At this time, it is the hot season. Perhaps because it is the hot season, the streets of Lanfeng are crowded with people, just to go out to the streets to have fun, to catch the fair, and to prepare for the normal weather. Prepare more necessities for your daily life.
The seat Zhang Tianhai chose was facing the street and was the least likely to be sniped.
It was precisely because he was afraid that something would go wrong, so in order to avoid trouble, Zhang Tianhai simply changed into civilian clothes, which looked quite similar.
And Xu Sangou is no exception.
"Xu Sangou, to be honest, you should try your best. I always feel that you are a little helpless. I originally wanted to let you work hard, and then send you to the military academy and become a soldier when you come back. You're a company commander or a battalion commander, but you just don't live up to expectations." After two glasses of strong wine, Zhang Tianhai began to scold Xu Sangou.
"I understand, Tuanzuo." Xu Sangou had a bitter look on his face.
…
Wuchang.
The weather in the south is always hotter than in the north, and it also comes faster.
At this time, Zheng Man has settled down in the Zhang family.
To the surprise of everyone in the Zhang family, Zheng Man, a daughter-in-law who came from a wealthy family and held a certain position in the military, did not dislike her family environment at all. Instead, she settled down and was not only diligent and busy with housework , and get along very well with Zhang Yulin's parents. If we use the current standards to score, it would be 90 points if not 100 points.
"Xiaoman, after entering our Zhang family, are you getting used to living there?" Yu Zhiyun asked.
"It's okay, Mom, it's good here. It's quite comfortable to live in this home." Zheng Man touched his slightly bulging belly with a happy smile on his face.
Compared with that splendid home, although this home is a little simpler, it is warmer and warmer.
The best thing about the Zhang family is that they feel sorry for his eldest daughter-in-law.
"Mom, is your brother-in-law back today? He bought so many vegetables." Zheng Man asked.
"Yes. Tian Nan is in the countryside, but he has suffered a lot. It's time to come back and eat something good." Yu Zhiyun had a smile on her face. Both sons have grown up, and one is better than the other. Promising.
With such a state of mind, how could she not be cheerful all day long? Besides, she was a person who had nothing to do with the world.
Not long after, the two returned to Zhang's house. Zhang Tianhai's father may have heard the conversation between the two. He sighed: "This second brother, why is he bad? He has to be a teacher like me." , no future."
"Dad, isn't teaching great? You just teach and educate people, and you don't have to go to the battlefield." Zheng Man smiled.
Regarding Zheng Man, his daughter-in-law, Zhang Fuhan really couldn't find a reason to refute. In terms of cultural knowledge, it seems that her daughter-in-law is higher. Speaking of fighting, she is a soldier.
"It's better to be a soldier than to be a teacher. I heard that Hu Zongnan was a teacher before? Wasn't he quite promising?" Zhang Fuhan retorted somewhat unconvinced.
"Dad, don't hate these things. For the old Zhang family, one soldier is enough. Like before, when I first met Zhang Yulin, I almost didn't die..." Zheng Man spoke quickly, and then Zi said that he was bald and grunted.
"What? He almost died?" Hearing what Zheng Man said, Yu Zhiyun couldn't help but feel slightly nervous. Zhang Tianhai was her eldest son and had left home since he was a child. She had spent most of her life All the love was given to Zhang Tiannan.
When I suddenly heard such dangerous news on the front line, I couldn't help but burst into tears.
"No...it's okay. I got over it." Zheng Man smiled awkwardly, "Mom and Dad, don't worry."
Seeing Zheng Man's face, Yu Zhiyun could probably guess how difficult the conditions on the front line were. However, she did not tell the truth. She just asked tactfully: "Then can you tell me how you met Yulin at that time?" What?"
Zheng Man herself was born in the military, and she had long heard of this poor questioning technique - didn't she just want to know the situation on the front line?
However, Zheng Man also had a general understanding of the two old men: one had nothing to do with the world, and the biggest concern was the Zhang family's three and a half acres of land; the other seemed to be a rotten scholar, but in his heart Full of patriotic thoughts.
With these two people, Zheng Man also knew that they would not do such stupid things.
Zheng Man thought about it and felt that the love experience of these two people had not risen to that political level, so she still said it: "Zhang Yulin and I met on the front line. When we first met him, He had just been promoted from the position of company commander to battalion commander. At that time, their battalion commander was transferred back to be the brigade staff director, so it was time for him to take up the post."
"It seems that this boy Yulin's ability is quite good." Zhang Fuhan smiled and seemed quite proud.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Man shook his head gently and said, "No, that's because the number one candidate for his battalion's replacement died in battle, and the number two candidate for his replacement was injured and was removed from the line of fire. Now it was his turn. .”
"..." Zhang Fuhan was about to say something, but he was speechless and didn't know what to say.
"Many people died on the front line. When I first met Yulin, it was about interviewing him. I was introduced to him under the leadership of their teacher Song." When he mentioned this, Zheng Man seemed to be stuck in a meeting. It's like a sea of suffering, boundless, and I can't get out of it no matter how hard I struggle.
Zheng Man did not stop talking, but continued: "At that moment, it was when the Battle of Songhu was at its most intense. Zhang Tianhai and his company were almost wiped out. Only then did they break through the enemy's heavy guard. Line of defense.”
Regarding these memories, in Zheng Man's opinion, they are very precious, just like a glass of old wine, the older it gets, the more mellow it becomes.
"Later, Yulin told me that in that battle, if a soldier named Xu Mu hadn't blocked the Japanese shell fragments for him, he would have died. But the soldier named Xu Mu would never wake up. But he came and died on the frontline battlefield." When Zheng Man talked about this, she seemed to be talking eloquently, but every thing was remembered in her mind.
After hearing these words, Zhang Fuhan no longer forced Zhang Tiannan to join the army: as Zheng Man said, it is enough if one of the old Zhang family goes to serve as a soldier to protect the family and the country.
At this moment, the door of the Zhang family opened, and a young man in a simple Chinese tunic suit walked in carrying a bicycle.
I saw that this young man was still relatively tall, but a little thinner. His thin figure made the simple Chinese tunic suit look extra large. Judging from his appearance, he was quite similar to Zhang Tianhai. If From a genetic perspective, Zhang Tianhai looks more like his father, while Zhang Tiannan looks more like his mother.
Compared with Zhang Tianhai's masculinity, Zhang Tiannan seems a bit gentle and weak.
If you have to compare these two brothers, they are a bit like "one in literature and one in military", and they belong to the category of "poor in literature and rich in military".
"Mom and Dad, I'm back." After entering the door, Zhang Tiannan shouted while putting the bicycle away. Judging from his gentle movements, it probably reflected his excellent tutoring.
"Xiao Nan, you're back. Mom and your sister-in-law bought you a lot of vegetables. Many of them are what you like to eat." After hearing Zhang Tiannan's voice, Yu Zhiyun hurried out to welcome her. This is her favorite My youngest son...
"Sister-in-law? My eldest brother...he's back?" Zhang Tiannan's expression showed a trace of hesitation, perhaps because the two brothers had not seen each other for a long time, so they felt a little unfamiliar.
In fact, you can't blame Zhang Tiannan for not having any feelings for his eldest brother. Zhang Yulin left Wuchang and went to Whampoa Military Academy before he was sensible. After he became sensible, he only heard about this eldest brother from photos and from his parents.
"No, it's your sister-in-law. Your eldest brother is still leading the troops to fight against Little Japan on the front line." Yu Zhiyun said quickly. Of course, the family would be happy when they reunited, but it was a pity that Zhang Tianhai did not come back.
"Oh, that's it." Zhang Tiannan nodded, with a hint of confusion on his green face.
He had never encountered this situation before and didn't know what to do.
"Quick, Xilou, I'm here to meet your sister-in-law. She and your brother met on the front line, and they are also party-state soldiers." Yu Zhiyun pulled Zhang Tiannan over.
Xilou, this is naturally Zhang Tiannan’s nickname.
Perhaps it’s because Zhang Tiannan’s five elements lack wood, and his character also has the character for wood next to it.
"Mom, this must be my younger brother, right?" Zheng Man looked at Yu Zhiyun and said with a smile on his face, his behavior was graceful and generous, and he could not be violated.
This may be temperament, and a small family in a poor family cannot develop such temperament.
Therefore, when Zhang Tiannan saw this stranger's sister-in-law, he felt a sense of awe in his heart: maybe it was related to Zheng Man's status as a soldier, and maybe it was his aura of calmness and self-reliance.
But, who can know exactly how it is?
"Hello, sister-in-law." Zhang Tiannan called out timidly. Although he was still a young man in his twenties, the youthfulness and simplicity in him had not dissipated.
Seeing Zhang Tiannan's appearance, Zheng Man couldn't help but sigh: Two brothers who are both compatriots, how can their personalities be so different? This is caused by differences in various aspects of knowledge.
Zhang Tianhai has been on the battlefield many times, and his bold and bold aura is not comparable to Zhang Tiannan's bookish spirit. In Zheng Man's heart, he can tell who is higher or lower at a glance.
She wanted to go back, but Zheng Man's emotional intelligence was not that low. She smiled and said, "Hello."
