Xianghai came home from the club, only to see a person suddenly out of the low and dim attic, he was surprised, fixed his eyes, and saw that it was his elderly father on crutches, angrily striding forward, busy calming down, stepped forward to help him and said, "Daddy! When did you come? Li Shanren pulled Xianghai's ear with one hand and dragged it to the attic, so painful that Xianghai screamed "ouch yo", his heart was weak, and his leg bones softened first, and he stumbled upstairs while pulling Li Shanren's ears and said: "Daddy is angry, there is something to say." Li Shanren ignored him, dragged him upstairs, and knocked on his knee with a cane, and Xianghai knelt on the floor with a "plop".

"Brute! Unfilial son! I also know that I am your father, and I don't have you as a rebel! Tell me, where did you go last night? "Self-fighting auspicious sea" beast! Unfilial son! I also know that I am your father, and I don't have you as a rebel! Tell me, where did you go last night? Since Xianghai took a silver ticket to Shanghai to survey the land, Li Shanren was worried day and night, and repeatedly asked someone to bring a message to Xianghai to inquire about the progress of the matter, telling him not to be extravagant, every penny should be spent on the knife edge, let alone spending all day and wine to take the money of his ancestors and not money, and admonished him to be diligent and thrifty to keep a family and business. I'm afraid that he will take the silver ticket like a kite fleeing harrier, and the vast world will fly away. However, Xianghai did everything himself, not only got the land at a low price, but also personally designed the blueprint, built a house and prepared everything, Li Shanren was full of praise, his son was really better than himself, and he was unsatisfactory. However, recently, there have been rumors that Xianghai has spent a lot of money to raise a bewitching private prostitute in a red-pink and green building, and he can't extricate himself from the place of Fengyue. If Xianghai really doesn't check himself and squanders the money of his ancestors, he will teach him a good lesson and let him know that he is lost. I thought to myself what a good girl Miss Zhang was, he was not uncommon, but he went to the kiln to steal chickens and dogs. How do you get the kiln? Those dusty women "slash fools with swords around their waists", no matter how much money you have, the kiln is also a bottomless pit of dissatisfaction, could it be that Xianghai really went mad and was bewitched by lust, and he didn't even understand this.

Li Shanren was anxious, and took Boss Shen's sand boat to the city early yesterday morning, and saw that Xianghai was not in the store, so he went to the car shop next door to find Zhao Da. Zhao Da was very surprised when he saw the host coming, and hurriedly helped him upstairs and entertained him with the best tea. Li Shanren was depressed, and after only taking a sip, he put it down and stopped drinking. Looking for a big thought that the tea was hot, and took a pu fan to fan, Li Shanren waved his hand and asked Zhao Da if he was used to life in the city, and asked some irrelevant things, knocking on the side to ask if Xianghai really wore flowers and butterflies and went in and out of Fengyue places. Zhao Da didn't know, saying that Xianghai was hard, and it was common to wear stars and moons. Li Shanren asked Zhao Da if he knew where Xianghai had gone today, and Zhao Da only said that Xianghai was on an errand, and he would know when he came back, but he didn't say anything about it. Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them talked a lot of words, and the car shop put up a row of door panels, and they didn't see Xianghai come back. Li Shanren couldn't sit still, got up angrily, and wanted to go back to the wine shop, Zhao Da tried his best to stay, and said: "You see that I only care about talking, and forgot to invite the master to dinner. Li Shanren pointed to the door and said, "Excuse me, how can you get out of this storm!" You and Xianghai wear a pair of pants, and I have nothing to talk about with you! At this time, there was a thunderclap in the sky, and Zhao Da found that it was raining heavily outside, and he wondered in his heart, where can Xianghai go with such a big wind and rain? Seeing Li Shanren's evil voice, he knew that he was angry in his heart, and hurriedly reassured: "Master calm his anger, wait for me to call Lao Cai to interrogate." Lao Cai went out just now, was soaked by the rain, took off his wet clothes and wiped his body, heard Zhao Da shouting, hurriedly put on a long shirt, and went upstairs while buttoning buttons. Zhao Da asked him: "Where does Boss Li usually go?" Lao Cai said: "The Ministry of Industry." ”

"The Ministry of Industry closes at 4 p.m., and it doesn't necessarily open at night. Where else to go? ”

"Brokerage firms."

"Brokerage firms are also closing. Don't hide it from me, now that his father is here, where will Boss Li go except for the Ministry of Industry Bureau and the brokerage company? ”

Lao Cai's housewife ran away with Young Master Jin in a friendly country, Young Master Jin led her to do business outside the border, made money and came back, and her housewife lived with Young Master Jin in a grand manner under Lao Cai's nose. Young Master Jin had no children, so her housewife took her and Lao Cai's child Xiao Cai to live with her for Xiao Cai to go to school. Next door to Young Master Jin lives a woman Wang Liuer, a native of Hangzhou, the man in the family died early, leaving two sons, the woman married to Guangfu not long ago as a concubine, and ran at both ends of Guangfu Shanghai. Lao Cai often took her to the station, unabashed, and told the woman about Xianghai as a joke, and the woman liked to chew the root of her tongue, and also passed the matter of Guangfu to Lao Cai, and slowly became tighter. At this time, seeing Zhao Da asking about Xianghai's whereabouts, he knew that the woman was not tight-mouthed, and she had passed to Guangfu, she was scared, and she couldn't hide it, so she had to tell the truth: "There is also Huileli, Huileli is next to the brokerage company." Zhao Dayi was dumbfounded when he heard this, isn't it Kiln Alley? How could Xianghai go to that kind of place. Lao Cai said: "I've been there many times. Li Shanren listened on the sidelines and asked what kind of place was Huileli? Zhao Da was inconvenient to answer, Li Shanren knew a thing or two, and suddenly his face darkened, and he held his breath and stopped talking. Zhao Da said to Lao Cai: "Please go out again and get Boss Li back." Lao Cai shook his head and said: "Usually Boss Li only asked me to wait for him in the Ministry of Industry Bureau, once I waited for a long time, and saw that he was going to Huileli, so I ran to Huileli, and Boss Li happened to come out of the alley, so I guessed that Boss Li went to Huileli." I have never entered the alley, how can I know where Boss Li went? When Li Shanren heard this, he already understood in his heart, he was so angry that he stared at him, and his face turned white in an instant, he couldn't sit still anymore, and suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "I'd better go back to the wine store and wait for him!" Zhao Da hurriedly dissuaded, asked Lao Cai to take an umbrella to Fuding Ji to buy xiaolongbao, and accompanied Li Shanren to eat dinner in the attic, saying that Xianghai would come back after dark. Li Shanren couldn't excuse himself, and after eating a few, he put down his chopsticks and said that he was full. Zhao Dazhi knew that Li Shanren had something on his mind today, and accompanied him to drink tea pot after pot. It was all dark, the wind and rain were stronger, and Xianghai still didn't come back. Li Shanren couldn't sit still anymore and insisted on leaving. Zhao Da also muttered in his heart, and persuaded him: "Master doesn't have to bother waiting for him to come back, Brother Xianghai is a measured person, he must have something to do outside and can't come back." There are a lot of inconveniences for the master to be alone, so let's rest here first, and then talk about it tomorrow? Li Shanren said: "I'm not a person in my seventies and eighties, don't worry about it, I'll go back to the wine shop." At this time, he hated and annoyed in his heart, and he almost wanted to catch Xianghai and kill him, but his face was still the same as usual, so he went downstairs, regardless of Zhao Da's dissuasion, and stepped through the back door of the wine shop. Who wants Xianghai to stay all night and not return, Li Shanren sat in the back wing room all night

Xianghai saw that his father suddenly appeared in the wine shop, the seven souls lost three souls, and he was beaten by his father, he was already frightened, and in a blink of an eye, his father did not know that he went to Huileli, so he knelt on the ground, saying that the child had done something wrong and made his father angry. Seeing that his father was worried about himself, Xianghai immediately regretted it, saying that the child was not filial, and then argued for himself, and described the land exploration, transaction transfer, infrastructure preparation, and the whereabouts of the silver in detail, but he concealed the matter of finally pressing Smith's 200 yuan an acre of land, and told the hard work of taking a rickshaw to survey the land, gnawing hard and cold cakes, and coming and going in the wind and rain. Li Shanren saw that the whereabouts of the money were clear and did not embezzle it elsewhere, so he was a little relieved, and saw that Xianghai was pale and tired, and he regretted it again. He couldn't let go of Xianghai when he didn't return at night, so he paused his crutches on the floor and reprimanded him: "My father has experienced much more hardships than you, if you fish for three days and dry nets for four days like you, where will you be today." Although the road to entrepreneurship is difficult, it cannot be reduced to the quality of human beings. I heard that you raised a woman in a green house, and she said that she had a nose and eyes, but I still don't believe it, but today the old man personally bumped into you and didn't return all night, how do you explain? ”

Xianghai was shocked, and sure enough, rumors spread to Guangfu, and his father came here because he was not at ease, so he lied that he was not allowed to return home until the curfew last night. Li Shanren heard that his hands were shaking and his feet trembled, and he was angry, and scolded angrily: "You unfilial son, if there is still a curfew in Shanghai, how can you build a house?" The night market has been opened in the fifth year of the Republic of China, how could there be a curfew last night? They say that you are smart and clever, but you use the curfew to scare your father? Xianghai improvised a story, saying: "Recently, General Buyi staged a coup d'état in Beijing, and Sun Wen will go north via Shanghai to discuss the great cause with General Buyi. The Songhu envoy reached an agreement with the foreigners to arrest Sun Wen in the concession. With the experience of Dean Song, Sun Wen did not dare to show his head publicly, so he took advantage of the wind and rain last night to sneak into Shanghai, but was detected by the patrol room, so there was a temporary curfew. "This was three months ago, and Xianghai used it to fool Li Shanren.

Li Shanren really believed it, and threw his anger into Java. Ease down and say: "Let's believe you once, if there is really something wrong, don't blame me for killing my relatives in righteousness!" As he spoke, he suddenly took out a golden pistol from his cloth and threw it on the table. Xianghai's surprise was not trivial, thinking about how his father could have a pistol, I don't know what his father's intention was to hold a gun, and when he was in a panic, Li Shanren took out a long shaft from the cloth and shook it out: "The rebel son is optimistic!" This is the Li family's precept, take it and read it carefully to me! Xianghai only took it in his hand, glanced at the pistol on the table, read a precept, glanced at Daddy and then read a sentence:

…… The sea of evil is vast, and the first evil lust; The world is disturbed, and it is easy to commit adultery. In the weathered area, I thought that it would be harmless to set foot occasionally, but I didn't know that the fragrance of flowers was poisonous and dizzy, and I would give up halfway, and I would do nothing, so I quit it. A porridge and a meal, when thinking about it is hard-won and squandering, this is a loser; Half a silk and half a thread, the constant thought of material resources is difficult, so as to keep a family. When your parents are in the church, you should not stay home at night, otherwise you will be unfaithful and unfilial......

Xianghai read respectfully and pondered where his father's golden pistol came from.
