Chapter 818: Family (1)
However, after being subtle, Li Ziyun dragged Li Ziyuan aside, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I heard from the people of your corps at the military region headquarters that you passed by our hometown when you marched. Now that our hometown is in your jurisdiction again, do you kid go back and see? How is our dad now? Did you also go to Taiwan? ”
Regarding Li Ziyun's inquiry, Li Ziyuan looked dazed. Indeed, when his army marched into Chengdu, it passed by his hometown in this life. Now my hometown is also within the scope of my own jurisdiction. But he never thought about going back to see his home in this life. Because he doesn't admit it at all, his home in this life is his own home.
Li Ziyun didn't feel at home like him, and he knew that his troops were passing by his hometown, so he would definitely ask. At least what happened to his parents, Li Ziyun is still quite worried. It's just that after seeing Li Ziyuan with a blank face, Li Ziyun also understood that Li Ziyuan didn't go back at all.
Li Ziyun, who also knew how much Li Ziyuan had suffered in that family, didn't want to dig too deep into Li Ziyuan, so he could only kick him hatefully. This younger brother has a different experience from himself, and he probably doesn't feel any sense of that family at all. If you don't look at it, you can't say that it's all his reason.
can only blame those who didn't treat him as a family member at all, and even only regarded him as a family member who could have no one, and hurt him too deeply. Li Ziyuan has no feelings for that home, and he doesn't even want to take a look, and Li Ziyun is not incomprehensible. Li Ziyun knew that this was somewhat difficult for a strong man.
But Li Ziyun also thinks that you are now a general, and a general must have the mind of a general. No matter what happened to those family members back then, they are your family after all. In the past, it was thousands of miles away, and it was in the midst of war, so it was okay not to take a look. Now that home is in your jurisdiction, and you don't even look at it, Li Ziyun can't let go of it.
However, Li Ziyun didn't know, Li Ziyuan didn't tell the truth. It is true that he did not go back, but when he was taking a short break in his hometown on the way to the army, Li Ziyuan met his third brother at the location of the military headquarters. It's just that although he recognized that person, Li Ziyuan didn't bother to deal with that guy at all.
And Li Ziyuan has been away from home for so many years, and he has had so many experiences, and his appearance has long been different. His third brother, who is pampered and has not changed much in appearance, did not recognize him even if he was face to face. People didn't recognize him, and Li Ziyuan himself naturally didn't, so he hurried to say hello to himself.
Even in an anti-bandit operation, the headquarters set up by the troops for Li Ziyuan set up their homes. It's just that Li Ziyuan walked outside the command department, saw the location of the command department, and immediately asked people to move. He would rather have his headquarters in a small hotel than go back to that home again.
At that time, when the family heard that a senior leader of the People's Liberation Army was coming, they were already waiting to greet him. But he just went outside the door, and he didn't even go in to take a look, so he directly chose to turn around and leave, and he didn't even go to see a family member. Only an old porter who had served in that home for decades might even recognize him when he saw him.
However, Li Ziyuan didn't care about whether anyone recognized him or not. What if you recognize it? That home, for me, is nothing at all except a nightmare in my heart. He didn't want to contact anyone in that family, including the father Li Ziyun said.
Seeing each other but not recognizing each other means that there is no deep conversation. The current Li Ziyuan, although there is no need to worry about the past for a long time. But it doesn't mean that he will treat everything as if it never happened, and go back like no one.
It's just that Li Ziyuan didn't dare to tell Li Ziyun about this at all, because he didn't know whether Li Ziyun's Chaotian Jiao's personality had changed over the years. If Li Ziyun's personality hadn't changed, it wouldn't have been a one-time thing if he knew. That pungent sister, it's strange if she doesn't scratch herself with a face full of flowers.
Li Ziyuan didn't give Li Ziyun the answer he wanted, but he couldn't stand his old boss who was like a crazy man, and forced him to send someone to inquire about the whereabouts of his family. was commanding the troops to suppress bandits, and was responsible for reorganizing the rebel troops, Li Ziyuan, who was really lacking in skills, had no choice but to send someone back to his hometown to inquire.
The order of the old chief and brother-in-law, coupled with the discussion, Li Ziyuan really had no way to refuse. Besides, he was really afraid of Li Ziyun's temper. Now that I'm too busy to do anything, if that Li Ziyun, who doesn't leave his headquarters, follows his ass all day long, who can stand it?
Fortunately, Nanchong is not very far from Chengdu, and sending someone to take a car for two days will run a round trip, or even a day faster. Because it involved the family members of the deputy commander and the head of the Southwest Military Region, the people sent to inquire very carefully and came back to make a detailed report to Li Ziyuan.
once made the most indelible impression on Li Ziyuan, and it was also in the impression that his predecessor left him little at this time, the eldest lady who made the predecessor the most fearful figure, that is, the wife of his father in this life, died as early as during the Anti-Japanese War. As for the cause of death, it is because of some diseases caused by long-term smoking.
And his father, who is now in his sixties, was very unexpected by Li Ziyuan and did not run to Taiwan with the crowd. Not only did he return the plane ticket sent over there, but on the contrary, he also participated in the uprising organized by the Sichuan army. As for the brothers and sisters in the family, there are almost a platoon of brothers and sisters, except for Li Ziyun and himself.
In addition to his third brother in his hometown, there is also a widowed second sister. The rest went to Taiwan and Hong Kong, some never returned, and some were in Chengdu and Chongqing. The youngest brother was betrayed by traitors because he participated in the underground party while studying in Chongqing, and died in the massacre of the Dregs Cave concentration camp.
After receiving the report, Li Ziyuan sighed for a long time, but he was also a little puzzled. He remembered that when he joined the Red Army, the youngest brother seemed to be able to walk at first. But he didn't expect that such a son of an old warlord and a famous landowner in northern Sichuan would actually participate in the revolution and even sacrifice his life
What's even more puzzling is that my cheap daddy. That is, he did not go abroad, nor did he go to Taiwan or Hong Kong, but stayed in Sichuan, and participated in the uprisings of various units of the Sichuan army. This somewhat made Li Ziyuan a little puzzled by what his cheap dad thought.
But he didn't go to see his father who was in his hometown at this time, in front of him as a member of the North Sichuan Travel Agency, but he was always in his hometown and in Nanchong in the future. Instead, he sent his father's address, plus this report, to Li Ziyun. And no matter how Li Ziyun persuaded him, he just refused to see that father, and he didn't even want to mention it.
Originally, Li Ziyun wanted Wang Cheng to persuade Li Ziyuan as well, no matter how much his father did back then, but after all, it was his father, and the two of them couldn't always disagree with each other. It's just that in this matter, Wang Cheng directly stood on the side of his brother-in-law and old subordinate and refused Li Ziyun's request.
Wang Cheng told his wife very directly that Li Ziyuan was already a senior cadre, and he had his own ideas and ideas on how to do it. It's true that he is his old superior, but some things can't be too lenient. Li Ziyuan refused to go, so there must be a reason for his refusal. This matter should not be imposed on others.
For this old superior who has always helped his relatives and not helped after marrying his sister, Li Ziyuan is almost grateful for standing on his side this time. thinks that this old chief, since marrying his sister, is finally more reliable this time.
In fact, Li Ziyun didn't know that Wang Cheng didn't have anything to say about his beloved wife. It can be regarded as Wang Cheng, who has been tested for a long time and has experienced many things, knowing that Li Ziyuan did not go to see that father, in addition to the reasons on the table, there must be other things, and it is definitely not as simple as one thing.
It's just that Li Ziyuan refuses to say, and Wang Cheng doesn't want to interfere too much. Even Wang Cheng knew that if it wasn't for the arrangement of his superiors, it would be a little inconvenient for him to meet that father-in-law. Therefore, Wang Cheng could only vaguely fool around his wife's request, and supported Li Ziyuan with an extremely rare statement.
But although Wang Cheng knew a lot of things in his heart, it was not very convenient for him to meet. But he did not object to his wife, and went to visit his father-in-law. However, Wang Cheng, who also knew that although a large number of bandits had been cleared in Li Ziyuan's defense area, there must still be bandits scattered or lurking, and he also told Li Ziyuan to protect his wife.
It's just that neither Wang Cheng nor Li Ziyuan thought of it. After Li Ziyun went home to visit relatives this time, he brought Li Ziyuan's father when he came back. Of course, the old man knew that his son, who was not to be seen, and even forgot what he looked like, actually became a senior official in the People's Liberation Army, and it was not necessarily impossible for him to take the initiative to ask to see him.
The most important thing is that the military region where Li Ziyuan was located at this time was in the same place as the local party committee and administrative office. In front of the old man of the administrative commissar of the administrative department, when he returned to work at the military region's station, no one could say anything about him. And when the old man came, maybe he was worried that the son would give him a cold face. He also sent a telegram to the political commissar of the Southwest Military Region, that is, Li Ziyuan's old political commissar.
As a result, Li Ziyuan was taken to Chongqing and criticized by the political commissar and the teacher. In particular, the political commissar criticized him for not understanding the united front policy, let alone the principle of putting filial piety first. The past is gone, and he can't hold on to the past, so let him go back to meet his father immediately.
And when he went back, not only to meet his father, but also to appease his father's antagonism because of certain things. In the words of the political commissar and the division commander, it means that family affection must be narrated and work must be done. Li Ziyuan, who was trained by the two old leaders, even if he was reluctant in his heart, he could only reluctantly come back to see the people he didn't want to see.
After returning to the headquarters of the military region, looking at Li Ziyun's triumphant smile, Li Ziyuan frowned and said nothing. As for the father in front of him, Li Ziyuan hesitated, but he was still reluctant, and he could even call his father with great difficulty.
It's just a call for an exit to an exit, but this meeting was not pleasant. The old man's attitude towards Li Ziyuan is still lukewarm. For his address, he just mumbled and fell silent. In fact, Li Ziyuan's father is not really cold, he just doesn't know how to get along with this strange son.
