A sickly bamboo horse dressed as a villain

Although the time limit given by Lin Jiali was only two weeks, Qiao Wen was not in a hurry.As Guan Zhenbao said, the heroine is actually a supporting role. If you can invite a well-known actress who fits the image of the original work, it will be icing on the cake. It doesn't matter if it affects the quality of the movie.

He planned to talk to Lin Jiali after the Chinese New Year. It was impossible to add more dramas, but it would be okay to add a little salary. Troubles that can be solved with money are not troubles.

These few days, let them have a good year.

This is the second New Year since he came to this world, and it is also the first time for the two families to celebrate the New Year outside the walled city.The bustle is certainly not comparable to a crowded slum, but it is better than being quiet and stable, and you don't have to worry about people from the Poison King coming and killing them.

However, although they have moved out, the Walled City is considered their hometown, and they still need to go home to visit often.

At the beginning of the first month of the first lunar month, Chen Jianan carried a stack of red envelopes in his hand, carrying two bags of New Year's gifts with Qiao Wen, and rushed to the city to pay New Year's greetings to Jiang Yufeng and Zhao Asi, and to send new year gifts to his former brothers. Annual interest is.

He is dressed in a suit and looks radiant, a veritable handsome man.

It's just... a bit like a homecoming.

In the past year, under the leadership of Jiang Yufeng, Hexing Club has been undergoing drastic reforms, cutting off more than half of the black industry, but after all, they are making a living on the road, and they have to support thousands of people, gambling stalls, nightclubs, sauna bathing protection Fee, still have to continue, but no longer engage in forced buying and selling - it's a black and white wandering in the gray area.

Chen Jianan brought hundreds of red seees, and when he found Jiang Yufeng, half of them had already been distributed along the way.

Jiang Yufeng was at the entrance of the Lido, talking to a slender dancing girl. Chen Jianan casually handed out a few more red envelopes, and ran over with Qiao Wen: "Brother Feng...Happy New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai! Happy New Year, Brother Feng!"

Jiang Yufeng turned his head to look at the person who came, and said with a smile, "Anan Awen, Happy New Year!"

Chen Jianan handed him the gift he had prepared, and said meanly: "This is for me and Xiao Qiao to honor your old man."

Qiao Wen almost didn't laugh out loud.

And the Fenghuazheng Maojiang, who is known as the old man, twitched the corner of his mouth and glared at him. After receiving the gift, he glanced at the two imported cigarettes inside, bent his lips and smiled, and said, "You two still remember Brother Feng?" , Brother Feng is very satisfied."

"If you forget, no one can forget you, Brother Feng?"

Jiang Yufeng laughed, turned his head to look at the woman opposite, and said softly: "Okay, Jiabao, if you encounter any difficulties after you go out, or if you are bullied, you can still come to me."

It turned out that the person he was talking to just now was Garbo, the top dancer in the Lido.

Qiao Wen only saw her once, and it was the first month of last year. At that time, she was a beautiful, charming and charming leading dancer, the kind that men would weaken their legs when they saw her.However, at this moment, there was no makeup on and her face turned to the sky, so that Jiang Yufeng didn't recognize it without saying anything.

Of course she is still beautiful, but there is no makeup on her face, and there is an extra layer of melancholy, which is completely different from the top dancer before.

She nodded to Chen Jianan and Qiao Wen with a smile, and said to Jiang Yufeng, "Thank you, Brother Feng, for taking care of me. See you later."

Jiang Yufeng nodded.

Jia Bao waved his hand, walked a few steps, and seemed to think of something, turned his head and hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother Feng, if there is news about Brother Fei, can you tell me?"

Jiang Yufeng said: "I'm also looking for him. If there is his whereabouts, I will let you know."

"Thank you, Brother Feng." Jia Bao smiled, looked at Qiao Wen and Chen Jianan again, turned around and left step by step again.

Qiao Wen glanced at the figure from behind, and asked casually, "Has Jiabao left Lido?"

Jiang Yufeng nodded: "I will annul the contracts of prostitution of the Lido girls, and let them choose to stay or stay. I have left a few times last year, but Jiabao has never left. It was not until the New Year yesterday that I found me and said I want to leave." He frowned as he said, "A bastard, A Fei, is obviously not doing anything, yet there is still a girl who can't forget him."

Qiao Wen asked calmly, "Do you have any news about Brother Fei?"

Jiang Yufeng shook his head: "Not yet, I don't know where he went, is he dead or alive?" He sighed, "To be honest, after all, we are brothers for more than ten years. I hope he can come back, but he With that temperament, I think it will turn the world upside down again when I come back, so I don't want him to appear again."

Compared to his entangled and hesitant thoughts towards Qin Yunfei, Chen Jianan was much firmer, he did not forget Qin Yunfei's crooked thoughts towards Qiao Wen, and immediately curled his lips and waved his hands when he heard this: "I think it's better not to come back, because if you come back, you will harm others. "

Qiao Wen suddenly remembered Qin Yunfei's icy ghostly figure at the pier that day.Although he saved himself - back, but he also immediately repaid the favor, which is considered to be indebted.Like Chen Jianan, he did not want this disaster to come back.

He thought for a while and said, "By the way, Brother Feng, I heard that after the establishment of the ICAC, the police will send police forces to the city to clean up gangsters. Be careful at your stalls."

Jiang Yufeng nodded: "Okay, I understand." That's all, and added, "Hurry up and sweep it up, this year we and Xingshe have less contact with drugs, but the other waves of people are doing more and more business. The more outrageous it is. The police quickly swept them all away, otherwise they would become a big cancer in the Walled City."

Qiao Wen smiled: "Brothers in Hexing Club, with Brother Feng around, they will get better and better."

Jiang Yufeng didn't take it seriously: "In our line of business, except for fighting and killing, there is no other way to make money. How can we really follow the white path, or a black path to the end." He said with a cold face, Showing a happy smile, "Fortunately, Anan went out, and your life will get better and better. After all, Brother Feng is happy for you."

Chen Jianan said proudly: "Xiao Qiao and I are going to make a movie. I will be in charge of martial arts. The Chen Family Squad will be formally established soon. If there are brothers with good skills who want to become martial arts teachers, they can come to me." Then he looked up and down—down Jiang Yufeng said with a smile, "Brother Feng, if you're okay, you can also come to our movie to play a cameo as a gangster thug in the future, and perform in your true colors."

Jiang Yufeng laughed: "How can I act in a movie?"

Chen Jianan grabbed Qiao Wen and said, "Little Qiao, do you think Brother Feng can do it?"

Qiao Wen nodded: "I think it's okay. Brother Feng is so handsome, maybe if you show up, you can attract many girls."

Jiang Yufeng was not angry when the two teamed up to make a joke, and chatted for a while before saying goodbye.

Chen Jianan went to look for Zhao Ahsi, but he couldn't find anyone in his lair, so he guessed that he was going to his old friend's place, so he could only leave the presents, distributed red seees to his former brothers, and then left with Qiao Wen.

The two walked through the East District to the West District. When passing by the former tenement building, they both looked up at the same time.There are already new residents there, and bustling sounds can be vaguely heard.

"Little Qiao, do you feel like you're dreaming? I thought I would stay here for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect to go out for a year." Chen Jianan said with emotion.

Not to mention that he grew up here, even Qiao Wen, who has only lived for less than a year, revisiting his old place at this moment has quite mixed feelings.He nodded: "Yes! It's indeed a bit like a dream."

Chen Jianan turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile, "After all, you are capable. By the way, you are so good at making money. Your previous life was pretty good, wasn't it?"

Qiao Wen said: "There is no shortage of money, but I make money here, not because I know how to make money, but because my age is ahead of you, and I know how to make money here."

Chen Jianan: "Really?"

Qiao Wen smiled: "Okay, let's go!"

The two continued to walk forward, and when they were about to leave the city, they suddenly heard a noise coming from the side alley.

The two followed the sound and saw a few children fighting. On one side were the three older children who were slightly taller, and on the other side the child had to be a widow.

This little guy obviously didn't have enough fighting power, but he scratched and bit with all his strength, as if he was desperately trying to fight.Therefore, although he was at a disadvantage, the other three did not take much advantage.

Chen Jianan frowned, and shouted: "What are you doing! How could three older children bully a younger child!"

When several people heard this voice, they turned their heads—it was Chen Jianan, and the three older children called—Brother Nan—and ran away, while the remaining child walked out slowly, disheveled and disheveled.

Chen Jianan gasped and recognized the person: "Ming Zai? Have you been bullied again?"

The child brushed back his hair, revealing a little face that was full of color, and said with a straight neck: "It's a fight, not being bullied!"

Although there were a few fresh scars on that face, and it was as dirty as if it had been rolled in mud, it was still difficult to hide the child's indistinguishable and beautiful facial features.

Chen Jianan smiled: "You've grown up, you dare to fight with others?" He took out a lai see bag and handed it to him, "Go buy fish balls."

"Thank you, Brother Nan."

Chen Jianan asked again: "You are not at home during the New Year's Eve, why - ran out alone?"

The little guy lowered his head, and after a while he muttered in a low voice: "My uncle and aunt quarreled and kicked me out." Then he raised his head and added, "Brother Nan, can you tell Brother Feng to let me I joined the Hexing Society, and I will hang out with him in the future, just give me a bite to eat."

Chen Jianan frowned: "How old are you and you want to join the underworld?" After saying that, he seemed to think of something, and asked, "Your uncle and aunt don't want you anymore?"

No matter how stubborn the expression on his face was, his eyes couldn't deceive anyone.After hearing this question, the child's wide-open dark eyes burst into tears uncontrollably.

Qiao Wen took out a handkerchief and handed it to him, stretched out his hand and smoothed his messy hair with his fingers, and asked Chen Jianan in a low voice: "What's the matter with this kid?"

Chen Jianan said: "You didn't come out much before, maybe you didn't know him. His name is Ming Zai. He was born without a father, and his mother is gone. He was raised by his uncle and aunt, but the uncle and aunt also have children, so they don't care about him at all. Always beat him." As he spoke, he couldn't help interjecting a line of praise for Chen Shu and Aunt Chen, "I also had no mother since I was a child, and my father was on a fishing boat all year round, but my uncle and aunt treated me like my own son. , Hao Zai can let me bully casually."

Qiao Wen: "..." He looked down at the sad-faced child, and felt relieved after making sure that his words didn't cause him double harm.

He had met this child once before, and he was also bullied at that time, but at that time he was allowed to be beaten and kicked by others, only knew how to cry, and didn't dare to resist at all.This time he was still facing the three taller children, not only did he dare to resist, but he didn't even cry. It can be seen that a lot of changes have taken place in this short period of time.He even vaguely saw a viciousness beyond his age on this small face.

If he continued, he guessed that when he grew up, he would be another Qin Yunfei.

He pondered for a moment, then asked, "Ming Tsai, do you want to learn martial arts from Brother Nan?"

Mingzai opened his eyes wide - his misty eyes looked at him suspiciously.

Qiao Wen continued: "Brother Nan opened a martial arts gym, you know about it?"

Mingzai nodded.

Qiao Wen: "Since your uncle and aunt can't support you, you come to Nange Martial Arts Hall, learn martial arts from Brother Nan, and learn how to film, and become a martial arts star in the future."

Chen Jianan opened his eyes wide, as if suddenly enlightened, he held Ming Zai's small face with both hands, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect this, Ming Zai is so good-looking, just suitable for filming."

Qiao Wen said: "That's right. Anyway, when we make movies, we must train our own actors. It's just right to train our own actors from an early age."

Chen Jianan rubbed the head of the little guy with a dazed face: "Okay, Mingzi, you go home and say goodbye to your uncle and aunt, pack your luggage, and say to Brother Feng, let him send you to Ananwu In the future, board and lodging will be there. Although you have to learn martial arts, reading is also very important. After a few days, I will help you find a school to study, study during the day, and practice martial arts after school."

Qiao Wen thought to himself, you guys still know that reading is important?

Mingzi opened his eyes wide, as if a little unbelievable: "Really?"

"Of course it's true. Go and find out. When did Brother Nan ever lie to someone?"

Mingzai said again: "Then Brother Nan will be my master from now on?"

Chen Jianan nodded: "If you want, you can call me Master."

Mingzai seemed to have come to his senses at this moment, he hurriedly knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed three times: "Master, please accept my apprentice's obeisance."

Chen Jianan was quite uncomfortable with his big battle. Although he opened a martial arts gym to accept apprentices, they were students who paid to learn, and they were still different from serious apprentices.

He pulled the child up and said, "Okay, okay, just call Master, and there is no need for these vain rituals."

At this moment, Mingzai finally smiled through his tears, and the sternness on his face was wiped away, and he became a serious and innocent child again.He wiped his eyes with Qiao Wen's handkerchief, and said, "Then I'll go back and tell my uncle that I don't need him to take care of him anymore."

Qiao Wen thought for a while, and said, "You go to Brother Feng first, and tell him that we told you, and let Brother Feng take you to tell your uncle and the others."

"OK, all right."

Seeing the child happily running away, Chen Jianan said: "If you don't tell me, Xiao Qiao, I really didn't expect this. Mingzai is such a good-looking child, if you train him well, he might become a big star in the future!"

Qiao Wen nodded: "But I think this kid is a little crooked, probably he was taught by Qin Yunfei before. He went to your place, you have to take good care of him and straighten him."

Chen Jianan patted his chest: "Of course, he is my apprentice, and I, the master, must teach him well." As he spoke, he was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head, clenched his fists, and said solemnly, "Before When there is no money, there is delicious food at home, and my uncles and aunts let me eat it first, and then give it to Haozai, and I always cause trouble for them. When I go back later, I will help my uncle and aunt with work and drag the land at home ten times. Over and over again, give Haozi a few hundred more pocket money, let him buy fancy magazines, and watch big boobs! And my dad, I want to hand him the feather duster with my own hands, and let him beat me up— pause."

Qiao Wen smiled: "???" That's not necessary.

All right, just know how to be grateful.
