Double Bracelets

On August [-]st, Jiang Xize finally came back.As soon as he entered the door, he was scolded by his mother.The lady's final conclusion is that the old lady gave birth to two sons, and it is really maddening to see the daughter-in-law and forget the mother's things.Only the old man glanced at Jiang Xijie leisurely in the living room, and said in a low voice, he was the same as He Zhui back then, dear son!

However, Xu's resentment was not false. Before Jiang Xijie called "Second Brother" for two days, Jiang Xize went to the front line of Xuzhou.At this time, the war is stalemate, his father originally advised him not to go, it is not appropriate to make a fuss, you can't do anything now.However, Jiang Xize went.A month later, he brought back his fiancée, sister-in-law, brother-in-law and mother-in-law.The youngest of the Jiang family was shocked again, what does this mean?However, Jiang Xize, as a son-in-law who has never been "married", began to arrange for his father-in-law to buy a house in Nanjing and Shanghai. In name, he was going to get married so he needed to resettle his family.Jiang Tonghe snorted when he heard the words: "Hmph, it's time to show your loyalty!"

However, things finally got done.During the stalemate of the war, Jiang Xiyao fought with Chen Cixiu on the front line, so naturally he couldn't come back, so he asked his wife to come back and help with the arrangements.Jiang Tonghe didn't want to send out wedding invitations widely, but when the news spread, someone actually asked him what the wedding was about.Only then did he realize that everyone took this matter as an opportunity to show their loyalty, and what was supposed to be a low-key thing turned out to be something that couldn't be handled properly.This is not in line with his personality, nor his political style. Unfortunately, it is difficult to get off the tiger now, so we have to go down the mountain with the tiger.

Fortunately, all this is over after Jiang Xijie just listened to it.She just wanted to focus on helping her brother prepare for the wedding.Just like no matter how others criticize her father and uncle's political disagreement, she doesn't need to listen to those words; just like no matter how others repeatedly remind her that Wang Jiyue will eventually become someone else's wife, she doesn't need to care about just I need to accompany her according to my own will until the end: some things are really blinding my eyes and not seeing Mount Tai.

So she and her aunt do shopping together all day long, and she is so busy that no one is there.At least from Wang Chanyue's point of view.Wang Jiyue doesn't necessarily miss her that much, after all, I always saw her a while ago, and being separated for such a period of time, it's a bit like taking a vacation safely after a busy semester.She is quite leisurely during her holidays, reading books every day, taking care of her younger sister's reading, learning how to make wine with the servant Ou at home.He didn't intend to go back to Mudu to see his mother.A while ago, I brought the brewed wine home for my mother to taste, and my mother was very satisfied, so she sent someone to bring some food over, and then told her to stay in Shanghai and not go anywhere.

I didn't plan to go anywhere, she thought, but Jiang Xijie originally wanted to go back to Tianjin to have a look, now that there is a war, she won't be able to go anywhere.Occasionally, if Wang Chanyue was praised for her hard work in her studies, she would be more than happy to take the child to watch movies and eat western food, but the little girl was not up to her expectations. "Sister, it's not that Chanyue doesn't live up to expectations, it's obviously because your standards are too high." The one who spoke was Wang Haopeng who got up late and was sitting at the dining table eating the leftover soy milk and fried dough sticks. "What did you and the second young master of the Jiang family do? You really didn't bring anything home, which made us worry." "Oh, sister, what did you say in the half month since I came back?" I have to ask it every day. I have said it all, I can’t say it. I can’t say it. No, I can, I can say it. You just think I’m going to study. It’s just a study. We all have work discipline and can’t mess around. Besides, It's not good for you to tell you. Just leave it alone." Wang Jiyue is always worried, she just doesn't like the feeling of being kept in the dark about everything, why, you don't want to leave me until something happens. included in decision-making?Even if she understands that deliberate concealment is a kind of protection in many cases.

"Oh, but Xi Ze is going to get married soon, so I'm really envious." Wang Jiyue chuckled, "Why are you envious of others? It's not that you like to play in the room by yourself since you were young, so you don't have such a good childhood sweetheart. I want to marry you." "Sister, you can't hit me like this. I'm your younger brother, a compatriot, aren't you older than me?" The two laughed together, and suddenly Wang Haopeng Sitting upright with a serious face, he said to his sister: "However, sister, Chanyue has been here for so long, and Haoxiu hasn't come to see it?"

"I didn't come here when I was here. I didn't hear anyone else mention it. You know, when he came, he could bribe him up and down, so that none of these guys would tell us. Chanyue didn't mention it either, Then I will naturally not know. Besides, what do you expect him to do when he is fine? Bring you some cigarettes?" "That's not what I meant." Wang Haopeng stood in front of his body. Qing, trying to gather as much as possible, said in a low voice, "I went to Huajie to do business two days ago, and when I heard something, I was curious." "What did you hear again?"

Wang Jiyue's expression was three points of curiosity, five points of contempt, and the remaining two points of helplessness.Three points of the Wang family's bad reputation in Shanghai come from Wang Shaoxun's double-decker, which is really too double-faced; the other seven points are all created by Wang Haoxiu.The cigarettes he smokes every day influence the business of the tobacco merchants, which shows that the tobacco and soil of this family is good; the gentlemen from the three halls {28} he summons every day are enough to earn these women a different kind of good reputation in the industry, not to mention Said he was a young child who went to sex; the money he gambled was enough for an ordinary Chinese family to live for a year, and sometimes it was not enough.He couldn't enjoy playing by himself, so he called a group of friends together, and the more he played, the bigger the game became, and the more he played, the more chaotic he was. From the celebrities on the beach to the scumbags, everyone had an impression that anyone who dared to say that he was Wang Haoxiu's friend was There is everything to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble.Wang Jianxun had no choice but to let him go with his son who was good at business but full of bad habits.There was only one time when he was beaten severely, and it almost broke his leg. The woman-obsessed Young Master Wang heard from a friend that a Yao Er{29} from the Chinese world was very good, since he went with a large group of people.As a result, the woman died the next day, and the family reported it to the government, causing a commotion all over the city.

Of course Young Master Wang refused to admit it to death, and it was indeed not him who did it.But his father is furious, you have played in that kind of place, you don't think it's dirty!

Wang Jiyue said something in her heart for this younger brother who is not bad but is too playful, of course he is not too dirty.I don't even look at the kind of guy that the Wang family married.

"Why don't you even dare to say something so important?" Wang Haopeng hesitated for a long time, but he still didn't say it. "Our family is not a famous aristocrat. What kind of trouble can a playboy cause, which scares your brother who has been born and died so that you dare not say it?" Are the young masters hanging out? One of them is Xu Mingzhi’s son, Xu Dexian. I heard from people in the Chinese community that Xu Dexian and Xu Dexian got together recently. I rented a house in the British Concession and hired an Ah from Chongming. Mom." Wang Haopeng stared upstairs, and Wang Jiyue was also taken aback immediately, "Anyway, I haven't heard anything too detailed, so I can't tell whether it's true or not. The rumor is that Haoxiu introduced her I gave it to Xu Dexian. That's why I asked, "Stop talking about it. You're rotten in your stomach. Now is not the time to talk about it. If you know something, just tell me. Don't tell others." Wang Haopeng nodded head. "Don't worry. But, sister," "Why?" "You're getting more and more talkative, can't you make fun of Miss Jiang all day long?"

The two laughed together again.It's good to have a close brother who grew up together, Wang Jiyue thought.But thinking about it this way, according to what Jiang Xijie said, wouldn't it mean that she was being teased to death by her, purely to avoid?Wasn't she the bad sister who scolded her younger brother to death all day long in Tianjin?

Maybe the you in front of me and you in others are completely different people.I thought I knew you well, but I don't, don't I?Maybe you are not far from me at this moment, doing something that I don't understand at all and has nothing to do with me. In fact, we don't have the close connection we once thought.People who look very tight are actually just spider silk, which will be covered with dust over time, and will shatter if touched over time.

"Sister, what are you thinking, so preoccupied?"

Before Wang Jiyue could answer, someone knocked on the door suddenly.Pu Ou went to open the door, but outside the door was Jiang Xijie who came to send wedding invitations. "Ah, Haopeng. I didn't even come to see you when you came back." "Hi sister Jiang, blame me, blame me, I'm lazy." "Hey, I'm busy too," Jiang Xijie said as she walked in, "You see, your sister is tired of seeing me, and I ran too hard a while ago. Come on, this is a wedding invitation, and I will personally deliver it." As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Jiyue,

Fortunately, I smiled and looked at myself.It seems that I haven't seen him for a few days, but it still has a positive effect.

"Have I bothered you to deliver it yourself? Are you so busy?" "Of course you are busy." Wang Jiyue sat Jiang Xijie down and handed her a glass of milk with ice cubes. "But you are different. Your family is a distinguished guest." , of course I want to come and deliver it myself.” “It’s mid-morning, have you had breakfast yet?” “I went out after eating. I got up early in the morning to look at the family’s dresses, and after I made sure there was no problem, I went to buy things like this, The second brother doesn't care about anything." "The groom doesn't care?" Jiang Xijie took a sip, and the cold milk made her relax in the sweltering heat of the morning, and she nuzzled, "Ask Hao Peng. I don't even know why they came back. How busy you are, you can't even catch a shadow. Apart from going shopping and looking at clothes with Sister Yuanying, I don't care about other things."

"But you, a new woman in the new era, of course can handle it. You have to do things that you were not allowed to do before, and you have to do things that men did before." Wang Jiyue looked at Jiang Xijie with a playful smile on the corner of her mouth, and got her wish in exchange. A deflated expression, "Yes, yes, Jiang Xijie in the new era will be willing to be a bull and a horse when her brother gets married. Hey, but, what are you going to wear to the wedding?" "I don't know yet. Why? Is there any other request?" "That's not true, I just want to wear what you wear." "Why bother. Everyone else wants to be the same, but you still have to compare with me, don't you? "No, it doesn't mean that they have to be exactly the same, just similar. For example, if you wear..."

Wang Haopeng couldn't get in a word, and watched curiously and intently at his older sister showing a rare domineering side, and Jiang Xijie's even rarer docile side.
