One hundred and fifty-nine. old friend

Mr. Sun's chances of victory are indeed greater, after all, he is the real founder of the Republic of China. According to the history of the Republic of China, on February 4, the results of the re-election of the Senate and the House of Representatives were announced, and the Kuomintang won 392 seats alone, while the three major parties of republic, unity, and democracy combined won only 223 seats, and Soong Jiaoren became the premier. The results were sent to Shanghai along with a letter and a phone call.

The letter was sent by Wu Peifu, and the recipient was Wu Xinyi, but it was written at the address of the Chen family's apartment, as if she knew Wu Xinyi's whereabouts well. ”

Wanlan looked at her in surprise: "I thought you told him." ”

Wu Xinyi was even more surprised than her: "I have nothing to do with him, why do you still have to report your whereabouts to your father?"

After she said this, she suddenly felt uneasy, as if she had insight into Wanlan's thoughts. When she arrived in Shanghai, her father sent the letter to Shanghai, which was like a pair of eyes watching their Xie family's every move.

Wu Xinyi subconsciously wanted to open her mouth to defend herself, but Wanlan didn't give her this chance, she laughed before she could speak, and said, "Maybe he doesn't know, but he just plans to ask me to pass this letter to you." ”

She didn't believe her words, Wu Xinyi could see that these words were just to ease her heart, but they also took away the opportunity for her to explain, so that Wu Xinyi had to accept her kindness.

Wu Xinyi tried to squeeze out a little smile, opened the letter, and wrote a very short note, saying that President Yuan was extremely dissatisfied with the election results, and this news came from Zhao Bingjun, a close confidant of the president.

Wu Xinyi immediately understood that the real recipient of this letter was not her, but Xie Huaichang, and Wu Peifu sent this letter to her, just to let her be the lobbyist.

She sighed softly and handed the letter to Wanlan: "Sister should also take a look." ”

Wanlan took it suspiciously, and when she saw it, her face changed: "The results of the re-election have been released, and what is the result?"

"It must have been the Kuomintang that won. Wu Xinyi said, "The three major parties in Beijing all have a close relationship with the president, if one of these three parties wins the championship, how can the president be dissatisfied with the election results?"

Wanlan said: "Then what does Uncle Wu mean by this?"

Wu Xinyi bit her lip, and quickly considered whether her next words were appropriate in her heart, Wanlan saw through her thoughts, and said, "You can say whatever you want, you don't have to think about words with me." ”

Wu Xinyi smiled at her: "My father is afraid that Huaichang will work against the president." ”

Wanlan's eyebrows jumped: "The president is going to make a move, what is he going to do?"

"I don't know," Wu Xinyi said worriedly, "but what is certain is that Mr. Sun will definitely disagree with what the president is going to do." ”

Wanlan didn't speak, the two were relatively silent for a while, she suddenly picked up the phone, dialed Xie Huai'an, and told him, "Come to the house for dinner at night, I will cook it myself, and call Huaichang as well, no one is allowed to be absent."

Xie Huaichang really wanted to be absent, because "he was busy with extremely important things", Xie Huaian didn't know what was going on, and he took it upon himself to grant him leave, which caused Wanlan to lose his temper and went to the hotel where Xie Huaichang lived to arrest people in person.

Xie Huaichang was drinking coffee with an old friend in the café of the hotel, the old friend was wearing a well-cut suit, his hair was carefully groomed, meticulously combed, and his appearance was quite familiar. In addition, she was still in a hurry to pull Xie Huaichang back, so she didn't have time to think about it, and went directly to the person who lost her company, but that person looked at Wanlan with a strange expression, and a smile gradually appeared on her lips, and she said, "Miss Lan, don't you recognize me?"

This voice is also familiar, Wanlan has gone through it in her mind a few times, and she is sure that in all her friendships, there is indeed no such oriental gentleman.

The man smiled slowly and stood up: "This is really sad, I have been away for several years, but there is no day when I no longer think about the mansion, Miss Lan, I am Xie Cheng." ”

Thank you!

Wanlan was taken aback and looked him up and down again. Sure enough, it is Xie Cheng, he has changed a lot, but there are many things that have not changed, but no matter how much familiarity there is in this person, he is no longer the "Big Brother Xie Cheng" who grew up with her in the Xie family's old mansion.

The look of surprise on Wanlan's face gradually faded, and she became kind and polite, just like her friends in the business field: "Brother Xie Cheng, long time no see." ”

"Long time no see," Xie Cheng smiled at her, "I heard that the eldest lady has married Chen Gongzi." ”

Wanlan smiled and nodded: "It's really grateful that you can still remember these little things." ”

"The matter of the eldest lady is a trivial matter, I also bought a gift for you, but I was trapped by the current situation at the beginning, and I didn't have time to give it away," Xie Cheng said politely, with a polite detachment in his tone, "Since I met it today, let's give it to the eldest lady." ”

As he spoke, he took out a pocket watch wrapped in brown paper and handed it to Wanlan with both hands. Xie Cheng actually carried the gift he was going to give her, which not only surprised Wanlan, but also made her feel embarrassed, and she also took it with both hands, and said, "An old thing, and you are so expensive." ”

Xie Cheng said: "The eldest lady is too polite. ”

Xie Huaichang smiled beside him: "You two are too polite, from the words, why are you still a 'big lady'? ”

"Congyan" is Xie Cheng's word, Wanlan has known him since he was born, and only now does she know that he is from Yan, but she has no intention of arguing with him, she only glanced at Xie Huaichang condescendingly, and said: "Brother Xie Cheng can call it as comfortable as he wants." ”

also deliberately bit the accent on the words "Brother Xie Cheng".

Xie Cheng didn't know if he understood her voice, but he touched his nose very cooperatively, and said: "The eldest lady is used to it, and she really can't change her mouth for a while, so be it, Hengzhi is a family, you don't have to see outside." ”

Wanlan's expression eased a little: "When is the eldest brother going to go back to the house to see? ”

"The eldest lady will allow me to go back. Xie Cheng teased, "When I was in a hurry, I didn't have time to explain many things to you, but today, many things don't need to be explained." ”

Wanlan smiled and nodded: "Yes, the eldest brother was also patriotic at the beginning, and now that the great cause has been accomplished, I should congratulate you on getting what you want." ”

This remark has a slight irony, it is said that Xie Cheng used the Xie family's money to be a good person, and now he is famous, but he ran to the Xie family to show off his might.

Xie Cheng was a little embarrassed, and subconsciously looked at Xie Huaichang, hoping that he could come forward to solve the siege, but Xie Huaichang sat in his seat steadily, as if he didn't hear Wanlan's extraneous voice at all, and arched his hand to Xie Cheng with a smile: "Yes, Brother Xie Cheng, I should really congratulate you on getting what you wanted, after all, I have seen it in my eyes for so long." ”

Xie Cheng smiled crampedly, and changed the topic stiffly: "I really can't believe that Miss Lan has actually married a wife, and the eldest young master has also married a wife and started a family." ”

Every time he was nervous, he had to talk about some gossip to fool him, and this habit has not changed until now, which makes Wanlan feel quite kind, as if he will be sure that this is indeed the eldest brother Xie Cheng who grew up together since childhood.

The shelf she was holding loosened a little, and smiled at Xie Cheng again: "Big brother, I came to Huaichang today, there is indeed something, I will make an appointment with you again in the future, let's catch up with the old days." ”

Xie Cheng breathed a sigh of relief again, and agreed repeatedly, Xie Huaichang still wanted to say that they were busy with important matters, but Xie Cheng's fear of Wanlan turned out to be more important than that important matter, and he sent them out of the hotel without saying a word.

Xie Huaichang sat on the rickshaw called by Wanlan and sighed: "I really have something very important. ”

Wanlan sneered: "How do you know that I don't have something very important?"

Xie Huaichang wanted to say something, but Wanlan interrupted him again: "What's more, how do you know that my very important matter is not the same thing as yours?"

Xie Huaichang was stunned for a moment, and then was taken aback: "You know?"

Wanlan turned her head away: "Uncle Wu has written a letter. ”

Xie Huaichang suddenly became nervous: "What did he say?"

Wanlan didn't answer, but asked, "What did Xie Cheng say?"

Xie Huaichang made a swallowing motion, and his Adam's apple slid up and down, looking a little nervous: "He said that Mr. Song would go north to take up his post." ”

Wanlan then asked, "Then what does this matter have to do with you?"

Xie Huaichang snorted for a long time: "I...... I might ...... Go to ...... with Mr. Song"

"Are you going to be an official in Mr. Song's cabinet?" Wanlan laughed first after saying this, "Okay, my younger brother has no imperial examination, so he can enter the cabinet to pay respects." ”

Xie Huaichang also laughed when he said this: "Yes, yes, if I worship the prime minister, I will definitely play the president, and Sister Feng, you will be a good one." ”

"Then I really thank you. Wanlan was so angry and funny by his joke that she couldn't help but squeeze him heavily on the arm, "Flim Tongue! Are you still joking with me!"
