He bought some daily necessities, including curtains, bedding, pots and pans, etc. There were too many things to carry, and the store would deliver them to his door soon.
Qi Yue hired workers to clean it inside and out, and repainted the interior walls. It looked brand new and no longer dilapidated.
Since you have rented a house, you must make it look like you are living a good life.
The courtyard door creaked, and Du Juan, wearing an aqua cheongsam, carrying a white lady's leather bag, and holding a roll of newspaper in her hand, walked in.
Qi Yue stepped forward: "Why are you here?"
Du Juan said: "You told me the address, so I found it. It's not far anyway. Besides, my best friend is moving to a new home. Isn't it just right for me to come?"
Qi Yue was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to continue the sentence.
"I'm kidding you, why are you so nervous?"
Du Juan handed the newspaper to Qi Yue.
This is a "Kant News" newspaper.
Qi Yue unfolded the newspaper, and the headline on the front page read in bold letters: Xie Jin was assassinated at the Yuangu Army Camp, and Nanjing denied involvement in the murder.
The bottom is the news details: In the early morning of April 24, the Lone Army Camp had routine morning exercises. After Xie Jinyuan inspected the barracks, he went to the kitchen to check and found that senior soldiers Hao Dingcheng, Zhang Wenqing, Zhang Wenshun, and You Yaoliang were not doing exercises, so he stepped forward to ask why. Hao Dingcheng
Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he swarmed forward with pickaxes and daggers and stabbed Xie Jinyuan seriously. The murderer was captured on the spot. Xie Jinyuan died at 6 pm that day due to excessive blood loss and rescue efforts failed...
Qi Yue held the newspaper and slowly sat on the wicker chair. After a while, he slowly said: "When Chen Gongbo was the mayor of Shanghai, he sent people many times to persuade Commander Xie to surrender and promised to use the puppet government
As Commander of the First Front Army, Commander Xie tore up his commission letter and cursed Chen Gongbo as a traitor in front of the visitors. In March last year, Wang Jingwei still refused to give up and offered the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Army to induce him to surrender.
The group leader once again sternly refused..."
Qi Yue suddenly choked.
Turn and look out the window.
Du Juan knelt down and gently held Qi Yue's hand: "We all need to express our condolences."
Qi Yue took a deep breath: "Do you know why I joined the army?"
Du Juan thought for a while: "Because of Commander Xie?"
Qi Yue nodded: "When I was studying, my classmates were chatting privately. Some people thought that since the task was completed, continuing to hold on to the Sixing Warehouse was not a strategy that a general should have, but a show of courage. But in my opinion,
What Commander Xie is guarding is not a four-line warehouse, he is guarding the soul of the nation, the integrity of the Chinese people, and the belief that he will fight to the death to resist foreign humiliation!"
Du Juan also expressed emotion: "The Battle of Sihang Warehouse inspired thousands of young people to join the army. Commander Xie is called a national hero and deserves the title..."
"Is anyone home?"
Someone outside the courtyard gate looked into the house.
Qi Yue stood up and took a look. There was a cart parked outside the courtyard gate. The person who came was a boy sent by the store to deliver the goods, so he said, "Someone, come in."
The boy pulled the cart into the yard and moved the goods into the house one by one.
At this time, the importance of women is revealed.
Du Juan was not idle for a moment, instructing the little boy to put things in order.
Normally, the delivery man can leave after delivering the goods. If it were anyone else, the boy might not be willing to work more, but in front of this charming woman, he seemed willing.
An hour later, we were finally done.
The boy wiped the sweat from his forehead and pulled up the cart to leave.
Dujuan stopped him, took out two bills from her wallet and handed them to him: "Sister, you are not in vain. You have worked hard today. It's just a small thing, so take it."
The boy bowed and said, "Thank you, madam!"
Then he bowed to Qi Yue and said, "Thank you, sir!"
After saying these two sentences, he happily pulled the cart out of the yard. This extra income was more than the wages he earned in a day.
Qi Yue never moved.
Sitting on a wicker chair and casually reading the newspaper.
Du Juan came over and sat on another wicker chair, pretending to be angry and said: "You seem to be the boss and don't want to help me."
Qi Yue said: "In the eyes of outsiders, I am the head of the family, so I should be like this."
"You're still guarding a kid who's fifteen or sixteen years old?"
Du Juan was somewhat disapproving.
Qi Yue said sternly: "Du Juan, you can't have such an idea. In our line of work, you have to be careful at all times and don't show your flaws in front of anyone. What's wrong with being fifteen or sixteen years old? You can also watch people's emotions at the age of fifteen or sixteen.
What if he is a spy sent by the enemy?"
Du Juan's heart trembled: "Yes, you are right, I was careless."
She then smiled and said: "It's really hard for you. In order to act like the head of the family, you actually read such a boring newspaper for so long."
Qi Yue also laughed: "I can't just sit there."
The puppet Manchukuo authorities implemented a strict press censorship system, and the contents of newspapers were all the same, except that the enemy was in dire straits, and then they were praising the Japanese and puppets.
The same goes for this "Kant News". The four-eight-page newspaper is almost full of this kind of news.
"Why do you suddenly want to move out?"
Du Juan asked casually.
Qi Yue said: "The people who live in the dormitory are basically police officers. I was promoted to a police lieutenant and my salary has also increased a lot. Generally speaking, if you get promoted and make a fortune, you will definitely seek a better living environment. Moreover, I am now Liu Wenlong's
The deputy has a different identity. If he continues to live in a dormitory, it will make people feel strange. If people feel strange, it will attract attention, and for a lurker, being noticed is extremely dangerous.
thing!"
Du Juan looked at Qi Yue: "No wonder the webmaster said you are a genius agent."
Qi Yue smiled bitterly: "When I get the chance, I will definitely ask the webmaster to stop praising me."
Dujuan smiled and said, "Isn't it bad to be praised?"
Qi Yue sighed: "It's so cold at a high place. I'm afraid that if I don't do a good job, I'll fall down from the praises and get a bruise on my nose and a swollen face."
Dujuan laughed dumbly: "Are you making fun of yourself?"
"It's not self-deprecating, it's a spur to myself."
Qi Yue said seriously.
“Take a tour of your new home!”
Dujuan got up and left the living room.
Qi Yue accompanies her.
Du Juan walked happily and said: "The house is really nice, and the workmanship is very exquisite. Look at the patterns on the window lattice, which are rarely seen in ordinary people's homes... By the way, Qi Yue, what does the landlord do at home?"
Qi Yue said: "The man is from the Salt Administration Department, and the woman seems to be doing nothing."
Du Juan nodded: "That's no wonder. The Salt Administration Department is very fat, and everyone in the family has money. Rumor has it that one time, the director of the Salt Administration Department drank too much and told his subordinates with a loud tongue that his department
Chief, even if the mayor were exchanged for him, he would not change..."
