Chapter 348 The loyal servant of Zhang's mansion
This air battle not far from the mountain city naturally could not escape the eyes of the soldiers. But when they saw that the Japanese fighters were falling one after another, many Japanese soldiers sighed why their air force could not beat the Japanese air force like this.
As for Chairman Jiang who received the news, he seemed to know that the Japanese army could not easily put Young Marshal Zhang back to the Northeast. Now he thought that his guess was still correct, but he didn't expect the Japanese to encounter the militia corps, but the army and the air force seemed to be weak.
This made him somewhat envious of the militia corps that had such a strong air force after receiving the safe arrival of Young Marshal Zhang in Peking. Unfortunately, this was owned by a warlord who was dissatisfied with his dispatch. That's right, among this chairman, except for the National Party, all other warlords were warlords, and even the People's Party might be the same in his heart.
In order to welcome Mr. Zhang to return to Peking, Deng Chenggong, the commander-in-chief of the militia, also personally picked up the plane at the airport. Hu Guangzong, the former commander of the Northeast Army, was also accompanied by Mr. Hu. Of course, some military and political officials in Peking were indispensable, and they acted as accompanying guests to welcome Mr. Zhang’s return to the airport.
Facing Zhang Shaoshang, who was older than him but had no impression of Hu Guangzong, he also lamented that his Northeast Army was not without capable people, but that there was one missing person who could dig out these capable people's abilities! Compared to the militia commander-in-chief who was younger than him, he suddenly felt like he was old all of a sudden. In fact, he was just middle-aged!
Looking at the scenery outside the car, Young Marshal Zhang also lamented that this fare has been almost ten years. Thinking of his father who led the Northeast Army here to order the whole country. But now, he seems to have nothing except his wife and children around him. This is really thirty years from Hedong and three years from Hexi!
Because Deng successfully considered taking this place as the capital of New China, the governance here was undoubtedly stricter than other places, and of course the reconstruction speed was much faster. Many engineering teams transferred from the infrastructure troops of the militia were being constructed on the road from the airport to Beiping City. This busy and lively scene made Zhang Shaoshuai seem to see a kind of hope, a kind of hope for the rise of China.
Considering that Zhang Shaoshuai has been under house arrest for so many years and is not used to being suddenly transferred here, Deng Chenggong specially cleaned up the Zhang Mansion where the Zhang family lived. After returning from the airport, he directly sent Zhang Shaoshuai and his wife here.
When Zhang Shaoshuai got out of the car with his wife and children, he looked at the familiar courtyard in front of him and three familiar fonts on the courtyard, he was moved and said, "Commander Deng, I'm interested!"
Deng Chenggong smiled and said, "It should be that this place was lived in by senior Japanese generals, and we didn't touch the things inside after we recovered it. But it should be somewhat different from when the young marshal lived. If the young marshal had any needs at that time, you can find me at any time."
But Zhang Shaoshuai smiled and said, "Commander Deng has thought about Han Qing well enough. I can't even thank you. I'm so embarrassed to bother you again? In fact, for me, as long as I can come back here and take a look at him, I will be very satisfied."
Deng Chenggong also said politely: "No matter what others say, I believe that the six words "Young Marshal" come from sincerity. You just came today, and we won't go in and disturb you. If it's convenient tonight, I will hold a banquet for you at the headquarters. I hope that the young marshal's family will come by. Although they are all coarse food in the army, I think the young marshal should still be used to it.
In addition, what I want to tell the Young Marshal is that considering that the Japanese may cause harm to you, I arranged a team of flying eagles to protect you near the house. These four flying eagles are for your personal companion when you need to go out. Of course, the Young Marshal can be completely relieved. They are just protecting the safety of you and your family. All other activities in Peking are free. I just hope that the Young Marshal will not misunderstand that success is the kindness of this!”
When Mr. Zhang heard that he had arranged for a Flying Eagle Squad to protect him, he had experienced the experience on the plane before and said calmly: "I thank you for being too late. I will bother you all in the future. If Commander Deng sends someone to communicate, Han Qing will definitely attend the banquet."
After both sides were polite at the door, the Feiying Officer, who was responsible for protecting Mr. Zhang, quickly helped him luggage in advance and said, "Mr. Young Master, please!"
Looking at the closed door in front of him, Young Shuai Zhang took a long breath and pushed it open. But when he pushed open the door and saw a row of people standing inside, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
When the young and old saw Zhang Shaoshuai, they also said excitedly: "Welcome to the young master's wife home!"
go home!
What kind of friendly words! What makes Zhang Shaoshuai feel even more friendly is that these servants who took care of their Zhang family for the rest of their lives were found by Deng Chenggong for some reason. This kind of intention alone is worth remembering Deng Chenggong's goodness.
Looking at the two white-haired old men in the lead, Young Sir Zhang didn't care about holding the child's hand and quickly stepped forward and said, "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, why are you here too?"
This elderly couple was the butler and cook of Zhangjiaguan back then, and even the surname was the same as the Zhang family. They were considered the most caring couple in the Zhang family, which made Zhang Shaoshuai feel even more intimate. When he was a child, the cook was similar to his nanny in a sense. Moreover, this couple also saw him growing up since childhood, so it would be strange if he didn't feel friendly!
Butler Zhang also sighed at this time: "Young Master, it's good to come back! God can let me look at you again, and I am really satisfied. Originally, Xiu and I wanted to go to the south to find you and serve you and your wife. But we can't walk when we are old, and we don't know where you are locked up, so we can only guard this Beiping City.
Until the militia liberated Peiping some time ago, they sealed up Zhang Gongguan. I didn’t know where to learn that Xiu and I were the butlers of the Zhang family. So, we invited our old couple to take care of the Zhang family’s objects. A few days ago, an officer suddenly came and told us that the young master and his wife were going to come back.
I thought to myself that Mr. Shi would definitely need someone to serve him. I found the little dog, his wife, and the servants who had done things in the Zhang family before. Except for Mr. Liu in the flower room, I found most of the others. In this way, Mr. Shi would feel more friendly when he returned home. The young master would not blame me for taking his own actions, right?"
Zhang Shaoshuai also has the mentality of blaming this kind of affectionate and righteous housekeeper. He didn't know what tears felt for many years. He couldn't help but cry and said, "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, thank you! Thank you for everything you did for Hanqing, thank you!"
Butler Zhang, who is used to the current people, seemed a little unbearable to thank the young master of the Zhang family who had grown up, and said, "Young Master is so serious, this is what we should do. As long as the young master doesn't dislike us clumsy, we will stay here with you for the rest of our lives.
When we see the master that day in the future, we will also tell him that we have not broken our trust. We will see that you are safe and safe, and the Zhang family will become more and more prosperous. I think the master will be very happy!"
I’m afraid anyone will be grateful for having such a pair of loyal servants in life!
Besides, Mr. Zhang knew very well that although Mr. Zhang did not say how he lived in Peking after being detained. Mr. Zhang could also think that as a servant of the Zhang family, he was afraid that living in Peking during the Japanese rule would be extremely fortunate. Otherwise, the second wife, who was less than 60 years old, would look just like an old man in his seventies. I am afraid that it is really unknown how much hardship he suffered in this!
Moreover, Young Marshal Zhang knew very well that if there was no militia corps to liberate Peiping, I was afraid that the old man would stay here and guard the Zhang Mansion occupied by the Japanese. Even if Peking was liberated, if he had not been lifted out of house arrest, I was afraid that he would not know this life. Here, there were still such a group of people waiting for the return of their family.
Compared to the fact that Zhang Shaoshuai pulled the housekeeper and told the story after the parting, Aunt Zhang accompanied Miss Zhao Si to prepare food for several children. Although Aunt Zhang already had grandchildren, the old man knew very well. If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Dashuai saved the couple and invited them to work in the Zhang Mansion, I'm afraid that in those years of war, they would have long known that they would have died in that corner. Will there be such a family of children and grandchildren there now?
Although it is a bit embarrassing for people today, they who have left the best years of their lives in the Zhang family have regarded Zhang Shaoshuai as their family members and juniors. Although they are conserving their duties as servants, they all know that this young master and the young lady have not regarded them as current people. With this idea, returning to the Zhang family hall is undoubtedly the best comfort and destination for them.
Looking at the servants standing in the yard of the tenth-year-old Zhang family, most of them just felt familiar, but they could call out their names and know what the other party did before. After Mr. Zhang introduced him this time, he knew that in his lifetime, these loyal servants would give them a safe old age. For their sincere sincerity to the Zhang family, he felt that no matter how much they paid, it was worth it.
What made him feel most at ease was that the four flying eagles who were protecting him seemed to know that it was not good to disturb them in this situation. Therefore, after handing over the luggage to the servants of the Zhang family, they stood in the corner next to the yard with great responsibility. They did not disturb or listen to Zhang Shaoshuo Shuai's every move, so as to show that their mission here was to protect him, not to monitor him.
This complete trust made Zhang Shaoshuai feel that perhaps he would join such a team. No matter how big the official position is, as long as he can do something practical for the people of the Northeast, he will have no regrets in this life.
Compared to the years when he was monitored by the National Party, he seemed to be free in the yard, but even eating and sleeping were inevitably monitored. With this comparison, he suddenly felt that he had made up his mind to come back this time and was really right.
Even if he can't be an official of the military government, he feels comfortable and happy than being under house arrest. Besides, with these loyal servants accompanying him, what else can he not be satisfied with? (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
