Golden Pink Building

The news of Zhao Zhonghua's stroke spread quickly, and Bai Shaoyi was drinking coffee with the secretary of the Minister of Justice in the cafe when he heard the news. "Oh, Lao Zhao is sick. It's really unpredictable. I remember a few days ago I heard that Lao Zhao was in the Yihong Courtyard on Yingyingxie Street. I got sick before the edges touched it." Fengju called Bai Shaoyi to make an appointment that day, but Bai Shaoyi found out that it was Fengju who stole the concubine's banquet when she fell down.Feng Ju spent a lot of money to redeem a prostitute named Yan Hong and place her in a golden house outside. At the banquet, everyone said that the girls in Bada Hutong were good, whose cook was good, and who was there recently. Bai Shaoyi was fortunate enough to hear a lot of gossip about spending money to show off.

"That's all right, the minister should be relieved. Recently, the higher-ups are very dissatisfied with the insider information, and the president's brother-in-law is also involved in it. That Zhao Zhonghua released the news, which made his uncle earn less, so he did it. He will be hated to the point of gnashing his teeth. In fact, Zhao Zhonghua himself is not strict in his work and is too greedy, which is well known to everyone. But he is worried that if Zhao Zhonghua makes a fuss, more people will be involved, and the people from the procuratorate and the police station stared at him several God, I have caught a lot of evidence. But I was worried that he would make a fuss, so I didn't dare to do anything. I just talked to him yesterday, and I was worried that Zhao Zhonghua would make trouble today. It's all right now, I just quietly called the person in charge of the case People, they said that Zhao Zhonghua's condition is very serious, although his life is saved, but it will be difficult to move freely in the future." Secretary Qin sighed deeply, and vomited bitterness to Bai Shaoyi: "I look at my brother now, and I really regret it I was supposed to go to school when I returned to China, but Naihe set foot on Vanity Fair, and now I can’t turn around.”

"You are so cheap and good-looking. When brother Qin is on the rise, why do you envy me, an idler? You are highly valued by the minister. It is not easy to become a judge or prosecutor in the future. I heard that the Jiaoji Railway Isn't the lawsuit around here a little bit different?" Bai Shaoyi casually played with the exquisite cigarette case, the sterling silver case was decorated with exquisite patterns, the inlaid obsidian and the obsidian inlaid on his cuff contrasted each other.

"The government means to take back the Jiaoji Railway. Everyone knows that the Japanese are the hardest to speak and the most greedy. Originally, the Deqing Company funded the construction of this day, and the design and operation of the railway were all carried out in accordance with the German method. Recently you I also know that the international situation is such that Germany is defeated, and Japan wants to take over this road. This is absolutely impossible. You think that there are several important coal mines, iron mines and gold mines connected along the Jiaoji Railway, and the geographical location restricts the gateway to the Central Plains. If It was taken over by the Japanese. Didn’t the Japanese control the gateway connecting Beijing and Jiangnan in the Central Plains? Originally, the Ministry of Communications handled this matter, but now the Ministry of Communications does not want to shoulder the responsibility alone, so it simply pushes out the Jiaoji Railway. The Ministry of Communications should know about this." Qin Guangyao sighed for a long time: "I just recommend my brother to the Minister. You were very good when you were a consultant in the Ministry of Communications. You should also come out to help the Jiaoji Railway. State effect."

Bai Shaoyi didn't want to take over Zhao Zhonghua's mess at all, and hurriedly declined: "I just want to go home and live in peace every day. You also know why I didn't become that consultant. After all, Lao Zhao has a little friendship with my family. I do this Tell people what to say."

"That's right, I didn't expect Miss Zhao to be a hot rose, just like Carmen. I heard that Zhao Yihan came to Beijing as soon as she returned to China, and I knew that she still never forgets you all these years. Reunion after a broken mirror. But I understood when I saw your bride. There is a wife who looks like a fairy, who would like a greasy beauty who is too smoky. How about that person Zhao Yihan? By the way, she looks like a German hoof. Not bad, but it’s a pity that she gets tired of it after a long time. What is the origin of the person she married, and it is said that she specifically troubles you in class. Don’t let that person know what happened to you before.” Qin Guangyaosheng stared at it with great interest. Bai Shaoyi had a gossip expression on her face.

"Her current husband is a talent, so don't mention it. He is no longer taking my courses. I have nothing to do to others. As for what others think, I can't control it. You should go back to work and wait for leisure." Let's get together again." Said Bai Shaoyi put some money under the plate, and stood up first with the briefcase.

Qin Guangyao put a letter on the table into his briefcase: "How can I ask you to spend money? You never write letters of recommendation casually, but this time you made an exception to write a letter to my brother."

"Your brother worked hard on his own. It's not that I didn't write a letter of recommendation. It's because I didn't meet a suitable candidate. But your brother is going to study in the UK, is your family willing?" Qin Guangyao's younger brother wanted to study in the UK, and Bai Shaoyi enthusiastically gave it to him. He wrote a letter of recommendation.

"This is exactly what my father meant. The current situation is too chaotic. My father doesn't want us brothers to be in the officialdom." Qin Guangyao said in a low voice, mysteriously: "My father may not look like he came from the imperial examinations of the older generation, but he has a good eye. , He said that the aura of the king in Beijing is fading day by day, but the south may do a lot. Don’t think it’s Zhouyi Fengshui, it’s mysterious and mysterious, but I think it makes sense.”

Bai Shaoyi smiled slightly: "Your father is really a master of the world, I must visit that day." The two of them left the cafe and dispersed separately.

When Bai Shaoyi left the cafe, he thought he would go to the hospital for a walk, so he called a rickshaw to the hospital to see Zhao Zhonghua.Bai Shaoyi got off the car at the entrance of the hospital, just as she saw her own car coming, Mrs. Bai rolled down the window and looked at her son and said, "What are you doing here, it's important to go home and stay with Qingqiu if you have nothing to do."

Bai Shaoyi didn't want to go to the muddy water, but this morning Bai Wenxin ordered him to go to Zhao Zhonghua on his behalf, and Bai Shaoyi also wanted to see the expressions of Zhao Yihan and her father with his own eyes, so he came here to give birth.Listening to her mother's words, Bai Shaoyi hesitated and said, "How can I explain to my father?"

"Your father is confused. Just get in the car and go home and ask the driver to pick me up again." Just as I was speaking, a girl's voice cut in: "Hello, Brother Bai, and my aunt is here." The mother and son of the Bai family Turning around, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl was timidly looking at the mother and son of the Bai family with a lunch box.Mrs. Bai was stunned for a moment before remembering, she said perfunctorily: "It's the second young lady of the old Zhao family, why did you come to the girl's house alone, it's better to be with this person when you go out." "I'll bring food to father Yes, my sister and brother-in-law have been guarding the hospital all night. I know the way so I won’t get lost. Brother Bai, you’re here too. Why didn’t you see Sister Bai?” Zhao Yihan’s younger sister, Zhao Yiping, looks exactly like her older sister Although they look very similar, their temperaments are completely different.Zhao Yiping is the kind of gentle and weak girl, I feel pitiful and pitiful, as if anyone who speaks loudly to her will scare her to tears, the kind of innocent little white rabbit.Bai Shaoyi was afraid to avoid the Zhao sisters, so he nodded stiffly. Mrs. Bai frowned unrecognizably, and interrupted Zhao Yiping: "Let's go and see your father first, your elder brother Bai has a lot of things to do. Will be leaving."

The three of them arrived at Zhao Zhonghua's ward, Ouyang Yujian and Zhao Yihan didn't go anywhere, only Zhao Zhonghua was lying on the hospital bed alone, Bai Shaoyi looked at the people lying on the bed, feeling a little unreal.In his impression, Zhao Zhonghua is a person who is always glamorous and decent. Zhao Zhonghua is very handsome, his hair is always combed shiny, a mustache on his lips is neatly shaved, and his clothes are always the best whether it is a suit or a long robe. Materials, if not the best materials, are the latest styles.His body always exudes the fragrance of cologne, his fat face glows, and he laughs from time to time.Zhao Zhonghua is just a colorful glass bead.

But Zhao Zhonghua, who was lying on the bed, turned into a loaf of cold bread overnight in a bakery. His round figure seemed to have lost its strength overnight, and his skin lost its luster, turning into a yellowish-white wood residue.Zhao Zhonghua closed his eyes tightly and fell asleep.Looking at Old Zhao on the bed, Mrs. Bai couldn't help but sigh. No matter how much she hated seeing this person before, but seeing such a person turned into a half-dead stake, Mrs. Bai's dislike has decreased a lot: "The doctor said your father How is the condition? But is there any hindrance?"

Zhao Yiping lowered her head, stood at the end of the bed and looked at her drowsy father steadily: "The doctor said that his life is not in danger for the time being, but his actions will be greatly hindered in the future. My sister said that when my father's condition stabilizes, he will be taken home to recuperate. , our family may have to go back to the south."

Bai Shaoyi looked at Old Zhao, and couldn't bear it. People's hearts are really strange things. When they had resentment towards Zhao Zhonghua, Bai Shaoyi wished that the father and daughter of the Zhao family would stumble heavily, and only when their heads were bleeding could they feel better. .But the wish came true, and Bai Shaoyi was not as happy as expected.

Mrs. Bai was about to say to Zhao Yiping: "If you have any troubles, just speak up." When there was a sound of footsteps, Ouyang Yujian came in with a dark face.When he saw Mrs. Bai and Bai Shaoyi in the ward, he was obviously stunned. Ouyang Yujian had only seen Mrs. Bai from a distance, and suddenly met face to face. He was a little hesitant to confirm Mrs. Bai's identity.On the other hand, Bai Shaoyi, Ouyang would not forget even if she turned into ashes.He nervously asked: "What are you doing here!" But as soon as Ouyang said that, he felt ashamed in front of Bai Shaoyi again. There were flowers and fruits on the bedside cabinet, what else could he do?

Bai Shaoyi glanced at Ouyang Yujian coldly, and said with a fake smile: "I will accompany my mother to visit Uncle Zhao. Since Uncle Zhao is resting, we won't bother you anymore." Mrs. Bai looked Ouyang Yujian up and down, as if she wanted to Find evidence in him that he is a descendant of the Kim family.Looking at the similar outlines of Ouyang Yujian and Jin Quan when they were young, Mrs. Bai could only sigh inwardly, but the child looked crooked.

"Our two families can be regarded as family friends. I heard that Lao Zhao was ill and came to see him. Shao Yi's father has too many things to do, so I wait for him to come over when he has time." Saying this, Mrs. Bai nodded to Zhao Yiping, and said goodbye to her son.

The mother and son came out of the ward. Bai Shaoyi saw that the door was deserted and there were no flower baskets. In Zhao Zhonghua's ward, there were only one or two poor flower baskets. This floor was basically full of status patients. People were coming, and the visiting flower baskets lined up all the way to the door.Only Zhao Zhonghua's room was very deserted, and it was true that everyone pushed the wall down.

"Take this away and throw it away, we don't accept their hypocritical kindness. But they just want to see a joke, what kind of hypocrisy!" Ouyang's angry voice came from the ward, and then Zhao Yiping came out with the flower basket sent by the Bai family.Unexpectedly, the mother and son of the Bai family did not go far away, and Zhao Yiping's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, bleeding could drip.

Bai Shaoyi was not dissatisfied, he and Mrs. Bai pretended not to see anything, turned around and left.
