Chapter 142 is about to change
Xiao Ju helped Xie Dad, Xie Ma and Xie Meina move the luggage piled up in the living room to the military off-road vehicle parked outside the gate, but she didn't expect that it was Xie Dad himself who was driving. It seems that Xie Ma and Xie Meina left Huaxia to go to the United States, and Xie Dad did it very secretly.
When the luggage was put in the car, Xie Ma and Xie Meina also got into the car, and when Xie Dad got into the cab, he whispered to Xiao Ju: "Thank you!" Without further explanation, I got in the car and started the motor.
Xie Meina shouted through the car window, with red circles in her eyes: "Xiaoju, you have to remember to go see me!" ”
"Don't worry! I will! Xiao Ju replied affirmatively. The reason why she is so sure is because she has a certain understanding of the future of Huaxia, and at this time, she has a certain degree of entanglement about whether she will find a way to develop abroad or stay in China next.
According to her true thoughts, the son is not ugly to the mother, no matter whether Huaxia will be poor or rich in the future, this is the place where she was born and raised, but she has some heart palpitations about the catastrophe of the ten years after liberation, not to mention that her mother and Zhuang Zhuang will definitely not agree to leave this land!
The local complex is a knot that any Chinese descendant cannot erase, so that they leave their hometown background to a completely unfamiliar living environment, and live with people of completely different races, for Niang and Zhuangzhuang, it must also be a pain!
In the end, Xiaoju took back her divergent thoughts, and now this land is still in war, what do you want to do in the long run?
The military off-road vehicle carrying the three members of the Xie family quickly drove away from Xiao Ju's sight, and the sky was still bright at this time. Xiao Ju was stunned for a while, and then entered the small western-style building a little sullenly and closed the door.
Now this house belongs to her, but she doesn't have a sense of joy, the house was full of popularity a moment ago, but it became cool in the blink of an eye. However, the various furnishings in the room have not changed, it seems that people's mood has changed, and the feeling has changed.
It's no wonder that some people live in the Qionglou Academy of Fine Arts, dressed in beautiful clothes, but still don't feel happy. And some people live in poor streets. Eat food and eat vegetables, but smile brightly! Although Xiaoju didn't sleep all night, she didn't feel the slightest sleepiness at this time.
For meeting Xie Meina in the French Concession, and then making friends with Xie Meina. At the same time, with the help of Xie Dad. The problem of identity is solved. This qiē shattered her thoughts. What surprised her the most was that the Xie family decided to leave all the property they couldn't take away, the house, to her. It really touched her.
Father Xie probably didn't expect that his behavior would help Xiaoju a lot. Xiao Ju originally wanted to hide in Wuhan until after the surrender of Japan, and then come out openly, and restore her true identity, and then think of buying a house, and at the same time take her mother, Zhuang Zhuang and her brother-in-law to Wuhan, so that Zhuang Zhuang can go to school, and her mother and brother-in-law will make their own plans.
But now, because of Father Xie's decision, except for Xiaoju's family, which did not stay around, everything else was realized early, which saved her a lot of things. Thinking about the He family who thought he would reach out to himself, Xiao Ju sighed again! Therefore, sometimes it is really difficult to make a decision early on the circumstances of life, when you think that the person who can help you abandons you at an important juncture, and the person you think you need to be careful against is unexpected by you and reaches out to help you.
Because of her emotions, Xiaoju's heart couldn't calm down, so she simply started to clean up from the first floor, and collected all the daily necessities used by Xie Dad, Xie Ma and Xie Meina! It took Xiaoju a day to clean the first and third floors, which is not the usual situation where Xie Ma loves to be clean, and the hygiene of each room is maintained very well.
Now the third floor has become Xiaoju's residence, there is a bedroom on the third floor, a study, this study was originally the place where Xie Meina learned to read and practice calligraphy and painting, so the room is nearly thirty square meters, and the place against the wall is two rows of large bookcases, which are full of all kinds of books from ancient and modern China and foreign countries, all of which were collected and purchased by Xie Dad for his daughter, and now they are all owned by Xiaoju.
The same orientation and size of the room, there is also a room on the second floor, that was originally Xie Dad and Xie Ma's study, there are a lot of books in it, Xiao Ju after reading, found that some are still rare books, Xie Dad said that these things can't be taken away, they are all given to Xiao Ju. Let her keep and treasure it well, you know, some of the unique books were bought back by Father Xie from the Japanese. And those Japanese, naturally, were looted from the hands of the Chinese.
Xiao Ju carefully sorted out the study on the second floor, and finally because most of the books in it were very precious, in order not to lose these precious cultural heritages, Xiao Ju finally received the two large rows of bookcases full of books on the second floor into the large living room of the house in a small space. When you have nothing to do, you can go into a small space and study slowly.
After the bookcase in the study on the second floor was taken away, the whole room seemed very empty, Xiaoju decided to change this room into a bedroom and study, and when it was dawn, she went out to the furniture store to buy a bed and came back, so that Zhuang Zhuang could live.
Waiting for Xiaoju to clean up a qiē, it was already dark, usually when Xie Ma and Xie Meina were there, the whole house looked bright and warm, but now there are only two less, but it makes Xiaoju feel lonely and cold, at this moment, her miss for Niang and Zhuang Zhuang is more like the weeds after the spring rain, growing crazy, and there is no way to stop it.
Xiao Ju sat in the living room on the first floor, which was as bright as day, and was stunned for a while, and decided to spend a few days and add the things he planned to add to the house, and then leave the French Concession and go to Wuhan to have a look.
She still has some worries about Lawson and Aunt Zhang, after all, everyone has stayed under the same roof for so long, and they still have some feelings. At this time, Xiaoju didn't know that Aunt Zhang had already hit the wall and died in order not to fall into the hands of the gendarmes.
Even for Ouyang Xiaohua, she is also sympathetic and merciful, after all, not everyone has a hard bone, and she didn't pay attention to Ouyang Xiaohua taking the gendarmes around to find her and arrest her. has a small space as a solid backing, saying that she was really found by the other party, and she is not afraid.
It's not Our Lady of Xiaoju, because people are selfish, in that case, Ouyang Xiaohua betrayed other comrades in order to survive, which was also expected by Xiaoju.
Even Xiao Ju guessed that Lawson might have calculated it, otherwise, he wouldn't let everyone hide their own things, they didn't need to care about others, and they didn't need to contact each other. In fact, this is a protective measure for comrades who have not betrayed themselves, and it seems that the safety and confidentiality regulations for underground workers are not only strict, but also take into account all kinds of situations.
Xiao Ju, who had a plan, felt hungry at this time, and she remembered that because she was not in the mood, she had been only concerned about hygiene, and she had forgotten to eat all the Chinese food. At this time, the mood improved slightly, and the stomach that had been hungry for a day rebelled angrily.
Xiao Ju went into the kitchen alone and got some food at random, and went up to the study on the third floor to pass the sleepless night. Originally, a person was used to being lonely, and it was not difficult to pass the time, but from loneliness to suddenly having friends who were close to family, and then returning to loneliness, that person would have a deep sense of loss in his heart.
At this time, Xiaoju is this mentality. On the contrary, at this time, because of the sudden departure of Xie Ma and Xie Meina, she came to this era for so long, and for the first time she tasted insomnia and unintentional cultivation.
In the next two days, Xiao Ju was shopping for things, and after adding all the things that needed to be added to the small western-style building, on a sunny morning, she locked the door of the small western-style building, carried a small suitcase, and began to walk towards the gate of the French Concession openly.
At this time, Xiaoju's hair grew longer, she trimmed it into a small part, and then put on a shirt and suspenders, and carried a small suitcase in her hand, which was the most fashionable little gentleman dress in this era.
Xiao Ju slowly moved towards the gate with the flow of people, and there were still Japanese soldiers guarding the gate, but the number of people was obviously much less, and the attitude of verification was not as strict as the last time Xiao Ju hid in the shadows.
Xiao Ju secretly thought, could it be the reason why he went out of the French Concession? But how can we explain the lack of guards? Xiao Ju moved her small body while searching for memories of her past life in her mind.
During this period of time, it should be that Japan not only failed in international aggression, but also in China, the New Fourth Army of the Eighth Route Army under the leadership of the Communist Party persisted in the guerrilla war of resistance for eight years, and the Nationalist Government of Lao Chiang also directly launched large-scale frontal operations, such as the famous Battle of Songhu and Taierzhuang, and the opening of the Yunnan Highway in Burma to receive military aid from the United States, which even allowed 70 percent of Japan's troops to be contained in China.
China's counterattack made Japan's war on this land slow down, and the war in the Pacific region was lost one after another, Japan's domestic resources were very scarce, the population was not large, and the long-term war caused the domestic population, resources, and food to be severely attacked.
If memory serves, Germany had already surrendered on May 8 of this year, while Italy had already announced its withdrawal from the Axis powers on September 3, 1943. At this time, Japan was isolated and helpless in the international community.
After Germany announced its surrender, the United States and the Soviet Union devoted their energies to the war against Japan, and Japan at this time could only be regarded as stubbornly resisting.
Xiao Ju looked thoughtfully at a few Japanese soldiers who were standing lazily in front of the gate of the French Concession, and it seemed that it would not be long before Japan would withdraw from China. It's a pity that the Chinese people, who have been struggling under the iron hooves of Japan for eight years, thought that after Japan surrendered, they could start a normal life, but they didn't expect that what was waiting for everyone would be a civil war.
Xiao Ju frowned a little worriedly, knowing history, but not having the ability to change it, so she could only go with the flow, which was not only a pain for this person, but also a deep helplessness. (To be continued......)
