When the sky is bright, the tide gradually recedes.

The corpses of the Japanese who were washed up by the waves fell to the beachhead, and in addition to the seven or eight hundred people who were captured and killed in the sea, most of the warships were destroyed.

For a small country like Dongying, with such serious war damage, it will definitely not dare to attack again in a short period of time, and the crisis in Hangzhou can be regarded as completely resolved.

When the battle was over, the rain stopped, the smoke and haze dissipated, and the washed sky was cloudless, and the bright sun shone on the sea.

Except for the fact that the corpses of the Japanese are a little unpleasant, the others are quite beautiful.

Is this war?

Winning this battle, Song Che was not very happy, although the Japanese should die, although he did not kill people, but overnight, thousands of people were decisive.

Smelling the smell of blood in the wind, looking at the stumps and broken arms on the beach, it makes people sick to their stomachs.

Merchant, don't get too much blood on your hands.

After a sleepless night, feeling tired, Song Che stretched his waist, turned around and walked down the Wangjiang Pavilion, and as soon as he stepped out of the door, a carriage was laid in front of him.

The door curtain opened, Zhou Yazhao poked his head out, and said with red eyes: "Old lady, she ...... Lost his breath. ”

Song Che was sad for a moment, and sighed softly, birth, old age, sickness and death, joys and sorrows, everything is like this, why bother with too much emotion?

He didn't get into the car, but turned back to Wangjiang Pavilion.

"You're not going to go to the funeral?" Zhou Yazhao was surprised.

"I'll come, but not now." Song Che didn't say anything more, went upstairs again, returned to the original point, and continued to look at the dock.

Zhou Yazhao waited in front of the pavilion for a long time, and when he saw that Song Che was indifferent, he sighed and asked the coachman to leave.

From morning to afternoon, Ning Yehong came to Song Che three times, the first time to report the battle situation, the second time to bring lunch, and the third time to accompany and wait.

"Why aren't you smiling?"

"My grandmother died."

"Huh?" Ning Yehong was shocked, "This ...... This...... Amitabha, what are you still doing standing here, why don't you go back to mourn soon. ”

Funeral?

Since the father and son were guillotined on Wednesday, Song Che has never returned to Zhou's house.

Of the few people in the Zhou family, who didn't hope that the old lady would die soon, but the father and son were bolder than the others on Wednesday.

Now that the old lady is really dead, and the Zhou family's business has suffered a setback, the family must have become a mess.

Anyway, in Song Che's eyes, it is easier to eradicate the Japanese than to deal with the Zhou family's.

"The ship is coming." Song Che said lightly and walked downstairs.

"What?"

"The passenger ship from Suzhou is coming."

The heavy rain has only been on for a day, and the canal has not flooded, with Shen Wenjun's feelings for her grandmother, she will definitely come immediately when she hears the funeral news, and calculate the time, it should be this passenger boat.

Song Che rented a carriage, and when he arrived at the junction, he happened to meet Shen Wenjun and his mother-in-law Zhou Yumei, who got off the boat.

"Husband!"

Shen Wenjun almost pounced, "Before, my mother was worried that the family was busy with funerals, and no one came to pick us up, I said that my husband would definitely wait for us at the dock, no, you are really here." ”

Song Che opened Shen Wenjun's sleeve and saw that the wound had scabbed and dried up, so he smiled reassuringly, beckoned his mother-in-law to get into the carriage and went to Zhou's house to mourn.

Ning Yehong in the crowd was so unique, but her eyes were only staring at Song Che and Shen Wenjun who were leaning on each other on the wheel, this time, it was naked jealousy.

She laughed to herself, disappeared into the crowd, and disappeared.

……

The Zhou Mansion was full of white silk, and the whole family wore linen and filial piety.

The body of the old lady was parked in the Hong'en Pavilion, and all the children and grandchildren gathered in the hall.

The mother-in-law didn't even have time to wear filial piety clothes, got off the carriage and went straight to the attic, and when she saw the old lady lying in the coffin, she cried out with a "wow", "Mother! My daughter is unfilial and can't see you for the last time! ”

Shen Wenjun also knelt in front of the coffin to wipe his tears and weep, while Song Che was silently burning paper money on the side.

"Fourth sister, you are ...... to mourn and change" Several eldest brothers and sisters-in-law stepped forward one after another to comfort them.

"Sister-in-law, second brother, when she goes, what are your last words?" Zhou Yumei wiped her tears and asked.

The old lady was angry to death, let alone the last words, there must be a lot of complaints.

"This ......" The descendants of the full hall stood up for a long time, but the eldest aunt Zheng Xiu'e stood up first, wiped her tears and said: "Mother said, let us descendants, be harmonious, and don't kill each other again...... However, now that the Zhou family's reputation is discredited, where can the business continue? ”

"Yes, now the Zhou family firm, as soon as it opens, someone will come to splash dirty water and abuse, our Zhou family's century-old family business, I'm afraid it will fall." The eyes of the second uncle Zhou Gui when he spoke glanced at Song Che.

Everyone in the family is crying, but how many tears are falling with feeling?

What they are crying about is not that the old mother is angry to death, but that the Zhou family is about to fall, and the life of brocade clothes and food is over.

"Fourth sister. Fifth sister, she is far away in Jingzhou, suffering from the war, and can't share it for the family, and now only your Shen family can help the Zhou family through this difficulty, for the sake of the brothers and sisters, can you help? Zhou Gui held back his heart for a long time, and finally confided it.

"Huh? This ......" Zhou Yumei looked at her daughter and son-in-law, "My Shen family's wealth is in Suzhou, and compared with my mother's family, it is a small witch and a big witch, how can I help you?" ”

"Isn't there still Song Xian's nephew." The eyes of several elders were focused on Song Che.

Zheng Xiu'e said: "Song Xian's nephew is a wizard of business, and it only took half a month to make the deserted shops known to the whole city. ”

Zhou Gui continued: "Yes, yes, yes, he still won the first place at the Pearl Conference!" ”

Zhou Shijie coughed twice on his chest, "If it weren't for my brother-in-law to eliminate harm for the Zhou family, I'm afraid my life would be gone, but my brother-in-law is my life-saving benefactor!" ”

Song Che had 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping past in his heart, remembering that when he first came to Zhou's house, these people didn't have a good attitude.

"Brothers and sisters-in-law, sisters and brothers-in-law, uncles and aunts, the family business is declining and decaying, it is caused by many years, and I can't do anything about it," Song Che waved his hand and said, "I can't help, I can't help ......."

"I can help, I can help!" Zheng Xiu'e came up and said with a smile: "The family doesn't talk to the family, my good nephew, my aunt is unforgiving in her life, and even less open her mouth to ask for help, you read it for the sake of the Zhou family, help us, right?" ”

"Yes, nephew-in-law, before the old lady died, she entrusted the palm print to the little sister," Zhou Gui glanced at Zhou Yazhao, and said: "I know that my nephew and my little sister have a lot of relationship, even if you don't help us, you should find a way to help her, right?" ”

Therefore, Song Che was reluctant to step into the door of the Zhou family, especially the two elders in front of him, who revealed hypocrisy between the lines.

Lao Tzu is not.

"Little nephew, I really have more than enough heart but not enough strength!"
