I originally thought that if I made great achievements and recovered almost the entire former Heilongjiang Province from the powerful Japanese army in just a few years, I am afraid that I am already quite old and should have already been married, and there are some unwilling Yuan fathers. , I am still worried that my daughter has unrequited love. In Father Yuan’s opinion, the person who can fight such a beautiful battle should be a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time and has rich experience.
It wasn't until I met Yang Zhen in person that I realized that the truth was completely opposite to what I had imagined. After learning that Yang Zhen was not so young, not to mention that his wife currently didn't even have a fiancée, the unwillingness in my heart had long since disappeared. The remaining words are "satisfied". If you want to add two more words, it would be "very satisfied".
Although Yuan's father is one of the few wealthy people in the former Northeast, he has never done anything to bully others. Although he has no idea of relying on the power of his future son-in-law to restore the Yuan family's status before September 18th, he faces With his daughter's lover being so outstanding, it is not difficult to understand why he, who has always been mature and prudent, is secretly happy at the moment.
Since the fall of Harbin in the September 18th Incident, family members have been separated by thousands of miles but can no longer meet each other. The family property has been robbed openly and covertly by the Japanese, and almost nothing is left. The only son left by his side died again. At the hands of the Japanese, my beloved little daughter also fled home because of the Japanese persecution. It can be described as a series of blows.
Mr. Yuan and the Japanese not only have a national hatred, but also a family hatred. He is full of national hatred and family hatred, but he is helpless in the face of the Japanese and has always been depressed. Yuan's father finally has a rare moment of joy today, plus his little daughter Having found such a perfect person for himself again, the old man was even more happy and excited.
Although at the banquet, Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun only had a small taste, the old man was so excited that he drank one cup after another. He could hardly hold back the topic. Speaking of the performance of the Anti-Japanese League when they entered Harbin last year, the old man raised his eyebrows. Thumbs up, he said with respect in his tone: "In the past, the Japanese and the newspapers run by the Manchukuo State Office advertised you all day long as red-bearded men who burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil."
"Although the credibility of what the newspapers in Manchukuo say that work for the Japanese is not high, the common people, even me, an old man, don't know you very well. It wasn't until you invaded Harbin that we really knew and understood you. What kind of team you are."
"The old commander's Feng Army, later the Northeastern Army, which was renamed when he became the young commander, the old Russian army earlier, and now the Japanese Kwantung Army and the Manchurian Army, all come and go in Harbin, with large and small armies There are many, and I have seen many, but this is the first time I have seen a strictly disciplined army like yours."
"So many troops entered Harbin and were not dazzled by the feasting and entertainment of the big city. Although they were extremely tired from the continuous fighting, they did not disturb any ordinary people."
"I have lived in the Northeast since I was a child. I know the temperature of early autumn in northern Manchuria. After so many troops entered the city, no one entered the houses. They opened their backpacks on the curb and rested on the spot, right at the door of our house. There were troops sleeping on both sides of the road, but no one came in even to ask for a bowl of water."
"My servant went out to buy groceries and accidentally stepped on one of your company commanders. At that time, the servant's face turned pale with fright. He thought that just like in the past, at least he would not be able to escape this slap in the face. If not, he would I was about to be charged a sum of money, but I didn't expect that after your company commander got up, instead of getting angry, he kept apologizing, saying he was sorry for disturbing us."
"After his regiment leader and political commissar came over, they came to me in person to apologize, saying that they blocked the door of our house during the troops' break and caused trouble and inconvenience to our family's travels. Feeling sorry, I looked at Many of the troops resting outside our house were wounded, and the company commander still had a bandage on his head, so he asked them to come in and rest."
"I told them that we should at least resettle the wounded. Those people were bleeding and wounded for the sake of the country and the nation. We can't let them starve and freeze outside. Although I am a bit numb after so many years, this I still had some awareness, but I didn’t expect that I would be politely rejected by your regiment leader and political commissar.”
"You said you have strict discipline and are not allowed to take advantage of the people. No matter what happens, even if a knife is sent from the sky, you are not allowed to enter the people's homes. Discipline is discipline, and they must strictly enforce it. The battle is still going on, etc. The battle is over, they will find a way to place the wounded."
"What impressed us deeply was not just when you first entered the city. It has been some time since Harbin was liberated last year. Except for the military police patrolling on this street, it is rare to see your troops. Even if there are people wandering around the street, they are in rows of three or five. They are polite when talking to others, and they never buy or sell by force when shopping. They always pay according to the price."
"Military vehicles driving on the streets strictly abide by traffic regulations and have never violated traffic rules. There are no drunken soldiers running rampant on the streets. In the past few months, even Harbin has been the most hostile to you. Even prejudiced people have to give a thumbs up when they mention your resistance forces."
"It has been several months since Harbin was liberated. Tens of thousands of troops have been stationed in Harbin, but the citizens of Harbin have never felt any inconvenience. Prices have not fluctuated greatly. The supply of coal and food is still sufficient. Of course, there must be some scolding people. As soon as the war in the Shuang Cities stopped, you raided almost all the brothels in Harbin, which must have made some people unhappy."
After making a joke, the old man raised his glass and looked at Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun and said: "I am old, but my eyes are still there and I am not blind yet. Such an army cannot win the war. What other army can win the war?" What does it mean to be a teacher of benevolence and righteousness? This is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness. He will not demolish his house even if he freezes to death, and he will not plunder his house even if he dies of starvation. I can really see it now."
"I am truly lucky to be able to see such an army in my lifetime, and to see two promising young generals who are so young and run the army so rigorously. What I say today is not because you are trying to drag me down. I only said this after the puppet-occupied fire mills and cotton spinning mills were returned, but I spoke from the bottom of my heart."
"In these years, there has been no communication with the mainland. From the newspapers of the Puppet Manchukuo, all I have seen is depressing news that has caused the National Government to lose troops and territory. Only from you can I see my hope for the rejuvenation of China. If nothing else, I rush I am completely convinced by your point. Since the September 18th Incident, I have never had a drop of alcohol, but today, I will not return unless I am drunk."
Having said this, the old man raised his glass and drank a large glass of wine. As soon as the old man started talking, he couldn't hold it back. The old man, who was obviously very excited today, almost never dropped the wine glass in his hand. Even Yang Zhenhe Even Guo Bingxun's persuasion failed to get the old man to put down his wine glass.
Seeing her old father gulping down his own wine and sitting next to him, Yuan Zhiruo, who was worried that his health would not be able to stand it after drinking so much, wanted to persuade her, but was shouted out by the old man next to her. The second sister-in-law of Big Hero Wine stopped her.
Looking at the old man who was unusually rude, Yuan Zhiruo's second sister-in-law said softly: "Let dad drink. He has been depressed enough over the years. Let's not talk about the family's property. Apart from this house and restaurant, Almost everything was looted by the Japanese overtly and covertly, including you brothers and sisters, which is enough to make dad sad."
"You have been gone for several years, and there is not even a message. You don't know whether you are dead or alive. Your eldest brother, sister-in-law, and your eldest sister and brother-in-law are far away in the pass. Your other younger brothers and sisters are far away from each other. There is also no news now, and when your second brother was captured, my father watched helplessly as his son was captured by the Japanese but could do nothing."
"Dad is old, and except for your second brother, none of the children are around. Over the years, he has been suppressed for so long. Dad has lived a very hard life, and his heart is too bitter. I often see him standing in the yard. Just one night, I know that he is thinking about you two children who are separated from each other. The continuous blows over the years, if it weren't for my father's strong temper, an ordinary person would have been completely defeated. "
"Dad, although he doesn't say it on weekdays, he is suffering in his heart. We as children should understand. It's rare that he is happy today, so let him drink a few more drinks. I think both of you are on the battlefield. After fighting for a long time, an officer who is doing big things will not care about such a trivial matter."
Although Yuan Zhiruo's second sister-in-law doesn't speak much, she has been filial to the elderly on behalf of Yuan Zhiruo's other brothers and sisters who are not in the Northeast. Externally, after the tragic death of Yuan Zhiruo's second brother, she has taken care of such a large Yuan family business. Home plays an irreplaceable role,
After the death of her husband, a woman manages such a large family business in such a dangerous environment. These years of life have forced a virtuous and virtuous woman to become a strong woman. Even at the time, Yuan Zhiruo Before she left home, she had great respect for this second sister-in-law. She was also the closest to her. Yuan Zhiruo had to listen to her words.
Yang Zhen originally wanted to discuss things with Mr. Yuan, but he didn't expect that before he talked about serious matters, the person involved had already filled himself with too much. What else could he say about the rest? Besides, he couldn't drink more just because he was happy. After a few drinks, you’ll really get angry.
Although Yuan Zhiruo's second sister-in-law is only average in appearance, she has an excellent temperament. Although she has given birth to two children, she is still in good shape. She is right. She is really not that small.
Compared to Yang Zhen, who could only smile bitterly when he saw Mr. Yuan getting drunk, Guo Bingxun beside him looked at Yuan Zhiruo's sharp-tongued second sister-in-law. Although he also said nothing, he had a different meaning. He smiled indifferently. It was obvious that this woman had a special impression on him.
Yuan Zhiruo, whose heart was entirely focused on her father and Yang Zhen, naturally did not feel Guo Bingxun's scrutinizing gaze. However, her second sister-in-law next to her was looked over by Guo Bingxun's dagger-like eyes from time to time, as well as the look on her face. That faint smile made her pretty face blush.
