The living room was full of people, well-behaved, large bags of gifts were placed on the ground, as soon as He Qi came in, he smelled a strong fragrance of ink, stood in front of the door and bowed a literati salute, raised his head and smiled: "Eh. You have come to dinner, and you have brought so many gifts, I am a hand-shaker, I deserve it! ”

More than a dozen people immediately stood up in unison and bowed.

Liu Banxia, who was not tall and had a delicate face, said to a few fresh faces: "This is the boss of our "Sprout". A few of you knock on my thin bamboo pole every day, knock nothing, this is the fattest bamboo pole in Shanghai, last night chartered the 'Paramount Gate', the opportunity is rare, only this once, I will let go of the stomach to eat. ”

He Qi didn't have much of a fight, and while recruiting Uncle Fu and making tea for everyone, he laughed at himself: "Brother Banxia, I have never seen you so cold." I'm afraid that all the people in Shanghai are laughing at the surname He is a mallet! If this matter is known by Deqian, I will be nagged for at least a year. ”

"This is true, others laugh at your wealth, that is envy, and Deqian is a pure joke. Hahaha" Liu Banxia's bad mouth made everyone laugh, it turned out that the legendary Mr. He was also a joker, not like the outside world.

The scene suddenly came alive.

He Qi sat down, took out the "Hade Gate" from his pocket, and saw that people were scattered, and everyone was really surprised to see He Qi smoking this cigarette, Liu Banxia quipped: "Brother Yubai, you are a big boss, living in a big villa, just smoke this?" ”

He Qi saw that Liu Banxia had a pack of "beautiful cards" in front of him, so he said: "Brother Banxia, you don't know this, I am particular about smoking 'Hademen'." ”

Liu Banxia said curiously: "What is the particularity?" ”

Everyone also looked at it curiously.

He Qi said: "Ordinary people smoke 'Hademen' is called real, and the rich and oily 'Hademen' is called low-key, and some people don't want to leak money and deliberately pretend to be poor." A few days ago, there was an incident reported in the newspaper that there was a young man who looked very distinctive, but spent a lot of money, and a beautiful girl got along with him. The girl said that I love your people, not your money. Later, the young man's affairs failed, it turned out that he was embezzling public funds to rush the head, and after the girl learned about it, she wanted to break up, and the young man was desperate and disheartened, so he jumped into the river. This tells us that you can be rich, but you can't pretend to be rich, you can be poor, but you can't be really poor. ”

"Hahaha," the crowd burst into laughter.

Liu Banxia was smoked by He Qi because of a pack of "beautiful brand" cigarettes, but he was not angry, and said with a smile: "Okay, you Yubai brother, you were waiting for me here?" Deqian once said to scold, you are an expert, and even Yucai is not your opponent, I can see it today. ”

"Huh!! Brother Banxia praised it falsely, what I said has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to be excited. Besides, Brother Banxia is talented, eloquent, knowledgeable, and has a lingering fragrance, which are all advantages. Today's girls, some of them love to sing poetry alone, the wind and snow, eh, they can't look down on the rich, just like you. ”

It's the first time for everyone to see the well-spoken editor-in-chief Liu, and they are so angry that they suddenly laugh and twitch.

Liu Banxia was straightened and rubbed his head.

Lao Qiao's face was full of smiles, his body was thin, he was wearing a green shirt and a pair of glasses, he was very Sven, and he sat in the middle, without any sense of disobedience.

He Qi said: "Everyone, there are toilets at home and outside, people have three urgency, don't hold back if you have something, I won't pay if it's broken, you can ask Uncle Fu to lead the way." ”

Uncle Fu has been standing quietly and waiting, and if someone wants to go to the toilet, he will lead the way.

Finally, Lao Qiao got up.

Uncle Fu led Lao Qiao to a no-man's land, and said softly: "The firewood is enough to burn." The lord is in the courtyard. ”

Lao Qiao was speechless, nodded, and then went to the front yard, where Uncle Fu was guarding the door.

The old man stood under the plum blossom with Xiao Shu'er in his arms, and suddenly said, "You are here." ”

"Are you okay?" Lao Qiao walked to Li Li's tomb, folded a plum blossom, and put it in front of the tombstone.

"People are old and useless." The old man said.

"There are talents from all generations."

"Back then, Li Ji wanted to follow Mr. Sun, but I stopped him, and you said the same thing, and helped him go to the south, and it has been four or five years, and this little rabbit cub really mixed up with his personality. This time, when you say this sentence again, I am relieved. The old man turned around, looked at Lao Qiao, and suddenly smiled: "I, I haven't been able to understand one thing, Mr. Sun asked someone to come to you, but you didn't want to go, someone from the north came to look for you, and you didn't go, why did you recognize it this time?" ”

"On the way back, he made a bet with me, saying that he would overpower the Green Gang within a year, and he did it, and I believed it." Lao Qiao said flatly.

"That's right." The old man said happily: "We are not as good as him, we still read less books, and our vision is not enough." In the past, when the two of us encountered this kind of thing, the first thing we thought about was to fight and kill. He's good, he pressed Lao Zhang to beat him last night, and in the morning Lao Huang asked someone to make peace, don't you say it's ridiculous? ”

"Lao Huang's face is only enough for one time." Lao Qiao said coldly.

"I know that he knows better than us in his heart that Li Li's matter needs an explanation." The old man's murderous aura was soaring, and his cloudy eyes revealed fierceness: "Otherwise, I won't be able to explain to Li Li and his mother if I go down." ”

"Lao Fu said that the inner ghost in the gang hasn't been found out yet, you be careful, don't walk in front of me."

"Hmm!"

"Go ahead!" The old man turned away.

Lao Qiao silently returned to the hall and changed his face again.

After the luncheon, He Qi drank a lot of wine, went back upstairs in a daze, and lay on the bed.

He Qi knew what his wife was worried about.

"The matter in Zhabei is settled, and Lao Huang and Boss Du make peace. Don't think about it. ”

"Really?" Li Juan said in surprise.

"Can I still lie to you?"

Li Juan's hanging heart was put down, he pulled the quilt and covered his body, his head rested on He Qi's chest, and said, "I really hope we are in Beiping." The dog baby lives there alone, all the same."

"The Shaoxing Hall where Yu Cai lived before, the conditions were too poor, I went there a few times, and the rats climbed into bed at night to find food. I asked Yu Cai to move to Dongjiaomin Lane, and lived in the house I used to live in. Yucai, you don't know it, he is poor and exquisite, and his clothes are all washed. The small courtyard is taken care of by him, and it is kept clean. ”

"You know what to do with me." Li Wan said angrily.

"I want to gag you!"

"Ahh Bad guy, it's not dark yet! ”

"Have a little meeting in advance."

Li Juan's body gradually disappeared outside the quilt, and He Qi tried his best to restrain himself, but he still couldn't help but let out a low roar of his soul.
