Master of Pretenders

?The next day, Ming Lou consulted his eldest sister, and took his two younger brothers to the alley where Ah Cheng used to live.The neighbors all praised Ah Cheng for his good life, and he became the young master of the Ming family.Ah Cheng sincerely thanked everyone who helped him, and distributed all the New Year's goods he brought to everyone.Mingtai also took out all the candies in his pocket and distributed them to the children in the alley.Mingtai came to such a place for the first time, and pulled Ah Cheng by the corner of his clothes, "Brother Ah Cheng, don't these children have money to study at home?" Ah Cheng said, "Not necessarily, as long as the family can live well, adults can still work , can also let the children read some books, not all of them are like me." Minglou told him that many children here are working part-time, and besides going to school, they also do a lot of odd jobs to supplement their families.Mingtai let out a long sigh like a little adult.

Minglou seemed to understand the elder sister's painstaking efforts, and gradually calmed down, and stopped talking about student activities, and only devoted himself to reviewing homework, often staying up late.

Ming Jing felt sorry for his younger brother, so he warmed up the milk and sent it to his study. "You can study at ease, so my sister will feel at ease. Take care of your body and don't get tired." Then he asked, "Which university are you going to study and what major are you going to study?" Minglou replied to her sister, "I want to go to Nanjing to study at Southeast University. I study economics, and I hope I can help my sister in the future.” Ming Jing smiled and rolled his eyes, “it’s good to go to Nanjing to study, it’s not too far away from home, and my sister can handle family affairs. Just choose your favorite major, and do it in the future.” I'm a scholar." Minglou tentatively asked, "Sister, I must study hard, but I just have a request." "What request?" "I think, if you want to study economics in the future, you probably need to know some practical business. Some of the company's business is entrusted to me. For example, the cotton mill..." Speaking of the cotton mill, Mingjing immediately became alert, "What do you want to do?" Minglou took his sister's hand and held it in his own.For the first time, Ming Jing felt that his brother's palm had grown bigger, and he could already hold her hand firmly.

The mature male voice also thought in my ear, "Sister, you also know what I'm thinking. Since our Ming family supports this matter, let me participate in it, which is my heart. It's still my sister who is in charge, and some errands will be handed over to you." Do it for me, it's better than outsiders." Ming Jing rubbed his younger brother's hand, "I know your heart, but this matter is risky. You have no experience. What if something goes wrong? Wouldn't that kill my sister?" Sister... I believe that you have a perfect plan, and the channels are safe. If it is really dangerous, then don't do it. Brothers are still young, if you are in danger, I really don't know what to do. " Ming Jing thought for a while, and finally said, "Okay, my sister promises you."

In 1927, it was a very turbulent year for the Ming family, for Shanghai and even for the whole of China.

The Nationalist Government's Northern Expedition seemed to be going smoothly, but in fact it was undercurrents.Mingjing asked Minglou to terminate all contact with the family's business on the grounds of taking college entrance exams.Although she is young, she has more or less experience in the business field.Moreover, the business of the Ming family is closely related to the economy and people's livelihood, so it is not easy not to wade into the muddy waters of politics.At this time, she couldn't let her brother be distracted and make a mistake.

Besides, Young Master Ming didn't dare to be negligent at this time, in case there was any mistake in the matter of taking the university entrance examination, let alone being laughed at by others, he himself would not have the guts to step into the house. ?
