When the nun stood on the sidelines, expressing that the team of Gu Wuji and others won, the Japanese pair stood still, most of them panting with their palms on their knees, and in their eyes was the man in military uniform dunking with one hand screen.

The competition ended quickly, and the five men returned to Gu Jia one after another, most of them with their coats on their arms, and there was endless applause from all around.

Gu Jia's eyes flicked over these five people, and finally trotted over to hug Gu Wuji.

Fourth Master Gu smiled and hugged his brother in a circle, keeping his hand on his waist, but said, "I'm sweaty all over, don't hug me."

The third young master Gu did not dislike Wuji, took out the square scarf that had been accidentally dropped from his pocket, wiped the sweat from Wuji's face, and said, "Can I still dislike you? Wuji, you are really special just now." Awesome, did you hear that there are many female students cheering for you?"

Gu Wuji's eyelashes were glued together by sweat, forming clusters, with drooping eyelids, when he looked at Gu Jia, he was as handsome as ever, with a slightly proud expression, and said, "I didn't hear that, but I just heard you cheering for me, brother."

"Poor mouth!" Gu Jia pinched the tip of Wuji's nose, and almost her whole body was covered in Wuji's arms, and then said to the men, "Everyone has worked hard! Do you want to find a place to take a bath and change your body?" Clothes? By the way, are you thirsty? I asked Chen Fu to buy water, and I'll be right back."

As soon as the words were finished, bodyguards Chen Fu and Chen Xing brothers both came back, and each of them brought a case of soda in glass bottles. These things are very expensive, not to mention a case, even a bottle is not affordable for ordinary people.

Gu Jia has a good complexion, and when he greeted those big soldiers to drink soda, no one refused. They all looked at Gu Jia curiously, and then retreated to their original positions, as if they knew that their group was scary, so they didn't talk to Gu Jia too much. touch.

Master Qiao Jun also took a bottle to drink. When he took it from Gu Jia, he looked at the Coke in his hand and said, "Foreign stuff."

Gu Jia explained: "It's delicious, but it tastes better in summer. Now it's winter, and I can't buy frozen ones, so I can only make do with it."

Master Qiao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, as long as you have it."

After Qiao Wanren opened the bottle cap, he drank up the Coke in two or three sips. He tilted his neck, and the soda water fell into his stomach from the agitated Adam's apple with great impact. He turned his eyes away and discussed with his friends whether to go to the hot spring.

When asked about Qiao Wanren's place, Qiao Shuai looked at his watch and said with a smile, "Sorry, let's go another day. I had a great time playing with you guys today. I have to go home. I haven't been back for a long time. It's time to go back and have a look."

Third Young Master Gu didn't force himself, seeing Qiao Wanren lead the group of soldiers away, he took Wuji's hand and went back to the restaurant to take a shower. The few of them talked and laughed, feeling very happy.

Qiao Wanren had a horse. When he got on the horse, he glanced back at Gu Jia, who seemed to be surrounded by many men. Then he pulled the rein, kicked the horse's belly, and said to the black horse with a red birthmark on its head: "Drive .”

The black horse whistled, raised its front hooves, turned a corner and headed towards Tianzi Road.

Behind the black horse was a row of big-headed soldiers. The big-headed soldiers were divided into two rows, and they suddenly changed from the loose laughing and laughing before, and ran behind Qiao Wanren in an orderly manner.

Qiao Wanren hasn't been back to the capital for about two years. The last time he came back, it was because his eldest brother moved back to the capital and he came to deliver the luggage.

The original Qiao's house was destroyed by foreigners in the early years, so when they moved back two years ago, the Qiao family rented a small mansion, only two floors, which was about the same as a place for the elder brother and his family to live in. up.

The small mansion is near Wangfujing on Tianzi Road. After crossing a street full of maple trees, No. 443 is Qiao's mansion.

He let out a cry, and the black horse stopped immediately. Qiao Wanren turned over and dismounted swiftly, and stepped on a small puddle with his boots. The splashed muddy water splashed out like black pustules that were cruelly trampled by someone.

"Qiao Shuai, shall we go back to the team? Or should we wait for you here?"

It was Adjutant Zhang who was speaking. Adjutant Zhang had been traveling with Qiao Shuai for many years. He was a friend and a confidant, but even so, he hadn't met Qiao Shuai's family a few times, and Qiao Shuai didn't seem to want to go home.

Qiao Wanren stood on the steps, his skin seemed to be breathing heavily after exercising, every pore quietly released heat, making the edges of Qiao Wanren's perfect figure blurred by the heat.

Qiao Shuai said, "Wait here for me, I'll be out in 10 minutes."

After all, Adjutant Zhang saw Qiao Shuai striding in. He looked inside, but he didn't see anyone except an aunt who was sweeping the floor.

"Adjutant Zhang, Qiao Shuai still has family members? I haven't heard of that?" One of the soldiers sat on the side of the street, lit a cigarette and asked, "Didn't you say that all the family members died?"

Adjutant Zhang kicked him over and said, "Shut your mouth, how about Qiao Shuai, you know it's useless."

But another big soldier asked curiously: "Why did Qiao Shuai want to play with those young masters just now?"

Adjutant Zhang and these brothers also have some feelings. They are all people who went to the battlefield together and went to the soil together. Most of them are single, lonely, and the whole family is not worried about eating alone. Adjutant Zhang is willing to speak nicely Explanation: "Who knows, but the third master named Gu Jia is the one who was on the fifth floor of the Peace Hotel yesterday. At that time, someone sent a radio, and after that, people sent the auctioned things over. That scene, tsk tsk, is spectacular! Just the third master earns more in one hour than our annual salary!"

But just such a passage, immediately provoked the big soldiers to discuss, saying that the third young master is so capable, and he doesn't know what kind of business he is in, and some people said that the third young master is beautiful, and maybe the gifts are all "guests" ', anyway, they are all rough people, and they have nothing to say. Adjutant Zhang doesn't bother to argue with these people anymore, he just smokes.

The inside of Qiao Mansion is not much warmer than the outside, but it can be regarded as a hot water bath. The small living room on the first floor is the warmest in the whole public relations, so as soon as Qiao Wanren came back, he handed his coat to Mama Liu, and stepped on the dusty carpet. Walking into the small living room, but before entering, I could hear two women talking and laughing inside.

One has a clear voice, and it can be heard that he often talks, laughs, and makes fun of others. The other doesn't talk much, and mostly just listens. He occasionally opens the chatterbox, but he can't stop it. It seems that he hasn't talked to anyone for a long time. Chat like this.

"Sister-in-law, I'm back." Qiao Wanren walked in and made the two women who were sitting on the small sofa holding hands and talking stop to look at him.

Among them, the fat woman with her hair tied stood up immediately, and said excitedly: "Wan Ren, why are you back? My God, why didn't you tell us in advance? I called a few days ago, didn't I say that I was in Shandong?" ?"

Qiao Wanren showed a smile and said, "I'm back to do some errands, so I'll come and see you. Where's my brother?"

The chubby woman took Qiao Wanren's hand, took a good look, heard this, and immediately said: "Don't worry about your elder brother, he went to the smokehouse again, and he has nothing to do all day long. It was very difficult for someone to invite him a few days ago. As a teacher, he thinks that the ones he teaches are mud-legged children and the salary is low, so he is not willing to go, hey... Speaking of which, come and see this one! Look, who is she?!"

Qiao Wanren looked at Qiao Nianjiao, and said in a flat tone, "Yes, big sister."

Qiao Nianjiao was sitting on the sofa, and she was called 'big sister' as if she was in a dream. She was pushed by a fat woman before she woke up suddenly, and said hesitantly, "This, is this Xiaoxia? Xiaoxia ?”

Qiao Wanren's baby name is Xiaoxia. It is said that when his father was crossing the river, he happened to see him in a wooden basin. There were several river shrimps dancing in the basin. His father took pity on him and brought them back to adopt him. He named him Xiaoxia. shrimp.

Mr. Qiao is a good man with a bodhisattva heart. He has never done anything evil in his life. He has passed the Jinshi examination. His ancestors are all educated and full of scholars. When he picked up Qiao Wanren, he happened to buy a mansion in the capital, so the whole family welcomed Qiao Wanren's arrival.

Qiao Wanren has known since he was a child that he is not a biological child of the Qiao family, but there is no difference. The Qiao family and his wife treat him like their own son. He has a sister who is ten years older than him, and a brother who is six years older than him. The son was very happy, until something happened when he was seven years old-the eldest sister eloped with an opera singer.

"Sister-in-law, since the eldest brother is not here, I will still give you the money. This is one year's living expenses. You can use it as you like. If you run out, tell me. I'll go first." After saying this, he turned around and left. It was true that he came and went in a hurry.

Ms. Qiao looked at Qiao Wanren's back in a daze, sat back on the sofa, and suddenly covered her face and sobbed. It was even more difficult for a fat woman to go out to see off her younger brother, so she stayed and hugged Ms. Qiao to coax her, saying: "Sister , don't cry, the men in the Qiao family are all virtuous, and they still care about you in their hearts, otherwise they won't even look at you."

Ms. Qiao has shed almost a year's worth of tears in the past few days, her eyes were swollen like peaches, and she said, "Wen He, don't lie to me with such words, I know that after I leave, my father and I will be taken away." Mother is so angry, I was so ignorant back then, but now I can see the moon, but I can't find anyone who is filial, my two younger brothers don't recognize me, only you still talk to me..."

Qiao Nianjiao may be too lonely, or it may be that after knowing her parents' death, she suddenly had a conscience other than Gu Wenwu in her heart. This poor conscience drove her to find Qiao's mansion, hoping to be forgiven, or to tell everyone , Her choice was right at the beginning, but now she is doing well, and Gu Wenwu has treated her well these days, seeing that the old man is about to die, after the old man dies, can't he divorce his wife?

Qiao Nianjiao thought that she was going to be the eldest wife of the Gu family soon, and she finally became Gu Wenwu's wife in a justifiable way. Her love has been smooth since then, without any obstacles.

But suddenly looking back, she still felt that she seemed to have lost something more important...

I don't know if I can make up for it now.

She cried for a while, and a little curiosity arose in her heart. She took Wen He's hand and said, "Sister and sister, why did my younger brother become Qiu Ba?"

Wen He smiled bitterly and said: "Didn't the capital fight back then? The whole family fled without bringing much money. He joined the army as a teenager, followed by a warlord who seemed to be surnamed Zhou. Now he works alone, and his size is also a Commander, you are very powerful."

Qiao Nianjiao smiled and said, "This is considered promising. But I see your expression, why are you like this?"

Wen He is an innocent lady who married into Qiao's family when she was very young. She married Qiao Dongshi when she was only 14 years old, so she also enjoyed the glorious days of Qiao's family. , the family became desolate to the naked eye, and soon the parents-in-law and mother-in-law died, and the husband was a noble literati, who refused to do dirty work, so he relied on selling his ancestors to survive. During the years in other places, everyone was very difficult , the younger brother became Qiu Ba because of the Qiao family, but it's hard for Wen He to say these words.

"Hey, the relationship between the two brothers is not very good now. Your younger brother doesn't allow Wan Ren to serve as a soldier, saying that soldiers who serve are low-class people, rough people, and violate the ancestor's precepts, but Wan Ren went anyway. , so the two of them haven't been in touch for many years, and I'm the only one in the middle, trying to be a peacemaker to make peace, but I haven't succeeded." When Wen He said this, he seemed to be thinking of a long, long time ago It's over, she showed a nostalgic and emotional expression, and said, "Sister, you don't know how angry Dongshi and Wanren were when they knew you were kicked out by the Gu family and lived outside, two brothers, one big and one small Blushing with anger, Wan Ren took a kitchen knife and was about to slash at the door, but the father-in-law stopped them, so they didn't go out."

"Sister, don't worry about it now, we are a family after all, and today is New Year's Eve, if you want to come to us for the New Year's Eve, you can come. I will let Wanren go home for the New Year's Eve dinner, and you will bring Xiaojia too. Bring it here, I've always heard you talk about him, but I haven't seen him yet."

"Sister, don't cry, it's all over, this world is so difficult, just go home, father-in-law and mother-in-law are also looking forward to your return, although they don't say it, but I know, they miss you when they die , I hope to see you, now that you are back, they should be relieved."

Qiao Nianjiao's heart was broken. She could almost imagine how her parents couldn't close their eyes when they passed away. They might have been staring at the door, hoping that she would show up in the next second and come back to admit their mistake...

When Qiao Nianjiao left Qiao's mansion, Liu Zhishu, who was in the servant's room, followed immediately. Seeing that Ms. Qiao was out of her mind, she couldn't fart for a long time, but felt very distressed.

Suddenly, Ms. Qiao asked, "Where's civil and military?"

Xiao Liu, who followed Ms. Qiao all the way from Tianjin to the capital, darkened her eyes and said, "Master must have gone to play cards."

Ms. Qiao was walking on the cold street, as if she regarded herself as Mrs. Gu, and when she heard her husband hid out, she was unwilling to go back to the current messy Gu Mansion. I don't know where it came from, and they kept their mouths open to let them move out, saying that the old man sold the house to them, and if they didn't move, they would break in.

Ms. Qiao was scared and slipped away from the back door together with Gu Wenwu, but Ms. Qiao herself planned to go to Qiao's mansion to talk to her younger siblings. Gu Wenwu didn't want to go in, so she said to sit in the teahouse outside. son.

Ms. Qiao was not very happy, but she seemed to be considerate of Gu Wenwu, and said to herself: "Hey, forget it, he has also suffered these days, let's go to him now, take care of it, and go to him Xiao Jia, since the Gu family will not be able to live a safe year this year, then I will come to Qiao's house, which is just right."

Ms. Qiao had her own plans in mind, but she spent a lot of time just looking for Gu Wenwu, and finally planned to go to the Peace Hotel to look for Xiaojia, but she couldn't find anyone, but ran into Young Master Chen who was about to drive away .

Qiao Nianjiao thought that Chen Chuanjia and Xiaojia could wear a pair of underpants if they were in a good relationship, so she walked to the car and asked, "Xiao Chen, have you seen our Xiaojia? She said she lived in room 501, but now she is There's no one to be found anywhere."

Chen Chuanjia was sitting on the back seat of the car. He had half opened the windows for ventilation. When he saw Ms. Qiao, he opened all the windows and said with a smile, "Aunt Qiao, it's unfortunate that you came. Xiaojia was still in the hotel just now. Give Wuji a bath, just as the two of them left, you came."

When Qiao Nianjiao heard the words 'bathe Wuji', she felt very unhappy. She was Xiao Jia's mother after all, and Xiao Jia had never brought her footwashing water, but she was diligent in serving Gu Wuji.

"Oh? Then do you know where they are going?"

Chen Chuanjia shook his head and said: "I'm not sure, I just vaguely heard that Brother Wuji said that he wanted to celebrate the New Year with Xiaojia alone, and the two of them went out to buy New Year's goods and clothes, and probably also went out to eat at night, by the way, Xiaojia Jia likes to set off fireworks every New Year, and you may see them near the gate of the city at twelve o'clock in the evening, there will be a fireworks display there tonight."

When Qiao Nianjiao got the news, she seemed to have nothing. Anyway, her husband was gone, and her son was also abducted by others. She didn't know where to go for a while.

On the other side, as soon as Qiao Nianjiao left, Qiao Dongshi, the second master of the Qiao family, returned home. He saw the big soldier standing at the door, and he knew that the younger brother was back with just one glance. Qiao Dongshi was weak and bookish, but this year After taking the drug, the bones of the body became extremely fragile, and the back became more and more rickety...

Qiao Dongshi returned to the house silently, saw all kinds of gift boxes on the table, picked them up and threw them on the ground outside.

When his wife Wen He saw it, her heart ached so much that she hurried to pick it up and said, "Even if you lose your temper, don't waste a good thing! These are dim sums worth tens of dollars a pack, and there are also snacks from Quanjude. The roast duck sent here is so expensive!"

Qiao Dongshi looked at his wife taking back the things with a very sad expression, but he also knew that the situation at home was not good. If it was before, why would they care about the gift bought with this little money? !

"Hey, don't be so hard on your face. I will make the decision for you. Let the younger brother and the eldest sister come to our house for dinner tonight. Look at our house, how deserted it is in the past years. Ever since our parents left, we will come to our house every year. Two people celebrate the New Year, it's more lively if there are more people..."

Qiao Dongshi and Wen He had no children. Master Qiao and Mrs. Qiao were pregnant with one when they were here, but when the two old people left, Wen He lost the child due to overwork.

Qiao Dongshi always felt that he was useless, which made Wen He so tired, so tired that his children were gone, so sometimes even though he was stubborn, he still listened to Wen He's words.

Seeing that her husband had no objection, Wen He put the gift boxes back on the table, then went out to the door, looked for the big soldier who was left behind by the younger brother, first stuffed him with a red envelope, and then asked, "Master, help me!" Go and tell your boss, just tell him that his elder brother asked him to go home for the New Year's Eve dinner, remember to tell him that the eldest sister's family will also come, and everyone will have a reunion dinner."

Xiao Qiuba didn't dare to accept the red envelope, after all, the commander kept him here just to spread the word?But Wen He insisted on the fortress, and Xiao Qiu Ba couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it, and then ran to the vicinity of the city gate, to the place where one thousand people were stationed.

It takes some time to run from Tianzi Road to the gate of the city, Qiu Ba is not polite, he directly boards a rickshaw and lets the driver take him away, the sooner the better!

But even so, Xiaoqiu Ba didn't arrive at the station at the gate of the city until almost five o'clock. The whole station was so big that it was specially used for the warlord's team to station.

After Xiao Qiuba entered the post station, he didn't find the commander-in-chief. After asking his friends, he found out that the commander-in-chief was called by the commander to be scolded.

This is not a trivial matter. After being scolded, the general will not be in a good mood. Whoever provokes him may just be slapped, and his teeth will fly out.

Xiaoqiu Ba thought, it should be because no good things were dug up in Shandong this time. Originally, good tombs were all in Xi'an, and good things could be found in any hole, but in the end he insisted on holding what is said to be a map of ancient dragon caves. The location is still in Shandong. Recently, Japanese soldiers have been everywhere in the three northeastern provinces. Even if good things are dug up, they may not be able to bring them back.

Anyway, Xiao Qiuba felt that the commander-in-chief would definitely not be in a good mood this time, so he hesitated, wondering if he should rush to the front and talk about what Qiao's sister-in-law said.

When the commander came down from the second floor, Xiao Qiuba still leaned forward, stamped his feet, gave a military salute, and then shouted loudly, "Report to the commander! Your elder brother calls you back!" Eat at home! It is said that your eldest sister’s family is going back, so you have to go!”

Qiao Wanren stood on the half-height wooden stairs, and slapped Xiao Qiu Ba on the head. His voice was indifferent, and he mumbled with a cigarette in his mouth, "What are you shouting for? Am I deaf?!"

Xiaoqiu was only sixteen at the age of eight, and he followed Qiao Wanren's bandit-like team for several times. My legs trembled and I couldn't stand still.

Just when Xiao Qiu Ba thought he was done for, he heard Marshal Qiao reply, "Okay, prepare the car at the door, I want to go out and buy some New Year's gifts first."

Xiao Qiuba couldn't believe that he hadn't been beaten, and stood there stupidly until he was kicked by Adjutant Zhang before he even crawled to prepare the car. The bandits around laughed, Xiao Qiuba looked at these The colleague was arrogant, he spat, raised his fist, and ran out.

Adjutant Zhang has been standing behind Qiao Wanren, seeing that Qiao Wanren is not angry even after being scolded by the commander, and even in a good mood, he feels strange. In the past, this master was scarier than anyone else. Anger is blood!

"Didn't the commander-in-chief always think that Chinese New Year is boring?" Adjutant Zhang asked.

Qiao Wanren threw the cigarette on the ground, stomped out his black thick-soled military boots, and exhaled a wisp of green smoke while casually saying, "This year is quite interesting."

Adjutant Zhang saw that Marshal Qiao was abnormal, but he was still unpredictable, so he didn't bother to think about it.

Marshal Qiao, who was going to buy gifts for the New Year's Eve dinner, didn't let Adjutant Zhang follow him. He gave everyone in the army a day off and went to a foreign goods store by car to pick up gifts.

Xiao Qiu Ba got the order today, and made a special trip to drive the commander. While driving, Xiao Qiu Ba accidentally saw the commander behind him in a daze, but he didn't know what kind of daze he was in.

But if Adjutant Zhang was here, he would definitely be able to guess one or two!

Adjutant Zhang went with the commander in chief yesterday to see the charity auction donations held in the capital. Anyway, he didn't know which idiot chose the address in the back garden of the Peace Hotel, so the commander stood outside to watch the excitement.

It's okay if you don't watch the excitement, but when you look at it, hearing these rich people's actions costing tens of thousands of dollars, Adjutant Zhang can't wait to pick up his gun and tell those rich people not to move and rob them.

Just when Adjutant Zhang was so greedy that he wanted to give the commander a bad idea, he saw the commander staring blankly in another direction, with cigarettes hanging from his lips, as if he was wandering away, but his eyes It's not like being stupid, it's just a kind of obsessive yearning as if seeing tons of gems...

Adjutant Zhang was very curious about what the commander saw, so he followed the commander's line of sight.On the fifth floor of the beautifully decorated Peace Hotel under a layer of snow-white snow, I saw a man standing on the balcony drinking coffee. He also wore a white shawl, his demeanor was cold but extremely attractive, and what was even more frightening was that this man's face was not ordinary, it was his mother's very beautiful!Never forget!

——Isn’t this forcing people to break their sleeves? !
