Chapter 22: The Two Daughters Compete

Without further ado, Chen Zikun was about to ask the maid to go out to call a foreign car, but Yao Yilei greeted directly: "Ah Fu, pick up the car." Then I saw Ah Fu, the old driver of the Yao Mansion, come out of the south room, took off his hat and said respectfully: "Hello, uncle." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Why are you? ”

Yao Yilei said: "Why can't it be him, my parents went to Tianjin, and the car is idle anyway, Ah Fu used to be with me, just to drive for us, are you unhappy?" ”

"Where, good." Chen Zikun was busy.

Speaking of which, Ah Fu is a witness to the love between him and Yao Yilei, and during his exile, the letters sent to Yao Yilei were kept by Ah Fu, so Chen Zikun is still very grateful to him.

Yao Qizhen's newly bought British Rover sedan was falsely bought by his daughter and became the private car of Chen Mansion, the two got in the car and went straight to the hair alley, and when they came to the gate of the depot without much effort, they saw that the yard was empty, there was no coachman, and even Baoqing, who was usually guarding the door, was gone.

Chen Zikun's heart was cold, and he thought something was wrong, so he went in and shouted twice, and Xing'er came out of the upside-down room and said, "Yo, Da Kunzi is back from a business trip, you are looking for Baoqing, he went to the sports car." ”

"The shopkeeper still sports the car himself?" Chan was a little puzzled.

Xing'er said: "The outside world is chaotic, the foreign car business is so good, one day can catch up with the past three days, originally a big son's business, people are willing to pay five cents, Baoqing can't hold back, personally out of the horse, this army is chaotic, what can be done in case something happens, Da Kunzi, if you see him, you can help me persuade two sentences." ”

Chen Zikun couldn't cry or laugh, the order was chaotic, people were busy running away, and the foreign car was turned into a fragrant dumpling, but he was relieved that there was no accident in the car factory, and he told Xing'er a few words to go out, and suddenly saw Guo'er coming out of the backyard, dressed neatly in student clothes, Xing'er hurriedly stopped him: "What are you going to do?" It's not good to read at home. ”

Guo'er said: "I watched the excitement, and I heard that the people who were making trouble went to the president's house, and there were still people singing on stage at the mouth of Dongchang Hutong." ”

Xing'er angrily picked up the broom and hit: "There is chaos outside, you can make less trouble for me, go back quickly." ”

Guo'er went back stupidly, Xing'er lost the broom and smiled bitterly: "My younger brother has not been worrying since he was a child. ”

Chen Zikun said: "Don't take it to heart, it's not a bad thing to like to join in the fun, so what, let's go first, and ask him to call me when Baoqing comes back." ”

"Done." Xing'er sent them out of the gate, drove more than ten meters away, and saw Guo'er jumping off the wall, moving agile like a monkey.

"Stop" Chen Zikun said, Ah Fu stepped on the brakes, pressed the horn, Guo'er looked back, grinned, Chen Zikun probe asked, "Where to go?" ”

"Dongchang Hutong."

"Get in the car."

"Okay!" Guo'er pulled the car door and jumped up, and Yao Yileiqi said: "No, do you really want to go to Dongchang Hutong?" You're joining in the fun. ”

Chen Zikun's eyes narrowed: "Lei Lei, do you remember four years ago, we watched the excitement on Chang'an Street, and then followed the students who marched to Zhaojialou and witnessed the fire with their own eyes. ”

Yao Yilei said: "Of course I remember, it was because of that fire that we were separated, otherwise we would have been together a long time ago." ”

Chen Zikun said: "I don't mean that, I mean, the fire accelerated the demise of Duan Qirui's government, and today's turmoil may lead to Li Yuanhong's resignation, this is a political drama, we can't miss it." ”

Guo'er interjected: "That's different, the May Fourth Movement was initiated by patriotic students, but the demonstrations outside Dongchang Hutong were made by military officers and police officers, as well as the so-called civic group, which are completely different in nature." ”

Chen Zikun said solemnly: "But the effect is the same, the government is already terminally ill, every time it is tossed, it is to push the country to the edge of the cliff by half a step, what we can do is to witness history." ”

Guo'er is only a middle school student, and on weekdays, adults at home always treat him as a child and don't discuss politics with him, but now Chen Zikun talks about political topics with him on an equal footing, which makes him quite excited and has a sense of pride.

Yao Yilei couldn't listen to it anymore: "Don't you just want to watch the excitement, talking so much irrelevant." ”

Chen Zikun said: "By the way, to put it bluntly, I just love to watch the parade, what's the matter? ”

Yao Yilei gave him a blank look and stopped talking.

Dongchang Hutong is in the east of the Forbidden City, there is a big mansion in the north of the east entrance road of the Hutong, in the early years it was the residence of the Manchu Qing Dynasty minister Ronglu, after the Republic of China, President Yuan spent 100,000 oceans to buy the house and give it to Li Yuanhong, and since then it has become Li Yuanhong's mansion.

Today's Dongchang Hutong is particularly lively, surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and the black pressure is full of heads, but there are three teachings and nine streams, but there are no students, Guo'er is right, the protagonist of this movement has nothing to do with college students.

There is also a stage in the distance, a person with a Tianjin accent is giving a speech on it, and there are people applauding below every sentence, and the loudest thing is a few good men with big shoulders and round arms, showing a wide slap and protecting his heart, with a face of rivers and lakes.

Chen Zikun sneered: "It's really a matter of being impressed by the three days, and the gangsters in Beijing have begun to care about politics." ”

"In order to save the country, I have to ask Li Shi to quickly come to his senses and abdicate on the same day to make way for the virtuous." After the man finished the last sentence, he raised his arms and shouted: "Li Yuanhong step down!" The noise was loud and loud, and some people whistled and cursed loudly, and the gates of Loei were closed and there was no response.

Someone brought a basket of rotten eggs, everyone smashed them all together, there was a mess in front of the gate of Loei, the ruffians and hooligans applauded, and the commotion sounded, Yao Yilei couldn't help but say angrily: "No matter how you say that the president is also the head of state, how can you allow these people to bully like this, where are all the people in the Jingshi Police Department?" ”

Chen Zikun said: "If you can't pay the salary, the police will strike early." ”

Yao Yilei said: "Then no one cares about these guys?" ”

Chen Zikun said: "They are all invited by Cao Kun and Cao Laoshuai to act, who dares to manage, who can manage." ”

Yao Yilei stopped talking, and Guo'er didn't speak when she looked at the chaotic situation outside the car window.

In the distance, several people climbed on the telephone pole and cut the telephone line connecting Loei and the outside world, and a burst of applause broke out below, Chen Zikun couldn't stand it anymore, and asked Ah Fu to drive away, and there was no more speech along the way, Guo'er looked out the window sideways, as if thinking about something.

……

Back at the Chen Mansion, as soon as he entered the gate, Chen Zikun had an ominous premonition, and sure enough, the maid stepped forward and said, "Master, madam, there is a guest at home." ”

"Oh, who's coming?" Yao Yilei asked casually, she knows a lot of people in her social circle in Beijing, although she is not as popular as Lu Xiaoman and Lin Huiyin, she is also one of the most famous ladies in high society, and it is common for people to visit her family.

The maid looked at Chen Zikun and stopped talking.

Chen Zikun suddenly understood, no problem, let's go hard, came to the living room of the inverted room, and sure enough, I saw two people sitting in the room, Jian Bing and Li Yaoting, with a few large suitcases on the ground, obviously just getting off the train.

"Beijing is so backward that it doesn't even have running water." Jian Bing was holding the bowl in his hand and was muttering to Li Yaoting, when he suddenly found that Chen Zikun had come in, so he got up and said, "You're back." ”

Yao Yilei's face immediately changed, and she said coldly: "Who is she?" ”

Chen Zikun said: "Her surname is Shen, her name is Jianbing, and she is a ...... I met in Shanghai."

"Confidante, didn't I say it, let you hurry up and dismiss those warblers and swallows, why are they all coming to the door." Yao Yilei is everyone's best girl, she didn't go crazy in public, her two eyes looked at Jian Bing up and down, first looked at her stomach, there was no obvious sign of bulge, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at her appearance, figure, temperament, and dress, and her heart hung again.

Jianbing is a famous prostitute in Shanghai, Shanghai is the first international metropolis in the Far East, far from Beijing, Tianjin, Hankou these cities can be compared, Shanghai's fashionable people's dress has always been to keep up with Europe and the United States, leading the trend of East Asia, Shanghai's popular clothing styles, Beijing has to lag behind three months to keep up with the trend, Jianbing is a role that spends money like flowing water, has always spared no effort in the line, coupled with natural beauty, acquired cultivation, that temperament, that appearance, to say a word of immodesty, it is not an exaggeration to crown Jinghua.

Yao Yilei lived in Shanghai for a period of time in her childhood, but she grew up in Beijing as a girl, and her gestures are full of Beijing girls' style, honest and atmospheric, dare to love and hate, plus she was born in an official eunuch family, and she was used to growing up by her parents since she was a child, and she thought she was the proud daughter of the sky, and she was unhappy enough to suddenly see a woman who pressed her in every way, and this person was still her rival in love, so it was even more intolerable.

"Let her go." Miss Yao said with a tiger face.

"Don't make a fuss, it's all family." Chen Zikun didn't have any confidence at all, after all, Jian Bing came too suddenly, but it was impossible for him to drive Jian Bing away.

"She's not leaving, right, I'll go." Yao Yilei has so much in her mouth, and she doesn't move under her feet, she just wants to squeeze this beautiful girl and let her know how to get out of here.

"Miss Yao, listen to me." Li Yaoting stepped forward with a shy face and interjected, Miss Yao was on the fire, and she didn't leave him any face: "Xiao Shunzi, right, now I'm also wearing a suit and on the stage, right?" Yao Yilei sneered, "When you were a messenger at the Six Nations Hotel, you didn't take my reward less, why are you helping outsiders talk now." ”

Li Yaoting smiled and said, "That's right, thanks to Miss Yao still remembering me, it's not just ......."

"Do you have your share here?" Yao Yilei coldly grabbed the white road.

Chen Zikun couldn't help it, and said angrily: "This is my brother, why can't I speak, this is my home." ”

Yao Yilei nodded: "Okay, brothers are like siblings, women are like clothes, Chen Zikun, you can do it, I'll go." ”

After saying that, she turned around and left, no wonder she was so angry, seeing that she was about to get married, and suddenly her husband's former concubine came to the door, and this kind of thing could not be tolerated by any woman.

Chen Zikun regretted it a lot, but because he was not able to accept his face, he could only watch Yao Yulei go out.

"Sister stays." Jianbing said.

Yao Yilei stopped, but she didn't turn around, this is her home field, so she won't give up easily.

"It's me who should go, I'm sorry to cause you trouble." I don't know when, Jian Bing had already carried his luggage, and after saying this, he didn't look at Chen Zikun, and dragged the heavy suitcase away.
