War of Resistance

Chapter 508 Meeting
At this time, the Nanluo Lane was still as quiet as a picture, but Zheng Boqu slowly approached No. 66 Nanluo Lane with the support of Zheng Gaoyang.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk."

Zheng Boqu gently knocked on the door of the Zhang family.

At this moment, an old man who looked about 50 years old opened the door and said, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

At this moment, Zheng Boqu spoke, and he said in his slightly hoarse voice, "I'll find Mr. Zhang Fuhan, Mr. Zhang. Is Mr. Zhang at home?"

The person who opened the door was tall and tall, with neat short hair, and the short hair was already covered with silver hairs, and the tall figure seemed a little stooped because of the thinness.It's just that the gentle temperament in him can't be changed no matter what.

"I'm Zhang Fuhan. May I ask your Excellency to come to my humble house, what's the matter?" The man who opened the door said directly. He is over 50 years old this year, and he is no longer the same as when he was young.

"You must be Zhang Tianhai's father, right?" Zheng Boqu asked directly, his face still full of calmness and stability.

Unexpectedly, when Zhang Fuhan heard the news, his hands trembled immediately: his eldest son had never written a letter to his family since the July [-]th Incident. It had been seven months, and Zheng Boqu It also looks like the kind of official, who naturally carries an official authority.

There are various indications that he may have come to condolences to the families of the heroes on behalf of the national government.

"Yes... I am Zhang Tianhai's father, Zhang Fuhan... You are here to tell me that my Yulin family has died on the front line?" Zhang Fuhan's voice trembled a little.

Upon hearing this sentence, Zheng Boqu smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Zhang, don't think too much about it. To be honest, I came here to visit this time because I want to see my in-laws."

"In-laws?" Speaking of this, Zhang Fuhan was really a little confused, why did he have another in-law come out for no reason?Could it be that kid Yulin has already married a wife at the front line?
Thinking of this level, Zhang Fuhan suddenly became enlightened.

"Please come inside quickly!" Zhang Fuhan said, his attitude was not so enthusiastic, after all, it was the family of his son and daughter, and besides, he didn't come to report a funeral, so it would be more perfect.

"Hurry up, Xiaocui, serve a pot of tea to my in-laws!" Zhang Fuhan shouted inside, as if he wanted to warmly greet Zheng Boqu.

Zheng Boqu was not polite about the warm greeting from his in-laws, and walked in directly.

After Zheng Boqu entered the door, he began to observe the surroundings. The courtyard was not very big, it belonged to the small courtyard of ordinary people, and upon closer inspection, it looked a bit like a quadrangle courtyard.

Zheng Boqu also knew that Zhang Tianhai's family was not considered rich, and could barely be considered a middle-class family, but the courtyard was quaint, with the charm of a scholarly family in it.

"In-laws, come in and sit down!" Zhang Fuhan called Zheng Boqu into the hall and sat down.

Zheng Boqu glanced around, the environment here is naturally not as luxurious as his Zheng mansion, but it is worse than the surroundings are clean and tidy, with a scholarly and family atmosphere.

Xiaocui is the distant cousin of the Zhang family in the countryside, and she came to join Zhang Fuhan's family. Since she came here, she didn't come here specifically to be the eldest lady, but naturally she wanted to help with some work.

Xiaocui came up with a pot of tea, and also poured a cup of hot tea for Zhang Fuhan and Zheng Boqu with a very respectful attitude.

"Let's drink tea! In-laws. What, I don't know what you call it?" Zhang Fuhan asked generously.

"My name is Zheng Boqu, and I'm from Wuhan just like you. I used to live in Nanjing. Later, the Japanese army was about to hit Nanjing, so we moved back to Wuhan." Zheng Boqu put down his usual airs and said.

"Oh, so, it seems that we are all from the same place. By the way, do you have any news about our family Yulin?" Zhang Fuhan couldn't hold back his excitement, saying that his mother was worried when he traveled thousands of miles, and his father was also the same. ?It's just that the way they love each other is different.

"My in-laws, I just wanted to tell you about this. This Zhang Yulin of your family is promising! In just half a year, he has been promoted from a deputy company commander to a regiment commander, and he is also the ace of the direct line. He also made a lot of military exploits on the front line, so he was also appreciated by Minister He Yingqin and Chief Li Zongren Li." Zheng Boqu laughed and said that he had to talk slowly, and he couldn't talk about it all at once. Said everything he knew.

Upon hearing the news, Zhang Fuhan immediately became excited: Minister He Yingqin, these are all names that can only be seen in newspapers, like Li Zongren, Chief Li, who just commanded a great victory in Taierzhuang not long ago.

It was this Taierzhuang victory in Wuhan, but 3 people held torches and took to the streets to celebrate.

And among the more than 3 people who took to the streets to celebrate, many of them were his students, so for Zhang Fuhan, these names were just legendary figures.

"That's good, that's good!" Zhang Fuhan rubbed his hands excitedly. What parent doesn't want their child to become a talent?Hope your son will become a dragon, hope your daughter will become a phoenix, these words are not just words.

When he heard that his child was so promising, Zhang Fuhan was naturally as excited as a normal parent.

"Let me tell you this! LY's victory, you know, right? If Zhang Tianhai hadn't led the troops and cut off the Japanese army's retreat, otherwise the frontline battle results would not have been so great." Zheng Boqu stroked his long gray beard lightly. , looking at ease, this Zhang Tianhai is his son-in-law no matter what, and it is a very face-saving thing to praise.

"It seems that my son has really become a talent, Brother Youren is kind to me!" Zhang Fuhan sighed for a long time.

Just as he was talking, Zhang Fuhan remembered something again, so he asked again: "By the way, how did my Yulin marry Ling Qianjin?"

"It's a long story. I heard from my daughter that they met on the front line in Shanghai. Later, maybe the two of them saw each other right. Then that's it. Did they get married yesterday, or did they get married on the first day?" Li Zongren, Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth War Zone, officiated the wedding, and the witness was Xu Zuyi, chief of staff of the Fifth War Zone. Now they are still fighting on the front line in Xuzhou, so I don't know the specific situation." Zheng Boqu said, as to who is chasing whom In this aspect, he certainly wouldn't say that he was the son of someone else whose daughter was chasing after him. How embarrassing that would be!
As for why Zheng Boqu knew about this, it was all guesswork. Based on what he knew about his daughter, he was a person with his eyes above his head.

If Zheng Man is not interested in others, you will not be able to catch up with them no matter what. For example, there were quite a few people who chased his daughter when they settled down in Nanjing!But I didn't see any son or yamen who could harm his daughter.

Furthermore, his daughter is indeed somewhat extroverted, so in all likelihood, it is Zhang Yulin who she took the initiative to chase after.

However, from Zheng Boqu's point of view, his daughter's vision is really pretty good--this pick selected such a capable man, and the point is that she was promoted by her own ability.

As for Yu Youren, that’s not considered a backer at all. Let’s not say that Yu Youren was engaged in the government system before, and basically could not interfere with the military system. It is said that Yu Youren is now in a semi-retired state. What can I do for you?If he could really help Zhang Tianhai, this kid wouldn't have been the deputy company commander for so long, and he wouldn't be promoted until he arrived at the Songhu battlefield.
