Chapter 202: Departure
Xiaoju made arrangements for the hospital, and at the same time went to the dean to ask for a month's leave, so she hurried to her residence.
When she returned to her lodgings, she saw that Lawson was wandering around the hall in a hurry, completely devoid of his usual calm. It wasn't until I saw Xiao Ju who entered the door that the anxiety on my face eased slightly, "Xiao Ju, you hurry back to Hankou, let your mother and Zhuang Zhuang pack up their things, and today I will have someone send you out of Wuhan overnight!" ”
"Daddy Luo, is Lao Jiang going to do something to our people?" Xiao Ju was a little incredulous. Just received a call from Rosen, saying that Lao Jiang had turned his face and asked her to come back quickly, although she immediately made preparations to leave,
But I still don't believe it in my heart. You must know that it is only less than April, and she remembers that it is recorded in history that the second cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party completely collapsed, and it should not be until the convening of the puppet National Congress and the formulation of the puppet constitution on November 15 this year that the armistice agreement between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party and the resolution of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference were completely destroyed.
Then the Kuomintang mobilized troops from three directions and prepared to attack the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border area and Yan'an, the red base areas. The door to peace negotiations was closed by Chiang Kai-shek. On November 19, the ** delegation led by Zhou Enlai ended more than a year of peace negotiations with the Kuomintang and returned to Yan'an.
But looking at Rosen's expression at this time, he should have been in such a hurry to call her back after getting the news of Lao Jiang's change of face.
"Yes! Xiaoju, you must know that after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, in order to snatch the fruits of victory, Lao Jiang landed in Qinhuangdao by airlift since October last year, and advanced into the northeast by two routes to fight for the northeast territory with our army. In November, he appointed Du Yuming, commander of security. led two armies from Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou, provoking a civil war outside the customs!
In the past two months, seven more armies have been sent to this area, attacking the liberated areas of our country, and have successively captured Fushun, Tieling, Anshan, Yingkou, and other places. In addition, at the CPPCC meeting in March this year, the Nationalist Government refused to recognize the people's armies in Guangdong and Northeast China under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party, and completely denied the Dongjiang Anti-Japanese Column and the Qiongya Column that persisted in the eight-year War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Army, which persisted for 14 years.
Judging from the current situation, the national government will soon expel us, the ** representatives stationed in various places! The current situation is about to erupt, and I am afraid that I will not be able to take care of you at that time, so I will arrange for you to leave Wuhan tonight! It seems that Rosen has not slept well during this time, and he looks very haggard.
"I see! Now I'll cross Hankow! Xiaoju listened to Lawson's explanation. Know that this is not a time to discuss whether to go or not to go. After all, her history of this period is only a record in some books, and the real situation can only be grasped by Rosen and others, and she wants to save her life. Live well with your family. It's best to listen to the person in front of you.
"Hmm. I've got something to do, I'll drive you up later! Rosen pressed his brow, for the sake of the KMT's turn of face at the March CPPCC meeting. He received a request from his superiors to arrange for the retreat of the ** representatives at all levels in Wuhan, and at the same time to hide the underground workers who were not exposed more secretly, for these things, he has not slept for several nights.
Because it was dark, the shuttle bus to Hankou was long gone. Fortunately, Xiao Ju's kung fu has never stopped practicing, and now he can run much faster than after the assassination of Okamura Ninji, and he escaped to Hankou. Half an hour later, Xiao Ju stood at the gate of the Hu Mansion in Hankou.
Although Xiaoju ran for such a long time, she didn't take a breath, and she was still calm. She knocked lightly on the door of the Hu Mansion, and soon, she heard footsteps coming in the direction of the door. As soon as the door opened, Xiao Ju saw Zhuangzhuang's sunny smiling face: "Sister, is it you?" Come inside! ”
As soon as Xiaoju entered the door, Zhuang Zhuang couldn't wait to shout in the direction of the kitchen: "Mother, sister is back!" Stir-fry two more dishes! ”
"Really! Xiaoju is back? As soon as Zhuang Zhuang's words fell, the kitchen door was opened suddenly, and Xiao Ju Niang's body that began to grow strong again poked out of the kitchen.
"Mother! Feel free to make something to eat! Zhuang Zhuang and I went upstairs to collect something! Xiao Ju Chaoniang said anxiously.
"Xiaoju, is it what you said last time......?" Xiao Ju Niang's face turned pale, but she asked with a little expectation.
"Yes! I'm here tonight to pick you up and Zhuangzhuang! Xiao Ju nodded, Xiao Ju Niang was confirmed from Xiao Ju, and the fear in her heart was put away, biting her lip and saying, "I have collected almost everything, you take Zhuang Zhuang to move it!" I'll make more food to take with me on the road to make dry food! ”
Zhuang Zhuang stood aside and listened to Sister A and Niang's words, his face was confused, but judging from the expressions on Sister A and Niang's faces at this time, something big should have happened, he has always trusted Sister A 100%, plus a few years of experience in escaping everywhere, he didn't rush to ask what happened at this time, but listened to the arrangement and followed Sister A upstairs.
When Zhuang Zhuang followed Xiao Ju to the second floor, he was a little stupid when he saw that Xiao Ju had emptied the things in his mother and his room, and didn't even leave a piece of paper. Xiao Ju only thought that after leaving this time, she would not come back here for at least four or five years, and there was a good chance that this house would be forcibly occupied. And the furniture in the room is made of fine pineapple wood, and she is reluctant to cheapen others. Anyway, there is a small space, and everything that can be taken away naturally can be taken away.
When Xiaoju moved all the furniture and various daily necessities on the second and third floors to the acre of peach forest behind the small space house, she went downstairs refreshed, and followed by two big bags with a depressed face. When the two rushed into the kitchen, Xiao Juniang was still making egg pancakes, meat wrappers and cabbage cakes in the kitchen.
After the family finished dinner, Xiao Ju Niang continued to make all kinds of cakes in the kitchen, while Xiao Ju was struggling with whether to take away the furniture in the living room and dining room, but she was worried that when Lawson came to pick up people, she saw that the house was empty and suspicious. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally couldn't hold back and closed the first floor. And the vegetables in the vegetable field behind the house were also pulled out and received a small space.
When Xiao Ju Niang brought out a large pot of cakes from the kitchen, she saw an empty house, and couldn't help but feel a little sad and reluctant, "Xiao Ju, will we never come back in the future?" ”
"Mother, don't think about coming back in the past few years!" Xiao Ju took the pot of cakes in her mother's hand and received the small space casually, and then comforted.
"Sister, as soon as you came back, you dragged me to collect things, I don't know what happened!" Zhuang Zhuang asked about the depression and doubts that had been going on for so long.
"Strong, it's going to be war again, Daddy Luo told us to go to a safe place! Wuhan can't stay! Xiao Ju didn't know how to talk to Zhuang Zhuang about the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and he didn't know how to explain to Zhuang Zhuang what a civil war was, so he could only tell the other party that there was such a thing to happen.
"Another war? Is it the Japanese soldiers coming again? Zhuang Zhuang and Xiao Ju Niang's reaction when they first heard the news was the same, and they subconsciously thought that the Japanese soldiers were coming again.
"No, it's not! It's ** and the communist army! Xiao Ju couldn't, so she had to say it, anyway, Zhuang Zhuang is now in school for more than half a year, and Jiē has touched a lot of people, so he should know a little bit about the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party!
"** And the communist army? Aren't they all Chinese? The Japanese soldiers have all been driven away, what are they still fighting? Unexpectedly, Zhuang Zhuang asked with a puzzled face.
"This ......" Xiao Ju choked on Zhuangzhuang's question, turned around in his head, and then said: "Zhuangzhuang, when we were in Hujiazhuang in the past, we worked hard in the fields, and the people in the village watered the land in order to fight for water. ”
"It's true!" The sturdy little face showed a look of sudden realization.
"Isn't this enough, ** and the communist army are like two brothers, now that the Japanese soldiers have run away, they will naturally have to fight for territory! Everyone doesn't want their own territory to be seized by the other party for free, and if they don't agree with each other, they will naturally fight! Xiao Ju breathed a sigh of relief and made a summary.
"Sister, which side do we belong to?" Zhuang Zhuang became smart now and asked a key question.
"Your father Luo and Sister Luo both belong to the communist army, which side do you say you belong to?" Seeing Zhuangzhuang's serious expression, Xiao Ju couldn't help but reach out and flick his forehead.
"Sister, you're here again! Knock me on the forehead again! My mother and I are naturally following you! Zhuang Zhuang stretched out his hand to protect his head and glanced at Xiao Ju.
"Isn't being a younger brother just to be bullied by your sister!" Xiao Ju's face was gloating.
"Xiaoju, do you want to take away the things in the kitchen?" Xiao Ju Niang, who was standing aside and watching the two sisters and brothers fighting, asked out loud in a timely manner.
"Oh, I almost forgot about it! The things in the kitchen are all good things, and I spent a lot of money to buy them, so of course I have to take them with me! Otherwise, if you leave it for four or five years, it will have already rusted off, how can you still use it? Xiao Ju listened to Xiao Ju Niang's reminder, so she let go of Zhuang Zhuang and went into the kitchen.
By the time Rosen knocked on the door, the house had already been swept away, not even a single light was turned on, and in the dark room, there were only three people sitting on the floor and three large packages and a large bag of bread beside them.
It was Xiao Ju's idea not to turn on the lights, she left everything empty, beware that Lawson would see it when he came in, so she thought of this way, didn't turn on the lights, and waited for Lawson to come and everyone went out directly, so that Lawson would not find anything abnormal in the room.
What made Xiaoju even more relieved was that after Lawson knocked on the door, he had no intention of entering the room at all, and directly urged: "Get in the car!" I'll send you out of Wuhan City! Someone is waiting for you outside the city! ”
Xiao Ju Niang and Zhuang Zhuang did not drag, after locking the gate, they followed Xiao Ju silently with the package, and quickly got into the military car parked in front of the gate, and soon the car left the former French Concession, left Hankou, and drove in the direction of outside Wuhan.
