"Whew-"

Sometimes, the whistle really sounds like a desperate whimper.

"What do you think? Stay here, you can be a first-class pilot, or even stay as an instructor. We will give you the best treatment. ”

"I'm going back home."

Three years is not a long time, it is probably the time when an old friend has a mustache.

When Wei Shengqing set foot on the land of Hu City again, the sky had changed.

No one here knew of her return, and her connection with the place had been severed a year ago.

She wore a hat and carried a suitcase, and stood blankly in the street. There are a lot fewer rickshaws, and the familiar street shops have all changed, and there are wanderers on the street, and from time to time I see Chinese people in dark blue uniforms patrolling over and nodding to them.

What is homesickness? is probably walking towards his former home step by step, but the pace is getting slower and slower.

A brand-new car drove by, and the people sitting in the car were wearing yellow military uniforms, and there was a puddle of water stains as they passed by Wei Shengqing.

Today's weather is very gray, dark clouds are pressing, wind and rain are coming, and the air seems to be frozen.

That night, she sat outside all night, and the night dew was so heavy that it was like tears.

"The descendants of the Wei family, don't shed tears······" Her voice was as low as a mosquito, and she blurted out unconsciously after reading it countless times in her heart.

As soon as the words came out, tears dripped onto the back of his hand.

"Woo-" The forced whimper seemed to be the low cry of the young beast's liver.

A year ago, the Wei Family Mansion became the office of the Dongying Army.

A year and three months ago, a charge of "colluding with the South China Sea government" turned this place into purgatory, and blood was washed for three days and three nights.

At that time, there were thirteen surviving soldiers in the Wei Family Mansion, and they and Mrs. Wei Xiwei caused the biggest loss of the Dongying people in Hu City here - thirty people.

Dongying people want to "cooperate" with the Wei family to obtain the Wei family's interests in silk. They said, "There is no blame for the past." ”

Wei Xi sternly refused, at that time, he had already chosen the same fate as starting a family.

Everyone knew the ending, Wei Xi was ready to send those patriots out of the big cage of Hu City at the last moment of his life, but he didn't expect the Dongying people to come so quickly.

Weisey was the one who fired the first shot, and he didn't deliberately aim at it. The first shot was not meant to kill.

This is a signal. The signal that the Wei family had prepared a long time ago.

A fire burned all the silk that was too late to be shipped, and the assembly line of the factory was sunk into the sea.

There is only one empty shell. The people of Dongying will not get a single trace in the Wei family.

The Wei family is just one case, only it has been destroyed. Half a year before the destruction of the Wei family, a large number of entrepreneurs in Hu City evacuated Hu City, including the Hong family.

It is unknown why Wei Xi didn't evacuate with him at that time, and what was left behind was just a building that had become the residence of the Dongying people.

Started a family and perished. The Wei family is extinguished.

The surface of Hu City is still prosperous, it is still a gathering of three religions and nine streams, and there are still unloading laborers on the wharf.

It's just that the faces of the laborers are not familiar anymore.

"Just call me dried turnips."

When he found the man, he had already grown two moots, and his immature face was very contradictory to those two mustaches, which looked quite funny.

Three years ago, dried radish was a kid at the mixed dock, and three years later, he was a leader of the small underground forces in Hu City. But he still knew Wei Shengqing.

"Miss Wei, are you back?" He habitually smiled all over his face, but his eyes were red.

His father, a confidant of the Wei family, was sent to a prison cell after setting a fire. Before the execution, he bit off a piece of the flesh of a Dongying man.

In the end, the dried radish still didn't see his father for the last time.

My father said that he should hide well and not be exposed, so he became a dried turnip, a "lower ninth-rate" who mingled in the bottom and darkness.

"What about the others?"

Her ambition is clear, but what to do? She has nowhere to go now.

Dried radish said: "The Mo family was betrayed when they secretly evacuated, the head of the Mo family was assassinated and killed, at that time, the Hong family had withdrawn, Master Wei was targeted, pinched to death, he didn't connect the head of the Mo family at all, and the Mo family's property was copied, which is why Master Wei prepared the fire later." The servants of the Mo family were all dismissed safely, but Miss Mo Shang was nowhere to be found······ Maybe it was because he escaped from Hu City. ”

Maybe it's dead.

The two of them knew what they didn't say.

"What about the Red Family?"

"The Hong family has become mysterious since you left three years ago, this time most of the entrepreneurs were able to withdraw, or the news of the Red family, but these entrepreneurs scattered everywhere, but I don't know which direction the Red family has reached, now that I think about it, the Red family has long expected it, and no one can find them."

Wei Shengqing subconsciously pressed the piece of peace charm, the peace charm was wrapped in the red bean, and she hadn't returned it yet.

"The Hong family was originally in the saline-alkali business, could it be that they went south? The situation in the south seems to be much better than on this side. ”

This is the most likely, but Wei Shengqing subconsciously denied this possibility.

As for why, she couldn't answer, could it be that it was intuition? But her education didn't allow her to trust that feeling.

"I want revenge, but I also want to repay the country." Her eyes were a little ruthless, "Dried radish, do you know the power of the Dongying people here?" ”

Radish smiled bitterly: "I'm just a small leader, far from those classes, I know the general situation, but I don't think it can reach the level you want." ”

"Find someone for me." Her eyes suddenly lit up, "That person's nickname: basket." ”

The basket is not a person, but an organization that has been passed down from generation to generation, or rather, a person with an unusually wide connection, the four families are all founded by him, I don't know if this year, it is the uncle I once saw, or the new successor.

But if it is a basket, it may not be impossible to find the blind spot of the Dongying people.

······

"Those two people are here again today, sister, or for you." A plainly dressed woman said with a smile, her demeanor was unusually pure.

The woman opposite her put down the eyebrow pencil in her hand, and the charm of her eyes naturally revealed, which was very attractive: "But they are all laymen." She took a mirror and raised a charming smile at herself in the mirror, "But the identity is good." ”

"The puppet government's Minister of Transportation and the Commander of the Guard, these two people are really high-level figures in Hu City now, sister, do you want to be careful?" The woman was quite sad.

"It's okay, it's just a wine bag and a rice bag." She cleared her throat, her expression was charming, but her eyes were cold, "I'm trapped here, and I can only be a marionette if I continue to stay, but who can save me from it?" But to see your old acquaintance, are the two of us lucky or unlucky? ”

The woman said, "Sister, don't say those frustrating words, I'll go out to investigate." ”

"Although this place is also a mix of dragons and snakes, how difficult is it for you to reach those people? That is, with the opportunity of the personal maid to go out to buy things, I see that with your appearance, you will soon be sent to the front of the stage by them, you better leave early, Huanyan. She touched the woman's head.

said with a straight face: "If it weren't for Master Mo and your sister, our family would have starved to death a long time ago, and I will repay this kindness no matter what." ”

"Miss Yuru, come out and sing." A middle-aged woman shouted.

"Here we are." The woman confirmed that her posture was seductive enough to make her eyes dye with flattery, and then she walked out in a slender posture.

There was a lot of noise outside, it turned out to be a dance hall, and at this moment the lights were all turned off, and Yuru walked up with a familiar look, "Huh-" The spotlight hit her.

She had already adapted to the heat of the spotlight, and she walked to the microphone and started singing directly, but her eyes flowed, and she seemed to throw out countless winks.

The atmosphere in the audience suddenly became warm, the words of different accents rang out unevenly, and the men looked at the stunners on the stage with dry mouths, their eyes shining.

"It's disgusting." There is a delicate-looking woman in this place, she is wearing a smart suit, her long hair is coiled up and tucked into a hat, at first glance she really looks like a little brother, but her body is thin, and there is a unique feminine softness between her eyebrows, and you can conclude that it is a woman after a closer look.

"Haha, this is a man's paradise, Minister Shen, you are an innocent woman, you have said not to come here with us." A tall man with a Chinese character face said, but his eyes were not separated from Yuru, and his hot eyes were like substance.

"As long as you don't stand in the way of my policy, I'll leave right away! Never bother you again! Minister Shen couldn't help but didn't turn his face, but his face was already iron-blue.

Another chubby middle-aged man combed his hair well, and when he saw Minister Shen's angry words, he immediately squinted his eyes and played a round game: "Eh, we are all rough people who haven't read any books, please forgive Minister Shen." ”

Minister Shen was even more disgusted with this fat man, "Minister Liu, I am implementing a policy, why do you still ask your subordinates to boycott it?" The traffic is stuck here, how do you let me continue? ”

Minister Liu's eyes widened, as if surprised, and said, "Where can I ask people to resist Minister Shen's policy?" Eh, it must be that my subordinates have done something wrong, so they will shirk the responsibility, and I will teach them a lesson when I go back. ”

Minister Shen is still not stupid in the end, this Minister Liu is obviously talking nonsense, where are his subordinates doing something wrong, they don't do it at all, or even go against the law!

"You, you ······" She was speechless in a fit of rage.

Suddenly, all the lights came on, but it turned out that Yuru had already sung a song.

Yuru's singing voice was like a song, and it was refreshing, except for Minister Shen, who was not here at all, everyone else applauded.

Yuru smiled reservedly, her eyes swept to her "acquaintance", the two of them were still the same as usual, but there seemed to be one more person around them, and that person was extremely unwilling to sell his face. There was a hint of interest in Yuru's eyes.

"It's because the little girl sings too badly, otherwise this ······ Why didn't the young lady applaud? Yu stepped down from the stage and walked between Minister Liu and the tall man, and raised her eyebrows at Minister Shen.

She is not short, but she didn't expect this Minister Shen to look delicate, but he was much taller than her.

Minister Shen didn't have a good impression of this kind of woman, and he was angry, although he felt that this woman was really too beautiful and enchanting, he still snorted coldly and ignored it.

"This is our talented woman, an economist who came back from the United States, and the current Vice Minister of Finance, Miss Shen Wushuang, who is highly regarded by the chairman, after all, she was recommended by her father, Shen Wanliang, the teacher of the chairman." The tall man's tone was slightly sarcastic.

He is not a person who likes to fight with others, after all, is it easy to get into this position? It's just that Shen Wushuang said in front of the chairman several times that he was not, and he didn't say that he was "a thief" and "weak and bulliable".

Shen Wushuang naturally knew that he was implicitly mocking, and the anger in his heart was almost unbearable, but he saw Yuru smile softly, "It turned out to be Miss Shen, Miss Shen's women don't let her eyebrows shave, she is really a model for our women." ”

"Who is going to be your role model?" Shen Wushuang's tone was extremely angry, but Yuru was not angry at all, showing a charming smile at Minister Liu and the tall man.

"Both of you are distinguished guests who often listen to songs, please sit on the second floor, Yuru can't leave the stage for too long, otherwise she will be scolded by the little aunt."

Shen Wushuang watched Yuru stand on the stage again and start singing, the two men were also staring here, only feeling a headache, thinking that this time they all came here or no result, and it was estimated that they would have to ask the chairman for some power. As soon as she thought of this, she hurried out.

The two men didn't stop either, and looked at each other with a tacit sneer.

Shen Wushuang is talented, but she is too rigid and naïve, she doesn't know how to coordinate and make concessions at all, she only knows how to show what she has learned all her life, where is the reality so simple?

She wants to revitalize the economy of Hu City, but the market is so big, at least in the initial stage, she wants to grab benefits from their high-level leaders, who is willing to do it? Even if he is the chairman of the committee, he will not let a little girl come around.

Yuru saw it clearly, but she didn't show any sound.

······

"Xiaoxiao, I'll bring this over, you can rest." The woman looked gentle and said to another tired woman.

"Okay, thank you. Otherwise, I'm going to get tired······ I don't know what the young lady is doing, jealous of a man who has a wife. The little muttered, and the woman could hear it clearly, but she didn't say a word.

This house is very big, but there are more soldiers than servants, and the young lady brought over is just two people, Xiaoxiao traveled all over Mu City yesterday because of the young lady's request, and if you don't rest well, you will collapse, and now you have to use more effort. The woman sighed, but her gaze was still gentle.

"Miss, your porridge." He lowered his eyebrows and placed the porridge on the table, and it was not surprising to see the girl fiddling with her clothes.

"Wait," the girl suddenly stopped the person who wanted to leave, pointed to a chair opposite, and said, "You sit, I'll ask you a few questions." ”

"Miss, just ask, I must know everything."

Looking at the man's gentle, almost doting eyes, the girl was a little awkward, and said, "How can I make a man die for me?" ”

She was stunned for a moment, her eyes flashed, and her voice was a little low: "General Zhang, he is a man with a wife, Miss, you better go back as soon as possible." ”

"That's what you say! That's what you all say! If I have a wife, I can be a concubine, even if I have no name, I have to stay by his side! The girl suddenly became excited, and she looked at the girl in a daze.

"When we first met, young lady, how glorious you were. Confident, proud, but kind. She whispered as if recalling: "Why bother to abandon your family and life for a man." ”

"Do you remember the first time we met? Then you should hate the Dongying people to the core, Congshan is a person who wants to do great things, his ambition is to defeat the Dongying people, you should admire him! "Girls hate iron and steel.

She was cold, "I hate Dongying people, but I also know that living is the most important thing, I don't have that ability, so I can only hide in the compound, and I just want to live quietly and quietly, without being bound by hatred and pain." ”

"You're a coward!" The girl shouted, suddenly with a look of disdain.

Coward······ She remembered that someone had said the same, but that was a long, long time ago, and from the beginning, she just wanted to live in peace, but why did she follow the girl to this place that was not very safe? She lowered her eyes and silently withdrew.

Perhaps, she is really a coward.
