Two months later, his father came to pick him up with the blond and blue-eyed soldiers, and the major handed He Zijing, who was listless, to his father.

"I didn't treat the second young master badly. You see, he is not as uncomfortable as living at home for the brocade clothing award?"

"Why is Zijing like this?"

"Maybe it's because he stayed in the Major's Mansion for a long time and was reluctant to give up, or let him live in the Major's Mansion?"

"No need." Father He turned around and saluted the soldiers behind him.

"Thank you Price for your help. I will take the dog back first, and I will hold a banquet another day to thank you."

Father He looked at He Zijing carefully on the way, always feeling that something was wrong, he was no longer the radiant He Zijing, now he was sluggish, slack in thinking, unresponsive, Father He almost didn't want to admit that it was He Zijing.

He Zijing was very quiet along the way, but his body trembled slightly.

Father He knew that Master He was going to pick up the second young master today, so there was a continuous stream of beating gongs, drums and firecrackers, and the brazier was placed at the gate. When they saw the car stop, they all rushed up.

When the car stopped, He Zijing suddenly thumped like a mad beast, drooling and tearing all over his body.He fell to the ground, his body twitching almost crazily.There was an indistinct sound from his mouth.

"Zijing, what's wrong with you, Zijing?"

"Father, I want...I want..."

"What do you want? I'm already home, don't be afraid."

"Second Young Master, Second Young Master."

The boy ran out from nowhere and knelt beside He Zijing. He was about to help He Zijing get up, but He's father ordered someone to drive him away. He set fire to him so that He Zijing was imprisoned by the Japanese. So he drove the child out of the house, who would have thought that he would appear again when He Zijing came back.

"Zijing, I will give you whatever you want..."

Father He wept and hugged the trembling He Zijing gently. He must have suffered a lot in the hands of the Japanese. He often did not cooperate with the Japanese army and even fought against him everywhere. The Japanese army would definitely not be able to let He Zijing go.

"Big Smoke... Dad..."

"what?"

"I want to smoke a big cigarette... a big cigarette..."

He Zijing's eyes were scarlet and he grabbed Father He's skirt, muttering two words all the time, Father He held his hand instead and pushed him to the pillar, forcing He Zijing to look at him.

"Are you addicted to smoking?"

Everyone knows that the opium is powerful, and the Qing Dynasty will become what it is today, most likely because of the opium. He is so stupid that he sees He Zijing sluggish and thinks that he is tortured by the Japanese. It turns out that He Zijing smoked opium. , How did this kind of harmful thing get infected? Father He was anxious and angry.

"father……"

I don't care to say that Father He brought He Zijing back to the mansion and asked the housekeeper to buy opium. Although opium is a forbidden product, there are still people who offer it for sale.

"Zijing, why are you so ignorant that you smoke opium! How long has it been?"

"About two months."

"That's okay, I'll ask a doctor to help you quit smoking."

"Can I quit? Zijing really doesn't want to be inseparable from that kind of thing. Zijing doesn't want to become what he is today. Dad, help me."

He Zijing barely supported his body, his hands were still shaking.

"I'm going to ask the Western doctor. This thing is from the West. They must have a solution. Don't be afraid, Zijing, you can quit it."

"Second Young Master, what's wrong with Second Young Master? Master let me meet Second Young Master!"

"Father...he..."

He Zijing fainted from the discomfort before he finished speaking, the boy ran over and was stopped by the servants.

"If he dares to step into the house again, there is no need to show mercy. Don't let him step into He's house even if he is beaten to death."

He may be a calamity sent by the heavens, otherwise these things would not be related to him. If he didn't set fire to the Japanese, they wouldn't say that Zijing was buried in the flames. No need to go through a lot of trouble.

The boy rushed in again and again to snoop on the slightest news, but was beaten out. Several servants pressed him to the ground with wooden sticks. He was still thumping, his fingers scratching the ground until it was bloody.

"What happened to the second young master? I don't want to go in. I just want to know what happened to the second young master. Please tell me."

The boy didn't resist any more, and those servants couldn't do anything to him anymore. After all, he was still a child, and they didn't dare to intervene in the master's affairs, let alone listen in on them. Besides, their conversations were quiet, and they could only vaguely hear the second young master asking Master save him.

"Tell me what's wrong with the second young master and I'll leave, please."

One of the servants didn't bother to find any reason to get rid of the little beggar with him.

"The second young master is ill."

"Is it serious? What kind of medicine is needed for what disease..."

"If you don't leave, you can continue to fight. If you have any illness, the master can help the second young master get better. Why are you worrying about it? Do you know what illness can be cured?"

The servant took back the stick and stood outside the house again, the boy got up and knelt on the ground and kowtowed violently.

"Brothers, if you have any news about the Second Young Master, please tell me, please, I will kowtow to you, please..."

"All right, all right, hurry up, or the master will get angry again when he sees you, and we won't be merciful when the time comes."

"Thank you brothers, thank you very much." The boy kowtowed a few more times to thank them.

Afterwards, he would come every day to inquire about the Second Young Master and then distribute the money he begged to all the brothers, so that he could get the money for whatever he said.

The boy knew that the second young master had eaten opium, but he didn't know what opium was. He heard from the servant that opium was a kind of poison that harmed people. He asked everywhere for antidote to opium, but found nothing. Even the doctor said that he ate opium. You have to rely on yourself to detoxify, and most of them die without treatment.

He wanted to go back to the second young master to see what was going on, and he was also afraid that there would be no second young master in the future, so he wanted to stay with the second young master until the second young master left. Since then, he has been kneeling in He Mansion every day to beg He The master took him in, regardless of the wind and snow or the sun, He Mu couldn't bear to recruit him into the mansion.
