Angel

Sheng Guogang's younger brother still couldn't make it to the day of victory.

Sheng Guogang stayed in the hospital day and night, but within a few days, he was so thin that he lost his shape.When Tang Anqi rushed to the hospital to visit, she saw a thin and rickety old man for the first time, but she didn't recognize that it was Sheng Guogang at all.

Sheng Guogang refused to leave the ward, and sat in front of the bed from morning till night, staring straight at his younger brother, with tears in his eyes, unable to do anything.Tang Anqi was enthusiastic enough, so she took care of the rest of the chores, and went out every day to order coffins and shrouds—even if she didn't need it, it would be good to "make a rush".

On the day he got back the shroud, he ran to the Central Hospital to look for Sheng Guogang, wanting him to come and see it again.However, as soon as he opened the door and entered the ward, he saw Sheng Guogang sitting on the edge of the bed hugging his younger brother, tears streaming down his face.

He stopped immediately, knowing in his heart that this was not good.

Sheng Guogang lowered his head, hugged his younger brother's upper body in his arms, and asked with a choked voice, "Youtang, what else do you have to say? Tell me, I will remember it all my life."

His younger brother was pale and frail like a delicate paper man. Although his eyes were open, his gaze was scattered, as if he was looking at a very distant place.After taking two breaths slowly, he closed his eyes, and replied vaguely like a sigh: "I... have nothing... nothing to say..."

An hour later, his brother died without a sound.

Sheng Guogang cried so loudly that he slipped from the bed to under the bed, turning into a pile of mud that couldn't be helped.Tang Anqi rushed forward, first laid his younger brother on the bed smoothly, and then bent down to help Sheng Guogang.Sheng Guogang has lost weight, but his bones are still there, as heavy as an iron man.Suddenly he cried out and didn't take it back, he held his breath and passed out.

Tang Anqi was sweating profusely, and pressed him to death: "Lao Sheng, Lao Sheng, cheer up! People are lying on the bed without wiping or washing. If you don't hurry up, you will be hard!"

Sheng Guogang woke up leisurely and stood up several times, but his legs shook so badly that he couldn't stand up.As soon as he fell to the ground, he stretched out his hands and kicked his legs, still crying.Tang Anqi didn't have the strength to manipulate him anymore, so she got up and went out to ask for clean water, soaked a towel and wiped the younger brother's head, face, and bare hands and feet.

In fact, Tang Anqi didn't quite understand the next etiquette steps, and could only be busy with common sense.He brought over the bag at the door. Seeing that Sheng Guogang was still crying on the ground and refused to get up, he hurriedly stepped forward and kicked him: "Lao Sheng, this is not the time for you to cry! This clothes can only be changed by two people. , How can I have so much strength alone!"

Sheng Guogang tried to get up with a pale face, but just halfway through the stand, his knees softened, and he knelt down again with a thud.

Although Tang Anqi is shrewd, she has no experience in this field, and she cares about life and death.As a result, the living one crawled on the ground and became a dead worm, while the dead one soon became cold and stiff.

He had never seen a relative Sheng Guogang who could make trouble so much, tearing out the shroud while cursing angrily.After a lot of busy work, he finally dressed up Sheng Guogang's younger brother, and combed Sheng Guogang's hair with a comb.

He really didn't know what to do next.

Tang Anqi called Sheng Guogang's friends for help.The long-haired Boss Dai arrived first with a few entourages. After entering the door, he began to direct the entourage, first pulling Sheng Guogang up from the ground.

Boss Dai seems to be a know-it-all, he understands everything, and he speaks and does things categorically and neatly.Tang Anqi let go of the heavy burden, and saw Sheng Guogang crying heartbreakingly, so she felt sympathy, and shed a few tears.

He didn't return to his home in the city until late at night.

Dai Limin didn't sleep and left the door open for him.Seeing him back, Dai Limin sniffled and suddenly asked, "Did you take a bath?"

Tang Anqi agreed, then stood on the ground and began to unbutton and unbutton her clothes: "Little boy, bring me a pair of underpants. I went to the hospital today, and this clothes will have to be washed well tomorrow."

He took off his clothes neatly, jumped onto the bed naked, put on his underpants and got into bed: "Lao Sheng's brother is really dead this time, I have to get up early tomorrow to help Sheng's house. Lao Sheng is a man!" , Today is really pitiful and exasperating. You can say that there are people in his family, but there is no one else in the family, and he still cries endlessly—this is the time for him to cry? "

Dai Limin was very happy to find that Tang Anqi hadn't mentioned the matter of buying and selling gold these days.After turning off the light and going to bed, he groped to put Tang Anqi in his arms: "Do you want me to go with you tomorrow?"

Tang Anqi yawned wearily: "Go, it's also good to hold a personal show."

In the next few days, Tang Anqi and Dai Limin mingled in the Sheng Mansion, and because they couldn't do anything else, they only cared about Sheng Guogang.

Sheng Guogang was as thin as a skeleton, crying every day when he opened his eyes.He didn't allow anyone to clean up the relics left by his younger brother, so he left them as they were.His friends were so busy with him that they didn't touch the ground, but he sat blankly on a white swing in the yard, with red eyes for most of the day, other than getting in the way, he had no other purpose.

Seeing that Sheng Guogang had such deep feelings for his younger brother, Tang Anqi sighed, thinking that Sheng Guogang would be able to get out of the shadows after suffering such a painful blow.

However, when he saw the other party after two months, he was surprised to find that Sheng Guogang had regained his former demeanor and gained weight.

Seeing Sheng Guogang's appearance, Tang Anqi felt very relieved: "Brother Sheng, how are you doing?"

Sheng Guogang replied with a happy face: "It's okay, but I'm very busy. You lent me 2000 million last time, and I don't have the cash to pay you back now. How about giving you 250 taels of gold reserve coupons?"

Tang Anqi smiled and said, "That's great! I originally wanted to buy some gold for fun, but this will save me trouble!"

Sheng Guogang said again: "Seeing that we are sure to win, what do you think in the future? Go back to Tianjin or what?"

Tang Anqi had no idea, so she asked instead, "What about you?"

Sheng Guogang sat on a sofa chair, crossed Erlang's legs and kept shaking his feet: "I don't plan to go back. I'm a bachelor. What are you going to do when you go back? Brother, let me tell you, victory is victory, and it may not mean that we will never fight again! Wait until Japan The devil is really finished, I will either go to Hong Kong, or go to Nanyang - I am familiar with these routes, and Lao Dai will help me."

At this point, he lit himself a cigarette.Taking a deep breath and exhaling two streams of green smoke from his nostrils, he continued with a half-smile, "I'll make another fortune while the opportunity is right now. I'll be a rich man in the future, and I'll have a leisurely and happy two days. "

Tang Anqi laughed: "What is a rich man? Don't you have enough money?"

Sheng Guogang lowered his eyes, and flicked the soot on the ground: "My property, it's okay to eat and drink enough, but it's not enough to eat, drink and have fun!"

Tang Anqi has already passed the period of gold frenzy, and this time she got the reserve certificates and went to the bank to sell them all.But within a few days of this, the Ministry of Finance suddenly changed its policy, and the gold reserve can only be cashed out at a [-]% discount.Tang Anqi broke out in a cold sweat after hearing the news.I thought that if Lizi hadn't stopped me back then, all my current property would have to be discounted by [-]%!

Then he thought of Sheng Guogang again——Sheng Guogang had lost a lot of money.

Dai Limin has made a great contribution, so he is naturally complacent and triumphant.After a while like this, the two of them were very leisurely that night, so they went out together to find Wu Yaozu, and the three of them went to the restaurant together for the belated celebration.

The dishes in this restaurant are very good, everything is fragrant and spicy, which suits Tang Anqi's taste.The three of them were sitting in the private room on the second floor. Because they were all familiar with each other, they were not polite. They ate and drank freely, while talking about how a certain person lost tens of millions, and that a certain person owed a whole lot of debt. In the end, they couldn't help but secretly rejoice in their hearts.

Just when I was happy, there was a burst of tinkling gongs and drums outside the window.Tang Anqi got up and pushed open the window to look down, and saw many men and women running out of the street at some point, and they gathered in crowds to run on the street ahead.

Tang Anqi was taken aback, thinking that another air raid was coming. At this time, a young man on the street raised his head and met his eyes. The young man shouted with joy, "The Japanese surrendered unconditionally!"

As soon as the words fell, the sound of roaring firecrackers swept across, shaking the world like a tide.

Tang Anqi turned around to face Dai Limin and Wu Yaozu in a daze, and said expressionlessly, "That...the Japanese surrendered unconditionally."

After saying this, he suddenly realized and yelled in ecstasy; while Dai Limin blinked his eyes in a daze, Wu Yaozu stood up abruptly, his face flushed instantly.

Tang Anqi, Dai Limin and Wu Yaozu ran on the street all night.

All the streets in Chongqing were in full swing, ordinary people and American soldiers huddled together, and there were carnival scenes of singing and dancing everywhere.The three of Tang Anqi and his party involuntarily separated. Tang Anqi had no intention of looking for a partner, and ran with the others on his own—he was still a child at heart, and loved to laugh and make trouble more than anyone else.Laughing and making noises, he suddenly thought of Sun Baoshan, Xiao Maozi, and many officers and soldiers whom he either knew or was familiar with.

Tears flowed down, and he didn't know whether he was crying or laughing.

Now that the Anti-Japanese War has been won, the people from all over Sichuan who entered Sichuan during the Anti-Japanese War naturally began to plan to return to their hometowns.

Sheng Guogang lost nearly half of his property in the gold business, but he was not dying.He is enthusiastically planning to go to Hong Kong or Malaya to find ways to make money again.Wu Yaozu found another house in Chongqing to live in, and decided to wait and see the situation, or stay, or continue to go south; in short, he will never return to the north.

Tang Anqi settled all the business in hand, sold the truck, and returned the warehouse, and became a relaxed and unrestrained wealthy idler.According to his mind, he followed Sheng Guogang to the south, and he was idle anyway.But Dai Limin has a different opinion - he wants to go back to his hometown.

Dai Limin is not suffering from homesickness, he is not so sentimental.He secretly thought of Tang Anqi's son.

Perhaps it was because he was middle-aged, but he found that he gradually became a bit of a mother-in-law, and he was actually interested in children.Of course, he could find a woman to have a child, but if Tang Anqi was offended by this, it would be very wrong.

So he remembered that An Qi had a child, wouldn't it be great if he could bring that child out?

Dai Limin knew that Tang Anqi had no feelings for his son, so before leaving, he didn't reveal anything, only said that he was homesick.And Tang Anqi bought two direct boat tickets to Nanjing, took Dai Limin on board and left without thinking too much.
