Her family was originally well-off. Her parents ran some small businesses, and their life was pretty good. Unexpectedly, she got into a lawsuit because of a real estate dispute with someone in the store of the small business. Her parents were both ill and both of them died when she was twelve years old.
He died. From then on, she lived with her aunt.
She is very sensible and started taking care of the housework at a young age. She washes, cooks, cleans and takes care of her cousin every day.
When the Japanese army was about to attack Nanjing, my uncle felt deeply uneasy and insisted on taking the whole family away. All the real estate business was abandoned, which made my aunt extremely distressed. They were almost the last group to escape Nanjing and were extremely lucky to escape the shock.
The massacre. My uncle was very lucky that he saved the lives of his family.
With the war and the large number of refugees, the family continued to flee to the mainland. At that time, Liu Qiuyue was already eighteen years old, and she felt that her family's life was difficult. In Hankou, she saw a radio and television training class enrolling students, and thought it was a good opportunity.
I signed up for a reliable job. After entering, I found out that it was run by the Military Command. Some students regretted it and left within a few days. But most students were forced to stay due to the difficulties of life. After all, there were no students in the training class.
Paying tuition, taking care of food, and learning a skill. Liu Qiuyue stayed here because of this.
When Liu Qiuyue graduated, the war situation was in chaos. Liu Qiuyue sometimes followed the troops to the front line, and sometimes ran to the rear. Sometimes she worked as a translator, sometimes as a telegraph operator, managed files, worked as a clerk, and also went to the countryside.
The traffic became a little more stable after we arrived.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, she followed the bureau headquarters to Nanjing and worked in the confidential office. Her aunt and her family also returned to Nanjing. The original real estate business had long since disappeared. Her uncle found a bookkeeping job in a company, and her aunt was at home.
A small stall was set up at the door, and life became settled.
But Liu Qiuyue has always been unsettled. I don’t know why, but she, who talks little, works hard, and never causes trouble, is not favored by her bosses wherever she goes. There are always those who flatter her.
Before, Liu Qiuyue felt aggrieved, but couldn't express it.
By the time Zuo Shaoqing's second action team was established, the Confidential Office had just thrown her back to the Human Resources Department. At that time, it was the time when the Security Bureau was drastically reducing its establishment and dismissing personnel. Liu Qiuyue was uneasy and worked diligently in the Human Resources Department every day.
She wiped the tables, swept the floor, and turned on the water. As soon as the second team was established, she and some people to be laid off were sent to the second team by the Human Resources Department.
On the first day of work in the second team, Zuo Shaoqing stared at her for a full minute and asked her to prepare a roster. Zuo Shaoqing's instructions were very simple, but Liu Qiuyue did not dare to do it simply. She spent a night preparing
She made two lists, one was the list of personnel of the second operation team. The other was actually a list of all personnel in the bureau headquarters except Director Mao, and the information was detailed. She had worked in the archives office, so she knew this.
Zuo Shaoqing read two lists, stared at her for another minute, pointed to the table next to her and said, "You will work here from now on." The frightened Liu Qiuyue took root and settled down in the second operation team.
After half a month, she truly realized what it means to be busy. For the first time in eight years since she joined the army, she realized what it means to be trustworthy. All the specific work of the second team fell on her head. All reports had to be summarized here.
, compiled into a briefing and handed it over to Zuo Shaoqing for review. All daily business work was arranged downwards by her, and issues that came up from below were also reported to Zuo Shaoqing by her. She was also in charge of group expenses, and prepared monthly reports for the internal staff and
Subsidy for field service.
At that time, the Secrecy Bureau had very little funding, and in many cases it was allocated temporarily by the chairman of the committee. If it was on time, it would be fine, but if it was not on time, the salaries of the Secrecy Bureau staff might be in arrears. The bureau had to find ways to make money on its own, or even make money.
.Fortunately, there were many opportunities to make money by accepting enemy and puppet assets and raiding collaborators' merchants. Even people of Zuo Shaoqing's level could get a lot of money.
Everyone in the team knows that the young master does not like money. Zuo Shaoqing used the money he had to set up a small treasury and paid monthly subsidies to the brothers. Later, the brothers also figured it out. The powerful ones
People are fishing for money and real estate, no matter how much they fish for, there is no problem. But if the little soldiers below want to fish for a little profit and water, as long as the inspection office finds out, you will be investigated to death. So everyone should just hand over the profit and water they fished out.
Come to the group. Everyone works for me, and I work for everyone. Anyway, it will be paid back as a subsidy, so I won’t suffer any loss.
Insufficient funds and confiscation of money. With these two things in mind, the inspection office had no choice but to turn a blind eye to this matter.
Liu Qiuyue has a super memory and is super meticulous. She manages this account very clearly, which earns Zuo Shaoqing's trust.
Zuo Shaoqing went to Xufuxiang for more than a month, which made Liu Qiuyue understand the truth. Zuo Shaoqing and the unit of the Second Group were both harmed and prosperous. If Zuo Shaoqing fell, she, the lieutenant, would immediately
It will be like a kite with a broken string, blown away by the strong wind.
One day, Lucheng asked her quietly, "Will our young master be a communist?"
Liu Qiuyue's scalp felt numb for a while, and she turned around and scolded him, "Just do your job well and stop worrying about so much!"
Lu Cheng was a captain, with a higher military rank than her, but his status in the group was not as high as hers. Looking back, she realized that Lu Cheng, including the brothers below, all had the same idea as her. Zuo Shaoqing was stunned.
, everyone will be dismissed. They were the ones who were kicked out in the first place.
Zuo Shaoqing was able to come back from Xufu Lane, which made her and the brothers below breathe a long sigh of relief. Lai, who was used to being domineering and domineering like Chen Sanhu, would shrink in fear in front of Zuo Shaoqing, and there was a little bit of this.
reason.
Liu Qiuyue is worried about her aunt's family affairs.
A few months ago, something happened to my aunt's family. My uncle was ill and had tuberculosis. My uncle was the backbone of the family and must not fail. My aunt was so frightened that she sold all the valuable things in the family. Liu Qiuyue also lost all her savings.
Go in. There is no hope of curing my uncle's illness. My aunt gritted her teeth and borrowed a sum of usury money, hoping that going to a foreign hospital for treatment might be effective. Two months ago, my uncle passed away. Only one person left behind
The frightened aunt and her cousin Xu Xiaoyu, who just turned eighteen.
At this time, my aunt had already lost her energy and was sitting in a small bamboo chair, just crying silently.
Liu Qiuyue finally took Xiaoyu and packed up the things at home. There was nothing valuable in the house to begin with, but the debt collectors smashed it all up, and even a complete table, chair, and bench was gone.
Xiaoyu pulled her and whispered: "Sister, you have to save me. Those people said that if the money is not paid within ten days, they will sell me to a brothel. Then won't I die?" She cried as she said it.
stand up.
When Liu Qiuyue heard this, she felt stupid herself. The people in the Secrecy Bureau were so powerful that no one dared to mess with them. But when it came to Liu Qiuyue, there was nothing she could do.
The young master is a person with a wide range of contacts. Before going to Xufu Alley, he interacted with various people outside every day, and he also knew a lot of gangs on the ground. Not to mention these, she even sent two brothers to come forward.
To put it bluntly, those bullies would be scared to death.
But is it okay now? The young master has been back for five or six days and has not gone out even once. He only briefs in the office every day, or stands in front of the map and thinks about problems. Liu Qiuyue can guess that the issues that the young master considers are life and death.
It was a big deal. The young master was still in limbo, so could he turn around and take care of her affairs? She had no idea at all.
She held her aunt's hand and tried to persuade her. She took out all the money she had and gave it to Xiaoyu, asking her to buy some vegetables and rice. No matter what, she had to eat.
When Liu Qiuyue left her aunt's house, it was already dark. The street was quiet and there were no pedestrians. The night breeze was a bit cold, and it felt like water all over her body. She gave all her money to her aunt, so she could only walk back.
At this time, Liu Qiuyue deeply felt how lonely she was without anyone around her to rely on. She very much hoped to have a shoulder behind her, a man's shoulder. Since her parents passed away, her heart has been tight.
Yes, her body is also tight and has never relaxed. It would be nice if there was a man on his shoulders to let her relax. She thought so.
What Liu Qiuyue didn't expect was that a few months later, Zuo Shaoqing would "give" a good man to her.
In the years that followed, she and that good man comforted, encouraged, and supported each other, and finally survived the most difficult and darkest period of their lives. They both lived past the age of eighty and died one day apart in the hospital.
And just as she hoped, she walked in front and the man walked behind.
Her last memory when she was dying was of the man holding her hand and gently stroking her palm with his fingertips, as if saying: Yue'er, I'm coming up. She very much hoped that at this time
There was a smile on her face. When she left, her heart was filled with happiness.
I'm sorry to tell you that this small plot was originally off-topic. But at the end of the story, I no longer had the right atmosphere to write this small section. It can be regarded as an explanation in advance.
When Liu Qiuyue was walking on the night road that night, she did not think that even Zuo Shaoqing did not think that Cheng Yunfa was also doing internal surveillance. Of course it was arranged by Ye Gongjin. His biggest internal surveillance target at present was of course Zuo Shaoqing.
Sir. But there is another target tonight, which is Liu Qiuyue.
Cheng Yunfa not only quickly learned about Liu Qiuyue's whereabouts tonight, but also quickly learned about the situation at her aunt's house. The lender was collecting debts and threatened to sell Liu Qiuyue's cousin to a brothel, which seemed to provide him with an opportunity.
Ye Gongjin also agreed with this method. He said: "Yunfa, it's up to you how to use it."
Cheng Yunfa smiled and said: "Don't worry, Director, I will definitely find a good use for it."
A few days later, Cheng Yunfa, wearing a robe and a hat, walked into Aunt Liu Qiuyue's house.
He was very polite, claiming to be Liu Qiuyue's friend, knowing that she was in some trouble now, "Mrs. Xu, isn't it just that you owe us some loan money? I also have some friends, maybe we can clear this matter up."
Mrs. Xu was extremely excited as if she had met a savior. She kept bowing to him, "Mr. Cheng, thank you very much. We will definitely repay the money. We just ask them to give them a longer life."
Cheng Yunfa nodded repeatedly, "Mrs. Xu, the problem shouldn't be big. Besides, Miss Xiaoyu is not young anymore. Let's find something for her to do. She can earn a little bit and supplement the family income."
Mrs. Xu burst into tears, "That's great. Mr. Cheng is such a good person."
Cheng Yunfa asked Mrs. Xu to wait a few more days and tell her once there was news. Before leaving, he smiled and said to Mrs. Xu: "You may also know that Qiuyue is a strong person, and she is not willing to ask anyone for these personal matters.
Mrs. Xu, please don't tell her, lest she say I'm meddlesome and block this good thing."
Mrs. Xu said hurriedly: "Don't tell me, don't tell me, I definitely won't tell you." She sent Cheng Yunfa away with great gratitude.
Cheng Yunfa knew that the first step of his plan had been successful.
