Chapter 5
The first time Minglou mentioned to Mingjing that he wanted to learn acting, if Mingtang hadn't stopped him in time, Mingjing might really have broken his leg.
It's not that Ming Jing looks down on those opera singers, on the contrary, she respects them very much.It's not easy for anyone to make a living in this world.
It's just that the Ming family can't. The Ming family was born to contribute their own strength to the revitalization of this country, not to play with things and lose one's ambition, and to abandon the family and forget the country.
It's just that she didn't know, it was just a plan of Ming Lou and the others, an invitation from the Ming family, who would not flatter those who wanted to use the influence of the Ming family?
In the alley where Mingcheng lived when he was a child, there was a blind fortune-teller. When he was fine or injured, he would sit quietly on the ground next to the blind man and listen to the blind man playing the erhu.
The blind man's erhu tunes are always mellow and bleak, matching the mood at the time, always makes Mingcheng burst into tears unconsciously.
The old people in the alley said that the blind man was a foreigner, or a scholar from the previous dynasty, who met a lady from an official family and died in love, but the lady lit it first, and the blind man was afraid, so he couldn't extinguish it no matter how hard he tried. He rolled his eyes and slowly went blind.
The blind man quietly told Mingcheng: He was blinded by shrapnel, and he once stood in front of all living beings, under the sky, raised his arms and shouted, "Give me back my land."Later, when the Republic of China came, he thought it would be peaceful, so he retired from the world.Now when the country is in turmoil, I am too old to shout.
When Minglou took Mingcheng away, he leaned against the low wall, tilted his head and remained motionless.
If the blind man described the first hero in Mingcheng's mind, then Minglou had no intention of making this hero concrete.
Minglou is responsible for attracting the attention of the people present and arranging the venue.
Wang Tianfeng was responsible for the firing mission of this assassination operation.
Mingcheng was originally excluded by Minglou, and he stayed behind the scenes with the people who beat the gongs and drums.
It's just that the time was wrong in the process, and there was an accident.
Although Wang Tianfeng fired his shot, it was just missed and hurt the man's lung.Minglou, who was still making faces, had to take advantage of the confusion to make another shot.
Mingcheng was waiting at the entrance of the secret passage in the background. Unlike the chaos outside, this place seemed to be outside the world.
The white shirt made him look even more slender, with a pair of innocent eyes looking around nervously.
He didn't quite understand why his elder brother insisted on him staying here, and why that senior named Wang Tianfeng always looked at him resentfully.
Moreover, he saw his eldest brother burn some papers full of words in the bedroom more than once.
Mingtai also went to school, and just visited a new music teacher a few years ago, and got along well with the teacher's youngest daughter, and the task of picking up and dropping off on every rest day fell on Mingcheng.
Minglou lives on campus and doesn't come back often.
The tabloids said that the eldest sister always met a man at night, which attracted criticism from various reporters, saying that a woman is a woman, and it is impossible to endure loneliness.
He spends most of his time studying and started a bit late, but it doesn't hinder his growth.
He will be 15 in one month, and the elder sister is thinking about letting him be a transfer student in the elder brother's class.
At the age of 12, Mingtang was already at the level of a scholar in business studies.My eldest sister had been abroad alone for a year when she was 14 years old.
He is also from the Ming family, so of course he is not bad.Even if everyone in the Ming Mansion knew that he and A Xiang were just using the same surnames, they were still members of the Ming family.
Women in the Ming family seem to be strong and powerful.
If Ming Shi (the original soy sauce character) hadn't died early, I'm afraid that when the Ming family split up, the biggest share would be hers.
Mingcheng admires Mingjing, respects Minglou, and envies Mingtai.
According to Minglou's prior instructions, Mingcheng carefully restored the backstage after Wang Tianfeng withdrew.
When he turned to leave, a Japanese soldier broke in cursing.
Mingcheng knew that it was a curse word. Aunt Gui learned a few words from the Japanese starcher and laundry, and used it to scold him when she came back.
The Japanese soldiers also saw him and made a lot of babbles.
Mingcheng didn't understand, so he shook his head.
The Japanese soldier took a few steps closer, then suddenly stopped at the same spot, raised his head and sniffed the air, finally returned his gaze to him, and smiled.
Mingcheng still shook his head, wanting to bypass the Japanese soldiers.
The Japanese soldier grabbed his wrist, threw him to the ground forcefully, then pressed him down, lowered his head into his neck, and sniffed desperately.
Mingcheng felt that the expression of the Japanese soldiers was like that of a heavy smoker seeing the smoke, frantically making people frightened.
Two or three of the buttons on the shirt collapsed due to the brute force of the Japanese soldiers, exposing the young man's thin neck and still visible rib-shaped, vigorously heaving chest.
The boy tried his best to push back, but what he got in return was a slap that almost knocked him out.
It took Minglou more than three months to finally get Mingcheng out of Aunt Gui's nightmare, and then Mingcheng began to see the world with the eyes of a normal person.For more than two years, the Ming family has also taken care of this aspect carefully. Even if they argued with Mingtai and started fighting, Mingjing only punished him to kneel down, reprimanded him loudly, and never beat him.On the contrary, Mingtai and Minglou pushed Mingjing into a hurry and resorted to family law.This is probably one of the reasons why he always felt that he was a servant, an outsider.
This slap brought out the fear in Mingcheng's heart.
His hands and feet were shaking, he couldn't exert any strength at all, and even his voice for help was as shrill as a kitten crying.He looked at the man who seemed to be crazy in front of him with pleading eyes.
As everyone knows, this kind of look makes those sadistic people more excited and unscrupulous.
The Japanese soldier pulled out his own belt and beat him on the chest, leaving bruises and bruises on his upper body.
Because of the pain, he crawled in a direction away from the injury.
The Japanese soldier uttered another curse word, dragged him back, and tried to untie his belt.
He looked at the scars on his arm in despair, sobbing, he didn't understand why he had to suffer these, and he didn't understand why Aunt Gui abused him.
Suddenly, the weight suppressing the body disappeared, followed by the sound of a pile of things falling.
The Japanese soldier fell into the costume rack and couldn't get up for a long time.
Mingcheng lay on the ground and dared not move, because his fear had not faded away.
Minglou covered Mingcheng with a costume that was closest to him.
"Ah Cheng, get out." Minglou's expressionless voice made Mingcheng's heart stop for a single word.
"Brother..." With a trembling voice, Mingcheng still knew that it was best not to provoke the Japanese, and he didn't want Minglou to cause trouble.When she first entered Ming's house, Aunt Gui went to Ming's mansion to make trouble, went to the company to make trouble, and went to tabloids to talk nonsense. If Ming Tang didn't even cajole and bluff, Ming Jing might not be able to stand up to it.
"I told you to get out!" Minglou raised his voice.
Mingcheng struggled to stand up, but after several attempts, he still slipped to the ground. His right ankle might have been injured when he struggled too hard just now, and now it hurts deeply when he moves.
A pair of hands reached out to his armpits and knee bends respectively, and hugged him horizontally.
Minglou's hand touched the wound on his back, and he hissed softly, not knowing whether Minglou heard it or not.
Gently placing him at the door, Ming Lou turned around and quickly entered the room, closing the door without giving him any chance to speak.
He knelt down and knocked on the door, panicked for a moment, and would only knock on the door while shouting: "Sir, sir..."
When the others heard the gunshots and rushed over, Ming Lou walked out of the room with a cold and indifferent expression on his face, as if what happened had nothing to do with him.
He didn't kill anyone, he just crippled a person, which was more ruthless than killing someone.
Mingtang was the first to react. He hurriedly rewrapped Mingcheng's half-slipped costume and handed it over to his subordinates. While signaling Mingjing to take Mingtai and Axiang away with his eyes, he was eager to pull Mingcheng away. Minglou surrendered himself.
The Japanese had just killed the chief, and they were supposed to search the entire yard, but when this happened, they skipped this room.Half a year later, the yard was reduced to ashes after a fire.
As for the Japanese soldier who was taken away by the Japanese, no matter how they dealt with the Ming family, they couldn't figure out why.
"Acheng?"
Opening his eyes, Mingcheng saw Minglou and Mingjing.Both of them looked at themselves worriedly.Minglou and Mingyue, one big and one small, were gnawing on apples at the door, the creaking sound was quite loud in a quiet room.
Seeing Mingcheng looking at herself again, Mingyue shouted: "Uncle!" She stuffed the half-gnawed, saliva-stained apple into Minglou's arms, without taking off her shoes, she climbed onto the bed and lay down in front of Mingcheng.
"Who does this little girl look like? My suit is very expensive." Minglou took a big bite of Mingyue's apple and saw the seeds.Only at home can he dare to feel so at ease.
Mingyue pursed her mouth, and when she was about to cry, Mingcheng stretched out his hand from under the quilt and touched her little head.
Ming Spiegel is still the attitude of the elders: "The fever is gone, let's rest for a while."
Downstairs is the intermittent sound of the record player, playing opera.
Seeing his doubts, Ming Jing said, "You're always awake, and the gramophone is broken again. There's nothing you can do. Ah Xiang is messing around."
Mingyue might also be tired, and fell asleep after a while, and curled up in his arms.
Mingcheng looked at Minglou, and he saw the question in his elder brother's eyes, which could even be called a questioning.
How should he explain why he returned to the Ming mansion in the middle of the night when the rain was pouring, and passed out in the hall.
The first time Minglou mentioned to Mingjing that he wanted to learn acting, if Mingtang hadn't stopped him in time, Mingjing might really have broken his leg.
It's not that Ming Jing looks down on those opera singers, on the contrary, she respects them very much.It's not easy for anyone to make a living in this world.
