Chapter 922: The Lady Goes Out

The temperature is unstable in the early spring, and the summer is very hot and dry.

Autumn grain is rainy days, winter is warm and snowy, and there are many clouds and fog.

These four proverbs speak of Chongqing's climatic characteristics.

The mountain city of Chongqing is foggy, with an average of 104 days of cloudy and foggy weather a year, which is the city with the most cloudy weather in the world and is a veritable fog capital.

This was the period of the Anti-Japanese War, and the Japanese planes often bombed, and the citizens of Chongqing were not looking forward to sunny days, but rainy days and foggy days. Only rainy and foggy days can ensure the safety of Chongqing.

Chongqing in October, just freed from the scorching heat, drizzle and heavy rain alternately, bringing a touch of coolness to Chongqing, which was suffering from Japanese bombing.

Song Meiling sat in the car and galloped towards Zhang Xueliang's deputy commander-in-chief's residence in Chongqing.

Along the way, the city was full of ruins, and the windows of the buildings were without glass, as if they were a pair of empty eyes, telling passers-by about the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese army in the "May 3rd" bombing and "May Fourth" bombing.

Next to the windowless buildings standing on the ruins are the "anti-war houses" built by residents with wooden sticks and bamboos, and the walls are painted with white gray slogans that read, "The more you bomb, the braver." A group of scouts drenched in wet and pounding around the short wall with bamboo poles.

Song Meiling looked at the wall where the scouts were busy through the glass of the car, and found that there were several broken arms and broken tui hanging on the wall, not to mention the sins caused by the Japanese bombing. It seems that these scouts want to take advantage of the rain to get down the broken arms and broken tui on the wall and bury them.

Song Meiling's eyes couldn't stop crying again.

When the car arrived at Zhang Xueliang's official residence, the guards at the gate stood up and saluted, and then let him go.

Zhang Xueliang's wife Yu Fengzhi has a very good image in the minds of the Northeast Army and even the Chinese people.

Yu Fengzhi had just returned from the United States, and there was still a trace of fatigue on his delicate face. When she saw Song Meiling, she was very affectionate, took Song Meiling's hand and went to the living room, and called the girl to make coffee for Mrs. Jiang.

Song Meiling had something in her heart, but looking at Yu Fengzhi's sincere face, it was not good to brush off her good intentions, so she sat down and asked Yu Fengzhi if her trip to the United States could go well.

Yu Fengzhi went to the United States to accompany his children to school. She and Zhang Xueliang had three sons and one daughter after marriage, the eldest daughter Zhang Luying, born in 1916, the eldest son Zhang Luxun, born in 1917, the second son Zhang Luxuan, born in 1918, and the third son Zhang Luqi, born in 1919, died early at the age of 10. Today, all three children are studying in San Francisco. Zhang Xueliang and Miss Zhao Si also have a son, named Zhang Lulin, who is only 9 years old this year, and studied in Chongqing with Miss Zhao Si.

Yu Fengzhi told Soong Meiling that after Ni Hua's propaganda in the United States, ordinary Americans are now very enthusiastic about supporting China's anti-Japanese war, and newspapers and radio stations in San Francisco have news of China's anti-Japanese battlefield every day. Famous generals such as Liu Yimin and Xue Yue are known to adults and children in the United States.

Hearing Yu Fengzhi talk about Ni Hua and Liu Yimin, Song Meiling's heart was bitter. The husband has just demoted Liu Yimin from lieutenant general division commander to second lieutenant trainee platoon commander, and seeing that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are about to start a dispute again, the little cousin knows, I don't know whether to help Liu Yimin or help himself? It's all Liu Yimin's wolf-hearted, ungrateful, and immortal little cousins who are so outstanding, and they all marry him, and he doesn't know how to be grateful, so he will follow it with an iron heart, and he will not die sooner or later! This damn guy, drinking mihun soup, can you do him any good! It's just a good for him, can it be more valuable than us marrying our little cousin to him? If he can assist the chairman of the committee like his eldest brother-in-law, one is in charge of the army, and the other is in charge of money, and he is still worried that the devil will not get out? Not to mention what to be afraid of, the Sichuan Army, the Gui Army, the Dian Army, the Jin Sui Army and the Northeast Army.

Thinking about it, Song Meiling hated it, and I couldn't wait to let Ni Hua and Liu Yimin divorce immediately, and not live with this ungrateful guy!

Yu Fengzhi's personal shuffle girl was brought out from the Northeast, very capable, and after a while, the coffee was served, and she didn't forget to say Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. please.

Song Meiling was in no mood to taste coffee at this time, but she had to pretend to be happy. I saw her pick up the delicate coffee cup, quietly stir it with a small spoon, taste it, and said softly: "This coffee is good, the taste is very pure, fragrant, sweet, moderate acid with a slight wine aroma, a taste is irresistible." It's made from the best coffee beans from Conna, Hawaii, right? ”

Although Yu Fengzhi is also a beautiful lady, a scholarly girl, and the former first lady of the Northeast, she is slightly inferior to Song Meiling, who was educated in the United States since she was a child. At the very least, she is not fluent in English. In this era when news is not very developed, there are many books that do not have knowledge that needs to be obtained through travel, and she is far inferior to Song Meiling. Of course, if it comes to the knowledge of running a family, Yu Fengzhi manages Zhang Xueliang and his family, then the knowledge is much richer than that of Song Meiling.

Yu Fengzhi smiled: "The eldest sister is really knowledgeable, but it can open the eyes of the younger sister." My little sister knew that my eldest sister liked to drink coffee, but I didn't understand it, so I specially consulted the children's teachers and bought the most famous coffee in the United States, which I wanted to give to you. I still want to surprise you, who wants to let you taste it in one bite. It seems that this coffee will not work without giving it to you. ”

Yu Fengzhi and Song Meiling were both born in 1897, but Song Meiling was born in March and Yu Fengzhi was born in June. Chiang Kai-shek himself is Zhang Xueliang's eldest brother, and Song Meiling is three months older than Yu Fengzhi, and Yu Fengzhi calls Song Meiling's eldest sister, which is what it should be.

After Yu Fengzhi finished speaking, he called the girl to load all the coffee brought back from the United States into Mrs. Jiang's car.

Yu Fengzhi has been in the marshal mansion of the Zhang family for a long time, and he is the best at dealing with Zhang Zuolin and his wives, and he is also the most pleasing to Zhang Zuolin.

I heard that when Yu Fengzhi's father Yu Wendou was the president of the Lishu County Chamber of Commerce, he used to take care of Zhang Zuolin, who was still a beard. Later, Zhang Zuolin overheard the fortune teller say that Yu Wendou's daughter Yu Fengzhi "has a deep fortune and is a phoenix's life", so he made a grand wish that if he makes a career in the future, he must marry Yu Fengzhi as his daughter-in-law.

Zhang Dashuai really made a fortune in the future, so he married his son Zhang Xueliang as a daughter-in-law. Yu Fengzhi is 3 years older than Zhang Xueliang, and Zhang Xueliang, who is inclined to marry and love freely, hates his father for arranging his marriage, and does not agree. Zhang Zuolin, who was like a murderer, had no choice but to say to his son: "Your original partner in the main room must listen to me." If you don't agree to the old-style marriage, after you and the daughter of the Yu family get married, you can call your daughter-in-law to follow. If you look for another woman outside, I can leave it alone. Zhang Xueliang had no choice but to agree.

What Zhang Xueliang didn't expect was that after the beautiful and intelligent Yu Feng passed through the door, she was dignified, introverted, benevolent and righteous, and won praise among the people of Shuaifu and Fengtian City, and Zhang Xueliang had to call her eldest sister.

Yu Fengzhi, who was thoughtful, went to the United States for a trip, and when he came back, he must have brought a gift to Chiang Kai-shek's husband, this coffee was a gift she carefully prepared, which was determined before the trip, but it was not known by the teacher who asked the child.

As soon as she came back, Song Meiling came to visit, and under the movement of Feng Zhiji, she told the story of her trip to the United States in 1510.

Song Meiling was in a hurry, because the Central Military Police Corps commanded by Chen Cheng was rushing to Zhang Xueliang's residence, and she had to get Yu Fengzhi and Miss Zhao Si away first, so that Chen Cheng and them could move.

Song Meiling took a few sips, put down the coffee cup, interrupted Yu Fengzhi's words, and said, "Why didn't you see Sister Qixia?" ”

Qixia is the nickname of Miss Zhao Si and Zhao Yidi.

Yu Fengzhi blushed and said, "In the room, right?" I called her out. ”

Song Meiling nodded.

Miss Zhao Si and Zhang Xueliang's love affair shocked the whole of China, and it was at the cost of not being famous for life that year, and they were accepted by Yu Fengzhi. When she was in Shenyang, Miss Zhao Si lived in the "Golden House" built for her by Yu Fengzhi, and accompanied Zhang Xueliang as a secretary. It is now the period of the Anti-Japanese War, and the Japanese aircraft bombed Chongqing indiscriminately, resulting in a housing shortage in Chongqing, and Miss Zhao Si also took her son to live in Zhang Xueliang's official residence.

It didn't take long for Miss Zhao Si to come out, walk up to Song Meiling and give a blessing, shout Mrs. Jiang is good, and she was busy cooking coffee for Song Meiling again.

Song Meiling stopped Miss Zhao Si and said: "Two sisters, Han Qing accompanied the chairman to Guilin, and Chief Bai gave a speech saying that the Japanese army seemed to have signs of launching an offensive against Guinan, and Han Qing accompanied the chairman to discuss with Chief Bai. Feng Zhi's sister had just returned from the United States, and when she left, the chairman of the committee explained that we should come forward to entertain the wives of the envoys of various countries in China, accompany them to have a meal, and introduce them to the situation of China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, with the purpose of contacting each other. I thought about it in the Songting Pavilion of Huangshan, and the eldest sister, the second sister and Mr. He Xiangning had already gone. I'm here to pick you up. Let's talk about it first, you don't have to worry about the situation of the domestic anti-Japanese war, and my second sister and I will do it. Feng Zhi's sister exchanged views with the wife of the American ambassador, mainly talking about her feelings in the United States, so that she could feel close to us. Qixia sister and Tan Xiang are responsible for arranging for them to visit Huangshan, and the route must be carefully surveyed to ensure safety. We're all too old to run, so it's up to you to do these things. ”

Tan Xiang is the daughter of Tan Yanhong, the former chairman of the National Government and the premier of the Executive Yuan, who died, as well as the goddaughter of Song Meiling and the wife of Chen Cheng. That's also a powerful woman and a famous woman.

is a good Song Meiling, worthy of being the first lady, and she makes up all the lies. really fulfills the old saying: If you want to know, sleep with the master!

At the time of the national disaster, the soldiers fought bloody battles on the front line, Chongqing was often bombed by Japanese planes, and even Song Meiling often went to the front line to work in the army, and was injured and almost died. Who in Chongqing doesn't know that Madame Chiang is a heroine? Yu Fengzhi and Miss Zhao Si didn't want to be like Song Meiling, go to the front line to work and cheer for the soldiers. It's a pity that although her husband is the deputy commander-in-chief, she is the deputy commander-in-chief who sits on the cold bench, and no one dares to approve the two of them even if they want to go to the labor army? Now that the opportunity has come, and it is a task that must be completed, Yu Fengzhi and Miss Zhao Si both moved their faces reddened, and their breathing became short.

Yu Fengzhi also served as the first lady of the Northeast after all, although she was moving, she could still handle it, but she just asked Song Meiling if she needed to bring toiletries.

Song Meiling replied that she might have to stay in the mountains for two or three days, and it was best to bring toiletries and a change of clothes, and let the personal maid and the guards follow.

Miss Zhao Si attended this kind of event for the first time, and her heart was moved, thinking that after this event, her identity would be recognized by Chiang Kai-shek's husband, and she would no longer have to be Zhang Xueliang's secretary. After listening to Song Meiling's words to Yu Fengzhi, she ran back to clean up in a panic. It didn't take long to pack up and let the shinu come out with her luggage.

When she got into the car, Miss Zhao Si remembered to tell Song Meiling and Yu Fengzhi that her son was going to school, and whether she could bring her son Lu Lin with her.

Song Meiling didn't want the children to witness the grudge between adults, but as soon as she thought that she would be raided by the military police immediately, she agreed to Miss Zhao Si's request, turned to the school, picked up the child, and drove to the Songting Villa in Huangshan.

Song Meiling, Yu Fengzhi, and Miss Zhao Si took one car, and Yu Fengzhi and Miss Zhao Si's Shi girl and guards took two cars, followed Song Meiling's Jingwei convoy, and drove towards Huangshan.

Along the way, the three of them talked and laughed, teasing the children, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

When I arrived at Songting Villa, He Xiangning, Song Qingling, Song Ailing, and Tan Xiang were all there, and they were shushing together, and the atmosphere was getting better and better.

Saying that Song Meiling lied is indeed a bit wronged her. She really wanted to invite the wives of the envoys in Chongqing to Songting for a meeting, He Xiangning and Song Qingling still did not know about the changes in the official residence, and the notice they received was to come to discuss and exchange with the wives of the envoys in China to publicize the War of Resistance. Only Song Ailing and Song Meiling know the inside story.

Just when Song Meiling invited Yu Fengzhi and Miss Zhao Si to Huangshan, Chen Cheng commanded the Central Military Police Corps to surround Zhang Xueliang's official residence and guard battalion, as well as the logistics organs and offices of the Northeast Army stationed in Chongqing.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Xueliang's family and subordinates in Chongqing were all controlled.

At the same time, Song Ziwen and Zhang Qun went to the Army General Hospital to direct the rescue of Zhang Xueliang.

Zhang Xueliang, although he lost the Northeast, although he is a good woman, he is righteous to his friends and is worthy of deep friendship. Both Song Ziwen and Zhang Qun were good friends with him. Especially Zhang Qun, the change of banner in the Northeast was single-handedly promoted by him. It can be said that Zhang Qun and Zhang Xueliang are close friends. It is precisely because of this relationship that when he was in Chiang Kai-shek's office, Zhang Qun kept a straight face and did not say a word.

When everything was arranged and the operation was successfully completed, Zhang Qun said to Song Ziwen: "I think there is absolutely something strange here, how could Han Qing shoot the chairman of the committee?" You know, if the chairman doesn't trust Han Qing, where can he enter the chairman's office with a gun! ”

Song Ziwen smiled bitterly: "The chairman's temper itself is impatient, and he has a mentality of hating iron and not steel. You know Han Qing better than me, and he is also a casual person. The two of them are together, and if there is an argument, they must not give in to each other. Alas, this is not a blessing for the country! When Han Qing wakes up and his injuries are stable, let's ask again! ”

Zhang Qun shook his head and sighed: "It's an eventful autumn, and the house leaks every rain." Woe to you! ”
