Several times in dreams

Chapter 67 Tiger, Leopard, Jackal
"What happened?" Meng Wanying panicked, and the needle and thread in her hand fell to the ground.

"I don't know, Second Miss, the long-term worker of your family, the one named Chang Sheng, is waiting for you at the door after the car has been set up."

Meng Wanying hurriedly tidied up briefly, left a note for her mother, and went out to Changsheng's car.

"Changsheng! What happened?"

As soon as she got in the car, Meng Wanying asked anxiously.

"The young master was wounded by the national army."

"Why? Wen Jun is not such a reckless person, why did he get along with the national army..."

"I don't know either. It was the guy from the shop who ran back to report the news!"

"Is the young master seriously injured? Where is the injury?" Meng Wanying was very worried.

"Fortunately, there is no injury, but there are bruises all over the body."

Meng Wanying's heart was in a panic, she wished she could fly home in no time, the road was slippery when it snowed, and Changsheng was afraid of making a mistake, so she didn't dare to go fast, which made Meng Wanying even more anxious.

After finally getting home, Chang Sheng helped Meng Wanying out of the car. Wen Lan had already been waiting by the roadside, breathing on her hands from the cold. When her sister-in-law came back, Wen Lan hurriedly helped her into the yard.

When they came to the room, Wen Jun was lying on the bed with a bruised nose and a swollen face, while Jiang walked up and down the room moaning.

Seeing Meng Wanying came back, Jiang shi heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried to the kitchen to make bruises.

Seeing that it was Wanying who came back, Chen Wenjun complained angrily: "I still brought you back, I told them not to tell you, it's cold and slippery today, so it would be great if there was a mistake!"

"I will be careful on the road. How are you injured? Why did you get beaten by the national army?"

"Don't mention it! Jackals left in the front, and tigers and leopards came in the back. Today, some national soldiers came to the shop and said they wanted to bring some high-quality wild ginseng to the chief for his life."

When Chen Wenjun talked about the excitement, he touched the wound on his face and grinned in pain, "Ouch!"

"If the pain is severe, I'll give you some medicine." Wanying felt distressed for a while.

"No, I just wiped it, and I went on to say that these people are going to leave after taking the ginseng. The guy saw that he hadn't paid the money yet, so he stopped him from leaving."

"The tall man at the head kicked the guy down. I hurried up to stop him. I said, Mr. Jun, calm down. He can't talk. You settle the bill here, and I'll wrap it up for you. It’s also nice to give away.”

"There's nothing wrong with you saying that. Could it be that they still want to take it away without paying? How is that different from the Japanese?"

"That's right! That tall man grabbed me by the neck and said, I beat the devils with my life on the front line, and now you ordinary people, take your ginseng, and you ask me for money?"

"Nonsense! I don't know about other places, but in our holy city, isn't it all the Eighth Route Army and guerrillas who beat devils?"

"Hush! You can't say this outside in the future. I said it at the time. We are a small business and have capital. You should pay less, Mr. Jun."

"and after?"

"Later? Then I was like this. Several of them beat me hard and hit me on the back with gun butts. The tall man said, if you ask me for money, I will kill you!"

"It's so unreasonable! I'll go find their chief!"

"No way! You are a weak woman. It's cold and slippery today. If you are beaten by them again, what will happen to the child in your stomach? Let's bear with it, ordinary people."

Seeing that Chen Wenjun was about to get out of bed in a hurry to stop her, Meng Wanying quickly agreed not to go to the barracks to judge, and then calmed down Wenjun.

When Wenjun drank the medicine and fell asleep, Meng Wanying became more and more angry as she thought about it. The Japanese bullied the common people, so why are we still bullying our own people?

Meng Wanying couldn't sit still for a while, so she got up and asked Changsheng to set up a car, and lied about going to get Wenjun to get medicine. Jiang was worried, so she asked Wenjing to follow her.

When they arrived at the barracks, Meng Wanying ostentatiously told the guards that she was an acquaintance of Chief Hou and she came to him for something urgent.

The guard looked at the young woman with an extraordinary bearing on her brows, and she spoke confidently, so she hurriedly reported and invited Meng Wanying in after a while.

After meeting Head Hou, Meng Wanying first reported the name of the third brother, and Head Hou was naturally very enthusiastic, and quickly said that Meng Xianchen had a good relationship with her, and had entrusted herself to take care of her family before leaving.

Seeing Captain Hou talking loudly, Meng Wanying told him about her officers going to the shop to grab things and beating people.

Head Hou frowned while listening, pondered for a while, and said to Meng Wanying that military discipline must be strictly enforced in the future, please bear with me this time!

After all, he took out some money, saying that he was paying for the loss of the store and Wenjun's medical expenses in his own name.

Meng Wanying smiled and said that she didn't come here to claim compensation, but mainly because she felt that treating the people like this was unruly, which also affected the image of the national army.

Head Hou repeatedly said yes, and repeatedly accompanied him no, and sent Wanying to the door.

Meng Wanying thought as she walked, it seemed that this robbing of people's property was an isolated case, and she came to the door when she was upset, relying on the relationship of the third brother, she couldn't help feeling a little ridiculous.

When she was about to leave the barracks, Meng Wanying suddenly realized that she had forgotten her cloak, and hurried back.

As soon as I arrived at the door of Chief Hou's office, I heard him get angry inside, "One by one, these ordinary people, after a few days of comfortable life, kicked their noses on their faces and came to the door."

"If it weren't for the fact that she is Meng Xianchen's cousin... Let me tell you guys, I will walk around her shop in the future for no other reason. If Meng Xianchen becomes famous in the future and the official sits on top of me, it doesn't matter. benefit!"

"This cousin of his really treats herself like a dish!"

Meng Wanying's face was flushed with anger, what kind of national army is this, they are simply bandits!
With a cold face, Meng Wanying knocked on the door and went in, took her cloak, turned around and left, walked to the door and said, although I am an ordinary citizen, what is the difference between you and the Japanese?
A few people were left looking at each other, and the sound of teacups breaking came from behind.

When he got home, Wen Jun had already woken up. Seeing Meng Wanying coming back from the outside in a snowstorm, he knew that she would not listen to the persuasion and went to find the national army.

"You have a stubborn temper, how are you? Are you not angry?"

"Don't mention it!" Meng Wanying sighed, told the whole story, and exclaimed, "From this point of view, the difference between the National Army and the Eighth Route Army is really too great."

"That's right. When the Eighth Route Army was in charge of the government, we wanted to provide food, but they insisted on leaving half of it for us, saying that the common people should not go hungry."

"The food was robbed by the Japanese last time, Zhenjiang and the others finally compensated our family."

"People's troops don't take people's needles and stitches. They really do what they say! Look at the national army again. If you don't give them, you will rob them, and if you rob them, you will beat them. How is this different from bandits!"

The young couple became more and more angry, and they were not in the mood to even have dinner.

After the Chinese New Year, the Spring Festival opened, and Meng Xianjun almost recovered. After school started, the school asked him to take care of the library in order to take care of him.

This is really an idle job. Meng Xianjun only needs to sit at the desk every day, issue receipts for students who borrow books, register them in the book, and maintain order by the way.

Because of his inconvenient legs and feet, a senior student offered to help him organize and move books.

This young man was named Gu Yanzhi. Every day after school or when there was no class, he would come to the library early to help clean up and arrange the bookshelves neatly before the students who borrowed books arrived.

Meng Xianjun liked this student from the bottom of his heart.
