I don't know if it's the butterfly effect brought about by Wang Zijun, Carina Lau's father Liu Guiming should have been in the article. Soon after the end of the revolution, he was invited by a friend to work in a bank in Hong Kong, and only after more than two years did he take his wife and children to settle in Hong Kong.

But somehow, Liu Guiming's friend Lao Luo didn't mix well in this time and space. Lao Luo came to Hong Kong in the 60s, and later gradually mixed into the lower management of a bank, and his life was still passable.

Who knew that a stock market crash a few years ago caused Lao Luo's assets to shrink by half, and his wife fell into the well and swept away the rest of his money, so that now he can only live in a cramped rented house.

Liu Guiming, who was supposed to go to Hong Kong to work as a bank clerk two years ago, brought his family to Hong Kong half a year ahead of schedule to join his old friends because he got into trouble in the mainland. walked anxiously, so much so that Carina Lau couldn't wait to graduate from junior high school in more than a month.

Because of Lao Luo's help, Liu Guiming, who was born as a literati, soon became a junior clerk in a bank, but Carina Lau's mother Wang Fumei did not find a job. What's worse, their family's savings are only enough to pay two months' rent, and Carina Lau's sister and brother have no education for the time being.

Carina Lau's family has been in Hong Kong for five days, and today Liu Guiming finally officially went to work in the bank. Carina Lau's sister and brother who are not in school are staying in their new home watching TV, this TV is an old-fashioned black and white TV left by the owner, and it often makes trouble and can't show the image, but this also makes Carina Lau and her brother happy.

Wang Fumei cleaned her new home and pulled out the box she had brought from the mainland, which contained more than a dozen framed paintings. Carina Lau's grandfather is a famous painter in Suzhou, and her mother Wang Fumei is also a well-known painter, and these more than ten paintings are all fine works created by her.

"Alas!" Wang Fumei sighed, although she was reluctant, but now she had no choice but to sell these paintings in pain, otherwise the family of four would be hungry before her husband could get his salary.

In the past few days, Lao Luo has taken their family around Hong Kong, and Wang Fumei is already familiar with the nearby roads, plus there is a map of Hong Kong's urban area, Wang Fumei decided to go out today to try her luck.

Wang Fumei put away the painting and prepared to go out with the box on her back, but she couldn't rest assured that the two children at home would break in. After thinking about it, he had to wave to his children: "Jialing, Jiayong, turn off the TV and go out to sell paintings with your mother." ”

"Good!" Carina Lau obediently stood up to turn off the TV, Carina Lau stared at the TV a little reluctantly, but still walked towards her mother.

Wang Fumei led a pair of children downstairs, and met two or three neighbors along the way, she took the initiative to nod and smile, but the other party looked at their dress, but they didn't have a good face.

Walking out of the somewhat dirty alley, the whispering from behind made Wang Fumei panic.

"Hey, Sanzai, look at the mainland girl!"

"What's so good about mainland girls? One is more than one two (rustic). ”

"The one who led the child, his ass was so cocked, and he twisted and twisted so much that it tickled my heart. Ha ha! ”

"Which? Which one? ”

"Over there!"

"It's really beautiful, it's definitely a beautiful girl when you dress up, it's enough to be a deed mother-in-law."

"Hahaha......"

Wang Fumei was only in her thirties at this time, and her appearance was similar to that of Carina Lau as an adult, but she had more of a delicate and literary atmosphere. She could only speak some simple Cantonese, but she understood the meaning of the Qi family's mother-in-law being a mistress, and she was so frightened that she pulled her children to speed up her pace.

Carina Lau was held by her mother's little hand and walked through one store after another, her eyes slid over all kinds of beautiful clothes, watches, cakes, and toys. Through the glass of the window, those things were very close to her, but they were so far away that they seemed to be in another world.

After walking for a long time, Wang Fumei finally found a shop selling paintings, and took the child and walked inside. …,

The shops sell oil paintings bound in frames, and Wang Fumei's first reaction when she enters the store is to taste the paintings on the walls with a professional eye. After a few glances, Wang Fumei was convinced that these oil paintings were all ordinary colors, and they couldn't be compared with those fine brushstrokes in her back box.

The painting shop is not big, there is only a female cashier who collects accounts and opens bills, and a middle-aged male shopkeeper who is reading a gossip magazine.

"Buying paintings?" The male shopkeeper raised his head, and Wang Fumei's rustic dress made him see at a glance that they were from the mainland, and he couldn't help but feel a little disdainful. However, when he saw Wang Fumei's appearance clearly, his eyes lit up, and he stood up with a smile and was ready to greet him warmly.

Wang Fumei glanced at the magazine cover in the male shopkeeper's hand, and her face couldn't help but turn red, and there was a half-naked woman on it, and the key parts were covered with a gossip pattern.

"How do you sell your words here?" Wang Fumei asked in half-baked Cantonese, she did not directly explain her intentions, but was ready to find out the prices of the oil paintings in the store first.

How could an adult, two teenage children, and three people wearing rustic clothes come to buy paintings?

Another person would have blasted Wang Fumei out a long time ago, but the shopkeeper took them to look at the paintings very enthusiastically, and his eyes swept over Wang Fumei's face and chest intentionally or unintentionally.

In recent years, there have been more and more people fleeing Hong Kong from the mainland, most of whom are so poor that they cannot afford to eat, and they often do some illegal things, which is also one of the reasons why Hong Kong people hate mainlanders.

The male shopkeeper obviously regarded Wang Fumei as a mainland girl who had no food, and thought about how to hook up and spend dozens of yuan to play. If it weren't for Wang Fumei with two children, with her appearance, the male shopkeeper would even have some thoughts of raising her as a foreign house.

"This is an imitation of Van Gogh's "Sunflowers", which is the early work of the famous Hong Kong artist Fan Moumou, although the painting style is not mature, but the lines and colors are ......" The male shopkeeper enthusiastically made an introduction, but Wang Fumei did not listen, because she saw a line of small words under the painting, which was the price of the oil painting.

Oh my God, such a low-quality oil painting can be sold for more than 200!

Compared with her own works, Wang Fumei is becoming more and more confident in her heart, because there are several pairs of backboxes that are her old father's masterpieces.

The male shopkeeper didn't have much heart to sell, and took the opportunity to get closer and closer to the beautiful mainland girl, and even rubbed his elbow against Wang Fumei's arm a few times.

Carina Lau is a little younger, her eyes are staring at the oil painting, but Carina Lau is already sensible, and when she saw that the male shopkeeper was unruly, she quietly pulled the corner of her mother's clothes.

Wang Fumei was pulled twice by her daughter, and suddenly woke up, took two steps back, took out her own gongbi drawings from the back box, and said: "Boss, I have some paintings here, do you think you can accept them?" ”

As soon as the male shopkeeper saw those fine brush paintings, he immediately understood, it turned out that this mainland girl couldn't afford to eat, and she was going to sell paintings to make a living! Although the shopkeeper has always been dealing with oil paintings, he still has the ability to appreciate them, and he knows that these fine brushstrokes are fine products when he looks at them, and he will definitely make a lot of money by finding the right buyer. Suddenly, he had the idea of not thinking about it, and wanted to have both wealth and wealth.

"Sell paintings!" The shopkeeper flipped through the fine brushstrokes as if he were buying meat, and said with a disdainful look, "We only accept oil paintings here......

Wang Fumei was disappointed for a while, and was ready to leave without waiting for the shopkeeper to finish speaking: "That won't bother you!" ”

"Eh, wait, I'll take a look at it for you." When the male shopkeeper saw that she was leaving, he hurriedly kept her, and said to the female cashier, "Sister, you take a look at the store first, and I'll help this young lady appreciate the painting." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at the strokes and said to Wang Fumei, "Otherwise." I have a friend who likes Gongbi painting, so I'll see if these words are good first, and if it's appropriate, I'll accept it on behalf of my friend. ”…,

"Really? Thank you so much! Wang Fumei thought that she had met a good person today, although the shopkeeper was a little lustful.

The male shopkeeper looked at the painting again, slightly shocked, with the current market, these more than ten pairs of gongbi paintings can definitely be sold for tens of thousands of yuan.

"The painting of these paintings is average, and the silk used for painting is not a good silk, you look at this one, the rice paper is too inferior!" The male shopkeeper tried his best to belittle the painting in front of him.

Wang Fumei was angry when she heard this, her and her father's paintings were actually said to be useless, this man is really a profiteer!

"In this way, it is not easy for you to come from the mainland, and with two children, I will take it as a good deed" The male shopkeeper made up his mind after some "inner struggle", "A total of fourteen paintings, I will give you five hundred yuan." ”

"Five hundred!" If Wang Fumei hadn't seen the price of the oil paintings in the store, maybe she would have talked to the shopkeeper about the price, but now when she heard the offer, she knew that the shopkeeper was not sincere in buying it, and was about to leave with the child.

"Wait, I'll buy all of them for eight hundred, eight hundred." The shopkeeper was busy.

Wang Fumei gritted her teeth and said, "Five thousand yuan, I won't sell it for a penny less!" ”

"Five thousand?" The male shopkeeper saw that this mainland girl didn't seem to be easy to fool, thinking that five thousand yuan was enough for him to earn, the corners of his mouth curled and said, "Okay, it's just five thousand, what about your ID card?" ”

"Do you want an ID card?" Wang Fumei was surprised. Her husband now uses the mainland household registration certificate plus the guarantor's guarantee for work, how can she have an ID card? The mainland did not issue the first generation of ID cards until 1984, and Wang Fumei did not even have a Hong Kong ID card, not even a mainland ID card.

"Of course, you need an ID card, 5,000 yuan is not a small amount." The shopkeeper said with a glare: "You won't be smuggled from the mainland, will you?" I don't even have an ID card. ”

Wang Fumei was stared at and asked, "Can the mainland's proof work?" ”

"No way!" The male shopkeeper looked at the three of them with a thief-staring look, and looked at Wang Fumei in a panic. Seeing that it was almost over, the shopkeeper suddenly changed his tone, "Oh, look at you pitiful." Come with me to the inner room, I'll give you the money, and the rest of the people will see it, or the police will arrest you." ”

Wang Fumei was frightened by him, and only felt that something was wrong, but she still told the two children to wait in the store outside, and followed the shopkeeper to the back room.

In the back room, there are a lot of picture frames, plus a single bed for resting.

Wang Fumei was waiting for the shopkeeper to give money, but when she saw the shopkeeper hugging her all of a sudden, she said anxiously: "This cousin, sleep with me, I will not only buy your paintings, but also give you an extra thousand." ”

"Let me go, or I'll call someone!" Wang Fumei struggled vigorously.

The shopkeeper fearlessly pushed Wang Fumei to the single bed, and said with a smile: "You shout, you are a mainland girl who smuggled over, see if the police arrest you or me." ”

Wang Fumei was finally pressed down on the bed by the shopkeeper, and when the shopkeeper saw that she was frightened, he laughed treacherously and began to take off his clothes.

Seeing that the shopkeeper's clothes covered his face when he undressed, Wang Fumei lifted a foot and kicked on the shopkeeper's crotch.

"Ahh The shopkeeper screamed, clutching his crotch and howling.

Wang Fumei took the opportunity to get up from the bed and ran out quickly. Ran to the store, picked up the suitcase, pulled a child in one hand and said, "Let's go!" ”

Carina Lau didn't know what was going on, she was pulled out of the store by her mother, and then the three of them ran for their lives on the road.

I don't know how long I ran, Carina Lau felt pain under her ribs, and said with tightness in her chest and panting: "Mom, I'm ...... I...... Can't run...... Finish! ”

Wang Fumei slowed down at this time, turned her head to look, and stopped when she found that no one was chasing her.

The three sat down on the side of the street and gasped, passers-by looking at them with disdain or sympathy, and then walked away without stopping.

"Ding......" a coin fell in front of them. …,

Carina Lau was so aggrieved that she wanted to cry, she had never suffered much since she was a child, but she was actually regarded as a beggar in Hong Kong.

"Mom, do you still want to sell paintings?" Carina Lau felt that she couldn't stand it if she stayed here for another second.

"It's not for sale, let's go home." Wang Fumei turned around and wiped away the tears that overflowed from the corners of her eyes.

Wang Fumei walked a few streets with her children, and gradually discovered a terrible thing, she actually got lost, and the map of the city in her pocket also fell, which should have been dropped while fighting with the shopkeeper.

In the big city of Hong Kong, it seems that every street is exactly the same, and like Suzhou, each street has its own characteristics. Wang Fumei feels that where is the metropolis? It's just a forest of stones.

Walking, walking, Wang Fumei went up to ask pedestrians every time she walked a while, and finally asked about the bus route, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she got on the bus.

But when she arrived at the terminal, she found that everything in front of her was even stranger, and when she asked someone, Wang Fumei almost fainted to the ground.

The bus was on the right track, but it was going in the opposite direction, and worse, the money on me was no longer enough to take the bus again.

Wang Fumei walked in the direction of home with her children in despair, and Carina Lau's sister and brother both realized the seriousness of the problem and silently followed their mother to walk together.

After walking for more than half an hour, Liu Jiayong suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Mom, sister, that person is Chu Liuxiang!" ”

Carina Lau looked along her brother's hand, but saw that in front of a building, Wang Zijun got out of a limousine, and the two men were waiting to greet him.

When Wang Zijun shook hands with the two men, the car he had just sat in had already driven away by itself.

"Mom, I have a way to go home!" Carina Lau suddenly shook off her mother's hand and ran towards Wang Zijun quickly.

"Jialing, come back!" Wang Fumei hurriedly shouted, but she couldn't call her daughter at all.

Carina Lau ran towards Wang Zijun quickly, she didn't know any other adults except Uncle Luo after coming to Hong Kong. Relatively speaking, this "Xiang Shuai" who appears on TV every day can already be regarded as an acquaintance. And he plays the hero so well, he himself must be willing to help.

"Chu Liuxiang, Chu Liuxiang, wait a minute!" Carina Lau can't remember Wang Zijun's name, but she only recognizes him as Chu Liuxiang.

Wang Zijun came to Jiashi to do a new show this time, and was just about to enter the Jiashi building, but he heard someone shouting Chu Liuxiang, and couldn't help but stop and turn around, but saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl wearing homespun clothes and pigtails running towards him
