Chapter six hundred and sixth wedding day(1/2)
March 18, 1938.
Twenty-seven years of the Republic of China.
February 17, Wuyin year.
It is appropriate to destroy houses and ruin walls.
Bogey, the market is open...and...
Also, get married!
Avoid getting married!
What kind of bad day did you choose?
The dignified Meng Shaoyuan got married on a day when marriage was taboo!
We can’t blame Wu Jingyi who arranged the marriage.
She didn't understand these things at first, and she had to get married before Meng Shaoyuan's men left Shanghai, so she made preparations in a hurry.
We have neglected the Chinese tradition of looking at the almanac for important events.
Cai Xuefei came back from abroad again and didn't care about these things at all.
So Meng Shaoyuan was going to get married on a lucky date...
…
"No, Director Meng, it's not a good time to get married today." Sitting in the car, Xu Zhu couldn't help but say.
"Yeah?"
Meng Shaoyuan also knew nothing about the almanac.
"It's true." Xu Zhu vowed: "I looked at the almanac when I went out. It's not a good day to move, open a market, or get married."
"So I always suspect that Wu Jingyi wants to persecute me." Meng Shaoyuan became more and more sure: "It's not appropriate, is it? I don't believe it anymore. I said yesterday that I wanted to see blood, and when I see blood, everything is appropriate!"
Now, it's 7 o'clock in the morning.
Pingliang Road, Shanghai Public Settlement.
…
Cai Xuefei got up early in the morning.
In fact, she didn't sleep much all night last night.
When I got married for the first time, I didn’t even see what my husband looked like.
But this time it's different.
This time it was her choice.
Today is the happiest and most important day in her life!
The garden of Qiangwei Mansion has been decorated.
It is impossible to get married in a glamorous way, everything can only be kept simple.
However, Cai Xuefei still insisted on doing things according to Chinese customs as much as possible.
Although Butler Qiu was very dissatisfied with the marriage, he sent an emergency telegram to Nanyang, but there was no news at all.
This is an important matter for Madam, so Butler Qiu can only do his best to handle it.
Looking at the proud look on that Arau's face, Butler Qiu felt as if he had eaten a fly.
Hey, when he thinks that his wife will be called "Mrs. Meng" from now on, Butler Qiu wants to die...
…
"Secretary Shi, the hospitality has not been good these days. The hospitality has not been thorough."
"My father-in-law, it's very good, very good." Shi Qingzhi said with a smile: "I came to Shanghai more than ten years ago, and this time, it has changed a lot. I am far away from the north and the south, and China's peace is just around the corner. This reform government is very interested in my father-in-law.
I have high expectations and hope that my father-in-law will take up his post as soon as possible so that you and I can work together in the future."
Chen Lu smiled slightly: "As for the appointment as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, let me think about it again. To celebrate the establishment of the reform government, I am going to let Quanzi go, which can be regarded as a statement of mine."
Shi Qingzhi knew that this guy was a cunning old man.
He had clearly agreed to serve as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Reform Government, and his son Chen Youtao was also appointed Director of the General Affairs Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Reform Government, but he refused to admit it in front of himself.
This old cunning man had outstanding qualifications in the past, and his rebellion and surrender to the enemy was considered by the Japanese to be a major victory.
However, he was worried about retaliation from the military commander and would never admit it to the outside world easily before he officially took office.
Chen Lu was afraid of continuing to ask questions: "Secretary Shi, let's have breakfast together. After breakfast, the car will take you to the train station. I am old and my legs are inconvenient, so I won't take you there myself."
"My lord, you're welcome, you're welcome. It's enough to have so many bodyguards accompanying me."
…
"what time is it?"
"7:20."
"Shi Qingzhi is coming out soon." Meng Shaoyuan lit a cigarette: "Order all brothers to officially enter the designated ambush position at 7:30."
"yes."
"Once the target is discovered, no one in the two cars will be left alive!"
"clear."
Meng Shaoyuan took a deep breath of cigarette and blew out several smoke rings in the car...
…
AM, 7:30.
The Qiangwei Mansion is all decorated.
Arau arrived a few minutes ago.
"Hey, where's Meng Shaoyuan?" Butler Qiu's words always carry a bit of arrogance: "You are about to marry our wife. You must be extremely nervous now, right?"
"I'm sorry to disappoint you." Alao said lukewarmly, "Our master went out early in the morning."
"What? He went out early in the morning?" Butler Qiu's eyes widened: "Today is his wedding, what is he doing out so early in the morning?"
"I'm a housekeeper. Don't ask me questions that I shouldn't ask. I know my identity."
"You... you can't make sense of this, you bastard!"
…
7:30.
Zhu Yanni knocked on Wu Jingyi’s door on time.
"You're so beautifully dressed? Come on, come in and have breakfast."
They agreed to go to the wedding together.
In the Military Reunification Shanghai Special Office, Wu Jingyi and Zhu Yanni have the best relationship.
Moreover, she also felt special sympathy for Zhu Yanni.
"Oh, look at you, wearing such a beautiful cheongsam." Wu Jingyi clicked her tongue and said, "You even put on makeup, right? This gives him face."
"After all, this is his first marriage." Zhu Yanni felt a little embarrassed: "I want to dress up, but I can't lose his face."
Wu Jingyi sighed: "This Meng Shaoyuan doesn't know what good things he did in his previous life. To be able to meet a girl like you..."
…
7:30.
Meng Shaoyuan threw away the cigarette butt: "It's time to go out, everyone enter the designated ambush position!"
"Director Meng, gun."
Meng Shaoyuan took over the submachine gun.
Can you believe that you are getting married today?
Wedding, murder day!
…
7:30, Nanjing.
Tian Qi ate an egg.
Yesterday, I received a transfer order to return to Shanghai to assist in the work.
The situation in Nanjing has just begun.
Pity.
But it's okay, there may be a chance to see Meng Shaoyuan again.
I don't know how he is doing now.
And his marriage.
Tian Qi does not plan to get married, but Boss Meng will definitely get married.
You can't wait until the victory of the Anti-Japanese War before getting married, right?
When I return to Shanghai, I will have the opportunity to see him and give him some good advice.
Strange, why have I become a mother-in-law now?
Is it because the incubation time is too long?
…
8 o'clock.
