"Girl, who are you looking for?" Jing's mother looked at the girl at the door and asked.
This is a girl about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing shabby clothes that are heavily patched, with frostbite scars on her face, and her complexion is sallow.
The girl also carried a sleeping baby on her back.
"Auntie, is this Ho's house on Honolulu Road?" the girl asked.
"It's the He family." Jing's mother nodded, "Girl, who are you?"
"Who is Jin Kemujin from the patrol room?" the girl asked again.
"Mr. Jin is my wife's younger brother." Jing's mother frowned, "Girl, what's the matter with you?"
"Great." The girl's face showed joy, "Is Mrs. He at home?"
"Girl, what do you want from my wife?" Jing's mother asked.
…
"Mother Jing, who is it?" Mrs. He asked inside.
"Madam, a little girl said she wants to see you, madam."
"Girl doll?" Mrs. He was puzzled and walked to the door as she spoke.
"Are you Mrs. He?" The girl looked at Mrs. He and asked, "The sister of the housing finance manager on patrol?"
"I am." Mrs. He frowned, she thought this girl was a little weird.
"What's your son's name?" the girl asked again.
Aguan?!
Mrs. He's expression changed. She hadn't heard anyone mention her son's name for a long time.
Then, her eyes rested on the little baby in the small backpack the girl was carrying.
Mrs. He's breathing was rapid, her figure was swaying, she held the door, forced herself to calm down, and said, "Come in and talk."
"Mother Jing, close the door."
"Eh."
…
"Girl, do you know my Aguan?" Mrs. He asked.
"Madam." The girl took off her backpack and carefully took the baby out of the basket, "This is your granddaughter."
"What?"
"This is the daughter of Captain He and Nurse Huang, your granddaughter," the girl said.
Mrs. He suddenly stepped forward and took the sleeping little girl from the girl's hand.
The little girl was sleeping soundly, with a sallow face and thin muscles, which made her feel distressed.
Like, so similar.
The little girl's face is very similar to Aguan's when she was a child, and her eyebrows are very similar to those of her daughter-in-law Huang Xiaolan.
She hugged the little girl as if she were holding a treasure, "Girl, what, what is going on?"
"Our team encountered an ambush by the Japs. When we were breaking through, Nurse Huang handed Little Victory to me and told me that if I could make it out alive, I would take Little Victory to Shanghai to find my grandma."
…
Fallen into a Japanese ambush?
Breakout?
Mrs. He's heart seemed to be blocked by a big stone. She asked anxiously, "Miss, how is Xiaolan doing now?"
"I don't know, the team was broken up." The girl's tone was low.
"Where's Aguan?"
"Captain He is not with us."
"Girl, how did you get here?"
"It was difficult to escape all the way. The Japanese were searching the mountain so hard that I took Little Victory to hide during the day and rush on the road at night." A smile appeared on the girl's tired face.
"Thank you, girl, for your hard work. Thank you so much." Mrs. He said excitedly, looking at the little girl who had gone through many vicissitudes of life.
"No hard work, no hard work." The little girl waved her hands repeatedly, "I finally see you. I completed the task assigned to me by Nurse Huang."
Small victory!
"Her name is Victory?"
"Well, Victory, He Shengli." The girl nodded vigorously, "It was the name given by Captain He, which means Victory in the Anti-Japanese War."
While talking, the little girl licked her dry lips, her stomach growled, and the little girl looked embarrassed.
"You're hungry, girl."
"I asked for some food along the way," the little girl said, looking at Little Victory.
Mrs. He immediately understood that the little girl had decided to save all the food she had finally got for Xiao Shengli.
"Mother Jing, look at what's available and bring some over first." Mrs. He quickly ordered, "Make some sugar porridge."
"I know, ma'am."
"Girl, what's your name?"
"My name is Tong Wenshu, and I am a field nurse in the team." The little girl said proudly.
"Good, good boy, good boy." Mrs. He said with red eyes.
She looked down at her granddaughter who was sleeping soundly in her arms, feeling deep sorrow in her heart.
…
The car is driving on the crowded road.
Trumpets sounded one after another.
The driver of a Citroen car honked his horn to signal oncoming cars to give way to him.
The oncoming car not only refused to give way, but also made a gesture to indicate to him to get out of the way and let him go first.
The Citroen driver got angry and was about to speak. Then he saw clearly the license plate of the car on the opposite side. He was so frightened that he quickly made gestures with a smile and turned the steering wheel to get out of the way.
"Acan, why did you let him?" the young man in the back seat put down the newspaper in his hand and asked with a frown.
"Master, that's Mr. Cheng's motorcade," the driver said quickly.
"'Mr. Little Cheng'? Cheng Qianfan?" The young man snorted coldly, but said nothing more.
Just a few days after he returned to Shanghai, his father repeatedly told him which people he should not mess with, and one of them was Cheng Qianfan, even though he actually did not take this small French Concession Central Police Station deputy chief inspector seriously.
However, he did not dare not listen to his father's words.
…
"Brother Fan, the car just now belongs to Hou Tingfu, the Chinese manager of Macquarie Bank." Li Hao glanced at the license plate opposite, turned to Cheng Qianfan and said.
Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly. He raised the car curtain and was about to say hello to Hou Tingfu, but he saw a young man in the back seat, and the young man was also looking over.
Cheng Qianfan smiled and nodded.
The other person looked at him expressionlessly.
"Who is sitting in the car?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"I don't know. Do you need me to arrange for someone to find out?" Li Hao asked.
"No need." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and asked Li Hao, "Is the matter done?"
"Well, I'm looking for Meng Kui from the Target Range Prison." Li Hao said, "This guy has been eager to get into Brother Fan for a long time. As soon as I approached him, he patted his chest and agreed."
In Cheng Qianfan's mind, a sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked face appeared in Cheng Qianfan's mind, with a face that nodded and bowed every time he saw him.
"Keep an eye on this person." Cheng Qianfan ordered.
He knew clearly that Wang Hengyi was a member of the military commander, but he still dared to take action without hesitation. Having such a person in the prison was tantamount to a would-be traitor there. There were some things that needed to be prepared and prevented in advance.
"Understood."
"I will return to Shanghai on the Double Ninth Festival in two days. I will go to Nanjing after meeting this guy." Cheng Qianfan said thoughtfully, "This time I go to Nanjing. I will take the young man there, and you will stay in Shanghai to take care of the family."
"I got it, Brother Fan." Li Hao nodded. He was already prepared to stay in Shanghai.
He is not only a special person, but more importantly, he knows that he is the one Brother Fan trusts the most.
…
"When I come back from Nanjing, it's time to arrange your and Zhou Ru's wedding." Cheng Qianfan said suddenly.
Hearing this, Haozi looked shy and said, "I listen to Brother Fan."
"Hahaha." Cheng Qianfan laughed, "Get married earlier and have children sooner."
He said to Li Hao, "Zhou Ru is smarter than you. I'm not in Shanghai. If you have anything to do, you should discuss it with Zhou Ru more often."
"Yes, Brother Fan."
The motorcade moved forward and finally stopped at the entrance of Chu Mansion.
Hearing the commotion, Liu Xia came out to greet them.
"Why are you here now? The Secretary-General has been waiting for you for a long time."
"I haven't seen Sister Xia for a few days, so I can't be empty-handed." Cheng Qianfan picked up the gift box in his hand, "The most modern perfume in France."
"You have a conscience." Liu Xia took the gift box and gave Cheng Qianfan a charming look.
…
In the evening.
Jin Kemu's car stopped at the door of He Mansion on Honolulu Road. He got out of the car with his briefcase and rang the doorbell.
"Uncle is back." Jing's mother came out to open the door and took Jin Kemu's briefcase.
"Where's Sister?"
"My wife is upstairs." Jing's mother hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?"
"My uncle will know his wife when he sees her," Jing's mother said, her eyes full of joy.
Jin Kemu looked surprised, went up to the second floor, and saw his sister holding a little girl.
"Sister, where did this little girl come from?" Jin Kemu asked.
"Brother, come and see, this is your grandniece." Mrs. He said happily.
"Niece?" Jin Kemu was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately realized what was happening. He stepped forward, stared at the little girl in Sister A's arms, and asked in a low voice, "This is, this is A Guan's..."
"Aguan and Xiaolan's child." Mrs. He said.
"How could Aguan's child..." Jin Kemu asked in shock.
Mrs. He then told her brother about the New Fourth Army nurse Tong Wenshu who escorted Little Shengli to Shanghai to find her relatives.
"You mean, this is the little girl who escorted the niece and granddaughter and found them all the way?" Jin Kemu asked.
"Isn't that true?" Mrs. He said, wiping her tears, "The little girl has suffered a lot along the way. I pity my little Shengli, such a little girl has also suffered so much."
…
"How are Aguan and Xiaolan doing?"
"Aguan is not with Xiaolan, Xiaolan..." Mrs. He said with a sad face, "I don't know if there is anything wrong with Xiaolan."
"It should be fine." Jin Kemu said comfortingly, "This little nurse can break out of the encirclement, and Xiaolan must be a good match."
His expression became serious, "Sister, this matter must be kept confidential. Aguan is registered with the Japanese. If the Japanese know that this is Aguan's child..."
"Of course I know this," Mrs. He said.
"Who else knows about this?"
"Only Mama Jing knows about it in the family. Mama Jing is the elder in the family, so she won't talk nonsense."
"In any case, you must be careful." Jin Kemu took the little girl from Mrs. He's hand. He looked at the little girl in his arms with affection and said thoughtfully, "There is an extra little girl and little girl in the family. This must not be hidden.
Live."
"In this way, it is said to the outside world that the little girl fled to Shanghai with her younger sister and begged at the door of her house. You are a Buddhist and took them in because you saw how pitiful the sisters were." Jin Kemu said.
"Okay." Mrs. He understood her brother's worries. She nodded and sighed, "Tell me, what kind of world is this? She is obviously my good granddaughter..."
"You must pay attention to this." Jin Kemu said sternly, "Not to mention Aguan, but myself. The Japanese have long hated me. It is always right to be careful in everything."
"I know." Mrs. He took the sleeping little girl back from her brother's hand, "Poor little Shengli, you must protect your parents."
"This child's name also needs to be changed." Jin Kemu frowned and said, "It can't be called Victory, just..."
He thought for a while and said, "My name is Xiaoli, beautiful Li."
…
"Uncle Chu, we have returned to Nanjing this time, and the new regime has been officially established." Cheng Qianfan said happily, "Uncle Chu has officially assumed the post of Vice President of the Executive Yuan. Uncle, you are full of ambitions and can make great achievements."
"The current situation is difficult and the people are suffering." Chu Mingyu sighed and said, "Everything is difficult at the beginning. To tell you the truth, my head is full of sorrow now."
"Forty million people are lucky to have Uncle Chu, Mr. Wang and other great men of the country." Cheng Qianfan also said with emotion, "After untold hardships, the new regime has finally been established. The country is very lucky, the nation is very lucky, and the people are very lucky."
"The new regime has just been established, and all industries are waiting to be prospered." Chu Mingyu looked at Cheng Qianfan with a smile, "An old man like me must work hard and work hard, but young people like you must also strive for the top and work hard for the country and the people."
"Uncle Chu's teachings, my nephew will bear them in mind." Cheng Qianfan said seriously, "Mr. Wang's peaceful salvation of the country is the most true path for China at the moment. My nephew will definitely follow Uncle Chu closely and contribute to the country and the people.
"
"Very good." Chu Mingyu nodded slightly, "Do you have any personal thoughts about your job arrangements in the new regime?"
"My nephew will obey my uncle's arrangements in everything." Cheng Qianfan said respectfully.
…
"Tell me about it." Chu Mingyu said, "You are my most admired and respected nephew. There is nothing I can't say about you in front of me."
"Yes, uncle." Cheng Qianfan said, "My nephew is naturally willing to contribute to the new regime. However, uncle, you also know that my nephew's identity and work in Shanghai, in the French Concession..."
"Well." Chu Mingyu nodded, "Your concerns are reasonable."
He took the teacup handed over by Cheng Qianfan and said slowly, "Your status and work in the French Concession will be very beneficial to the new regime's work in Shanghai and East China."
"I have also thought about it carefully." Chu Mingyu said, "Here in Shanghai, you still have to take care of everything and don't lose the fundamentals."
"yes!"
"However, Nanjing cannot completely let go." Chu Mingyu said seriously, "You know the situation of the new regime. Although some people agree to the merger, it is inevitable that they have other ideas."
Chu Mingyu said earnestly, "The new regime's powers and positions are limited to those. If we don't occupy them, some people will try their best to seize them."
"My nephew follows my uncle's arrangements." Cheng Qianfan said quickly.
"In this way." Chu Mingyu said, "In the army, Mr. Wang must be focused on. If you hold the rank of major general and counselor in the army, you can speak out if something happens."
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan showed a grateful expression, "My uncle has cultivated my nephew, and my nephew will deeply appreciate it."
"In addition." Chu Mingyu said thoughtfully, "Jiangsu Provincial Government has just been established. I will help you find a suitable position within the provincial government."
