Chapter 115 "Deep Love and Rain"

The night is dark, the wind is heavy and the rain is heavy, and it seems that only the sound of pouring rain is left in the bustling city.

Lu Yiping went out in the rain with a broken umbrella. Her mother said that the family had no money, no rice to cook, no money to buy vegetables, and no money to buy medicine. As for her tuition fees for college...

She has always hated the Lu family in the bungalow on Fuxi Road, followed by Aunt Xue. She hated her father Lu Zhenhua the most. After she and her mother were kicked out, this hatred became even stronger.Aunt Xue is Aunt Nine, and their positions have been opposing from the very beginning, but Lu Zhenhua, as a father, used Aunt Xue's mouth to slander her mother and drive them out. In her opinion, she is no longer worthy of being a husband. Father.

Maybe it wasn't right.

Her mother was the eighth concubine, and there was also the seventh concubine in front of her. Some died of illness at an early age, and those who survived did not come to Shanghai.She knew these things since she was a child, and Aunt Xue would talk about those things when she scolded people. Indeed, in comparison, they were indeed very lucky.This luck is probably due to the honor of her compatriot sister Xinping who died of illness at the age of 15.

Xinping, who came from the same mother as her, was ten years older than her. There were more than a dozen daughters in the Lu family, but Xinping was the most favored since she was a child.Even she would be jealous of Ruping Mengping, but Ruping Mengping's treatment was far inferior to that of Xinping back then.

The strong wind blew away the umbrella on the road, and thinking of her mother's order to take the umbrella back, she had to chase after it in the heavy rain.The wind was also against her, rolling faster and further away with the umbrella blowing. A car came from the opposite side, and when it passed by, it happened to roll over a puddle of water, splashing her head and face.

In the end, she failed to pick up the broken umbrella.

She came to Fuxi Road in the French Concession, a beautiful garden building with bright and warm lights inside, and there seemed to be laughter.She has always been a character with strong self-esteem. After being kicked out, she didn't want to bow her head and come back to accept alms, but the reality forced her to bow her head. She could ignore herself, but she couldn't ignore her mother.She knew that she was like a hedgehog, with thorns all over her body, she would stab anyone who came close, which was very unpleasant.She doesn't care, she doesn't expect others to like her, especially the people in this bungalow.

When she walked in, her already drenched body became even colder, and she became more and more embarrassed, like a stray puppy on the street suddenly broke into a place that shouldn't be entered.

Mengping, who is dancing, has completely inherited Aunt Xue's temperament, sharp and mean, and she has always been at odds with her. Looking at her is like looking at an invading enemy.Her father's elder brother, Erjie, was eight years old this year, and with a toy gun, he shot her between the eyebrows.She doesn't like this brother at all in her heart, but she doesn't care about a child either.

The only one who greeted her with a smile was Ruping. She was ten days older than her, but she had completely different personalities.Speaking of Ruping, she is not like Aunt Xue at all, but their backgrounds and years of experience make it impossible for her to be friendly sisters with each other.

She saw that Ruping wore a new bracelet on her wrist, which was shiny silver, very beautiful and very novel.

She is the same age as Ruping, so she also loves beauty, and she also pays attention to beautiful jewelry.

Ruping smiled and said: "This is a popular style this year. It came from the United States. There are seven silver rings, which represent seven days in a week. Seven is the lucky number of Americans, and it happens to be my lucky number. It looks good. Right? It's a bit expensive, 20 yuan."

20 yuan, she and her mother get 20 yuan a month for living expenses from here.

She was angry, painful, unwilling, and embarrassing. All kinds of feelings were in her heart, so facing her father, she said that 20 yuan was not enough, and she wanted 200 yuan.She listed a series of reasons for asking for money, all of which were true, but in fact she didn’t need 200 yuan, but she was stimulated by Ruping’s bracelet, remembering that Erjie’s toy costs hundreds or thousands of yuan, and Erhao often changes it. Girlfriend, I don’t know how much money I spent for this, such as Ping went to college to buy clothes and jewelry, Mengping likes to make friends and socialize...

She is also the daughter of the Lu family, so why can't she ask for 200 yuan?

She wanted to vent her intentions, but she was also determined to ask for more and less to look at the expressions on this side.But her temper was very much like Lu Zhenhua's, she was very stubborn, her mouth was never subdued, and Aunt Xue added fuel to the fire, so the angry Lu Zhenhua took out a horse whip and beat her up.

She was knocked down to the ground in embarrassment and pain. Aunt Xue and her children were watching, so she made up her mind and never came again. She didn't believe that she would starve to death with arms and legs!

"Wow, woof! woof, woof!" Ruping's puppy, Lele, suddenly barked wildly. It jumped up and bit Lu Zhenhua's clothes. Seeing that it was useless, it rushed over to stop Yiping.

Lu Zhenhua confiscated the whip and hit Lele, but he stopped because of shock.

"Lele!" Ruping hurried forward to hug Lele, feeling sorry for Lele and worried about Yiping, and immediately seized the opportunity to persuade: "Dad, stop beating, Yiping didn't mean it, her temper is like this , Dad still doesn’t understand?”

Although Yiping's body hurts, it can't compare to the pain in her heart, but she didn't expect Lele to protect her.It was as if she had just come to this house, and Lele yelled and threw herself on her. Lele's welcome made her feel more at ease than Ruping's kindness.

"How's Lele?" Lu Zhenhua has a lot of strength, and Lele is a dog. At this time, there is already a blood mark on his body, which is particularly eye-catching on the snow-white fur.

"It's okay, I'll take it to see a doctor. Brother, you go and drive." Ruping first looked at Lu Zhenhua and saw that he didn't stop him, then said: "Yiping, come with us, I think you are also worried about Lele .Let’s talk about your injuries...Auntie Pei will be sad when she sees it.”

These words really hit Yiping's weakness, so Yiping remained silent.

But at this moment, Mengping sneered and said: "Ruping, don't care what she does, she won't die after being whipped a few times. Every time I come here, I make a fuss, which makes everyone worry, and now I still treat Lele It's on."

Lu Yiping's temper that had just been suppressed rebounded back, and she said coldly: "Don't worry, I will never come here again!"

Watching her leave, Lele kicked her paws anxiously, whining.

Ruping hugged it tightly, comforting her and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, Yiping has gone home, it's all right." Then she winked at Erhao, it was raining heavily outside, Yiping I didn't bring my umbrella, so it's okay for Erhao to give it away.

Erhao was not happy, he really couldn't stand Yiping's temper.

Wang Xueqin saw it, and immediately shouted: "Don't worry about her, she has a big temper, you will definitely be scolded if you catch up, why bother to put a hot face on a cold ass!"

"Yes! You are not allowed to go!" Lu Zhenhua is used to being a commander, and he likes to give orders. Everyone in the family has to listen to him, but Yiping appeared to oppose him. How could he tolerate it.At this moment, he was still angry, and Wang Xueqin's seemingly consoling words actually added fuel to the fire, so he only felt that he had lightened it just now.

Yiping, who ran out in the rain, met He Shuhuan as if by God's will.

Lying in Ruping's arms, Lele lost her spirits and whimpered in a low voice.Ruping didn't care, she just thought it was a wound.

In the corner of the living room, stood a girl in a red riding suit.She is only 15 years old, and her appearance is delicate and fresh, like a rose that has just bloomed.At this time, the expression on her face was sad, she looked towards the gate of the Lu family, and took a long time to look away. When she looked at Wang Xueqin, there was a little hatred in her eyes, but she looked at Lu Zhenhua with a complicated expression, admiration, admiration Angry, sad, but more resentment.

If someone looked closely, they would find that she was somewhat similar to Ruping Mengping, but no one in the Lu family could see her.

Lu Xinping had already gotten used to it, she was already dead, seven years since her death.

Ever since she died, she seemed to have been locked up somewhere. She couldn't see the light every day, but she could hear voices. The voice she heard the most was Lu Zhenhua's.When she finally saw the light of day again five years ago, she realized that she was trapped in a horsewhip, which belonged to her father, who had been with him for countless years and stained with blood.Since her father arrived in Shanghai, he often stayed alone in the study and often talked alone. She knew a lot of secrets——

She knows why every concubine wears riding clothes to start, knows why her father married so many women like collecting stamps, and even more knows why she can stand out among many sisters and be favored by her father.

This pampering is too heavy, why is she not like this pampering.

When her mother and sister were set up by Wang Xueqin, her father whipped the whip mercilessly. She wanted to stop the whip and tell her father the truth, but she couldn't.Seeing her mother and younger sister kicked out of the house, Wang Xueqin's complacency and her father's indifference, she wanted to go with her mother, but she couldn't.

She was trapped by the horsewhip, and she couldn't get out of the scope of the bungalow.

She never thought that one day her father would raise the whip and the whip would fall on Yiping.How can Dad bear it?That's not his soldier, that's his daughter!

On the side of the road outside Lu's house, there was a person standing in the shadows, and the rainwater flowed aside when it fell, so it didn't stain him in the slightest.

This time Tao Shuobai came to Shanghai in 25, the [-]th year of the Republic of China.

The plot of the small world this time mainly took place in this year. "Love in the Rain" revolves around the emotional entanglement between two half-sisters of the Lu family and a man.Tao Shuobai is not interested in these three people, but finds that the little reporter named Du Fei has a lot of interesting stories, which seems to be a bad luck charm. Even so, he is optimistic by nature and always entertains his friends around him with his own suffering.Hmm... Probably the only one who can't be happy is the director. After all, it is not easy for the director to tolerate Du Fei staying at the newspaper office when he meets a trainee reporter who always smashes the camera.

Naturally, he also discovered the ghost in the Lu family. Like the matchmaker back then, it was a kind of earth-bound spirit.What's more special is that the earth-bound spirits are formed because of persistent obsessions, and they often become evil spirits and evil spirits, but this Lu Xinping still retains the mind of being a human being.After all, if she has the resentment of the earth-bound spirit, even if the Lu family is not killed, they will get sick and die prematurely due to being soaked in resentment day after day and year after year.

That day, He Shuhuan and Du Fei had just returned from running the news outside, when the director found them three musketeers.

Entering the director's office, I saw another person inside.This is a young man about the same age as them, with a tall figure, handsome and cool appearance, and a matching white suit, which is very brilliant.He Shuhuan's family background is very good, his father is a diplomat, he has met many people, but this is the first time he has seen an outstanding person.

Lu Erhao and Du Fei naturally also looked at this person. Du Fei was impatient and quick-mouthed, and immediately asked: "Director, what is the reason for calling us here?"

The director said with a smile: "This Mr. Taoshuo Baitao came from Hankou and planned to gather in Shanghai. You are usually out on the news, and you are familiar with everywhere in Shanghai. From now on, you will take Mr. Tao with you."

Du Fei and the others thought it was strange, but they also guessed that Tao Shuobai had a background, otherwise the director would not be so easy to talk to.

In fact, the director only considered that Tao Shuobai came from the mainland and seemed to come from an extraordinary family background. Besides, the other party didn't want him to pay a salary. He just wanted to run around Shanghai with the reporter.Another one, if this person returns to Hankou in the future, no matter whether he publishes a book or writes an article, mentioning their declaration will also be a good thing to expand his popularity.

After all, it means not to suffer, so it means to do a good deed.

Tao Shuobai is aware of the situation of the world, so he has no time to do it this time.He had been to the Republic of China and exchanged silver dollars for gold, so he bought a few good gifts, which made the director think that he had a good family background.Therefore, the director arranged for three swordsmen to accompany him. After all, He Shuhuan is the son of a family, and Lu Erhao is also a rich son, so it is naturally easier to get along with each other.

Young people like to make friends, especially those who run the news, who are interested in stories themselves, and this Tao Shuobai is full of stories as soon as he appears.

The three agreed, and Du Fei immediately suggested: "Mr. Tao is coming to Shanghai for the first time, let us be the host, and invite Mr. Tao to try Shanghai cuisine."

Tao Shuobai said: "Let me treat you, I will take care of you in the future."

Lu Erhao said: "It's a guest from afar, how can we let the guest spend money, this first meal should be treated by us, and you can treat us to another meal in the future."

Hearing this, Tao Shuobai no longer refuses.

Although these three people are news runners, they are young and have no deep thoughts.During the dinner they asked about Hankou, Tao Shuobai had been prepared, and told them one by one.Du Fei also talked about a lot of news about Shanghai. In comparison, Du Fei really talked the most. Lu Erhao and He Shuhuan talked a lot, while Tao Shuobai spoke concisely, not at all like a journalist.

Of course, he didn't say that he was a journalist.

Everyone who digs news has a problem. When encountering a puzzle, it is like a dog seeing a bone, biting it and refusing to let it go.A mysterious Tao Shuobai came to the door, and the Three Musketeers were completely mobilized to compete with each other to see who could dig out the inside information first. As a result, they would call Tao Shuobai whenever they ran news.

Tao Shuobai rented a house, which is just opposite to He Shuhuan and Du Fei's room. It is also a suite, and because he lives alone, it is very spacious.

This evening, Tao Shuobai went out with He Shuhuan and Du Fei again, and they were going to interview Qin Wuye in Greater Shanghai.

When we arrived in Shanghai, it was full of tourists, and it was very lively.It turned out that a white rose came from Shanghai, youthful and pure, with a melodious singing voice. It just so happened that today was the first time White Rose appeared on stage. Qin Wuye invited several big shots to join him.Tao Shuobai and the others came a bit late, and managed to find a table in the corner.

The messenger delivered the wine list: "What would you like to drink, three gentlemen?"

The list was handed to Tao Shuobai, he opened it and took a look. According to the current prices in Shanghai, the items on the list are all sky-high.While handing the list to He Shuhuan, he asked, "Three glasses of red wine?"

"Just three glasses of red wine." He Shuhuan glanced at it. Although the price of red wine is expensive, the price on this list is still relatively low.

Du Fei only cared about looking around, and then he saw the price of red wine, and immediately jumped up: "One cup costs five yuan, what a robbery!"

Du Fei's hometown is in Anhui, and his family runs a grocery store. His family background is ordinary. Although the family does not need him to send money to support them, they cannot get financial assistance from their families like Lu Erhao and He Shuhuan.He is just an intern reporter of the newspaper now. Although he is only two words different from a regular reporter, his monthly salary is far worse. In addition, he often breaks the camera and causes troubles, and the compensation and maintenance costs are also very high. The apportioned rent and water bills, as well as expenses such as food, clothing and entertainment, these five dollars are really a lot, almost catching up with his half a month's salary, so it's no wonder he made such a fuss.

Du Fei's voice attracted many people's attention, and He Shuhuan quickly pulled him to sit down: "I treat you! No matter what you order tonight, I will treat you. Stop shouting, as if we are bumpkins."

"Say it sooner!" Du Fei heaved a sigh of relief, and smiled at Tao Shuo: "Don't be polite to Shuhuan, he has money in his pocket, and he can't afford to eat. Alas, I can't do it anymore, my salary is gone again. Wait." As soon as the salary is paid next month, I will treat you to dinner!"

Tao Shuobai's attention was elsewhere.

From just now, he noticed that a pair of eyes had been staring here, not because of Du Fei's yelling, but because they were stared at as soon as they came.Although the man also sized up He Shuhuan and Du Fei, he kept his eyes on him more, and his doubts were obvious.

Tao Shuobai's eyes are very useful, passing through the dance hall where the crowd is shaking, a tall man stands in the shadow of the corner, his eyes are as sharp as an eagle, his body is leaning against the wall, he looks lazy, but It is a dormant leopard, and if there is any trouble, he will respond quickly.The man was wearing trousers and a black shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the elbows. He held a cigarette between his fingers. The smoke filled the air. His face was very young, no more than 22 or three years old, with handsome features and handsome features. A man who attracts women.

Different souls!

In this way, it makes sense for the other party to stare at He Shuhuan and Du Fei as the protagonist, and have suspicions about his own existence.However, he always felt that this was far from the case, and he couldn't tell for a while, he suspected that the other party might be Junshi.

At this time, the singing on the stage officially started, and He Shuhuan discovered that Bai Meigui was actually the girl he met that rainy night, a girl full of stories.As soon as the song ended, He Shuhuan ran backstage to look for Bai Meigui, and Du Fei subconsciously followed.

"You don't want to go." Tao Shuobai thought that Du Fei would always get beaten when he fights, so he stopped him. Anyway, He Shuhuan is good at fighting, even if he can't fight, he can win the appreciation of Qin Wuye with his eloquence. It's really unnecessary Worry too much.

Du Fei thought he was implying not to disturb He Shuhuan's pursuit of girls, so he smiled knowingly, and suddenly asked him, "Shuobai, do you have a girlfriend?"

Tao Shuobai shook his head.

"What about the girl you like?" Du Fei asked again.

"No."

"No way?" In Du Fei's eyes, Tao Shuobai was even more outstanding than He Shuhuan, how could he not have a girlfriend?The only explanation is that his vision is too high.Du Fei sighed, and said sweetly and distressedly: "I think Shuhuan is fascinated by that white rose, and I have never forgotten it since the first time I met her, but I am fascinated by Ruping. won't like me."

"Good things take time." If there were no accidents, Du Fei and Lu Ruping experienced a lot of twists and turns, and the ending was quite satisfactory.

Suddenly, the man in the shadow came out and came towards the two of them.

Du Fei also noticed it, but he was amazed: "This man is so tall! Is he 1.9 meters?"

Although the person walking was not 1.9 meters tall, he was 1.8 meters seven. In addition, he was slim and slender, and he walked around neatly. But as soon as he moved, the people in the ballroom were involuntarily attracted.

"Little Fifth Master!" Many regular customers knew this person and greeted him one after another.

When Du Fei heard others calling "Little Fifth Master", he suddenly realized: "I heard that Qin Fifth Master has a adopted son. He was adopted since childhood. He is the youngest among the brothers of the Qin family and ranks fifth. His name is Qin Feng. Qin Feng helped Qin The fifth master is very skillful in managing the business, and he is also trusted by the fifth master Qin, so he is called "little fifth master" outside. Originally, Shuhuan and I planned to expose this little fifth master's affair, who If you know if you don’t know, if you check it, you’ll be surprised. He turned out to be a high-achieving student from Fudan University. He even went to study in the UK, and his relationship history is extremely clean. Tell me, what is this kind of person not a monster?”

Tao Shuo baited Du Fei, and all the masters came to him, still talking.

"The two are talking about me?" Qin Feng sat down in the empty seat, exuding a cold and hard aura, which was extremely oppressive.

Tao Shuobai is not afraid, ordinary people will feel that Du Fei is already sitting upright, afraid that the other party will turn his face.

"What advice does Little Fifth Master have?" Tao Shuobai opened his mouth to check the other party's identity.

Qin Feng pointed in the direction of the backstage: "Just now your friend went to the backstage and caused some trouble. Are you a reporter?"

"Yes, we are the reporting reporters. We originally wanted to interview Qin Wuye." Du Fei stood up as he spoke, he was worried about He Shuhuan's situation.

Qin Feng said understandingly: "Your friend is fine, but he is too nosy, but this method of chasing children is very useful."

Qin Feng's voice is mellow and magnetic, and it is a nice bass.A sentence was spoken by him unhurriedly, which seemed ordinary, but Du Fei always felt that he could hear the taste of ridicule.
