Chapter 429: Celebration Banquet
Dressed in a brand-new silk tuang, the old patriarch of the Luo family put out all the new clothes at the bottom of his box, which shows how much he attaches importance to tonight's celebration banquet.
"Old patriarch, why hasn't this Leng Master arrived yet, could it be that he forgot?"
"Don't talk nonsense, Master Leng is fighting, and he hasn't closed his eyes for a few days and nights, can he be the same as us, besides, isn't it time yet?" Old Patriarch Luo reprimanded.
The Luo family, the four major families in Wuyi Town, is the strongest and is the elder, plus the Luo Lao patriarch is alive and fair, so the four families can get along in harmony.
"Tianxing, have you made an appointment with Senior Commander Leng?"
"It's about six."
"Half past six, that's soon, Master Leng is an anti-Japanese hero, and those who come here today are all the leaders in the town, you must pay attention to this safety issue, you can't make any mistakes, understand?" Old Patriarch Luo asked seriously.
"Dad, you can rest assured, this Nie family restaurant is not open to the public tonight, I transferred half of the guards at home, and they are closely guarded before and after, no invitation post is not qualified to come in, the invitation post is according to the person's hair, one person and one post, no one can replace it." Luo Tianxing explained.
"Or are you thoughtful, is Wanyu here?"
"Dad, do you really want Wanyu to go to ......" Luo Tianxing had some opinions on his father's approach, this was too inappropriate, his own daughter, he didn't know it yet, if he didn't get it right, it would cause a big mess.
"Dad didn't mean to cling, in this current situation, only a gun can ensure the safety of our family." Old Patriarch Luo whispered, "Didn't you see, didn't Nie Renhai of the Nie family also bring Nie Xiaohui?" ”
"Dad, it's still thoughtful." Luo Tianxing quietly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, this ginger is still old and spicy.
Division Commander Leng is so young, he is already a major general, he has a heavy army, and he has a great future, if that daughter's family can marry such a husband, it is the general's wife. I don't have to worry about it in my life.
"Uncle Rob, is Wanyu here?" Nie Xiaohuilian, who was dressed in elegant attire, came in steps, and asked after greeting Old Patriarch Luo.
"Wanyu will be there in a moment. Her temperament is too wild, and I can't control her a little bit, uncle. "Luo Tianxingdao, Nie Xiaohui is too good, especially in business, if he is not a daughter. It must be the helmsman of the next generation of the Nie family.
Compared with her daughter, she pursues freedom, democracy, and popularity all day long, and she likes it, relying on her family. Pet. Love, almost lawless.
"Uncle Rob, Wanyu is lively and active by nature, I heard that she went to work as a newspaper reporter?"
"Nonsense, a girl's house. If you run out every day, it is better to get married early and teach your husband and children. "Luo Tianxing really has a headache.
"Uncle Robert, in fact, I envy Wanyu, I can run around, but I can't." A trace of yearning flashed in Nie Xiaohui's eyes, the Luo family is prosperous, and there is no need to worry about finding a successor, Luo Wanyu has three brothers and an older sister. There are also many cousins, the Nie family is not prosperous, and there is only one brother above her, who is not in good health. It was a bit difficult to take care of the family business, and several uncles were staring at entering the main family.
If she hadn't helped her father support her, it is estimated that the position of the head of the family would have changed hands long ago.
"There is no girl like that, what is there to envy?" Luo Tianxing pouted.
"Dad, you are speaking ill of me in front of Xiaohui again!" A voice with a small emotion, crisp like a yellow oriole sounded behind the two. Who is not the little princess of the Luo family, Luo Wanyu?
Luo Wanyu wore a pair of suspender trousers today, a white shirt, a gray coat, chestnut leather shoes, a peaked cap, braids coiled on her head, hidden in the hat, and a delicate little face with a quirky smile.
The woman dresses up as a man and looks capable.
What's even more surprising is that she still has a camera hanging on her chest, a Leica camera imported from Germany, which cannot be taken down without thousands of oceans.
"Wanyu, why are you wearing such a dress, didn't you make you wear women's clothes today?" Luo Tianxing looked at it and was anxious, how could it be cold to the eyes of the division commander like this.
Even the old patriarch Luo was a little unhappy, she usually did whatever she wanted, and it wasn't for her good that she tried her best, but she didn't know the good intentions of her family at all.
"Wanyu, did you promise grandpa?"
"Grandpa, didn't I promise you, did I come?" Luo Wanyu is still a little afraid of the old patriarch Luo, after all, it is a generation apart, the old man Luo is very strict in governing the family, and there is no junior in the family who is not afraid.
Old Man Luo snorted coldly, with so many people present, he couldn't say anything.
"What a daughter you gave birth to!"
The cold sweat on Luo Tianxing's forehead came down again, what is the matter, he also glared at his daughter with a snort, which means, I will settle accounts with you when I go back.
Luo Wanyu was not worried at all, and pulled Nie Xiaohui to the side to talk.
"It's coming, it's coming, Commander Leng's car is here!"
"Let's go over with the old man to greet him!" Old Patriarch Luo greeted.
Leng Feng got out of the car and saw a group of gray-haired old men walking towards him, one of them was still on crutches, his hair was all white, and he was in good spirits, and hurriedly walked over.
"It's time to break the cold front, let all the fathers and elders come out to greet them in person."
"Master Leng defeated the Japanese invaders and saved the people of Wuyi Town from fire and water, and the old man is grateful and disrespectful on behalf of the people of Wuyi Town!" Old Patriarch Luo bowed deeply first.
"Thank you to Commander Leng for expelling the Japanese and returning me to Wuyi Town!"
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, this is the duty of my generation of soldiers, and I have made my fathers and fellow villagers suffer before." Leng Feng had never encountered such a scene, so he couldn't help but be a little nervous, but when he said it, it was much better.
It's a process of adaptation.
"This is my chief of staff, General Xie Jiyuan......"
Bang!
Everyone felt a flash of white light in front of them, dazzling, as if lightning.
It's a spotlight, and someone is taking pictures.
"Who's taking pictures?"
Guo Weiquan shouted, for the safety of Leng Feng, the security department of the Honorary First Division has strict regulations, and Leng Feng will not take photos unless necessary.
Old Patriarch Luo's face changed slightly, only Luo Wanyu was carrying a camera at the scene, who else could there be?
"Who's taking pictures, I'll ask again?" Guo Weiquan took a step forward, and his right hand had already opened the holster, ready to pull out the gun?
"Wei Quan. Retire. Leng Feng frowned slightly and scolded lightly.
With so many people, once it is not handled well, the relationship between the military and the people will not be good.
"Master's seat. For your safety, the person taking the photo must be found. Guo Weiquan bowed his head and said.
"Senior Commander Leng, if you have anything to say, shall we go in and talk?" Luo Tianxing took a step forward and said cautiously.
"Old Xie. Wei Quan, let's go in, it's disrespectful to let the elders stand here with us. Leng Feng said undoubtedly.
"Master Leng, please!" Old Patriarch Luo breathed a sigh of relief, this Leng Shi is young, and he is still a person who knows the general situation, if Leng Feng really has to pursue it, it will be troublesome, he can't hand over his own granddaughter, right?
"Master's seat. I already know who the person taking the picture is, do you want to ......," Guo Weiquan whispered as he walked.
"Don't move yet, figure out your identity, I believe it's not malicious, find someone to get the film back in a while, talk well, don't embarrass others." Leng Feng commanded in a low voice.
"I see." Guo Weiquan nodded.
The photographer is Luo Wanyu, who took a photo of the anti-Japanese hero Leng Feng, and I don't know how many peers are envious to death. Now there is not a single photo of the cold front outside.
You must know that now a photo of Leng Feng, the honorary first division, on the black market outside, has been fried to 5,000 oceans, but there is no price, because no one has taken a photo of him at all.
This is the same as this anti-Japanese hero. The young general adds an even more mystical touch.
However, she was also a little frightened, the soldiers who had just come down from the battlefield always had a fierce murderous aura on their bodies, although Guo Weiquan was Leng Feng's adjutant, there were not many opportunities to go to the battlefield. But in Pukou, he had fought face-to-face with the Japanese army and killed at least five Japanese soldiers.
Therefore, when Guo Weiquan stood up and questioned the gods, he was really scared.
"Master Leng, please take a seat!"
"No, Patriarch Luo is highly respected, you should be sitting on this throne." Leng Feng knew this rule, he knew that no one would say anything when he sat in the main seat, but it was inevitable that he would leave some small words, conceited and arrogant, and disrespected the reputation of the elder.
Fame can kill, no matter what era it is, everyone cherishes their reputation.
"Master Leng is the protagonist today, how can I, an old man, dominate the scene?"
Leng Feng insisted on not sitting, and finally had to compromise, Luo Lao Patriarch sat on the left, Leng Feng sat on the right, and the left was respected, which could be regarded as respect.
Today, the Nie family restaurant is all chartered, and there are no outsiders, except for some officers of the honorary first division, who are social elites and celebrities in Wuyi Town, and there are quite a few people, hundreds of people.
All those with heads and faces are here.
Leng Feng's table, in the largest Hundred Birds Chaofeng Hall on the second floor, in addition to the patriarchs of the four major families, there are also Xie Jiyuan plus the mayor of Wuyi Town, a total of eight people.
The mayor of Wuyi Town's surname is Xu, he is about thirty-five or sixteen years old, he has a middle seam hair, his hair is oily, and Leng Feng doesn't know him, that is, when he came in, he introduced it, nodded and said a word.
"Ladies and gentlemen, since the Japanese stationed in our Wuyi Town last year, the people of our Wuyi Town have not had a good day, now it's okay, the sky is bright in Wuyi Town, the sky is clear, we are looking forward to the respectable Master Leng, some of you may not know Master Leng, I will introduce you first!" Mayor Xu stood up and introduced loudly.
"In Xia Lengfeng, he will be appointed as the commander of the Honorary First Division of the National Revolutionary Army!" Leng Feng walked to the railing, stood upright, and gave a military salute.
Applause!
"This is my chief of staff, Major General Xie Jiyuan, his name is believed to be familiar to everyone, the eight hundred strong men who stick to the Sixing Warehouse, Commander Xie!" Leng Feng introduced Xie Jiyuandao.
"Hello to all the fathers and elders of Wuyi Town!" Xie Jiyuan took a step forward, put his legs together, stood upright, and raised his breath.
The applause was even more enthusiastic, compared to Leng Feng, the people of Wuyi Town seemed to be more familiar with Xie Jiyuan, at that time, Nanjing had not yet fallen, and the deeds of the eight hundred heroes were known to the world.
But Leng Feng is different, before this, some well-informed people have heard that Wuyi Town is occupied by the Japanese, and it is impossible for the people to know this.
If this is changed to the Guotong Region, Leng Feng's reputation will definitely be much more famous than Xie Jiyuan.
"This Master Leng is so young!"
"Yes, it's amazing to be a **** division commander at such a young age......"
"This Leng teacher looks quite young, sister, your Xiaohong has a mother-in-law's ......"
"People can take a fancy to people like us, don't look at the little lady of the Nie family who is also here today?"
……
If the Nie family recruits a **** division commander's son-in-law, it will be amazing, who would dare to provoke the Nie family in this Wuyi Town?
The Nie family may not be able to do it, doesn't this Luo family also have a daughter?
