Chapter 75 Lu Peng
Lu Peng stood behind all the time, his eyes lingering on his father, watching his every move.

When he heard that he had won the Most Improved Award, he couldn't help but open his mouth, a kind of ecstasy welled up in his heart, and he almost wanted to shout loudly!His eyes were locked on Lu Tu in a blink of an eye, and he wanted to know if his father would be happy because of it?

Seeing him walk up to the podium with a smile on his face, Lu Peng finally let go of the big stone in his heart, and put a smile on his face. Then he felt that he couldn't be too proud in front of his classmates, so he pursed his mouth and put on a serious face, as if I was afraid that if I was not careful, I would laugh out loud.

After Lu Tu said that sentence to him loudly, Lu Peng couldn't hold back anymore, his eyes were rosy, and he nodded vigorously, but the happy smile on his face could not be hidden, it was very bright.

His whole body fell into a joyful mood, and he saw Teacher Zhang waving to him in a trance, so he walked up to the podium in such a dizzy way, took the composition text from the teacher, and stood on it only knowing Silly music, but did not start reading aloud as the teacher said.

The parents in the audience couldn't tell that the child was overjoyed. After a burst of laughter, they applauded and cheered him on.

Teacher Zhang gently pushed his arm and said, "Lu Peng, you can read the composition to everyone now!"

Lu Peng finally came to his senses, and frantically opened the composition notebook.

But at this moment his mind was blank, his body kept shaking, his face was flushed red, he hummed for a long time, sweating from his nervous brow, but he couldn't pronounce a word.

Seeing this, Teacher Zhang couldn't help but chuckled and said, "It's okay, as long as you do what your father did just now, it will be fine!"

Lu Peng raised his head, and at a glance, he saw the gentle smile on his father's face in the seat below the stage. His eyes were full of encouragement, and he even gave himself a thumbs up.

With a straight body and a serious expression, he read aloud: "My father. My father works in Guangzhou, which is where I used to study and go to school. I still remember the big house in Meiyuan Building, where I left my best memories. childhood memories."

"I love my dad very much. But since my mother brought me and my sister back, I seldom see my dad. Sometimes he comes back once a month, and sometimes he can't come back to see us for months. I asked Mom, why is this? Mom said, Dad is busy with work and works very hard, and he has to work hard to make money to support us. So I want to help Dad lighten the burden so that he doesn't have to work so hard in the future!"

"I study hard to do housework and help take care of my younger sister. But my younger sister cries a lot, and I can't coax her well. Whenever this happens, I miss my dad very much. Once I thought about it, I shed tears unconsciously. tears."

"Suddenly one day, my father came back! He said that he would not leave after he came back this time, and I jumped up happily at that time!"

"Dad is very caring and takes care of my sister and me in every possible way. He takes me to school every day, and he does all the housework by himself. He really deserves to be my good father!"

"It's great to be back, Daddy!
He still loves himself as much as he did when he was a child!He still likes to joke and tease people, and he won't get angry no matter how noisy he is!My sister likes him too!

I really like my current home! "

Lu Peng stuttered a little at first, but soon he got into the mood, read the whole composition smoothly and fluently, finally bowed to all the parents, and ran off the stage bouncing.

Lu Tu applauded with other parents, with a smile on his face, he was very proud of his son's performance.

He has seen his son's performance during this time, and it can be said that the progress is gratifying!
When he first came back, it can be said that Lu Peng treated his studies with a completely perfunctory attitude.I often evade reality, refuse to do my homework seriously, and my handwriting is also very scribbled.

Unlike Long Lanxiang's belief in the practice of "a filial son is born under the stick", facing this situation, he did not speak out to blame.Only when playing with my son, I would occasionally mention a few words with a smile.

This gentle way of communication greatly won Lu Peng's favor and inspired his fighting spirit.

After two or three days of getting along with each other, not only did he become more serious about his studies, he could finish his homework on time every day, and his handwriting was much better than before.

As far as the current stage is concerned, Lu Tu actually doesn't pay much attention to his son's academic performance.

What he admired most was Lu Peng's attitude and sense of responsibility.Learning is a lifetime thing, and so is being a human being. Destiny always favors responsible people!
What's more, as long as he can continue to maintain this enthusiasm for learning in the future, the improvement in grades will come naturally!Lu Tu firmly believed in this.

The last item of the parents' meeting was the teacher's distribution of customized summer school uniforms donated by caring people: a white cotton T-shirt with a stand-up collar and a pair of black shorts, each student got a set.

"Today's parent meeting will end here. Next, I will read the names of the students. Parents are invited to come to the stage one by one to receive the school uniforms, and then you can leave. Thank you for your participation."

After speaking, Teacher Zhang asked all the students to go to the podium to help distribute the clothes.

After a burst of warm applause, the parents took turns to get the clothes, kept saying thank you, and walked out of the classroom with happy faces.

A group of two students distributed clothes in small, medium and large sizes, and Lu Peng was among them.

He quickly handed the clothes to the parents, and quickly distributed all the clothes in front of him.

Lu Tu stood at the door of the classroom with his clothes in his hands, smiling as he watched him keep busy, and waited until the end. Then he greeted the teacher, took his son's hand, and left the school gate following the pace of the campus crowd.

A round of crescent moon hangs high in the sky, and the outlines of distant mountains are looming.

The streets of the ancient city are brightly lit, bright but not dazzling, and the night is very seductive.

Tourists roam the streets in a leisurely manner, wandering in the soft and comfortable music.Despite the strong commercial atmosphere, people can still experience the tranquility and beauty unique to this small town.

Lu Tu and his son walked among the crowd with smiles on their faces.Each of them grabbed a potato cake and ate it while walking. Their steps were light and slow, and they blended into the surrounding environment naturally. Everything was so harmonious and beautiful.

Lu Peng bounced and threw the two wrapping paper bags into the trash can, ran two quick steps, came to his father, took his hand and wiped his mouth, and said with a smile: "Dad, we are going New school uniforms have been issued, and I can still wear them from last year!"

Lu Tu gave him a disgusted look, and made a gesture to wipe the oil stains on his clothes. Seeing his son laughing and running away quickly, he took out a tissue, wiped it off slowly, and put it in pocket.

He suddenly ran two steps quickly, hugged Lu Peng by the waist, and kissed him on the cheek with lightning speed, then raised his head and laughed, with a very smug look on his brows!

Feeling the gazes of passers-by on the street, Lu Peng couldn't help but feel embarrassed and kept struggling to get down.

When Lu Tu bent down to put him down, he also suddenly kissed his father on the cheek, and ran away after the kiss, leaving only a series of happy laughter.

Lu Tu ran after him, and the two chased and fled, laughing constantly, and they didn't stop until they reached Congwen Square.

Lu Peng looked at his father supporting his knees, panting heavily while laughing, walked back to stroke Lu Tu's back, and asked with concern, "Dad, are you okay?"

Lu Tu straightened up, raised his hand and rubbed his head, took his hand and walked forward, shook his head and said with a smile: "Zaizai, I'm fine! Oh, it's time to exercise in the future, and I'm tired after just a few steps. No, my physical strength is too weak!"

Lu Peng nodded in agreement, thought for a while and said, "Then let's start running tomorrow, and I will run with you!"

"Okay! Starting tomorrow, we'll get up at 05:30 and run around on Nanhua Road!" Lu Tu readily agreed.

With a bitter expression on his face, Lu Peng said in embarrassment: "Huh? Isn't 05:30 too early? I can't get up!"

Lu Tu laughed loudly, but he didn't insist that he do so, and said, "It's okay, I'll run first tomorrow! If you want to run in the future, you can run with me, okay?"

Lu Peng smiled and shouted loudly: "Okay!"

Lu Tu patted his head again, and asked with a smile, "Zaizai, does your school distribute school uniforms every year?"

Lu Peng nodded, "Yes, a set is issued every year! Sometimes it is summer, sometimes it is winter. Our teacher Zhang said that Uncle Long opened a clothing factory in Shanghai, so he donates clothes to the school every year. money."

Lu Tu looked at the clothes in his hand, the material and workmanship were not to mention, it was not the kind of shoddy and inferior products.

"Zaizai, Uncle Long helped us, he is a good man! We will learn from Uncle Long in the future, and when we are capable, we should also help the weak, okay?"

Lu Peng said as a matter of course: "Yes, I know! Our teacher Zhang said that if we want to learn the spirit of Uncle Long, we must first make ourselves strong! Only by becoming capable people can we help others People! Just like Grandpa Xiong Xiling, Grandpa Shen Congwen and Grandpa Huang Yongyu, no matter where they go, they will never forget their hometown people!"

Lu Tu really didn't expect that such a great truth would come from his son's mouth!
He smiled gratifiedly and said, "That's right, you're right! But Zaizai, many times, it's easy for us to say something, but it's hard to do it. Have you ever thought about what kind of person you want to be in the future?" ?”

Lu Peng looked at the building at home not far away, then looked up at his father, and said with some embarrassment: "I want to be a soldier when I grow up!"

It was the first time Lu Tu heard about his son's ideals, he couldn't help showing surprise, and asked curiously, "Why?"

Lu Peng scratched his head and said with a chuckle: "I heard that the soldiers in Phoenix are very powerful. You can't make an army without an army, and you can't make a Hunan without a stick! Is that true, Dad?"

Lu Tu laughed loudly and gave him a thumbs up, "That's right, you even know this! Soldiers defend their homes and the country, they have ambition! Zizai, I support you!"

Lu Peng took his hand and jumped up happily!
After he smirked for a long time, he suddenly thought of another thing, and said with some hesitation: "Dad, can you not tell mom first? I'm afraid she will disagree."

Lu Tu led him up the stairs of the building's gate, and said confidently, "Don't worry, Zaizai, your mother will definitely agree! Do you know why there is a saying that 'you can't make an army without a pole, and you can't make a Hunan without a pole'?" ?”

Before Lu Peng could answer, he told the historical allusion himself.

Since Zeng Guofan formed Xiangyong's subordinates and defeated the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, there has been a saying that "without Hunan, there is no army".

In modern history, Hunanese were indeed at the forefront when it came to life and death, such as Tan Sitong during the Reform Movement of 200, Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren during the Revolution of [-], and Cai E, the god of war in the Republic of China. They are all Hunanese; In addition, in the Whampoa Military Academy, which imported countless military generals for modern China, Hunan people accounted for a quarter, and there were more than [-] generals from Hunan.

From the perspective of other provinces, it seems that all Hunan people are very powerful, but in the eyes of Hunan people themselves, the people in Xiangxi are the most brave and fearless.

From the end of Qianlong to the beginning of Jiaqing, a three-year-long uprising of the Miao people took place in Fenghuang, western Hunan. The Qing court mobilized troops from seven provinces including Guizhou, Hubei, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guangdong and Guangxi to encircle and suppress the Miao people in three ways. main force.

But since then, the imperial court has become more and more worried about Xiangxi, so a set of militarization system has been established to raise bravery and all the people are soldiers. About 1 of the [-] Phoenix people are serving in the military. They farm and fight , the imperial court allocates food and customs fees... Year after year, the Phoenix people have developed a tradition of relying on soldiers for food.So far, the martial arts spirit of the old Xiangxi has been flowing in the bones, and the games played by the children in the village are fighting and killing.

In the eyes of Fenghuang people, Guangzong Yaozu is not the number one scholar in his studies, but a meritorious service on the battlefield.From the mid-to-late Qing Dynasty to the pre-liberation period, Fenghuang had always had a special force called "gan army". They were similar to mercenaries and had very tenacious combat effectiveness.

In the subsequent Anti-Japanese War, the Xiangxi Gan Army fought in the defense of Nanchang, the counter-offensive of Yichang, and the Battle of Changsha.When every batch of Xiangxi Gan troops set out to fight, the elders of Xiangxi would always hang up the banner of "Going to fight, China will not die".

On the battlefield of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, there were also figures of the Xiangxi Gan Army.In the Battle of Laotu Mountain, Jin Zhenbiao from western Hunan killed 165 United Nations enemies from the Columbia Battalion and the 7th Division of the United States alone. Jin Zhenbiao also became the volunteer soldier who killed the most enemies and received the most medals; There is Jiang Changlu from Xiangxi. During the Battle of Shangganling, he led a company and held on for half a month, killing nearly 2000 enemies...

There are many examples of this kind of bravery in Xiangxi. What many people don't know is that Shen Congwen, a well-mannered writer, also served as the deputy master of the Phoenix Army.

There was light shining from the doorway to the corridor, and Lu Tu asked his son with a smile, "Now you know why I said mother would not object, right?"
