As the saying goes, a married daughter is like water thrown out.
Now that the brothers are gone and the niece is married, I don’t know whether they can still do it or not. This big family has brought their relatives here to join them.
People still don’t know what their attitude is.
Everything is unknown, but there is no turning back. Now that we are here, let's wait until we see someone first.
Cai Qingjiang was not very willing to get married, but the two elderly people had already made a marriage contract, and it had been so many years.
His wife Bai Moer also gave birth to his fifth brother's children. The eldest daughter is already married. The remaining four children are the eldest son Cai Xiren, who is sixteen years old and is studying medicine with him. The second daughter and the third daughter are still young, one is ten years old. Four years old, one is only eight years old, and the younger son is still sucking milk in his infancy.
I took a bus from Tongliao to Bingcheng, and had to change trains in Xinjing on the way. After a lot of trouble, I loaded up my luggage again. There were a family of seven, plus the eldest son-in-law who came with me, a total of eight people. It was hard to squeeze in. Got the train.
They took the slowest train and had to stop at all the big and small stops along the way, with people constantly getting on and off.
Finally, after more than ten hours of tossing, the train slowly pulled into Bingcheng Railway Station.
The majestic train station, row upon row of buildings, and the endless flow of people. Except for Cai Qingjiang and Bai Moer, several juniors were here for the first time, and they were all stunned by the sight before them.
Cai Qingjiang came here twenty years ago, but the Ice City back then was not comparable to what it is now. The population and the size of the city were several times higher.
Although Bai Moer used to live in Bingcheng, she has never been back since she got married, and everything has become strange.
Moreover, the Bai family and the escort agency back then have long since disappeared.
When she got married, the escort agency was still there, but within a few years, she heard the news that the Bai family escort agency was gone. At that time, she was just pregnant with her first son, and it was impossible to go home. After giving birth, she still had to take care of the child. , naturally there is no chance.
In addition, my husband and in-laws take care of me at home.
Twenty years have passed and she has never come back. Thinking of this, Bai Moer's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
My father passed away early, and my mother was not around when she passed away. Even my eldest brother and sister-in-law died one after another, and she was not present.
Bai Moer suddenly felt that her daughter and sister were too incompetent.
With such a family, there are so many people, and there is a lot of luggage. It is definitely not possible to go there on foot. You have to find a car, or even two cars.
But they don't have much money left. If something unexpected happens next, their whole family will have to live on the street.
The temperature is a little better now, but if winter comes, this family will freeze to death even if they don't starve to death.
The family bargained, and finally rented a delivery carriage, which drove a large family to Fujia's store without any obstruction or obstruction.
…
Zhou Sen finally took a day off and was at home. He didn't want to go anywhere, so he stayed with his wife and the unborn child in his belly.
By the way, think about your next plan.
Once Arman lets Natasha take the initiative, Yamamoto Toshi will definitely let him take the opportunity to capture Natasha. There is no doubt about this.
He seemed unable to refuse either side.
The Japanese intelligence agency underwent a major overhaul. Zhou Sen lost a top-secret source like Suzuki Takeo, and he did not have any foundation within the intelligence agency. It can be said that he now has no backing except Shibuya Saburo's legs.
On the surface, he seems to be in a good situation, but in fact, his situation is even worse. Suzuki Takeo is here and there is someone who can protect him.
But now that the man who had the bottom line has left, he cannot use his connections in the "Come to Europe" group at will.
These are the people who are deeply lurking and can play a decisive role in the end. They must not be exposed until the critical moment.
In fact, this season is the most suitable for outings, but Bai Yulan is pregnant and has a big belly. If something goes wrong, the gain will not be worth the loss.
Therefore, it is better to stay at home, take a walk, and bask in the sun than to go out and take risks.
Moreover, once Chang Bo leaves, Bai Yulan will have to worry more about the business of Ningxiang Pavilion, which is also unavoidable.
Nowadays, Bai Yulan, apart from occasionally going to new stages to listen to plays, basically never leaves the front door or steps forward.
"Axiang, the weather is nice today. Go to my house and take out the children's clothes I made to dry them!"
"Hey, okay, Sister Lan."
"I'll go take a look in front. If you need anything, come find me in front." Bai Yulan waved her hand and walked towards the teahouse in front with a big belly.
Aunt Chun quickly stepped forward to help.
"Boss Bai, a family came to the door, claiming to be your relatives and coming to join you." Just after sitting down for a while, Uncle Quan, the manager in charge of the teahouse operation, came in to report.
"My relatives?" Bai Yulan was stunned subconsciously. The only relatives in her family were her aunt and her uncle's family who moved to Guannai.
There is no news from my uncle's family, and I don't know my current situation. Could it be that my aunt's family came from Tongliao?
Now something bad happened, so she told Zhou Sen that Chang Bo had gone to Tongliao to pick up his aunt and his family. It was good now that his aunt and his family had already arrived. Wasn't this just a coincidence?
But it's okay, one has already come over, and the other has not met in the past. This is a common thing.
But when this aunt and her family are coming, they have to send a telegram in advance, so that I can prepare in advance.
No matter what, let’s confirm the person first before talking.
How could any relative not be allowed in when they came to the house? However, the teahouse door was for business and welcoming guests. Bai Yulan gave an order and asked Uncle Quan to take everyone to the back door and then bring them in.
Bai Yulan hurried back to the backyard.
Everyone was wondering. Bai Yulan went to the front yard and said she wouldn't be back for a while. Why did she come back in such a hurry? What was she doing?
"Yu Lan, what's going on? Didn't you say you went to the front yard to keep an eye on the tea house's business? Why are you back again?" Zhou Sen also came out of the house and asked strangely.
"A relative is here. I'll explain to you later." Bai Yulan turned around and walked towards the gate of the backyard.
Uncle Quan had already walked in with a large family, and the luggage was unloaded from the carriage one by one and put into the yard.
"Aunt..." Bai Yulan recognized Bai Mo'er the first time she saw her. This was her aunt she hadn't seen for twenty years.
"Xiao Lan..." Although Bai Yulan was still a little girl when Bai Mo'er got married, now that she has grown up, she is a close relative after all. At that moment, she recognized that the woman with a big belly in front of her was her brother's daughter. .
Bai Mo'er handed the baby in her arms to the eldest daughter behind her. She took the first step, stepped forward and grabbed Bai Yulan's arms.
When the aunt and nephew, who had been separated for many years, met, uncontrollable tears burst out of their eyes.
"Auntie, how have you been these past few years?"
"Okay, okay..." Bai Mo'er agreed repeatedly and reached out to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes. You can imagine that she was excited.
Zhou Sen also came after hearing the news. Although he didn't understand the situation, he could understand something from the conversation between Bai Yulan and Bai Mo'er.
Bai Yulan's aunt's family came from Tongliao.
Bai Yulan was born so beautiful, not only because of her mother's excellent genes, but also because of her father's genes.
From Bai Moer's slightly older face, we can see that she was quite beautiful when she was young.
After the aunt and nephew finally calmed down, the formal introduction began.
Cai Qingjiang and Bai Yulan still have some impressions, but now that they have passed the age of forty, the handsome young man at the beginning has become the thin and slightly old appearance now.
Cousin, cousin, that was the first time we met.
Bai Yulan also introduced Zhou Sen to Bai Moer's family. Other than that, Zhou Sen only said hello politely.
Bai Yulan asked Axiang to cook and prepare to entertain her aunt and her family at home.
They had been separated for twenty years. Although Bai Yulan was just a little girl when they separated, she was a close relative. When they meet again, there will naturally be endless things to say.
Zhou Sen is not very familiar with this family, but as the man of the house, he naturally cannot leave his relatives alone. He has to accompany them to talk with them.
Cai Qingjiang was Zhou Sen's opponent. In a few sentences, he got a rough idea of the situation of the family who came to Bingcheng with their family.
This is true to the old saying. If you are not desperate, you will not leave your hometown and go to a strange place to live under the shelter of others.
Although they are poor, Cai Qingjiang's family is still well-educated. During the meal, his father did not touch his son, nor did any of his children.
Although this kind of table manners is a bit old-fashioned, some families that pride themselves on being superior to others stick to this stereotype. Of course, it cannot be said to be decadent and backward. It reflects a kind of respect for the elders.
But for a person like Zhou Sen who is used to being free and loose, he is still a little unaccustomed to it. You can't watch others doing tachyon every time you eat, and then do it yourself, right?
It's understandable that we have to wait for everyone to arrive before we start eating, but we have to wait for the elders to start eating first so that the younger ones can eat. That's fine.
People are equal, and elders cannot impose their will on their younger generations, or even let younger generations obey their own will to do things.
Doesn't this mean we are back to the feudal system where the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die, and the father wants his son to die, and the son has to die?
The family did not eat well or sleep well along the way, so Axiang cooked a sumptuous lunch. Many of the dishes were things they had never seen before, let alone eaten.
Cai Qingjiang, his wife and several children all ate a lot. After a table full of dishes, not even a drop of soup was left in the bowl.
Seeing the CDs on the table, Cai Qingjiang and his wife blushed slightly. Today, the family was embarrassed in front of their niece and son-in-law.
Arranged for people to stay.
Bai Yulan was also tired, so she went upstairs to rest.
This big family also needs to settle down first, and they can live in Ningxiang Pavilion for the time being, but after a long time, it may not be a good thing.
But it's not easy for Zhou Sen to mention it. It depends on Bai Yulan's thoughts.
…
Qin Shengtao was released and saw the long-lost sunshine. He didn't know how he was released, but he instinctively felt that there was something fishy.
Zhao Changqing and Liu Shuangbai were also released together.
After several months in prison, the three of them have undergone tremendous changes. Qin Shengtao has become thinner, and his bird's nest is deeply sunken. It is obvious that he was tortured inside.
Zhao Changqing's face was as pale as a dead person sent to a funeral parlor. It was difficult to take even two steps and he was coughing badly.
As for Liu Shuangbai, he was wilted and had an expression that would frighten everyone he saw.
Tian Fu was released earlier. He knew the news of the three people's release and came here to pick them up today.
As for Chen Lijuan and Liang Yanxia, their families had long thought of ways to redeem them at a large price.
Of course, what happened to the two girls in the "correction home" cannot be explained to outsiders. This is a nightmare that they never want to remember again in their lives.
"Changqing, Shuangbai, go take a bath first to get rid of bad luck." Qin Shengtao greeted Zhao Changqing and Liu Shuangbai.
"I'm not going, you go ahead." Liu Shuangbai refused directly, "I want to go home."
Qin Shengtao knew that after Liu Shuangbai experienced this incident, he was afraid that he would no longer want to associate with him. It was no problem. Everyone has his own ambitions and there is no need to force him.
Only through experience can you see a person's true face clearly.
"Evergreen, what about you?"
Zhao Changqing glanced at Qin Shengtao with complicated eyes and nodded slowly. Liu Shuangbai, his cousin, he did not plan to have any contact with.
"Tian Fu, have you brought any money?"
"Bring it."
"Let's go have a good meal first, and then take a hot bath." Qin Shengtao greeted, and the three of them stepped forward.
"Brother Sen, why were these three people released?" Ye San'er and Zhou Sen were watching the three people leave from the entrance of the correctional home from a corner opposite.
"It's not a big deal, why did you shoot someone?" Zhou Sen said with a cigarette hanging in his mouth, taking out a lighter and lighting it.
"As long as they are Communists, wouldn't they rather kill the wrong person than let them go?" Ye San'er asked doubtfully.
"Human life is not a leek. After cutting one stalk, another stalk will grow. Furthermore, we have handed over these leeks. How do I know what the Japanese think?" Zhou Sen said.
"Then shall we keep an eye on it?"
"Look, I caught these three people. If they come out, they might cause trouble. Keep an eye on them for a while." Zhou Sen ordered.
"OK."
…
"Zhou Sen-kun, do you think if Qin Shengtao knew that Qiao Sanlang was released two months before him, would he go looking for him?" Kageyama Jiro asked Zhou Sen for a tea ceremony.
"I wonder, did Lord Yingshan give Qin Shengtao a hint inside?" Zhou Sen shook his head and asked.
"It's very easy to talk to smart people." Kageyama Jiro chuckled, "Actually, I didn't say anything. I just told Qin Shengtao that Qiao Sanlang was released on bail."
"Could it be me that you're talking about?" Zhou Sen was slightly startled.
"I didn't say it was you, but I think he will investigate after he gets out, if he is really a communist." Kageyama Jiro said.
"Didn't Mr. Yingshan use him to find more Communists? Why did he get involved with me?" Zhou Sen asked in confusion.
"I first need to confirm his identity. Although you and I both believe that he is the Communist Party, he does not admit it. This trick of playing hard to get was taught to me by Mr. Zhou Sen." Jiro Kageyama chuckled.
"If this Qin Shengtao is really an important figure in the Communist Party, wouldn't he be let go?" Zhou Sen asked.
"No." Kageyama Jiro smiled mysteriously.
Zhou Sen's heart skipped a beat. This smile reminded him of a bad situation. Kageyama Jiro released Qin Shengtao, hoping that he would be able to keep him under his control.
What method will he use?
