Chapter 108 Leopard Transformation
In view of the embarrassing scene at Ciro's yesterday, the couple got up and called some friends who were involved, and made an appointment at Xinya Cantonese Restaurant for lunch.
Lolita readily went, Zheng Li was very sensitive, and had already seen that Ning Zheng had opinions on her, so she declined; Bao Buqu remained silent for a moment, and agreed to attend, while Yang Liren came in a hurry.
Several friends met again and all looked at each other with a smile. Ning Zheng took the lead in toasting to apologize, saying that he was too impulsive last night and spoiled everyone's good time, and punished himself with a glass of apology; Drinking alcohol is safer, and we can only replace alcohol with tea. Forgive me, relatives and friends.Anyone who can do anything to him will naturally smile and expose it.
Bao Buqu's deep eyes stared at Feng Jiu who was sitting across from him. It was a pleasure for Feng Jiu to have the opportunity to reminisce with his old friend. She chatted with him with a smile. She knew that over the years, "the Bao family in the alley "In the hands of his eldest brother and him, his industry has grown continuously, spanning finance, transportation, mining and various industries. Only Mrs. Jiang's eldest brother-in-law, the Kong family, can compete with them.
But the reputation of the Bao family is much better than that of the Kong family, probably because the principle of the Bao family's business is to make a fortune for themselves, but it will not cut off other people's way; the Kong family is recognized as greedy - under the protection of Mr. Jiang After less than ten years of development, countless private capitals have been strangled, and big and small money must be held in their hands. Even small businesses such as matches, Chinese medicinal materials, and even the purchase of pig bristles from the Central Plains and Northwest Regions for export to Europe and the United States are difficult. Don't let go.
During the dinner, Feng Jiu saw that everyone present except Bao Buqu was married, so it was inevitable to ask about his marriage; when Ning Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel at ease. Pinch his thigh to calm him down.Yang Liren said with a playful smile: "What's wrong with being single, how comfortable you are. Men are not afraid of old age, and there are many flowers around Lao Bao, so choose a few more years."
When Bao Buqu heard this, he was afraid that Feng Jiu would misunderstand, so he quickly waved his hands, "Don't listen to his nonsense, I am in a legitimate relationship."
"Do you have a goal?" Lori asked curiously.
"Hmm... yes." Bao Buqu was most afraid of becoming the focus of attention because of this kind of thing, so he dealt with it indiscriminately.
Hearing this, Feng Jiu felt relieved, as long as she falls in love normally, don't marry and flirt like Yang Liren.Bao Buyi's expression darkened, and he quickly felt relieved.
It was a pleasure to get together with old friends. After returning to the apartment, Ning Zheng took a short rest and sent him back to Wuhan by plane.He said with some regret in the cockpit, "You said that if you don't make trouble with me, can I drive the new 'Luweihao'?"
Feng Jiu has nothing to regret, just like famous cars and horses, she is neither interested in airplanes nor wants to understand at all, so it doesn't matter what kind of ride she takes, and she doesn't like Ning Zheng's painting of her own words The practice on the plane.But this time Ning Zheng insisted, saying that he bought it with private money and used his wife's name, which is showing the status of his wife in his heart. What can others criticize?Besides, it can also prevent some women from looking for opportunities to sit down. After hearing this, it is not unreasonable, so Feng Jiu can only give up.
Suddenly thinking of Lily of the Valley on the Tiger Head plane, Feng Jiu presumably has something to do with his beloved girl, right?
Ning Zheng saw that his wife was willing to take the plane he drove, and it was beautiful, so he took her back to Wuhan smoothly.
After this incident, Ning Zheng had a lot of insights into marriage. During the meeting between young and strong officers of the Ning Army, he educated his married subordinates and said: "You must remember—when your wife is happy, you must be happy with her; when your wife is angry , don’t get angry; it’s better to say one less sentence than to say more; it’s better if you just shut up.”
At this time, some subordinates timidly raised their hands and reported that their wife was different, if they didn't speak, they could pinch him until he spoke.
... Ning Zheng was speechless, so he had to say that this is only suitable for wives who are civil servants, not military generals; also, the family wants civil fighting, not martial fighting.
All the subordinates are very happy.But such an easy time is running out.
Before the party congress began, Mr. Jiang had ordered the Ning army to go to the northwest to continue the "suppression of bandits", because since October last year, several groups of red troops have successively broken through various natural dangers and encircled by pursuers, and entered the southern and northern Shaanxi areas.In order to prevent the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants from going northward to join forces with the Soviet Red Army, Jiang appointed himself the "Commander-in-Chief of the Northwest Bandit Suppression Headquarters of the Nanjing Government", while Ning Zheng was the Deputy Commander-in-Chief, headquartered in Xi'an, to control the military and political affairs of the four provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai. .
So Ning Zheng is still holding a meeting in Nanjing, and the Ning army has already moved out as planned, entering the northwest region from the Hubei, Henan and Anhui regions.Feng Jiu had already packed his bags and left Wuhan Yangyuan where he had lived for more than a year, preparing to go to Xi'an to do some business.
As soon as they arrived in Xi'an, they lived in a mansion built by the former Northwest Tongji Trust Company that Ning Zheng had rented in advance, very close to the prestigious Forest of Steles.
Feng Jiu likes Xi'an, the ancient capital of the thirteen dynasties, which embodies a profound Chinese culture. Feng Jiu came here with the mood of pilgrimage.In addition to the Forest of Steles, which collects the calligraphy of all masters of the past dynasties, Feng Jiu also went to the Shaanxi Museum to see four of the six steeds in Zhaoling Mausoleum. The things left behind have always been guarded in awe and protection, so when an American cultural relic dealer asked his domestic counterparts to steal the "Six Horses of Zhaoling" stone carvings, the people of Liquan followed them vigilantly all the way. The "Saluzi" known as "Purple Swallow is transcendent, mighty eight arrays" and "Curly Hairy Swallow" with "Yuejing saddle and bridle, rampant in the sky" pushed off the cliff and broke into pieces.
However, the local warlords at that time were greedy for profit, so they still collected the scattered pieces for safety reasons. Seven years later, the most valuable of the six horses unexpectedly appeared in the Pennsylvania Museum thousands of miles away in the United States.
This situation is very similar to the situation in today's China. "Defense by day and night, but family thieves are hard to guard against." Traitors who steal the country are the biggest problem, so like Ning Zheng, Feng Jiu is very disgusted with civil war.
After settling down, she has become familiar with the cooperation with the existing Xi’an Women’s Committee to continue to carry out the New Life Movement. Orphanages, universities, middle and primary schools, and kindergartens are still the focus of her care. Because she has accumulated a lot of experience, her work continues as usual. It went very well.
But after Ning Zheng returned from the meeting in Nanjing, his heart was very heavy: the Kuomintang is still the same Kuomintang—the disputes within the party are mostly private and less public, and no one is keen to resist Japan, but there are many pro-Japanese people, and even surrounded Mr. Jiang The words left by Sun Fengming, the assassin who assassinated Wang, also deeply stimulated him before his death: I am from Jiangsu, but my family has lived in Fengtian for several years, and my life has been dull and happy; Now, I am left with myself, why can't I fight against Japan, can't I take revenge?
This remark made Ning Zheng, the former leader of the three eastern provinces, ashamed.
The Ning Army, which finally fought the Red Army as it wished, also discovered a big problem, and the "bandit suppression" operation was even more unsatisfactory: in just a few months, the Ning Army's elite had already lost the strength of two divisions. A quick decision, fulfilling the promise to Jiang, and the plan to return to the Northeast could not be realized: most of the Red Army soldiers were the elite of the elite who survived the [-]-mile Long March and survived a narrow escape. How terrifying is it; and their officers who are armed with theory and experienced in flexible guerrilla warfare are even more awe-inspiring.
But the more unbearable thing came from behind: Jiang's direct line Central Army, with millions of people, launched five encirclement and suppression operations in four years, but with little success, but the Nanjing government will make up for all the losses of the troops in time; However, the numbers of the two main divisions that the Ning Army lost this time were refused to be restored, and only those from Jiang blindly scolded, not to mention the 10 yuan compensation for the two division commanders who either died in battle or committed suicide.
Ning Zheng took out private money to support his family, but Ning Jun was filled with grief and indignation: he ran to the northwest instead of returning to his hometown after traveling thousands of miles. Running here to grab territory?So once there was a military change, the Northwest Army, which was supposed to be supporting, just watched coldly and did not actively cooperate at all. Besides, the Northwest Army had known the strength of the Red Army long ago, so it just watched the Ning Army mess around.
Not to mention that Jiang, who is good at controlling power, has always had a strategy of either dividing and disintegrating, and pulling one to fight. He is not happy to see local warlords sticking together. It is too dangerous. When he was in Luoyang this time, he summoned Ning Zheng and said What he said was another word to Yang Zhongxiang, commander of the Northwest Army.
The relationship between the Northwest Army and the Ning Army is not good, coupled with the consumption of each other with the Red Army, it is exactly what he wants-he is fed up with local warlords like the Southern Fujian Incident and set up another hill.If the local warlords cannot assimilate into their own Huangpu lineage, then let them disperse, digest, and perish.
After several tough battles, Ning Zheng had no choice but to come to a conclusion: the Red Army of Chinese Workers and Peasants could never be wiped out.
For although they are poor as hell, their spirits are as tenacious as hell.Mr. Jiang's promise to himself is probably like a castle in the air.
The officers and soldiers of the Red Army were not for promotion or wealth, but for the resistance to Japan and for a free China.There is no such party, and such people have nothing to fear.After reading the posthumous works of the martyr Fang Zhimin, he has deeply realized that the biggest difference between this political party and other political parties is that the common people have a solid foundation, so their sources of soldiers are inexhaustible, but there is only one reason: China suffers There are too many people suffering.
Ning Zheng's thinking began to change in the middle of last year, but the change was slow at that time; now, several things are superimposed, and his change has obviously become sharp. After flying to Shanghai to visit his old subordinates who are in prison , and Du Chongyuan, a famous patriot who was convicted for his article, finally made up his mind: withdraw from the civil war and implement Du Chongyuan's "Northwest Great Unity and Joint Anti-Japanese War" strategy.
The first strategy is to build a good relationship with the Northwest Army, so after returning to Xi’an, he immediately went to General Yang and took the lead in expressing his position: the Ning Army must return to its hometown in the Northeast, and will never covet the Northwest. General Yang was dubious; Ning Zheng followed : Isn't my Northeast richer than your Northwest?
Yang Zhongxiang was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately laughed out loud, it made sense.Both of them have straightforward temperaments and both hate the civil war, so they quickly abandoned their previous suspicions and shook hands.
The second is his old subordinate. Although he is called "Border Defense Supervisor", Sheng Shicai is actually in command of Xinjiang. This is not difficult, because Xinjiang borders the Soviet Union. If China does not fight a civil war, it can provide help to jointly deal with the Japanese invaders.
The third article is to unite with the Communist Party.When he was struggling with nowhere to go, his confidant and beloved general, Gao Shaoqing, the former commander of the 67th Army who was captured by the Red Army in the Battle of Yulin Bridge, came back unexpectedly: after being captured, he had joined the army before graduating from Peking University and was in Fushi. He stayed in the study class for prisoners of war officers for a period of time, witnessed the learning and training of the Red Army, and discussed with General Peng the domestic situation and the trend of the War of Resistance against Japan for two days. After a period of time, he was deeply inspired and encouraged , offered to serve as a liaison officer between the two armies.
Ning Zheng was very excited after talking with him—Gao Shaoqing told the chief that he firmly believed that the Red Army was the most promising army in China, which was a hundred times stronger than any other army in China—Ning Zheng had already planned to stop the civil war with the Red Army and was in need Some people can connect with the Red Army, sit down and have a good talk, so as to realize the anti-Japanese united front of "Northwest Great Unity, Trinity".
Entering December, the domestic situation changed again: On the [-]th, thousands of Peking University and middle school students held a massive demonstration to oppose the loss of power and humiliate the country's autonomy in North China, and to stop the civil war.
The demonstrators gradually spread to Tianjin, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Shanghai and other places, and received the response and support of all social classes. Mr. Lu Xun even wrote an article "the fire will never die if there is a stone" to encourage them , the Nanjing government is devastated by this, even if the police are dispatched to suppress it, it will not help.
Feng Jiu silently watched the parade initiated by the Feng University students who moved with the Ning Army in Xi'an City, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Time soon came to the 25th year of the Republic of China, that is, [-] AD, and it was destined to be an eventful year.
At the beginning of the new year, students from Pingjin went south to promote the anti-Japanese war, and the whole country supported it for a while; Mrs. Liao and Mrs. Sun, the mother of the country, who were worshiped by the Nine, responded to the "Message to All Compatriots for Anti-Japanese and Salvation" and the "December [-]th Movement" put forward by the Communist Party of China in August last year. ", the "Anti-Japanese Salvation Congress" was established.
At this time, Feng Jiu received a report that a Sichuan native had sued him.
It turned out that there was a fourth-year student of Whampoa who was the direct descendant of Hu Qinzhai, the Kuomintang general who was also besieged and suppressed the Red Army in Sichuan and Shaanxi. Leave and let the body be exposed in broad daylight.
The news spread to Sichuan, the hometown of the dead woman. Her brother Wu Zhengyuan refused to accept it, and traveled thousands of miles to Xi'an, suing one after another for an explanation.But the court said that the matter was under the jurisdiction of the military court, but Zhang's immediate superior, Hu Qinzhai, refused to accept it. Later, he was instructed to write a letter of indictment and hand it to the Xi'an Women's Committee. Mrs. Ning, the "Deputy Commander of Northwest Bandit Suppression" known for her kindness and honesty, learned of this.
After Feng Jiu read the complaint of the deceased Wu Hailan's brother, Tianling Gaier felt aggrieved and hurt: What a heartless and ungrateful man, even if this woman has committed a huge crime, why can't he even do a thin funeral? !This is the person next to him who gave birth to his first daughter.
When she went back and told Ning Zheng, Ning Zheng also felt quite troubled: This Mr. Jiang fellow who has been serving as the "Commander of the Second Column of the First Northwest Bandit Suppression Army" since September last year, and Hu Qinzhai of the first phase of Huangpu is not a good person either. On the other hand, he is very protective. If he insists that Wu Hailan is a Communist, Zhang Zhonglin's behavior is considered "suppressing bandits". Anyway, there is no evidence to prove it.
Then you can't use lynching without a trial, right?Feng Jiu hummed dissatisfied.Suddenly, she thought of another trick, and it happened to be the day when she was going to Nanjing to report to her sister, so she simply handed this letter to her and asked Jiang, who has been in charge of the vigorous "New Life Movement" to educate the people to abide by "propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame" Madam give an explanation.
When Ning Zheng heard this, he thought it was a good idea, hugged his wife quickly, and said with a smile, you see that you are so angry that you are going to scratch your hooves like a pony, and humming a few more times will hurt your nostrils. white smoke.
When Feng Jiu heard this, he immediately grabbed his face, "Why do you think this man is so inhuman? How could he commit such a heinous crime?... I heard that Wu Hailan took advantage of him when he was not at home, and with him Others have hooked up, that's why he is so ruthless... You said if I had a boyfriend outside, would you do this?"
As soon as Ning Zheng heard it, that smile disappeared instantly like Feixue entering a lotus pond. One of his subordinates couldn't hold back and pinched her waist tightly.
Ning Zheng's face turned frosty, "Don't make such jokes with me. If such a thing really happens..." He took a deep breath, and then took a deep breath, as if only in this way could he have enough air to continue: "How could I be willing to kill you...but I think I will commit suicide..."
With a desolate body and two secluded springs, his eyes, which are always the most bewildering, lost their focus in an instant, and his whole body showed a sense of despondency, a colorful person who was so good, suddenly faded to gray.
Ah yo is quite entertaining.Fengjiu, who got into trouble, could only tiptoe and kiss his face indiscriminately, and later kissed his eyes again and again, needless to mention all kinds of guarantees, even if he thought about it with a glass cover (knee). I know, how could Ning Tang Fengjiu be that kind of person?
Finally, there were waves of ripples in the two-bay deep pool without waves, and it soon returned to its former glisten.
Ning Zheng began to bite her with gritted teeth, and said angrily, "Don't say such things again, you know, I can't bear it..."
Feng Jiu, who was bitten so loudly, could only regret it at this time, but just asked casually, it seems that curiosity is a bad habit that is easy to suffer; also, who said that the commander of Northeast Ning has always been cheerful?Obviously a cheapskate.
When Feng Jiuyi arrived in Nanjing, he handed the letter of indictment to Mrs. Jiang without delay. Mrs. Jiang was furious. Mr. Jiang’s direct line of officers would do such an unreasonable thing. Mr. Jiang also felt shameless. The "New Life Movement" he actively advocated was simply a great irony, so he demanded strict punishment. With Mr. Jiang's oral instructions and Mrs. Jiang's intervention, Zhang Zhonglin was sentenced to death soon and awaited execution.
Because the whole country knew that it was Deputy Commander Ning's wife who spoke up for justice, Wu Hailan, who died unjustly, had a chance to avenge her revenge. Fengjiu became famous because of this, and women from all over the country who sought her revenge came to Xi'an in an endless stream. Come on, it made Fengjiu almost powerless, so he had to open up an office with the little private money left to deal with these women. If the grievances were true, she would help hand over the papers and show favors, which really solved the problem. Quite a few questions.
Later, Feng Jiu saw this photo of Zhang Zhonglin in the newspaper. He was a good-looking talent, and his resume was quite brilliant.
Unexpectedly, Feng Jiu worried too much: this man was very lucky. After the "July [-]th Incident" in the second year, the Anti-Japanese War broke out in an all-round way.
Feng Jiu originally thought that even if he survived by chance, he would not marry another wife, right?After all, which woman would dare to marry a man who can personally kill his wife?But what surprised Fengjiu was that he not only married a third wife, but also married a fourth wife after divorce because of the disharmony between the husband and wife...
It is said that Zhang Zhonglin chose these two through pick and choose. How afraid are these women that they will not be able to marry so desperately?
Women, women, do you feel that you are the special one with the man you love?
Fengjiu's work on women was carried out in a hurry, and Ning Zheng's side also acted according to the established policy. It was soon discovered that some officers in the Ning Army were still ambiguous about the direction of the Ning Army, so they allocated private funds to run a "Xijing Daily" , the theme is "Back to my hometown, restore my China", pay attention to the unification of thinking, and the newspapers are all young intellectuals who have both writing and thinking invited from all over the country.
He thought about forming a cadet team with most of the college students who arrived in Xi'an from Beiping and Tianjin to participate in the "[-]" Movement, and belonged to the Second Battalion of the Guards. The valued student team finally revealed a disaster.
In April, Ning Zheng didn't come back for several days. He publicly said that he was training on the Loess Plateau, but Feng Jiu knew that he flew to a secret place.
Regarding Ning Zheng's affairs, as long as he didn't tell her, Fengjiu would never pick her up and ask, because she was afraid of knowing more, in case she slipped up and told others one day, and ruined his business.
When he finally came back a few days later, Feng Jiu felt that he seemed to have lost weight.Before going to sleep, Ning Zheng sat on the edge of the bed, silently looking at the spring moon outside the window, Feng Jiu squeezed his shoulder curiously, Ning Zheng turned around, hugged Feng Jiu across his lap, and said in a soft tone: "Jiu'er, you don't know, I met a man, a great man. I used to think that such a perfect man should not exist in this world, just like Zhuge Kongming in the Three Kingdoms period... Unexpectedly, there really is."
Feng Jiu touched his eye-catching Adam's apple, climbed up to bite it lightly, Ning Zheng let out a "huh" and couldn't wait to press it down, Feng Jiu rolled over to the other side of the bed mischievously, using an onion pipe Slowly twisting her slender fingers around her long nightgown strap, she said, "If you say that, I'm going to be jealous—is he as perfect as me?"
Ning Zheng couldn't help laughing, "You little rascal, you know I'm talking about men..."
"Neither a man! As long as he is more perfect than me, he is guilty!" Feng Jiu stalked fiercely.
Ning Zheng laughed loudly, dragged her over and held her down, Feng Jiu quickly suggested, "Such a perfect man, why don't you show me next time?"
This time it was Ning Zheng who was vicious, "There is no way!"
So the couple's unnutritious words stopped abruptly, and only the room was full of passion-they hadn't been together for a few days, and they felt very missed.perfect man?Let's wait until dawn.
Ning Zheng still often travels around Nanjing, Shanghai and other places, so Hutou will deliberately take advantage of Ning Zheng's absence to take a vacation, and then fly over to visit Feng Jiu - as an ace pilot of the national army, he has this privilege.
Seeing Yaya for the first time, he couldn't help but be surprised: at first glance, the six-year-old Yaya was so much like Feng Jiu back then—Yaya has lost weight since this summer, and even lost a Everyone's admirable aura of small chin, it seems that her fat body has been transferred to her younger brother for free, but Tanbuer has become fatter and fatter, which makes people never see her chubby appearance again. Feng Jiu felt quite regretful—the amazing thing is that, after taking a closer look, you will find that the facial features of the mother and daughter are not so similar except for the eyes, but the expressions of every move and gesture are really similar to each other. [-]. Hutou can't help but marvel at the power of heredity.
As an ingenious uncle, Hutou gave Ya Ya a set of Russian matryoshka as a meeting gift. When Feng Jiu saw it, his eyes were a little moist—the old sister gave it to her, and specially asked Russian craftsmen to press her from childhood to adulthood. The set of wedding presents made by Wang Yan had long been lost in Fengtian's commander-in-chief's mansion after the national disaster; now this set of nine dolls, big and small, looks like painted dolls by young Yangliu youths, which is very similar to the appearance of Ya Ya when she was a child.Yaya liked it very much, and after thanking Uncle Hutou happily, she tossed and tossed it endlessly.
Hutou knew that Tanbuer was still young, so he specially made a "drag rabbit": this small wooden rabbit has two movable long ears, the eyes are specially painted ruby color, and the front and rear four legs are made into groups. The two round wheels can pull the rope and roll on the ground, and can make a "creak" sound while rolling.The little Tanbuer was wearing a baby-blue woolen sweater, off-white corduroy overalls, with one little hand behind his back, pulling the rope and dragging the little rabbit to waddle away, calling "Mom, Mom" in a childlike voice. ", that little appearance is really cute.
Hutou looked at Feng Jiu's two children with endless love in his eyes. He saw Feng Jiu's life with his own eyes, and he was relieved, so he drove back to Nanjing.
It’s almost noon now, and Yaya, who has been living with her parents since she was a child, has already become familiar with the children in the orphanage in Xi’an. It’s the same as when she was in Wuhan. She comes here at least twice a week, just like her mother taught her, Teach children to count, write and read.Dean Xie of the reformatory school specially sent her a handwritten letter of appointment, and bound it in a gilded cardboard box, with the words "specially appointed little teacher, Ms. Ning Yanqiao" inside, and Ya Ya was covering her arms like a baby, grinning. Have a good time.
In fact, this is not Dean Xie's idea, it was her own mother Fengjiu who came up with it in order to make her daughter love charity, and the name is right and sound. Sure enough, Yaya has worked harder since then, and has not forgotten to complete her studies. In his spare time, he prepares lessons carefully, and asks his mother for advice when he encounters a problem that he doesn't know how to solve.
Of course, Yaya is still very obsessed with various math books, and she always does calculations with a pencil.Looking at the earnestness of the little Yaya, Feng Jiu said to Ning Zheng with emotion: "People must have ignorance, and then they will succeed. Our Yaya is born to eat mathematics."
Ning Zheng said solemnly: "No, I'm crazy about you, and if I succeed, Yaya can't be wrong."
Feng Jiu covered his face and smiled, laughing at why he was so embarrassed, this was much more beautiful than saying "I love you".Ning Zheng pulled her hand down and kissed her cherishingly——his mood became clearer day by day, the more he got in touch with the leaders of the Red Army, and the more he realized how promising the Red Army was, the brighter his heart became.
Yaya was leading the children to make dumplings in the hall of the reformatory this afternoon.In order to be able to teach others, she deliberately learned a few tricks from Grandma Wu at home. However, when she came here with the proofed dough and made dumplings with the children, she found that soon, most of them made dumplings. The dumplings are all prettier than hers, they look like fat little pigs waiting to be slaughtered; as for her own, they look like they are malnourished, so she can't help but feel embarrassing, and hold them to the side. The younger brother, who was kneading the dough vigorously, sighed and said, "Tanbuer, your sister is wrong, you might as well teach them arithmetic."
Feng Jiu just stepped in, and smiled when she heard her daughter's words, walked over and touched Yaya's face and said, "'The ruler is short, and the inch is long', everyone has things that they are not good at."
Ya Ya was happy again, and Feng Jiu said as if offering a treasure: "Ya Ya, look who is here?" Then he stepped aside, and immediately, an angelic face appeared: blond hair, gray hair. The eyes, still in the iconic bib shorts, are lowering their heads slightly, showing a shy smile to Yaya.
"Little Cecil!" Yaya's big black grape eyes widened in an instant, and with a cheer, he rushed forward and hugged the uninvited guest from England.Cecil's father, George Rampuson, who was walking in from behind, smiled happily, and Feng Jiu advised Yaya to let go, as Cecil's body was already covered in white flour.
Only then did Yaya let go, and a pair of little friends held hands and shook hands. Yaya said hello to Uncle George again, and then told Cecil to wash his hands, and she wanted to teach Cecil how to make dumplings.
Cecil actually ate dumplings made by Mama Wu twice in England. At this moment, when he saw a room full of Chinese children, they all looked at him curiously, and he couldn't help feeling shy again.Yaya didn't care about this, and dragged him forward. After washing his hands, Cecil stood by the table. Watching Yaya give him a demonstration, he thought it was very interesting, and he forgot to be shy under the concentration, but it's a pity The grades are not good, either revealing their secrets or being too ugly. Seeing that there are people who are worse than themselves, Yaya is also happy and tries her best to "teach".
Feng Jiu was talking with George. It turned out that George went to Shanghai to handle the family business. After Cecil knew that his father was coming to China, he immediately thought of looking for Ya Ya to play in China. George had no choice but to send him first. When I came to Xi'an, I asked Feng Jiu to take care of the children for me, and then flew to Shanghai in the afternoon.
Early the next morning, Yaya was practicing boxing, and it was Wing Chun who "takes the middle line with the elbow". She has been practicing more seriously than before.Ning Zheng, who only came home at midnight last night, saw it and was a little puzzled. His little rascal was not very interested in practicing boxing. Sometimes he would spend three days fishing and two days drying the net. So I asked her how did she suddenly know how to work hard?
Yaya hesitated for a while, and then told her father frankly: "Tanbuer is getting stronger and stronger. If I don't hurry up and practice boxing, I won't be able to fix him in the future." As soon as I tried my best, I actually pushed my sister who was almost five years older than him.It seems that in order to keep the majesty of the eldest sister in front of the young but strong younger brother, Yaya has to work hard to practice boxing.
She was punching sternly. Cecil, who was still dazed just after waking up, saw it, and immediately rubbed his eyes vigorously. He was as excited as if he had discovered a new world. There is no boy who doesn’t like kung fu. He is about to worship Ya Ya As a teacher, I kowtowed three times on my own initiative—probably because I heard that this kind of ceremony in China is the most sincere.
Ya Ya was delighted, seeing Cecil who was still wearing a gray and white striped pajamas and holding a comforting red sweater teddy bear in his arms, she pretended to shirk a few times, and accepted the apprentice who was one year older than herself.
Ning Zheng was afraid that Yaya might mistake someone for his son, but he watched from the sidelines, and he played decently. This master is qualified, so he won't lead the little British boy who is devoted to martial arts into the ditch.
Long Sheng, who has been back to his grandfather’s house in Tianjin for more than a year, is back in two days. He is also very happy to see the old friends he met in England. Since then, the three and a half children often have time to drink "English afternoon tea" together— —That half is of course unable to keep up with the pace of the older children, but Tambur insists on making fun of him.
On this day, Yaya was telling them a story.
Fengjiu found that Yaya really had a talent for storytelling.But the older I get, the more obvious the type of stories Yaya prefers. Since last month, I started reading Jules Verne’s science fiction novel "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" to them before going to bed, which really fascinated Yaya. As for my rapid recognition of characters, I can basically read them now.
She is not satisfied with just listening to other people's stories, but also makes up her own. At this moment, she is poking with her little finger, with an inscrutable expression on her face. In order to take care of Cecil, who can't understand Chinese, she always speaks English. The clouds froze into carpets all of a sudden. The Venusians stepped on patches of white cloud carpets, while the Martians stepped on red fire cloud carpets. Don’t step on them randomly, otherwise, the clouds under their feet will all be destroyed. If it melts, you have to fall to the ground..."
Edit, ah, when it comes to this point, Feng Jiu watched Ya Ya scratch her curly hair, her big black eyes were fixed, motionless; even she knew what she was going to do Feng Jiu immediately concluded authoritatively that this was out of words.
Long Sheng and Cecil were listening intently, when they suddenly stopped talking, they couldn't help urging them up impatiently,
"What happened next, Yaya?"
"Gemma, Gemma?"
Although Tanbuer didn't understand, it was interesting to join in with his sister and brothers, so he asked, "Where's the stepmother? Sister?"
After being urged, Ya Ya seemed to have just woken up, sighed, and waved her hand, "Oh, this story is too scary, I can't even tell it anymore... I'll go see if Grandma Wu's muffin cake is ready, Let's go first--" While speaking, he flew away like a light little swallow.
Long Sheng and Cecil looked at each other, "Is this the first story Gemma stopped telling?"
"It's too many to count." The two amnesiac boys who didn't know what was going on scrambled their hearts and minds, so they vowed together that they would never listen to her nonsense again, which is harmful to others.
Of course, they have made such an oath no less than three times, Yaya is very sure in her heart, she is not afraid of not having an audience.
In the early morning of the next day, Cecil had not finished taking a shower after practicing boxing with his master—the British are like this, they must take a bath early in the morning—Yaya was teasing my younger brother with a freshly baked white sugar cake, "I want to Do you want to eat?"
Tanbuer was brought up very well like his elder sister, and he probably didn't lack any vitamins, so he had a good appetite. He nodded quickly, and a pair of drooping eyes very similar to his father stared brightly at his elder sister's white hands. Like jade pastry.
"Want to eat? Come, give my sister some punches." Yaya held up the pastry, as if the little brother in front of her had become a puppy.
However, she was the one who practiced boxing on weekdays, not Tanbuer, who was less than two years old, but under the eaves, Tanbuer could only do his best to stutter, his small arms and legs gesticulated randomly, and the flesh on his face They all began to tremble, and kept saying "hehe" to the rhythm. The movements were so big that the diapers wrapped in their pants were about to fall off.
After grunting and puffing, Yaya kissed his younger brother's fat face in satisfaction, took a small mouthful, and carefully stuffed it into his mouth after his younger brother had recovered his breath. He shoots off.
Feng Jiu came in from the outside and watched the situation silently, and laughed. She actually understood her daughter's actions, because didn't she educate (tease) Feng Ling and Xiaobuku in the same way back then?
Two months later, Cecil's father troubled Ning Zheng to bring Cecil to him when he came to Shanghai to handle official business. They were going back to England from Shanghai.Yaya and Cecil could only shed tears and say goodbye.
In September, Ning Zheng’s Ning Army, Northwest Army, and Red Army’s anti-Japanese joint front was relatively smooth, and they felt relaxed. It happened that it rained during the day, so they took their children to Baqiao near Lintong. It is said that This is the best place to see "Lishan Evening Photo", one of the "Eight Scenic Spots in Guanzhong". , but haven't felt the cold yet.
In the evening, the vast soup of the Weishui River showed the unique whiteness in autumn; For thousands of years, the towers and temples here and there have been refracted back and forth, reflecting the strange golden red of the mountain, like a rosy cloud, and the original blue pines and cypresses can’t be seen, presenting a kind of all-encompassing, solemn treasure. Come.
Ning Zheng looked at the two children with their mouths wide open, and touched Feng Jiu's shoulder, "Would you like to go to the Huaqing Pool at the foot of Lishan Mountain to make a fragrant soup? It is said that you can keep your face forever."
Feng Jiu was naturally immune to such far-fetched legends, she smiled, "I don't want it anymore, I'm not interested in Concubine Yang's bath water."
Ning Zheng hugged her tightly, "Well, you are naturally beautiful, so you don't need it... But, what do you think about having a soup with me?"
Feng Jiu let out a "shh", afraid that the child would hear it, he raised his head and glared at him. Ning Zheng had a serious face, as if the words just now didn't come from his mouth.
After all, they lived in Huaqing Palace at night. This was funded and repaired by the Shaanxi government in the 19th year of the Republic of China in order to increase government revenue. It was commissioned by China Travel Agency to manage and restore the famous eighteen hot springs in the heyday of Tang Dynasty. They are very business-minded.
But Fengjiu thought it was good to soak in the hot springs in her own Tanggangzi near Fengtian's hometown, but she always felt disgusted with the public hot springs elsewhere; she didn't like it, and Ning Zheng naturally didn't like it either, so the whole family still took a bath. What is sprayed out is the creamy Lishan hot spring water, that's all.
Lintong's unique pomegranate trees, persimmon trees and jujube trees are planted around Huaqing Palace.The pomegranate tree brought back by Zhang Qian over 2000 years ago, and the famous persimmons and jujubes, which are famous for being as grand as a fire scene when ripe, are in the season of fruiting. Bent over the fruit, Ning Zheng held the branch with one hand, Tan Buer picked a few with his chubby hands on tiptoe, and gave them to mother, sister and father one by one, Ning Zheng stroked his little head happily; Ya insisted on picking high places, so I watched her get down the persimmon tree, climb the pomegranate tree, and finally did not forget to swing the bamboo pole to beat the dates. The underground Tanbuer jumped far away to cheer for her sister.
However, Temple refused to step forward when his sister was committing the crime, and protected his head resignedly, laughing so that the shoulders of his parents shook.
After such a long activity, the children soon fell asleep.In the middle of the night, the couple woke up from the shock of the thousand-foot waterfall at Shiyuya in Xixiuling. After talking quietly for a while, they got up in their clothes and walked together to a wasteland in Dongxiuling to stop. Zheng pointed and said, "This is probably the 'Jiling Terrace'."
"The Palace of Eternal Life?" Feng Jiu immediately thought of the "Old Book of Tang" he read when he was young, and asked back.
"Yes, it is the place where Xuanzong and Yang Yuhuan agreed to be husband and wife forever."
After Fengjiu heard this, his thoughts began to be unrestrained: an old man with chicken skin and white hair, bearded and bearded in his 30s, and a plump and peerless beauty in his [-]s stood side by side, looking up at the Altair and Vega, holding hands and making a wish "in the sky" To be a lovebird, and to be a Lian Lizhi in the ground"... There is no aesthetic feeling, but she has always suspected that Yang Yuhuan was not voluntary at all.
Besides, regardless of the age difference, this is a couple of the old man and the daughter-in-law. The father-in-law has unethical feelings for the daughter-in-law and blatantly steals her from the son. Will future generations continue to keep this identity aside in secrecy and be caught by some people? Can't wait for the literati and poets who want to replace them with their bodies to set an example of love and then become obscene?
Feng Jiu couldn't help feeling nauseous, frowned slightly and expressed his thoughts, and expressed deep sympathy for Concubine Yang - since ancient times, China has been the best at pinning the crime of corrupting the court on the alluring beauties, which is disgusting.
Ning Zheng was overjoyed, and kissed his upright wife hard enough not to be easily fooled by a flashy appearance, saying that you are right, it is indeed too shameful.
But this Lishan Mountain is really beautiful, even the Beacon Tower in Xixiuling, where Pomeranians laughed and played with princes thousands of years ago, the unique invention of Tang Xuanzong, a "top student in style" - "Dancing Horse Stage", and "Big and Large Stadiums" ", "Hongwen Museum"...all turned into a puff of smoke, but this beautiful night of Qinling Mountains can really make people feel nostalgic for the past.
(End of this chapter)
In view of the embarrassing scene at Ciro's yesterday, the couple got up and called some friends who were involved, and made an appointment at Xinya Cantonese Restaurant for lunch.
Lolita readily went, Zheng Li was very sensitive, and had already seen that Ning Zheng had opinions on her, so she declined; Bao Buqu remained silent for a moment, and agreed to attend, while Yang Liren came in a hurry.
Several friends met again and all looked at each other with a smile. Ning Zheng took the lead in toasting to apologize, saying that he was too impulsive last night and spoiled everyone's good time, and punished himself with a glass of apology; Drinking alcohol is safer, and we can only replace alcohol with tea. Forgive me, relatives and friends.Anyone who can do anything to him will naturally smile and expose it.
Bao Buqu's deep eyes stared at Feng Jiu who was sitting across from him. It was a pleasure for Feng Jiu to have the opportunity to reminisce with his old friend. She chatted with him with a smile. She knew that over the years, "the Bao family in the alley "In the hands of his eldest brother and him, his industry has grown continuously, spanning finance, transportation, mining and various industries. Only Mrs. Jiang's eldest brother-in-law, the Kong family, can compete with them.
But the reputation of the Bao family is much better than that of the Kong family, probably because the principle of the Bao family's business is to make a fortune for themselves, but it will not cut off other people's way; the Kong family is recognized as greedy - under the protection of Mr. Jiang After less than ten years of development, countless private capitals have been strangled, and big and small money must be held in their hands. Even small businesses such as matches, Chinese medicinal materials, and even the purchase of pig bristles from the Central Plains and Northwest Regions for export to Europe and the United States are difficult. Don't let go.
During the dinner, Feng Jiu saw that everyone present except Bao Buqu was married, so it was inevitable to ask about his marriage; when Ning Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel at ease. Pinch his thigh to calm him down.Yang Liren said with a playful smile: "What's wrong with being single, how comfortable you are. Men are not afraid of old age, and there are many flowers around Lao Bao, so choose a few more years."
When Bao Buqu heard this, he was afraid that Feng Jiu would misunderstand, so he quickly waved his hands, "Don't listen to his nonsense, I am in a legitimate relationship."
"Do you have a goal?" Lori asked curiously.
"Hmm... yes." Bao Buqu was most afraid of becoming the focus of attention because of this kind of thing, so he dealt with it indiscriminately.
Hearing this, Feng Jiu felt relieved, as long as she falls in love normally, don't marry and flirt like Yang Liren.Bao Buyi's expression darkened, and he quickly felt relieved.
It was a pleasure to get together with old friends. After returning to the apartment, Ning Zheng took a short rest and sent him back to Wuhan by plane.He said with some regret in the cockpit, "You said that if you don't make trouble with me, can I drive the new 'Luweihao'?"
Feng Jiu has nothing to regret, just like famous cars and horses, she is neither interested in airplanes nor wants to understand at all, so it doesn't matter what kind of ride she takes, and she doesn't like Ning Zheng's painting of her own words The practice on the plane.But this time Ning Zheng insisted, saying that he bought it with private money and used his wife's name, which is showing the status of his wife in his heart. What can others criticize?Besides, it can also prevent some women from looking for opportunities to sit down. After hearing this, it is not unreasonable, so Feng Jiu can only give up.
Suddenly thinking of Lily of the Valley on the Tiger Head plane, Feng Jiu presumably has something to do with his beloved girl, right?
Ning Zheng saw that his wife was willing to take the plane he drove, and it was beautiful, so he took her back to Wuhan smoothly.
After this incident, Ning Zheng had a lot of insights into marriage. During the meeting between young and strong officers of the Ning Army, he educated his married subordinates and said: "You must remember—when your wife is happy, you must be happy with her; when your wife is angry , don’t get angry; it’s better to say one less sentence than to say more; it’s better if you just shut up.”
At this time, some subordinates timidly raised their hands and reported that their wife was different, if they didn't speak, they could pinch him until he spoke.
... Ning Zheng was speechless, so he had to say that this is only suitable for wives who are civil servants, not military generals; also, the family wants civil fighting, not martial fighting.
All the subordinates are very happy.But such an easy time is running out.
Before the party congress began, Mr. Jiang had ordered the Ning army to go to the northwest to continue the "suppression of bandits", because since October last year, several groups of red troops have successively broken through various natural dangers and encircled by pursuers, and entered the southern and northern Shaanxi areas.In order to prevent the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants from going northward to join forces with the Soviet Red Army, Jiang appointed himself the "Commander-in-Chief of the Northwest Bandit Suppression Headquarters of the Nanjing Government", while Ning Zheng was the Deputy Commander-in-Chief, headquartered in Xi'an, to control the military and political affairs of the four provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai. .
So Ning Zheng is still holding a meeting in Nanjing, and the Ning army has already moved out as planned, entering the northwest region from the Hubei, Henan and Anhui regions.Feng Jiu had already packed his bags and left Wuhan Yangyuan where he had lived for more than a year, preparing to go to Xi'an to do some business.
As soon as they arrived in Xi'an, they lived in a mansion built by the former Northwest Tongji Trust Company that Ning Zheng had rented in advance, very close to the prestigious Forest of Steles.
Feng Jiu likes Xi'an, the ancient capital of the thirteen dynasties, which embodies a profound Chinese culture. Feng Jiu came here with the mood of pilgrimage.In addition to the Forest of Steles, which collects the calligraphy of all masters of the past dynasties, Feng Jiu also went to the Shaanxi Museum to see four of the six steeds in Zhaoling Mausoleum. The things left behind have always been guarded in awe and protection, so when an American cultural relic dealer asked his domestic counterparts to steal the "Six Horses of Zhaoling" stone carvings, the people of Liquan followed them vigilantly all the way. The "Saluzi" known as "Purple Swallow is transcendent, mighty eight arrays" and "Curly Hairy Swallow" with "Yuejing saddle and bridle, rampant in the sky" pushed off the cliff and broke into pieces.
However, the local warlords at that time were greedy for profit, so they still collected the scattered pieces for safety reasons. Seven years later, the most valuable of the six horses unexpectedly appeared in the Pennsylvania Museum thousands of miles away in the United States.
This situation is very similar to the situation in today's China. "Defense by day and night, but family thieves are hard to guard against." Traitors who steal the country are the biggest problem, so like Ning Zheng, Feng Jiu is very disgusted with civil war.
After settling down, she has become familiar with the cooperation with the existing Xi’an Women’s Committee to continue to carry out the New Life Movement. Orphanages, universities, middle and primary schools, and kindergartens are still the focus of her care. Because she has accumulated a lot of experience, her work continues as usual. It went very well.
But after Ning Zheng returned from the meeting in Nanjing, his heart was very heavy: the Kuomintang is still the same Kuomintang—the disputes within the party are mostly private and less public, and no one is keen to resist Japan, but there are many pro-Japanese people, and even surrounded Mr. Jiang The words left by Sun Fengming, the assassin who assassinated Wang, also deeply stimulated him before his death: I am from Jiangsu, but my family has lived in Fengtian for several years, and my life has been dull and happy; Now, I am left with myself, why can't I fight against Japan, can't I take revenge?
This remark made Ning Zheng, the former leader of the three eastern provinces, ashamed.
The Ning Army, which finally fought the Red Army as it wished, also discovered a big problem, and the "bandit suppression" operation was even more unsatisfactory: in just a few months, the Ning Army's elite had already lost the strength of two divisions. A quick decision, fulfilling the promise to Jiang, and the plan to return to the Northeast could not be realized: most of the Red Army soldiers were the elite of the elite who survived the [-]-mile Long March and survived a narrow escape. How terrifying is it; and their officers who are armed with theory and experienced in flexible guerrilla warfare are even more awe-inspiring.
But the more unbearable thing came from behind: Jiang's direct line Central Army, with millions of people, launched five encirclement and suppression operations in four years, but with little success, but the Nanjing government will make up for all the losses of the troops in time; However, the numbers of the two main divisions that the Ning Army lost this time were refused to be restored, and only those from Jiang blindly scolded, not to mention the 10 yuan compensation for the two division commanders who either died in battle or committed suicide.
Ning Zheng took out private money to support his family, but Ning Jun was filled with grief and indignation: he ran to the northwest instead of returning to his hometown after traveling thousands of miles. Running here to grab territory?So once there was a military change, the Northwest Army, which was supposed to be supporting, just watched coldly and did not actively cooperate at all. Besides, the Northwest Army had known the strength of the Red Army long ago, so it just watched the Ning Army mess around.
Not to mention that Jiang, who is good at controlling power, has always had a strategy of either dividing and disintegrating, and pulling one to fight. He is not happy to see local warlords sticking together. It is too dangerous. When he was in Luoyang this time, he summoned Ning Zheng and said What he said was another word to Yang Zhongxiang, commander of the Northwest Army.
The relationship between the Northwest Army and the Ning Army is not good, coupled with the consumption of each other with the Red Army, it is exactly what he wants-he is fed up with local warlords like the Southern Fujian Incident and set up another hill.If the local warlords cannot assimilate into their own Huangpu lineage, then let them disperse, digest, and perish.
After several tough battles, Ning Zheng had no choice but to come to a conclusion: the Red Army of Chinese Workers and Peasants could never be wiped out.
For although they are poor as hell, their spirits are as tenacious as hell.Mr. Jiang's promise to himself is probably like a castle in the air.
The officers and soldiers of the Red Army were not for promotion or wealth, but for the resistance to Japan and for a free China.There is no such party, and such people have nothing to fear.After reading the posthumous works of the martyr Fang Zhimin, he has deeply realized that the biggest difference between this political party and other political parties is that the common people have a solid foundation, so their sources of soldiers are inexhaustible, but there is only one reason: China suffers There are too many people suffering.
Ning Zheng's thinking began to change in the middle of last year, but the change was slow at that time; now, several things are superimposed, and his change has obviously become sharp. After flying to Shanghai to visit his old subordinates who are in prison , and Du Chongyuan, a famous patriot who was convicted for his article, finally made up his mind: withdraw from the civil war and implement Du Chongyuan's "Northwest Great Unity and Joint Anti-Japanese War" strategy.
The first strategy is to build a good relationship with the Northwest Army, so after returning to Xi’an, he immediately went to General Yang and took the lead in expressing his position: the Ning Army must return to its hometown in the Northeast, and will never covet the Northwest. General Yang was dubious; Ning Zheng followed : Isn't my Northeast richer than your Northwest?
Yang Zhongxiang was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately laughed out loud, it made sense.Both of them have straightforward temperaments and both hate the civil war, so they quickly abandoned their previous suspicions and shook hands.
The second is his old subordinate. Although he is called "Border Defense Supervisor", Sheng Shicai is actually in command of Xinjiang. This is not difficult, because Xinjiang borders the Soviet Union. If China does not fight a civil war, it can provide help to jointly deal with the Japanese invaders.
The third article is to unite with the Communist Party.When he was struggling with nowhere to go, his confidant and beloved general, Gao Shaoqing, the former commander of the 67th Army who was captured by the Red Army in the Battle of Yulin Bridge, came back unexpectedly: after being captured, he had joined the army before graduating from Peking University and was in Fushi. He stayed in the study class for prisoners of war officers for a period of time, witnessed the learning and training of the Red Army, and discussed with General Peng the domestic situation and the trend of the War of Resistance against Japan for two days. After a period of time, he was deeply inspired and encouraged , offered to serve as a liaison officer between the two armies.
Ning Zheng was very excited after talking with him—Gao Shaoqing told the chief that he firmly believed that the Red Army was the most promising army in China, which was a hundred times stronger than any other army in China—Ning Zheng had already planned to stop the civil war with the Red Army and was in need Some people can connect with the Red Army, sit down and have a good talk, so as to realize the anti-Japanese united front of "Northwest Great Unity, Trinity".
Entering December, the domestic situation changed again: On the [-]th, thousands of Peking University and middle school students held a massive demonstration to oppose the loss of power and humiliate the country's autonomy in North China, and to stop the civil war.
The demonstrators gradually spread to Tianjin, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Shanghai and other places, and received the response and support of all social classes. Mr. Lu Xun even wrote an article "the fire will never die if there is a stone" to encourage them , the Nanjing government is devastated by this, even if the police are dispatched to suppress it, it will not help.
Feng Jiu silently watched the parade initiated by the Feng University students who moved with the Ning Army in Xi'an City, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Time soon came to the 25th year of the Republic of China, that is, [-] AD, and it was destined to be an eventful year.
At the beginning of the new year, students from Pingjin went south to promote the anti-Japanese war, and the whole country supported it for a while; Mrs. Liao and Mrs. Sun, the mother of the country, who were worshiped by the Nine, responded to the "Message to All Compatriots for Anti-Japanese and Salvation" and the "December [-]th Movement" put forward by the Communist Party of China in August last year. ", the "Anti-Japanese Salvation Congress" was established.
At this time, Feng Jiu received a report that a Sichuan native had sued him.
It turned out that there was a fourth-year student of Whampoa who was the direct descendant of Hu Qinzhai, the Kuomintang general who was also besieged and suppressed the Red Army in Sichuan and Shaanxi. Leave and let the body be exposed in broad daylight.
The news spread to Sichuan, the hometown of the dead woman. Her brother Wu Zhengyuan refused to accept it, and traveled thousands of miles to Xi'an, suing one after another for an explanation.But the court said that the matter was under the jurisdiction of the military court, but Zhang's immediate superior, Hu Qinzhai, refused to accept it. Later, he was instructed to write a letter of indictment and hand it to the Xi'an Women's Committee. Mrs. Ning, the "Deputy Commander of Northwest Bandit Suppression" known for her kindness and honesty, learned of this.
After Feng Jiu read the complaint of the deceased Wu Hailan's brother, Tianling Gaier felt aggrieved and hurt: What a heartless and ungrateful man, even if this woman has committed a huge crime, why can't he even do a thin funeral? !This is the person next to him who gave birth to his first daughter.
When she went back and told Ning Zheng, Ning Zheng also felt quite troubled: This Mr. Jiang fellow who has been serving as the "Commander of the Second Column of the First Northwest Bandit Suppression Army" since September last year, and Hu Qinzhai of the first phase of Huangpu is not a good person either. On the other hand, he is very protective. If he insists that Wu Hailan is a Communist, Zhang Zhonglin's behavior is considered "suppressing bandits". Anyway, there is no evidence to prove it.
Then you can't use lynching without a trial, right?Feng Jiu hummed dissatisfied.Suddenly, she thought of another trick, and it happened to be the day when she was going to Nanjing to report to her sister, so she simply handed this letter to her and asked Jiang, who has been in charge of the vigorous "New Life Movement" to educate the people to abide by "propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame" Madam give an explanation.
When Ning Zheng heard this, he thought it was a good idea, hugged his wife quickly, and said with a smile, you see that you are so angry that you are going to scratch your hooves like a pony, and humming a few more times will hurt your nostrils. white smoke.
When Feng Jiu heard this, he immediately grabbed his face, "Why do you think this man is so inhuman? How could he commit such a heinous crime?... I heard that Wu Hailan took advantage of him when he was not at home, and with him Others have hooked up, that's why he is so ruthless... You said if I had a boyfriend outside, would you do this?"
As soon as Ning Zheng heard it, that smile disappeared instantly like Feixue entering a lotus pond. One of his subordinates couldn't hold back and pinched her waist tightly.
Ning Zheng's face turned frosty, "Don't make such jokes with me. If such a thing really happens..." He took a deep breath, and then took a deep breath, as if only in this way could he have enough air to continue: "How could I be willing to kill you...but I think I will commit suicide..."
With a desolate body and two secluded springs, his eyes, which are always the most bewildering, lost their focus in an instant, and his whole body showed a sense of despondency, a colorful person who was so good, suddenly faded to gray.
Ah yo is quite entertaining.Fengjiu, who got into trouble, could only tiptoe and kiss his face indiscriminately, and later kissed his eyes again and again, needless to mention all kinds of guarantees, even if he thought about it with a glass cover (knee). I know, how could Ning Tang Fengjiu be that kind of person?
Finally, there were waves of ripples in the two-bay deep pool without waves, and it soon returned to its former glisten.
Ning Zheng began to bite her with gritted teeth, and said angrily, "Don't say such things again, you know, I can't bear it..."
Feng Jiu, who was bitten so loudly, could only regret it at this time, but just asked casually, it seems that curiosity is a bad habit that is easy to suffer; also, who said that the commander of Northeast Ning has always been cheerful?Obviously a cheapskate.
When Feng Jiuyi arrived in Nanjing, he handed the letter of indictment to Mrs. Jiang without delay. Mrs. Jiang was furious. Mr. Jiang’s direct line of officers would do such an unreasonable thing. Mr. Jiang also felt shameless. The "New Life Movement" he actively advocated was simply a great irony, so he demanded strict punishment. With Mr. Jiang's oral instructions and Mrs. Jiang's intervention, Zhang Zhonglin was sentenced to death soon and awaited execution.
Because the whole country knew that it was Deputy Commander Ning's wife who spoke up for justice, Wu Hailan, who died unjustly, had a chance to avenge her revenge. Fengjiu became famous because of this, and women from all over the country who sought her revenge came to Xi'an in an endless stream. Come on, it made Fengjiu almost powerless, so he had to open up an office with the little private money left to deal with these women. If the grievances were true, she would help hand over the papers and show favors, which really solved the problem. Quite a few questions.
Later, Feng Jiu saw this photo of Zhang Zhonglin in the newspaper. He was a good-looking talent, and his resume was quite brilliant.
Unexpectedly, Feng Jiu worried too much: this man was very lucky. After the "July [-]th Incident" in the second year, the Anti-Japanese War broke out in an all-round way.
Feng Jiu originally thought that even if he survived by chance, he would not marry another wife, right?After all, which woman would dare to marry a man who can personally kill his wife?But what surprised Fengjiu was that he not only married a third wife, but also married a fourth wife after divorce because of the disharmony between the husband and wife...
It is said that Zhang Zhonglin chose these two through pick and choose. How afraid are these women that they will not be able to marry so desperately?
Women, women, do you feel that you are the special one with the man you love?
Fengjiu's work on women was carried out in a hurry, and Ning Zheng's side also acted according to the established policy. It was soon discovered that some officers in the Ning Army were still ambiguous about the direction of the Ning Army, so they allocated private funds to run a "Xijing Daily" , the theme is "Back to my hometown, restore my China", pay attention to the unification of thinking, and the newspapers are all young intellectuals who have both writing and thinking invited from all over the country.
He thought about forming a cadet team with most of the college students who arrived in Xi'an from Beiping and Tianjin to participate in the "[-]" Movement, and belonged to the Second Battalion of the Guards. The valued student team finally revealed a disaster.
In April, Ning Zheng didn't come back for several days. He publicly said that he was training on the Loess Plateau, but Feng Jiu knew that he flew to a secret place.
Regarding Ning Zheng's affairs, as long as he didn't tell her, Fengjiu would never pick her up and ask, because she was afraid of knowing more, in case she slipped up and told others one day, and ruined his business.
When he finally came back a few days later, Feng Jiu felt that he seemed to have lost weight.Before going to sleep, Ning Zheng sat on the edge of the bed, silently looking at the spring moon outside the window, Feng Jiu squeezed his shoulder curiously, Ning Zheng turned around, hugged Feng Jiu across his lap, and said in a soft tone: "Jiu'er, you don't know, I met a man, a great man. I used to think that such a perfect man should not exist in this world, just like Zhuge Kongming in the Three Kingdoms period... Unexpectedly, there really is."
Feng Jiu touched his eye-catching Adam's apple, climbed up to bite it lightly, Ning Zheng let out a "huh" and couldn't wait to press it down, Feng Jiu rolled over to the other side of the bed mischievously, using an onion pipe Slowly twisting her slender fingers around her long nightgown strap, she said, "If you say that, I'm going to be jealous—is he as perfect as me?"
Ning Zheng couldn't help laughing, "You little rascal, you know I'm talking about men..."
"Neither a man! As long as he is more perfect than me, he is guilty!" Feng Jiu stalked fiercely.
Ning Zheng laughed loudly, dragged her over and held her down, Feng Jiu quickly suggested, "Such a perfect man, why don't you show me next time?"
This time it was Ning Zheng who was vicious, "There is no way!"
So the couple's unnutritious words stopped abruptly, and only the room was full of passion-they hadn't been together for a few days, and they felt very missed.perfect man?Let's wait until dawn.
Ning Zheng still often travels around Nanjing, Shanghai and other places, so Hutou will deliberately take advantage of Ning Zheng's absence to take a vacation, and then fly over to visit Feng Jiu - as an ace pilot of the national army, he has this privilege.
Seeing Yaya for the first time, he couldn't help but be surprised: at first glance, the six-year-old Yaya was so much like Feng Jiu back then—Yaya has lost weight since this summer, and even lost a Everyone's admirable aura of small chin, it seems that her fat body has been transferred to her younger brother for free, but Tanbuer has become fatter and fatter, which makes people never see her chubby appearance again. Feng Jiu felt quite regretful—the amazing thing is that, after taking a closer look, you will find that the facial features of the mother and daughter are not so similar except for the eyes, but the expressions of every move and gesture are really similar to each other. [-]. Hutou can't help but marvel at the power of heredity.
As an ingenious uncle, Hutou gave Ya Ya a set of Russian matryoshka as a meeting gift. When Feng Jiu saw it, his eyes were a little moist—the old sister gave it to her, and specially asked Russian craftsmen to press her from childhood to adulthood. The set of wedding presents made by Wang Yan had long been lost in Fengtian's commander-in-chief's mansion after the national disaster; now this set of nine dolls, big and small, looks like painted dolls by young Yangliu youths, which is very similar to the appearance of Ya Ya when she was a child.Yaya liked it very much, and after thanking Uncle Hutou happily, she tossed and tossed it endlessly.
Hutou knew that Tanbuer was still young, so he specially made a "drag rabbit": this small wooden rabbit has two movable long ears, the eyes are specially painted ruby color, and the front and rear four legs are made into groups. The two round wheels can pull the rope and roll on the ground, and can make a "creak" sound while rolling.The little Tanbuer was wearing a baby-blue woolen sweater, off-white corduroy overalls, with one little hand behind his back, pulling the rope and dragging the little rabbit to waddle away, calling "Mom, Mom" in a childlike voice. ", that little appearance is really cute.
Hutou looked at Feng Jiu's two children with endless love in his eyes. He saw Feng Jiu's life with his own eyes, and he was relieved, so he drove back to Nanjing.
It’s almost noon now, and Yaya, who has been living with her parents since she was a child, has already become familiar with the children in the orphanage in Xi’an. It’s the same as when she was in Wuhan. She comes here at least twice a week, just like her mother taught her, Teach children to count, write and read.Dean Xie of the reformatory school specially sent her a handwritten letter of appointment, and bound it in a gilded cardboard box, with the words "specially appointed little teacher, Ms. Ning Yanqiao" inside, and Ya Ya was covering her arms like a baby, grinning. Have a good time.
In fact, this is not Dean Xie's idea, it was her own mother Fengjiu who came up with it in order to make her daughter love charity, and the name is right and sound. Sure enough, Yaya has worked harder since then, and has not forgotten to complete her studies. In his spare time, he prepares lessons carefully, and asks his mother for advice when he encounters a problem that he doesn't know how to solve.
Of course, Yaya is still very obsessed with various math books, and she always does calculations with a pencil.Looking at the earnestness of the little Yaya, Feng Jiu said to Ning Zheng with emotion: "People must have ignorance, and then they will succeed. Our Yaya is born to eat mathematics."
Ning Zheng said solemnly: "No, I'm crazy about you, and if I succeed, Yaya can't be wrong."
Feng Jiu covered his face and smiled, laughing at why he was so embarrassed, this was much more beautiful than saying "I love you".Ning Zheng pulled her hand down and kissed her cherishingly——his mood became clearer day by day, the more he got in touch with the leaders of the Red Army, and the more he realized how promising the Red Army was, the brighter his heart became.
Yaya was leading the children to make dumplings in the hall of the reformatory this afternoon.In order to be able to teach others, she deliberately learned a few tricks from Grandma Wu at home. However, when she came here with the proofed dough and made dumplings with the children, she found that soon, most of them made dumplings. The dumplings are all prettier than hers, they look like fat little pigs waiting to be slaughtered; as for her own, they look like they are malnourished, so she can't help but feel embarrassing, and hold them to the side. The younger brother, who was kneading the dough vigorously, sighed and said, "Tanbuer, your sister is wrong, you might as well teach them arithmetic."
Feng Jiu just stepped in, and smiled when she heard her daughter's words, walked over and touched Yaya's face and said, "'The ruler is short, and the inch is long', everyone has things that they are not good at."
Ya Ya was happy again, and Feng Jiu said as if offering a treasure: "Ya Ya, look who is here?" Then he stepped aside, and immediately, an angelic face appeared: blond hair, gray hair. The eyes, still in the iconic bib shorts, are lowering their heads slightly, showing a shy smile to Yaya.
"Little Cecil!" Yaya's big black grape eyes widened in an instant, and with a cheer, he rushed forward and hugged the uninvited guest from England.Cecil's father, George Rampuson, who was walking in from behind, smiled happily, and Feng Jiu advised Yaya to let go, as Cecil's body was already covered in white flour.
Only then did Yaya let go, and a pair of little friends held hands and shook hands. Yaya said hello to Uncle George again, and then told Cecil to wash his hands, and she wanted to teach Cecil how to make dumplings.
Cecil actually ate dumplings made by Mama Wu twice in England. At this moment, when he saw a room full of Chinese children, they all looked at him curiously, and he couldn't help feeling shy again.Yaya didn't care about this, and dragged him forward. After washing his hands, Cecil stood by the table. Watching Yaya give him a demonstration, he thought it was very interesting, and he forgot to be shy under the concentration, but it's a pity The grades are not good, either revealing their secrets or being too ugly. Seeing that there are people who are worse than themselves, Yaya is also happy and tries her best to "teach".
Feng Jiu was talking with George. It turned out that George went to Shanghai to handle the family business. After Cecil knew that his father was coming to China, he immediately thought of looking for Ya Ya to play in China. George had no choice but to send him first. When I came to Xi'an, I asked Feng Jiu to take care of the children for me, and then flew to Shanghai in the afternoon.
Early the next morning, Yaya was practicing boxing, and it was Wing Chun who "takes the middle line with the elbow". She has been practicing more seriously than before.Ning Zheng, who only came home at midnight last night, saw it and was a little puzzled. His little rascal was not very interested in practicing boxing. Sometimes he would spend three days fishing and two days drying the net. So I asked her how did she suddenly know how to work hard?
Yaya hesitated for a while, and then told her father frankly: "Tanbuer is getting stronger and stronger. If I don't hurry up and practice boxing, I won't be able to fix him in the future." As soon as I tried my best, I actually pushed my sister who was almost five years older than him.It seems that in order to keep the majesty of the eldest sister in front of the young but strong younger brother, Yaya has to work hard to practice boxing.
She was punching sternly. Cecil, who was still dazed just after waking up, saw it, and immediately rubbed his eyes vigorously. He was as excited as if he had discovered a new world. There is no boy who doesn’t like kung fu. He is about to worship Ya Ya As a teacher, I kowtowed three times on my own initiative—probably because I heard that this kind of ceremony in China is the most sincere.
Ya Ya was delighted, seeing Cecil who was still wearing a gray and white striped pajamas and holding a comforting red sweater teddy bear in his arms, she pretended to shirk a few times, and accepted the apprentice who was one year older than herself.
Ning Zheng was afraid that Yaya might mistake someone for his son, but he watched from the sidelines, and he played decently. This master is qualified, so he won't lead the little British boy who is devoted to martial arts into the ditch.
Long Sheng, who has been back to his grandfather’s house in Tianjin for more than a year, is back in two days. He is also very happy to see the old friends he met in England. Since then, the three and a half children often have time to drink "English afternoon tea" together— —That half is of course unable to keep up with the pace of the older children, but Tambur insists on making fun of him.
On this day, Yaya was telling them a story.
Fengjiu found that Yaya really had a talent for storytelling.But the older I get, the more obvious the type of stories Yaya prefers. Since last month, I started reading Jules Verne’s science fiction novel "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" to them before going to bed, which really fascinated Yaya. As for my rapid recognition of characters, I can basically read them now.
She is not satisfied with just listening to other people's stories, but also makes up her own. At this moment, she is poking with her little finger, with an inscrutable expression on her face. In order to take care of Cecil, who can't understand Chinese, she always speaks English. The clouds froze into carpets all of a sudden. The Venusians stepped on patches of white cloud carpets, while the Martians stepped on red fire cloud carpets. Don’t step on them randomly, otherwise, the clouds under their feet will all be destroyed. If it melts, you have to fall to the ground..."
Edit, ah, when it comes to this point, Feng Jiu watched Ya Ya scratch her curly hair, her big black eyes were fixed, motionless; even she knew what she was going to do Feng Jiu immediately concluded authoritatively that this was out of words.
Long Sheng and Cecil were listening intently, when they suddenly stopped talking, they couldn't help urging them up impatiently,
"What happened next, Yaya?"
"Gemma, Gemma?"
Although Tanbuer didn't understand, it was interesting to join in with his sister and brothers, so he asked, "Where's the stepmother? Sister?"
After being urged, Ya Ya seemed to have just woken up, sighed, and waved her hand, "Oh, this story is too scary, I can't even tell it anymore... I'll go see if Grandma Wu's muffin cake is ready, Let's go first--" While speaking, he flew away like a light little swallow.
Long Sheng and Cecil looked at each other, "Is this the first story Gemma stopped telling?"
"It's too many to count." The two amnesiac boys who didn't know what was going on scrambled their hearts and minds, so they vowed together that they would never listen to her nonsense again, which is harmful to others.
Of course, they have made such an oath no less than three times, Yaya is very sure in her heart, she is not afraid of not having an audience.
In the early morning of the next day, Cecil had not finished taking a shower after practicing boxing with his master—the British are like this, they must take a bath early in the morning—Yaya was teasing my younger brother with a freshly baked white sugar cake, "I want to Do you want to eat?"
Tanbuer was brought up very well like his elder sister, and he probably didn't lack any vitamins, so he had a good appetite. He nodded quickly, and a pair of drooping eyes very similar to his father stared brightly at his elder sister's white hands. Like jade pastry.
"Want to eat? Come, give my sister some punches." Yaya held up the pastry, as if the little brother in front of her had become a puppy.
However, she was the one who practiced boxing on weekdays, not Tanbuer, who was less than two years old, but under the eaves, Tanbuer could only do his best to stutter, his small arms and legs gesticulated randomly, and the flesh on his face They all began to tremble, and kept saying "hehe" to the rhythm. The movements were so big that the diapers wrapped in their pants were about to fall off.
After grunting and puffing, Yaya kissed his younger brother's fat face in satisfaction, took a small mouthful, and carefully stuffed it into his mouth after his younger brother had recovered his breath. He shoots off.
Feng Jiu came in from the outside and watched the situation silently, and laughed. She actually understood her daughter's actions, because didn't she educate (tease) Feng Ling and Xiaobuku in the same way back then?
Two months later, Cecil's father troubled Ning Zheng to bring Cecil to him when he came to Shanghai to handle official business. They were going back to England from Shanghai.Yaya and Cecil could only shed tears and say goodbye.
In September, Ning Zheng’s Ning Army, Northwest Army, and Red Army’s anti-Japanese joint front was relatively smooth, and they felt relaxed. It happened that it rained during the day, so they took their children to Baqiao near Lintong. It is said that This is the best place to see "Lishan Evening Photo", one of the "Eight Scenic Spots in Guanzhong". , but haven't felt the cold yet.
In the evening, the vast soup of the Weishui River showed the unique whiteness in autumn; For thousands of years, the towers and temples here and there have been refracted back and forth, reflecting the strange golden red of the mountain, like a rosy cloud, and the original blue pines and cypresses can’t be seen, presenting a kind of all-encompassing, solemn treasure. Come.
Ning Zheng looked at the two children with their mouths wide open, and touched Feng Jiu's shoulder, "Would you like to go to the Huaqing Pool at the foot of Lishan Mountain to make a fragrant soup? It is said that you can keep your face forever."
Feng Jiu was naturally immune to such far-fetched legends, she smiled, "I don't want it anymore, I'm not interested in Concubine Yang's bath water."
Ning Zheng hugged her tightly, "Well, you are naturally beautiful, so you don't need it... But, what do you think about having a soup with me?"
Feng Jiu let out a "shh", afraid that the child would hear it, he raised his head and glared at him. Ning Zheng had a serious face, as if the words just now didn't come from his mouth.
After all, they lived in Huaqing Palace at night. This was funded and repaired by the Shaanxi government in the 19th year of the Republic of China in order to increase government revenue. It was commissioned by China Travel Agency to manage and restore the famous eighteen hot springs in the heyday of Tang Dynasty. They are very business-minded.
But Fengjiu thought it was good to soak in the hot springs in her own Tanggangzi near Fengtian's hometown, but she always felt disgusted with the public hot springs elsewhere; she didn't like it, and Ning Zheng naturally didn't like it either, so the whole family still took a bath. What is sprayed out is the creamy Lishan hot spring water, that's all.
Lintong's unique pomegranate trees, persimmon trees and jujube trees are planted around Huaqing Palace.The pomegranate tree brought back by Zhang Qian over 2000 years ago, and the famous persimmons and jujubes, which are famous for being as grand as a fire scene when ripe, are in the season of fruiting. Bent over the fruit, Ning Zheng held the branch with one hand, Tan Buer picked a few with his chubby hands on tiptoe, and gave them to mother, sister and father one by one, Ning Zheng stroked his little head happily; Ya insisted on picking high places, so I watched her get down the persimmon tree, climb the pomegranate tree, and finally did not forget to swing the bamboo pole to beat the dates. The underground Tanbuer jumped far away to cheer for her sister.
However, Temple refused to step forward when his sister was committing the crime, and protected his head resignedly, laughing so that the shoulders of his parents shook.
After such a long activity, the children soon fell asleep.In the middle of the night, the couple woke up from the shock of the thousand-foot waterfall at Shiyuya in Xixiuling. After talking quietly for a while, they got up in their clothes and walked together to a wasteland in Dongxiuling to stop. Zheng pointed and said, "This is probably the 'Jiling Terrace'."
"The Palace of Eternal Life?" Feng Jiu immediately thought of the "Old Book of Tang" he read when he was young, and asked back.
"Yes, it is the place where Xuanzong and Yang Yuhuan agreed to be husband and wife forever."
After Fengjiu heard this, his thoughts began to be unrestrained: an old man with chicken skin and white hair, bearded and bearded in his 30s, and a plump and peerless beauty in his [-]s stood side by side, looking up at the Altair and Vega, holding hands and making a wish "in the sky" To be a lovebird, and to be a Lian Lizhi in the ground"... There is no aesthetic feeling, but she has always suspected that Yang Yuhuan was not voluntary at all.
Besides, regardless of the age difference, this is a couple of the old man and the daughter-in-law. The father-in-law has unethical feelings for the daughter-in-law and blatantly steals her from the son. Will future generations continue to keep this identity aside in secrecy and be caught by some people? Can't wait for the literati and poets who want to replace them with their bodies to set an example of love and then become obscene?
Feng Jiu couldn't help feeling nauseous, frowned slightly and expressed his thoughts, and expressed deep sympathy for Concubine Yang - since ancient times, China has been the best at pinning the crime of corrupting the court on the alluring beauties, which is disgusting.
Ning Zheng was overjoyed, and kissed his upright wife hard enough not to be easily fooled by a flashy appearance, saying that you are right, it is indeed too shameful.
But this Lishan Mountain is really beautiful, even the Beacon Tower in Xixiuling, where Pomeranians laughed and played with princes thousands of years ago, the unique invention of Tang Xuanzong, a "top student in style" - "Dancing Horse Stage", and "Big and Large Stadiums" ", "Hongwen Museum"...all turned into a puff of smoke, but this beautiful night of Qinling Mountains can really make people feel nostalgic for the past.
