Zili replied: "My father divided the family property and left some gold bars and antiques for me, and put them with my mother."

Shen Yuezhi frowned and said: "When the old man is old, he will make a lot of money to distribute the family property to the children. Before you arrived in Fengtian, my father had already distributed the money to us. The fear is that accidents will happen." He now has many Gold bars, and holding the deed of the Peking courtyard, even if you don't lead soldiers in the future, you can still rely on your savings as capital.The military pay he and Fulai received was enough for expenses, and there was still a balance every month, so he wasn't very worried about his future livelihood.

Fulai was still very disturbed, turned over several times, but still didn't feel sleepy.

"Don't think about it, go to sleep, don't you have to go to prison to see your brother tomorrow?" He hugged Fulai tightly, and said tenderly.

Then the child's mother raised her head and said: "I'm really afraid that my father will disappear one day... Although he took me back to Tong's house when I was 20 years old, I don't blame him for a long time now, I just hope he can Live a long and healthy life, and stop worrying about public affairs and family affairs."

"There will be a day for everyone, and we are the same. Uncle is still in good health, and he will surely live a long life. Don't worry." Although he said this, he was also a little worried. Old man Tong is usually busy with military affairs, so he doesn't pay attention to rest. , In the past two years, he has aged rapidly, and his hair is almost all white.In comparison, my father is younger. Now that my father is out of the field, he doesn't care about military affairs, and he is taking care of himself. His physical condition is better than when he was in the army.

Fulai stopped talking when he heard this. Children must hope that their parents can accompany them for the rest of their lives, but this is everyone's extravagant wish.

At noon the next day, Fulai went to the prison alone to visit Tong Rongfei.With Tong Xiaocheng clearing up the relationship, Master Tong's life is not too bad, at least he didn't suffer any crimes, and he still dressed cleanly.

He sat in front of the barred window and said with a wry smile, "I didn't expect you to come to see me." They hardly had any contact with each other on weekdays, and he always looked down on Fulai, but now he could only ask his younger brother to take care of Xiaoluan and his daughter Ningning.

Tong Fulai said calmly: "Brother, we may have misunderstood a little before, but we are a family, and we naturally help each other when we have difficulties."

Tong Rongfei lowered his head and smiled: "Fulai, you have a good heart. I'm already like this, and I won't be able to talk about my future in the future. Your sister-in-law wants to divorce me. I admit it, but what I worry about most is my mother and my wife." Xiaoluan, Ningning, I hope you can go and visit them when you have time, I'm afraid I will stay in prison for a few years." He regretted the past, he couldn't resist the temptation in front of money.

"I'll go there every month, don't worry." Fulai said, the elder brother is like a defeated rooster, dejected, but his father said that the experience of "going to prison" may make the elder brother learn a lot.

"Well, I know you are a man of faith. My father is not in good health now. He should go home and rest earlier. He may not listen to what we say. Father trusts you very much, so you should persuade him too. "For his sake, my father had to worry a lot about clearing up the relationship. The most important thing was that he was so angry with himself. He was already in his thirties, and he still lived under the big tree of his father, but he hadn't done anything beneficial to him. With regard to the Tong family, he is an unfilial son!

Seeing his elder brother's worried look, Fulai quickly comforted him: "My thoughts are the same as elder brother's. I also want my father to rest early. The political situation is complicated. He is old and shouldn't worry about it anymore."

Rong Fei nodded: "My mother has a stroke and can only lie on the bed and be waited on. She doesn't feel at ease when she doesn't see her father. Our father is always on business trips. Although my mother doesn't say anything, she still hopes that my father will accompany her."

"Well, if my father is not busy, he will go home to live, and my aunt will also go to take care of me." Foreign Fulai always calls her mother an aunt, but at home she still calls her mother.

"Thanks to my aunt for taking care of me during this period... You have to take good care of Xiaoluan. It is not easy for her to pull Ningning alone. I am afraid that her orphan and widow will be bullied. Wang Yue is about to be released. She may not Be safe." It's really unfair that his troubles should be borne by his younger sister.

Fu Lai frowned and thought for a moment when he heard what his elder brother said, and then said, "Let me find two bodyguards for the family. When my sister goes out, let the bodyguards follow. Someone guards the house every day, so we can rest assured."

Tong Rongfei nodded quickly: "Okay, I will do as you said. You are an officer and you will definitely be able to pick the right candidate." He regretted that he didn't treat his brother better and "kidnapped" Tianyu. Fortunately, he didn't cause any harm to the child. Otherwise, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

A week later, Tong Rongfei's verdict came out, and he would be released after three years. Although three years is not long, it made the Tong family worse.

The news spread like wildfire, and finally reached Ms. Tong Guijuan's ears. Her frail body couldn't bear the shock. She fainted several times and couldn't breathe. Immediately, her daughter and husband were sent to the hospital.But she didn't last long, and died in physical and mental suffering. She didn't tell anyone about her children's scandals until she died. This is the last bit of maternal love she gave to her children, right?

The funeral was organized by Tong Chunyan, Fulai and Shen Yuezhi with the help of old man Tong. Rong Fei, who was supposed to carry the coffin, couldn't see his mother for the last time because he was in prison, so he asked Fulai and other relatives of her natal family to do it for her.After the first seven days, Mrs. Tong's body was sent back to the western suburbs of Beiping for burial, where several generations of Tong Jia's ancestors were buried, and the old lady would rest here after a hundred years.

The Spring Festival was just around the corner, and after the New Year, Tong Xiaocheng gradually came out of the pain.In order not to think about the sad things again, he simply took his daughter and granddaughter to move to his younger sister, and sold the small three-story mansion for gold bars. Under the persuasion of Fulai and Chunyan, he also thought of disarming and returning to the farmland. He has been working hard for many years and has not yet achieved the final result. He is still not reconciled, and once he is no longer in position, he will not be able to facilitate the children. Judging from the current situation, he really cannot leave for the time being.

On the other hand, because of repeated invitations from the Shanghai Opera Garden, Boss Wu took the troupe to Peiping and took the train to Paris in the East, where they began a two-month resident performance.

Major Shen and Fulai came to Shanghai to cheer for their friends on a half-month vacation. Yuezhi made a cameo appearance in "Legend of the White Snake", and "Worshiping the Moon Pavilion" has already shown his support.Coke in theaters is in full bloom, and reporters come to interview in an endless stream. In the era of wars, people need more spiritual comfort. Therefore, Peking Opera has become the most important entertainment and leisure activity for the people. Whether they really like it or not, everyone will watch it. In the last few plays, the popularity of Peking Opera red actors at that time was no less than that of movie stars and singers. Wherever they went, a large number of fans would pay attention to them. What's more, they would run around chasing their idols. Now a "hardcore fan".

Wu Biling met quite a few movie fans like this. This was probably due to too many rotten relationships in his life. Not only were there too many rotten relationships, but he also had a lot of social engagements.In the evening, in order to establish a good relationship with the local merchants, he hosted a banquet in a Suzhou Tangzi (brothel) in Huile, because the environment here is famous for its elegant environment and beautiful girls.Many politicians and businessmen would invite friends to come here to discuss business matters. After discussing matters, they would drink flowers and wine and have fun. Therefore, the entertainment venue is not a vulgar place in general, but a high-end brothel is a place for dignitaries and dignitaries. , the social occasions where literati and scholars come one after another, if you don’t come here, you can’t even think about getting in touch with famous people.

Biling met his wife when he met his wife

Although Wu Biling loves men, he occasionally goes to the "Qingyin Small Class" for entertainment, so he is familiar with the way in the kiln, and he is very good at chatting and joking with girls.

He was busy toasting the guests, and said with a smile: "This time I came to Shanghai, thank you for your support, I will do it first as a respect!"

"Dear guests, Miss Yuehe is here." The old bustard led a slim beauty in a green cheongsam into the door, and sat down in front of the screen in front of the guests.

"Yuehe, I haven't seen you for a long time!" A fat middle-aged man said with an unscrupulous smile, this woman is like a ripe peach, people will never forget it after tasting it, if it wasn't for too many patrons , he still wants to kiss Fangze again.

The woman named Yuehe smiled affectionately, and when she turned her head slightly, she saw Wu Biling, the red corner of the Liyuan, the smile on her face disappeared immediately, and she hurriedly lowered her eyes.

Boss Wu got up to toast with several members of the Green Gang, and casually glanced at the girl who came in. Although the girl lowered her head and couldn't see her face clearly, judging from her dignified sitting posture, she should be a literate woman. Compared with Beiping, the quality and talents of prostitutes in Shanghai are superior.

"Yue He, Boss Wu is new to your hall, so he must be good at singing, why don't you come to Duan Su Sanqi to explain?" The middle-aged man knows that she can sing Peking Opera, and she has a bit of charm.

"I'm so happy today. What do you want to sing Su San? If you want to listen to the play, you have to listen to Boss Wu." Yue He said softly. Still shaking.

"That's right, Yuehe, you can come here for a while." A wealthy businessman who often comes here relieved her.

She sat upright, pulled up her four beards, and sang "Looking for Lover" in the lively Tianjin time tune:

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, the beautiful woman sits alone in front of the flowers, and the promised person will come soon.Instruct the servant girl to prepare four taels of wine and four dishes...

Although it is not as elegant as Peking Opera, it is very suitable for this kind of social gathering place. The lyrics reveal the joy of the people in Tianjin.
