Lu Zhaohai and Bai Ling were walking in the streets and alleys chewing buns, and the cart with the corpses wiped their feet, spilling pus, blood and flesh juice all over the road.

They couldn't smell the fishy smell anymore, and they munched on the sweet buns. Lu Zhaohai said: "Bai Ling, Uncle Jiaxuan seems to hate me?"

"That's normal." Bai Ling said,

"He hates me more now, can't you see it?" Lu Zhaohai said: "As soon as I saw Jia Xuanbo, I was afraid. Ever since I was a child, I seemed to be afraid of my uncle. I suddenly saw my uncle today, and I seemed to be more timid than when I was a child. Bai Ling said: "There are ghosts in the cowardly place. You must have a bad idea. Lu Zhaohai said: "Bai Ling, listen, if I have the courage to kneel at the feet of the uncle and shout 'father-in-law', what do you say will happen to the uncle?" Bai Ling pursed his lips and said, "He doesn't treat you well." But he's going to break my neck!" Lu Zhaohai said: "Then I will shout again: 'Father-in-law, let go of Bai Ling and twist my neck off!' Do you believe it or not? I would definitely say so. Bai Ling pretended to sigh: "Okay, let's all wait to break our necks!" Now, revolutionary comrades, go and carry the corpse. When they came to the pile of corpses at the base of the city wall, they had just finished eating two steamed buns, and they clapped their hands and went to move the corpses.

Soon after the siege, the church school was closed. Bai Ling met Lu Zhaohai on the street, and the two looked at each other for a long time and finally recognized the township party in the same village.

Lu Zhaohai said that his middle school had also been suspended, and that a national revolution training class had been temporarily set up in the school to train soldiers, citizens, students, and all those who were interested in revolution.

Bai Ling and Zhaohai visited their school, and only then did they feel that the girls' church school they were in was a little pitiful.

Lu Zhaohai encouraged her to go to the training class to listen to the excitement, and she went. Lu Zhaohai whispered to her: "The teacher who gave the lecture was our former Chinese language teacher and a member of the Kuomintang. In the same tone, he told her, "This teacher was our English teacher, and he was a **." Bai Ling asked: "Which ...... do you say the Kuomintang or **" Lu Zhaohai said: "It's all the same." The two parties worked together to advance the national revolution. Bai Ling came to the training class every day to listen to the lectures, and one day said to Zhaohai: "I have decided to transfer to your school. Lu Zhaohai said: "I have achieved my goal. That night, Zhaohai sent Bai Ling home, and suddenly asked, "Bai Ling, do you want to join a party?" Bai Ling said, "Yes." Do you want to? Or...... You've already participated?" Lu Zhaohai said: "I don't have either. Let's discuss, which one should we attend?" Bai Ling said, "No. Let's take one of them. Lu Zhaohai said: "That's good! The Kuomintang and the Communist Party are united and cooperative, and the two of us are also ......," Bai Ling said: "What if the 'country' and the 'communist' do not unite and cooperate one day? The two of us also ......" Lu Zhaohai said: "We will continue to unite and cooperate against treacherous behavior!" Bai Ling said: "Okay, you choose one first, and the rest is mine." ”

"That's it—" Lu Zhaohai took out a copper dollar and said,

"The side with the dragon is 'country', and the side with words is 'total', guess which side counts which." Bai Ling thought it was very interesting, took the copper yuan from Lu Zhaohai's hand, looked at it and said, "I'll throw it, you guess first!" Lu Zhaohai nodded in agreement.

Bai Ling discovered the loophole in this tacit game again: "What if we both guess one side correctly?" Lu Zhaohai said: "That...... As fate would have it, we would join the same party. Bai Ling solemnly stroked the copper yuan in the palm of his hand and then threw it on the ground with bright light, letting Lu Zhaohai guess.

Lu Zhaohai said: "It's a word." Bai Ling said, "I guess it's a dragon." The two of them squatted down at the same time, and observed through the light pouring out of the door of the store, the copper yuan just showed a dragon pattern, and the two of them laughed and jumped up.

Lu Zhaohai said: "I am the 'Gong', you are the 'country'. Whoever enters it first will keep the copper dollar. Bai Ling smiled and said, "Now let me keep it first, the fun copper dollar." They threw themselves into the struggle to defend the city, and collected stones with the citizens they did not know, and even the bluestone strips that were paved on the ground, the stone slabs at the entrance of the houses, and the sand and gravel at the roadside were dug up and pried up and carried to the city wall, so as to fill the gaps in the wall that had been blown down by the besieging army with guns and cannons.

Lu Zhaohai once carried a stone up the city wall, and the soldiers besieging the city fired their guns, and the bullet hit his right arm, and he almost died.

Bai Ling went to the temporary emergency hospital to visit him almost every day. Bai Ling asked, "Are you afraid?" Lu Zhaohai said: "Don't be afraid. Really!" Bai Ling said: "You blow the atmosphere in front of me, be a good man!" Lu Zhaohai stroked his bandaged arm and said, "This shot made me anxious, I tell you now, I decided to join the army." Of course, I still want to finish middle school. If I was afraid, how could I make this decision?" Bai Ling smiled apologetically and said, "I said I was playing, why did I take it seriously?" When Lu Zhaohai was about to be discharged from the hospital, the English teacher at the school officially informed him when he came to visit: "You have been accepted as a ** party member." Bai Ling took out the copper dollar and handed it to Lu Zhaohai.

Lu Zhaohai stroked it in his hand for a while, then handed it to Bai Ling and said, "You keep it well." When the two of them gave in, Mr. English rolled his curious eyes: "Dating object?" Lu Zhaohai and Bai Ling both blushed, but they tried their best to deny it: "No." It's more meaningful. In the end, the copper yuan remained in Bai Ling's palm.

After Lu Zhaohai recovered, he was incorporated into a paramilitary combat team composed of students, citizens and handicraft workers, received military training, and was ready to replenish the barracks of the National Revolutionary Army defending the city.

Bai Ling was later recruited to participate in the theatrical performance team, went to the barracks defending the city and among the citizens to propagandize and agitate, climbed the city wall several times, and sang for the soldiers lying under the bunker.

There was a performance that left her with the deepest memory, she saw Lu Zhaohai among the condolences of the militia.

The copper dollar was in her small pocket, and no matter where she went, when she jumped up and danced, the little copper dollar gently hit her little chest that had just bulged...... The game of throwing copper dollars between her and Lu Zhaohai that night was forged into the moment when she and he walked towards the most glorious moment of their respective lives.

The office building of Bailucang was completed on schedule, and the supervision of such a large and urgent project shows Lu Zilin's outstanding organizational skills.

Tian Fuxian and his officers couldn't wait to move into the damp new house. Bailucang held a grand celebration ceremony for the re-listing of the office.

Officials from more than 100 villages under the jurisdiction of Bailu Cang, respected gentlemen and virtuous people, private school teachers from more than a dozen large villages and several teachers from the only new school, Ding Shopkeeper of Jishi Grain Store and Mr. Leng of Bailu Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall and other leading figures were invited.

Liang County, the newly appointed magistrate of Zishui County, and Yue Weishan, secretary of the newly formed Kuomintang Zishui County Party Department, visited Bencang in person.

Mr. Zhu, a famous Confucian in Guanzhong, is a special guest invited by Mr. Tian's township, and the grand event of rebuilding Bailucang will be recorded by Mr. Zhu in the new county chronicle that is being compiled.

County Magistrate Liang first spoke: "The grand ceremony of Bailucang marks the complete establishment of a new order of the national revolution. Yue Weishan, secretary of the county party department, continued: "The victory in smashing the siege of the revolution by Liu bandits and crow soldiers will open a new page in the national revolution in Bailuyuan and Zishui County." He then solemnly announced: "The first branch of our party in this county, the Bailu District Branch, was born. Tian Fuxian served as the secretary of the Bailu District Branch. The participants expressed warm congratulations and showed surprise, and the surprise was that among the four committee members, the Lu family father and son actually accounted for two.

Yue Weishan lost no time in introducing Lu Zhaopeng: "Comrade Lu Zhaopeng is not only a member of the Bailu District Branch, but also a member of the county party department, responsible for the work of the peasant movement. Comrade Lu Zhaopeng is a member of the Communist Party, industry, and party-" The buzzing discussion suddenly rose, and more than 100 pairs of eyes shot at Lu Zhaopeng.

Lu Zhaopeng tried his best to make a calm expression, but he always seemed unnatural. Lu Zilin glanced at his son quickly and tilted his head slightly, his face was even more nervous and embarrassed than his son, because everyone's eyes moved to his face.

Recently, there have been whispers in the countryside that ** is a red-haired and red-eyed demon bandit, a communist house, a common field, a common mule, a horse and livestock, especially the communist mother-in-law and a woman, the villagers feel much more terrible than the white wolf, but no one has ever seen one**.

Yue Weishan politely asked Lu Zhaopeng to speak, and the venue suddenly fell silent. Lu Zhaopeng smiled innocently and said: "All the township parties, everyone take a look at me more, and see that I am the same as you and your children, I am black hair, black eyes and yellow skin." Okay, Secretary Yue, go on, I'll make this joke. The venue suddenly became relaxed and lively, mixed with laughter of relief and doubt.

Yue Weishan smiled gracefully and said: "Comrade Lu Zhaopeng is also a member of the Kuomintang. ** Comrades and brothers with the Kuomintang jointly promote the national revolution. As he spoke, he grabbed Lu Zhaopeng's hand and stood up, and his two hands formed a fist raised high above his head and stayed in the air, showing the sincerity of unity and symbolizing the strength of the heavens and the earth.

This vivid image was captured in the eyes of each of the attendees, stored in their minds, and made a historic exclamation for the complete opposite outcome that followed.

After the meeting, Mr. Zhu naturally followed Bai Jiaxuan to visit his old mother-in-law. He greeted his mother-in-law, Bai Zhao, and said urgently: "Ah, mom, I'm hungry, hurry up and boil me a bowl of grain grits!" I've never drunk your sticky, fragrant grits again. Bai Zhao personally went down to the kitchen, stopped his daughter-in-law Xiancao and blocked his granddaughter-in-law, personally added water to the fire, brushed down the grits and put them into the alkaline noodles, and boiled them for a while.

At the sumptuous banquet after the ceremony, Mr. Zhu just lit his chopsticks a few times ceremoniously and left.

He is not out of purity, but his stomach and intestines can only accept light grains and vegetables, but he can't bear the meat and seafood.

Bai Jiaxuan's mind was full of questions, and he couldn't wait to ask his brother-in-law: "The father and son of the Lu family are all committee members?" Lujia Zhaopeng entered the 'country' and 'co-ordinary' to ride a two-headed horse? It is Bailucang and the district department, and Tian Fuxian is the secretary of the general township and the district department. It's the Kuomintang again, it's the **. Ahhh I've made a pot of pulp in my brain!" Mr. Zhu laughed when he heard it: "You plant your crops, you take care of your calves, mules and foals, just right." What's the use of you erasing those names and relationships? I can't even erase the code, what are you doing with that brain? Both the Kuomintang and the Kuomintang made it clear from the beginning that they wanted to do good things for the people and 'help the workers and peasants'. You just have to live your life in peace. Bai Jiaxuan nodded convincingly, but he still couldn't stop asking: "Brother, my heart is always messy." As the saying goes, a trough can't tie two donkeys, and a swarm of bees can't accommodate two queens. Yue Lu and the others separated from each other with the fists raised above their heads?" Mr. Zhu laughed even more inadvertently when he heard this: "Ha yes brother! Our mother brought me the grits. I'm not idle. No matter who it is, as long as he doesn't take me a bowl of grits, I don't care what he does. ”
