Chapter 380 The Republic of China: The Moon Is Far Away, A Glass of Heroic Wine Sees the Present 17
On board——
"Qinglan, I want to find my daughter."
All the boats were turned upside down, but Xu Qinglan was not found. The second aunt cried so hard that she couldn't breathe: "That damn girl must have gone to find that actor."
"What evil have I done? I have to pay this dead girl back in this life. I knew that the actor was a scourge. She was so fascinated that she even gave up her life."
She suddenly knelt down and said with tears streaming down her face: "Madam, Jincheng, please save Qinglan. How can she, a girl, survive with the bombardment now? I kowtow to you."
The second aunt felt pain and anxiety in her heart. She complained about Xu Qinglan's disobedience and was worried about whether she was safe now. She desperately kowtowed to others for help.
"Get up quickly. We have watched Qinglan grow up, so why don't we just ignore her?" Mrs. Xu helped her up.
"I'll let the boat pull over in a while, and I'll go back and look for her. Qinglan has always been obedient and well-behaved. There might be something urgent this time, so she didn't get on the boat. Don't worry too much."
Xu Jincheng seemed to remember something and asked, "How can you be so sure that she went to see Lan Yangqiu?"
The second aunt cried and said: "It's all my fault. I spilled the beans in front of her. I originally wanted to take this opportunity to break up the relationship between them. I didn't expect Qinglan to be so stubborn and ran back privately."
."
Xu Jincheng gave her a complicated look and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything and walked out.
He knew that Xu Qinglan's sister was in love with Lan Yangqiu. When he just returned to China, his second concubine found him and asked him to persuade Xu Qinglan.
Xu Jincheng once found Lan Yangqiu and listened to his opera. After talking with him, he felt that he was a pretty good person, so he didn't care about this matter.
When he was about to leave, he asked someone to ask Lan Yangqiu if he wanted to leave with them, but Lan Yangqiu refused.
Seeing Xu Qinglan's distraught appearance, they even went out of their way to hide it from her. Even Lan Yangqiu wrote a letter to lie to her, saying that he would also leave to find her.
did not expect……
Nuannuan also remembered what she had forgotten, her face suddenly turned pale, and she felt endless self-blame and guilt in her heart.
There are only a few mentions in history that Xu Jincheng's sister Xu Qinglan disappeared. No one was found alive or dead, and the Xu and Su families searched for it for decades, but to no avail.
She sat on the bow of the boat with pale lips, buried her head in her knees, and murmured to herself, "Why? Why do I only remember it every time it happens."
Nuan Nuan is in great pain. Is this the sequelae of time travel, or is history unchangeable, which is why her memory has been blurred, leaving her helplessly watching these people embark on their destined destiny.
Especially when she thought about Xu Qinglan's kindness to her, Nuan Nuan felt very uncomfortable that such a gentle and kind-hearted woman might die unexpectedly. She grabbed the sachet given to her by Xu Qinglan in her right hand and burst into tears.
Nuan Nuan had read some novels about the Republic of China before. After she came to this world inexplicably, she never thought about being the heroine.
She became a beggar, was adopted, and later became a hero who left her name in history. She seemed to have taken a script from Shuangwen, but now she only hates her own powerlessness.
She really wants to do something, but she is just an ordinary person. After being vaguely remembered, she is not even as good as ordinary people in this era.
"Nuan Nuan."
Su Jingheng came over and touched her head: "Don't worry too much, Qinglan will be fine."
Nuannuan gave a muffled hum, and Su Jingheng poured her another glass of water. Seeing her eyes as red as a rabbit, she couldn't help but smile.
"You look so much like my sister. When she was little, she would always look like this when she cried. She would look at me with her eyes glistening. Every time she got angry, she would always argue and say that she would no longer care about Jincheng and me. This is not good.
We talked, but we didn’t last long before we couldn’t help but start talking to each other.”
The three of them had a good relationship when they were young. Every time Su Manman vowed not to pay attention to these two men, they just liked to tease her and make noises in her ears. They often aroused her interest in listening to gossip.
It got stuck again at the critical moment.
She couldn't help but ask further, and when she saw the joking expressions on their faces, she realized that she was talking to them again.
After making her cry, the two of them quickly apologized. At this time, Xu Qinglan would kick them out and stay in the room to comfort Su Manman.
"Brother Su misses Sister Manman?" Nuannuan asked.
"Well, she is my sister, and I will not stop her from doing anything with my thoughts, but I still care about her and worry about her."
"Okay, Nuannuan, go in quickly. I'll go back with Jincheng later. When I come back, I'll bring you a flower from Lin's Incense Shop."
"Then you two should be more careful."
"Okay, got it."
The largest theater building in the city collapsed, and the fire burned all night long. Pedestrians passing by stared at it for two seconds, inevitably let out a sigh, and then left in a hurry.
No one knows what happened last night. They only know that this troupe, which has been rooted in this city for many years, was reduced to ashes overnight.
When Xu Jincheng and Su Jingheng came back, they saw the theater in ruins.
The two stopped passers-by and asked, "Uncle, what happened? Why was this theater burned down?"
The old man stopped, glanced at the theater where sparks were still burning, shook his head and sighed, "Then the Japanese army wanted to listen to the play, and they didn't know what happened, but they were burned down by a fire. After a few hours, the crowd
There were also screams coming from inside, which made everyone feel terrified."
"Come on, the Japanese are coming soon." The man next to him pulled the old man's sleeve.
Xu Jincheng and Su Jingheng asked many people about Xu Qinglan's photo, but no one had seen it, until a girl carrying luggage walked past them, suddenly stopped, walked over and picked up the photo to look at it.
"I've seen this girl."
Chen Qiuling has a very good memory. Although Xu Qinglan's face was dirty at the time, she could still distinguish his facial features.
Hearing the news about Xu Qinglan, Xu Jincheng was delighted: "Where did you see her?"
"In the alley not far from here, she finally left with a man. Judging from the appearance of the two of them, they should be lovers."
