Age of Rebirth

Chapter 590 Night Visit

On a snowy night in the Taihang Mountains, Mei Xue finally revealed her thoughts to her elder sister Mei Ting. Having said these words, she felt a sense of relief, but at the same time, she was burdened with a heavier torment. Her choice may be a road of no return. Once her sister does not forgive herself, Mei Xue is going to leave quietly, to a place that no one knows, and quietly end the rest of her life.

Mei Ting knows her sister's character, Tang Qiuli has completely occupied her inner world, other men can't enter at all, love is selfish and cannot be shared, but Mei Xue is her own sister, her painful Mei Ting completely I understand that Mei Ting also does not want her younger sister to spend the rest of her life like this, and she is also caught in a dilemma.

Mei Xue, who was held in Mei Ting's arms, wet Mei Ting's chest with tears, her body trembled even more, like a wounded bird, Mei Ting suddenly felt an indescribable pain in her heart, the two Hot tears rolled down her cheeks, and she said in a dreamy voice: "Okay sister, then let us sisters take care of this man together!" After speaking, there was another sigh.

Mei Xue raised her pear face with rain, and looked at her sister in disbelief. From her eyes, she saw honesty and kindness. Mei Xue hugged her sister tightly, as if she wanted to merge her life with her sister. , The two sisters just cuddled together, neither of them spoke, but they could read each other's hearts. [

Outside, the white snowflakes are falling lightly on the lattice, and the more they accumulate, the thicker they are, as if they want to decorate this small space into a white and pure world, as if looking at the two sisters whose fate is connected in the house.

Mei Xue who untied her heart knot, the melancholy and torment hidden in her heart disappeared, and her whole body became energetic. Seeing Mei Xue's sweetness from the heart, Mei Ting smiled gratifiedly and sadly, and her life was going well. Quickly, in the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and Shan Hu sent someone to pick up Mei Ting to Zhengzhou.

Looking at Mei Xue's anxious and longing eyes, Mei Tingnai shook her head, this little girl wished she could grow wings and fly to that bad guy's side, and immediately laughed at herself, why didn't she do that.

After Mei Ting's narration, Tang Qiuli understood the reason why Mei Xue also came to Zhengzhou. Of course, Mei Ting, who is smart, did not tell Tang Qiuli the secret of the two sisters. She didn't want her beloved man to think it was a gift. , Let the two of them slowly cultivate their relationship, just like they did at the beginning.

Tang Qiuli stroked his chin, thought about it and said: "Your dean Jiang is doing a good job. Are you a soldier? You should often smell gunpowder. In this way, when I go to Nanjing for a meeting, I just need to keep in touch with the army. You should first Go to Chen Feng's communication department for an internship, then go to Yu Deshui's intelligence department, Shen Jun's investigation department, after the internship is over, I want to ask the three of them about your internship results!"

Mei Xue jumped up happily, and replied playfully: "Please rest assured, teacher, student Mei Xue will definitely complete the internship task with the best grades, and live up to the love of the superior!" Tang Qiuli and Mei Ting were both amused.

Seeing the happy faces of the two sisters, Tang Qiuli was also in a good mood, and said: "Xiaoxue is in the army for an internship for the first time, and she is under the guidance of the teacher. I, the officer, have to express my welcome. In this way, let's change into Dress casually, go out to eat, local snacks in Henan, quite good, how about it?"

Of course Mei Ting and Mei Xue agreed, and the two sisters went in hand in hand to change their clothes. Tang Qiuli also found a suit, a snow-white shirt, a tie with navy blue diagonal stripes, and a black woolen overcoat. , I looked in the mirror, I was so handsome, I felt very satisfied with this outfit.

In fact, Tang Qiuli has his own plans. The troops are scattered and stationed in various places, which involve people's livelihood issues, urban management and many other aspects. He wants to take this opportunity to learn about the basic situation of the low-level citizens, so as to prepare for the implementation of military policy in the area under his control in the future. Centralized leadership, collecting first-hand information, these generals have a way of leading troops to fight, but they don't know how to manage the city.

When Mei Ting and Mei Xue came out of the back room, Tang Qiuli's eyes were straightened. The two sisters were dressed in the college student's attire of that era, white clothes and black skirts, and overcoats. They were simple and elegant, with youthful vitality in their elegance. Even the hairstyle was the same, with long black hair tied behind his head with a white hair tie, which made Tang Qiuli's throat feel dry.

He coughed dryly and said: "Very good, very good! Very tasteful!" He secretly groaned in his heart, and his immunity to Mei Xue was getting weaker and lower. Just now, he had the urge to hold her in his arms. As if he suddenly remembered something, he slapped his head, "By the way, I forgot to tell that guy Shanhu, I can't go out without his approval, I'll go say hello to him!" After finishing speaking, he ran away first When they went out, the two sisters behind them couldn't help but looked at each other and smiled.

Zhengzhou at night has returned to its former prosperity, row upon row of shops, business is booming, the traces of the previous period of war have completely disappeared, Tang Qiuli can't help but sigh, Chinese people have a very strong ability to survive, and from time to time they see neatly dressed and fully armed , the patrol team wearing red armbands, without squinting, walked through the streets and alleys at a neat pace.

Tang Qiuli nodded secretly. Yuan Jinghao did a good job. They walked around with great interest for a while and chose a small but clean restaurant. The business was good and almost full. Shanhu arranged for a special guard , all in casual clothes, secretly protected, when Tang Qiuli and the others stepped into the restaurant, the outside was completely controlled by the soldiers of the special guards.

The owner of the restaurant was a middle-aged man in his 40s. He could tell at a glance that these three young men and women were not ordinary people. He smiled and asked, "Boss, the business is good. Is there anyone here for free food or extortion?"

The boss smiled, "Look at what your gentleman said. If it was in the past, this kind of thing would be common. In my small restaurant, I didn't answer these guys right that day. You get beaten up from time to time, and you can’t handle the police gang gangsters alone. You don’t have much money left throughout the year, and you can’t even hold your breath.

"Tang Enbo's central army was stationed here and there, hey, this one paid that tax, squeezed out the oil from the bones of the common people, but when the Japanese came, they ran faster than rabbits, leaving the common people behind, and were attacked by the Japanese devils Disaster, you said, even if you have a dog, it will bark a few times when a stranger comes, right?" The boss is a very talkative person, and he kept shaking his head as he spoke, obviously having lingering fears about those days.

While he was busy, he said: "But it's different now. Tang Enbo lost Zhengzhou, the independent division beat off the Japanese devils, and the common people can live and work in peace and contentment again. Especially after Commander Yuan's team is stationed here, arrest these guys Gotta be caught, fucked up, that guy who dared to bully the common people, who was scraping oil, is gone. There are patrols patrolling the streets every day, and they pay a fixed amount of money a month, which is less than [-]% of the original amount. This, the common people are willing to pay, and the team will block the Japanese for us, no, next year, I plan to expand the shop and recruit a few more guys, this day will have a bright future!"

Tang Qiuli seemed very interested, and then asked: "Boss, do any soldiers often come to your place for drinks and meals?" Soldiers running around in the street, usually seen, they are also queuing up to buy things, they speak kindly, and they are not bad for a penny, and I have never heard that they get nothing for nothing."

"You said, the Central Army is different from the Central Army. Don't mention it when Tang Enbo's soldiers were stationed here. At night, the streets are full of drunken soldiers. When they see beautiful girls and daughter-in-laws, Chasing after you and making moves, if things go wrong, you beat people and smash stores, and even extort money from you. No soldier in Commander Yuan's team dares to do this. I hope Tang Enbo's team won't come back again. Commander Yuan's team, Being stationed here all the year round, the common people know the bottom of their hearts.”[

The guest at the next table took up the conversation, "Boss, you don't know, Tang Enbo won't come back. A relative of mine came from Xiangfan, Hubei yesterday. According to him, Tang Enbo was shot in Xiangfan!" Restaurant The people in the house were all taken aback, and asked him about the matter one after another.

This guest was very proud of having the exclusive news for himself, "Zhi Liu" took a sip of wine, cleared his throat, and continued: "This matter is absolutely true. A teacher surnamed Tang, I heard that he is still a high-ranking official in the government, otherwise, can he subdue Tang Enbo, the incarnate demon king, and take care of the 10,000+ soldiers under him by the way, "

When the people in the restaurant heard it, they applauded loudly, saying that the four major disasters in Henan, flood, drought and yellow soup, finally except for one major disaster, the lives of ordinary people are much better. At this time, four delicate side dishes and two meat dishes , and it was already deliciously served on the table, the boss greeted, "You guys take it easy!" and backed out.

The guests in the restaurant also changed the topic and talked about business matters. Tang Qiuli was in a very comfortable mood. His army had a high status in the eyes of the common people, and this was the foundation of the future. inexhaustible source.

The three of them buried their heads in eating, Tang Qiuli suddenly thought of something, and said to Mei Xue: "You are my subordinate now, on formal occasions, you call me teacher or teacher, and on formal occasions in private, you You can't call me like that, it looks blunt, and I'm not used to it, so, you call me brother-in-law, by the way, you've never called me before, just take it as practice today, call it out!"

What Tang Qiuli said was half-truth and half-false, with a hint of joking. He really wanted to hear Mei Xue call him brother-in-law, and also adjust the relationship between the two. Who knows, what Mei Xue said was almost Tang Qiuli was so scared that he fell under the table.
