Chapter 649: Hongmen Loyalty
After listening to Huo Zhenyu talk about his acquaintance with Duan Yu and his judgment of Duan Yu's identity, Chen Guoxiang was more and more surprised, he knew Huo Zhenyu's skills, and other idlers were not opponents at all, so he asked Chen Meiling to worship Huo Zhenyu as a teacher.

Although the martial artist no longer plays a decisive role in gang battles in this era, in the hearts of the old-school Chinese, the status of the martial artist is still very good, and Duan Yu's skills are even willing to bow to Huo Zhenyu, which makes Chen Guoxiang's suspicion of Duan Yu shaken a little.
Chen Guoxiang's face was cloudy, obviously still a little undecided about Duan Yu's identity, but Huo Zhenyu didn't want him to have a conflict with Duan Yu, so he hurriedly whispered: "Mr. Chen, those who know kung fu are all masters outside the world, and those who don't easily enter the world can only be friends, and they must not be enemies!"
With Chen Guoxiang's understanding of Huo Zhenyu, he knew that he would not be able to open his mouth, and his face turned cloudy and clear, and he laughed at Duan Yu: "Even Master Huo admires the person so much, he must be a hero of the rivers and lakes, before the old man had eyes and did not know Mount Tai, and lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, suspecting that the hero approached the little girl with ulterior motives, and the hero saved the little girl, who is the benefactor of my Chen family, but I repay virtue with resentment, it is really a big deal, and I ask the hero Haihan to ......."
Duan Yu was furious by Chen Guoxiang's questioning tone before, but this Chen Guoxiang was quite honest, and he also said his previous suspicion of Duan Yu's thoughts, which showed that he was still quite atmospheric, if he was still hiding and saying something hypocritical, Duan Yu was only afraid that he would really brush his sleeves away, but his outspokenness greatly reduced Duan Yu's bad feelings towards him, but he must still be a little uncomfortable in his heart, and snorted coldly and did not answer.
Chen Guoxiang was actually very embarrassed, and it was really embarrassing for him to ask his dignified Hongmen faucet to apologize to a junior who was much younger than him, turning his head to look at his daughter who was also angry, and seeing the rice cooker in her hand, his eyes lit up, he walked over and took the rice cooker in his daughter's hand, opened the lid, sniffed it intoxicated, and then turned his head to Duan Yu and gave a thumbs up to him and laughed: "You are still amazing, I have never eaten my daughter's cooking!
"Dad!" Chen Meiling suddenly blushed, snatched the rice cooker from Chen Guoxiang's hand, and said coquettishly: "This is not for you!"
Chen Guoxiang was not angry, and pointed at Chen Meiling with his finger and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's an outgoing girl, I've raised my daughter for so many years, and I can't even change my food!"
Duan Yu was secretly funny, as soon as Chen Guoxiang opened the lid of the rice cooker just now, he smelled a burnt smell, obviously Chen Meiling put less water when cooking, cooking is really inversely proportional to a woman's beauty, but this also made him see the warm side of Chen Guoxiang, the leader of Hongmen, and his impression of him was a little better.
When Chen Meiling brought out her fried dishes, she saw a few black and slimy things in a few plates that could not be seen at all, Chen Guoxiang and Duan Yu couldn't help it anymore, glanced at each other, and laughed, Chen Meiling was ashamed and angry on the side, her face was swollen and red.
To Duan Yu's surprise, Chen Guoxiang actually rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen in person, and after a while, a table of home-cooked side dishes with full color and fragrance was served. Chen Guoxiang glanced at Duan Yu, who looked surprised, and explained with a smile: "It's strange that I can still cook, right? If I tell you that I used to be a chef, will you believe it or not?" Come, come, try my craft first, I haven't cooked for a long time, and I don't know if the craft is rusty ?......or not."
"Wow, it's delicious!" Duan Yu tasted it, his eyes suddenly lit up, Chen Guoxiang's craftsmanship was simply amazing, better than what Duan Yu had eaten in a Chinatown restaurant before, which made him more curious, "Uncle, have you really been a chef?"
Chen Guoxiang smiled and said: "Of course it's true, I know why you are so surprised, people outside say that I am rich in Hongmen, yes, when my Hongmen ancestors crossed the ocean to the United States, they did bring a lot of goods, but the money is not our own, Hongmen has long had rules, if it is not needed for justice, no one is allowed to use a penny, except for the time to help Mr. Zhongshan overthrow the rule of the Manchu government and establish a democratic regime, we used that money, and then we have never touched the ......."
"Not only can I not touch that money, but every one of us in Hongmen still has to pay a membership fee every year, so I worked in the kitchen for ten years from the age of 16, from an apprentice to a chef, and later opened my own restaurant ......."
Listening to Chen Guoxiang tell his story back then, Duan Yu is also respectful, he can keep the amazing wealth and not be moved, and start a business by himself, this Hongmen leader still has his respectability, especially Chen Guoxiang talked about how Hongmen helped Mr. Zhongshan to overthrow the Manchu government, not only contributed money, but also sacrificed a large number of Hongmen gangs, which also made Duan Yu feel enthusiastic, and his impression of Hongmen has also greatly changed.
And although Chen Guoxiang still doesn't know what Duan Yu's origin is, looking at Duan Yu's conversation and behavior, he is also an open-minded person, and since then he has completely let down his guard, and he has a great sense of being satisfied with his son-in-law when he looks at his son-in-law.
After eating, Chen Guoxiang invited Duan Yu to the Hongmen General Hall, where Duan Yu saw many precious historical records, including the reminder telegram from Mr. Zhongshan, as well as the blood letters left by the Hongmen aspirants who joined the revolution that year, and even Duan Yu saw an IOU written by a female Chinatown worker back then, the amount of which was 1o US dollars......
In addition to helping Mr. Zhongshan overthrow the Manchu government, Hongmen also played a very positive role in uniting overseas Chinese and promoting the growth of Chinatown.
For example, the female worker in Chinatown who wrote down the donation IOU was very poor, and she had the heart to donate to support the revolution but couldn't get the money, so she could only make the IOU first, although the last 1o dollar arrears were not cashed, but it shows that Hongmen was still very popular and loved by the people at the bottom of Chinatown at that time.
Knowing these unknown histories, Duan Yu couldn't help but say with emotion: "These historical materials are too precious, loyal to Hongmen, Hongmen loyal, Hongmen should not be forgotten by history......."
