Chapter 234: The heroic deeds of my aunt and mother-in-law back then

Updated: 2013-01-31

"Demon fox Zhang Xiaohua?" This name, which has been stored in his memory for many years, but is difficult to forget no matter how many years have passed, made Old Man Chen lose his mind for a moment. Skipped Zhou Yu and asked Tang Ning directly. The long, narrow eyes, which had been accustomed to being half-open and half-closed, were now completely open, and the gaze was direct, and the thoughtful eyes looked at the young man who aroused his curiosity again.

"Tang Ning Xiaoyou, I don't know who this demon fox is you?"

"She is my grandmother, and I grew up with her. Some kind of Cheng dΓΉ can be regarded as my mentor for enlightenment and teaching. Tang Ning scratched his head and replied, not hiding anything. There is no need to hide it, and this old man Chen and his aunt are contemporaries of the martial arts, so he should have heard of his aunt's past, and Tang Ning has always been interested in these.

"Grandpa Chen, do you know my aunt?"

"Auntie?" Old Man Chen's voice was raised twice, his thick eyebrows were slightly raised, and he was puzzled by the strange name that came out of Tang Ning's mouth.

"Oh, that's right." Downing hastened to explain. Facing this Tai Chi master, he didn't want to leave any bad impression on the other party. "Grandma, she was an old man, and she asked me to call her aunt and mother-in-law since I was a child. As for me, I was an orphan since I was a child, and I was raised by my grandmother. When she was at home, she wore many hats, living as a grandmother and a mother. Educationally, I also play the role of master and father, so it is more complicated to call the phone, and I feel that the title of aunt and mother-in-law is also more suitable for our special family, so I have been called until now. ”

"That's it!" Old Man Chen smiled and said: "The title is just a person's code name, it is a kind of mark stored in the world, it doesn't matter what it is called, I think Tang Ning Xiaoyou, I am afraid that you have always treated Sister Zhang as a grandmother in your heart, right?" ”

Downing nodded, "Well, that's right. You are right, as long as you have a true heart of benevolence and filial piety and respect in your heart, it is enough, and there is no need to look for it in the method of calling and calling. He laughed twice, and then admired: "Grandpa Chen, you are worthy of being an old-timer, and you have a thorough view of the world." There are still many places for juniors to learn from people like you! ”

"Hahaha......" Old Man Chen laughed heartily. said: "This is the accumulation of life, and when you reach such an old age, you will understand." ”

Old Man Chen laughed for a while, stared at Tang Ning, and sighed sincerely: "No wonder! I didn't expect Tang Ning Xiaoyou, you to be the descendant of Sister Zhang, the demon fox. He said so, but he sighed secretly in his heart: "I see, only Zhang Xiaohua, who is like a devil and cunning like a fox, can teach such a person." It's no surprise that he can defeat Jiu'er. ”

"Grandpa Chen, I heard that your name is Tang Ning's aunt-in-law, Sister Zhang, which means that you don't just know her old man?" Zhou Yudao on the side.

Old Man Chen nodded, sighed again, his expression was embarrassed, and the eyes revealed in his experienced eyes were full of memories of the past, "Yes! It's not just about knowing. Sister Zhang can be said to be a wonderful force in the land of China back then, and she shocked thousands of enemies with her daughter's body, and her strange and unpredictable thaumaturgy was the nightmare of those Japanese martial arts people who invaded China back then. ”

Young people have a hero complex, especially the real experiences of those who survived the war years. Therefore, when they see the movie produced by Bayi Film Studio, when the background at the beginning of the film flashes with countless golden stars, and when they listen to the exciting soundtrack, they will be extremely excited, excited, and unable to help themselves. I can't wait to go back decades and plunge into the magnificent tide of war that spreads all over the land of China.

Old Man Chen's only two words made Zhou Yu and Tang Ning, the two seventeen-year-old boys, listen to their blood boiling, especially Tang Ning, his eyes were shining, and he couldn't wait to say: "Grandpa Chen, then you can talk about it quickly." My aunt and grandmother never told me about her past experiences. I'm really right to come to the door to bother you today. ”

The look of old man Chen's eyes was even stronger, with admiration and a hint of fear. It's the real great fear that melts into the depths of the soul! It seems that the name Zhang Xiaohua really evokes a lot of memories in his heart.

"Do you know where Sister Zhang's 'Demon Fox' nickname came from?" Without waiting for Zhou Yu and Tang Ning and the two of them to answer, Old Man Chen continued to take care of himself: "Cunning is like a fox, and action is like the wind." The heart is like a devil, and the means are ...... Hehe, as sharp as the Hades knife. This is the description of her mental means and style of behavior on the martial arts road back then, and it is also the reason for the origin of the nickname 'Demon Fox'. At first, it was the Japanese who began to call her so, and then our people felt that this name was good, it seemed to be very vivid, very representative, and then it was called like this......" Old Man Chen said and said, he was deeply immersed in the memories of the past, and his expression began to become trance-like, as if his soul was out of his body, shuttling through time and space, and returning to that long bloody time.

The room was very quiet, only the slightly low narration voice of Old Man Chen and the repeated sound of water back and forth when Chen Xin'er was making tea.

At this time, Zhou Yu suddenly approached Tang Ning's ear, smiled, and whispered: "Tang Ning, why do I sound like your aunt and mother-in-law are like Satan?" Isn't she fierce? Does it look scary? Were you beaten up a lot when you were a child? ”

Downing whispered at him. "! My aunt is so beautiful. It's been very good to me, since I was a child, I have never been willing to move a finger. In my heart, she will always be the kindest, kindest, most loving, and unique aunt in the world. For me, the importance of his old man's preservation is always in the first place, and there is no one! ”

"Such an exaggeration? Hearing you say that, it seems that her old man should be called 'Divine Fox', Demon Fox? Isn't it suitable? ”

"Stop talking nonsense, and keep listening. What Grandpa Chen said, this is the real experience of our aunt and mother-in-law. ”

With Old Man Chen's narration, at the critical moment, Tang Ning's heart also went up and down. When he heard that his aunt and mother-in-law were in danger of dying, he was nervous, his teeth were tightly locked, his face was tense, he stared at Old Man Chen intently, and he couldn't help clenching his fists. When the crisis turned into safety, he breathed a long sigh of relief, relaxed, and felt that cold sweat broke out on his back, and it was cold. I couldn't help but think: "Tut, I didn't expect that my aunt and mother-in-law were so fierce back then, and I couldn't see it at all!" ”

"Grandpa, let's tell a story later, let's have some tea first. Tang Ning, Zhou Yu, you two also try it. ”

Hearing Chen Xin'er's voice, the old, the second, and the young stopped the narrative for a while and came back to their senses. didn't pay attention, Chen Xin'er had already brought the brewed fragrant tea to everyone's eyes in turn.

"Oh, thank you, Sister Xin'er." Zhou Yuzheng listened to it with relish. The fragrant tea came just at the right time.

"Well, thank you, it smells good. Sister Xin'er's tea art level is not low? With his hands resting on the table, holding the cup of hot fragrant tea, Tang Ning's nose sniffed at the mouth of the cup, and the refreshing and rich tea fragrance went straight to his mind along his nose. It is refreshing, and it is worthy of being a top tea treasure.

Chen Xi'er, who untied the knot, also made a rare playful joke. "You just patronized to talk to your grandfather, and you were fascinated by the story, and you didn't watch my tea making process at all, how do you know that my tea art level is not low?"

Tang Ning's face flushed, indeed, he didn't notice her here just now. In the early stage, my attention was always on the content of the conversation with Mr. Chen. In the later period, he was immersed in the heroic deeds of his aunt and grandmother.

Holding up the teacup with both hands, he turned around under his nose for a short time, moved his nose, took a deep breath of the steaming tea fragrance, and then carefully looked at the color of the tea in the cup, and sent it to his mouth to drink it in three sips. His action of drinking tea made Chen Xin'er's eyes light up.

Tea drinking, especially the tea tasting process after watching the tea master finish cooking the tea, people who know how to do it are very particular. One looks at its color, the other smells its fragrance, and then drinks it all in three sips. In particular, the three teas in Yunnan are even more particular about this process. Whether customers know the rules when drinking tea is a kind of respect for the tea masters present and an affirmation of the results.

In this regard, Zhou Yu is far behind. He grew up in the United States, and was also exposed to Western culture, and his daily life was filled with cola coffee and other bean-ground drinks. Ancient Chinese teas are only loved by those who are old and miss their hometown. The younger generation of young people is really not interested in the kind of tea that is elegant, slow, and pays attention to tasting rather than drinking or pouring it. I don't have that spare time.

Tang Ning's process of drinking tea, he also felt good. But I can't learn it. After drinking the tea in the cup indiscriminately, he urged Old Man Chen to continue the unfinished story just now.

"Where did I just go?" Old Man Chen likes the tea made by his granddaughter very much, and he never gets tired of drinking it.

Pick up the pot-bellied duckbill purple clay pot and fill it again for grandpa. Chen Xin'er said: "Grandpa, you talked about the time when Emperor Hirohito of Japan announced his surrender in 1945. ”

"Yes, after the Japanese emperor announced his unconditional surrender, many Japanese people couldn't accept it, except for those soldiers, who obeyed orders, but those martial arts figures who came to China were different. Both sides have fought a blood feud, and there are countless relatives and friends who have been killed and injured, and there are countless disciples, how can outsiders erase this qiΔ“ with a single word? This is true of the remaining Japanese, and the same is true of the Chinese. At that time, there was no national righteousness, and no one obeyed orders, only pure hatred remained, and they could only kill by killing. The children of the sect have all died in China, and there is no point in going back. On the eve of the Nationalist Government's edict ordering the Japanese to evacuate the entire territory of China, the Japanese martial arts people who were in their hearts laid out a vicious array. ”

Old Man Chen sighed and said, "At that time, we were also blamed for being careless and being carried away by the victory. Seeing that he could completely annihilate the Japanese and avenge the dead relatives and friends, he found out the news that they had gathered together, so he touched it at night, but he didn't expect to fall all of a sudden. The Japanese were determined to die. I didn't even want to go back alive. We were careless and underestimated the enemy, and it didn't take long to lose nearly half of our manpower. If it hadn't been for Sister Zhang's timely appearance at that time, and she would have killed An Peiqingsan at the cost of her own serious injury, hehe, I'm afraid that no one who passed that night would have lived. ”
