invaded, the land was ceded to pay compensation, the power was lost and the country was humiliated, but no matter what you say, you can still do something by yourself, but look again In Manchukuo now, there are Japanese behind it, can it be Puyi's turn to speak?What the Japanese want to say is also what the Japanese want to say, but they borrowed his name and his mouth to look better. In fact, there is nothing easy to say. If you want to say, the emperor has been here until now. For the sake of it, it's also useless enough.

I heard from Uncle Zhang that the eldest son of the old Li family in the former village went to "Xinjing" (now Changchun City, the capital of Jilin Province, which was renamed Xinjing as the capital of Manchukuo at that time) and entrusted someone to strengthen him and entered the security guard. I became a policeman, and I came back some time ago. Hey, he was so energetic, his tail almost went up to the sky. Uncle Zhang and his father are brothers-in-law, so it is not too far away. That day Uncle Zhang went to Qiantun Asking for a bean curd tent, I happened to bump into that kid head-on, but he rolled his eyes and curled his mouth, pretending not to see me, and with a flick of his coat, those shiny riding boots kicked the snow on the ground straight away, and he walked away. Humans, that virtue is good enough for a good person to watch for half a month.

If in the past, when I saw me, I would come up to say hello from a long distance, and I would say "Uncle, Uncle", that kind of intimacy would be nothing to mention, just to pick some good tofu and give me his bad beans. , At that time, I was so angry that I didn’t want the tent, so I turned around and came back. I went home and lay down on the kang, and I was sulking for a long time. Alas, he thought he had a good job. I don’t know how many people there are in the village. People were poking his spine, saying that he was a traitor and worked for the Japanese, and the ancestral graves were full of smoke.

There is also my brother-in-law, who seems to have power, talking to neighbors, old neighbors, old neighbors, his voice is an octave higher, and he always says, compete with me, believe it or not, throw him into the police station , He was not like this before, he was quite a good person, how did he become like this?This gain, alas!What kind of world is this? He doesn't know what kind of world he is, when he is a traitor and a dog, he doesn't follow the good way, but he doesn't know. The people in the village talk about him behind his back, and they all point and point when he walks on the way. Awakening, thinking that nothing happened, if it was me, I would have no face to leave the house, I would have moved away, found a place where no one was around, and sneaked away! [

My second uncle said that he had a brother who was in command. He used to work in the Northeast Army and was a company commander. When I said that "Manchuria" recruited soldiers, I was tempted at that time. I didn't want to stay at home for a day, so I hurried to become a national soldier, and I also brought two guns along the way, which was appreciated by the Japanese. That's right, I got a battalion commander to do it. When I came back last month, I insisted on divorcing her wife.

We old buddies tried to persuade him at the wine table, but he was determined, and he kept praising the Japanese, saying that the Japanese are so powerful, those planes, those cannons, they went to sea, and sooner or later they took over the whole of China As far as China is concerned, it is not enough for the Japanese to pinch it. Lao Jiang can't bear it at all. This world will sooner or later belong to the Japanese. He also advises everyone to vote for the Japanese as soon as possible. Fugui also said that he was willing to attract everyone to the Japanese for the sake of his old buddies. I broke up unhappy, and when I got home, I was still on fire in my heart!

What his family is like, others don’t know, I don’t know yet, he used to run outside, sell things, make friends, earn two hands, tend crops indecently, the family’s father and mother would eat There was no meal, the poor was about to eat, and her wife didn't dislike him. At that time, his father-in-law's family disagreed with life and death, but his wife followed him with all her heart, and came to live with a burden. When I was working in the field, I was busy chatting about the house, and I changed the inside and outside of the house I picked up, and it changed. It’s okay to serve my father and mother. I also gave birth to two children for him, one boy. , when he was a child, he lived a prosperous life, and he was also new and up-to-date all day long, looking like a human being.

In our circle of buddies, there is no one who does not admire his wife. When it is mentioned, everyone gives a thumbs up, saying that he is a blessing from his previous life. If he is given such a good wife, if he is replaced by someone else, he will be like that. Willing to marry him.Later, when he was going to join the army, his daughter-in-law didn't say a word, she packed up and packed, and let him go to the team. She was the only one, serving the old, tidying up the young, paying the end of the second elder, and raising the children. big.No, once he became an official, he was still a traitor official, so he changed his mind, saying that the daughter of a wealthy family in Fengtian City fell in love with him, and he insisted on forcing his wife to divorce. Pooh, this is heartless thing.

I also asked someone to send me a message: "Second brother, you should also come to the team. This is delicious and spicy. There is food and drink, not to mention how comfortable it is. We have guns in our hands. Anyone will give us three points. With your ability, it's easy to get a team leader to do it, and then the brothers will be able to hang out with you." After hearing this, I didn't get too tired of mentioning it, so I didn't get angry, so I gave it to the person who talked As soon as he flew, he was kicked out of the house. If it wasn't for your younger siblings pulling him over, I would have killed him right then.

I said to the person who brought the words: "Go back and tell that crumpled only son. From now on, I, Tang Er, will not have a brother like him. From today onwards, I will break up with him. He will take his way, and I will take my single-plank bridge. When he is an official, I plant my land. The two have nothing to do with each other. I don’t care about food and drink. If he steps on a pile of shit, don’t drag me down. Tell him, don’t let Tang Er run into me. Broke his arms, legs, etc., get out! Take my words to that kid," "Brother, tell me, how can I befriend this guy? I'm blind and misjudged. I was careless in making friends." Up to now, my heart is still burning, as if I ate a fly, not to mention how disgusting it is.

After the second uncle finished speaking, he still shook his head, as if he was still angry, there was still an irrepressible anger in his eyes and tone. "They are all bloodless and without moral integrity. They hold the jobs of the Japanese, serve as dogs for the little devils, and are still jolting. The face of his ancestors has been completely humiliated."

He also mentioned that it is necessary to establish a maintenance committee in every village, to elect a president, and to pay taxes and so on, but there are many more than when Marshal Zhang was in power, and the names are lost. , as long as every household has male laborers, they have to go out on business, and they have to take turns recruiting strong men to serve as national soldiers. The days will be even more difficult in the future, but what a life!

Everyone was a little silent, no one said anything, and there were complex expressions on their faces, only the sound of "ba da, bata" smoking, and occasional coughing, and the smell of dry tobacco in the room became more and more intense When I got up, the turpentine oil lamp, which was not too bright, became even more dim, and the atmosphere seemed a little depressing, showing confusion and bewilderment about the current situation and the world, and a mentality that could not see the future and direction clearly. Nai and the fear hidden in the bottom of my heart.It is the fear of not being able to control one's own destiny.

I quietly listened to everyone's conversation and looked at the expressions on everyone's faces. I didn't need to interrupt, and they didn't carry me behind their backs. Don't worry, besides, the people in the house are all acquaintances who have known each other for many years and know each other well. They live in a village and know each other. Say what you want, say what you think of.

From their conversations, I understood the current situation and roughly understood the current situation. Although what they said was very general, some things did not understand the deeper truth. Second Uncle and the others may have never been out of the mountains in their entire lives, let alone a big city, so it is impossible to know too much about the environment they live in.

However, what they said were all things that happened around them, they were all real examples, and they also showed their current mentality. This is very important to me. I need to master these to determine my next plan. I used the information I saw in my previous life to confirm each other with my memory, and it became clear that this is exactly what I needed. Although my memory of my previous life has these materials, I can’t guarantee that in the real world, it will be true. It will be out of shape, and the more I know about the current world, the better it is for me.

I am a person who wants to do great things. Fighting and eliminating the Japanese devils is my only goal now. I will not be ambiguous about the environment I am in. Let me use my past memories to carry out my war of resistance. I don’t know how to adapt to local conditions. Changing strategies according to different circumstances is looking for death. Pigs, pigs are not that stupid, and it also insults my reputation as a special soldier of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. What a fart, if you hang yourself, you might as well wash your neck and wait for the little Japanese to chop it off.

Everyone was bored, and several people came into the room. The man went directly into the room, and the woman looked at me, and went to the kitchen to help.The people who came were all relatives, good friends, or neighbors of my father. Everyone had something in their hands, such as pheasants, hares, roe deer legs, sand spot chickens, and salted bracken. Mushrooms and other game or mountain products, and some take a few vermicelli noodles, some white noodles, etc., come and see me, this one strokes the head, that one holds hands, they are very close, and everyone is sincere. I was happy, and congratulated my dad one after another, some took paper cigarettes, and some chatted head to head.

My mother and my second aunt entered the room, took the things in everyone's hands, and kept expressing their thanks. It can be seen that my mother is very happy today, smiling from ear to ear, her face is shining, one is my The injury made her feel relieved. Second, seeing so many people came to see me. In addition to the relationship between my father and mother, there should be factors of my good popularity. In the Northeast, especially in the countryside, it is very important. these.

Another man, my name is Uncle Huang, said that his son and I have been close buddies since we were young, with multiple heads and different surnames. He simply brought a jar of wine, saying that he saved it last year, 65-degree sorghum. It's not easy to entrust someone to get the Erguotou from Liu's cooking pot. I haven't been willing to drink it all the time. It's stuck in the vegetable cellar. I took it out today, and everyone is very happy.Some joked: "Old Huang, why don't you be stingy? It's not easy to drink your wine. I've been thinking about it for more than a year. Once, I caught a rabbit and didn't catch it. I didn't drink it." I said it was for my son to marry a wife, why are you willing to take it out today?"

"That's different. Isn't today a good day? I caught up with Xiaoqiu and healed from my injury. I'm lucky. I'm fine. You don't know. When I heard that something happened to Xiaoqiu, I felt so nervous. Don't mention it too much." I'm sorry, today I saw that the child seemed to be okay, I'm so happy, everyone is so together again, besides, the big brothers of the old Tang family usually help everyone a lot, yes Let’s see, whoever’s family is in danger, and they didn’t lend a helping hand that time, everyone knows about these things, you say yes, I’m still reluctant to have a jar of wine?”

"That's the kid Xiaoqiu, who fell off such a high mountain and saved his life. This kid has a future. If you were to deal with this matter, his arms and legs would have been separated. The pit is buried, and there is still a matter of survival, let alone the big guys having a row and drinking together." After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. The men in Kanto are originally quick-talking, full of blood, so say what you want , there are very few people who are like gourds. The long winter and cold weather have created the unique living characteristics and speaking styles of the Kanto people.The room was a bit chaotic at the time, however, the originally depressing atmosphere came alive, and there was agility and happiness in the air, like flowers, plants and trees waking up from the long cold winter, exuding the breath of life.

It seems that my father and my uncle, together with our family, have a very high status, prestige and reputation in the village. This is my good foundation and strong conditions in the future. It seems that building my own team, There should be no problem, it depends on the quality of the person I'm looking for, and whether they can meet the requirements and standards of an absolutely powerful special soldier like me. [

"Sister-in-law, it's not ready yet. Everyone is hungry and the wine is hot. Serve some dishes first and drink first." The second uncle couldn't help shouting, "It will be ready soon, serve a few This dish, you drink first, second child, it’s not because everyone is hungry, it’s because your wine worms have crawled out of your throat again!” Mom and uncle joked, and others laughed when they heard it. Second Uncle, hey, there is no sign of embarrassment. It seems that the relationship between Mom and my uncles is quite harmonious. "Then quickly put the table and move the stools, pick up the bowls and chopsticks," the second uncle yelled, busy with his hands.

As soon as the door curtain was lifted, Sister Ling walked in with a large bowl of stewed river fish in sauce. Immediately, a strong fragrance permeated the whole room.

I smelled the fragrance, swallowed involuntarily, and felt a little hungry. God, I can't eat it!I'm going to be embarrassing again, I'm dizzy
