Chapter 332: Preparing for Refuge
After Lawson's meticulous arrangements for Xiao Ju were sighed by Chang Fugui, Xiao Ju listened to the thought of what his own body's own father Hu Daring did in Zhengzhou, and couldn't help but feel a lot of feelings in his heart, and at the same time peeked at Xiao Ju Niang who was sitting next to her, and it was really as she guessed, and her mother's face showed a look of shame and gratitude. Ten have**, like Xiaoju, she also thought of how Hu Daring treated herself and a pair of children!
Uncle, I wonder if you can help my brother find a good school? Xiaoju is not coquettish, not to mention listening to Rosen's words to come to Shanghai to find Chang Baogui, isn't it also to find a backer? In this way, you don't have to hide in a poor mountain village to spend your life! It's just that like their family, either women or children, in this era of wars, people are not able to make a living, and officials and soldiers are bandits, if there is no backer, no matter how rich they are, they dare not show it, then they can only live the life of the lowest class people in a place like Shanghai.
No problem! If you don't say it, I'll do it! But Xiaoju, what are your own plans? Your godfather said in the letter that you are very good at medicine! It's a medical genius! Chang Baogui smiled at Mimi's way. Although what he said was a declarative sentence, the tone was questionable! After all, Xiaoju's appearance and age are too deceptive. And when Yang Liu heard Chang Baogui's words, a pair of apricot eyes widened, looking at Xiaoju in disbelief.
I would like to take a break and learn about the situation in Shanghai! Xiao Ju pondered for a while before looking at Chang Bao Guidao with a cautious face.
Xiaoju, the situation in Shanghai is not good! Since the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the takeover of Shanghai by the Nationalist Government, one major event after another has occurred, making Shanghai's shape more and more turbulent. I'm wondering if I should let your aunt and a few children avoid going abroad too! The expression on Chang Baogui's face darkened, and a layer of melancholy floated up.
What about you, sir? Yang Liu listened to Chang Baogui's words, and his eyes were full of worry and struggle. She knew that Chang Baogui had been worrying about this matter all this time, he was patriotic and didn't want to leave his country! However, they are afraid that the national government's finances and economy will collapse completely, and the financial order of the entire country will fall into chaos. China's economy will also collapse completely, and the lives of the Chinese people will also be in trouble, and their industries and assets in China will also be in trouble.
Yang Liu's idea was for the whole family to move to Hong Kong with their assets, after all, Hong Kong was now leased to China by the British government, and was not affected by the mainland economy and war. And they don't have to be far from the land. And it's easy to come back. But Chang Baogui didn't want to leave, he just wanted her to take her three sons to Hong Kong or the United States, while he stayed in China and looked at the shape of the country, but how could she be relieved? She doesn't know how the domestic shape shì is, just the shape of Shanghai. Sooner or later, something big will happen! If the head of the family has something, how can she live with three sons in a woman's family?
Uncle, if Shanghai's shape is really so bad, I think my brother's enrollment should be delayed! Xiao Ju did not recklessly open her mouth to Chang Baogui, in her opinion, Chang Baogui said this to her, it may be that this matter has been pressed on his heart during this time, and he just wants to say it to relieve the psychological pressure. You must know that they have only met for the first time, and because of Luo's father's relationship, it is impossible to get close all at once. So Xiao Ju thought about it for a while. put forward the request that there is no need to find a school for Zhuang Zhuang for the time being.
When Chang Baogui heard Xiaoju say this, he looked at her with some surprise, but he didn't expect that his cousin's goddaughter was a keen and decisive girl, and as his cousin said, she was not an ordinary girl.
Uncle, don't worry about us! If the shape of Shanghai is really not as good as you say, then our family will definitely leave Shanghai, and if the stay in Changhai is short, my brother Zhuangzhuang will not need to go to school in Shanghai! Xiao Ju saw Chang Baogui's expression of wanting to say and stopping. Busy with a little explanation.
Don't stay in Shanghai? So where are you going? Chang Baogui didn't react for a while, and his mind was still stuck in the matter entrusted to him by his cousin's letter and telegram, in addition to taking care of Xiaoju's family's life in Shanghai, he also had to help Xiaoju's family get a new identity and settle down in Shanghai.
Master, why don't you let Xiao Ju and the four of us go to Hong Kong together, I think Xiao Ju and Zhuang Zhuang are about the same age as the second and third children of our family, and when they arrive in Hong Kong, let them all go to the same school! Then let the three brothers take care of them! As for me, I can also be with Aunt Liu! Yang Liu suddenly interjected with excitement on his face.
Xiaoju, what do you think? As for whether to go to Hong Kong or to the United States, it's up to you! Chang Baogui's eyes lit up because of Yang Liu's mention, and he looked at Xiaoju with an expectant look on his face. The problem that has been bothering him for so long is that if Yang Liu is allowed to go to Hong Kong or the United States alone with his four children, while he stays in Shanghai, he really can't feel at ease. After all, Yang Liu is a woman, although she also studied at Yenching University back then, but after all, she is also a young lady and has not experienced the wind and rain outside, how can he put his mind at ease?
But if Yang Liu is allowed to take the four children to follow the people of the Chang family, when he thinks of the bad things of the Chang family, they are so intrigued in peacetime, and they fight openly and secretly for the sake of winning small profits. What's more, now it's equivalent to taking refuge in the family?
Chang Baogui knows that the difference in the economic situation of each family in the family is not small, with Yang Liu's simple nature, with those people, won't he be calculated to death? And in case he is unlucky, with those people, it is a question whether the little assets that Yang Liu took away can be kept! I finally broke away from that family, and this little family business that I have worked hard for so many years to earn cannot be eaten by those wolves who have long been disgruntled! Otherwise, the life of his wife and son will be miserable!
And let Yang Liu leave with some familiar business partners or friends, Chang Baogui is also not at ease. How beautiful Yang Liu looks, he knows very well in his heart, he is not around, Yang Liu is a lonely woman with three children in a strange place, when something happens, there is really no way to ask for help!
But Yang Liu with his three sons and Xiaoju's family doesn't have to worry about this. From Fugui's letter, it can be seen that Fugui values and appreciates Xiaoju and her family very much. And the rich escape experience of Xiaoju's family just makes up for the simplicity of Yang Liu's life. And his own wealthy economy made up for the embarrassment of Xiaoju's family, and the two families depended on each other, which also made him go for so long. At this time, Chang Baogui didn't know that the value of the gold ring and jade ring in Xiao Ju's small space was already several times that of his assets.
This Xiaoju felt that something was wrong under the overly eager eyes of Chang Baogui and his wife, but he couldn't sort it out. The only doubt is that even though Rosen is Chang Baogui's cousin, he hasn't seen each other for many years, right? And although she came to the door in the name of Rosen's goddaughter, she had never met each other, and she had never been in contact with or heard of it in the past, why did she have such a happy room when she met for the first time?
It's no wonder that Xiao Ju, a big capitalist like Chang Baogui, can keep his own assets in the chaos and continue to make money, whether it is to make a fortune or legitimate interests, this is not something that ordinary people can do, like this kind of person shouldn't be deep-minded and only trust friends and relatives?
Xiaoju, although I haven't met your godfather for many years, we still have information exchanges! A lot of your scarce supplies are still available to me. Chang Baogui has been dealing with all kinds of people for many years, how can he not see the reason for Xiaoju's hesitation and can't guess it? Immediately explained indirectly.
That's it! Xiaoju smiled clearly, but no longer bothered about the reason why Chang Baogui did this, but said cheerfully, then let's go to Hong Kong first! If Hong Kong is not good, it should not be too late to transfer from Hong Kong to the United States!
Good! I'll ask someone to help you go through the formalities of going to Hong Kong immediately! Yang Liu, why haven't the three boys come back yet? You keep them from going to school this afternoon! Hurry up and let them clean up their things! Don't set off, still noisily looking for something! As soon as Chang Baogui heard Xiao Ju's words, his nervousness when waiting for Xiao Ju's answer was suddenly swept away, and he commanded Yang Liu, who was sitting next to him, with a relaxed and happy smile on his face.
Xiaocui, did you go outside the door to see if the young masters came back? Yang Liuchao, who had been standing in a corner of the living room and observing everyone's needs, shouted.
Be! Madam! Xiaocui has been standing in the living room, and she can hear the conversation between Chang Baogui and Xiaoju clearly, and at this time her heart is also a little anxious, it seems that Shanghai can't stay, I don't know if Mrs. wants to bring a domestic helper? When his own man deserted the army, he died on the way. If it hadn't been for the kind lady, he and his daughter would have starved to death on the road.
Xiaocui thought that now that her wife was going to Hong Kong, if she didn't bring herself over, and the old man would also leave, how would she survive in Shanghai with a girl in her teens? No, I will quietly beg Mrs. to see if Mrs. can take her and her daughter to Hong Kong together, anyway, I can endure any hardship for my daughter! Xiao Cui thought of her daughter, who was studying in the same school as the young masters, and secretly made up her mind in her heart.
