Chapter 5: Family
After more than ten hours of rattling, the train finally arrived at Nanjing Station.
Zhang Anping accompanied his cousin and others to get out of the car.
On the platform, three cars were waiting there, and when they saw their cousin and others coming down, they immediately greeted them respectfully, and said:
"Sit."
Zhang Anping stood with the other entourage very interestingly, and did not rank with his cousin because of his nephew's identity, but he was greeted by a gang agent, and immediately noticed the unfamiliar face mixed in with the entourage.
Despite their curiosity, they didn't say anything.
Zhang Anping took the opportunity to look at the people who greeted him.
The young Xu Baichuan can see the outline of the future;
Wu Jingzhong, who trusts Yu Zecheng very much, is now also a young handsome guy;
Li Weigong, who was forced to death by his own students, did not have a big belly and poop, and he actually had a little fresh meat;
Wang Tianfeng, who is even more ruthless to himself, also appears as a handsome guy - obviously the predecessor of the military command, why are there so many handsome guys!
Zhang Anping couldn't help but slander in his heart.
The cousin deliberately did not arrange for Zhang Anping to see if Zhang Anping would ride with him, but after Zhang Anping and his cousin sat down, he decisively mixed into the car where Zheng Yaoxian was.
My cousin made arrangements at this time: "Tell Zheng Yaoxian to send Anping home first." ”
Anping?
The "King Kongs" who were familiar with the "Hero Spectrum" immediately realized who Anping was.
The son of the deputy chief of the finance section, the nephew of his own cousin.
Xu Baichuan took the first step over and sat in Zheng Yaoxian's car.
"Sixth, let you send Zhang Gongzi home first."
The first time he was called Zhang Gongzi, Zhang Anping couldn't help but laugh and said: "Sir, don't shout, if you don't dislike it, just call me Anping, don't dare to call Gongzi, I can't afford this small body!" ”
At this time, Xu Baichuan was already a captain, and Zhang Anping didn't want to pretend to be a big head - Xu Baichuan in the kite TV series was very sloppy, and he was forced to stay behind, and he also wore a grass-green hat.
In the end, he was put into the Public Security Bureau by the "sixth child".
But after all, he is one of the eight King Kongs who came from the Anti-Japanese War, and for Zhang Anping, this kind of person only has friendship, not evil.
Zhang Anping had already planned his character in the secret service: friends everywhere and a basket of dead friends.
Only in this way will he not be stabbed back in the future, and even if someone says that he is a communist, others will not believe him, right?
Zhang Anping's attitude made Xu Baichuan even comfortable.
Do you really think they are willing to hand over this son and that son? It's nothing more than the ethos!
But in their hearts, they look down on this kind of son-in-law, don't look at what they say is very sweet, if they can stab 1 at a critical time, they definitely don't mind stabbing 3 times.
"Since Brother Anping said so, then I will be disrespectful, don't call me sir, just call me Brother Baichuan." Xu Baichuan came to such a sentence in a crepe.
Zhang Anping and Xu Baichuan chatted with each other, Zheng Yaoxian occasionally interjected, and the atmosphere seemed to be very agreeable, but I am afraid that only the parties know best.
……
The military commander, who called for wind and rain and left a deep imprint on an era, is now only a special service (military police) under the Investigation and Statistics Bureau.
Although Zhang Guanfu, deputy chief of the Finance Section, is a close confidant of the director, he is now even a seedling in the secret service department, so it is naturally impossible for him to live in the most famous Yihe Road in Nanjing.
After his family moved here, he relied on the blessing of his eldest brother and found a house to rent in Huiyuan.
On this day, a car stopped in front of his house, and a young man got out of the car with a suitcase with long wheels.
After saying goodbye to several people in the car, the young man came to Zhang Guanfu's house.
The young man was naturally Zhang Anping, who had just returned from Shanghai.
He stared at the door, and after a moment of hesitation, he stepped forward and slammed on the door.
"Who!" The woman's voice came, and it didn't take long for the door to open, and a fashionable middle-aged woman wearing a cheongsam appeared in Zhang Anping's vision.
When she saw the young man standing in a tunic at the door, the woman was stunned.
Zhang Anping looked at his mother and said softly, "Mom, I'm back." ”
"Anping!"
The woman screamed, stepped forward excitedly, reached out and touched Zhang Anping's face, the temperature brought by the touch made her realize that this was not a dream, and her son, who had not seen her for four years, finally stood in front of her again.
The woman wept with joy.
In the house, Wang Chunlian took Zhang Anping's hand and spoke vigorously.
"Anping, why were you so stupid back then? If you want to study abroad, tell your mother! You'd be fine, just leave a letter and go quietly! Do you know how your mom and I spent the past four years? ”
Wang Chunlian complained about Zhang Anping, and Zhang Anping had to laugh on the side.
After his mother's mood stabilized, he took out the cosmetics he bought from the United States for a good meal, and finally made his mother smile more slowly, and finally he said all kinds of interesting things about the United States, which made Wang Chunlian laugh heartily.
Zhang Anping secretly said that he finally passed the old lady's pass.
At that time, he actually wanted to tell his parents in advance.
But after thinking about it, I didn't say anything.
Although his cousin had already made a fortune at that time, he was only in charge of the secret service at that time, and he was short of money, and his family was a small clerk, and he didn't have much savings.
In fact, after all, it was his cousin who helped, Zhang Anping saved a little money through the rest of the year, and his cousin's help was enough for the travel expenses and initial living expenses.
After talking for a while, Zhang Anping took out a deposit receipt of 5,000 US dollars: "Mom, you keep this money." ”
Wang Chunlian took it and saw the amount on it, and suddenly exclaimed: "Citibank's certificate of deposit? 5000? Or the dollar? Anping, where did you get so much money! ”
"This is what I earned in the United States - foreigners, people are stupid and have a lot of money, and they are rushing to send me money." Zhang Anping pretended to be proud, but the mother didn't think so, she was used to seeing the unscrupulousness of domestic foreigners, she instinctively thought that foreigners' money was not easy to earn, and immediately asked Zhang Anping to explain where the money came from.
Seeing his mother like this, Zhang Anping could only shake out the matter of selling patents: "Have you seen the wheels on this box?" ”
"See, this kind of box has been selling very well on the side of the road in the past two years, and it is really convenient to take this on a business trip."
"That's what I invented, and I made a lot of money selling it to the Yankees." Zhang Anping looked proud, like a child looking for his parents to show off.
Wang Chunlian said happily: "My family is smart when I am young!" ”
In the evening, Zhang Guanfu, who had been working steadily, quietly left early and returned home an hour early.
Hurriedly came to the door of the house, and heard the chatting of his wife and son in the yard, Zhang Guanfu hid the eagerness on his face, took a deep breath before returning to his former appearance, and then knocked on the door slowly.
"It's your dad back! I knew he would leave work early when he heard you were back—"
"Mom, I'll open the door."
Zhang Anping rushed to open the door first, and after opening the door, he couldn't help but reddened his eyes and said softly, "Dad." ”
Zhang Guanfu coughed dryly and said indifferently: "I'm back." ”
"I'm back."
"Well, it's good to be back."
Zhang Guanfu said casually, and then hurriedly walked into the house, he was afraid that he would be a few steps slower, so he couldn't help but want to hug his son who he hadn't seen for four years.
His father's deliberate indifference in order to maintain the majesty of the head of the family made Zhang Anping amused and sad, and he couldn't help but stride to catch up, and hugged his excited father from behind:
"Dad, I miss you."
"You ......" Zhang Guanfu was a little confused, the influence of traditional culture made him never say anything similar, but feeling his son's sincere embrace, he finally took off his disguise, patted Zhang Anping's hand around him, and repeated:
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back."
Wang Chunlian in the courtyard looked at the father and son and couldn't help but smile.
It's nice to be a family reunion.
Night.
Wang Chunlian made a sumptuous table of dishes, and kept the dishes in her son's bowl, even if she stacked a bowl high, she couldn't stop it.
Zhang Anping raised his glass: "Dad, Mom, I toast you." ”
The husband and wife raised their glasses, happily touched a glass of wine with their son, and drank it all happily.
It was the first time in four years that the family had eaten at the same table, talking one sentence at a time, until late at night.
Zhang Guanfu glanced at Wang Chunlian, but Wang Chunlian, who had been talking to her son endlessly, didn't notice her husband's eyes at all, until Zhang Guanfu kicked her under the table with his foot, she remembered her husband's quiet confession before, and asked with a smile:
"Anping, what are your plans to come back? You have also reached the age of marrying a wife, and your mother has been giving you Zhang Luo Zhang Luo in the past two days? ”
Zhang Guanfu pricked up his ears and listened.
"Plans? I told my cousin, and he said he was going to do another training class and let me teach there. ”
Wang Chunlian didn't understand much, and thought that her son was going to be a teacher, so she immediately closed her mouth happily, but Zhang Guanfu knew what the training class was about, and couldn't help frowning.
After all, the secret service has no light and a bad reputation, and he is very unhappy.
Although he himself worked in it.
"Don't worry about marrying a wife, Mom will look for you! I know you young people are shy. Wang Chunlian smiled happily.
"Mom, don't worry about marrying a wife, it's all free love now, can you let me find it myself? I will definitely find you a daughter-in-law who is 100% satisfied with you! "Zhang Anping won't be shy - how can he be an arranged marriage if he is a traveler in later generations?
"Ahem!"
After Zhang Guanfu coughed dryly, he said casually: "Anping, why did you think of going to the special training class to be a teacher?" ”
"Dad, you should also understand the current situation, the Japanese are pressing step by step, and they have to look forward to Shu, and they can't tell when a war will break out, and my son, as a Chinese, must do what he can, are you right?"
In the face of Zhang Anping's rhetorical question, Zhang Guanfu was dumbfounded, as long as he is a discerning person, he can see the situation!
But the above is like a blind man pretending to be blind and pretending to be an ostrich, always thinking that China is very big, and they can lose it here and there, and throwing it around can buy them enough time to settle down and then go outside.
"But why do you want to come to your cousin? I mean, if you want to be a teacher, you don't have to be here. ”
"That's what I've been learning for the last few years."
"What?" Zhang Guanfu was shocked.
Wang Chunlian was taken aback by her husband's reaction and complained: "What are you fussing about!" ”
"It's okay, it's okay." Zhang Guanfu didn't want his wife to know about the secret service's activities, so he forcibly endured the agitation to cover up, but his heart was churning.
In the Secret Service, he was in charge of finances and nothing else.
But this does not mean that he is unaware of the work of the Secret Service - the Secret Service does not see the light, not only because of the nature of the work, but also because of the means!
He had seen the secret service torture people inappropriately, where did he want his son to be contaminated with this.
Holding back his anxiety, after chatting for a while, he asked Wang Chunlian to clean up and motioned for Zhang Anping to come to the study with him.
When he entered the study, Zhang Guanfu's face darkened, and he wanted to be harsh, but after all, he saw his son for the first time in four years, held back his anger, and said, "Anping, why do you want to learn this?" Is this something that good people can touch? Do you know how muddy the water is inside? Do you know what the Secret Service does? ”
"Dad, don't forget what I learned."
Zhang Guanfu was even more angry at the mention of this: "How can you learn this?" What is not good about learning, you prefer to learn this? I'm not so angry even if you're a soldier! ”
"Dad, the Japanese will not die in my heart, the war between China and Japan is imminent, the big war together, son, as a Chinese, can I stand by and watch? You may think that the spy industry is too shady, but on the battlefield, intelligence is extremely important! ”
Zhang Anping said softly: "There are no eggs under the nest, no matter what this line of work is, as long as it is beneficial to the war that breaks out in the future, someone has to do it!" As a Chinese, how can I not do it? ”
Zhang Guanfu listened to his sonorous answer, wanted to refute but didn't know how to refute, and said after a few sighs:
"It's normal for you to grow up and have your own ideas, but you have to promise me that you won't be a miserable executioner, okay?"
Zhang Anping nodded seriously: "I promise!" ”
