Wanlan did what she said, and when Xie Huaichang went out again the next day, she was going to follow her, and Xie Huaichang didn't want to show his timidity in front of his friends, so he had to not go out for a few days, and read all kinds of original English books under Wanlan's urging.

When Jiang Fangzhen's post was delivered to the house, Xie Huaichang had stopped for two months, and in the past two months, even Wanlan occasionally went out to meet friends, telling Mrs. Feng that Xie Huaichang should never be allowed to leave the house alone. Therefore, when Xie Huaichang saw this post, he was as excited as if he had been in a drought for a long time, and he couldn't wait to show it to Wanlan before opening the package.

"Oh, Jiang Baili's post," Wanlan opened the envelope and read the post, and handed it to Xie Huaichang: "I'll go with you." ”

Xie Huaichang was a little reluctant: "I have told you about these friends before, so there is no need to be so troublesome." ”

Wanlan smiled: "In the post, they want to invite me to the banquet, why is it troublesome? Heng Zhu has not returned the last appointment, and I will prepare a heavy gift for him tomorrow," she paused, and then said: "Jiang Baili is going to Germany." ”

Xie Huaichang was taken aback, and hurriedly took the post and browsed it at a glance: "Last time I said it was eleven ......" He suddenly stopped, and then he realized that he hadn't been out of the house for two months, and it was already November.

Suddenly, he felt a little emotional, and complained casually: "I don't know when I will see you again, but Sister Ah actually detained me in the house for two months." ”

"In the future, you will thank me for detaining you for these two months," Wanlan replied to him without raising her head: "The restaurant he ordered is Donglaishun, saying that it has only been newly opened for two years, and it is made of shabu-shabu, have you heard of it?"

Xie Huaichang shook his head: "I'm not as extensive as you, I used to go out to Yaji, just find a tea room, how do you know the restaurant to eat, and is it important to eat in this restaurant? ”

Wanlan explained with a smile: "De Ling only accompanied me to make a new dress, picked a delicate material, and was afraid that I would wear it and rub the oil and wash the trouble." ”

Xie Huaichang said: "You don't just have that dress. ”

Wanlan said: "To Jiang Fangzhen's banquet, you naturally have to dress more grandly, this person must not be underestimated in the future, you must not lose contact with him." ”

Xie Huaichang was surprised: "You are so sure, could it be that Miss Yu told you something again?"

Wanlan asked rhetorically: "Isn't this obvious enough? He graduated from the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School and took away the Japanese Emperor's Treasure Sword with the first place, Liang Qichao was his teacher, and Zhao Erxun was personally hired as a recruit instructor in the three eastern provinces...... He is the revolutionary party. ”

Xie Huaichang gasped: "He has never said anything related to the revolutionary party, and even when someone talks about Sun Wen in Yazhong, he rarely ......."

As he spoke, he suddenly paused and exhaled slowly: "If your guess is true, then he is hiding a deep enough ......"

Wanlan smiled: "You, you're still very tender, what's the use of talking about those false texts all day long? ”

Xie Huaichang sighed: "I'm not as good as Sister Lan." ”

Wanlan waved her hand: "Don't say this, what kind of strength do we sisters and brothers have? I don't have such great ambition as you, I can't think of recovering China, I just want my family to be safe." Huaichang, you remember, although it is said that the country is the first family, but if the whole world is ruined, then what kind of country is there to talk about? It is good that you have the ambition to level the world, but don't take the whole family to pave the way for your ambition, and we don't owe you, why? ”

Xie Huaichang smiled and bowed his hand to Wanlan, and gave a long stroke: "I know, Sister, your warning words, I must engrave it in my heart in the future, read it every day when I get up, and read it once when I fall asleep." Father and mother are not here, but you have put on the majesty of your elders. ”

Wanlan smiled and patted his hand: "Flim Tongue, you and I are willing." ”

On the second day, she really wore a new dress, an elegant long skirt embellished with cascaded lace, because she had not wrapped her small feet before, she could just wear Western-style high heels, covered with a thick woolen coat, and her long hair was pulled up, like a "fake foreigner" who had just returned from Europe.

Wanlan was very satisfied with her dress, and wanted to try to paint a new Western makeup, but Dai Chunlin's white powder was really weird, so she gave up, she struggled for a long time, and went out with a plain face.

Xie Huaichang laughed at her in the car: "Yesterday, I said that Jiang Fangzhen's banquet would be grander, but today I didn't even bother to paint makeup." ”

Wanlan glanced at him and said, "What do you know, your sister's name is disgusted with the color of fat powder." ”

Although this is arrogant, she is very appropriate. Wanlan's eyebrows and eyes are already beautiful, the eyebrows are not depicted, the lips are not painted red, although the skin color is not as white as winter snow in Europe, but it is better than the delicate skin, the cheeks are ruddy, and there is an oblique shallow groove on the cheeks when laughing.

They were talking and laughing, but there was a sudden scream outside the car, and the driver's voice was fierce, "Huh-", and then the body shook left and right, Xie Huaichang hurriedly protected Wanlan on his chest, and grabbed the door frame with one hand, so that he was not thrown out.

Lao Pan, the coachman of the Xie family, had a burst temper, and as soon as the Wanlan brothers and sisters stabilized their bodies, they heard him shouting outside: "Don't you have long eyes! I haven't seen such a big car here!

I didn't know that the other party was also a coward, and immediately scolded in a higher voice: "If I don't have long eyes, you just don't have seven tricks, the whole Ga miscellaneous glass ball, which law in the Qing Dynasty stipulates that the rickshaw has to give way to your carriage, you find it out for me, the road goes to the sky, I walk well, you have to come and squeeze me, it doesn't matter if you startle the horse and step on my cheap life, can you afford to hurt the master behind me!"

Lao Pan was even more furious when he heard this, and was about to get angry, Wanlan hurriedly called him in the car: "Okay, Uncle Pan, there are people coming and going on this street, and there will inevitably be a bump in the aisle, so it didn't hurt you." ”

As soon as she accosted her like this, Lao Pan didn't care about arguing with others, and hurriedly replied: "No, Miss Young Master is fine, right?"

"We're fine, what about the one we bumped into?"

When the man heard the main man speak, he had the intention of blackmail, and then opened his voice: "Hey, this young lady in the car is really a bodhisattva, Bodhisattva, the little foot is twisted, you see, this aisle is still crutching!"

Before Wanlan could answer, the distinguished guest in the car opened his mouth, and his voice was cold: "Make way for them, I'll pay you for the medicine if you are injured." ”

Xie Huaichang felt that this voice was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere, but before he could figure out a reason, Wanlan thanked him with a handful of Qing Lingling's voice, and urged Lao Pan: "Let's go, it's not good if it's late." ”

The coolie pulling the rickshaw did not dare to offend the distinguished guests on the car, so he had to take two steps back to make way for the carriage, and was about to complain, but the distinguished guest opened his mouth: "Which carriage is that?"

The coolie sighed: "How can I see what you are asking." ”

The distinguished guest let out a faint "oh", and listened carefully and was a little disappointed: "Let's go." ”

The coolie seemed to feel a little taste, and said with a smile: "Don't you look at the throat of the young lady in the car, do you......?

"Alright," interrupted him, still in an indifferent voice, "let's go." ”

The place where they were going was not far from the entrance of the street, and it was only a few steps away from a few words, and the coolie saw the carriage parked at the gate of Donglaishun with sharp eyes, and he seemed to have made a meritorious service: "Master, look at it! Isn't this the carriage we just met at the corner of the street? Hey, this is really a godsend." ”

The man raised his eyes and saw that Wanlan was helped out of the car by Xie Huaichang, and said something to the coachman, a little smile appeared on his face, and he instructed the coolie to park the car next to the carriage: "Ning Yin, long time no see." ”

Xie Huaichang raised his head in response, and suddenly realized: "It turned out that it was Mr. Chen's car that I just hit, I said that I heard you speak so familiarly, I'm really sorry, I didn't hurt you, right?"

Chen Ji smiled slightly, but his eyes had already drifted to Wanlan: "No, what about you? I heard that there are female passengers in the car, it's okay." ”

Wanlan noticed the movement here early in the morning, and guessed the identity of the person who came when she heard the words "Mr. Chen", and then heard Chen Ji ask about her, so she turned her head and smiled, and listened to Xie Huaichang's introduction: "This ...... It's Ping Qing, the daughter of the second uncle's mansion. ”

He didn't point out Wanlan's identity, Chen Ji preconceived Xie Wanxin as Xie Wanlan, and at this moment, he naturally recognized Wanlan as Xie Wanxin, and greeted with his chin: "Miss Pingqing." ”

Wanlan smiled at him, her eyes flowing, and she returned the salute: "Mr. Chen." ”

Chen Ji said: "I am a jade set, Miss Pingqing is like them, just call me a jade set." ”

As he spoke, he naturally bypassed Xie Huaichang and walked to Wanlan's side: "You didn't surprise Miss, did you?"

Wanlan rolled her eyes and glanced at Xie Huaichang, both of them with unfathomable smiles: "You care, I'm fine." Ning Yin brought me to Mr. Baili's banquet, are you too?"

While speaking, they had already walked to the door of the private room, and Chen Ji pushed the door open for Wanlan very gentlemanly, and replied, "Yes, I have been old friends with Baili for many years. ”

Jiang Fangzhen ordered food in the private room just now, and turned his face to see this group of people coming in, a strange woman walked in the front, followed by Chen Ji, and finally Xie Huaichang, Xie Huaichang winked at him when he entered the door, and then glanced at the pair in front of him.

He immediately heard the song and knew what he meant: "This must be the new young lady, Ning Yin is really a blessing, I and Yuji a few days ago," he paused deliberately before continuing: "I just saw his eldest sister who is as beautiful as a flower." ”

Chen Ji clenched his fist to his lips and coughed lightly.
