Chapter 230: It's too late to repent

In the main hall of Tingtao Farewell Garden, the old lady of the Zhang family is sitting on the main seat at the moment. He is not low in the clan, even Zhang Yu has to call an uncle when he sees it, plus he has held the power of the Zhang family over the years, and his family has countless assets, and even many local officials have to raise his nose, and over time, he has naturally developed an aura that no one should enter.

Today, the Japanese invaded Tingtao Villa, and everyone in the Zhang family except for Mrs. Zhang's kung fu was not bad, and the rest of the people were like ants on a hot pot.

The older people are, the more afraid they are of death, especially those who have enjoyed a high-quality life, Mrs. Zhang is naturally not exempt from vulgarity, he is actually afraid of death in his heart, but he understands that he can't mess up at this time, he must remain calm, otherwise the Japanese have not yet come in, and the family will be chaotic first.

He raised his eyes to look at the people of the Zhang family who were sitting or standing in the hall, and finally knocked on the cane in his hand impatiently, and said, "Furrizzy, what has become of?

Hearing this, the Zhang family, who was not low in seniority, stepped forward and said, "Patriarch, we don't feed these widows on weekdays, but why are they white-eyed wolves who can't be fed?

Now that those Japanese are attacking us, I don't know if we can hold it." On the other side, there were also people from the Zhang clan who said, "Patriarch, we sent a letter to Zhang Yu's kid at the beginning, and now he is also an official, as long as he brings troops here, won't he kill these Japanese robbers outside?

I just don't know if Zhang Yu has a reply?" As a general, it is a big crime to transfer troops privately, and the Zhang family is not unaware, they are just greedy for life and afraid of death and want to get through the difficulties in front of them first.

Old Lady Zhang shook her head, "I haven't received Zhang Yu's reply, even if he brings troops here, I'm afraid he won't be able to catch up.

Speaking of this, someone in the hall immediately cursed angrily: "Zhang Yu is a villain who forgets his ancestors!

Now that his family is in great trouble, he doesn't know where to live happily!" When a person expressed his dissatisfaction with Zhang Yu, everyone in the hall began to accuse one after another, as if they wanted to vent all their unhappiness on Zhang Yu.

But they themselves don't want to think about it, the reason why the Zhang family can have today's wealth is not that Zhang Yu helped the family a lot when he was the governor of the Privy Council in Dayuan.

At that time, even if the Zhang family was asked to use Zhang Yu as a stool, I am afraid that the Zhang family would rush to go. But later, Zhang Yu resigned and returned to his hometown, how did these Zhang family members treat Zhang Yu's family?

It is rare to be able to say two sentences well, like Zhang Fu and Zhang Lu are even more pitiful, in addition to facing abuse and accusations all day long, there are also fists and feet of peers.

Seeing a pot of porridge in the hall, Mrs. Zhang knocked on the cane in her hand again, not to mention, this time it really quieted the hall.

Old lady Zhang raised her eyelids and said, "Zhang Yu can't come, it's useless for us to talk more, it's better to think of other ways."

As soon as Mrs. Zhang's words fell, someone spoke, "Zhenhailou has been fighting against the Japanese invaders all these years, so you want to come to help us this time, right?"

Some people in the hall had different opinions: "The family had some unpleasantness two days ago because of the seizure of the fishing port and Zhenhai Tower, and now they can ignore the past suspicions?

At this point, all the Zhang family members in the hall fell silent, and in their minds, it was impossible for them to repay their grievances with virtue.

But at this moment, the captain of the guard at home ran in in a hurry. When the people saw him, they immediately surrounded him, asking questions from east to west and from the west.

The captain of the guard didn't pay attention to it, but pulled everyone away and came directly to Mrs. Zhang.

The Zhang family, who was pulled away, was dissatisfied, and you, the captain of the guard, dared to push us, the masters?

Then they began to speak out one by one. The captain of the guard didn't hear it at all, and only said to the old lady Zhang: "The head of the family, his subordinates are incompetent, and there are many masters hidden among the widows, and now they have attacked the city wall, and today they listen to the Tao Garden, and they can't keep it...... Hearing this, the crusade against the captain of the guard in the hall became even louder.

"Rubbish! What is the use of the Zhang family?" "That's it, in order to support you nurses, the expenses are all real money.

"You nurses can't even stop the widows, it's better to die." The captain of the guard has no sorrow or joy, he was a down-and-out guest, and he was forced to make a living to be such a captain of the guard in Tingtao Villa, he has done a lot of things for the Zhang family over the years, in his eyes, it is as simple as taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people.

Seeing this in the hall, Mrs. Zhang suddenly got up and slapped the nearest Zhang family disciple.

The crisp sound also made the chaotic lobby quiet again. Old Lady Zhang looked left and right with an unkind face, and said, "Without these guards, you!

Including me! He has long since died under the sword of the Japanese Invaders! You have the strength to make a big deal here, so you might as well go to the city and fight to the death against the Japanese invaders!

Although Mrs. Zhang has a lot of problems, I have to say that among the people of the Zhang family, he is the best brain, and now their Zhang family can only rely on these guards.

Everyone in the Zhang family was afraid of Mrs. Zhang, and they lowered their heads one by one and were silent. Seeing that no one spoke in the hall, the old lady patted the captain of the guard on the shoulder and said, "If you can resist the Japanese today, my Zhang family will never fail you, if you violate this oath, you should fight like this!"

As she spoke, Mrs. Zhang put her crutches against her knees, only to hear a "pop", and the crutches broke in two.

In the end, he is old, and his legs and feet don't need to be young, just this one action made Mrs. Zhang feel that his knee was broken, his steps were unsteady, and he fell back to the seat.

In the end, the captain of the guard is a native of the rivers and lakes, and he has always taken the word righteousness first, he arched his hand towards Old Lady Zhang, and said loudly: "If the Japanese invade and kill me, it can only be my death, and today, there is only death!"

After the captain of the guard finished speaking, he walked out of the lobby tragically, but in the eyes of many Zhang family members, they only thought that this person was just pretentious.

When the captain of the guard came out of the lobby, Mrs. Zhang's grandson asked again, "Grandpa, why don't we escape?"

Old lady Zhang sighed and shook his head silently, why didn't he want to live? If you get out of this Tingtao Garden, there are shallows for dozens of miles around, and there is nowhere to hide, and the Zhang family has developed a large population so far, and escaping from Tingtao Garden can only become a live target for the Japanese Kou.

The old lady's grandson didn't care about the elders and youngsters at the moment, and he asked as if questioning, "What else can I do if I don't escape?"

Are you just waiting here to die?" Mrs. Zhang was stunned, obviously he didn't expect that his usually well-behaved and obedient grandson would talk to him like this, he really felt tired at this moment.

His back rested on the back of the chair, and he exhaled, and then said, "If you want to escape, run away, but if you die under the sword of the Japanese Kou, don't complain about the heavens, I am old, and my legs and feet are not good, and today I will sit here, whether you live or die, let him go."

Saying this, Mrs. Zhang only felt that the burden of her whole body had been removed, and her whole spirit felt extremely relaxed, and it seemed that life and death were not so terrible.

The people around you, you look at me, I look at you, all silently exited the lobby, in the face of life and death, everyone has their own considerations, as for how they choose, it is unknown.

Looking at the empty lobby, Mrs. Zhang just smiled self-deprecatingly, he regretted it, it is also a rich family, isn't Zhao Dashan in Muping County widely praised?

If he had known that there was today, he would have done more good deeds, so that it would be beneficial to the people of Muping, and he would have made friends with the government and Zhenhailou, but now, it is too late.

A high-walled fortress was built on the periphery of Tingtao Villa, and he thought that there would be a day when he would encounter danger, so at the beginning of the design of Tingtao Villa, he designed a secret passage, but the matter about the secret passage was extremely secret, and only three or five people knew about it, including Mrs. Zhang.

Originally, the exit of this secret passage was on the shallows next to the fishing port, and if you escaped, you could escape by boat. But a few days ago, in order to compete with Zhenhailou for the fishing port, the Zhang family occupied all their boats elsewhere, and now there is no boat outside the secret passage.

At this moment, Zhang Erye was carrying a lot of large bags of belongings, holding a fire candle in his hand, and was walking slowly in the secret passage with his son Zhang Lun and daughter Zhang Ruansoft.

Second Master Zhang is the old lady's son-in-law and the successor to the future head of the family, but now he only thinks about his life, and all the families and families are left behind.

Moreover, Zhang Erye has always been the mediator between the family and the Japanese Invaders, and he is the main advocate of befriending the Japanese Invaders, so in his own opinion, if he goes out to take refuge now, the Widows will still give him some face.

"Dad, where are you taking us?" I grew up in Tingtao Bessen, why have I never been here?

Zhang Lun couldn't help but ask Second Master Zhang. Zhang Ruansoft also fanned the dust in front of him with his sleeve, and said, "That's it, Dad, it's so dirty here, you still let us bring all the things from before, where are we going?"

Zhang Ruansoft has been a fine food since she was a child, and bringing so much possessions made her feel sore shoulders, and now she has to go to this dirty place, so she naturally shows her resentment.

Second Master Zhang looked back at a pair of children and said, "This is the secret passage of our Zhang family, and we are here to take refuge in the outside widows.

These words startled both Zhang Lun and Zhang Ruansoft, and Zhang Lun couldn't help but say, "We are Han Chinese, wouldn't it be self-surrendering to surrender our identity if we voted for the Japanese Invaders?

Isn't that okay?" Zhang Erye slapped Zhang Lun angrily: "What do you know about this kid?

If you stick to Tingtao Garden, we will all die, and I took you out to win a chance to survive." "、、This is the Liaoning ship, the deck has been emptied, the airspace has been emptied, and it can land, please return immediately...... Today is April Fool's Day, but the heroes of the country should not be forgotten; 22 years ago, Wang Wei, a pilot of the Naval Air Corps, flew a fighter plane to intercept a US reconnaissance plane that violated China's territorial airspace in the South China Sea, and never returned...... If he was piloting the J-20 at that time, if we could have had our own aircraft carrier at that time...... The martyrs have not gone far and should not be forgotten, and today the 1.3 billion people of the country and our great and powerful motherland are waiting for your heroic soul to return!

!! May our great motherland always prosper and prosper!! (After reading it, remember to bookmark it for next time!)
