Chapter 51: Annoying Conflict

Grain is either hidden in caves or transported into the mountains through earth elevators. Flammable straw is also moved out of the village and piled up in the wilderness..././ Doing these tasks may cause the village to suffer less damage, but may not necessarily prevent the Japanese from setting fires.

Meng Youtian frowned slightly, gently waved his whip, and drove towards the village in a donkey cart. He was still thinking about how to deal with the Japanese. Putting a mine formation in the village may anger the Japanese, but the Japanese would not burn and kill because the village was not guarded. Since that is the case, it would rather be broken than to destroy my home. If you destroy my home, I would have to throw away a few more lives.

Moreover, based on the current Japanese equipment level, it is theoretically feasible to use dense mine arrays in the village. Because the Japanese army's bombing ability is not that strong, and there are not so many engineers. If there were missiles, multiple rocket launchers, or even cluster bombs, which could detonate most mines at once, Meng Youtian would certainly not use this trick.

There is also tunnel warfare that can be used. With a half-blue brick wall, although the space is narrow, using Duyiju can kill the enemy at close range. Tumen Village, hehe, is no longer the village that can be massacred, but a battlefield for paying back blood debts. Meng Youtian thought about it and showed a cold smile.

A familiar figure appeared in Meng Youtian's sight. Qin Lianfang stood alone under a big tree not far away, looking at Meng Youtian with complex emotions.

Huo, Meng Youtian strangled the animal, jumped out of the car, and said with a smile: "Haha, Village Chief Qin, you are here to check the work, right?"

Qin Lianfang gently bit her lip and said with a slim expression: "Yes, the Japanese sweeping force is coming, and they can't be able to fight here. There are no omissions in the anti-sweeping work."

"That's right, no matter whether the Japanese come or not, we have to be prepared and be prepared for any trouble!" Meng Youtian reached out to signal Qin Lian to get in the car. "Let's go into the village and sit down and talk!"

Qin Lianfang shook her head and said, "Just say it here, you do your job carefully. There should be no omissions. The main tasks are: strengthening the walls and clearing the fields, taking refuge in the masses, and attacking the enemy."

Meng Youtian tied the animal to a tree and sat casually on a stone to report on the work of Tumen Village.

Qin Lianfang opened the notebook and listened and recorded. She waited until Meng Youtian finished speaking before asking, "Well, the flammable straw and firewood were moved outside the village. You think more thoughtful than us. After I go back, I will organize the villagers to implement it as soon as possible." After pondering for a moment, she looked up at Meng Youtian and said, "I will get married tomorrow, or marry two women. Do you think this is appropriate?"

Meng Youtian was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and said, "Do you mean the time is wrong? The Japanese are coming to sweep the storm, but I got married. Or did I marry two wives wrong?"

Qin Lianfang felt annoyed and blurted out. "You have both!"

Meng Youtian pondered for a moment and explained slowly: "Time may not be the time, but I am not ready to do it. Even my good friends in Shili Village did not notify me, nor did I delay the serious business. I dare to say that the villages in the county. If we are preparing for anti-sweeping, we are the most fully counted here. As for marrying two wives, I am actually helpless. I am sick, so I do this to make the elderly happy and get better..."

"What a filial son." Qin Lianfang said with a hint of mockery.

Meng Youtian suddenly didn't hear it and continued to say the reason, "Zijuan needs someone to take care of her, and my mother is getting older day by day, and no one is in charge of her at home, but she tied me up and couldn't do anything. Ah Xiu is a good girl, kind-hearted, hardworking and capable, and is sincere to me. Speaking of this, I feel a little sorry for her. If I marry her, I may not let her enjoy her happiness, but it adds a burden to her, making her harder and more laborious."

"Is this your reason?" Qin Lianfang asked coldly, pursed her lips and said with a sarcastic smile: "It turns out that you are not only a filial son, but also a passionate seed."

This time, Meng Youtian heard that Qin Lianfang's words were wrong, and his expression on his face became weird. He also frowned, suppressing the unhappiness in his heart, and said lightly: "You can listen to it for the reason, and if you don't listen, you are just a quibbling. In fact, this is my personal matter. There is no need to explain it to others, and I don't want everyone's approval."

Qin Lianfang pursed her lips, and the depression and dissatisfaction in her heart surged upwards, making it difficult for her to calm down and make her not feel uncomfortable. She tried her best to say patiently: "Brother Meng, the border government is preparing to convene an interim Senate to discuss matters about issuing the provisional regulations on marriage. Marriage equality between men and women, and voluntary and monogamy are the main principles. Bigamy, early marriage, taking concubines, raising maids, raising children, renting wives and other feudal marriage habits must be abolished. Doing this is an act that hinders the marriage, and may be punished."

"You are still educated and don't understand the principle of legal crime and punishment?" Meng Youtian said calmly: "Even if the law is retroactive, it is still a criminal law. I'm afraid I can't cure my crime."

"It's not a problem to cure your crime." Qin Lianfang's chest was undulating and she said anxiously: "When is it now? You can't just think about me and your family. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved at the same time. In the face of national crisis, you should put filial piety and brotherhood aside and do your best for the cause of the War of Resistance. You, the flowers and plants you still raise at home are fighting now, and guns and cannons are slamming, this kind of pleasure..."

Meng Youtian waved his hand to interrupt Qin Lianfang's preaching, and looked at Qin Lianfang's eyes becoming distant and cold. Personal happiness is far less important than the future of the country and social responsibility, but are the two just incompatible? Even a person who is devoted to the country cannot think about a great cause all day long, right?

Are there any heroes like gold? Even if there is, Meng Youtian admires it very much and does not want to get close to it, because such people are monotonous and boring, rigid and stubborn. For the sake of sacred purposes, there is actually a danger lurking, which may become a breeding ground for anti-human thoughts and political system. The facts in history made Meng Youtian very disgusted with what Qin Lianfang said. He silently untied the reins of the animal and got on the car.

"Brother Meng, you--" Qin Lianfang widened her eyes, and Meng Youtian's eyes made her feel chilled all over.

"I'm going home." Meng Youtian said dullly: "If you want to talk about work, please ask Village Chief Qin to find Qiangzi or An Meng. I am a commoner, selfish and greedy for pleasure. I really don't like talking to a noble and great person like you, and I dare not ask you to call me brother in the future." After that, he whipped the animal and ran towards the village.

Qin Lianfang was stunned on the spot, with mist covered in the cat's eyes. In the hazy view, Meng Youtian's back disappeared, and a drop of tears fell on the ground and was absorbed by the dry soil in an instant. The whip just now seemed to be sucked on her body. Meng Youtian's words with a gun and a stick were pierced in her heart like a steel needle.

…………

The sky is still so blue and the fields are still so green, but in Qin Lianfang's eyes, everything becomes a little dark. She feels both wronged and sad when walking on the road lonely and desolate. Usually, Qin Lianfang doesn't think that friendship with Meng Youtian is important, but once one party wants to lose the other party's danger, she will feel deeply the great loss of this loss and the preciousness of friendship. If she has lost it, she will regret why she doesn't cherish it.

Is it just friendship? Qin Lianfang gradually calmed down and asked herself, are the high-sounding reasons she said really her inner thoughts? Maybe it is not all right? Why did she become confused when she heard that he was going to get married or marry two wives, and wanted to destroy this from the bottom of her heart? What does such behavior mean? Could it be...

Qin Lianfang shook her head vigorously and put aside her thoughts. She gently kicked the little stone beside her feet, and she sighed long. What Brother Meng said is not without contribution. If he had no worries about family and mother, he would have more enthusiasm and energy, right? Even though his approach was a bit inappropriate, there was nothing wrong with it. His words and behavior not only interfered with Brother Meng's mood, but also damaged his friendship with Brother Meng. Well, it was friendship. Qin Lianfang stubbornly did not want to change the feelings in her heart to another closer word.

We should have a calm conversation with Brother Meng again. Qin Lianfang stopped and looked back at the Tumen Village that was already far away. Hesitated and walked forward slowly. Brother Meng was angry. Maybe it would be better to change the time. On his happy days, don't make him unhappy. Since it can't be changed, I should no longer argue with him on this issue, but should wish him happiness.

Thinking that as he walked, it was already past lunch time, Qin Lianfang didn't feel hungry at all. He just kept thinking about it, sometimes he was irritable, sometimes he regretted, and sometimes he comforted himself.

Behind her, there seemed to be a big cart's wheels and a whip. Qin Lianfang looked back, but couldn't see it completely. The big cart was driving in the winding ditch, and she could only see a piece of whip tied with red cloth strips that occasionally appeared.

When the cart turned around, Qin Lianfang's heart suddenly pounded. Meng Youtian was sitting in the car and was driving the car with a whip. She was anxious to take a few steps forward, but her feet couldn't move and stood there in a daze.

"Get on the car." Meng Youtian drove closer, stopped the animal, and said lightly with a blank expression.

Qin Lianfang hesitated for a moment and got into the car. She sat in front of her and sat side by side on the shaft of the front car with Meng Youtian.

After walking for a short while, neither of them spoke, but they were looking for the boss to break the embarrassment and estrangement. Meng Youtian pursed his lips and smiled bitterly. Why should he be serious with this girl? (To be continued.
