When General Cai died of illness, Jiawu and Chen Yukun were escorting silk reeling equipment from Shanghai to the Yangtze River in Yueyang. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info doesn't know anything about General Cai's death. When Jiawu heard the bad news, it was midsummer in May of the following year.

After the Spring Festival, Chen Yukun led a group of skilled workers in the original silk reeling factory to work overtime to install and debug new equipment. Half a month later, the machine was running normally. The books of the first quarter showed a net increase of 40,000 oceans in profits.

In the past few months, Jiawu dragged a lame leg, covered in oil, and had a scruffy beard, fighting with the workers at night. Now, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Jiawu shaved his beard, took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, asked the bookkeeper to get a 10,000 ocean silver ticket, rode a fast horse, and went to the county seat to find his old comrades-in-arms.

On the first day of Jiawu's return, the master of Tusi told his son Jiawu - Miao Yidao (his person is good at using the Miao family's knife technique, and it is difficult for local martial arts masters to escape from the first move, so he is known as Miao Yidao) as the county magistrate in Gucheng County. Jiawu was overjoyed, but he was not in a hurry to see him. The old man of Toast asked why, but Jiawu smiled but did not answer, making it mysterious. If you don't say it, you don't say it, Lao Tzu will be quiet. A few days after Qingjing, the old man Toast fell seriously ill. Please come to Langzhong in the county seat to check, and say that there is no big problem, but the past two years of overwork, a period of recuperation will heal. --Jia Wuyang spurred his horse and rushed to the county party headquarters of the county magistrate, who was lying under the warm sun and closed his eyes to recuperate. The county party headquarters is on Hongtaizheng Street, and an ancient and winding bluestone slab official road passes through the city. The office courtyard seems to be in disrepair, with several columns and beams supported by columns, crumbling. The eaves of the pane are moth-eaten and rain-eroded, and dilapidated. But the courtyard is neat, a few banana trees are verdant and dripping, the flowers and plants are fragrant, and they are full of vitality. The big curly-haired poodle lying on the threshold saw the stranger coming, got up and wanted to bark, but when he saw it, he immediately fell silent. The stranger was neatly dressed, and the discipline buckle was also meticulously buttoned, and a gray Zhongshan suit was like the biggest owner here, the county magistrate Miao. A stranger like Bark will not only be kicked, but also scolded for "****** don't know each other". The lion-haired dog stepped aside, scraped the ground with all four paws, pressed its belly to the ground, yawned comfortably, lay down, buried its head between its paws, and snoozed again.

Jiawu is not afraid of bloodshed and fighting, but he is afraid of dogs, and when he saw the lion dog crawling up, he was so frightened that he almost shouted "Miao Yidao". Unexpectedly, the lion dog looked at him a few times and did not bark at him. He also felt that this curly lion dog was really not a thing, and if there was really a villain, wouldn't its owner be caught in his sleep? There are two small wooden stools next to the lazy chair of the county magistrate Miao, one with a teacup and one empty, if someone looks for him at noon, he will sit on this empty small wooden stool. Jiawu sat up lightly and quietly looked at this comrade-in-arms who shared life and death in Wuchang. A green-headed fly flew to the tip of the nose of the county magistrate Miao, fluttering its wings and crawling, sniffing here and there. The muscles on the face of the county magistrate Miao twitched, and suddenly, the county magistrate Miao stretched out his hand and slapped himself in the face. The green-headed fly flew away, and he opened his eyes......

After staring at Jiawu for a long time, County Magistrate Miao was still in a trance. He said, "Oh, that's a dream." When Jiawu and I rushed out of the camp gate, the river bank was fighting against the rumbling of artillery; Suddenly, a shuttle of bullets hit, and two comrades fell beside me, but Jiawu and I were unscathed, isn't this really happening? Hey, I said you, why do you look like Jiawu, you are Jiawu? ”

Jiawu laughed and said, "You **** county magistrate, you slept in a daze during the nap." Take a look, be optimistic, am I Li Jiawu? County Magistrate Miao opened his eyes wide, got up, and hugged Jiawu tightly. The two patted their shoulders and stroked their backs for a while before parting. County Magistrate Miao took a few steps back and said, "Come over, come over." "Hahaha, you **** want to see me laugh." Jiawu straightened his chest and wanted to take a few steps steadily, but his legs were disobedient, and when he walked, he still limped like that. "Hahaha," this time it was the county magistrate Miao who laughed, he squinted his eyes and said to Jiawu: "It's still a cow** is not a cow**, it's the same as Lao Tzu, right?" Come on, come on, let's walk together. ”

Jiawu is lame on his left leg, and Miao County Magistrate is lame on his right leg. As soon as you go, you turn left, and I turn right. The county magistrate Miao said: "Yuan Shikai of ****, I have made ******** with you." The two of them burst out laughing again. After laughing, Jiawu asked, "How do you know that my leg is injured?" "That's what I know? The people of the whole county know. The county magistrate of Miao slapped Jiawu on the shoulder and said, "Proud of you!" Jiawu was confused. He was injured in Yunnan, he didn't say, who knows? Dad doesn't like to be public, either. He knows that. "Don't guess. Kunming, Changsha, and Guangzhou's "South China Daily" and many other newspapers have published a whole page of your deeds of bravely saving General Cai. I'm thinking about waiting for you to come back and hold a grand commendation meeting. You are not only the glory of the Li family, but also the glory of the entire Gucheng County! "Shame, shame. For Commander Cai, my little injury is boiling, and it can be regarded as the light of the commander. Jiawu said, and smiled: "Like you, one leg was almost removed, but few people know about it." ”

"Exactly." The county magistrate of Miao looked up to the sky and sighed, and said: "If General Cai is still alive, Miao is really willing to die for him." Jiawu was stunned and said, "What do you mean, why don't I understand?" ”

"Last November, General Cai died of illness in Fukuoka, Japan, don't you know?"

"Impossible!" Jiawu's face changed suddenly: "Last August, before I returned to Hunan after recovering from injury, I was still drinking with the commander. The magistrate of Miao County led Jiawu to the office, took out a newspaper from the drawer, and said, "Let's see for yourself." Jiawu held the newspaper and burst into tears. He choked up and said: "The untimely death of the commander is a great misfortune for the country. ”

"Mourn and mourn." The county magistrate of Miao took a cup of local century-old traditional tea, put it in Jiawu's hand and said: "General Cai died of illness, don't you know such a big thing?" Where have you been during this time? ”

Jiawu drank a few sips of tea, eased his emotions, and told the story of the experience of most of the year......
