Jiang Zhiqing and Dai Jitao had a very unusual relationship. If others said this in front of him, Dai Jitao had already slapped him. But who is Jiang Zhiqing? The three irons in the folk sayings, they passed by together, carried guns together, and prostitutes together. Jiang and Dai did not leave any of the three, and they became sworn brothers, and their relationship was so good that they almost wore a pair of pants.

After arguing about the restaurant, Dai Jitao sat alone for a long time after Jiang Zhiqing left, and finally left in a daze. However, behind him, he had several tails hanging from afar. This was Jiang Zhiqing's subordinates, who were protecting their old friends on the surface, but in fact they were secretly surveillance.

Early the next morning, as soon as Dai Jitao got up, Jiang Zhiqing came to Liutiao Hutong with four-color gifts. Seeing Jiang Zhiqing coming, Dai Jitao looked a little stiff, but for the sake of his old friend, he still opened the door and invited him into the yard.

When we met again today, Jiang Zhiqing never mentioned yesterday's incident, but just gave Dai Jitao a greeting to her early years as a friend. When he saw the courtyard looking deserted, Jiang Zhiqing enthusiastically invited Dai Jitao to his house for the New Year. Dai Jitao refused, but still couldn't stand Jiang Zhiqing's persuasion and forced him to get up and go with him.

After the counterfeit banknote incident, Jiang Zhiqing made a fortune and bought a courtyard house in the capital where the former Qing officials lived. However, he did not bring his mother, wife and son in his hometown, so although the yard was large, he lived alone except for a few servants.

When he arrived at the place, Jiang Zhiqing warmly welcomed his old friends. Dai Jitao, who was a little restrained, gradually let go of the situation when Jiang Zhiqing did not mention the arguments yesterday. As the sky was getting late, the table of wine and food was served in the house, and the two old friends smiled and talked about sitting together for the New Year.

"Chuoxian, do you still remember what happened to us in Japan?" Jiang Zhiqing asked with a smile after helping Dai Jitao fill his glass of wine.

"Haha, of course I still remember how energetic we lived together to guide the country." After drinking a sip of wine, Dai Jitao nodded with a smile, and every bit of the past flashed through his mind.

"Yes, time is like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, so many days have passed. Chuanxian, it has been more than a year since you and I have not seen each other?"

"It's been almost two years. Since we went to *hai to part...." Dai Jitao's face felt a little embarrassed as soon as he spoke, and shook his head slightly.

Jiang Zhiqing was very considerate and avoided talking about this matter. He casually said something else and walked around it. Seeing his old friend doing this, Dai Jitao felt a little sorry for his old friend and couldn't help feeling ashamed.

"This time I returned to China, have Chuanxian returned to his hometown?"

“Not back yet.”

"I wander around the world. After all, I still have to go home to check it out. By the way, my sister-in-law's health is good? How about the child in my hometown?" Jiang Zhiqing said with concern.

"With Laurie Yuan's concern, she and her children are pretty good. They are all staying in their hometown in Huzhou. We have been together for a long time and always blame me every time we write." Dai Jitao smiled bitterly. Although Dai Jitao is so handsome and eloquent, he has no choice but to treat her, a four-year-old lady, and can even be said to be extremely afraid of her. Dai Jitao looks solemn and strong outside. Who would have thought that at home, she would be as obedient as an angry young wife. He would never dare to go west when his wife asked him to go east. It was common for her to get angry and let Dai Jitao kneel on the washboard to admit his mistake. Since the failure of the Shanghai Mutiny, Dai Jitao fled to Japan and has not returned home for many days. This time he has been staying in Beijing and has not dared to go back to Huzhou. He is afraid of seeing his wife again. If his wife knew that he had returned to China but did not return home, he might have broken his legs with a broom.

"Love is so deep. Hate is so deep." Jiang Zhiqing said this meaningfully, and smiled and said, "Don't talk about Chuanxian, even if you are brothers in Beijing, I rarely go back to my hometown in Zhejiang. In fact, I want to bring my mother, wife and children to Beijing. But they all say that they are used to living in their hometowns and are reluctant to come."

"Zunci, his wife and my nephew are all okay?" Hearing Jiang Zhiqing talk about his family affairs, Dai Jitao asked in a question.

"The blessings of the wise men are all good." Jiang Zhiqing said with a smile. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said, "Wait, and then turned back to the house and took out a few photos.

"This is what my hometown asked someone to bring to you a few days ago. Chuanxian, look at it."

"Oh, it's the old lady and her wife? You need to take a good look." Dai Jitao took the photo with a smile. The first photo was a kind old man and an ordinary country woman. The old man was sitting in a chair and the woman stood aside. Dai Jitao recognized at a glance that it was Jiang Zhiqing's mother and his first wife Mao.

Looking at the photo, he praised the old lady for her very energetic and Jiang Zhiqing was very lucky. Then he looked at the second photo. The second photo was similar to the first one, except that there was a boy of six or seven years old next to Mao. Needless to say, this child was Jiang Zhiqing's eldest son Jianfeng.

"I didn't expect that Jianfeng has grown up so old in the blink of an eye. He is 7 years old this year, right?"

"Yes, I'm 7 years old, Chuanxian has a good memory."

"Haha, of course. I remember that when I went to Fenghua with Ruiyuan a few years ago, I hugged him. Tsk, this kid could hardly recognize him in a flash." Dai Jitao smiled happily.

Putting down these two photos, Dai Jitao continued to look at the third photo. In this third photo, Mao was holding a swaddle baby's face exposed.

"Hey! Is this child..." Dai Jitao was surprised at first when he held the photo, and then smiled and bowed to Jiang Zhiqing to congratulate him: "Congratulations to Brother Ruiyuan, I didn't expect Ruiyuan to have a good son again. When did it happen? How old is this child? It looks like he has only been a few months."

"Haha, it's almost five months old. This photo was taken about ten days ago." Jiang Zhiqing replied with a smile.

"Okay! OK!" Dai Jitao praised the child twice, and kept praising him for being handsome. As he spoke, he still touched his body for a while, as if he wanted to find some gifts for the child, but because he was in a hurry, he couldn't find the right thing for the time being.

Dai Jitao, smiling and smiling, put the photo aside and looked at the next one. When he saw the person in the next one, he was stunned at first, and then became shocked.

"This...isn't this Michiko? How could she be in your hometown? Are you...?"

"Haha, keep watching, keep watching." Jiang Zhiqing smiled without answering.

Dai Jitao looked at the next photo in confusion. This photo was taken by Michiko Tsubuki holding the child just now. Because the photo was taken close, the appearance of adults and children was particularly clear. Dai Jitao stared at the photo for a long time, and his hands suddenly trembled slightly.

"This...this...this...this..."

"Congratulations to Brother Chuanxian, congratulations to Brother Chuanxian!" Jiang Zhiqing laughed and stood up to congratulate Dai Jitao, "Do Chuanxian still remember the incident in Japan back then? Michiko passed on the same journey of the same journey of the same journey of the world, and I love you. Unexpectedly, I secretly formed a family and gave birth to a Lin'er for Chuanxian. Chuanxian, look at how handsome this child looks like you. You don't know yet, after Michiko gave birth to a child, she couldn't find you in Japan, so she brought the child to the country to look for relatives, traveling across the ocean to find her husband, and it's a good story! Chuanxian, you are so lucky! With such a beautiful woman and such a good son, tsk, as a brother, I am really happy for you!"

Dai Jitao's face was not at all happy, but on the contrary, his face turned pale and his expression was extremely frightened.

"No! How is this possible! How is it possible!"

"What's impossible? You didn't see that this child and you were simply carved from the same mold. And you had forgotten the fact that you slept with Michiko back then? Why? Chuanxian, do you want to be Chen Shimi? It's not easy for Michiko to run alone to find her husband, do you want to abandon them, mother and son?"

As Jiang Zhiqing spoke, his tone became stern, looking at Dai Jitao, who was in a state of dismay, and Dai Jitao was sweating protrudingly. He held the photo with a trembling hand and didn't dare to take a look at it again.

"No...this is absolutely not..."

"No? I said Chuanxian, what's wrong with this kind of good thing? Are you worried about your wife's wife? If this is the case, you don't have to be afraid. I will explain it to my sister-in-law."

"No, no, no!" When Jiang Zhiqing said this, Dai Jitao was even more panicked. He grabbed Jiang Zhiqing in a hurry and begged: "Ruiyuan, my brother Ruiyuan, you must not let your sister-in-law know about this, otherwise she would have to peel my skin. Please Ruiyuan, you also know my wife's power. I can't restore my relationship with Michiko no matter what. This child cannot recognize him. Ruiyuan, my good brother, even if I beg you, you can help me take in their mother and son. As long as I help me, I can do it in the future."

"How did this happen! Michiko is your woman, this child is your son!"

"If you don't succeed, you will succeed! Ruiyuan, you can't stand by death and refuse to save him?" Dai Jitao was scared and begged, begging, almost kneeling down at Jiang Zhiqing.

"This... let me think about it...think about it..." Jiang Zhiqing hesitated for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Ruiyuan..." Dai Jitao shouted in a crying voice.

"Oh! OK OK, for your sake, I can hide this for you, I will adopt this child for the time being." It seemed that after a fierce ideological struggle, Jiang Zhiqing finally said this.

Immediately, Dai Jitao was ecstatic and kept thanking Jiang Zhiqing for his help. He even patted his chest and said that as long as Jiang Zhiqing's affairs were done, he would go through fire and water.

"Haha, it's all brothers, so let's forget about this. But Chuanxian, you still have to listen to what I persuaded yesterday. Following Sun Wen is a dead end. As a brother, I don't want you to have a good end. Your wife and children will have a difficult time in the future and will be scolded by thousands of people!"

"I..." Dai Jitao opened his mouth, his expression was extremely complicated. He sat silently without saying a word, and Jiang Zhiqing did not urge him, and sat quietly aside.

After a long time, Dai Jitao picked up the wine cup on the table and drank it in one gulp. After putting it down, he said depressedly: "It's all that matters now. I... let's follow Brother Ruiyuan's arrangement."

"Okay! This is a good brother! It means that brothers work together and lose their gold! Good! Good!" Jiang Zhiqing was overjoyed and patted Dai Jitao on the shoulder, while Dai Jitao sat in a daze, and suddenly pounced on the table and burst into tears.
