chaotic world

He Si's heart was beating like a drum, but he still maintained his superficial composure. After thinking for a moment, he lowered his voice and asked, "Who else knows about this?"

"Yunfeng went to my brother's humble house that day, and all the guests in the hall saw him. He is also a prominent figure. If my brother admits his mistake, the others can't admit it together, right?" Hou Daichen said strangely, "But I went to him in private. Others don't know about this matter, I didn't even tell my own brother, how can I talk nonsense about things that don't make sense?"

"Who is he with?" He Si frowned, and then asked.

"According to my brother, he came and went alone, without a car and no one to follow him, and then he left in a hurry. My brother was worried and found someone to take care of him. Yunfeng dated a woman to watch a show together, but when the show was over, he would go Gone."

"Oh" He Si responded, vaguely judging in his heart that this was an escape, and Du Yunfeng was avoiding it, but he couldn't figure out the reason for it.

That's all for him to go back to Tianjin, why didn't he go home?

What is he hiding from?

Why didn't he return to Fengtian?No, why did he escape from Fengtian?

This matter is very strange, even He Si can see that he has committed a terrible crime, as long as Du Yunfeng bows his head and admits his mistake, Zhou Lan will forgive him, but Du Yunfeng himself doesn't know?

But in front of the Hou Daichen, it was inconvenient for him to explain the Xiaoqiang Rebellion this time.If Du Yunfeng really died, he could say it was an accident, Zhou Lan lost a good brother, that's all!But Du Yunfeng reappeared wobbly, coming strangely and going strangely, obviously not under Zhou Lan's control.

Hou is a friend of the two, if the eldest brother is alive and fights to the death with the head of the group, Hou must have a position.

Du Yunfeng didn't say this, so He Si couldn't make it clear. He knew Zhou Lan, so he might not be willing to let others know in detail.

After pondering for a moment, He Si decided to give Hou Daichen an answer. He explained that Du Yunfeng came to the customs for activities, after all, Zhou Lan could not enter the customs.

"I'm afraid the Nationalist government's arrest warrant is not only valid in the customs. Although our regiment is heavily guarded in Fengtian, military affairs always have to show their faces. There are always hot-blooded people who are desperate. It's not worthwhile to be blacked out." He Si explained, so Du Yunfeng said earlier I went to Shanghai for a while, and went north to Tianjin to meet some military and political dignitaries, because they are all sensitive people and it is not convenient to show up.

"Adjutant Du has always been cautious in handling things. It is estimated that he showed up because he was very concerned about his brother's condition. It may not be deliberate, but after all, too many people know it is not good." He Si said.

"So," Daichen Hou didn't quite believe this vague explanation, but it was reasonable after careful consideration, "it's understandable."

With the relationship between the two of Zhou Hou, there is no need to be courteous.The real master was not at home, and there were orphans and widows at home. After chatting for a while, the ministers left.

He Si and Du Yunhai sent the waiter to the car all the time, and watched the car out of the gate politely and thoughtfully until they disappeared around the turn.

Du Yunhai was very happy when he got home, he still likes Tianjin.At home, Fengtian was restricted from going out during that time, and he didn't actually see any fun scenes. He was stuck in the heating room all the time. If it wasn't for accompanying Zhou Lan, he would have been suffocated. Sa Huan ran out to meet the teachers and classmates.

As Zhou Lan's confidant, this is not the first time that He Si lives at home. Apart from avoiding female relatives, the Zhou family does not treat him as an outsider, and he can live comfortably by himself.I went to visit the old lady, and talked about Zhou Lan's recent situation to reassure the old man, so there is nothing important for him to do at home.

He lives in a guest room on the second floor, at the end of the corridor, deep in the second floor is Zhou Lan's large bedroom, which was very spacious and comfortable.There is no Du Yunfeng's bedroom in this building, that is to say, the big bedroom belongs to the two of them.

He Si bowed his head and fiddled with the pocket watch in his hand, but the hands of the watch did not move, but his heart kept calculating.

Even after discovering the pocket watch, he had a premonition and was mentally prepared.

But the other people saw it with their own eyes and said it with certainty, which still shocked him uneasy.

He sank into the sofa, thinking about the ins and outs in isolation.

The eldest brother rebelled suddenly, the eldest brother died undeservingly, and the eldest brother treated him well.

But who "should" be?He just saw a little hope.

Over the years, he has seen it too clearly. Zhou Lan is cruel, vicious and seldom human. He is calm and kind to everyone. That is because he has no feelings for everyone. It is like treating flowers, plants, trees, tables, chairs and benches for my use. There is a difference between liking and disliking, but not the kind of liking of the same species.

His world is very small, there are only a few people, and his love is very little, just a little bit, all of which are given to Du Yunfeng.

Du Yunfeng got him and kicked him away again, still in public.

But Zhou Lan still held the pitifully little love and trust, was stubborn, obsessed with no regrets.

He Si loves him so much that he hates him a little.

But he has no time to hate him now, Zhou Lan entrusted him with a lot of things, he has to do everything well.

It's really hateful, you use me as your confidant, but I'm not in your confidant.

When Xiaobao came to Tianjin, he was very manly at first, and he was very afraid of strangers.There used to be an old woman who took care of him. He usually played with a group of little soldiers in the barracks. The young man in Qing Yishui was used to being picked up by anyone at any time.

The mansion in Tianjin is big enough, running wildly, but not meeting a few people, it is empty.

Xiaobao is sensitive, everyone around him has changed, others are cautious, afraid of crying for no reason, always nagging about Dad?There was only one He Si he was familiar with, and he pawed him like a tortoise, but in the end He Si couldn't go anywhere.

After coaxing for a few days, Shumei also came up to help. She has a gentle temperament, making soft and sweet red bean cakes, and sweet rice dew that children love. Her voice is soft, and her big eyes are watery. The big braids were neatly braided, gentle and considerate.

At first she finished it, put it on the table, turned her head and went out, the little treasure picked up He Si's snot all over, He Si coaxed him non-stop, and didn't dare to scare him, and he was making him lose his temper.After clicking his eyes a few times, Xiaobao was tired, so he asked He Si to bring him pastries.

"Just like your father, he likes to order people around." He Si whispered, scratching the tip of his little nose.

"You dare to speak ill of my dad, I will tell dad!" Xiaobao shouted.

"Okay, Gan Ming will take you back and tell him."

"When are we going back?" Xiao Bao asked with red bean cake stuffed in his mouth, bulging, afraid of falling out.

"It won't be long, spring will pass, summer at most, I'll take you back, but you have to be obedient, okay?"

"Okay!" Xiaobao agreed with his mouth, but still clasped his clothes tightly with his hands, fearing that he would run away, and even followed him to the bathroom.

After a few days, the red bean cake became comfortable to eat, and it was time to think about it. When Shumei hadn't delivered it, Xiaobao ran to the kitchen to look at it. Shumei turned her head and smiled, bent over and said to him: "Young master, hurry up!" Alright, I'll make corn soup for you today."

Children naturally need maternal love. Xiaobao has never had much contact with women, especially young women. Shumei treats him well. The three-year-old doll is very coaxable, and he and Shumei warmed up within three or two days.

When He Siman looked for him in the yard, Xiao Bao had already gone to Shumei's house to take a nap.

In name, Shumei is Zhou Lan's housekeeper and the old lady's confidant, and Xiaobao is the young master of his Zhou family. The old lady looks at her grandson like an eyeball, and wishes that Shumei would carry the child around her every day.

It's just that Xiaobao doesn't want to be bored and run around, so Shumei has more responsibilities to take care of the children and watch the young master Fu everywhere.

After finally getting away, He Si immediately went to visit a group of people and others, all of which were explained by Zhou Lan before leaving, what to say, what not to say, and what to pay attention to when dealing with whom, Zhou Lan had told him in detail before, During that period of time, Zhou Lan would tell him whatever came to her mind, as if she was afraid of missing something.

A large list of candidates came down, and He Si realized later that this was Zhou Lan's entire social circle in Tianjin, and he entrusted all his contacts to himself.

Especially when visiting Mr. Lu who was having fun in the bank, Lu Baichen wrote out the large check and handed it to him across the huge desk. Lu Baichen looked at him from bottom to top, and his eyes made He Si feel very uncomfortable. It's like looking at a check and trying to scrape off some money.

Lu Baichen leaned forward with the check in his arms and handed it to him.

He Si met his gaze, and was about to touch the check between his fingers, but the other party withdrew the check with a swipe, lowered his gaze slightly, and raised it again. He looked at He Si with unknown meaning.

He Si's eyes shifted from the check to the eyes of the other party. Zhou Lan said that the surname Lu loves money. If you see money rebelling, don't be soft. If the situation is severe and the enemy is outnumbered, remember to ask Mr. Hou for help.

He went into a big bank like a safe, and he was searched beforehand. He Si didn't even have any embroidery needles on him. You have to get them out together.

Thinking of this, He Si smiled inexplicably.

Seeing him laugh, Lu Baichen also smiled.

He would be wrong.

"Such a large sum is Mr. Zhou's wealth and life!" Leaning back in the chair with the check in between, Lu Baichen smiled radiantly, with rich meaning. He is a handsome young man, and the corners of Danfeng's eyes were originally raised. Looking at He Si from the corner of his eyes at this moment, he has full confidence in his appearance, "Mr. He must take it well."

The black charcoal head in front of him smiled inexplicably, and slowly leaned forward: "Mr. Lu, how do I get it?"

He Si smiled and approached each other.The other party made it clear that they would not give him the check—it was Zhou Lan's hard-earned money.

If it were someone else, such as Du Yunfeng, he would have already seen that Mr. Lu was showing his favor. If he hadn't been interested in what was in front of him, he wouldn't have such a tactful gaze and a pun.

It's a pity that He Si is a fool when it comes to looking at men. If Mr. Lu is a big girl, He Si can still judge it clearly.It's a pity that in the eyes of He Si, the same sex is either a comrade in arms or an enemy, and there is no other choice.

As for Zhou Lan, his existence has nothing to do with gender, he is Zhou Lan, and I like him not because he is a man.

For men other than Zhou Lan, they are all out of his range of hunting.

Sailing on the sea in the dark night, one party typed Morse code, the other waved semaphore, completely did not understand each other's meaning, and the two ships approached.

Lu Baichen didn't even see He Si's movements clearly. The other party had already arrived in front of him, and he pushed him on the tall chair. Knowing that there is no weapon in hand, He Si was a little surprised: "How do I get it?"

"It hurts me," Lu Baichen sniffled. This force is too strong. He likes stronger men, but this force is also too strong. If it's on the bed...

The pain in his wrist didn't stop Lu Baichen from running out of control all the way, and he ran thousands of miles in an instant. It was thanks to his illusions that he didn't turn his face from the pain.

He Si was close, the bridge of the nose was straight, and the single eyelid was slightly inward. This distance is clear, very masculine, and Lu Baichen was a little excited. He smiled again and said, "Take it easy, it hurts."

No matter how slow He Si was, he realized that something was wrong. When he saw the other party's glowing eyes, he immediately got goosebumps, and suddenly realized the other party's intentions and his own misunderstanding. Push away and stand up straight.

"Oh, don't let me talk about it," Lu Baichen really saw him getting more and more pleasing to the eye, especially when the other party blushed up to the neck, and he said, "Mr. He, what's the matter with you, don't you want the check?"

Of course, He Si was a little at a loss, he stretched out his hand to grab it, and said in his mouth: "Mr. Lu, stop joking."

Lu Baichen developed a new interest.He naturally likes men, especially men with a masculine air. He has passed by many people, and after looking at them, he knows that the other party is definitely not a veteran in love, and even, in front of men, he is a rascal.

I like this, he is almost drooling.

He also likes Du Yunfeng and Zhou Lan. They are eye-catching, and he wants either one for him. It's a pity that the two are combined by themselves, and he can't get involved.

Du Yunfeng teased his younger brother before, but it's a pity that his younger brother is a master who neither men nor women love, otherwise he, as an older brother, would really be jealous.

Today he doesn't need to be jealous, this handsome young man is very appetizing to him, with broad shoulders and long legs, those hands are so powerful that he is crushed on the sofa.

If he met another man, He Si would probably start beating him up. Unfortunately, Lu Baichen is Zhou Lan's friend, and if the other man doesn't turn his back on him, He Si can't set this precedent.

His name was Mr. Lu, and the other party just giggled, making his skin crawl. He just wanted to get the check and leave as soon as possible.

Lu Baichen had other thoughts, he put his hands behind his back, and hid the check, he shook his head, "Mr. He is too impatient, which hand do you think it is in?"

"Mr. Lu, I'm not very patient," He Si said, leaning forward, grabbing the left hand, and pulling the right hand, the check was in this hand.

It's a pity that this posture was like a hug, Lu Baichen seemed to be forced, but in fact he jumped into his arms and pecked him on the cheek.

He Sihe jumped away as if he had been electrocuted. He clenched his fists in his hands, and he just held himself down and didn't swing out.

He didn't dare to stay longer for a minute. This Mr. Lu is simply an old goblin. He is too terrible. He Si has never met this kind of person, and he has never paid attention to this character before. He was as surprised as Grandma Liu when he entered the Grand View Garden. His nausea was completely controlled by reason so that he didn't show it on the spot.

As if running away, He Si took the check and said goodbye, and ran out of the bank building at a trot. It was too scary and almost got eaten. He really couldn't stand this.

After starting the car in the cab and sitting still, he remembered to look at the check, and the bank would not change it if it was damaged.

Seeing this, the heart that had just stabilized immediately rose to the throat.

This is a huge amount. He has been with Zhou Lan for so long, but he didn't know that Zhou Lan had so much money.

So many, so many that he couldn't think of it, and he couldn't believe it after seeing it.

Lu Baichen was right, this was Zhou Lan's wealth and life.

A check was stuffed into his chest again, and his heartbeat was pressed forcibly. I have never seen so much money in my dreams. I am afraid that Zhou Lan has obtained violently over the years. This is all. Zhou Lan is really obsessed with money. Call it fanaticism.

You can even die for money.

The guy whose money is more important than his life.

Now I have scraped myself clean, and let him take away all my savings.

Slowly driving in the bustling city of Tianjin, He Si was carrying Zhou Lan's life in his arms, and his thoughts wandered uncontrollably. He smelled a strange smell again and became even more restless.

A person who valued money more than life now quietly separated money from life.

This is not a good sign.Back then, only Du Yunfeng could win Zhou Lan's money, and the others didn't dare to covet it at all. There was no room for pecking at the rewards.

For the sake of money, Zhou Lan can kill heroes and destroy the whole family, he can do anything.

When the money arrived in Tianjin, Xiaobao also sent it, so what valuable people and things are there around Zhou Lan?

This kind of panic was aggravated in HSBC Bank. The few suitcases brought back were all real gold bars, some of which were collected by He Si himself, and more came from unknown sources. There must be more than the original security team's underground vault.

Watching the gold bars go into the bank's safe, the president of HSBC personally received this low-key big customer. This huge amount of wealth made the American bearded man laugh from ear to ear, and the manager beside him never straightened up.

Part of the property was placed in Du Yunhai's account, and his classmates who were everywhere in the street would definitely not believe that there was an extremely rich college student among them,

The third aunt and the dumb uncle also opened separate accounts, which Zhou Lan told He Si before. The aunt has more, and Shumei's future dowry will be paid in it.

Nearly half of the property was placed in Xiaobao's name, because the cub was too young, so Auntie Dumb and Uncle Yunhai had to sign three people to use the money.

Everything that needs to be done has been done, and there is still a small part left. Although in Jinshan, this handful does not look like a lot, but in terms of the number of millions, it is also a very large amount. It's really delicious and spicy, and I've been living in Tianjin for a lifetime.Not only that, the children and grandchildren are enough to hang around for several lifetimes.

When He Si handed over the money to the Zhou family, he was told that it belonged to him.

"The money is for you, fourth brother." Du Yunhai said to He Si, "Brother Mu'an has explained it, and the money matter has been settled. This part is your reward."

He Si was surprised, he was doing things for Zhou Lan, it was a soldier who carried out orders, and it was also due to personal feelings, how could he get paid, let alone such a large sum, it was very strange.

I don't want it, he said.

"Brother Mu'an said, there is too much money, and I am alone and alone. I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the money, and it will bring danger. With your help, he will be more at ease." Du Yunhai was in Zhou Lan's study, truthfully telling the truth. It is said that he is an adult, so he should look like an adult, and he is imitating his brothers' appearance, keeping a strict eye and pretending to be old-fashioned.

Sitting across from the desk, He Si was caressing a thin check, feeling uncomfortable. If Zhou Lan gave him the money with his own hands, it would be a reward from him, and he continued cheerfully.The check in Du Yunhai's hand has another meaning, money and goods, equal value transaction.

It's ridiculous to say that Li Bainian, the youngest, got this number by calculating with his bureaucracy, and he, He Si, just did something according to Zhou Lan's instructions, and he reaped a lot.

"Okay, I'll take it first, but the money is too much, and I'm useless. I'll ask the team leader when I get back." He Si still agreed. Zhou Lan's wish, it's useless for him to entangle with Du Yunhai.

"Okay, but it's more than that." Then Du Yunhai opened the desk drawer in an orderly manner, took out a brown paper bag, and took out a few pages of paper that were connected together, "This is the deed, and it was also given to you by Brother Mu An."

Du Yunhai admires He Si very much, he is taciturn and reliable in his work, like the shadows of his elder brother and elder brother Mu An, not showing off, but very safe.

When he lived in Fengtian, Zhou Lan told him some things to do after returning to Tianjin, because many things were said at will, although he remembered them in his heart, he left some details behind.

For example, Zhou Lan later added that the deed should not be given to He Si in a hurry. When summer comes, the house in the Belgian Concession will be repaired again, and then it can be given to He Si when it is repaired.

Remembering a lot of important things, Du Yunhai self-righteously ignored the "unimportant" parts - "Don't give the deed to He Si in a hurry."

Maybe he heard it at the time, but after understanding it, it would be better if the house was repaired once, and it would be better for He Si when the time comes.

It was inconvenient for Zhou Lan to speak clearly, so Du Yunhai carried out the order carelessly.

"Give me a house?" He Si narrowed his eyes.

A house is not worth money, you can take it everywhere, Tianjin gave him a real estate, what does Zhou Lan mean?

"Aha," Du Yunhai explained with a big heart, "It was a house in the Belgian Concession. It was bought for us to live in before, and it was smaller than the one we live in now. The current British Concession was originally owned by my brother and brother Mu An. Yes, for living and doing business, but they are not in Tianjin now, so let us move here. Brother Muan said, the Belgian Concession is for you. If you don’t like it, you can sell it and buy other properties. , Of course, if you want to buy again, it’s best to buy the one in the British Concession, which is closer to us. We won’t go back to live there, the three-story house here is very big, and my brother and brother Mu’an will also live in this house when they come back.”

He Si's back felt cold, and he asked back: "The head of the regiment and Adjutant Du come back to live?"

"That's right," Du Yunhai smiled without any distractions, "Brother Mu An said, soon, he will come back with my brother after finishing some things. It won't be long, he has a solution."

In the large study room with plenty of sunlight and strong heating, He Si shivered. He perfunctoryly said a few words to Du Yunhai, and then hurried out of the Zhou family mansion.

Going straight to the telegraph office, he sent a telegram to Guan Nei.

After deliberating over and over again, he sent a report to Li Guosheng——Is everything safe at home?Can anyone show up?

Before leaving get off work in the evening, he smoked a pack of cigarettes, and the cigarette case was crushed, and he got a reply from the other party, which was very simple, don't read about it, no one is fine.

After thinking about it for a while, he felt that there was no need for Li Guosheng to lie. If Du Yunfeng really returned to Fengtian and threw himself into the trap, or walked close to the security team, Li Guosheng would not refuse to tell him about such a big matter.

That means Du Yunfeng didn't return to Fengtian?

He sent a telegram again, this time to ask Zhou Lan for instructions, if he wants to go home, whether or not.

This time the telegram came back faster, and it was a question—is there a change?

He Si replied truthfully that everything went well.

Later, Zhou Lan's call back was much simpler, and he was ordered not to return outside the customs within three months.

It is hard to add these two words later.

Since it is an order, there is no room for negotiation.

But the question mark in He Si's heart is already very big.He wanted to carry out the order, but he was unwilling to wipe out the question mark.

Looking at the house deed, he stared at the bright red handprint on Zhou Lan's signature, knowing with certainty that it would be very dangerous for Zhou Lan to take any action outside the customs.

Watching the big family anxiously, he wondered if in Zhou Lan's plan, someone would have the idea of ​​this family and put him here in the town house?

There is nothing wrong with the town house, he will definitely die.
