Old Movies of the Republic of China(4)

It is relatively safe to leave the wounded here. First, because this is a concession, no one will search here. Second, the couple still seems trustworthy.

Qiu Cheng pointed downstairs and asked the two of them to speak below so as not to disturb the wounded.

After walking downstairs, Lin Yutong pointed to the kitchen and said, "Let's talk in the kitchen. I guess it's already o'clock and you haven't eaten yet."

The fourth master took the lead and walked towards the kitchen, "Whether we have eaten or not, it has been several hours since dinner. It is just a midnight snack."

He put the leftover dumplings from dinner into a pot and fried two large plates, then made an egg soup and brought it over. In order to avoid the embarrassment of the guests, Lin Yutong took three sets of bowls and chopsticks over.

Qiu Cheng was not a hypocritical person. He only tasted two and said with a smile: "I haven't eaten such delicious dumplings for a long time."

Lin Yutong was washing rice while planning to cook some porridge for the wounded in a casserole, "Eat more if you like. You're welcome."

Qiu Cheng smiled and suddenly asked, "Are the Xian and his wife both international students?"

Lin Yutong is not.

Fourth Master shook his head: "I am, but my wife is not." It is easy to find out this matter. Checking the list of people entering and leaving the country is not complicated. You don't need to explain to others, but you still need to be honest with this person.

It's good. Besides, it's not bad for them to be born in poverty with nothing. In such a world, there are many orphans wandering around.

Qiu Cheng was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Lin Yutong: "Oh?" This was somewhat inconsistent with his investigation.

Lin Yutong smiled: "There is nothing shameful about this. The main reason is that some people in this world look at people with colored glasses. So we don't explain much. You asked specifically, and I won't hide it from you. I am an orphan, and my parents

I don’t even know where my relatives are from. I was adopted by a doctor who traveled around the streets. It was the master who raised me."

"Then you two..." Qiu Cheng looked at Fourth Master, as if to say, how could you come together with such huge differences?

Fourth Master joked about how the two of them were kidnapped by bandits by accident, "...Besides, although my wife does not come from a wealthy family, nor does she go to school seriously, she is not uneducated, nor is she uneducated.

. On the contrary, Wu Hu No. 4 is floating like this, and she has learned a little bit of everything. Not to mention medical skills, she also learned English and arithmetic very well from the priest."

"Having a common language can be considered a common hardship, I understand." Qiu Cheng looked at Lin Yutong and smiled and said: "Although Xiaolin had a hard time since he was a child, he is now happily married, which can be regarded as a blessing after all the hardships." After that, he asked about Fourth Master's family.

thing.

The Fourth Master smiled and said: "I am now considered a proletarian. I don't have much at home, and everything belongs to my brother. After I came out...it was only a few days..." After that, he paused and said, "Mr. Qiu,

It’s not appropriate for you to show your face outside like this.”

He has been targeted, and this is not good for his safety.

Qiu Cheng nodded, "Yes, there are many occasions where it is not suitable for me to come forward. I have nothing to worry about with Xiao Shao here. But if I come here all the time, I will be irresponsible for your safety. I have a suggestion

, I didn’t know you two…”

Fourth Master waved his hand: "But it doesn't matter."

"That's what I think. I see that you and your wife are the only two people in your house." Qiu Cheng pointed to the house, "If you find it convenient, I will send two people to take care of Xiao Shao... Of course, the two of them will

If you find it inconvenient, forget it. The main thing I think is that I can’t come often and there is a middleman to communicate back and forth..."

Lin Yutong didn't wait for him to finish and said with a smile: "That's just a helper. It's not inconvenient."

Only by contacting each other can we trust each other more.

Qiu Cheng didn't stay long. After dinner, it was already past three in the morning. It would be dawn if he didn't leave. The fourth master sent him out, and the two went to the attic to see Shao Guanshan's condition. The surgery had just passed, and Lin Yutong did not dare to be careless.

She told Fourth Master to rest, "I'll keep watch for now. You might have to go out tomorrow, so you go to bed first. When someone comes tomorrow, it's the same as having someone here to take care of you. It's the same as catching up on sleep during the day."

Early the next morning, two people actually came to the door. One was a woman in her thirties, wearing a blue gown, standing outside the door with a bundle in one hand and a basket in the other. Following her was a ten-year-old woman.

A young man of seven or eight years old, with dark skin and white teeth when he smiles.

"It's Sister Gui and Hanzai. Come in quickly." Lin Yutong smiled and let the door open.

"Hello, madam." The two of them called Lin Yutong.

"No." Lin Yutong waved his hand, "Call me Madam when there is someone around, and Xiao Linxing when there is no one around. We are a family behind closed doors, so clearly separated. We haven't eaten yet, let's eat together."

After chatting with each other for a long time, they all sat down at the dining table. In the morning, they had egg pancakes, pickles, and millet porridge. It was extremely simple to live in such a house and eat such meals.

Sister-in-law Gui took a bite of the food and felt a little embarrassed, "My cooking skills are not as good as my wife's."

"Everything is fine." Lin Yutong said nonchalantly: "We won't choose. Besides, whoever is free will do it. Besides, Sister Gui still has to take care of the wounded."

The fourth master over there has already spoken to the fool: "... From now on, you will do all the shopping at home. You come and go frequently, and gradually everyone gets used to it. Occasionally, you go out to spread a message, or...

No one will care too much if you come back late."

Han Zai responded. It is not easy to have such a cover to operate in the concession. How to arrange it.

The fourth master went out after dinner. Today he has to go to the textile factory. Five hundred oceans a month is not that easy to make.

After dinner, Sister Gui cleaned up the kitchen. Lin Yutong went up to see the situation in Shaoguan Mountain. She also changed the medicine for the wound. When Sister Gui came up, she explained all the precautions and went back to her room to catch up on her sleep.

But unexpectedly, in the middle of the afternoon, the phone rang again.

Lin Yutong sat up for a moment, grabbed the phone, and said 'hello', and heard the voice on the other side: "Is it Mrs. Yin? Your custom-made cheongsam is ready. If you are in a hurry, you can come and pick it up now.

"

I didn’t order a cheongsam at all! Although the voice was unfamiliar, he could only know the home phone number. It was not Chen Xiangdong and his wife, but Qiu Cheng. Chen Xiangdong and his wife would not say these words inexplicably, so this could only be from Qiu Cheng.

People with close relationships. Under what circumstances would Qiu Cheng tell others about his side of the news? It could only be that something might have happened to him.

This thought flashed through my mind, and it only took me a moment to figure it out. The other party reminded me, ‘If you need it urgently, come and get it now.’ This actually told me to go there quickly.

Saving people is like putting out fire!

Lin Yutong didn't hesitate at all, "I'm afraid it's not enough to ask someone to pick it up. How can I know whether the clothes fit or not if I don't try them on? I've tried them on myself. If they don't fit, I'd better change them immediately. I'll go over there."

The other party seemed to be relieved: "I asked the guy to wait for Madam at the door. We all know your guys."

This is a reminder to ask Hanzai to lead the way.

"I got it." After Lin Yutong said that, he hung up the phone. He got up and simply changed into neat trousers, picked up his clothes and walked out. He met Mrs. Gui coming down from the attic.

"Madam is awake." Sister-in-law Gui said anxiously, "I was about to call you. Xiao Shao is awake."

Lin Yutong was stunned for a moment, then went in and took a look at Shao Guanshan, who had just woken up and was still a little confused. He felt his pulse and turned back to Sister Gui: "The medicine is in the kitchen. You can boil it for a while. Feed it, as much as you can."

.I just received a call and something happened to Mr. Qiu. I want to go out with Hanzai. You stay at home and watch."

Sister-in-law Gui's expression changed and she cursed: "This traitor."

Lin Yutong's mind suddenly exploded, as if he had read history before and there was such a thing. Gu Shunzhang rebelled! As a result, a large number of underground party members died. Could it be that now...

She didn't dare to delay any longer and ran down quickly. No wonder Qiu Cheng was so reckless in bringing someone home, without even having to screen herself and Fourth Master. It turned out that she was thinking of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

.

I hailed a rickshaw directly from the roadside and gave the other party a deposit, as long as I didn't use the car. The idiot pulled Lin Yutong and ran. Walking through the streets and alleys, Lin Yutong had already been knocked unconscious. Only then did he arrive.

It is located in front of the teahouse next to the tailor shop.

There was a man in his thirties standing at the door of the teahouse, his face full of anxiety. The boy was sweating profusely, breathing heavily, and called him "Uncle Song."

The man nodded and immediately looked at Lin Yutong: "Mrs. Yin, I've been waiting for you."

Lin Yutong waved his hand: "Quick! Where is he?"

"Follow me." The man glanced at the fool and motioned for him to point outside. Then he led Lin Yutong into the teahouse, and then followed him down the stairs into the basement.

There was only an oil lamp inside, and it was dark and damp. Qiu Cheng was lying on the bed covered in blood.

Lin Yutong went over to check, "Three gunshot wounds, it's a miracle that he can survive until now." Lin Yutong asked the person to take a breath before giving the injection, and then said: "It can't work here. It must be moved."

The man shook his head: "Our organization was destroyed and many comrades were arrested. Lao Qiu wanted to cover me, so... Now, there is no place to move to where I dare to take it, so I took the liberty to give it to you

Made a phone call."

Lin Yutong was so anxious that sweat broke out on his head: "Send it to my home. Only my home is safe for the time being." But how can we send this person who is covered in blood and seriously injured? Everything needs to be checked.

After making two rounds in the basement, she said: "We have moved to a new home, and I haven't bought any furniture yet. Can we hide the person in a furniture box and transport him there first? With his injury, it's better to do it sooner rather than later."

"

The man immediately said: "There are several antique sellers nearby..."

Yes! Choose old furniture.

"Let's do it!" Lin Yutong glanced at the person on the bed, "Wrap the person in a quilt and tie him up with a rope. Don't let the smell of blood escape. I'm going to buy furniture."

After coming out of the teahouse, Lin Yutong nodded to Hanzai, and then walked leisurely towards the antique shop not far away. There were ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, and furniture, including armchairs and tables, which were quite complete, but they could be placed in a place for people.

Not much.

"Sister | Tell me if there is anything that catches your eye." The waiter said enthusiastically, "The ones we have here are definitely genuine."

Lin Yutong glanced around. Except for two or three items that were dated decades ago, they were considered to be from the previous dynasty. The others were old. She looked at the store two or three times and finally landed on this one.

On the counter where I ordered. This counter is really not an ordinary counter, but a cabinet for storing food. It is one meter sixty-seven meters long, one meter one-two meters wide, and one meter high. Although a person cannot lie down when he goes in, he can still lean on it.

It works.

She tapped her finger on the counter: "How to sell this?"

The boy almost instinctively said that the thing was not for sale. The thing was completely stingy by his own boss, who spent a lot of money to get it, and the wood was even eaten by insects.

The boss who had been dozing over there was wearing a mandarin gown, a black leather hat, and glasses hanging around his neck. He coughed hurriedly, "Young lady, you really have good eyesight. This is a good thing from the previous dynasty. It's not expensive, 2
