This house is not a prison number, but a living room, which is quite large, and there are windows on all sides.

The curtains on the windows were not tightened, and the white light of the setting sun was squeezing in through the cracks in the curtains on the west side, and it was stretched diagonally to the tea table.

Dust flew in the light, creating a silent noise in the still air.

On the front wall, there is a large wall clock with a spring bird on the tick, which looks very well-behaved.

There was tea on the table, it was still hot, and the white vapor smoke was also floating, which made Bu Shouru think about it, and Bu Shouru saw her burned sedan chair in the ethereal vapor...... After staying for a while, the door opened, and the company commander and a few soldiers with rifles entered, and first opened the curtains and let in a lot of light, so that the room was suddenly very bright. Later, he walked in front of Bu Shouru in the dazzling light, saying that the Jin Hui Office would arrive immediately, and asked Bu Shouru to be honest.

Bu Shouru ignored it.

The company commander said angrily: "You are light on me, a small company commander, if you dare to do it lightly, you will really live to the end, now the road is being built, the Jin Hui Office says nothing, and the Wang Supervisor listens to the Jin Hui Office." ”

As soon as the company commander finished speaking, several more soldiers hugged a middle-aged man in his early forties into the house.

The middle-aged man did not wear a military uniform, but a Western uniform, with a thick and short neck tie and white leather shoes on his feet.

The company commander and the soldiers raised their hands to salute the middle-aged man, but the middle-aged man didn't look at it, and sat down on the chair opposite Bu Shouru.

Bu Shouru figured out that the middle-aged man must have done it at the Jin Club.

Sure enough, it was the Kim Club.

The company commander kept shouting that it would be done, and pointed to Bu Shouru and said to the middle-aged man: "This is Aunt Bu who instigated the sedan chair men in the city to riot." We went to her house and didn't catch her, we caught it in the Duxiangting Teahouse. ”

Jin Huiban said "oh", cast his eyes over, stared at Bu Shouru, looked at it, his eyes and face were wrong, his brows were furrowed, and he said, "You...... Are you the famous Aunt Bu? Yes? This, why is your face so familiar? Brothers...... Where does my brother seem to have seen you? ”

Bu Shouru didn't pay much attention to Jin Huiban, only inadvertently glanced at Jin Huiban when he entered the house, and then turned around to drink tea.

Hearing what the Jin Club said this, Bu Shouru also went to see the Jin Club Office seriously, and was stunned when he saw it: Which is the Jin Club Office? It is clearly a common brother in the dream, but he is older than in the dream, and there is a scar on his face, which was probably beaten in the more than ten years of battle.

Bu Shouru stood up, stared at Jin Huiban in a daze, and shouted miserably: "Brother Ba ......"

Jin Huiban also stood up, and walked towards Bu Shouru, saying in his mouth: "What brother Ba? The brother's surname is Jin, and his name is Jin Shifu. ”

Bu Shouru didn't believe it: "You lied to me, you ...... You're a brother ......."

Jin Huiban thought about it again, his eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Brother...... Brother remembers, brother has seen you, and indeed he has seen you! See you in the spring of the Xinhai year. At that time, the Qing soldiers in the city were in ...... In arresting brothers, it is you who send your brothers out of the city in a sedan chair......"

When Jin Huiban said this, Bu Shouru also remembered back then.

The revolutionary party was like Brother Ba back then, and it is still like it today, no wonder it is mistaken.

I also remembered that I was sitting in a sedan chair on one left and one right, and I thought about going with the revolutionary party because I was like Brother Ba...... Bu Shouru suddenly asked, "...... You're not Brother Ba? Be...... Was it the revolutionary party back then? ”

Jin Huiban nodded again and again: "Yes, yes!" ”

Bu Shouru was still in a dream, looking at Jin Huiban and still feeling like Brother Ba, and his voice spoke softly: "Then you are not dressed in this foreign dress, you ...... You're like a showman. ”

Jin Huiban smiled: "How can you say that it is like a Xiucai, my brother was originally a Xiucai, and he should pass the township test, but he didn't get into the middle school or go to school, and then he became a revolution." ”

Bu Shouru said: "At that time, you were so bold that you dared to say that the Manchurian court could not grow. ”

Jin Huiban said: "You are not small! Dare to hide the revolutionary party brother in your sedan chair! ”

Then he recalled: "The brother went to the city that day to exercise Liu Xietong, that is, the later Liu Zhenshou envoy started the incident, Liu Xietong was fine at first, but then saw that the uprisings in various parts of Nanyang were old and defeated, so he was afraid, and told the green camp the secret, but after the revolution, he always refused to admit it. The soldiers of the Green Battalion arrested the brother in Liu Xietong's new military camp, and the brother escaped on the way, so he found Ma Lao Wu and saw you. ”

Bu Shouru also seemed to see the scene again, and said: "When I saw you, you were injured, and I could see that it was shot, but I didn't dare to ask." ”

Jin Huiban said: "It's not bad, I'm just afraid that I won't be able to get out of the city." I have to speak my conscience, my brother's life was in the hands of your Aunt Bu at that time. When you and Ma Lao Wu were discussing in the hall, my brother's heart hung on my throat, and if you don't say anything, my brother will be finished......"

Bu Shouru immediately remembered the person who had petitioned for the dead and the sedan chair burned in the open space in front of the governor's mansion, his face changed, the soft light in his eyes was gone, and he sighed blankly: "You...... You are destined to be great, today you are not finished, but I am finished, and it is in the hands of you, the revolutionary......"

Jin Huiban was very embarrassed, he didn't speak for a long time, only paced back and forth in the house, and then waved his hand to drive the company commander and all the soldiers in the house away.

When the company commander left, he had already seen some eyebrows, and he didn't dare to despise Bu Shouru anymore, and after giving a salute to the Jin Huiban, he gave Bu Shouru a serious salute, and he didn't care whether Bu Shouru ignored him or not.

After the company commander and the soldiers left, the Jin Huiban said to Bu Shouru: "Aunt Bu, my brother is sorry for you, brother...... Brother really didn't know that the owner of this city sedan chair was you, even if the fight started in front of the governor's mansion this morning, I didn't know ......"

Bu Shouru asked, "What do you know?" You won't build roads? ”

Jin Huiban said: "If you know, there will be no one in front of the superintendent's mansion, and the superintendent Wang will shoot today, brother...... The brotherhood will stop it, even if it is desperate to die...... ...... will also stop."

Bu Shouru insisted on asking: "Don't talk about this, I only ask you if you build roads?" ”

Jin Huiban thought for a moment: "This brother can't lie to you, Lu ...... The road still needs to be repaired. ”

Bu Shouru's eyes were red, and he couldn't help choking: "Just ...... Is it just for the broken car that your butcher supervised? For...... For it, you ...... You swept my men with your spears, set fire to my sedan chair, and returned ...... And you got me here. You...... Don't you feel that you have lost your conscience? ”

Jin Huiban said carefully: "Aunt Bu, my brother is not afraid that you will be angry, my brother has to say, you are wrong." The brothers built the road not only for the car supervised by the king, but also for the benefit of the country and future generations. After the road is built, the transportation in Shicheng can be convenient, and the place will develop, and there is nothing to talk about without building the road. ”

Bu Shouru stared at Jin Huiban, her eyes filled with tears, and she was full of water: "This ...... What's wrong with this granite road? For thousands of years, we have not been ...... for generations Didn't they all come over like this? ”

Let the tears flow from the sockets of his eyes, hanging on his white face, and said, "You...... You don't know how much I like the granite road in our city, just ...... It's my life. ”

Jin Huiban was also uncomfortable, and took out a handkerchief for Bu Shouru to wipe his tears.

Bu Shouru didn't answer, only sighed, long and short.

Jin Huiban also sighed, sighed and said, "I know that you like it, not because you like it, but also because you like it...... I didn't supervise the one in front of the house. But you can't be more happy. Today, my brother has to bury it, and he has to bury it. It is precisely because the people of the country have walked this old road for thousands of years that they have to change today. The old road mentioned here by brother not only refers to the granite road of a city, but also refers to the thoughts in the minds of the Chinese people. The brothers believe that if China wants to make progress, there is no other way than to follow the path of science and democracy of the Western powers. The brother also often talked about this truth with the king, and the brother said......"

Bu Shouru didn't want to listen, raised his head, interrupted Jin Huiban's words and said: "Don't say it, I'm tired of hearing what you say, I only ask you, you talk about science and democracy, but you also talk about conscience?" ”

Jin Huiban said: "Brothers speak of conscience. Brother, I'm sorry for you, Brother, I'll make amends to my aunt and grandmother now. ”

Bu Shouru wiped away the tears on his face, waved his hand and said, "I don't want to listen to this, you ...... You just say what you want to do in the future! ”

Jin Huiban said: "This is exactly what my brother wants to talk to Aunt Bu and Grandma Bu. When I was talking just now, my brother thought, my brother can't lose to your aunt and grandmother, and my brother wants you to run a foreign car shop in our whole city. The brother and the Wang supervisor have agreed on this matter, and they have also sent people to Japan and Shanghai to set up the first batch of 300 foreign cars, and the name of the car dealer has been raised, called 'Dafa Foreign Car Co., Ltd.', and you will be in charge. ”

Bu Shouru only stared at Jin Huiban, his face was cold, and he was silent.

Jin Huiban said: "Let's say it's a partnership, but in fact, only you have the final say, and the general manager will ...... Just let you be. This brother did it. It's easy to discuss, one from the Wang supervisor, one from your aunt, and ...... And then there's the brother. Brother I'm sorry for you, so ...... So, the brother has thought about it, if the brother doesn't take any of the money for the first year, it's all yours, this ...... Isn't that a conscience? ”

Bu Shouru snorted: "What science, what is it for the benefit of the people, but it turns out that you don't let me travel in a sedan chair, right...... It's trying to make a fortune! ”

Jin Huiban was embarrassed again: "This ...... Where does this begin? Isn't it just to run a car shop for the benefit of the people and the convenience of the people? The foreign car is good! You haven't sat down, you don't know. But the brother sat in Shanghai. Only one person pulled, and ran up on the Shimin dirt road to make a fuss. It is labor-saving to pull and comfortable to sit on, which is really more scientific than a sedan chair. Besides, it's ...... Even if the brother and the king don't get this foreign car dealership, there must be someone else to get it, rather than someone else to get it, it's better for us to get it ourselves......"

Bu Shouru said: "I don't care who gets it, I don't do it anyway." I just want you to give me a piece of land to stand on, don't build the road to Xicheng, let me take my sedan chair on the Mashi Road in Xicheng. ”

Jin Huiban sighed and shook his head: "Grandma, aren't you going to be embarrassed for your brother?" It's not that you don't know that Superintendent Wang has issued a death order to ban the sedan chair, and those who dare to sit in the sedan chair and walk the sedan chair will be arrested. Think for yourself, can my brother promise you this? ”

Bu Shouru forced Jin Huiban: "You can, you are the government affairs council, and the king only listens to you in this matter." ”

Jin Huiban was forced to be anxious, and said stiffly: "Even if you can, my brother will not agree!" You must know that military orders and government orders are not child's play, and they must not be changed! Besides, so many people have died in front of the governor's mansion, so you can't change it! ”

Bu Shouru softened down and begged: "I told you, the granite road will be ...... It's my life, I saved your life back then, and today you can do it...... Can't you change the decree and save my life? ”

Jin Hui said: "Except for this one, my brother promised you, but this one will not work!" Brother and you have said enough, the road must be repaired, today in the whole city, in the future in the province, the whole country! Brother repeat, this is not for the sake of brother's wealth, but for the benefit of the country and future generations! ”

Bu Shouru knew that there was no way to turn things around, so he stayed for a while, and said sadly: "...... That being the case, I don't have anything more to say, Jin Huiban, you ...... Shut me up and punish me. ”

Jin Hui said: "What is this called? Brother, get ready, and set the wine tomorrow night to give you a shock......"

Bu Shouru shook his head: "Don't bother with this, I won't drink your wine!" ”

Jin Huiban said: "Drink or not drink it, please don't invite me, my brother has to be worthy of your Aunt Bu and Grandma, and you can't have a bad reputation without conscience." ”

Bu Shouru nodded: "Okay, I'll go, just take a sedan chair, you can prepare a sedan chair for me!" Eight to lift. ”

Jin Hui was on fire: "You dare to ask me to prepare a sedan chair for you with this forbidden sedan chair?" Brother tell you again, the sedan chair must be banned! Ban! ”

Bu Shouru laughed maniacally: "Forbidden? Joke! My aunt and grandmother came to Shicheng in a sedan chair, and my aunt's life was tied to the sedan chair! Which of you can ban it? Aunt and grandmother, I don't do dark things, I will make it clear to you face to face today, this aunt and grandmother will sit, and from now on I will still sit every day, until the day I die! Sit until the day you condemn me! If you really want to ban it, you have to ask the butcher superintendent to prepare a spear and ban it with a spear! ”

Jin Huiban decided that Bu Shouru was crazy, and looked at Bu Shouru helplessly at a loss.

Bu Shouru decided that he had finished saying what he should have said, maybe the words of his life had been said, so he no longer went to the Jinhui Office, turned around, walked out of the living room, and suddenly arrived at the tall and solemn gatehouse of the Governor's Mansion.

It's when the sun sets.

The sky in the distance was a brilliant and fiery red, like a fire burning all over the sky.

The wind blew sadly and warmly, whirring, as if with the help of the fire of the setting sun. The open space in front of the governor's mansion was a mess, and the sedan chair seemed to be lit again by the light of the setting sun.

Bu Shouru really heard the sound of "crackling" fire, and felt that everything in heaven and earth was burning, all burning, and everything in the world, including herself, was turned into ashes with wisps of green smoke in this magnificent burning.
