Literary Heroes of the Republic of China

Father Sheng came prepared.

At the gate of the brothel, there was a middle-aged man who was about the same age as Father Sheng was waiting. When he saw Father Sheng coming, he said a few words to the gatekeeper, and the gatekeeper opened the door to let Father Sheng and Mu Qiong in. After a while, another old woman who might be the madam came out of the house.

Probably because she just got up, she didn't have any makeup on, and she was wearing a thin shirt casually, she looked no different from the aunt outside.

Loose skin, deep bags under the eyes and thinning hair also make her look particularly lethargic.

After she came out, she smiled flatteringly at Father Sheng and those who were waiting for him: "Master Zhou, Master Sheng, Young Master Sheng is upstairs in Meixiang Pavilion."

Master Zhou was very familiar with this place, he led the way, and they soon arrived at the so-called Meixiang Pavilion.

The door of the house was closed, and the bolt was inserted from the inside. Mu Qiong thought they would knock on the door, but Master Zhou kicked the door unexpectedly.

And this door, it's not very secure, Mr. Zhou kicked it down, and it was kicked open, as if waiting for someone to kick at any time.

Mu Qiong: "..."

As soon as the door was kicked open, the scene inside was revealed in front of Mu Qiong.

This Meixiang Pavilion is just a bedroom, and when you enter the door, you will find a big bed - and Sheng Chaohui is lying on the bed with a woman in disheveled clothes.

It can't even be described as disheveled, these two people have no clothes at all, after all, it is the hottest summer now.

Hearing the loud sound of the door opening, Sheng Chaohui got up from the bed suddenly, stumbled and even fell off the bed, but the woman didn't care, and even winked at Mu Qiong.

Mu Qiong quickly looked away.

This woman is extremely beautiful, even with just one glance, Mu Qiong can tell that she has an excellent figure.If this is the Prime Minister of Huaguo whom Sheng Chaohui has boasted over and over again, Mu Qiong can understand why Sheng Chaohui likes her.

It's just that this scene is really embarrassing.

Of course, the most embarrassing person right now is definitely not him, but Sheng Chaohui.

"Father..." He exclaimed, and quickly grabbed the clothes and put them on.

"Take him away." Father Sheng said, and after he finished speaking, the servants of the Sheng family he brought rushed up, grabbed Sheng Chaohui and walked downstairs.

There was quite a commotion here, when Mu Qiong went downstairs, Mu Qiong noticed that many men and women came out of the house to watch the commotion.

Of course, generally speaking, there are still more women than men - some men who stayed here have shame and don't come out.

And the dresses of these women are cooler than the last.

When he was in modern times, he had seen some things more or less, but they were all through text and video, and this was the first time he saw a real person today.

Surprisingly, he didn't have the feeling of feasting his eyes. Instead, he didn't want to look at it at all, and at the same time felt quite sad.

These women are actually no different from commodities.

The vast majority of them are definitely not willing to make this product at the beginning, but the world forces them to become a product.

Sheng Chaohui was tied into the carriage, Father Sheng bid farewell to Mr. Zhou, followed him into the carriage, and Mu Qiong also walked up.

Sheng Chaohui was afraid that he had never been treated like this in his life. He blushed, surprised and angry: "Father, what are you trying to do!" Treat you as a friend!"

Sheng Chaohui's eyes were full of anger, Mu Qiong couldn't tell what it was like seeing him like this.

"Today's matter has nothing to do with Mr. Mu. I brought him here and asked him to be a witness." Father Sheng looked at Sheng Chaohui and said coldly.

"What testimony?" Sheng Zhaohui was taken aback.

"I want to separate you from the Sheng family." Father Sheng said.

Sheng Chaohui was startled: "Father, what did you say?"

"What did I say?" Father Sheng looked at Sheng Chaohui: "Tell me the truth, have you been smoking opium?"

Sheng Chaohui's expression froze.

Father Sheng took a deep breath: "I thought you were just fascinated by that woman, but I didn't expect you to do such a thing!"

Sheng Chaohui was ashamed, and Father Sheng said again: "There are too many things that smoking opium has harmed the family. I can't keep you in the Sheng family. From today, you will be separated from the Sheng family and live alone!"

"I was wrong about this matter. But how could it harm the whole family?" Sheng Chaohui said hastily.

In fact, he also knew that he had done something wrong, felt very guilty, and thought about quitting, but he really couldn't change it, couldn't help it.

Even because of a guilty conscience, he dared not go home recently, did not dare to stay in the editorial department of the Education Monthly, and became more and more addicted to women and opium.

However, even though he knew he was wrong, Sheng Chaohui didn't feel that he would harm the whole family at all.

You can buy a box of opium cigarettes for a few cents. It is true that many people from ordinary families are impoverished because of smoking opium. Understand.

On the contrary, people often argue over the question of which is better, Yunnan tobacco or Indian tobacco.

"Can a person who has no opium and can't clear his mind take over the family's business? What can he accomplish?" Father Sheng said, "I said a long time ago that this kind of thing cannot happen in our family. Since you smoke If you smoke, you have to get out of the house."

Sheng Chaohui was already panicking at this time, but Father Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "This is not a serious separation, but to kick you out of the family! I will only give you a house, and I won't give you a copper coin." , your future days...you can do it for yourself!"

"Father!" Sheng Chaohui was frightened.

Father Sheng said again: "After all, I am a father. I will save some face for you. I will not tell you about it. If you want to go home, you can come back. But if you can't use the money in the family, I will tell you." Your mother, don't allow her to give you money."

The carriage went straight to a house near Ping'an Middle School. Father Sheng gave the deed to Sheng Chaohui, and took out a separation contract, forcing Sheng Chaohui to sign it.

If Sheng Chaohui was still angry when he was dragged out of the brothel by Sheng's father at the beginning, but at this moment, he has no time to complain, only fear.

He looked at the empty house given to him by Sheng's father, and couldn't react for a while.

Father Sheng leaves soon after, but Moo-joon stays.

He needs to stare at Sheng Chaohui and appease Sheng Chaohui.

The series of things that Sheng's father did seemed heartless, but they were actually for Sheng Chaohui's benefit, and before the carriage, he had already talked to Mu Qiong and expressed his thoughts.

Sheng's father tied Sheng Chaohui out of the brothel in public, because he was sure that Sheng Chaohui wanted to save face.

After losing such a big face, in a short time, Sheng Chaohui would definitely have no face to go to the brothel again.

As for the "separation" later... Father Sheng was just putting on a show, but he didn't really want to drive Sheng Chaohui out of the house.

Mu Qiong also asked specifically at that time, wondering why Sheng's father made such a big circle - even if he didn't bother with these things, Sheng's father could force Sheng Chaohui to quit smoking without giving money to Sheng Chaohui.

Sheng Chaohui's nature is not bad, so he is not unwilling to quit smoking.

Sheng's father sighed, saying that at home, Sheng Chaohui would definitely not be able to quit smoking.

Sheng Chaohui was the most likable junior at home, let alone Sheng's mother, even Sheng's grandma and Mrs. Sheng also liked Sheng Chaohui the most. When these people saw Sheng Chaohui addicted to smoking, they might secretly spend money to buy opium cigarettes for him. him.

Even he himself may not be able to watch his son suffer.

Moreover, there are countless people who have quit smoking and started smoking again. Sheng Chaohui is not a person with strong willpower.

That being the case, it is better to use a strong medicine.

In this way, Sheng Chaohui might be able to mature a bit.

As for why Mu Qiong was brought in, it was to let Mu Qiong persuade Sheng Chaohui, try to help Sheng Chaohui quit smoking, and then inform them of Sheng Chaohui's situation in the future.

In addition, Education Monthly also has money. If Mu Qiong doesn't care about it, Sheng Chaohui will never be able to quit smoking if he has money.

Mu Qiong agreed to Father Sheng's request.

Now, it was up to him to face Sheng Chaohui.

"Not long after I arrived at the editorial department of Education Monthly today, I was called by my uncle." Mu Qiong said, "Why did you start smoking?!"

"Everyone said that the thing made me feel ecstatic, so I tried it..." Sheng Chaohui was full of annoyance.

"We talked about opium before. You clearly know that it is a harmful thing, so why try it?" Mu Qiong said.

Sheng Chaohui's face was full of annoyance: "I was also deceived by lard."

Sheng Chaohui himself couldn't say why, he just remembered that everyone was having a good time at that time, and others brought out big cigarettes to cheer up the fun, so he tried it.

He actually tried it once and didn't want to try it again, but then he saw that everyone around him smoked, so he had the second and third times.

He was still thinking at the time, this thing is not expensive, and it doesn't matter if it is pumped.

Of course, in the end, he also thought about quitting, but he couldn't quit...

Mu Qiong: "..."

When Mu Qiong didn't know what to say, Sheng Chaohui yawned, tears streaming down his eyes.

"I'm addicted to cigarettes." Sheng Chaohui said.

"If you want to quit smoking, just bear with it." Mu Qiong said.

But Sheng Chaohui said: "I'm not in a hurry to quit smoking right now, I..."

Mu Qiong ignored him, went out directly, and locked the door with a lock.

Sheng Chaohui quickly climbed out of the window: "Mu Qiong..."

"You have no money with you," Mu Qiong said.

Sheng Chaohui really didn't have any money on him. When he was brought back, he was not completely dressed.

And there is no money in this house, and there is no furniture here.

"Also, you dare to go out dressed like this?" Mu Qiong asked again.

Sheng Chaohui is wearing only a thin coat right now...

Sheng Chaohui just climbed back into the room through the window.

Sheng Chaohui hadn't been smoking opium for a long time, and the opium at that time was not high in purity. His first addiction to smoking was not serious, and he got over it quickly.

But there is still a long way to go.

At the same time, Mu Qiong was also a little worried.

The previous trip to the brothel... He suddenly realized that he didn't seem to be interested in women.
