Chapter 7 Cheongsam
Wen Hao has nothing to do at home, Zhao Jingxiang went to work, it's still early to pick up Zhao Jingxiang, Wen Hao closed the door, took out the crossing gift bag he brought when he crossed, and took out the M1911 pistol of the "desert warrior" inside, familiarize yourself with the firearms, after all, it is not a peaceful and prosperous era, there is about to be a war, and the old Shanghai is also a mixed world, not so peaceful, the gun is still the best bodyguard, in his previous life in the country he never brought a gun with a gun, after all, the country was not good at that time, and the gun barrel was strict, Unlike foreign countries that loosen the barrel of the gun, shootings occur at every turn.
But now is the old society is not the new society, there is still a difference between having and not having a gun, plus his gun is stored in a place that others can't think of, and he can take it out at any time to defend himself or kill people, which is very convenient.
Originally, Wen Hao also thought that with his knowledge of later generations, he would not use knives and guns, and he would not do those bloody things, and he would be able to mix well, but as soon as the war broke out, there were no eggs under the nest. It is impossible to live a peaceful life, he wants to live a life of swords and guns in the warehouse, and horses in Nanshan, but the Japanese will not agree.
It seemed that he still had to pick up these things, Wen Hao held the gun in his hand and thought to himself, "Old man, it looks like we want to rest, but someone won't let me rest, but while there is no war yet, hurry up and relax." ”
Wen Hao took good care of the gun, Xiangxin put it back in the box, then put the gun away, looked at the time, and went out to pick up Zhao Jingxiang, although nothing happened in the past two days, Wen Hao still insisted on picking up Zhao Jingxiang.
Sometimes she was late for work, Wen Hao just found a place across the street, squatted on the ground, and waited for Zhao Jingxiang while drawing circles. However, there are a lot of beauties coming in and out of the Santa Ana Ballroom, and Wen Hao is not very boring there.
Wen Hao especially likes to see all kinds of cheongsams worn by those beauties, and Wen Hao likes the elegant appearance of women wearing cheongsam. Especially in the 20s and 30s, cheongsam became the standard dress for Chinese women.
The cheongsam is a combination of Manchu flag clothing and Western clothing culture, which was first popular in Shanghai. Shanghai is a mixture of Chinese and Western, and it is the first to have a Western culture. There are also potential changes in the style of cheongsam.
The cheongsam has changed the old appearance of Chinese women's chest and arms, allowing women's posture and curves to be expressed. It was in line with the atmosphere of the time and made a contribution to the emancipation of women.
The earliest cheongsam was not so close-fitting, such as Zhang Ailing said that "the original cheongsam, cold and square has a puritan style", which is mostly talking about the cheongsam in the early 20s.
The heyday of the cheongsam was in the 30-40s, the cheongsam was more westernized, and the waist and chest provinces made the cheongsam more fitted. It can only be changed in length, fat and thin, and flower gallium.
It was in the 50s just after liberation, when the people were the masters of the country, that the cheongsam entered the homes of ordinary people, and when a Soviet leader visited China, he said that the clothing of the Chinese should reflect the new atmosphere of socialist prosperity, so the government called it like "everyone wears floral clothes", and the cheongsam was brilliant for a while.
But in the 60s and 70s, it was a special period, and the cheongsam was said to be the four olds, "sealed, funded, and repaired". **'s wife wore a cheongsam to visit abroad, and later it was a major crime in a special period. Since then, the cheongsam has completely disappeared from people's sight, and it was only in the 80s that it was salvaged by Western designers.
Someone once said that women in their 60-70s can't wear cheongsam, which is a pity to reflect the curvaceous beauty of women, and at the same time, men can't appreciate women's beautiful figures, and it is also a big loss for men.
Wen Hao squatted there, thinking that at least he didn't have any loss, picking up Zhao Jingxiang in the past two or three days, and seeing all kinds of cheongsam, Wen Hao feasted his eyes, so every time he went to pick up Zhao Jingxiang, he was still willing to go. It's also a pleasure to wait for people and watch beautiful women at the same time.
If Zhao Jingxiang knew that he still had this kind of mind when he picked her up, he would definitely strangle Wen Hao. I will definitely scold him, you come to pick me up, I still want to see other beauties.
Wen Hao looked at the sky, Zhao Jingxiang should have gotten off work at this time, why hasn't she come out yet. At this time, Wen Hao didn't have the heart to appreciate the beauty, and wondered if it was an accident.
Wen Hao got up and walked to the door of the dance hall, and walked to the two Indian Ah San to stop him. Wen Hao was a little impatient, and he didn't bother to explain to the two of them, and stretched out his hand to push them away and was about to break in.
The two Indian Ah San didn't let Wen Hao in, and they didn't let Wen Hao in. At this time, a person came out of the door, grabbed Wen Hao and Indian Ah San, and asked what was the matter.
Wen Hao turned his head and saw that it was the dance hall class that spoke to Zhao Jingxiang last time. Wen Hao looked at it and asked, "Why hasn't my sister gotten off work yet, she usually doesn't get off work early at this time, why can't I wait for her to get off work at the door." ”
Wen Hao was a little anxious in his heart, and the dance hall class took a closer look, it was the student who picked up Zhao Jingxiang at the door that night, and Zhao Jingxiang said that he was her younger brother. If it was usual, he could ignore Wen Hao, but now he still has a good relationship with Zhao Jingxiang's younger brother.
"Hehe, oh we met last time, your Zhao Jingxiang's younger brother, she introduced you to me last time, and your sister is still inside. I'll be off work in a while, but ......," said the ballroom executive.
When Wen Hao heard him say that he was not out of date, his heart suddenly rose. "What's the ......" Wen Hao wondered if there were people who were either rich or expensive who had any bad thoughts about Zhao Jingxiang.
"But what, is someone trying to bully her?" Wen Hao hurriedly asked.
Seeing Wen Hao's anxious appearance, the dance hall master knew that Wen Hao had misunderstood, although this kind of thing also happened in the dance hall, but there were not many such things, so it was said that Zhao Jingxiang was not famous when she first came, but it will be difficult to talk about it in the future. "She's fine, but she did so well today. Be the star of the Santa Ana Ballroom tonight. That's why I didn't leave work as usual. The dance hall class said excitedly to Wen Hao.
Wen Hao was confused by what he said, Zhao Jingxiang is just a dancer here, so she will become a star, is she dancing very well, there are still people who praise her, most likely because someone takes a fancy to her, so they will praise her. If this is the case, she is fine now, and it will be difficult to talk about it in the future, Wen Hao knows that if this is the case, he will find a way to let Zhao Jingxiang leave the dance hall early, otherwise there may be annoyance, if the trouble is for Wen Hao, he is not afraid, but it is different for Zhao Jingxiang, she is a weak woman. Those people have power, money and some are powerful, she is a female character, and it is difficult to get rid of it when she encounters it.
"I want to go in and see my sister, okay?" Wen Hao thought to himself, if you agree to save me trouble, if you don't agree, Wen Hao wants to break in.
"This ......," the ballroom master pondered, "well, you go in and have a look, it's fine." Today's stage is your sister as the protagonist, and your younger brother should also watch it. ”
The more Wen Hao listened, the more confused he became, he didn't expect that Zhao Jing had only been on duty for two days, and someone took a fancy to her and started to praise her, right?
In Wen Hao's heart, Zhao Jingxiang is a beauty, but she doesn't seem to be as outstanding as he thinks. She belongs to the attractive type, and the more she looks at it, the more flavorful she becomes, so Wen Hao wants to let her stay here for a while first, and wait for him to get the money before letting her come out, otherwise there is no way to persuade her not to do this business.
However, the dance hall master let him in to have a look, which means that she is still in the dance hall, at least there is no danger now. Even if he let Wen Hao in, Wen Hao didn't refuse, so he wanted to go in with him.
At this time, Zhao Jingxiang ran out of the door, and just saw Wen Hao at the door, "Xiaohao, are you in a hurry?" ”
"Sister, why did you just come out, I'm worried about death outside." Wen Hao saw Zhao Jingxiang's heart let go suddenly.
"Xu Daban is also here. My brother is not causing you trouble. Zhao Jingxiang saw Cheng Hao at the door of the dance hall, plus two relatives who were stopped at the door, guessed that Wen Hao saw that he had not come out for a long time, and he was a little anxious to go in to find her, it seemed that there was no one at the gatekeeper and he entered.
"No, it's just that your brother didn't get off work as usual, so he was in a hurry and wanted to go in to find someone, but they didn't let him in. I saw it, and was about to take him in to find you, when I saw you come out. Okay, you can rest assured that your sister is out. I said it was fine. Taipan said with a smile.
"Sister, why did you just come out, is there something wrong?" Wen Hao said with some concern.
"It's not a big deal, let's talk about it when we get home." Zhao Jingxiang said excitedly to Wen Hao. , Looking at Zhao Jingxiang's excited appearance, Wen Hao thought to herself what made Zhao Jingxiang so excited, it didn't seem to be a bad thing, at least not in her heart.
"Xu Daban, my brother and I went back from work first, thank you for taking care of your brother. If you hadn't waited for him, he would have gotten into trouble again. Zhao Jingxiang turned her head to say hello to the senior class, and then dragged Wen Hao's hand and walked out the door.
"It's not early today, so you should go back and rest early. Bye. Xu Daban replied to Zhao Jingxiang, and also waved his hand to Wen Hao.
When he went out of the door, Wen Hao asked if something had happened, Zhao Jingxiang looked excited, and seemed to be very proud.
"We'll tell you slowly when we get home. Anyway, I was really happy today. Zhao Jingxiang clenched her fist and waved it vigorously.
Wen Hao knew that something must have happened when he saw this, but Zhao Jingxiang just didn't say anything now, which made Wen Hao's heart even more anxious.
"Sister, what's going on, say it quickly, don't hang people." Wen Hao urged.
Zhao Jingxiang didn't have Wen Hao's taste, but when Wen Hao said this, she had the intention of hanging his taste. Just laughing is not talking. The expression of the face is to make you anxious and make you feel angry.
Wen Hao was angry and laughed, angry that he had been worried for a long time just now, but now she is hanging your mouth, and she is smiling Zhao Jingxiang is like this, she is naughty and cute. It's not like before, worrying about life.
Seeing that this is not a bad thing, so Wen Hao knew that the more anxious he was, Zhao Jingxiang didn't say it, and it was best to ignore her and not ask her at this time.
