Jiujiang City.
On the Yangtze River, sailing boats compete for the current, and the horns scream.
The docks, embarking, disembarking, carrying cargo, carrying burdens, and pushing wheelbarrows are crowded and bustling.
At the end of Chaoyang Road, a small western-style building. In the hall, Shi Yu held his son to breastfeed. Seeing that the maid Chenxiang had already set up early on the dining table, she turned her head and shouted to the bedroom: "Zongde, didn't you mean to go to Nanjing today, why can't you still get up?" She looked back at the clock hung on the wall. Then he urged: "It's half past eight, get up!"
"Get up early, isn't this wearing clothes?" Zongde buttoned the buttons on his uniform as he walked out of the room.
"When did you go home last night?" Shiyu asked, frowning when he saw Zongde getting in bed with him and yawned constantly.
"It's not too late, just over nine o'clock." Zongde lied. Seeing Chenxiang call for washing water, he picked up the mouthwash cup, rinsed his mouth, and replied.
"It's more than nine o'clock?" Shi Yu gently put the sleeping child into the cradle, and said with a sneer: "It's more than nine o'clock? I'm still taking a bath with the baby after nine o'clock." Then she turned to ask Chenxiang: "Agarwood, don't you think?"
"Yes. My baby and I took off my clothes at nine o'clock." Chen Xiang confirmed.
"Did you go to the kiln again?" Shi Yu asked.
"How can it be-I went to Lao Jiang's house to play cards." Zongde said with a prevarication after washing his face, throwing the towel into the basin.
"Just make up." Shiyu said annoyedly: "Lao Jiang's family plays cards? Who are you lying to? Lao Jiang came here to call you after nine o'clock."
"Quickly stop talking, annoying, let's eat!" Zongde said impatiently while eating fried dough sticks and eggs, while drinking porridge, "Men have a lot of entertainment, do I want to tell you every single thing?"
"If you go, I don't care anymore; but if you made me sick, I can't stop with you! I knew you were like this. I should have listened to my father and cut it off with you. Now I don't want to kill me. It's good to go back to my hometown." Shiyu said frustratedly.
"Why nag endlessly. Don't repeat the past, okay?" Zongde put down the bowl, patted Shigure's shoulder lightly, and changed the subject and said: "The fighting is very tight now. The Northern Expeditionary Army has captured Wuhan and Nanjing. The National Government has moved to Nanjing, and Hu Hanmin is already the Chairman of the National Government."
"A few years ago, didn't you say you sold your life for Hu Hanmin? What's your life?" Shiyu asked.
"Don't talk nonsense, what life did I sell to Hu Hanmin? Nonsense!" Zongde said with a guilty conscience: "Hu Hanmin is an ungrateful villain. How can I help him? In the end, he hasn't forgotten me. net?"
"You are a major in mechanical and electrical engineering. It would be great to do a technical job and earn money with technology. If you want to rush into the military to do a job like this, you are fighting for me, and you are worried all day long. Why bother! Since you have already learned the lesson! If the surname is Hu, what are you going to do with him?" Shi Yu persuaded.
"How can you not find it? Is Jiujiang a long-term foothold? Now it is the world of the Nationalist Government, "Cunning Rabbit Three Caves", let's find a hole first."
"You can't listen to what I'm saying, and I can't take care of your business. At that time, I will return to my hometown in Fengcheng, so I don't have to be wandering and frightened outside with you." Shiyu murmured.
After eating early, Chen Xiang packed the luggage for Zongde, brought the suitcase to Zongde's side and said, "I put a robe, a suit, two pairs of socks, a pair of leather shoes, some underwear, what else?"
"Forget it, don't you need to go to Nanjing to buy something? He has a lot of money, and he has no money?" Shi Yu ridiculed. Turning around, he said to Chenxiang, "Isn't there still some jade belt crisps from Fengcheng Tianxiangzhai? He likes to eat them. Use a lunch box to bring him some."
"That's it." Zong De said with a smile.
"Be careful all the way-you are not sending ordinary goods, but arms!" Shigure sent Zongde out and said with concern.
"Don't worry, it's okay." Zongde picked up the suitcase in his left hand, and walked out the door with the lunch box in his right hand.
When Shi Yu entered the hall, the baby woke up and cried. Chen Xiang quickly walked to the cradle, coaxing and shaking.
"I'm here, I must be hungry." Shiyu held up the baby, unbuttoned the button, and looked at Chenxiang and said, "Look, how come my two milks are so much milk that they are always full of pain."
"It's not that you have eaten too much hair during confinement-chicken and pig's feet." Chenxiang said with a smile.
"Now it's okay, he's gone, and a few days have passed quietly." Shiyu said comfortably while breastfeeding.
"I only hear you arguing every day." Chen Xiang said.
"I'm arguing with him? Look at his virtue!" Shigure said annoyedly.
"Probably men are like this-fighting for the strong, fascinated."
"I really regret that I was blind like that." Shiyu said regretfully.
"Forget it, deal with it." Chen Xiang persuaded.
"I really want to go home." Shi Yu put the sleeping baby back into the cradle.
"Master will agree?" Chen Xiang said suspiciously.
"It doesn't matter if he agrees or not, it's him!" Shiyu replied annoyed.
"Oh, Chenxiang," Suddenly, Shi Yu seemed to think of something, and said sadly: "While this is leisurely, shall we go to Sister Jiang's house for fun?"
"Sister Jiang?" Chen Xiang recalled, "Is that the family who fled to Jiujiang from the young master's hometown?"
"Yes." Shigure replied.
"Didn't she live in Lijialong? There are more than ten miles of land." Chen Xiang said.
"It doesn't matter if we go there for more than ten miles. We can go there by car now." Shi Yu replied with interest.
"I heard that they are raising silkworms there now. Didn't you ask me to send them money once as a capital?" Chen Xiang said fresh in his memory.
"Okay, we will take the baby tomorrow." Shiyu said happily.
