Floating Song in Troubled Times: The Reborn Business Girl of the Republic of China

Chapter 24
"Too weak!" Xia Qingqian rubbed her numb arm, very dissatisfied with her speed and strength just now, if she was a little lighter, she might miss it.It seems that I have exercised this body earlier.

"He seems to know me?" Reaching out his hand to turn the man's face, Xia Qingqian naturally did not forget the last words he said before he fainted.A pair of red phoenix eyes, born to harm women, searched around in my mind, but there is no such person.

I'm afraid it's not a good thing, and it deserves to be knocked out by myself.

Standing up slowly, he casually kicked Yang Yu a few times. "Miss Ben is in a good mood, and I will let you suffer less today. No one has ever survived while following me, and you are the first."

Looking around, he immediately dragged Yang Yu who was on the ground to the depths of the alley.In the alley, there are daily sundries near the walls, broken water tanks, pillars supporting clothes, dust everywhere, and spider webs.

"This is a place where the ground is the bed and the sky is the quilt. You can also enjoy the night view and have a good night's sleep. Don't thank Miss Ben too much." Spread the damaged bamboo cage and some straw on Yang Yu's body .

From a distance, there are no flaws, and camouflage is simply a piece of cake for me.

"Uncle Zhang, has Qingqian come back? You go to the place where people go to the gate and wait. If you come back, call home." This daughter, who has been out for a whole day, still dares to follow her Throwing away, the courage really became bigger.

"Don't worry, the child will grow up anyway, and he will have his own family in the future." Xia Mengguo naturally understood what his wife thought.

"I understand. Qingqian has been with me since she was a child, and she has grown up suddenly. She doesn't need me anymore. It's just a little lost." Mrs. Xia leaned into her husband's arms aggrieved.

"Hey, why are you still like a child? I'm not with you." Looking at his wife's shy face, Xia Mengguo became more and more gentle.

In the quiet night, the cool evening breeze brings bursts of floral fragrance.Occasionally, there was a piercing sound in my ears, the shops were closed, only dance halls and movie theaters, and there were still people's voices in the theater.

Occasionally, a few cars galloped by on the road, the speed was so fast that the passers-by next to them ran away in horror.Inside the car sat a seductive and charming young woman with red lips, happily looking at the person in front of her who fell to the ground because of her car, and the man beside her watching the woman having fun, the car flew across the sky like a shooting star, accompanied by With low cursing and painful wailing.

"Oh, what a crime! It's not easy to live, and you have to be ruined by such a beast." The aunt held the rag in her hand and said angrily.

"Does this happen often?" Xia Qingqian put down the spoon in his hand and looked at the figure lying motionless on the ground in the distance.In the distance, two people wearing clothes similar to patrolmen walked past.

But after only staying for a few minutes, he supported the people on the ground and walked towards the distance.The bright red bloodstains were just like the red lips of the woman who was teasing on the car just now, dazzling and alluring.

Although death is a common occurrence for him, it is only because of his profession.If such a thing happened in the 21st century, I am afraid it will be blamed by the whole society.

"About two or three times a month, most of them are drunk people, sometimes children. The world is in chaos, and human life is the cheapest thing. If you die, that's all. Pity the living. .

No one in the family would have guessed that he was dead, and he was still staring stupidly, and he would never see him for the rest of his life. "Auntie let out a long sigh of relief, and sat casually on a stool beside her, with her hands wrapped in chaos, her tone was not as intense as before, as if she was talking about family matters, and she was talking about trivial matters in the neighborhood .

Xia Qingqian suddenly couldn't eat any more, and her originally happy mood became heavy.

I have to face up to my situation at this time, in 1934, the 23rd year of the Republic of China.In an era of wind and rain, what else can you hold on to? Maybe tomorrow you will quietly leave this world.

"Second Miss, you're finally back. You scared me to death. I'll call the master right now." Seeing the figure in the distance, Uncle Zhang immediately yelled loudly. He was worried all night, fearing that something might happen to Second Miss. I don't need my old life anymore.

Xia Qingqian looked at Uncle Zhang apologetically, his old cheeks were full of years of wind and frost, but his eyes were firm and simple.

"Uncle Zhang, I'm sorry, I won't do it in the future."

"Second Miss, it's okay, just let me, an old guy, follow you from now on." Uncle Zhang smiled brightly, showing his yellowed teeth, and looked at Xia Qingqian kindly.

"okay, I get it."

"Mom, where is my father?" Xia Qingqian looked for Xia Mengguo as soon as he entered the door, but unfortunately only saw Mrs. Xia.

"It's in the study! What's the matter? Is something wrong? You child, you don't know how to wear more clothes when you go out, your hands are cold." Mrs. Xia held Xia Qingqian's hand distressedly, wanting to continue talking But he couldn't bear it, so he could only stare blankly.

My daughter has really changed. She is independent, assertive, and courageous. She knows it is a good thing, but she still worries.

"Mom, I'll go up to find Dad first, and you should go to bed early, so don't wait for me anymore. I'm already old enough to be a mother. I won't be bullied by others anymore, so you can rest assured." Although the woman who has always loved her is not her real mother, she is really grateful for the love that radiates from this woman, and she is willing to integrate into the Xia family and become the real Xia Qingqian.

"Okay, okay, mom knows, my Qingqian has finally grown up, but in mom's heart, she will always be that clingy little girl."

Mrs. Xia looked at Xia Qingqian in relief, her eyes were red, but her heart was as sweet as honey.

"What's the matter?" Xia Mengguo looked at the daughter who appeared in his study at this time with differences.She hadn't forgotten that this girl would never come in as long as she was in the study.When I wasn't there, I turned the study room upside down.For this matter, he had a headache for a month, and every time he came back, he followed up like a thief.

Xia Qingqian smiled awkwardly. She naturally knew the great achievements of the original owner, and being looked at by her father's weird eyes, no matter how thick-skinned she was, it didn't help.

"Dad, I want to go to school, go to college, and go to the same school as my sister."

Now it was Xia Mengguo's turn to be restless, he was not old yet, and his hearing was not bad.

"Are you sure you want to go to Jinghua University, and those people in it, have you considered it?" Since his daughter was discharged from the hospital and regained her intelligence, Xia Mengguo has also considered going to school, but his wife is unwilling, so he has been procrastinating.However, the original plan was to go to high school. After all, the knowledge in college is too deep. Before that, my daughter only studied Chinese, Tang poetry and Song Ci at home.
