PS: Subscription supports genuine glorious

Song Xiaofei and Duan Qirui have both taken concubines, and there is one person who is in a hurry, she is Tian Qifeng. She followed Zhang Zuolin from the northeast to Beijing, and she has always been determined to make a promise to her. At that time, men kowtowed together as brothers, and women kowtowed together as sisters. This matter, as the extremely smart Zhang Zuolin, is clear in his heart. Tian Qifeng, on the other hand, was determined to be Zhang is acquiescence, so he followed him all the time, waited for him, wholeheartedly helped Zhang Zuolin take care of his family, and sometimes went to see the young Zhang Xueliang, as if he was a member of the Zhang family. But whenever Tian Qifeng mentioned marriage, Zhang Zuolin said that "Mrs. is still there", "when we are brothers and sisters" and other excuses to perfunctory.

Zhang Zuolin's original wife is Zhao Chungui, a native of Zhaojiamiao in Montenegro County, married Zhang Zuolin at the age of 21, and has been following Zhang Zuolin in his early years, solving problems for Zhang Zuolin, and mediating the relationship between Zhang Zuolin and his brothers. Zhang Zuoxiang, Tang Yulin and others often praised: "My sister-in-law is virtuous, and my eldest brother can achieve great things, thanks to my sister-in-law." After giving birth to her eldest daughter Zhang Shoufang, she had a son Zhang Xueliang, and she has always opposed Zhang Zuolin's concubine.

But the reason why Zhang Zuolin has always rejected Tian Qifeng is that he feels in his heart that there seems to be something missing between him and Tian Qifeng, and he can't say what is missing. However, his guard officer and good brother Chi Baotian used to be a cannonner under Zhang Zuolin, because Tian Qifeng often went to Zhang Zuolin, and Chi Baotian gradually developed a good impression of the infatuated Tian Qifeng.

The time for the issuance of the new marriage law is getting closer and closer, and Tian Qifeng has been waiting for Zhang Zuolin to take the initiative to come to the door to say goodbye. Zhang Zuolin has not moved. That afternoon, a few white clouds floated in the sky, and the magnolia flowers on the streets were blooming. Tian Qifeng, who couldn't bear it, went to the street to buy a few strings of rock sugar gourds and two catties of Northeast soju that Zhang Zuolin likes to drink. Go to Zhang's Mansion to find Zhang Zuolin. Zhangfu is located in Baimi Xiejie on the east side of Shichahai Qianhai, which is a courtyard house with three entrances and three exits. Chi Baotian saw Tian Qifeng from afar, greeted him with a smile, and said happily: "Sister Qifeng, are you looking for Brother Zhang again?" He hasn't returned home yet. ”

Tian Qifeng said, "Really? Then I'll go in and wait. ”

Chi Baotian stretched out his hand to stop her and said, "Big brother may not come back until late today." Why don't you do that another day? ”

Tian Qifeng said: "It's okay. I went in first to see my sister-in-law and my little six sons. ”

Xiao Liuzi is Zhang Xueliang's milk name. After speaking, Tian Qifeng was about to enter the door. But Chi Baotian accompanied the smiling face, but he never let her in, and let her another day. At this time, Zhang Zuolin had already gotten along with Lu Yuchun. is preparing to marry Lu Yuchun, Zhang's mansion has been newly painted, and the lights are colorful, and he is ready. Chi Baotian was afraid that Tian Qifeng would know the truth after entering, and he would be sad.

But Tian Qifeng's temperament. It's tough. The more she didn't let her in, she felt very strange, Chi Baotian was obedient to her on weekdays, but at this time she was very abnormal, constantly dissuading her, she wanted to go in and take a look, and angrily scolded Chi Baotian: "What's going on with you today?" Got the wrong medicine? ”

Chi Baotian couldn't help but sigh when he saw that Tian Qifeng was angry. Tian Qifeng glanced into the eaves and door at this time. I found that some happy words were posted on Zhang's house, and I also felt that something was wrong. Like who wants to marry. Zhang Xueliang is still only five or six years old, impossible. So, is Zhang Zuolin going to marry himself? Is he going to surprise me? Thinking of this, Tian Qifeng turned his anger into joy, softened his tone, and asked Chi Baotian: "Zhang Fushang is going to do a happy event?" ”

Chi Baotian nodded, unable to bear to tell Tian Qifeng the truth. Lu Yuchun, whose name is Shouxuan, graduated from Jinling Women's College, is young, gentle, kind, knowledgeable, and knowledgeable, and is Zhang Xueliang's tutor. Many brothers around Zhang Zuolin know that Zhang Zuolin is interested in Lu Yuchun. Lu Yuchun also admires the 30-year-old Zhang Zuolin. The two fell in love. Zhang Zuolin is ready to marry Lu Yuchun before the new marriage law is introduced. For this matter, Zhang Zuolin had an argument with the original partner Zhao Chungui and quarreled several times. Once there was a quarrel in the middle of the night, the two clashed again, and the Zhao family was angry and took Zhang Xueliang back to the old house before Xuanwumen overnight, and the husband and wife separated. But even though Zhao Chungui was so opposed, Zhang Zuolin still refused to give up and insisted on marrying Lu Yuchun. Zhang Zuolin hid these things from Tian Qifeng.

Tian Qifeng thought that Zhang Zuolin was really going to marry her, her heart was sweet, and she had a kind of joy that came from hard work, and she muttered to herself: "Such a big thing, why didn't Yuting tell me in advance." ”

At this moment, Zhang Zuolin came back in a car. He sat in front of the black classic car, got out of the car early, opened the back door, and Lu Yuchun, who was wearing an embroidered cheongsam, walked out slowly, holding Zhang Xueliang's little hand. Zhang Xueliang was wearing a small suit, combing his hair in the middle, his hair was black, and he was very energetic. There were tears on his little face. Apparently just cried. Zhang Zuolin just went to Zhao Chungui to pick up Zhang Xueliang.

Zhang Zuolin greeted Lu Yuchun in the car very gentlemanly, this scene made Tian Qifeng stunned all of a sudden, she couldn't imagine that Zhang Zuolin, who often talked about "damn it", still had such a gentle side. Such a gentle action of opening the car door, with a spring-like gentleness hidden in his eyes, has never been shown in front of Tian Qifeng. The can of Northeast soju in Tian Qifeng's hand "snapped" and fell to the ground, shattered, and the bitter wine spilled on the ground and slowly flowed into the ditch next to it.

Zhang Zuolin only found Tian Qifeng standing outside the door of Zhang's mansion at this time, he walked over without changing his face, and arched his hand towards Tian Qifeng, "Brother Qifeng, what wind blew you here today?" ”

Tian Qifeng did not speak. At this time, Lu Yuchun took Zhang Xueliang's little hand and walked over, and Zhang Zuolin introduced: "Come, let me introduce you to you, this is the teacher of Xiao Liuzi, Miss Lu." This is my sworn brother, Tian Qifeng. ”

Lu Yuchun gave Tian Qifeng a salute, lightly opened his lips, and said with a smile: "I often hear Brother Zhang mention you, fortunately!" ”

Tian Qifeng glanced at Lu Yuchun, this little girl is really handsome, with a round face that is red and fluttering, with short hair that was popular at the time, "student hairstyle", and a bumpy figure in front of the embroidered cheongsam, which has a very feminine charm, and a light perfume smell on her body. Tian Qifeng thought to himself, if he was a man. I'll love her too. She glanced at Chi Baotian again, and Chi Baotian had already lowered his head because he had just lied. Don't dare to look directly into Tian Qifeng's eyes. Tian Qifeng suddenly understood that Zhang Zuolin was going to take a concubine, but the bride was not her.

A sudden rise of hope and then disappointment in the heart can be more painful than no hope at all. It's like you like someone. If the confession is directly rejected, it may not leave any regrets, if it is two people who have been dating for a while. And then I can't go on, and this kind of love will be unforgettable. Tian Qifeng's mood fell from the peak of joy to the trough. It's almost June, but there is a chill in my heart. Then. She was completely confused. The eyes are dull. Occasionally, he didn't take care of Lu Yuchun beside him.

Tian Qifeng and Lu Yuchun stood together, and Zhang Zuolin realized at this time that there was still something missing between himself and Tian Qifeng. Compared with Lu Yuchun, the most important thing for Tian Xiaofeng is the lack of femininity. For thousands of years, Chinese women have been the embodiment of gentleness and kindness in the minds of men. For a traditional man like Zhang Zuolin, a gentle woman is a smart woman. A gentle woman will attract his affection, and a gentle woman will make him unconsciously want to protect her. A gentle woman will not put pressure on him. In the eyes of a gentle woman, he is a hero, he is her dependence; A gentle woman will inspire him to move forward bravely and be invincible! Zhang Zuolin saw that Tian Qifeng was wrong, so he beckoned Chi Baotian to send Tian Qifeng back: "Send Brother Qifeng back to rest for me, and take my car." ”

Chi Baotian was naturally willing, so he ran over, opened the car door, and asked Tian Qifeng to get in the car. This time, Tian Qifeng did not refuse. Her heart was cold, and she felt as if her body had been struck by a bolt of lightning, and she was unconscious. The indescribable pain in her heart made her tremble.

On the way back, Chi Baotian apologized to Tian Qifeng, who was sitting next to him: "Qifeng Meizi, I shouldn't have lied to you just now." I just don't want to see you so sad. But I didn't expect that what was going to happen happened after all. ”

Tian Qifeng was still immersed in the pain just now, and ignored Chi Baotian. Chi Baotian was anxious and said, "Sister Qifeng, you have something to say, you can beat me and scold me." ”

Tian Qifeng still didn't say anything. When the car was about to arrive at Tian Qifeng's house, Tian Qifeng opened his mouth and said softly: "Brother Baotian, you tell me the truth, are Brother Zhang and Lu Yuchun about to get married?" How did they meet? ”

Chi Baotian said: "Sister Qifeng, why do you ask knowingly and ask for trouble. Don't think about anything and go home early to rest. ”

Tian Qifeng said three words coldly: "Tell me." ”

After getting out of the car, the two passed by a river, and Chi Baotian had no choice but to tell Tian Qifeng what he knew. When Tian Qifeng heard this, his heart became even more uncomfortable, and hot tears continued to flow from the corners of his eyes to his face. This is the first time she has shed tears since she met Zhang Zuolin, her liver and intestines were broken, she lay on Chi Baotian's shoulder, her eyes were red, and she cried. Chi Baotian didn't know how to comfort Tian Qifeng for a while, and when she finished crying, he spoke: "I know that sister, you are very sad." But we all know Brother Zhang's personality. Definitely will not accept strong twisted melons. Go back and get some rest. ”

Tian Qifeng returned home, lay on the bed, recalling the picture of his birth and death with Zhang Zuolin in Northeast China and Russia, he was in a trance and couldn't sleep.

After Chi Baotian sent Tian Qifeng home, he went to report to Zhang Zuolin and told Zhang Zuolin about Tian Qifeng's situation in detail. When Zhang Zuolin heard Tian Qifeng crying on Chi Baotian's shoulder, he said "oh" and glanced at Chi Baotian, this Chi Baotian, although he looks average, but he is also a Northeast man with five big and three thick, maybe he and Tian Qifeng are suitable, so he had a whim, and said: "You haven't asked for a wife yet, so you want to go to Tian Qifeng's house to propose marriage." I can lend you a sum of money, and you will marry him back home. ”

Chi Baotian touched his head and said, "Brother Zhang, don't be joking. ”

Zhang Zuolin's face sank and said, "What, you don't want to?" ”

Chi Baotian said: "I am willing. But Qifeng only has the eldest brother in his heart. I'm afraid I'm not worthy of her. ”

Zhang Zuolin touched his beard and said, "It's okay, I'll be the master of this matter, so it's decided." ”

May 24 is a day of great joy for Zhang Zuolin. On that day, according to Zhang Zuolin's arrangement, Chi Baotian also brought a generous gift and went to Tian Qifeng's house to propose marriage. However, Zhang Zuolin and Chi Baotian's behavior completely angered Tian Qifeng, and Chi Baotian just entered Tian Qifeng's house and explained his intentions. Tian Qifeng pulled out the black-shelled pistol he was carrying, and fired two shots at Chi Baotian's chest with a "bang", Chi Baotian was caught off guard, his body was crooked, and he fell on the chair, this "love" bullet killed him. His hot blood flowed slowly from the bullet hole in his chest, he had a pair of bull's eyes, looking at Tian Qifeng's trance-like face before he died, this woman he loved deeply, at the last moment, he didn't look at him, turned around and left Tian's house, took a pistol, and went straight to the direction of Zhang Zuolin's mansion.
