The thirty-fifth return home
Shen Shaofan since a few days after returning from Chiang Kai-shek's official residence, Mrs. Chiang has been calling him to go back to his hometown to see the girl introduced, Shen Shaofan really can't screw Mrs. Chiang, so he had to take leave from Chiang Kai-shek, take a pistol and drive a few cars back to his hometown together, one to deal with Madame Chiang's nagging, and the other is to take this opportunity to go back to his hometown to see his grandparents and grandparents, and to show filial piety.
Shen Shaofan's hometown is not far from Nanjing, in the middle of Shanghai and Nanjing, called Wuxi, at that time it was called Little Shanghai, also known as the Jiangnan Water Town. Wuxi can be traced back to the end of the Shang Dynasty when Taibo ran south, is a pleasant scenery of the lake and the mountains of a good place. Wuxi has never been a military place, nor is it a place to fight, so there is almost no war in Wuxi, and there is no garrison camped here, and people live and work in peace and contentment, which is relatively stable.
Shen Shaofan drove into Wuxi with a convoy of more than 50 soldiers from a pistol platoon, consisting of jeeps and military trucks, which could not help but make people curious. When the convoy came to the door of the Shen family's mansion, everyone suddenly realized that it was originally from the Shen family, no wonder! The Shen family belongs to one of the largest families in Wuxi, and has been trading silk for a living, although there are thousands of people in the family, but they have not been famous, since Shen Yingshi and Shen Yingchang, the Shen family has been an official, or if he is not a big official, and there are children and grandchildren who are also officials in the government. Let Shen Jisheng, the old man of the Shen family, be proud, this time Shen Shaofan can be said to be an old man who has changed his hometown.
Shen Shaofan's grandfather, the Wang family, is also a big family, in Nanquan is a big landowner, fertile land, hundreds of lakes and hundreds of villages, raising hundreds of families and thousands of township groups. Even the local government has to pay homage; The Wang family is divided into three points, and I heard that Shaofan came back and came to the city to see his little grandson.
Early the next morning, Shaofan was woken up by the morning sound of the pistol platoon. He washed up, put on a white shirt, walked into the courtyard, looked at the busy people, and felt unaccustomed to it, so he walked towards the sound of pistol rehearsals.
Qian Dabao ran over and saluted: "Report! The regiment commander, the pistol platoon of the guard company of the National Youth League, was asking the regiment commander for instructions in the morning. ”
"Good! Where's it! Shen Shaofan said.
"Report to the Captain! Get ready to go for a run! Qian Dabao said.
Shen Shaofan said: "Okay! Qian Dabao! ”
"Yes!"
"Get in the queue!"
"Yes!" Qian Dabao turned backwards and trotted into the team.
Shen Shaofan looked at it and said, "All of them are there." Attention! Turn left! Run and go! Shen Shaofan took the lead, ran first, followed by a string of teams, running on the streets of Wuxi, attracting the attention of hundreds of people.
"That is the little grandson of the Shen family."
"Their Shen family is really capable, and they are all big officials."
"I heard that their Shen family is looking for a daughter-in-law for this little grandson!"
"Really? Whoever can marry into the Shen family will be happy. ”
Shen Shaofan ran around with the soldiers of the pistol platoon, and asked Qian Dabao to take them back to the temporary station, wandering the streets alone, and came to the most lively Chong'an Temple in Wuxi, where he was a market vendor; Vaudeville; Performers; Snacks along with the market.
Shen Shaofan ate some snacks in Chong'an Temple and was about to go home, when he was about to reach the intersection when he was attracted by a noise. It turned out that the local bully was molesting a singing girl in the market, and when I looked closely, the girl was Gu Xiaodie, whom Shaofan met in Beiping, and his father Gu Yitian.
Gu Xiaodie was pushed around in the middle by a group of bullies, and Gu Yitian was hit to the ground by several bullies, and the father and daughter were full of tears, but no one dared to stop them. One of them, who looked like a bully, insisted on hugging Gu Xiaodie and kissing her little face, with extremely nasty words in his mouth: "Little beauty! A small face is good-looking, it is for our uncle Lele. ”
Shen Shaofan stepped forward with a strong stride, grabbed the back collar of the bully, and threw it back, and the bully was thrown by Shaofan with one hand and four feet to the sky. The accomplices on the side saw that it was Shen Shaofan, and they all ran away, and the bully also ran away.
Gu Xiaodie looked at Shaofan's face with a beautiful smile on his face, and Shaofan helped Gu Yitian up and looked back at Fluttershy's heart. When they came to a restaurant and ordered a few dishes, Shaofan asked why they had fallen into the mood and made a living selling songs on the street.
Gu Yitian said: "After we separated from Commander Shen, we went to Baoding, but the war was chaotic, and our livelihood was not good, and when we arrived in Baoding, we had no money every few days." I had to trade the gongs and drums for some money to give to my apprentices to fend for themselves, and Fluttershy and I traveled all the way south to make a living as singers. ”
After listening to this, Shen Shaofan said: "Uncle Gu, now that the world is so chaotic, you and Xiaodie will definitely be bullied if you sing outside, I think you will stay in Wuxi!" Our Shen family is still talking about it here, so we can take care of it. ”
Gu Yitian thought for a while and said, "That's not necessary, we have relatives in Shanghai, we can go to our relatives." ”
Fluttershy looked at her father with some confusion when she heard this. Shen Shaofan thought it was okay, and as he spoke, he took out some silver dollars from his body and handed them to Gu Yitian. Gu Yitian pushed it twice, and he was not polite, and helped Shaofan pour wine while accepting it.
Shen Shaofan couldn't help but get confused after a few cups, and after a while, he was drunk and unconscious, Gu Yitian and Gu Xiaodie helped him into the guest room and put him on the bed.
Fluttershy asks her father, "Daddy! When did we have relatives in Shanghai? ”
Gu Yitian didn't answer, but helped Shaofan take off his shirt and pants and said, "Fluttershy, you will take off your clothes and lie next to Captain Shen later." ”
"What?" Gu Xiaodie was surprised: "Dad! What do you want? ”
Gu Yitian said: "Xiao Fluttershy, my father has been tired of mixing rivers and lakes all his life, and if it weren't for my opium smoke, our Baiyun Cai Butterfly Hall would not have fallen to this point." You're going to be your dad once! ”
"Dad, Head Shen is a good person, we can't harm him like this." Fluttershy said.
Gu Yitian said: "Even if he is a good person, I can rest assured that I will hand you over to him, and my father can enjoy a few years of happiness with you." Hurry up! ”
"Dad, I won't do it!" Fluttershy said.
When Gu Yitian heard this, he immediately burst into tears: "It's not good for your father to have your brothers and sisters gone, you shouldn't touch the big smoke, but your father doesn't want to!" Fluttershy, you are good, as long as we rely on the Shen family, we will have a good life for the rest of our lives. ”
"Dad, I'll make more money to support you anyway. I'm not going to do that! Fluttershy says.
Gu Yitian suddenly knelt down and said, "Daughter, Dad doesn't want to live that kind of wandering life anymore." Even if Dad begs you, if you don't agree, Dad will die in it. ”
"Daddy!" Fluttershy lifted Gu Yitian and nodded silently.
Gu Yitian immediately wiped away his tears and said, "My daughter is good!" I'll go out first! ”
Gu Xiaodie sent her father out of the room, sat next to Shaofan, looked at Shaofan's sleeping appearance, like a cute child, she couldn't bear to hurt him and lie to him like this, but his father was old, and Fluttershy couldn't bear to let his father wander outside anymore. She took off her cheongsam and lay down beside Shaofan, two jade-like delicate hands gently hugged Shaofan's neck, kissed Shaofan's face slightly, and the bed curtain fell.
When Shen Shaofan opened his eyes, he felt a jade hand reach his chest, he was startled, and then turned his head sideways to see that Fluttershy was lying naked next to him, and he couldn't help but sit up and wake Fluttershy up.
Shen Shaofan hurriedly put on his clothes and sat on the side, watching Fluttershy also quietly wear a cheongsam, and the two of them didn't say a word. Shen Shaofan secretly said in his heart: "It's a bad thing after drinking, a bad thing after drinking!" Thinking of this, he walked up to Fluttershy and grabbed Fluttershy's hand and said, "Fluttershy, I'll take care of it, let's go back to my grandfather right away; Grandma said that she would marry you in two days. He left in a hurry.
As soon as Shen Shaofan came home, he said that he wanted to marry a wife, and the two old people's Coke was spoiled, so he asked Shaofan to bring someone to see it the next day, and the next day Shaofan brought Fluttershy and Gu Yitian to Shen's house. Shaofan's grandmother didn't know that she liked Fluttershy very much at first sight, and the girl agreed to their marriage, but Shaofan's grandfather was sympathetic, and although he knew that the Gu family was a drama, he had no objection to finding a fortune teller and picking an auspicious day for the zodiac to help Shaofan and Fluttershy get married. The next few days may be Fluttershy's happiest days, she and Shaofan buy this and that together every day, prepare for this marriage, and the two go to the famous spot of Yuantouzhu in Wuxi for a day. Although Shaofan married Fluttershy when he had a skin-to-skin relationship with Fluttershy, he and Fluttershy are incredibly quiet and relaxed when they are together, and seeing Fluttershy is as uninhibited as seeing a person closest to him. Fluttershy and Wenwen are two different girls, and Shaofan doesn't know how to divide their love and affection, he feels that he is Fluttershy's dependence and Wenwen is his sustenance.
Gu Xiaodie stood on the Changchun Bridge with a beautiful pink paper umbrella and couldn't help but smile when she looked at the beautiful Taihu Lake, Shaofan gently hugged Fluttershy's waist and said, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"I never dreamed I would marry you!" Gu Xiaodie smiled and leaned against Shaofan's broad chest.
Shaofan soothed Fluttershy's little hand and said, "Me! I didn't expect to find a beautiful wife! ”
Fluttershy turned to look at Shaofan and smiled, "I promise you that I will be a good wife." ”
"Fluttershy! I ......" Shaofan thought of Wenwen, and he swallowed half a sentence.
Fluttershy looked at Shaofan and said, "I know you still have a girl in your heart, but I don't mind!" Because I'm a latecomer! If you're with him, I'll get along with her. ”
"Fluttershy! You're such a reasonable girl, but it's unfair to you. Shaofan thought in his heart.
Gu Xiaodie looked at Shaofan and said, "What's her name?" ”
"Who?" Shaofan asked.
Fluttershy smiled mischievously and poked Shaofan with a finger and said, "The guy you had in mind." ”
"Jin Xiwen!" Shaofan replied.
Gu Xiaodie wrote down word by word and looked at it again: "Shaofan! You promised me that you wouldn't think about him from now until we got married. I don't want my husband to have another woman in his mind to marry me. ”
"Good!" Shaofan nodded and said, "I promise you." ”
On the day of the wedding, Shen Shaofan insisted on wearing a military uniform as a groom, and the pistol lined up as the most powerful wedding team in Wuxi, gongs and drums rang out in unison, and firecrackers rang out all the way, so it was not lively. Shaofan uses one of the most traditional Chinese methods to marry Gu Xiaodie into the door, and he is high-headed; sedan chair to welcome relatives; straddle saddle; Over the brazier, worship heaven and earth; There are also a lot of cave houses. Not to mention that the old couple of the Shen family couldn't keep their mouths together, even Shaofan's grandfather and grandmother couldn't keep their mouths together, they finally saw the last grandson complete the major events in life.
Shen Shaofan was busy toasting in the courtyard, and he saw Qian Dabao running in and said: "Tuanzao, block the deputy head of the regiment and Chief of Staff Sun, Deputy Chief of Staff Zhang, Deputy Chief of Staff Chen and ......."
"Knot!" Shaofan interrupted him and said, "You kid must have sold me." Isn't it all here? ”
"All of them are here, even he and his wife are here." Qian Dabao said.
"Oh! Commission! Shen Shaofan was still in a daze and suddenly woke up again and said, "What? Commission? Madam? Hurriedly told everyone present to calm down, adjusted their military uniforms, and ran outside.
The guests present were all puzzled, and they didn't know who the groom was going to pick up, and they were going to run out, only to see a group of soldiers trotting over, standing in two rows facing each other, all with serious and cold faces, motionless, and then listening: "Commissioned to take a seat!" Salute! ”
The guests present were all shocked when they knew it, and all stood up solemnly, some old people didn't know what the seat was, so they asked others, and others told them that it was the current 'emperor', and the old people were stunned when they heard it, and they didn't know what to do, and it was not easy to stand or sit down, so they simply knelt down with Manchu etiquette.
At this time, Chiang Kai-shek walked in in a long coat, followed by a group of officers of the National Youth League, Shaofan, who was on the side and Chiang Kai-shek; Madame Chiang was talking and laughing. When Chiang Kai-shek saw the guests present, he shuddered and told them to sit down, and Shen Shaofan's grandfather; Grandmother; Grandfather; Grandma said hello, then picked up a glass of white water and said, "Shaofan, I wish you a happy marriage." ”
"Thank you, Headmaster!" Shao Fan Dao.
Song Meiling was also quite happy on the side and said, "Shaofan, your speed is too fast!" I just told you that you will be married in a few days, bring the bride out to show us, I heard that it is a great beauty! ”
"Prizes! Overpraise! I immediately went and called her. With that, he immediately took Gu Xiaodie out of the runway house and stood in front of Chiang Kai-shek and his wife to introduce them.
Song Meiling looked Gu Xiaodie up and down and said, "Sure enough, it's a beautiful embryo." ”
Chiang Kai-shek smiled and said, "I passed by here to see how your marriage is going, and I didn't prepare anything for you." Make it up later! ”
"Headmaster, I'm flattered that you can come, what kind of gift do you want?" Shaofan said with a smile.
"Yes, yes!" Song Meiling took off a watch from her wrist and came to Gu Xiaodie's front and said, "Here's this for you." ”
"Madame!" Fluttershy is stupid too.
"Madame! I ......" Shen Shaofan was excited, and he didn't know what to say.
Chiang Kai-shek sighed: "You! ......" Chiang Kai-shek did not continue.
Gu Xiaodie is a smart girl, and she looked at Shaofan and said, "Chairman; Madame, I will let Shaofan go back to Nanjing tomorrow. ”
"Hmm!" Shaofan was startled, and Gu Xiaodie also thought of what Chiang Kai-shek's unfinished words meant, and immediately saluted: "Headmaster!" I will go back to Nanjing with you immediately. ”
"No, you don't! I still want candles in the cave room. Chiang Kai-shek laughed.
Song Meiling said: "Shaofan, your bride is so smart, I really like it, I went back to Nanjing and brought her to the mansion often to sit." ”
"Got it!" Shao Fan Dao.
Chiang Kai-shek saw that the time was almost up and left, and Shaofan knew that the situation in Shanghai and Nanjing was extremely tense now. The principal's special trip to Wuxi this time was not all for congratulations, but also to ask Shaofan not to return to Nanjing as soon as possible, which Gu Xiaodie had already seen. But this is only one of them, and there is another reason, that is, Chiang Kai-shek began to know the strength of Shen Shaofan and the Youth Independent League of the National Revolutionary Army and their role in the party-state, so he specially came to congratulate Shaofan on his new marriage, in fact, it was also to win Shaofan's heart.
Shaofan and his comrades-in-arms also said goodbye, and those comrades-in-arms did come to congratulate him, hurriedly drank a glass of water and wine, and then accompanied Chiang Kai-shek's convoy back to Nanjing. At this time, Nanjing was really nervous, and they didn't dare to delay the overnight journey, for fear that something would happen when they were not there.
