Chapter 189
It was just dawn on this day, and there was some movement in a three-entry yard that Haiyao had just bought not long ago. Several half-grown boys began to practice basic skills shirtless in the front yard as usual.
Although the martial artists of the Xu Family Martial Arts School have long since stopped doing the dangerous job of running darts, Haiyao arranged them all to go to the shop, but these housekeeping skills must not be forgotten.After all, it is not easy to do business in this world, and only those who are physically strong can have the energy to deal with some emergencies.
When the sky became brighter again, Haiyao, who had tidied up, came out from the backyard.
Spring goes and autumn comes, time flies, and the weather in late autumn is as bleak as the situation outside now.She wore a dark green quilted jacket with a fox fur neckline today, and the area between her brows was powdered due to the cold air, making her look less aggressive and more delicate.
When passing by the front yard, Haiyao smiled and responded to the greetings from the boys, then went out the gate and bowed to a car that had been waiting on the side of the road for a long time.
Following her order, the car quickly started and drove away from the spot, and a trace of air with a faint sulfur smell entered her nostrils through the half-opened car window.Pedestrians along the street were in a hurry, and the street that was originally the busiest in the city of Shanghai was now tinged with a bit of desolation.
Since the outbreak of the war, the common people in Shanghai began to feel insecure. Fortunately, the coalition forces of the new government have set up a general headquarters to resist the Japanese army in Sioux City next to here, and the two sides have temporarily stalemate there. , the current situation seems to be fairly stable.
But it is obvious that even such efforts cannot bring much sense of security to the people in the city.
Recently, there have been a lot fewer people visible to the naked eye in the city. It seems that those who have the conditions have chosen to go north to join their relatives. The rest are either ordinary people or powerful dignitaries who can leave at any time.
In the silence, the car turned left and right in the city familiarly, and stopped after a few minutes.
"Girl, we're here." The driver in front turned around, and it turned out to be Xiao Shunzi.
A boy at this age grows fast, and it has only been half a year. Not only is Shunzi taller, but his face has also matured a lot.
"Okay." Haiyao replied, got out of the car and walked straight into a western restaurant.
At that time, Miss Song Er was sitting by the window and waved to her warmly. After she sat down, she complained jokingly: "I'm really busy now, it's so hard to even ask you out. Look Today I would like to thank Boss Xu for his kindness and for agreeing to have breakfast with me."
Haiyao laughed and shook her head, her words were apologetic: "Second Miss, don't blame..."
"What's your fault?" Miss Song Er interrupted her loudly, then stretched out her right hand, and her left hand was holding her forehead: "I know you really can't get away, if I didn't have a headache these two days I'm really restless, and I won't bother you. Help me find out what's wrong?"
Stretching out two fingers to rest on the other's wrist, Haiyao lowered her eyes to feel the pulse beating under her fingertips.
To be honest, compared to the grievances with the Tang family, her unfathomable medical skills are much more famous in Shanghai's upper class, and there are not a few people who are trying to ask people to get in touch with her.
It's just that she has already passed the initial stage where she needs to quickly accumulate contacts. Except for a limited number of people, it is almost as difficult as going to heaven for others who want to meet her.
And the members of the Song family, of course, are within that limited range.
"It's probably because I'm a little angry and worrying too much." Haiyao responded with a smile, and squeezed a few acupuncture points on the woman's arm: "I'll prepare two more medicines for Shunzi to give to you later." In the past, tonight, I guarantee that you will sleep unconsciously."
Before the voice on this side fell, Miss Song Er shook her head with a look of surprise on her face: "You are really amazing, I feel that my mind has cleared up a lot now, thank you!"
"So Second Miss is worried about Young Master Song?" Haiyao took a sip from the coffee cup in front of her, and pointed to the crux of the problem.
According to rumors, the day after the Japanese army broke through the southwest defense line, Song Jiayan was urgently transferred to Sioux City, and it is said that a military order was issued on the spot to defend Sioux City.After experiencing the brutal first few days and nights, Shengsheng led a team of less than [-] people to complete five beautiful defense battles, and only then did reinforcements arrive.
At present, the two armies inside and outside Su City can do nothing to each other, forming a strange balance, but everyone knows in their hearts that this balance may be broken at any time.Once that time comes, the consequences will be quite tragic, either you die or I die.
Second Miss Song sighed heavily when she heard the words: "You know, his leg injury has not been recovering for a long time... Forget it, let's not talk about it, I heard that the Tang family has jumped up again in the past two days I don’t know what kind of smoke is coming from their ancestral graves, it’s really this troubled world that saved their lives.”
"Well."
Regarding this, Haiyao didn't show any anxiety on her face, as if she was listening to someone talking about an unimportant matter.
Indeed, some time ago, the Tang family was a little depressed by her alliance with many businessmen including Boss Zheng. No one expected that the other party was about to raise the white flag to surrender, but the war broke out in an all-round way.
The world is not peaceful, and the common people will want to hoard the supplies necessary for daily life. The Tang family was forced to overstock the goods and sold them all at a high price. breathing time.
But in the end, he can only barely maintain it. If he wants to restore the Tang family's heroic appearance in its heyday, and re-enter the Shanghai rich list, I am afraid that there will be no chance in this life.
"That's fine. The rabbit will bite people when it's in a hurry. Hanging there, unable to get up and down, is probably the most uncomfortable state for the Tang family. Sometimes it hurts the most when a slow knife cuts the flesh." Second Miss Song He spoke in relief, and then chatted about other things, and the topic about the Tang family came to an abrupt end.
Just when the two were talking happily, there was a sudden confusion from the end of the street. After a few piercing whistles, pedestrians on both sides of the street scattered, as if they were avoiding something.
Raising her eyebrows in doubt, Haiyao looked through the glass in the direction of the sound, and saw two old dark green military trucks appearing in sight amidst the billowing yellow smoke.
The rear car body is covered with coarse cloth, making it hard to see what's going on inside.
Immediately behind the two trucks were several military cars, and behind them was a group of soldiers moving slowly.Some soldiers were carrying simple stretchers in their hands, and there were several wounded lying on the stretchers. The rest of the soldiers were not idle, either carrying their colleagues on their backs or supporting their colleagues, and all of them looked hurried. , Walking heavily.
"Is Sucheng broken?" Haiyao raised her eyebrows in surprise, but she quickly denied the idea: "If it really fell, there should be news."
At this time, Second Ms. Song had a calm look that she had known for a long time: "The war in Suzhou City is tense, and the clinics and hospitals there can no longer afford to treat these wounded, so the higher-ups issued an order to transfer some of the wounded first. Come to the surrounding cities."
As she said that, the woman raised her hand to glance at the time, and then stood up: "I have to talk to my father later, so you must be careful during this time, it's really chaotic outside. If you encounter any difficult things, just ask people to come to the Song family to find me."
Haiyao nodded in thanks, walked out of the western restaurant with Miss Song and watched the other party leave in the car, then turned around and returned to her own car, and said to Shunzi after a moment of silence: "Go to St. Medical Hall."
Shunzi responded very simply, controlled the car and drove in the direction of the Holy Medical Hall, and soon arrived near the street where the Holy Medical Hall is located.
It's just that for some reason, there was a traffic jam ahead, and even human-powered rickshaws couldn't get through, let alone the big iron bumps under their buttocks.
With some guesses in her mind, Haiyao got out of the car alone after giving Shunzi a few words. After walking a certain distance, she saw a few soldiers setting up a card at the entrance of this street.
Fortunately, they didn't stop the pedestrians from passing. After about half a stick of incense, Haiyao arrived at the Holy Medical Hall smoothly.
Shengyitang is the most time-honored medical center in Shanghai, because she often prescribes medicines for patients, so people who come and go here get acquainted with the old doctor with white beard and hair.The old doctor also has a rather famous name, called Zhang Luoluo.
But as soon as she stepped into the door of the clinic, Haiyao keenly sensed something was wrong.
Although the business of the Holy Medical Hall has been greatly affected by the foreigner hospital opened diagonally opposite in recent years, it is rare that there are no people like this, and the spacious lobby is full of people. The wooden boards on the ground give people the feeling of being crowded.
At this time, there was a sound from behind the screen directly in front, and a white-haired head poked out in the next second.
"Girl, why are you here?" Zhang Luoluo greeted enthusiastically, and after dawdling behind the screen for a while, she walked slowly to the lobby in front, still holding a rag in her hand, occasionally passing by. Stop there for a while and rub it.
"Come and prescribe two soothing medicines." Haiyao looked around and asked casually, "You are..."
"Ah? Ah!" The old man threw the rag in his hand aside, walked towards the medicine shelf behind the counter, and replied, "Isn't this the wounded from Sioux City? It seems that the three foreign hospitals in the city all I can’t let it go, so a military master came over to discuss with me just now, can I use my place to house some wounded.”
Haiyao frowned slightly when she heard this: "But it's only you and Dongqing!"
Dongqing was a beggar rescued by Zhang Luoluo years ago, but at the age of eleven or twelve, now he is helping out as an apprentice in the medical center.Among other things, if more than a dozen wounded came at once, how could they be busy?
The old man took it easy, and waved his hands indifferently, but his tone inevitably revealed some embarrassment: "I only come here for those who are not serious. After all, I am not as good as those foreigners' hospitals..."
While speaking, Zhang Luoluo prepared the medicine and handed it to Haiyao. Haiyao couldn't say anything more, so she thanked Dayang and left the holy medical hall.
As soon as she raised her eyes, what she saw was the scene of people coming and going in front of the foreign hospital diagonally opposite. One after another, the wounded were sent into the hospital from the back of the truck, and the air was even smeared with something strange. Big obvious bloody smell.
Silently pursing her lips, Haiyao was going to look away, but she unexpectedly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure coming out of the foreigner's hospital.
Yo.
She blinked.
It's really a narrow road for enemies.
