Devil (1) (259)
A few children came to him out of breath, and their little faces turned red, among which Peng Peng, who was out of breath, was even more obvious. And everyone's eyes were full of horror, and their mouths said:
"Devil - devil - here it is!"
"It's—it's a devil!"
"What's going on, it's coming at this time?!" Old lady Wu frowned and muttered to herself.
Wu Long was stunned and said: "Why did you still recruit the devil, it seems that this day is not a good luck!" Everyone should be in good spirits, don't panic. Be vigilant, if you dare to make trouble, let them leave without thinking about it! ”
Zhu Le asked in a panic: "Do you need to strike the gong?" ”
"Knock on the ass, it's all in front of you!" Wu Cheng scolded him, and really wanted to kick him.
At this time, Wu He and Wu Jia also came to everyone nervously, and before they could speak, they heard the neighing of horses, and then there were four tall horses walking side by side in Cangkou, and immediately there were four people in Japanese military uniforms, and they carried spears on their shoulders, followed by two black cars walking slowly, and they were also followed by four Japanese soldiers on horseback and carrying guns.
"Grandpa, what should I do?" Wu Long came to his grandfather and asked in a low voice.
Old lady Wu said calmly: "Don't panic, act when you see the opportunity, let's see what they want to do here." ”
When Hua Rui saw that it was really Japanese, she was naturally as happy as if she had seen her mother's family. Then, what awaits her should be how to act next, the flame of hatred burns one of her hearts wantonly, and whether Inukai Saburo's revenge will be avenged depends on her. It's just a pity that the culprit Tao Zhenkun is not in the village! While she was silent, appreciative, excited, and gritted her teeth, she couldn't help but hesitate with a lot of concern.
At this time, Jiao Heng was standing beside her, with a nervous expression and angry eyes in his eyes, he had the same mood as Ma Zhanshan, and he had an unforgettable hatred for the Japanese devils, because his family died under the bombing of Japanese fighters. Seeing the devil brazenly coming, he and Ma Zhanshan, who was present on the side, also had the same cowardly malaise, and did not dare to take rash revenge, the aggressor is the common enemy of the Chinese!
The four Japanese soldiers in yellow military uniforms in front of them grabbed the reins of the war horses and turned over and jumped down, pulling the horses and lining them on both sides in an orderly manner, looking mighty and respectful, with the standard discipline and quality of soldiers. Although he does not look around, he can also see that he is very vigilant. After the two cars braked and stopped, the four Japanese soldiers behind also jumped off their horses.
As soon as the front door of the car at the beginning opened, it was a middle-aged driver, who opened the back door and stood respectfully aside. Then came down from it a man in a greasy and powdery suit and leather shoes, wearing sky blue clothes on his body, not fat or thin, straight and tall, with a red tie, this person is the Long Hanyu that some people have seen, Nijiao's fiancé, is the groom official who came to marry the bride, and he has been here several times on Wu Yuanzu's birthday. He was personable, elegant, fair-skinned, and indeed a man worthy of beauty. Even Tao Zhenzong, the number one handsome boy in the village, saw it, and he was a little ashamed of himself in comparison, and his chic and romantic temperament could not be compared!
As soon as the other door opened, there was a girl with permed shawl hair. She looks like she is seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and she is also a dazzling beauty. She was dressed in a goose yellow hunting suit, with a thin waist of willow, a beautiful red hat, and black leather boots. A typical goose egg face, with skin like congealed cream, white teeth and red lips, but in her pupils, there was a compelling indifferent light, making people hardly dare to look directly.
Who could this glamorous girl be? Including the people of the Wu family, they all feel strange, they don't look like Japanese women in terms of clothing, and the people of the Wu family just know that the Long family also has a daughter, and I heard that she studied in the UK. Even if someone had seen her when she was a child, it would no longer be familiar after a few years.
As soon as the second car door opened, the driver who came out was a young man, and he saw Long Hanyu quickly stepping forward and opening the back door, looking very enthusiastic. Out of it came a medium-sized, Sven man in his thirties, dressed in a gray suit, wearing a top hat, a dough face, and gold-rimmed glasses, with two small black mustaches on his lips. Judging from these points, his first instinct is that he is Japanese. He looked around, and now the gongs and drums were silent, and the joy of the people had been replaced by the horror written on his face, and the corners of his mouth pulled into a subtle smile of contempt.
The driver took out two boxes of seemingly expensive gifts from the trunk and carried them in his hand.
Long Hanyu and this person who seemed to have an identity came to Old Lady Wu together, and the cold-faced girl also stepped forward.
Long Hanyu said respectfully: "Grandpa, father, second uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, eldest brother, let me introduce to you, this is my Japanese friend Hashimoto Kizo, the general manager of the Japanese Datong Trading House in the county town. This is my sister Xinhui, who has just returned from studying in England. This time my father sent us to marry—"
"Japanese, not welcome here!" Old lady Wu said bluntly and unceremoniously, obviously very dissatisfied with the uninvited Japanese, and also hostile.
Long Hanyu was immediately embarrassed.
Hashimoto took off his top hat, revealing his shiny back. He bowed deeply, stretched out his hand towards Old Lady Wu, and said in fluent Chinese: "Despicable Hashimoto Musan, I have heard Han Yujun mention many times that the old man is highly respected, and he admires himself in this picturesque mountain forest. There is plenty of food and clothing, there is no slavery and taxes, and generations of people have lived in seclusion, hunting and farming for a living. Nowadays, looking at the huge China, it is very rare to have a peaceful life here. Especially the old man's four-room house, the joy of inheriting the family, is really enviable! On the day of Han Yujun's wedding, I took the opportunity to come to the meeting and see the demeanor of the old gentleman's fairy wind bones, which was really a blessing for three lives. Take the liberty to come, there is a lot of disturbance, please Haihan! Take care of it! ”
Old Lady Wu didn't shake hands with him, but he leaned on crutches with both hands and said with a cold expression: "How dare you!" The old man has lived in the mountains and forests for a long time, and he does not ask about the world. The country is in trouble, a corner of peace, there is a heart to repay the effect, but it is inadequate, and it is worthy of being the descendants of Yan and Huang! A person who is about to be born cannot bear to watch the great rivers and mountains of the motherland being eaten by the invaders, and the people are living in dire straits, but he can only feel sorry for himself in vain, and feel helpless! With all due respect, in this troubled world of persecution, I don't dare to do things that humiliate the lintel of the ancestors. Today, thanks to the blessing of our ancestors, generations of people have lived and worked here in peace and contentment, and it seems that the good days here are coming to an end! I don't know what your Excellency is doing with your troops? ”
This outspoken frankness and backbone of his words did not mean to give in cowardly under the obscenity of the Japanese. In this way, Long Hanyu was even more unnatural, and there was no doubt that he was accused of colluding with the Japanese.
Hashimoto Kizo was not in a hurry or annoyed, he still looked polite, but said with a smile: "It can be seen that the old gentleman is open-minded, worried about the country and the people, and is worthy of admiration." But please don't misunderstand, the contemptible people came this time, one is to visit the old man, and the other is to protect all the way, now bandits are rampant, in order to prevent accidents, it will help Han Yujun marry smoothly and safely, and there is no other intention. Please rest assured that the Japanese Empire is invincible in all its armies, and that the few bandits and anti-Japanese elements who dare to be our enemies will be exterminated in the near future, and that peace and stability will be restored to the Great Manchukuo and that the common prosperity of Greater East Asia will be truly realized in the near future. There is an old Chinese saying that I admire, 'Those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me perish'. As long as you don't oppose us, and know that obedience is a good citizen, a friend to us, and we will—"
Old lady Wu said angrily: "If there is no aggression and oppression, where is the bandit and anti-alliance? ”
"The old gentleman's words are really aggressive."
"That's because you've deceived people so much."
"Turning people away is not hospitality."
"It's not a matter of fact."
Wu Jinlu on the side was afraid that his father would anger the Japanese and bring disaster to the village, and he was also worried that his daughter's marriage would be ruined, so how could he choose someone to marry? I am also afraid that I will offend the Long family and the Japanese because of this. So, he said, "Dad, no matter what, you are a guest from afar, and you can't be lazy, and if you have something to say, you see——? ”
"Humph!" Old lady Wu glanced at Long Hanyu, who was blushing and thick-necked, with indifferent and sharp eyes, and then looked at the people who came to greet relatives in this battle, whether they were coming to welcome relatives or robbing relatives? He really didn't agree to marry his eldest granddaughter to someone who had something to do with the Japanese, but something happened and he had to barely cope. He paused on his crutches on the ground and turned to walk out into the yard.
The appearance of the Japanese made people scared and disappointed, and at the same time made the Wu family lose its former majesty!
