The drizzle for days died silently, and the western sky was dyed a blurry orange by the setting sun that showed half of its face. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the recliner in front of the fireplace, the tired Zheng Yi slowly opened his eyes, looked at the empty and silent space, exhaled heavily, turned his body and lay on the wide recliner on his side, silently looking at the red flames swaying in the fireplace in a daze, his mind was full of scenes that appeared in his dreams:

In the fierce battlefield filled with flames in southern Gansu, the old brothers are familiar one by one, and there are countless figures who charge forward one after another in the rain of bullets......

"You're awake...... Is it another nightmare? ”

Liu Yu, who had a big belly, quietly came to Zheng Yi's side, slowly sat down, stretched out his slightly swollen white hand, and gently placed it on Zheng Yi's forehead to check his body temperature.

Zheng Yi held Liu Yu's hand tightly in his warm big hand: "The rain has stopped?" ”

"The rain stopped, the sunset had not yet set, the sky was full of flames, I was stunned, if it wasn't for the phone ringing, I would still be standing on the balcony enjoying the beautiful scenery."

Liu Yu smiled softly.

Zheng Yi turned around, clasped Liu Yu's hand, leaned over to the lips and kissed it, then hugged Liu Yu's fat waist, gently caressed her life-pregnant abdomen, his eyes were full of indescribable warmth and love, he thanked God for giving him a wonderful life, and thanked God for giving him a meek, virtuous, intelligent and beautiful wife.

For this reason, Zheng Yi sighed more than once and was glad that if he was in the distant world in his memory, even if he practiced for a few more lifetimes, it would be difficult to meet a good wife like Liu Yu, and when God caused him to suffer a lot of hardships and pains, it also gave him the happiness and satisfaction he dreamed of.

Liu Yu leaned on Zheng Yi's warm arms with satisfaction: "Why don't you ask me who is calling?" ”

Zheng Yi was stunned for a while before shaking his head and said, "No matter who calls, don't tell me now, let me hug you well and hug you quietly." ”

Liu Yu was moved, although it was not the first time she had enjoyed such a happy moment, she still indulged in it irrepressibly, her smooth and beautiful face flushed like sunset, and her big eyes became blurred.

For a long time, Liu Yu reluctantly left her husband's arms and habitually stroked the dense stubble on her husband's chin:

"The fourth aunt called and asked us to go home for dinner in the evening, saying that Shangguan Shibo and Mr. Chen Jingcun came to the banquet together in the evening, and my father also went home early."

"Chen Jingcun? Is it General Chen Jiongming? Zheng Yi slowly got up.

Liu Yu nodded: "It's him, the fourth aunt said on the phone that Mr. Chen is an important person in the Zhigong Court, and he is also the representative of Hongmen scattered all over Nanyang and the United States, let me remind you to be prepared." ”

Zheng Yi nodded silently, glanced at the Western table clock on the corner cabinet, kissed his beloved wife gently, and then went to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth, he didn't expect that he had just launched an investigation into the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce, and Chen Jiongming, who was still an important figure in Hongmen after going to the field, took the initiative to go to Zheng's mansion as a guest.

This situation made Zheng Yi feel very sudden, he knew that his father and Chen Jiongming had no friendship, although the Feng family in Huhai was a well-known gang family, but the Qing Gang and Hongmen had their own origins, for hundreds of years, the brother-in-law Feng Jingzhai, who was gradually in charge of family affairs, had never told Zheng Yi about Hongmen, nor did he mention whether the Feng family knew Chen Jiongming, the leader of Hongmen.

In this way, Chen Jiongming should be brought by the patriarch of the Shangguan family, and the Shangguan family is likely to play the role of a mediator.

After thinking about it, Zheng Yi quickly finished washing, returned to the bedroom, changed into a more formal dress, and the virtuous Liu Yu picked out a dark blue dark flower tie and came to her husband to help him tie it: "I have already told Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu not to cook our meal, clean up and leave, otherwise we will be late." ”

"Shangguan Jie, that kid didn't call?"

Zheng Yi tilted his head and let his wife help him tie his bow tie.

Liu Yu skillfully tied the bow tie and continued to help her husband button the tortoiseshell button of the Western-style dress: "I didn't receive a call from him, didn't he say that he would go back to Shangguan Shibo to report the inspection in the past two days after lunch?" It is estimated that he is with Shangguan Shibo at this time, and he may be able to see him later. ”

Zheng Yi turned around and gently hugged his beloved wife's waist: "Okay, you can clean up too, I'll go and prepare a coat for you." ”

Liu Yu coquettishly hugged her husband's arm: "I've already packed up, and the coat is on the hanger in the living room, let's go." ”

……

……

Twenty minutes later, Zheng Yi and Liu Yu drove to the gate of the main building of the Zheng Mansion.

The fourth aunt and the two young maids had already been waiting in front of the steps, and when they saw the car stop, they hurriedly greeted them, and helped Liu Yu, who had a big belly, to enter the room, and complained that Zheng Yi shouldn't let Liu Yu sit in the front row as they walked, and there were so many bodyguards who didn't have to drive by themselves, which was really a loss of identity.

Zheng Yi was already immune to the fourth aunt's complaints, and as usual, after entering the hall, he refused to serve the servants, took off his coat, took off his top hat, and hung it in the cloakroom on the side, and saw Shangguan Jiele in a white dress trotting all the way over, and asked in surprise:

"When did you come? Where's your old man? ”

"It's just that I arrived ten minutes earlier than you, my old man and Uncle Chen were led upstairs to the study by your old man, I felt bored, and after listening to it for a while, I came out to wait for you, but I didn't expect you to arrive as soon as I came out."

Shangguan Jie is two years older than Zheng Yi, and he is six points similar to his cousin Shangguan Yong, tall and graceful, but he does not have Shangguan Yong's strong and calm and heroic spirit, but has more of the elegance of a famous family.

Zheng Yi thought about it, took Shangguan Jie's arm, walked to the leisure sofa under the stairs together, instructed the servant to put two cups of hot coffee, and motioned for the happy Shangguan Jie to sit down together: "Let's talk about it, what is the relationship between your master and General Chen Jiongming?" ”

Shangguan Jie casually unbuttoned his suit: "Speaking of which, everyone is in the same vein as Hongmen...... Thirty years ago, our two elders knew each other, and we helped Premier Sun raise funds for the rebellion. ”

"The Chen family is mainly developed in the mainland, after Uncle Chen went into the wilderness, several side branches of the Chen family moved to Sin Chew and the United States respectively, Uncle Chen came to Hong Kong, my old man took the opportunity of coming to Hong Kong this time, and specially called the head of the Cai family in Nanyang and the helm of the Chen family in Sin Chew to get together and say hello to our shipping company in advance."

"How's it going?" Zheng Yi asked.

Shangguan Jie grinned: "Very good, Uncle Chen promised to help us get a piece of land and set up a Sin Chew branch, and Uncle Cai Shi has properties in Batavia, Palembang and Sambaolong, and promised to provide us with the greatest support." ”

"Uncle Chen Shi is very optimistic about our shipping company and wants to buy shares, it is estimated that a few old men are discussing this matter in the study, and they will definitely ask you what you mean."

When Zheng Yi heard this, his brain quickly turned, digesting this extremely important news, analyzing the benefits and disadvantages in order to make the most beneficial choice for himself.
