Chapter 15: The Death in Full Swing (8)
Her fingers seemed to be unconscious, tapping the keys one by one...... It's not in tune, but like a big raindrop falling on a plantain leaf in the middle of the night, and the sound is clear.
Er Yi's loud voice called the second sister-in-law, Jingyi stopped her hand, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly.
She closed the lid and stood up, just in time to see Tao Xiang looking at her.
Her gaze was briefly linked to his.
Or did she turn her face away first...... Although she couldn't see anything clearly from such a distance, Tao Xiang's gaze still made her feel slightly suffocated.
"Seven less, telegram." Cen Gaoying returned with a stack of electronic newspapers in his hand.
Tao Xiang was lighting a cigarette, and Tao Si took a cigarette from behind him and lit it himself. Tao Xiang glared at him, he smiled and said, "I see that your addiction to smoking is getting bigger and bigger." Take it easy, pay attention to Jingyi and teach you a lesson. ”
Tao Xiang snorted and flipped through the telegram.
Tao Si frowned when he saw him, I don't know if the content of the telegram made him upset, and he didn't care about him, and when he turned around and saw Jingyi coming, he smiled and said: "Yamei said that Cersei doesn't like to play the piano for a while, and she doesn't move, so the piano is about to rust." ”
"The tone is a little inaccurate. It's time to get a tuner to tune it up. Jingyi smiled.
"Your ears are so good?" Tao Si was surprised.
Yamei happened to come over, and when she heard it, she couldn't help but smile: "The eyes are not good, but of course the ears must be good." ”
Jing Yi smiled and said nothing. Qiu Wei brought her handbag over. She picked it up, and when she walked out, she saw that Tao Xiang was still talking to Cen Gaoying there, so she asked Eryi: "Eighth sister, your good friend Ming Jiaojiao, do you also want to continue studying?" ”
"Yes. She went to study at the Higher Normal School. Why did the seventh sister-in-law think of her? Er Yi asked curiously.
"Oh, I said that day that I wanted to hold a celebration for you and invite them to come." Jingyi said.
"Prom? Okay. They're all fun-loving. Seventh sister-in-law, can we do it when we go back? Er Yi happily held Jingyi, and Yamei called her to get into the car, "I'm with the seventh brother and seventh sister-in-law." ”
Yamei smiled and got into the car first.
Er Yi sat opposite Jingyi and talked about this topic with great interest.
Jing Yi looked at her as if she had completely forgotten the unhappiness of the morning, and she was also embarrassed.
Then Tao Xiang got in the car, and Er Yi happily said to Tao Xiang: "Seventh brother, seventh sister-in-law said that she would hold a graduation ball for us when she went back." Brother Qi will also come when the time comes, and many of our classmates will worship you very much...... Seventh sister-in-law? Okay, right? ”
"Yes." Jingyi said softly.
She took her pocket watch and glanced at the time.
"The seventh sister-in-law is approved, then the seventh brother will come to participate when he is free." Er Yi smiled and winked at Tao Xiang.
Tao Xiang glanced at Jingyi beside her, she sat quietly on the side and didn't speak. Only then did Er Yi feel that the atmosphere was not quite right, and seeing that the two of them were silent, he also suppressed his voice. I only endured it for a while, but I still couldn't help but speak.
"Brother Seven, I don't want to leave home to go to college." Eryi said in a low voice.
Jingyi looked at Eryi.
"I don't adapt to the climate in Nanjing. If you go to Beiping, it's far from home. It's better to apply for the School of Law and Politics. In the future, I want to be a newspaper reporter. Er Yi said, clenching his fist, "The kind with a conscience." ”
"Have you figured it out?" Tao Xiang asked.
"Hmm. Just decided. Brother Seven, don't be busy scolding me...... Although I am not good enough to study, I have seven sisters-in-law at home. If there is anything I don't understand in my homework, my seventh sister-in-law will always help me. Seventh sister-in-law, oh? "Eryi leaned on Jingyi and sprinkled coquettishly.
"Do you want to go to the university hall and bring a scholar with you?" Tao Xiang asked.
Er Yi stuck out his tongue and said, "Seventh brother, you are really fierce." What about me leaving home to study, and I don't even have a scholar...... Seventh sister-in-law, you can help me speak. ”
Jing Yi glanced at Tao Xiang and didn't open his mouth. He turned back to look at Eryi, but still didn't speak.
She always felt that Eryi's decision was not just out of environmental considerations.
Er Yi was looked at by her and turned her eyes away.
Tao Xiang said: "If you think about it, so be it." ”
"Thank you, Brother Seven." Er Yi said.
Tao Xiang frowned and said, "No matter where you study, you must always work hard." No matter how messy it is, you can't explain it anywhere. ”
"I understand, Brother Seven." Er Yi was a little excited, as if he had received some assurance from Tao Xiang, and couldn't help but clap his hands.
Tao Xiang also understands Er Yi, presumably what Er Yi thinks at this time is that since she said so, she can study with peace of mind in the past few years...... He cleared his throat, "Little kid temper." ”
Er Yi smiled, and simply came over, and was about to climb Tao Xiang's neck to be coquettish.
Tao Xiang was very embarrassed by her like this, and said, "Don't sit down yet!" ”
Jing Yi watched their brother and sister be so happy, although Tao Xiang's expression seemed to be teased by Er Yi and did not seem very pleasant, she still felt that this was very good...... At this time, there was a car on the side overtaking, and the speed was very fast. Ma Xingjian was a little caught off guard, but fortunately he was skilled in the car and avoided to the side. The car passed all the way, whistling. Ma Xingjian has always been calm, and he couldn't help but say, "It's too fast, it's not an escape, I'm not afraid of accidents."
"Maybe it's just running for your life." Er Yi joked.
Jingyi was a little dizzy by the car suddenly swaying left and right, and then heard the horn of the car behind her, and she couldn't help but be upset. The car honked a few times, and simply pressed the long whistle, and the harsh sound spread far away. Jing Yi couldn't help the sound and glanced back.
The road was not wide, and there were guards in front and behind their cars, and it was obviously not the escort cars behind them that honked their horns.
"What's going on?" Tao Xiang asked.
Ma Xingjian, who was driving, said: "Look at the flag hanging, it's a navy car. ”
Tao Xiang said: "Headquarters? ”
"Not really." Ma Xingjian immediately said, "Seven less, let it or not?" He looked at Tao Xiang's face.
"Let's." Tao Xiang said.
Ma Xingjian looked at Tao Si's car in front of him, and sure enough, he slowed down with a tacit understanding and avoided it slightly. He said: "His Majesty, the commander of the army, is quite strict, and the commander of the navy, Chief Pan, is really ...... Ahem. ”
Er Yi watched the car whizz by, compared to the one just now, it was almost close to their car flying past. Immediately afterwards, they even heard the sound of metal rubbing, and it seemed that they had rubbed against the car in front of them while overtaking.
Tao Xiang's brows tightened, but he didn't make a sound.
"I've scraped the car of the second less." Ma Xingjian said.
"Can't run away from him." Tao Xiang said, reading a car number.
"Yes. Noted down. Ma Xingjian agreed, comprehending Tao Xiang's meaning.
Jing Yi looked at Tao Xiang, he was still sitting like that, and he didn't know when he would see the car that was shaking like a shadow. Tao Xiang turned his head to look at her and said, "There may be trouble ahead later." ”
Jingyi nodded.
I don't know what kind of trouble it is, but looking at it like this, I can't avoid it.
The car slowed down.
I can clearly hear the sound of cars colliding ahead.
Jing Yi's heart jumped suddenly, and the bag in her hand fell to the ground.
She was just about to pick it up, but Tao Xiang picked up the small bag from her feet and handed it to her.
"Don't panic." Tao said, "It's not a big deal. ”
"Nope." She said, her face flushed. It was a small thing, and she shouldn't be afraid, but for some reason her heart was beating a little uncontrollably.
Tao Xiang looked at her and nodded again.
Er Yi snorted and said, "I'll just say it, the tabloid will only talk about some things and talk nonsense...... Chief Pan's youngest son, eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, smoking, proficient in everything, dared to go on the flower boat in uniform. I heard that I had a big fight with a son who was Fei for a woman, and it was a miasma. For this matter, Chief Suo specially admonished Commander Pan, saying that he was not strict with his godson and his majesty was too lenient. Even if you look at the admonition, it doesn't work. ”
"Where did you hear that?" Tao Xiang asked Eryi. He looked ahead, and Tao Si's car did not stop.
Er Yi saw that his brother was not unhappy, so he said, "Hey, what did you do when you went to those drinking parties and balls, seventh brother?" Is it just drinking and dancing? Bai Wenmo will talk to people about these interesting things...... I'll listen to it on the side, and that's enough. I don't know who they are, but it's a joke. I also told my second brother yesterday that our Northwest Army is not good or bad, at least no one in the Northwest Army dares to get drunk and smash other people's flower boat brothels, right? Also, who in the Northwest Army dares to drive a jeep all over the streets to provoke chickens and dogs? ”
Tao Xiang was silent, and when he looked at Er Yi again, there was a smile in his eyes.
"Seventh brother, if you want to teach us such a lesson in our realm." Er Yi said.
"You're just unforgiving." Tao Xiang said slowly.
Er Yi was not convinced, but also smiled: "Yes, that's what my mother said, you don't need to bring a shotgun when you go into the mountains to fight tigers, just bring your mouth?" Seventh brother, it doesn't matter if you bury me at this time, it's true to go back and help me say a few kind words - or I'll pester the seventh sister-in-law and let the seventh sister-in-law say it for me. ”
Jingyi was listening to their brother and sister and couldn't help but want to laugh.
Er Yi saw a smile on her calm face, a layer of pink on her snow-white face, and was caught by her like this, and sighed: "Seventh sister-in-law, if you are not my seventh sister-in-law, I will also say it...... I've followed you these days, and I've seen a big scene, but no one is as good-looking as my seventh sister-in-law. ”
Er Yi grinned and stuck out his tongue at Jingyi. It's innocent again.
"Brother Qi should say that I don't wear a thousand clothes, and I don't wear any sycophants...... I mean really! It's that Pan Xiong and Fei Fazu, aren't they jealous and fighting? I heard that with a woman surnamed Jin...... Her sister. It's a Japanese. She was there last night, Bai Wenmo pointed out to show me. The woman surnamed Jin, although she can also be called a beauty, is not very good. Where can her sister be seen? These two young masters are too shallow-eyed. ”
Er Yi said, Tao Xiang and Jingyi just listened, and they didn't make a sound.
