The bloody case in Chu Mansion in October, with the death of Chu Erye, came to an end, due to the participation of the Japanese Concession Army, no one knew the follow-up results, the Japanese army in China was growing more and more, and no one wanted to provoke them. There is a grapevine that a warrior armed with a katana slaughtered nearly 300 people in the Chu Mansion, except for the handsome aunts and wives and maids who had been hiding in advance, no one else survived that night in the mansion.

Except for Zhou Hexuan and Sun Yonghao, no one knew what happened that night, and even the aunts and wives of the Chu Mansion didn't know, because the second master's explanation to them was a drill.

The Japanese army did not speak for a long time, and the news announced was a vendetta, and the old and young masters of Jinwei were speculating whether this matter was done by the Japanese themselves. Chu Yupu made a mess of public debts in the Zhili area, which angered the Japanese and simply wiped out his army in Jinwei. Chu Dashuai lost his money bag, and he was not far from the end of failure, otherwise how could he just kill people and not rob money? I heard that he also called the aunts and wives of Chu Mansion back to collect the money left behind by Chu Mansion, and it seems that the ground of this Zhili is about to change the sky again.

"Brother Xihua, what are you thinking?" Han Cai'er came to the garden after dinner, and couldn't help but ask when she saw Lu Xihua sitting sullenly on the bench.

"It's nothing, Cai'er, how have you been at school lately?" Lu Xihua didn't answer Han Cai'er's words, but asked her a question.

"Very good! Everyone is talking about resisting Japan and saving the country, organizing parades, and recently they are all singing on the Songhua River, can you listen to me singing?" Han Caier said with a serious face.

Lu Xihua nodded, looking at Han Cai'er in front of her, her jet-black hair was no longer the original yellow-haired girl. The body has also grown, with a meter of six and five, although she is still a little sister in front of her, but Lu Xihua knows that she is a female man at school. Organize students to donate money and materials, various charity performances, and often call on everyone to participate in the voluntary labor of the concession, is a popular figure in the school, and is ready to go to university. It's really fast, the little girl is eighteen years old.

"Brother Xihua, are you listening to me sing?!" After Han Cai'er finished singing, she looked at Lu Xihua with a resentful expression.

Lu Xihua knew that Han Caier had grown up, and this former little girl had hazy feelings for herself, and now she was even more undisguised, so she was ridiculed by Lao Zhou, saying that she was raised by a girl.

Han Cai'er looked at Lu Xihua, who had an ageless face in front of her, and her face turned red. Eight years ago, when he met his brother, he was like this, eight years later, he was already slim and became a big girl, and his brother is still like this, no change at all. It's just that my brother appears less and less outside, and the restaurant is also taken care of by myself and my classmates at school, and the money earned is used for extracurricular activities and school donations, I really don't know what my brother is thinking in his head.

Brother Zhou has several children, and when he thinks of the whispered words that Sister Xiaodong said to herself, he can't help but feel ashamed. Sister Xiaodong told herself that women should take the initiative, she took the initiative to take down Brother Zhou back then, and now the happy appearance of the family makes Han Caier envious.

Brother Xihua is very good to everyone, and in his eyes, everyone seems to be equal and polite to everyone. However, since that night, when a soldier broke into the house and tried to take him away, he knew Siwargo's temper. Although Brother Xihua said that he would go out for a while that night, he knew what Brother Xihua was doing, and he didn't let go until he returned home lightly.

After quietly inquiring, I learned that a warlord surnamed Chu was wiped out that night. My God, when I heard everyone's surprise when they talked about the death of 300 people, I knew Xihuage's anger. Brother Xihua said that it was for the people of Jinwei to eliminate harm, but he knew that he was doing it for himself. For his sister, who is not related by blood, from that moment, the seeds of love were planted in his heart.

Until that night a year ago, when he learned from Sister Xiaodong to hug Brother Xihua from behind, Brother Xihua smiled, and while laughing, he also scratched his face and said that he was too young, and he would think about it when he was 23 years old. It's really annoying, everyone is so active, Brother Xihua is still indifferent, and even makes fun of his young age, isn't everyone married at the age of sixteen or seventeen?

is 23 years old, there are still 5 years, fortunately, Brother Xihua has no one he likes, and he still has an advantage in staying by his side. Thinking of this, Han Caier couldn't help but clench her fists.

Looking at Cai'er in front of him, who was full of girlish thoughts, Lu Xihua smiled helplessly. I am dedicated to the Tao, how can the girl's mind be as straight as a spring silkworm, and she surrounds herself in a circle, and in desperation, she can only say that she is about 23 years old.

When I came here and got rid of my pursuit of power, I became more and more mentally sensitive. The world is full of chaotic collisions of thoughts, and the belief of the Chinese nation is like a fire candle in the wind in this troubled world, shaking and extinguishing. I don't dare to touch it easily, I am afraid that those turbulent currents can destroy my spirit in an instant, no wonder people who used to read novels and practice would go into the mountains to avoid disasters in troubled times, but how to practice if they blindly dodge?

Where do I go from here?

The next ten years is the year of suffering of the Chinese nation, but also the awakening year of the Chinese nation, how to see the rainbow without experiencing wind and rain, the will of the Chinese nation awakens to the top of the world because there is too much precipitation in front. In the troubled times, the only thing you can do is to protect your family and survive.

Thinking of this, Lu Xihua raised his head and said to Han Cai'er, "Cai'er, let's go to the mountain city!"

"What?" For a while, Han Cai'er didn't hear what Lu Xihua wanted to say

"I said, let's move to a mountain town. I'm a little tired of being here, and I want to go to the mountain city to live, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful, Ah Huang can also wander around, he is old, and it is good to find a place to retire. Lu Xihua looked at Han Cai'er seriously and said.

Han Cai'er understood, Lu Xihua was serious, "Then, what about the house here?

Lu Xihua said, "I'll leave it to you, Brother Zhou, to watch." Uncle Zhou, Zhou's mother, they have the rent of the store, which is enough to live. I'll leave the monthly rent to them to deal with, anyway, the deed is all in your Brother Zhou's place, as long as the house is still in other places, it's okay, he's a celebrity, and he won't hack our money. ”

Han Cai'er sneered, "I hate it, Brother Zhou is not that kind of person." Well, well, I still have to say hello to my classmates, what about the cafeteria?"

Lu Xihua said, "Let's donate the restaurant to your girls' school, and use it as an off-campus training point for your girls' school, anyway, those snacks and drinks are simple, although there are many imitations in the Tianjin Acropolis, but it is the only one in the British Concession, and it is easy to make some money to run a school." ”

"Xihua, you're so good!" As soon as Han Cai'er heard this, she pounced on Lu Xihua with a smile and hugged Lu Xihua's neck and was coquettish.

In the past eight years, Lu Xihua still has more affection for Han Caier than love, and still regards her as a little sister in his heart, so he had to helplessly push Han Caier away, which made Han Caier unhappy.

Since he plans to leave, everything is simple, Lu Xihua has space, and he doesn't bring any luggage. Han Cai'er more or less knew that her brother had something special, so she carried a box with her to make a show. The two of them are a cat, ready to go to Jingshi, from where they take a train to Hankow, and then take a boat to the mountain city.
