Chapter 1607 Major General Councilor
"Girl, who are you looking for?" Mother Jing asked the girl at the door.
This was a girl about fourteen or fifteen years old. She was wearing tattered clothes full of patches, and her face had frostbite scars and a pale complexion.
The girl was carrying a sleeping baby on her back.
"Aunt, is this the He family on Honolulu Road?" the girl asked.
"It's the He family." Mother Jing nodded, "Girl, who are you?"
"Who is Mr. Jin Kemujin from the police station? Is he related to this family?" the girl asked again.
"Mr. Jin is my wife's younger brother." Mother Jing frowned, "Miss, what do you want?"
"That's great." The girl's face showed joy. "Is Mrs. He home?"
"Girl, what do you want to talk to my wife about?" asked Jing's mother.
……
"Mother Jing, who is it?" Mrs. He asked inside.
"Madam, a little girl said she wanted to see you, Madam."
"A little girl?" Mrs. He asked in confusion as she walked to the door.
"Are you Mrs. He?" The girl looked at Mrs. He and asked, "Sister of Chief Jin of the Patrol Office?"
"I am." Mrs. He frowned. She thought the girl was a little strange.
"What's your son's name?" the girl asked again.
Ah Guan?!
Mrs. He's face 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 basket the girl was carrying.
Mrs. He's breathing was rapid, her body was swaying, she held the door, forced herself to remain calm, and said, "Come in and talk."
"Mother Jing, close the door."
"Eh."
……
"Miss, do you know my A-Guan?" asked Mrs. He.
"Madam." The girl took off the backpack and carefully took the baby out of it. "This is your granddaughter."
"what?"
"This is Captain He and Nurse Huang's daughter, your granddaughter," said the girl.
Mrs. He suddenly stepped forward and took the sleeping girl from the girl's hands.
The little girl was sleeping soundly, her face was pale and her body was thin, it was pitiful to see her.
Like, so similar.
Xiao Nannan's face looks very much like A Guan when he was a child, and her eyebrows are very similar to his daughter-in-law Huang Xiaolan.
She held her little girl in her arms as if she were a treasure. "Girl, what's going on?"
"Our team encountered an ambush by the Japanese. When we were trying to break out, Nurse Huang handed Xiao Shengli to me and told me to bring Xiao Shengli to Shanghai to see his grandmother if I could survive the breakout."
……
Ambushed by the Japanese?
Breakout?
Mrs. He's heart seemed to be blocked by a huge rock. She asked anxiously, "Miss, how is Xiaolan now?"
"I don't know. The team was broken up." The girl said in a low voice.
"Where's Guan?"
"Captain He is not with us."
"Girl, how did you get here?"
"We fled all the way here. The Japanese searched the mountains intensively. I hid with Xiao Shengli during the day and traveled at night." A smile appeared on the girl's tired face.
"Thank you, girl, you have worked hard. Thank you so much." Mrs. He said excitedly as she looked at the little girl who had experienced many vicissitudes of life.
"It's not hard, it's not hard." The little girl waved her hands repeatedly, "Finally I see you, I have completed the task assigned to me by Nurse Huang."
Small victory!
"Her name is Victory?"
"Yes, Shengli, He Shengli." The girl nodded vigorously. "It was Captain He who gave me this name. It means victory in the war of resistance against Japanese aggression."
As she spoke, the little girl licked her dry lips. Her stomach growled and the little girl looked embarrassed.
"You must be hungry, girl."
"I begged for some food along the way." said the little girl, looking at Xiao Shengli.
Mrs. He immediately understood that the little girl was definitely saving all the food she had begged for with great difficulty for Xiao Shengli.
"Mother Jing, check to see if there's anything to eat and bring some over first." Mrs. He quickly ordered, "Make some more sugar porridge."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Girl, what's your name?"
"My name is Tong Wenshu, and I'm 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 sleeping soundly in her arms, and her heart was filled with deep sadness.
……
The car is driving on the crowded road.
Trumpets sounded one after another.
The driver of a Citroen car honked his horn, signaling the oncoming cars to give way.
The oncoming car not only did not give way, but also made a gesture, indicating that he should get out of the way and let him go first.
The Citroen driver got angry and was about to speak, but then he saw the license plate of the car opposite clearly. He was so scared that he quickly smiled and gestured, turned the steering wheel and got out of the way.
"Achan, why 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 fleet." The driver said quickly.
"'Young Mr. Cheng'? Cheng Qianfan?" The young man snorted coldly, but said nothing else.
He had just returned to Shanghai for a few days when his father repeatedly reminded him of certain people he should not offend, one of whom was Cheng Qianfan. Although he actually did not take this small deputy chief inspector of the Central Police Station in the French Concession seriously, he dared not disobey his father.
……
"Brother Fan, the car just now belonged to Hou Tingfu, the Chinese manager of Mercantile Bank." Li Hao glanced at the license plate on the opposite side and turned to Cheng Qianfan and said.
Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly. He lifted the car curtain and prepared to say hello to Hou Tingfu, but he saw a young man in the back seat who was also looking at him.
Cheng Qianfan smiled and nodded.
The other party looked at him expressionlessly.
"Who is in the car?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"I don't know. Do you need me to arrange someone to find out?" Li Hao asked.
"No need." Cheng Qianfan shook his head and asked Li Hao, "Is it done?"
"Yes, I found Meng Kui from the Target Range Prison." Li Hao said, "This guy has been eager to get close to you, Brother Fan. As soon as I found him, he patted his chest and agreed."
An image of a man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks emerged in Cheng Qianfan's mind, who would nod and bow every time he saw him.
"We must keep a close eye on this person." Cheng Qianfan ordered.
Knowing clearly that Wang Hengyi was a member of the Military Control Commission, he still dared to act without hesitation. Having such a person in prison is equivalent to having a potential traitor there. Some things need to be prepared and prevented in advance.
"understood."
"Ping Chongyang will be back to Shanghai in two days. I will go to Nanjing after meeting this guy." Cheng Qianfan said thoughtfully, "This time when we go to Nanjing, I will take Haozi with me, and you stay in Shanghai to look after the family."
"Got it, Brother Fan." Li Hao nodded. He was well prepared to stay in Shanghai.
He is not only from the Special Intelligence Department, but more importantly, he knows that he is the one that 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 showed a shy look and said, "I'll listen to Brother Fan."
"Hahaha." Cheng Qianfan laughed, "Get married sooner and have a baby sooner."
He said to Li Hao, "Zhou Ru is smarter than you. I'm not in Shanghai. If you have anything to discuss, please consult with Zhou Ru."
"Yes, Brother Fan."
The convoy moved forward and finally stopped at the gate of Chu Mansion.
Hearing the noise, Liu Xia came out to greet them.
"Why are you here just now? The Secretary General has been waiting for you for a while."
"I haven't seen Sister Xia for a few days. I can't go empty-handed," Cheng Qianfan lifted the gift box in his hand, "The most modern perfume in France."
"You are a man of conscience." Liu Xia took the gift box and gave Cheng Qianfan a charming look.
……
at dusk.
Jin Kemu's car stopped in front of the He residence on Honolulu Road. He got out of the car carrying his briefcase and rang the doorbell.
"Uncle is back." Mother Jing came out to open the door and took Jin Kemu's briefcase.
"Where's Sister?"
"The madam is upstairs." Mother Jing hesitated to speak.
"what happened?"
"Uncle will know when he sees Madam." Mother Jing said, her eyes full of joy.
Jin Kemu looked surprised and went upstairs, where he 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 niece's granddaughter." Mrs. He said happily.
"Niece's granddaughter?" Jin Kemu was stunned, then he immediately reacted, took two steps forward, stared at the little girl in the elder sister's arms, and asked in a low voice, "This, this is Guan's..."
"A Guan and Xiao Lan's child." Mrs. He said.
"How could Aguan's child..." Jin Kemu asked in astonishment.
Mrs. He then told her brother about how Tong Wenshu, a young nurse from the New Fourth Army, had escorted little Shengli all the way to Shanghai to find his relatives.
"You mean, this little girl escorted her niece and granddaughter all the way here?" Jin Kemu asked.
"That's right." Mrs. He wiped her tears and said, "The little girl has suffered a lot along the way. Poor little Shengli, such a little girl has also suffered so much."
……
"How are Guan and Xiaolan?"
"Ah Guan is not with Xiao Lan. Xiao Lan..." Mrs. He said with a sad face, "I don't know if Xiao Lan is okay."
"It should be fine." Jin Kemu said comfortingly, "If this little nurse can break out, Xiaolan must be blessed by God."
His expression turned serious. "Sister, this matter must be kept secret. Guan is registered with the Japanese. If the Japanese knew that this is Guan's child..."
"Of course I know this." Mrs. He said.
"Who else knows about this?"
"Only Mother Jing knows about this at home. Mother Jing is the elder in the family, she won't say anything nonsense."
"In any case, we must be careful." Jin Kemu took Xiaonan from Mrs. He's hands. He looked at the little girl in his arms lovingly and said thoughtfully, "We have a little girl and a little girl at home. This must be something that cannot be concealed."
"So, tell others that the little girl fled to Shanghai with her sister and begged at the door of their home. You are a Buddhist and took them in out of pity," said Jin Kemu.
"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..."
"We must pay attention to this." Jin Kemu said seriously, "Not to mention Guan, even I myself, the Japanese have long hated me, so it's always better to be careful."
"I know." Mrs. He took the sleeping little girl back from her brother's arms, "Poor little Shengli, you must bless your father and mother."
"The child's name needs to be changed too." Jin Kemu frowned and said, "If he can't be called Shengli, then he should be called..."
He thought for a moment and said, "Just call her Xiaoli, beautiful Li."
……
"Uncle Chu, we are back in Nanjing this time, and the new regime has been officially established." Cheng Qianfan said happily, "Uncle Chu has officially assumed the post of Vice Premier of the Executive Yuan. Uncle, you are full of ambitions, and you can realize your grand plans now."
"The situation is difficult and the people are suffering." Chu Mingyu sighed and said, "Everything is difficult at the beginning. To be honest, I am full of worries right now."
"The 400 million Chinese people are lucky to have Uncle Chu, Mr. Wang and other great men of the country." Cheng Qianfan also said with emotion, "After going through untold hardships, the new regime has finally been established. It is a blessing for the country, the nation and the people."
"The new regime has just been established, and all industries are waiting to be developed." Chu Mingyu looked at Cheng Qianfan with a smile, "An old man like me must work hard and devote all my energy. Young people like you should also strive to be the best and work hard for the country and the people."
"Uncle Chu's teachings are engraved in my heart." Cheng Qianfan said solemnly, "Mr. Wang's peaceful salvation of the country is the most true path for China at present. I will definitely follow Uncle Chu closely and contribute to the country and the people."
"Very good." Chu Mingyu nodded slightly. "Regarding your position arrangement in the new regime, what do you personally think?"
"My nephew will follow your uncle's arrangements in everything." Cheng Qianfan said respectfully.
……
"Tell me about it." Chu Mingyu said, "You are my most admired and respected nephew. In front of me, there is nothing you cannot say."
"Yes, uncle." Cheng Qianfan said, "I am willing to contribute to the new regime, but you also know that my identity and work in the French Concession in Shanghai..."
"Well." Chu Mingyu nodded, "Your concerns are reasonable."
He took the teacup handed over by Cheng Qianfan and said slowly, "Your identity and work in the French Concession will be of great benefit to the new regime's work in Shanghai and East China."
"I've thought about it carefully." Chu Mingyu said, "You still have to focus on Shanghai. You can't lose the basics."
"Yes!"
"However, we can't completely let go of Nanjing." Chu Mingyu said seriously, "You are clear about the situation of the new regime. Although some people agree to join, they inevitably have other ideas."
Chu Mingyu said earnestly, "The new regime has only a few powers and positions. If we don't occupy them, some people will try their best to seize them."
"Nephew will follow uncle's arrangements." Cheng Qianfan said quickly.
"I see." Chu Mingyu said, "In the military, Mr. Wang is the one who needs to be focused on. You hold the rank of major general in the military, so if there is anything, you can have a say."
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan showed his gratitude, "I am deeply grateful for your cultivation of me, uncle."
"Also," Chu Mingyu said thoughtfully, "The Jiangsu Provincial Government has just been established. I can help you find a suitable position in the provincial government."
