Chapter 157 Future father-in-law and mother-in-law
It was only when I stepped into Wu Jing's home that I realized what it means to be rich. The living room is spacious and well-furnished, just like Yuan Shikai's living room. There are all kinds of novelty gadgets and clocks on a row of cabinets by the wall.
, gramophone, and radio are not fashionable items, but Wu Jing's house is extraordinary. The big clock on the wall is as tall as a person, and the gramophone's large speaker is several times bigger than the head. A woman's strange voice is coming from the radio.
Ma Xingkong and Long Jie sat in chairs neatly. Someone brought them two cups of tea and asked them to wait. Wu Shijun came down from upstairs wearing loose clothes. He was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties.
He has the most fashionable slicked back hair, with all his hair neatly facing the back of his head. He holds a pipe used by British gentlemen in his right hand.
"What do you two want from me?" Wu Shijun knew so many people that he couldn't think of Ma Xingkong and Long Jie for a while.
Ma Xingkong smiled and said: "Mr. Wu, you're welcome. In fact, we are not here to see you this time, but to come to classmate Wu Jing!"
Wu Shijun became alert and looked at the two young men up and down with his eyes. He seemed to think they looked familiar, as if he had seen them there. They were businessmen after all, and their brains reacted quickly, and they didn't show any signs of it on their faces while thinking about it. Wu Shijun chuckled: "
I still don’t know who you two are? Are you Jing’er’s classmates?”
Ma Xingkong shook his head: "To be honest, I'm not a classmate. It's just because classmate Wu Jing hasn't been to school in the past two days that we took the liberty to come to visit!"
"Humph! This damn girl is not obedient at all and leads outsiders to bully her fiancé! What a lack of discipline!" A woman came down from the stairs with a thump, swinging her well-fitting cheongsam, revealing a section of her white legs.
This woman was only twenty-seven years old, with a thin face, and her thin mouth kept complaining: "Wu Shijun, don't care about your daughter, you almost bit me!"
The woman's appearance was not beautiful. She was getting older, and there were some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. Although she used a lot of rouge and gouache to cover up, she still couldn't cover up her old and yellow face. Wu Shijun frowned, and then the woman saw clearly.
Two strangers immediately became friendly and said: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I made you both laugh! This is the only daughter in the family who makes me worried!"
Ma Xingkong and Long Jie smiled awkwardly. Wu Shijun winced: "These two are Jing'er's classmates. Jing'er hasn't been to school in the past two days. Come and have a look!"
"Why go to school when things like this are going on!" Ning said with a straight face, "She will learn how to seduce wild men at a young age. If she is let out, who knows what kind of trouble she will cause!"
Long Jie suddenly stood up: "I said you don't even ask what happened, what a wild man! That boy named Wang is not a good thing either, he should be taught a lesson!"
Wu Shijun and Ning were both stunned. They looked at each other, and Wu Shijun looked at Long Jie: "You were the one who injured Mr. Wang?"
Seeing that Long Jie had spilled the beans, Ma Xingkong had no choice but to nod: "This guy surnamed Wang always pesters Wu Jing, so..."
"What kind of entanglement! We are an unmarried couple, and it's completely normal for us to fight and fight. Who do you think you two are?" Ning refused to let anyone get away with it, and started scolding Luo Ma Xingkong and Long Jie again.
Long Jie wanted to have a fit, but Ma Xingkong held him back. The more Ning spoke, the more unpleasant he said, and he almost pointed at Ma Xingkong's nose and cursed: "You two brats, how dare you come to me?"
Come home, believe it or not, I will call the patrol room immediately and ask someone to come and take you two away!"
Wu Shijun frowned and smoked his cigarette. Ning talked for a long time, but no one spoke. Ning was a little bored: "Wu Shijun, you are talking! This daughter of yours has brought wild men to the house.
Now, you still want to protect her? Why don't you drive them out!"
Ning's voice became louder and louder. Wu Jing upstairs heard clearly. She did not expect that Ma Xingkong would come to her home. She wanted to go out, but the door was locked. She knocked hard and shouted loudly,
But no one paid attention to her.
Ma Xingkong and Long Jie tried their best to suppress the anger in their chests. On the contrary, Ma Xingkong was the first to hold back. He slapped the table hard, and the nanmu table shook slightly, and several teacups on it jingled.
"Enough! Have you finished speaking?"
Mrs. Ning unleashed her maternal power. He spoke louder than Ma Xingkong: "Get out of here, get out of our home, you are not welcome here!"
Ma Xingkong looked at Mrs. Ning, and had the desire to go up and kick her. After thinking about it, she suppressed her anger. Seeing that she had the upper hand, Mrs. Ning shouted loudly: "Mother Zhang, I'm here for the patrol room."
Detective Huang called and said there was a robber in our house!"
Zhang Ma did not dare to agree and looked at Wu Shijun. Wu Shijun sighed: "You guys go!"
After walking out of Wu's house, Long Jie became angrier as he thought about it: "Brother, this woman is too unreasonable!"
Ma Xingkong said: "Forget it, why bother with this kind of woman!" Ma Xingkong raised his head and looked upstairs. A window on the second floor opened a small crack. Wu Jing's handsome face looked down with tears.
Ma Xingkong only glanced at it, and felt a pain in his heart. Sister Huo had this look in her eyes before she died, showing farewell and helplessness. Things buried deep in Ma Xingkong's heart burst out. He must protect this girl and his own
woman.
After leaving the French Concession, Ma Xingkong did not return to Beijing University. He went straight to the overpass. At the door of Chang San's house, Ma Xingkong sent the car and walked into Chang San's house. When he saw several people at the door, two of them were wearing Western clothes and sitting
The man driving the car came here and hurried inside to report to Chang San.
Chang San received the news and rushed out in a panic. Seeing that it was Ma Xingkong, he let out a long sigh. In this world, only foreigners dare not offend, and dressing like this at least has something to do with foreigners. Chang San will never dare to neglect
.
Long Jie smiled: "Did it scare you? Hehehe..."
Ma Xingkong's face looked bad, and Chang San let the two of them into the house. Liu Wu, Hei Wa, and Shitou all gathered around. Hei Wa asked, "What's wrong with my brother?"
"I'm lovesick!" Long Jie told several people about the matter. Everyone shook their heads, and Chang Sanyi listened: "This is not easy to handle. This Wu Shijun often makes noises with foreigners. We don't dare to touch him.
If the foreigners are alarmed, Yuan Shikai will not be able to save him even if he wants to!"
He sent someone to deliver a letter to Zhang Xueliang, and Ma Xingkong temporarily stayed at Chang San's home. For three days, Ma Xingkong locked himself in the house alone without any water. Liu Wu and Hei Wa persuaded a lot at the door.
This time, Ma Xingkong remained quiet without any movement.
At noon that day, Chang San came back in a hurry: "Everyone, I just heard that Wu Shijun is going to marry his daughter tomorrow. The French Concession has been decorated with lights and decorations to celebrate, and people from all walks of life have been invited. Is this going to be hidden from Brother Ma first?"
