Fang Monan and the others walked into the ancient house, it was really antique, traditional Lingnan style garden architecture.It really does not fall into the name of Yuancui Qingfeng!Some of the small furniture in the room are also made of bamboo, which is decorated in it, exquisite and beautiful.

The old lady in the living room got up and walked over when she saw Fang Monan and the others coming in. The old man introduced, "This is my wife, Qiao Fengyi. Fengyi, these are some young friends I just met."

"Thank you! Cured my husband's illness." Qiao Fengyi took Fang Monan's hand affectionately, and said gratefully with a loving face.

"It's a little effort, it's a little effort." Fang Monan smiled and waved his hand modestly. "Not worth mentioning."

Fang Monan changed the subject and said, "I haven't introduced myself yet! My name is Fang Monan, and this is He Junyao, Cheng Shixi. My friend." [

"Oh! Let me introduce myself too, the little old man He Hongsen is so powerful." The old man said with a smile. They both know each other but they don't know their names yet.

"Macau gambling king." Cheng Shixi joked.

"Brother Xi is talking nonsense, the gambling king of Macau, Stanley Ho, has several wives." Later generations have been ranked as the fifth wife, and now they are at least the third wife. "Mr. He is very loyal to his wife!"

As soon as Fang Monan's words came out of her mouth, Qiao Fengyi was overjoyed. Regardless of a woman's age, her husband's loyalty to her is definitely a commendable thing, especially if her husband is both rich and beautiful. 'Although he was not handsome and suave when he was young, he was also well-mannered and talented.Otherwise, among the many suitors, he would not have fallen in love with him who is not wealthy.What is in the picture is naturally his personality, honest, reliable, hardworking and generous.

He Junyao's eyes flickered slightly, and his black eyes were half covered, covering his thoughts.Nan'er didn't know the old man in front of him, but he knew clearly that the one in front of him was no worse than the richest man in Hong Kong Island.It's just that people tend to only remember the first one.

The old man in front of him had a legendary life.With Hong Kong's economic take-off in the 70s, his Yongxin Group has developed vigorously and made great progress, and is now well-known.Assets also spread across various industries.

"Let's go! Let's go to the restaurant and chat while eating." Qiao Fengyi took Fang Monan's hand and walked towards the restaurant.

The restaurant is also an antique Eight Immortals table, which is filled with traditional Cantonese morning tea.All classic refreshments.

The essence of Cantonese-style morning tea lies in spending time. Spending time is negative, but spending time is positive. Therefore, time becomes interesting and presents the fun and richness of life.

Eating morning tea is the taste of time.People must have this leisurely leisure.Different from ordinary teahouses, which only drink tea, Cantonese-style morning tea is rich and extravagant.Tea is just an excuse, and more generally Cantonese-style dim sum dishes and porridge.Drink tea, read newspapers, meet friends, chat, think about thoughts, and discuss business.Time was originally empty and needs to be filled with content, and people can choose to have morning tea.In the eyes of Chinese teachers, eating morning tea is a bad sentence with improper verb and object collocation, but here, morning tea is really something to eat!The title of tea cannot conceal the delicacy of the food.

Morning tea is carried out while eating and chatting, only talking about "Fengyue", the traditional Chinese culture.Several young people and two old people.The more they talked, the more speculative they became. The old people were amazed at the breadth of knowledge Fang Monan and the other three had, and the humorous way they spoke.It often makes the old man laugh.Qiao Fengyi was so surprised that Danfeng's eyes widened. It was rare to see her master so happy.Fang Monan and the others admired the old man, quoted scriptures, and spoke clearly and logically.Really read the books.

Having morning tea, I ate for a full two hours.After breakfast.They moved to the study room, and they had a new evaluation and understanding of each other.After the waiter brought tea, coffee, and fruit juice, he quietly retreated, and the door was closed tightly, before the conversation began.

The study room is full of mahogany furniture, which is thick and majestic.Mr. He took a sip of his tea and put down his teacup. Qiao Fengyi worriedly shook his hand, and he gently patted Didi to comfort him. "The little girl has a pretty face, and every sentence hits Huanglong straight."

The old man closed his eyes, as if he was remembering. No one disturbed him. After a while, he said, "I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it. I think I smuggled into Hong Kong back then."

"It turns out that you are really a dragon in the sea." Cheng Shixi admired him sincerely.

"Hehe...you were young and frivolous, and you were really aggressive. The natural disasters in 60-63! Lingnan was not spared, and there was a severe famine. At that time, a large number of residents fled to Hong Kong. In 62, my fellow villagers and I really I couldn't stand the hunger anymore, besides my parents, brothers and sisters in my family, it can be said that they smuggled out of concern and made a living.

At that time, meat and oil were hardly seen in the meals, and even vegetables were rare.In order to relieve my hunger, I once ate banana dregs, straw, papaya peel, sweet potato vines, and even Guanyin soil at one point.The average daily income of a farmer in our country at that time was about 7 cents, while the average daily income of a Hong Kong farmer was 70 Hong Kong dollars. The difference between the two was nearly 100 times.We used to say at that time: "Working hard for a year is not as good as the opposite 8 cents."This is the direct cause of our smuggling. "

Qiao Fengyi's eyes were a little sore, she had never heard her old man tell about these difficult years.

"The ambiguous official career is over." The old man patted Qiao Fengyi's hand reassuringly, and then said, "My fellow countrymen and I walked from Fengcheng to Pengcheng first. There are three ways to escape from Hong Kong: walking, swimming, and boating. .According to the route, there are east route, middle route and west route. Swimming is usually the first choice. We choose the west route, starting from Shekou and mangroves, and swimming across Pengcheng Bay. Swimmed to Yuen Long in the northwest of the New Territories of Hong Kong. At that time, people called our waterway smuggling as "supervisor", borrowing the chess term, and taking its meaning of "going back and forth". The description is very vivid, and the pawns move forward Arch means to cross the boundary river, you can only move forward, you cannot turn back. Many stowaways also swim across. Many educated youths who stow away know that once they set foot on this road, they cannot turn back. It will be the day when you will be born. At that time, the educated youths who stole immigrants had a saying, "When you wet your head, you must wet your feet." Many people stowed again and again. [

In my memory, the reservoirs and rivers are overcrowded in summer.Many children in my hometown have been indoctrinated by their families since they were young, "Practice swimming well and go to Hong Kong in the future".Then wading into the water.

We wading with all kinds of tools. After all, we have to swim for an hour. If we are exhausted, we may be buried in the sea. Usually, we choose car tires, life buoys, foam plastics and other life-saving tools, and some people blow up multiple condoms. hanging around the neck.After entering the water, some stowaways even recited the quotations from Mao Zedong to cheer themselves up while swimming: "Make up your mind, don't be afraid of sacrifice, overcome all difficulties, and strive for victory!"

"Hey! Laugh if you want." The old man looked at them and said with difficulty.

Fang Monan and the others laughed, and tears gradually flowed down, "The old man was close to death!" Cheng Shixi said with emotion.

"Boy, you are right. It was really close to death. At that time, the above-mentioned items were strictly controlled items. Later, even table tennis balls became one of them. Because the border guards discovered that some people even took hundreds of Two table tennis balls are strung together as a life-saving tool. After all, swimming is done by young people. Middle-aged and elderly people, children and women usually choose land smuggling, from Pengcheng Wutong Mountain and Shatoujiao generation, to climb over the border fence. In Cantonese, it is called "" In order to avoid the police dogs, some Hong Kong escapees would go to the zoo to bribe the breeders before leaving, find some tiger feces, and spread them as they walked. The police dogs would not dare to follow the smell of the feces.

At that time, the crackdown on stowaways was extremely severe.Anyone who goes to Hong Kong without legal procedures is regarded as a "treacherous defector" and will be detained if caught.And border guards are the biggest obstacle for stowaways.I heard a stowaway like us at that time, that guy stowed twelve times and set a record.On the 13th time, the border guards saw him familiar, and they were too embarrassed to arrest him again, so he managed to escape to Hong Kong.According to him, before the 60s, border guards could shoot at any stowaways who did not obey orders, and many stowaways were killed on the tidal flats and in the mountains.Since then, due to the strict order of the superiors, the phenomenon of shooting has gradually disappeared. "

Qiao Fengyi covered her mouth with tears streaming down her cheeks, "Hey! Don't worry, I'm lucky. The border guards didn't shoot. Even if I was caught, it would still be a case of containment and transformation. I'm luckier than that guy. I succeeded once." The old man laughed at himself. .

The old man fell into the memory and said, "62 was the worst time of the famine. On the road stretching for more than 4 miles, there were crowds of outflowing people, supporting the old and the young, like "the army is going south, coming fiercely." These smugglers Groups of people, each holding a [-]-foot-long wooden stick. I remember the leading stowaway said openly: "Whoever obstructs us, we will fight them with wooden sticks, rush over, and will not retreat even if we shoot !Although the place where we entered the water was closest to Hong Kong, the wind and waves here were very strong, and many people drowned here.This is the most difficult of all smuggling techniques.But because the chance of being caught by the border guards is the smallest, most people will choose to swim here. "

"There were a lot of people entering the water at that time, but as the swimming time got longer, the distance was gradually widened. Many people fell behind due to lack of energy. As a result..." the old man did not continue.He climbed to the coastline, gasping for breath, not standing excitedly on the land of Hong Kong, but he survived. At that time, he was so tired that he could no longer move his arms. If it wasn't for the help of his brothers Well, maybe he also...

However, everyone knows that although there are many successful smugglers, there are also many who were buried in the sea. Based on the situation at that time, due to hunger, their physical fitness could not support swimming for up to an hour.Moreover, all life-saving tools are strictly inspected, and many people are wading alone.It is a miracle that he survived. Swimming is very exhausting.
