When he was woken up, Xu Ruifeng was reluctant to open his eyes. The early morning light reflected through the window was particularly strong. He didn't want to look at it, as if he didn't get enough sleep after being sleepy all night.
"Don't shake, I'm sleepy."
This was the answer given by Lao Xu, but Wen Wan didn't care about that at all. She grabbed Lao Xu and opened her mouth and asked: "Are you sleepy?"
"Do you know that I waited for you all night last night?"
"Are you sleepy this time?"
"Tell me, what did you do last night?"
Xu Ruifeng shook his shoulders violently to stop Wen Wan from holding on and responded: "What else can I do? Can't I go to the caravan to take care of the animals?"
Taking care of the animals was Xu Ruifeng's excuse for going out yesterday. The animals were the life of the caravan, and he could be considered worthy of the wages given by his employer by taking good care of them.
"Fart, you need to take care of the animals for one night?"
"Who took care of me all night?"
Xu Ruifeng turned around and reluctantly opened his eyes to look at Wen Wan: "Didn't they shoot and fire off artillery in the city at night? There were Japanese soldiers running all over the streets, so we didn't dare to go out."
"My boss wants us to move in, saying it's too late and it's not safe. If you weren't pregnant, who would have run home despite the sound of gunfire and had to hide from the Japs in the streets."
At this point, Lao Xu felt aggrieved: "On the other hand, you don't know if your man has returned home? Then I thought there was an earthquake as soon as I entered the house. Your old man was snoring loudly while he was sleeping."
puff.
Wen Wan was stunned but couldn't hold back her joy: "Then who asked you to come back so late? I can't stand the wait any longer. It's not like you don't know that this woman can eat and sleep even if she's pregnant. What can I do?
.”
"Besides, those who shoot guns and firecrackers are all Japanese. What does it have to do with you? How can you still fight with the little Japs?"
In the past, when Xu Ruifeng looked at Wen Wan, he always felt ashamed, so he always spoke very little. Sometimes he was not even willing to refute, but just gave a few words casually and let it go. It is different now, Xu Ruifeng can always look at her with dignity.
She was stunned, and she felt a vague sense of superiority.
Seeing Wen Wan get out of bed, Xu Ruifeng also followed him, hugging his wife from behind who was about to wash her face: "Then what if I really fight with the little devil?"
Wen Wan was really startled, and turned around. She didn't even wash off the soapy foam on her face before she looked at her man carefully, looking at the extremely ordinary face, looking at the man with enlarged pores who had been exposed to the sun for many years.
No matter how I look at my skin, I don’t see any trace of heroism.
"You, pull him down."
"We are just ordinary people. As long as you stay in the caravan when gunshots are fired outside, and be careful when you go in and out, I will burn incense."
Xu Ruifeng asked again: "Are you just convinced that I don't have the ability to compete with the Japanese?"
After wiping her face clean, Wen Wan still chose to save some face for Xu Ruifeng and said: "Okay, okay, okay, you are a hero, okay? You killed Liu Dabo, and you also killed the gangster Zhang Hongyan.
Yes, maybe, any traitor who appears in Northern Manchuria from now on will die in your hands. When I wait for the Qingming Festival to give my ancestors points, I will tell them that there is a capable person in the old Xu family, okay?"
Xu Ruifeng listened very well, Wen Wan bumped him with her shoulder: "Sa Leng, you can avoid it."
She walked out with the washbasin, raised her hand and poured a basin of dirty water outside the yard. As she walked, she muttered: "Let a few bandits lie down with a shot and not even dare to fart, and they also hit
Japs, it would be nice if you don’t run away and lose your shoes when you meet a Japs.”
I don't know why, although being gentle and gentle is crushing the self-esteem of a big man like him, these few words got into my ears, and Xu Ruifeng felt so comfortable from the inside out.
"Hey, boss, are you still going to the caravan today?"
Xu Ruifeng woke up and said, "I'm not going, you have something to do."
"What's wrong? Who dares to trouble you, the great hero who fights Japanese devils? The leeks I asked you to buy are several days old. Are you going to the countryside to plant them for me?"
Only then did Xu Ruifeng remember his wife's advice, he had already forgotten about the leeks...
"Me, I'd better buy it myself. It's better to ask for help than to ask for yourself."
Wen Wan put on her cotton-padded jacket, and she was breathless when she spoke in the early morning. She just held her newly swollen belly and went out.
Xu Ruifeng stood in front of the mirror on his wife's dressing table, looking at this face, and muttered suspiciously: "Don't I look like a Japanese shooter?"
But the feeling of shooting at the Japanese last night was the first time I was born with it. I felt like I was able to pull the trigger without distracting thoughts and without any burden at all. My blood surged up and my ambition was worthy of my heart...
bump!
Wen Wan ran back empty-handed. When she got home, she quickly closed the door and lay down at the crack of the door, looking out.
"What's going on?"
Xu Ruifeng asked from inside the room through the glass.
"Devil!"
At that second, Lao Xu stood up, but just as he was on guard, Wen Wan finally breathed out and said: "The devil is crazy!"
Xu Ruifeng walked out quickly: "What happened? This sudden surprise?"
"The Japs went completely crazy. They brought the iron bastards into the street when they entered the city. Behind the shabby car were Japanese soldiers in groups. They all looked fierce. It seems that what happened last night was not a big deal."
Wen Wan didn't wait for Xu Ruifeng to continue asking, and quickly went back to the house to start talking.
"In the past few days, the people's denunciation of Japanese pirates has finally received a response. Our military's espionage armed force, the Ranger Corps, killed the traitor Bai Jianwu with a thunderous gesture, allowing the thief who had arrived in the Northeast to lead the country's law and punish him...
"
Wen Wan was dumbfounded, and it took her a long time to say: "Bai Jianwu is dead..."
"Who is Bai Jianwu?"
"Oh, it's the traitor leader who instigated the riots in North China in the five-province autonomy conspiracy. He used to be the director of Wu Peifu's Government Affairs Office and was known as Wu Peifu's 'little cabinet'. After the failed armed riots in Peking, he secretly fled to the Northeast, causing outrage across the country.
, the Nanjing government repeatedly swore in front of reporters that Bai Jianwu would be killed no matter how many Japanese troops protected him."
"At the beginning of the period, I thought this was just another round of rhetoric about making vows and vows. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be serious."
Xu Ruifeng quickly asked: "Is it a good thing or a bad thing that Bai Jianwu died?"
"What a joy!"
"Then, drink something?"
Wen Wan looked at Xu Ruifeng strangely: "Have you become addicted after you let me drink you down last time?"
"Didn't you say good things?"
"Just drink some."
Wen Wan turned around and walked into the kitchen and walked out with half a bottle of white wine. She also brought out a bowl of miso and half a plate of pickles: "It just so happened that the leftover wine from last time was not used up for cooking."
When the food and wine were put on the table, Xu Ruifeng poured himself a glass. Seeing Wen Wan about to reach out, he quickly stopped him: "You are pregnant with a child, so don't drink. By the way, how come you know everything, and Bai Jianwu
, and the Nanjing government, where did you hear it from?”
Wen Wan pointed at the chatterbox, "You're an old actor, can you ask me a question?"
"That's it."
"I couldn't go out even though I was pregnant, so I just listened to my family if I had nothing to do. The first thing I did was listen to a play, and then I listened to whatever happened. Gradually, I got a general idea of the international situation and the domestic situation."
There are many things that Xu Ruifeng is embarrassed to ask others, but it is nothing to ask his own wife: "Then tell me, when can this little devil be beaten away?"
At that moment, Wen Wan was silent, as if someone asked about a pain point.
She didn't know what to say, and she couldn't say that the current situation in the country was in disarray. Even the troops under the Nanjing government were extremely poorly equipped. If a war really broke out, the domestic situation would not be optimistic.
