The next day.

The Japanese troops on the streets are still showing off their might, and the puppet soldiers who are fighting with people are also shouting and drinking.

Although they knew that even if they didn't need any reason, they might die at the hands of the Japanese or those puppet soldiers, but the people in the provincial capital still began to walk out of their homes - no matter how difficult the world is, don't they continue to beg for a living?

The Deng family also started a new day.

When I woke up in the morning, there were people who put the warm washing water in front of the bed, and the old man Deng Yi began to wash, and after that, he took square steps in the yard, breathing fresh air, activating the muscles and bones, and the people began to sprinkle and sweep......

The capture of the provincial capital does not seem to have much impact on the Deng family.

All of this naturally stems from Deng Fang's early years of studying in the East, not only speaking Japanese extremely authentically, but even having a lot of Japanese friends, many of whom are already well-known generals in the Japanese army!

Therefore, when the city was broken, when the Japanese army came to the door and wanted to do evil, Deng Fang came forward to negotiate a few words, mentioned the names of a few friends, and those Japanese soldiers respectfully retreated without saying anything, and ordered the Japanese puppet army in the city not to harass the Deng family!

Later, after the situation stabilized a little, the Japanese military also wanted to recruit Deng Fang to become a member of the maintenance association to help the Japanese army comfort the people in the city.

Deng Fang declined, after all, he didn't know how many tragedies the Japanese had caused since the start of the war.

He just wants to protect himself, but he doesn't want to be a traitor at all!

The Japanese were very unhappy, but in the end they didn't make it too difficult, as if the Deng family didn't exist!

Therefore, compared with the panic of the people in the city, the Deng family is still living like a paradise in this provincial city, and has not been disturbed in the slightest.

"Dad, it's time to eat!"

With a crisp cry, Deng Ying, a girl of eighteen or nineteen, appeared in the courtyard and beckoned Deng Fang to breakfast.

"Hmm!"

Deng Fang replied sullenly, slowly paced into the dining room, drank porridge with side dishes, and the corner of his eyes fell on his daughter from time to time.

"Dad, do I have something on my face?" Deng Ying asked.

"No—you're looking more and more like your mother!"

Deng Fang sighed lightly, thinking of his wife who had been dead for many years, and then looked at his daughter's delicate face, and was worried - born in troubled times, the more beautiful a girl's home is, but the more dangerous it is, how can he not understand this truth?

Deng Ying obviously didn't think about it so much, and drank porridge silently, as if she was also missing her mother.

Soon finished breakfast, Deng Ying said in a low voice while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks: "Dad, when those people from the Jindong detachment left yesterday, they said that they would come back today, what are you going to do?" ”

"What to do? Just send it away! Deng Fangdao.

Deng Ying hesitated: "I'm afraid those people won't give up......"

"What if you don't give up?"

Deng Fang said coldly: "I didn't be a traitor, I just want our family to live their lives in peace, what can their Jindong detachment do to me-besides, I didn't promise to help the Eighth Route Political Commissar personally came to find me, not to mention the Jindong detachment that they hadn't even heard of!" ”

"Actually, I think that the Eighth Route Army is fighting devils, and we are all Chinese, so it is also appropriate to help a little......"

Deng Ying whispered, looking at Deng Fang's face.

"You know what!"

Deng Fang said angrily: "I have been in Japan for a few years, I know Japan better than you, do you think that your father is really hard-hearted, and he doesn't care about the life or death of his compatriots at all?" It's just that you don't know at all, our country doesn't have the strength to fight the Japanese at all-let's wait and see what happens, maybe we can survive, but if we take refuge in the Eighth Road, then we don't know how we will die - it doesn't matter if your father and I are old, but what should you do? ”

Deng Ying stopped talking, just nodded silently.

After packing up her things, she took her subordinates out to buy vegetables, and hung a certificate issued by the Japanese around her neck, with this certificate, she did not have to worry about being harassed by the Japanese army and the puppet army.

"This is the baby girl waiting for the master, called Deng Ying!"

At the far corner of the street, Shi Yuan pointed to Deng Ying, who was walking away in the company of his subordinates, and introduced Zhang Ran and the others.

"It's really watery, with those long legs, it can almost kill people......" Wang Wenping said with a long mouth.

Then I got a bang!

Zhang Ran said angrily: "We are the Eighth Route Army, not bandits - you are stunned, pay attention to your words and deeds!" ”

Wang Wenping rubbed his aching head, but he didn't dare to be angry with Zhang Ran, so he stared angrily at Wang Laogui and Shi Yuan, who were snickering on the side, and said angrily: "Laugh at a fart, such a beautiful girl, don't you have any ideas-unless you are not a gentleman!" ”

Wang Lao turned Shi Yuan and immediately looked like a decent man and a gentleman, and said in his heart that every man likes beautiful girls, but we like it in our hearts, why do we want to say it?

Say it, it's obscene!

"Let's go!"

Zhang Ran didn't pay attention to a few people, stretched his neck to observe the surrounding situation, and felt that no one was watching around, so he stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Why are you here again?"

As soon as the old man who opened the door saw Shi Yuan, he said angrily: "Didn't you say it?" Our master doesn't want to see you, so please don't come again! ”

It's about to close!

"Uncle Trouble is accommodating, as long as you can talk to Master Deng in person, whether it succeeds or not, we will promise not to bother him again in the future!"

Zhang Ran spoke, and then stuffed a few pieces of the ocean.

"It's very difficult for me to do this!"

The old man weighed the ocean in his hand, and it was enough for him to pay for three months!

In the end, he gritted his teeth and decided to risk being scolded to let a few people enter the hospital and wait, and report it himself.

Deng Fang sat in the study.

The professional books that he had spent so much effort bringing back from the Orient were once regarded as treasures, but now they had already fallen into a thick layer of dust, and he was in no mood to turn them over at all.

For him, the years of pride and ambition have passed, and now, he just wants to live, for the sake of his precious daughter.

"Sir!"

The old man knocked on the door and came in, and said with a tangled face: "Those people yesterday are here again......"

"Didn't you say you couldn't see it? Just send it away! ”

Deng Fang said unceremoniously.

"There are so many of them, they've already broken into the yard, I can't stop them......"

The old man said: "And their identities are so big that they are noticed by those devils and traitors, and it's not good, or you still see them, master?" They said that as long as you talked to the master, whether it was successful or not, they would not come again......"

"These bastards!"

Deng Fang snorted when he heard this, and finally said: "Let them lead the way, and the rest of the people, don't let them run around at home!" ”

The old man nodded hurriedly and called Zhang Ran, and his heart was happy, after all, he earned three months' wages for nothing!

"Master Deng, excuse me!"

Zhang Ran entered the study and apologized again and again.

Deng Fang closed the door, and then snorted coldly with an unkind face: "I heard that you are from the Jindong Detachment of the Eighth Route Army?" I came back to find me Deng Mou, the head of the Eighth Route Army, who is much more polite than you! ”

Zhang Ran did not respond to Deng Fang's reprimand, but looked at the professional books on those additives, and said happily: "Master Deng, you are studying chemistry - great, our base area is now in need of talents like you, Master Deng!" ”

Deng Fangqi's nose was crooked, and he snorted coldly: "Don't you understand people's words?" ”

"Of course I can understand people's words, I hope you can understand Master Deng too!"

Zhang Ran restrained his smile, turned around and stared at Deng Fang coldly: "Master Deng traveled to Japan and learned a skill, at this juncture when the country is about to be wiped out, do you really just want to sit back and watch, and don't plan to use this ability to contribute to the country?" ”

"I repeat, no matter what you do, I, Deng Fang, am not interested in participating!"

Deng Fang snorted coldly: "If I don't report you to the Japanese army, it's already the limit of what I can do - I hope you don't bother me again!" ”

"I'm annoying you, the Japanese have hit our house, burning, killing and looting, the mountains and rivers cry blood and souls, you are not annoyed by Master Deng, we came to visit like this, you are annoyed?" Zhang Ran sneered.

"I've said everything I need to say, now you can go!"

Deng Fang issued an eviction order, and directly stopped talking nonsense with Zhang Ran.

"Master Deng, I hope you think about it!"

Zhang Ran stood in front of Deng and said with a condescending face: "Don't think I'm begging you for something, I'm telling you a fact - now is the most dangerous juncture for our Chinese nation, no one can sit idly by, the good men are in the bloody field, the fathers and villagers are tightening their belts, and even the girls have already marched on the streets for the country and donated the money to support the Anti-Japanese War...... They all know that the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, and they all know that they must stand up! ”

"Master Deng, you have learned everything, but you don't want to contribute to the country, you do this, there is no difference between you and those traitors, lackeys and traitors-you know?" Zhang Ran said sharply!

"Presumptuous!"

Deng Fang was furious and said, "Why did I betray the country? When the Japanese official Houlu hired me, I refused, because I still remember that I am a Chinese, and I also risked my life! ”

"It's not enough!"

Zhang Ran said coldly: "Everyone is working hard, hundreds of soldiers are dying on the battlefield every day, and there are even more compatriots who die tragically under the butcher's knife of the Japanese - and you, your knowledge, can make a lot of blood not shed, less shed!" ”

"If you don't stand up, many people will die because of you!"

"I don't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me - I think Master Deng should understand this truth!"

Zhang Ran sneered: "You are sitting here, your hands are already stained with the blood of countless warriors and ordinary people-are you still sitting?" Are you still sleeping soundly? ”

"You, you're just messing around!"

Deng Fang was trembling by these words, but he didn't know how to refute it at all.

"Don't have anything to say?"

Zhang Ran sneered, when he was helping the poor, he had a verbal war with so many villagers who were messing around, if he couldn't even say that Deng Fang was a nerd, he felt that he had lived in vain!

"Master Deng, I will ask you one last time, do you want to continue to stand by and watch as a traitor and traitor, or stand up and fight for the country and the nation together with our Eighth Route Army?" Zhang Ran is roaring!

"Get out, you get out of ...... for me"

Deng Fang was out of anger and roared.

"It seems that Master Deng, you really can't understand people's words - then, what happens next, don't blame us for not following the rules!"

Zhang Ran sneered and turned around!

"Who to scare? When Lao Tzu was playing tricks with others, you were still breastfeeding! ”

Deng Fang scolded, he was really mad by Zhang Ran's left sentence of traitor and traitor!

The heart said that he just wanted to survive in troubled times, why did he become a traitor and traitor?
