Chapter 26

1,

Wen Qingyun's idea of ​​withdrawing from the business world was shattered, and as soon as Shen Xiaoduan left, she sat in Maoyong's accountant again, and Liu Changlin sat down opposite him, as if she had something difficult to say.Wen Qingyun suddenly became interested in playing, but she didn't ask any questions, her eyes were fixed on the account book in her hand, and she didn't look at him at all.

Liu Changlin smiled wryly for a while, "Grandma, there is something..."

"Say it quickly." Wen Qingyun laughed.

"What are you going to do with those cotton cloths?" Liu Changlin stared at Wen Qingyun.

This is another worry, there has been no news from Shen Xiaofang for almost two months, the cotton cloths are piled up in the warehouse, sooner or later it will be a matter of not buying or selling.After the last incident, Gu Fgan seemed much depressed, but Wen Qingyun was like a mirror in his heart, he would not let the Shen family go, if a single mistake fell into his hands, it would be a catastrophe for the Shen family.This batch of cloth is sparks, enough to detonate a bomb.But she was still afraid that if she sold the cloth, what should Shen Xiaofang explain when she wrote again?Thinking of this, she put away her smile and said, "Find a few caring guys to take care of them, and wait a little longer."

Liu Changlin took a deep breath, feeling like he had a toothache, "Grandma, I've already sold cloth to someone else."

Wen Qingyun suddenly realized, "So you cut it first and played it later? You know who this batch of cloth is for, how dare you?"

"Grandma, I have no other choice. An important customer needs a batch of cotton cloth. Now the market is more tense than two months ago, and there is no way to get it all together. I just decided on my own. I know it's against the rules. I don't know how you want to deal with it." All right." Liu Changlin has already done the matter, although he didn't mention a word, but the meaning of the words is already understood, and he accepts punishment and accepts punishment.

Wen Qingyun stood up, thought for a while, and then sat back down, "Since you can sell this batch of goods, this customer must be more important than my third brother. If you sell it, you will sell it, and I have settled one of my concerns. But this account Why didn't I see this one?"

Liu Changlin was a little apologetic: "The customer is short of money, so I will take credit first."

Wen Qingyun was annoyed, she trusted Liu Changlin, and entrusted Maoyong to him to watch over, and did not hide the family affairs from him, in the end, he played such a big trick under her nose.What's more, it's not that he doesn't know that this batch of cotton cloth involves a lot, and if he makes a wrong move, it will put the Shen family to death!She looked at him, and sighed after a long time, it seemed that the fate between them as guest and host was about to come to an end.

"Grandma, I guarantee that the money will arrive in the account and will not cause any loss to Mao Yong." Liu Changlin said sincerely.

"Shopkeeper Liu, I am in business, but you are different. I can see that what you want to do is a big deal. Su Maoyong is a small temple, and I don't have big ambitions. I just want to keep my family safe, of course. , you helped me, I will remember it in my heart for the rest of my life, and I will never forget it. Forget about this money, just treat it as my thank you gift." Wen Qingyun chose his words carefully.

Liu Changlin understood, he didn't blame Wen Qingyun, and nodded, "Grandma, you don't need to say anything, I'll just pack up. Wherever you need me in the future, I will do my best."

Wen Qingyun wrote out a check and handed it to Liu Changlin as severance pay.Liu Changlin refused to ask for anything, the two fought for a while, Wen Qingyun's face darkened, "Friends, you don't want me to get a reputation for being unkind and unrighteous, do you? I am in business, and some things have to be handled this way. This precedent cannot be set, I hope you can understand. But I regard you as a friend, these are two different things."

Liu Changlin sighed, "It is my blessing to have a boss like you. There is another sentence, grandma, now that the country is in crisis, it is said that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. I hope you will continue to support the Anti-Japanese War. The people will never forget you , and we will never forget you."

When Liu Changlin left, Wen Qingyun felt empty in her heart, and she didn't know who to turn to to discuss matters in the future.She wanted to find someone to help, after much deliberation, the most suitable candidate was Shen Jie.One day, he'll have to take over the business, and it's time for him to try to learn.

After Shen Jie heard it, he was completely unwilling. His wish was to join the army and serve the country, and he wanted to follow the path of the third uncle.The mother and son had a big quarrel for three days and a small quarrel for two days.After the quarrel, Shen Jie was locked in the ancestral hall again, when he would be obedient and when he would be released.Shen Zhi became Shen Jie's ally and internal correspondent, helping him deliver news.Shen Jie heard that the students have decided to apply for the military academy, and even a girl like Wei Ruoyan wants to fight the enemy, how can she kneel down?Three days later, while Gao Wang was adding sesame oil to the ancestral hall, he knocked Gao Wang unconscious and escaped from the house.I heard that many students in the city had left, and the parents sighed, but it didn't help.

It was also that night that Wen Qingyun received a letter from Shen Xiaofang. In the letter, he said that the situation in the Northeast is dangerous, logistics and supplies are difficult, and there is no hope of standing alone. General Feng Zhanhai retreated. He stayed in Jilin and changed his name to Yue Qi. Will communicate with the family in a covert way.When the letter was about to end, the handwriting began to tremble, and there were dried water stains on it. Wen Qingyun was seized by an uneasy premonition, her heartbeat was about to stop, her eyes dared not to see the last line again, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry for you. I didn't take good care of Xiaojia. At the end of last month, she sacrificed to cover her comrades during a breakout operation."

A tear crept out of the corner of his eye quietly, and the letter paper fell to the ground without a sound.The only thing to be thankful for is that Shen Xiaoru took the lead, otherwise, if he knew that his beloved daughter had an accident, he would not be able to bear it...

2,

The Maoyong store was full of people, all merchants from Pingjin, Shandong, clamoring to return the goods, and some people said that they would rather pay liquidated damages than perform the contract.Mi Fu's son, Mi Qingshan, was promoted to be the manager after Liu Changlin left. He is very clever and looks like his father back then.Maoyong's big and small things are up to him now, but he can't do this kind of large-scale return that tears up the contract.

"Everyone be quiet, I know your difficulties, but you should also think about me, Manager Bian, the porcelain you want has been delivered from Hankou, and it will arrive as soon as you talk, if you say no now, maybe I can still turn the ship around Drive back? Boss Jin, you are the general agent of our Yunwu Tea in Beiping, I have prepared all the tea for you, and you don’t want goods and money, what should I do?” Mi Qingshan wiped his sweat, “I said You guys are old friends now, you can't force me to hang myself, can you?"

The short fat man known as Boss Jin stood up and spread his hands, "Manager Mi, the July [-]th Incident, the little Japan took over Beiping, and I managed to escape with my whole family. You have to hang yourself!"

Mi Qingshan knew that what he said was the truth, and felt sorry for him, but looking around, who didn't have a hard-to-recite sutra?If this hole is opened, will other people's money be refunded?What will Su Moyong do then?
Seeing this, Boss Jin said again: "Manager Mi, if you are in trouble, why don't you ask grandma to come out, and we can tell her ourselves."

Everyone nodded, "Yes, let's tell Grandma that she can't just ignore it!"

"That's right, their Shen family has a big business, it's not bad, we can't do it, a big family is waiting for dinner."

Mi Qingshan quickly waved his hands, "Everyone, please be safe and don't be impatient. It's useless for you to run on Grandma, how about this, everyone, give me a day, I will go to Grandma to discuss it, and I will give you an answer later, how about it?"

After finally sending the whole room away, Mi Qingshan heaved a sigh of relief, "Grandma's, it's all caused by the fucking little Japan, isn't this trying to force us to death?"

The big guy, Dong Hai, cleaned up his teacups and said, "It's not just our family, the local product shops in this street are all like this. You didn't see that there are only refugees on the street who want debts. It's a mess. It's a prosperous family, Hai Gan A trading company! Hiring the Japanese to do business, what? The big grandma just throw him out, this guy, a hardcore big traitor, will be dealt with sooner or later!"

"Okay, what nonsense are you talking about, hurry to the back and watch." Mi Qingshan sighed heavily after driving away Donghai, what didn't he know?He sympathizes with those businessmen, they are all serious and good businessmen, Maoyong's old customers, he has been dealing with them since he was an apprentice under Liu Changlin, and they would not come to make trouble if there is no other way.But he was more aware of the Shen family's situation, so he ran away from the second young master and the third young master. The second young lady Shen Jia died outside without even seeing her bones. Wen Qingyun fell seriously ill and lay in bed for half a year. I just raised my spirits and wanted to talk about finding a husband's family for the eldest lady Shen Xuan, but who knew that the obedient and docile eldest lady would never marry, but actually said that she was going to become a monk, causing troubles all over the city.The affairs of my own family were enough to worry about, and the Wei family, who had been dating for three generations, came to the door again, saying that they didn't know at first, but later found out that Wei Ruoyan was hooked up by Shen Jie and asked the Shen family to pay for a living... Wen Qingyun, who had been aggressive for half her life, was suddenly discouraged, as if all hope was gone, how could she care about business?In addition, there was a Gu Fagan who was always checking or inspecting. The Shen family's trading shop was closed and sold, and there was only one room left to maintain.The Shen family still had a bit of an old foundation. In the first few years, the Dapu Wharf was going to be rebuilt. The Director of the Port Authority came to be a lobbyist in person to raise funds. big pier.It was just built last year, and it looks like it can make profits and dividends. Who knows that the damn Japanese planes came to make trouble, the boats couldn't stop, the good wharf was abandoned, and all shareholders lost their money.The Shen family suffered even more.The business in the city is like this, and it is not easy in the countryside.There was a drought last year, and the fields in the countryside could not be rented. When it was time to spend money for the New Year, Wen Qingyun had no choice but to sell half of the original Shen's house on the back street, including the garden and the north courtyard, for a sum of money. It's just past the New Year's Eve!Yan Maoyong received a few businesses in the first year, and it seemed to be booming. In fact, part of the payment received was kept in the account, and more than half was paid to the family. a lot.How can he have the money to take it out now that he is blocking the door to pay?
Dong Hai, who had just left, turned around and walked in again, whispering, "Manager, Guangzhou called, asking why our bamboo mat hasn't arrived yet."

Mi Qingshan frowned and asked, "What did you say?"

"I said it might be delayed on the road. They were looking for you, but I said you were not here."

Mi Qingshan nodded, "Yes, that's it." This was another bad deal. The bamboo mats that had been booked were "requisitioned" by the passing national army when they walked to Ningbo. Go buy another batch and plug this hole. Now it seems that it is too late whether it is time or money.

Donghai looked at him, "But they said they would send someone to come. If we breach the contract, they will sue us in court."

Mi Qingshan turned pale with shock, "What?"

Dong Hai had a bitter face, "That's what people say, and I can't stop it."

At this time, Mi Qingshan understood that he could only go to see Wen Qingyun. Even if he could stand up to those who asked for money in the north, he would have nothing to do with those who wanted to sue the officials in the south. Let him know the incident, the Shen family must be in big trouble.

At this time, Wen Qingyun was past middle age, with wrinkles around her eyes and gray hair on her temples, she was wearing a homely bamboo and white blouse, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, half leaning on the imperial concubine's couch.Mi Qingshan said one by one, looking at Wen Qingyun's face from time to time, seeing that her head did not lift her eyelids, her face was as sinking as water.

"Grandma, what do you think we should do?"

Wen Qingyun slowly stopped what she was doing, hung up the Buddhist beads, raised her head to look at Mi Qingshan, and said word by word: "Qingshan, I told you before that when you are the manager, you are in charge of big and small matters. There is only one thing, no matter what happens, you must guard Maoyong, this sign was put up by my father-in-law and cannot be destroyed in my hands, this is the only rule I set for you, understand?" Said these words When she was walking, a sharp sharpness flashed in her eyes, making people see that the woman who knelt in front of the coffin a long time ago had never aged.

Mi Qingshan nodded, he knew what to do and gained confidence.He thought it was ridiculous to actually believe the rumors outside, thinking that the Shen family was going to collapse, and the grandma would also collapse.It was because they hadn't seen the real Wen Qingyun. Even though she was immersed in sadness, she could still stand up and handle things at critical moments!

Wen Qingyun took out a jewelry box from the cabinet and handed it to Mi Qingshan. "Take it, and you can exchange it for some money. If you lose the money from those customers, Guangzhou will pay you as much as you should in the contract, and you won't be allowed to miss a penny."

Mi Qingshan hesitated, "Grandma, the money from Guangzhou can be paid, but those... To be honest, they broke the contract, so we don't need to deal with them. Otherwise, if everyone pays a little bit, the amount is too big."

"They can't help it either." Wen Qingyun shook her head, "I lost everything overnight, and I just count on this little money to survive. We can still have a lot of goods left, and we will slowly find another place to sell them, and the losses will be reduced." Not much. All right, just do as I say."

3,

Mi Qingshan mortgaged the jewelry to the bank and brought back the promissory note.First, he can pay the merchants from the north, and second, he wants to discuss with Guangzhou to see if he can take a step back. Although the contract states that the compensation is based on the original price of the item, but now that the price of bamboo mats has dropped, if he uses this It will save a lot of money to buy goods.Later, he thought countless times that if he had remitted the money directly to Guangzhou in the bank at that time, what happened later would not have happened.It's a pity that there is no medicine for regret in this world. Most of the things that make people feel bad are just a mistake.

Mi Qingshan clearly remembered that he locked the promissory note in the account drawer.There are two keys in the drawer, one is in his hands, and the other is in Wen Qingyun's hands.Early the next morning, he opened the drawer to check as usual, but found that the promissory note had disappeared. He was stunned, his eyes and heart were blank, and cold sweat broke out on his body.This is not a joke, the promissory note is the lifeline of Maoyong, if it is gone, Maoyong is over.He disassembled the entire accounting room to search, under the table, behind the cabinet, and even lifted every floor, but there was still no trace.After tossing all morning, he had to accept this reality, and sat down on the chair, only to realize that the big guy Donghai never showed up!
Knowing that Dong Hai was the only one who came out with the cashier's check from the bank... He didn't dare to think about it. He hurriedly grabbed the phone and dialed Huitong Bank, holding a ten thousandth hope in his heart that the cashier's check hadn't been cashed yet.There was a basin of cold water pouring down on the other side of the bank. As soon as the door opened this morning, someone came to withdraw money.It looks like a pair of stature, and it really is the East China Sea.

Mi Qingshan stood blankly, how should he explain to Wen Qingyun?Even if she said it, would she believe it?The phone on the desk rang suddenly, and he was startled, staring stupidly, trying to reach out his hand, but stopped halfway.He was afraid that it was Guangzhou who came to ask for the account, and even more afraid that it was Wen Qingyun who came to ask about the progress.No matter which one, he couldn't answer it!
After a quarter of an hour, Mi Qingshan gradually came back to his senses. He tidied up the messy things that had been thrown on the floor, pulled his clothes, wiped his face, got up and walked downstairs.

Today's Yan Maoyong looks much more refreshed. The gold bosses came to collect their respective money last night, said a thousand thanks, and dispersed overnight.A few boys were tidying up the store with brooms and rags. When they saw him coming down, they stood still and said hello.Mi Qingshan nodded, told them to watch the store carefully, and then went straight to the door, the guys didn't ask much, what was Manager Mi going to do and when would he come back, there was no need to tell them.There was a clever guy, seeing his strange expression, subconsciously followed him to the door, watching him walking faster and faster, he stopped walking when he reached the Qiangwei River, and walked straight into the river!
When Mi Qingshan woke up, he was already in his room in Maoyong's backyard. Wen Qingyun was sitting on a chair by the window, holding Buddhist beads in his hand, and staring at him softly.

Mi Qingshan burst into tears, the tall man felt wronged like a child, "Grandma, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for Maoyong, the promissory note is gone..."

Wen Qingyun interrupted him, "If it's gone, it's gone. I'll try to find a solution, why bother? Could it be that the problem will be solved if you die?"

Mi Qingshan couldn't lift his head in shame, and wept.

"A worthless thing." Wen Qingyun was a little annoyed, and stood up suddenly, "You are a man, and you cry like a woman when something happens, is it interesting?"

"Grandma..."

"Something has happened, so let's find a solution. What's more important than life?" Wen Qingyun walked to the bed, took out a handkerchief, and handed it to Mi Qingshan, "Listen, I don't have time to make you hypocritical right now Hurry up and get up for me, go to Huitong Bank and ask if you can mortgage the shop to borrow some money. I will go to my old friend and ask, see who can help us. Remember, people want to live, the sky will not fall !"

When it was getting dark, Mi Qingshan went back to Maoyong dejectedly. He spent an afternoon at Huitong Bank, and he was told at last that Maoyong was just empty, how much is it worth?Seeing that he wanted to kneel down and look pitiful, the bank manager couldn't bear it, and said in a low voice, the current situation, the bank is also precarious, and the higher-ups have issued a death order, jewelry and antiques can be accepted, but real estate stores and other things that cannot be taken away No, don't talk about Yan Maoyong, even if you send the Shen family's deed, it won't work.

Wen Qingyun's experience this afternoon was similar to his. She went to the Fuhai Hotel, and before she could open her mouth, Yan Bohai complained first.She bit the bullet and went to Wei's house again. Wei Yi'an was distributing resettlement money to the workers who escaped from the mine. Only then did she know that the Wei's mine was expropriated by the government. If you borrow money, you can't say it again.The situation of the next few companies is similar. It seems that if they want to raise money in Haizhou, it is bound to be difficult.

Dong Guy Ji was frowning like he was in the counting room.It took a while for Wen Qingyun to speak, "Qingshan, go and book a boat ticket to Shanghai for me. I'll go find my second brother to find a solution."

Mi Qingshan said in a muffled voice: "Grandma, I will accompany you. The road is not safe, and there is someone to take care of you."

Wen Qingyun shook her head, "Someone has to watch the house. After I leave, remember that no matter what happens, wait until I come back."

Mi Qingshan nodded, his eyes were red, "Grandma..."

"Okay, don't say anything weird or not." Wen Qingyun supported the table and stood up, "I will punish you after I finish handling the matter. Remember, from today onwards, you will get half of your salary. The rest is for me."

"Okay." Mi Qingshan nodded heavily, feeling a little better at last.

Wen Qingyun didn't make it to Shanghai. In fact, the ship didn't even leave the dock before hearing the news that Shanghai Port was occupied by Japanese warships.Her heart sank heavily, and her last ray of hope hit the south wall.She has no idea what to do next.Just when he was on the verge of despair, Mi Qingshan received a call from Huitong Bank. The board of directors of the bank held a meeting to study and decided to agree to Maoyong's mortgage loan, but for the sake of insurance, they asked for the mortgage and Shen's mansion.Mi Qingshan's hand holding the microphone began to tremble, "Okay, okay, okay, I'll tell Grandma, we'll see you tomorrow!" Putting down the phone, he immediately ran to Shen's house to meet Wen Qingyun, this is the last thing that can save Mao Yong Here's your chance!

Wen Qingyun thought for a while, then nodded, the matter has come to this point, she can't think of any other way.When she took out the deed from the cabinet, she still hesitated.After all, this is the foundation of the Shen family, and it is easy to hand it over. If she can't get it back, how should she explain to the elders of the Shen family?

Mi Qingshan didn't dare to urge him, and just looked at it calmly.

Wen Qingyun smiled wryly, "Qingshan, how do you think we got to this point?"

"Grandma, don't worry, even if it takes my life, I won't let the house fall into other people's hands." Mi Qingshan promised with tears in his eyes.

After the house deed was handed over and the Guangzhou side received the compensation, Mi Qingshan began to try his best to find clients. He wanted to earn enough money within three months to redeem the Shen family mansion.

Counting the goods, contacting buyers, packing and shipping, Youmi Qingshan went all out to set an example, the guys were naturally full of energy, and Maoyong presented a lively scene that he hadn't seen for a long time.What excited Mi Qingshan the most was that someone from Beiping took the initiative to contact him and wanted to take over as the general agent of Yunwu Tea in the local area!People here have said it well, whether you are Japanese or Chinese, you must drink tea, right?Fearing that Mi Qingshan would not be at ease, he even put down the down payment, agreeing that as long as the goods arrive, he can pay in full.This will solve the urgent needs of the Shen family and Yan Maoyong.Wen Qingyun was also very happy to hear that, but just to be on the safe side, she asked Mi Qingshan to go to Peiping herself.Mi Qingshan also had this plan, but just outside Beiping, the Japanese suddenly appeared, arrested him as a national army spy, brought him to the gendarmerie, and beat him to death!

The merchant who said he was going to be the general manager never showed up again, and two full carts of Yunwu tea filled the stomachs of the Japanese occupying army, and Maoyong only paid [-]% of the down payment.At this time, there is less than a month before the deadline set by the bank!

In the magnificent office of the Haigan Trading Company, Shen Hao and Xiaochuan Tsushima were drinking tea and chatting. Shen Hao lit a cigar, and the corners of his mouth curled up in satisfaction, "Mr. Xiaochuan, you still have a way, thinking of borrowing money from the bank to that woman, she It never occurred to me that the deed is in my hands. As long as she doesn't pay, Maoyong is mine."

Xiaochuan Tsushima nodded, "There is also the Shen family."

Shen Hao emphasized, "The Shen family is mine. Mr. Xiaochuan, this is what we agreed in advance. Half of the shares in Maoyong belong to you, and the house belongs to me."

Xiaochuan Tsushima laughed loudly, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in that house. But you just want to return home."

Shen Hao sneered, "Yes, I said, sooner or later, I will go back and become the real master of the Shen family!"

4,

People may all have premonitions, and premonitions are always good and not bad.Wen Qingyun hasn't had a good night's sleep since handing over the deed of the house. On the surface, she is still the same as before. Every morning, she wakes up and goes to the greenhouse to see Shen Xuan. After Shen Cheng leaves, Shen Xuan is determined not to marry. Made a bed with flowers as companions.The already introverted character is now even more silent, often Wen Qingyun asks ten questions, but she doesn't answer a single one.But she knew it in her heart, perhaps better than anyone else, so this month, she didn't water or fertilize, and let a house of flowers fend for themselves.Unable to persuade Wen Qingyun, she turned to look at Shen Zhi.In the past few years, Shen Zhi has also changed. She was originally a chaotic girl who could only follow her brothers and sisters around, but suddenly she had scheming and ideas, and she became a famous figure in the school. She is indispensable for charity performances.In the second year after Shen Jie left home, Shen Zhi moved into the South Courtyard, bringing strangers back from time to time, chatting and holding meetings, and making a fuss for half the night.Wen Qingyun didn't dare to intervene, and didn't dare to ignore it, so she coughed twice outside the yard, seeing people disperse, sometimes people disperse, most of the time the people inside heard it as if they couldn't hear it.She was most worried that one day, Shen Zhi would also leave, so she had to see it every day to be at ease.

The news that Mi Qingshan was captured by the Japanese spread back to Haizhou, Wen Qingyun felt a fishy sweetness in her throat, and spurted out a mouthful of blood!

The tide is over.Wen Qingyun leaned on the imperial concubine's couch and muttered to herself, while the old butler Gao Wang stood aside, he had one worse thing, he didn't want to speak, but had to.

"Grandma, Huitong Bank called and said that if they can't pay back the money, they will ask the creditor to collect the house."

Wen Qingyun frowned, and asked, "Creditor? The money was borrowed from the bank. Why did there appear to be a creditor?"

"I also asked. They said that the bank was responsible for contacting the guarantee, and the money was a private lending." Gao Wang was obviously old, with his whole face drooping, and he looked listless.

"No," Wen Qingyun straightened up, "That's not what they said when they borrowed money."

"Grandma, I went to inquire. Do you know who is our creditor?" It was a knife to stretch the neck, and a knife to shrink the neck. Gao Wang simply said, "It's the Haigan Trading Company! Our young master joined the Japanese, Get over the shop and the house."

"Senior executive, tell me, is there anything we can do now?"

"A solution? Unless you find Dong Hai, that bastard will be ruined in his hands." Mentioning that kid, Gao Wang hated the roots of his teeth itching.

Wen Qingyun smiled wryly, "Mi Qingshan has been to their house, and the family has moved away long ago. No one has seen him before, and there are so many people, where can I find him?"

"This kid, it's not going to end well." Gao Wang could only curse one sentence to relieve his hatred.

What they don't know is that Donghai has now arrived in Manchuria, all of this was secretly instigated by Xiaochuan Tsushima, who first asked someone to secretly escort Donghai's family to Xinjing, and then threatened Donghai to submit.Donghai stole the promissory note, exchanged it for a boat ticket, and went to find his family.He thought Xiaochuan Tsushima would keep his promise and the family would survive with food and shelter.But what the boat Tsushima prepared for them was another fate.When they arrived in the Northeast, Donghai's family was escorted onto a stuffy tank truck and arrived near Harbin.The drop-off area looked deserted, just a gray compound surrounded by a wire fence.In the terrified expressions of his fellow travelers, Dong Hai sensed the danger, but unfortunately it was too late.This is the notorious 731. Donghai watched his family members die miserably one by one, and his heart was filled with regret.But for many things, once a choice is made, there is no turning back.

"I can't help it." Wen Qingyun was silent for a while, and finally admitted the fact, "Senior executives, prepare for the next step. Don't wait for them to come and drive us away. Let's move it ourselves! Bad things are good things, the Japanese are about to come in. Haizhou is not our world anymore, let's hide, maybe we can live in peace and stability."

Gao Wang nodded with tears in his eyes, "Grandma, I understand!"

Wen Qingyun moved the Shen family to a large courtyard in Dongcheng, which shocked Haizhou people no less than the abdication of the emperor or the dropping of bombs by Japanese planes.Although her courtyard is also the property of the Shen family, although she tried her best to let the two young ladies sit in the closed car.When Shen Xuan and Shen Zhi got out of the car, people squeezed over to the exact second, saw them, and then clicked their tongues, look, this is the old girl, look, this is one of the twins.A down-and-out phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken, how will you live in the future?There were also people standing in the crowd shaking their heads and thinking, watching him build a tall building, seeing his building collapse... Shen Xuan and Shen Zhi wished they could put on the invisibility cloak and escape this embarrassment.Wen Qingyun walked more and more slowly, stood still at the door, turned around, and looked at everyone.

"Moving today, thank you for coming to support us," she smiled. "From now on, the neighbors will live in the street. Please bear with me if there is anything you can't get to. The house is messy, so I won't invite everyone to sit in. Another day If you have time, everyone is welcome to be our guests." After finishing speaking, he turned around, leaving a silence and astonishment.

It took a while before someone said, look, this is the demeanor of a grandma.How else can I say that they are the first ones in our Haizhou City!
Everyone stood for a while, feeling bored, and parted ways.

Most of the servants of the Shen family stayed in the old house. Shen Hao said that as long as they were willing, he would never dismiss them.These words are very respectable. Many servants who had been critical of Shen Hao and Dongmei's family completely changed their positions and willingly served the new master. Quite contemptuous.The most puzzling thing is Qiaofeng, who belongs to Dongmei's room. When Dongmei left, she didn't follow her. Now that Dongmei came back, she moved out.She told people that making money can also violate one's conscience.She would rather suffer a little bit than let people scold her as a traitor.Gao Wang's son chose to stay, and Shen Hao promoted him to be the second housekeeper. He was rewarded ten yuan when he entered the door, which was his father's one month's salary.Shen Hao said that as long as Gao Wang is willing to stay, he will pay 20 yuan a month.This is double his previous salary, and there will be a red envelope at the end of the year.Gao Wang shook his head. He is old, and money is of little use to him. Living with the grandma makes life harder and makes him feel at ease.

Dongmei sat on the imperial concubine's couch, watched with cold eyes, spat on the ground, said a word between her teeth, get out!

Gao Wang rolled away, and hurried to catch up with Wen Qingyun.There is no need to say more about the loyalty before the saddle and behind the horse, just one look at each other's hearts will make it clear.There is nothing to put in the house, the yard is dilapidated, but clean, after calming down, it turns out that the Shen family doesn't have a lot of people, and Wen Qingyun lives in the main house with her two young ladies.Gao Wangdai slept in the West Wing, and Xiao Duozi slept a lot, so he occupied a side building.Qiaofeng is in charge of cooking, and her husband Yingzhu does some heavy chores in the yard.Allocation is done, Wen Qingyun is happy, it is really a refreshing family.

The first meal was eaten by the big guys. Wen Qingyun said, now we are a family, and unnecessary rules can be saved. Of course, Gao Wang and the others refused, and they stood there in fear. Wen Qingyun felt very angry It's funny, and it's not forced.After dinner, she brought Shen Xuan and Shen Zhi into the bedroom, looked around the faces of the two daughters, sighed and said, I have wronged you.

Shen Xuan didn't say anything, and Shen Zhi said carelessly: "There's nothing to be wronged about. Many of my classmates live in this kind of place. I think it's pretty good. At least it's better than riding on the necks of the people and dominating them. Besides, They are all subjugated slaves, so who cares where they live?"

Wen Qingyun ignored Shen Zhi's argument, and was used to her occasional shocking words, but she was worried that Shen Xuan would not be able to accept it, she put everything in her heart, was too depressed, and would cause big trouble instead.

Shen Xuan rarely showed a smile, "Mother, I'm fine."

Wen Qingyun nodded, planning to let Yingzhu build a small flower shed in the backyard when there is nothing else to do tomorrow, so that Shen Xuan can have a place to relax.

After a whole day of tossing around, Wen Qingyun fell asleep in a daze after two o'clock in the morning, and just after sleeping for a while, she was woken up by the sound of knocking on the door.She sat up with her clothes on, and heard Gao Wang's sluggish footsteps in the yard, and Shen Xiaoduan's rarely anxious voice, "Open the door!"

The small main room was full of people again, Shen Xiaoduan stood on the luggage, looked at Wen Qingyun questioningly, and asked, "Sister-in-law, what is going on?"

Wen Qingyun was also stunned, "I wrote you a letter, didn't you see it?"

After listening to Wen Qingyun's short but clear explanation, Shen Xiaoduan lost his temper. "Why did you tell me now? Why didn't you say a word all these years? You know that the house and Maoyong are my father's life's painstaking efforts. He gave them to you before he died, hoping that you can keep them, no Let you give it away!"

Wen Qingyun swallowed a mouthful of spit, and said with difficulty, "Second brother, I tried my best."

Gao Wang and Xiao Duozi didn't dare to answer, but nodded frequently.

Shen Xiaoduan sneered, with raised eyebrows, he looked exactly the same as Shen Xiaoru, "Do your best? Is this the result of your hard work?"

Wen Qingyun supported the table and stood up, "That's enough!" She turned cold, not angry, and stared at the righteous Shen Xiaoduan, "At this point in the matter, I admit that I have mishandled something, I shouldn't believe it easily Others have fallen into their trap. You ask me why I didn’t tell you in advance, even if I tell you, is it useful? They have been thinking about it for too long, and they won’t give up if they don’t get it. Can you come back and fight against them, or do you want to Drive the Japanese out of China by your own strength? You can't do anything, or you wouldn't be standing here now..."

These words hurt Shen Xiaoduan's self-esteem, because what she said was right.He couldn't do much, the warship was moored at Wusongkou, staring at Shanghai Bund, and the streets were full of refugees from Northeast China and North China. His clinic became a rescue station. In addition to seeing the doctor, he also provided disaster relief!He can still bear these, after all, this is the predicament faced by the whole country and nation.But what he couldn't accept was that Huanzi, who had always been indifferent to the world, was assassinated in the back alley of the clinic by the anti-rape team under Du Yuesheng's sect as a Japanese spy!The moment he saw Huanzi's cold body, he realized that what he thought his strength and independence were all illusions. All these years, it was Huanzi's strength that supported him, staying away from the turmoil of the world, acting independently and recklessly.Now that Huanzi is dead, he can't do anything.That's why he fled Shanghai in a hurry and returned to Haizhou City.He wanted to return to the shelter of his "home" to survive, but unexpectedly, his "home" was gone.

"Xiao Duozi, go and tidy up the east wing and let the second brother live first." Wen Qingyun didn't know the details, but her piercing eyes had already guessed how much, she walked to Shen Xiaoduan, "Second brother, what's the matter?" Let's talk about it tomorrow, now, you should rest."
