Qiao Zhicai slept sweating, and the next day he was much better.

He endured dizziness and nausea with a strong spirit, got up and blew the sea breeze. thought to himself, the third child had never said that the ocean-going running ship was so offended. Thinking of having to sit on the boat for half a month, Qiao Zhi felt that he had nothing to love.

There is no love in life, how can you solve your worries?

Qiao Lijie bought a hot milk sandwich at the restaurant and carefully brought it back to his second brother. From afar, I saw the second brother, who should be sick, holding the door with one hand and his waist with the other. Frivolously chatting with two young girls in the warehouse, laughing with full of energy.

Qiao Lijie listened to his nonsense slowly, and when he heard a certain amount, he turned and walked away, throwing the sandwich and milk into the sea.

Qiao Zhicai is still healthy, and he is used to vomiting on the boat for a few days.

He is funny and humorous, and he is willing to spend money. Soon, I caught up with a few international student ladies. These young ladies are all daughters of wealthy families, because the family has a few spare money. deliberately left foreign gilding, but most of them have a playful temperament.

Among them, there is a Miss Yuqing, who is a very skilled courtesan in the celebrity circle. Within a few days, Qiao Zhicai was overjoyed.

And Qiao Lijie watched coldly and almost blew his lungs. Because he has always been silent and lonely, others cannot see the clues from his face. Only Qiao Zhi knew him a lot, and felt inexplicable, and asked, "Lijie, why are you unhappy!" ”

Lijie couldn't help but be unhappy, Lijie couldn't wait to jump up and immediately discount his dogleg when he saw him chasing the girl cheaply.

That night, Qiao Zhicai drank some wine, danced a few dances in the dance hall, and sent Yuqing back to the room. Miss Yuqing gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek. Qiao Zhicai was so stunned that he almost exploded into fireworks.

Qiao Lijie saw a bright red lip print on his face. The green tendons on the door of the angry head jumped, and he took out the handkerchief and wiped the lipstick mark viciously, and the weight of his hand almost broke Qiao Zhicai's face.

Qiao Zhicai screamed in pain, and held on to the door in a daze. He raised his face and questioned Qiao Lijie. "Third child, are you jealous! Do you want to break my face? ”

Qiao Lijie didn't think he would be jealous, and immediately fought back. "Second brother, I remember you came to accompany me to Boston. How to just have fun. Do you know who this Miss Yuqing is? ”

Qiao Zhicai lowered his head and released his gaze from under his thick eyelashes. smiled and deliberately angered him, "Of course, Miss Yuqing is the daughter of Mr. Guo, a Shanghai industrial tycoon, I don't know." If your brother catches her, then he will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the next life. ”

Qiao Lijie let out a sneer and folded his arms. Condescendingly looked at his brother. "Do you think Mr. Huang will take a fancy to someone like you? You're not really a bank manager, Mr. Kim. ”

Qiao Zhicai didn't like Lijie's high-minded appearance the most. "That's not necessarily. Could it be that your brother is so handsome and chic, can't he get Miss Yuqing's heart? ”

The two parted unhappily, and each felt that the other was unreasonable.

Qiao Lijie's original intention was to persuade the second brother. However, as soon as the words came to their mouths, they all turned into cold sarcasm. He himself was very surprised, and made a deep review of himself. I thought sourly, "Am I jealous?" The second brother will definitely get married and have children in the future. I can't hold him back from getting married, can I? ”

Qiao Lijie thinks that he is sensible, although he admits in his heart that he has cross-border feelings for his second brother. But he was able to stop being polite and not interfere with his freedom.

Qiao Zhicai also regretted quarreling with his younger brother. Thinking angrily, the left and right are just boring to pass the time on the boat. What are you angry with me again?

Does he also like Miss Yuqing? Qiao Zhicai thought about it in wonder, combined with his understanding of the third child, and thought that Qiao Lijie was completely unenlightened in that regard. It is impossible to understand the benefits of women.

Qiao Zhicai secretly thought to himself, if the third child really likes Miss Yuqing, I will match them.

The next day, the brothers continued to maintain a Cold War posture, and neither spoke.

Time passed day by day, and Qiao Zhicai was a mouse that fell into the rice bowl and lingered to play. Qiao Lijie had a black face every day, and stabbed him a few words from time to time. Seeing that Boston is just around the corner, there is still no sign of reconciliation.

What's more, Qiao Lijie secretly wants to rectify the second brother. Even if Qiao Zhicai came to him to laugh, he had a cold face.

On the morning of this day, Qiao Zhicai mobilized all his strength and carefully observed his younger brother's face. It feels like he's in good spirits and it's time to reconcile. So he greeted the familiar international student and invited Lijie to have breakfast together.

Qiao Lijie thought of one thing with him, and accepted the second brother's apology with dignity and arrogance.

Qiao Zhicai has always been very embarrassed in front of him. I don't want to be so calm after many years. The two quarreled, but he was still defeated.

Qiao Zhicai didn't smile and forced a smile, and silently and affectionately gave Qiao Lijie a peaceful gaze. He has a high nose and deep eye sockets, and his deep double eyelids outline a pair of perfect eyes, which is especially conducive to emotional outlet. The eye waves are flexible and can tell a thousand words. The little girl usually couldn't bear him, so she had to blush and agree to all his requests.

However, Qiao Lijie is not a little girl.

On the other side, Qiao Lijie energetically held up a newspaper to block his second brother's autumn waves. and laughed secretly, laughing at the second brother, who was anxious, couldn't hide his thoughts.

Qiao Zhicai chatted a few jokes with the international students, but found that Qiao Lijie was concentrating on reading the newspaper, and he didn't look at him at all. He scratched his heart with uncomfortable claws in the past few days, and couldn't help asking: "Lijie, your coffee is cold." Why not drink? ”

Qiao Lijie snorted lightly and didn't talk. The international student Xiao Song is a discerning one. Seeing that they were in an embarrassing situation, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Xiao Qiao, I will be in Boston in two days, and I am full of expectations for college life." Hope to introduce me to a reliable landlord. ”

Qiao Lijie thought to himself, why am I Mr. Little Qiao, and he is Mr. Big Qiao? He glanced at the second brother and saw that Qiao Zhicai was staring at him intently. Xiao Wei said, "No problem." My friend will definitely introduce you to the best landlord. ”

Qiao Zhicai saw that his younger brother was kind to the student, but he frowned coldly at himself, pouted and said, "It's so stingy!" ”

Jo Lijie pretended not to hear. Drink coffee and read the newspaper slowly.

When it came to the day when the ship docked, Qiao Lijie reluctantly made peace under the ardent expectation of his second brother.

It happened to be dusk when we landed, and the fiery clouds spread out in the sky like scales. Traces of land have emerged from the open sea of Boston Harbor.

Qiao Zhicai didn't expect that he would be excited to tears when he saw the land one day. Wave your arms and shout along with the students running wildly on the deck.

Xiao Song selflessly shouted, "America." I'm coming! University、I'm coming! ”

Qiao Zhicai laughed and fell, and also shouted: "America! Boston, I'm coming! ”

Qiao Lijie saw that he was excited to look like a bear, so he took a few steps back in disgust and silently distanced himself. Occasionally, foreigners passing by thought they were noisy, and Qiao Lijie had to stare at them angrily.

As soon as Qiao Zhicai stepped on land, he felt uncomfortable and staggered like drunk. He helped Qiao Lijie and sighed. "How the whole land is shaking. I haven't heard foreigners say that foreign countries will shake! ”

Qiao Lijie smiled, "It's that you're not used to stepping on land. Tomorrow will be fine. ”

Qiao Zhicai originally wanted to tease him to speak. At this time, he smiled, and his eyes smiled into a crescent moon to reveal a cunning look.

Qiao Zhicai thought that foreign ports must be in order. It was much busier than at home, and the group passed through strange carriages and cars. Turning around the cargo and the crowds, it's almost like getting lost in the port.

Qiao Lijie led the students. Xiao Song followed Qiao Zhicai with his luggage, and there were many Chinese workers in the chaotic port touting business.

Qiao Zhicai was dizzying, and there was a porter on the side who kept squeezing to snatch the luggage in his hand. Qiao Zhicai waved his hand again and again. "No, no, brother, don't get in my way!"

The porters pushed and yelled, and somehow they suddenly started fighting. Qiao Zhicai was involuntarily coerced and farther and farther away from Qiao Lijie. He shouted twice and found that it was basically useless in the noisy crowd, and Li Jie would definitely not be able to hear it.

So he gritted his teeth and withstood the pressure, desperately squeezing out. By the time he squeezed out of the crowd, Qiao Lijie and his party had disappeared.

Qiao Zhicai stood alone in a foreign land, completely dumbfounded. The luggage fell to the ground with a clatter. He blinked his phoenix eyes and looked around where there was his brother's shadow.

Just when Qiao Zhicai was at a loss, he was pulled violently. Xiao Song also squeezed out in disgrace. Xiao Song asked, "Mr. Da Qiao, what should we do now?" ”

Qiao Zhicai opened his mouth, looked at Xiao Song's immature face, and was embarrassed to say that he didn't know. He forced his composure and pointed ahead. "Let's get out of the harbor first!"

Qiao Lijie and his party were also entangled. However, Qiao Lijie is experienced in the end and does not pay attention to others. Just beckoning the students to hurry up. He kept looking at Qiao Zhicai from afar, and when he saw that the second brother was following him steadily, he walked ahead with confidence. I don't know how far I went, and when I looked back, it turned out that Qiao Zhicai didn't know when he had disappeared.

Qiao Lijie called out to the second brother loudly, but the crowd was surging, and everyone was screaming wildly. Qiao Lijie looked up at the sky, and it was a group of American bombers swarming and buzzing past the harbor.

The crowd in the harbor was in a commotion, like an infested ant colony. An inexplicable panic suddenly spread through the crowd. Someone shouted that the Japanese were coming to attack, and everyone was running out.

Qiao Lijie struggled against the crowd, anxiously trying to find his second brother. But his feet didn't touch the ground, so he was squeezed out of the crowd. He watched as a woman was trampled on the ground, and one by one the people who were caused by the chrysalis stepped on her, and the woman never got up again.

Qiao Lijie waved his arms in vain, trying to help the woman. But he was almost knocked down, and a porter next to him grabbed him dangerously. Qiao Lijie didn't have time to say thank you, so he was pushed away.

Where is the second brother?

Qiao Zhicai was also looking up at the plane at this time.

He knew it was not good when he saw that people were emotional, so he hurriedly took Xiao Song to follow the porter. Sure enough, the porters found a hidden warehouse and got in.

Qiao Zhicai exchanged a pack of cigarettes for the qualification to enter the warehouse, and he still held Xiao Song tightly in his hand. Xiao Song was stunned and looked at the chaotic crowd outside. Puzzled: "Brother Qiao, why are you so skilled?" ”

Qiao Zhicai lit a cigarette by himself, "Why haven't you run the alarm in the tunnel in your hometown?" For a while, Shanghai was overrun by Japanese bombers every day. ”

Xiao Song shook his head. "We, the Japanese in the countryside, are reluctant to drop bombs. There's nothing to fry either. ”

"It's only at this time that we are reminded that we are born in troubled times!" Qiao Zhicai's face was gloomy, and he handed out a few cigarettes to the porter next to him. "I don't know when the war will be over. Warlords fight wars, and the common people suffer. This damn war. ”

He sat on his luggage and was silently worried. I thought to myself, Lijie must be in a hurry.
