Chapter 32: Cinderella


Seeing Lin Wenjing coming out, Chen Zikun quickly cheered up and said, "Miss Lin, do you want a car?"

"Shhh."

When Lin Wenjing saw that it was Chen Zikun, her face suddenly lit up with joy.

She made a gesture of silence, ran over in small steps, jumped into the car and said, "Hurry up, hurry up."

Without saying a word, Chen Zikun spread his long legs and pulled the car and whizzed out of the alley.

Lin Wenjing covered her heart and said with lingering fear: "It was so thrilling, I almost got seen by Uncle Zhang."

"Miss, did you run away from home or something?"

Chen Zikun asked as he ran.

"Hehe, uncle, you are really good at joking.

Aunt Mi took Auntie to a card game.

Daddy has a dinner party, so I am the only one left at home.

Wang Yueqi and I made an appointment to go see stilt walkers today.

By the way, uncle , Is your business okay?”

"It's very good.

I don't have to worry about food and clothing.

Miss, why did you think of asking this?"

"Aunt Mi fired you because you took us out to play.

I've always wanted to say sorry to you."

"Haha, it's okay."

Wang Yueqi's home was just two streets away.

Soon after arriving at Wang's house, Lin Wenjing got out of the driveway: "Uncle, can you wait for me for a while?"

"no problem."

"Thank you."

Lin Wenjing jumped into Wang's house, and came out with Wang Yueqi less than ten minutes later.

Wang Yueqi saw Chen Zikun without any surprise, but she was just confused: "Your family has bought a new car. ” Lin Wenjing didn't say anything, so she got into the car with her and headed to the Big Bell Temple.

Every first day of the first lunar month was the opening day of the Big Bell Temple Fair, with opera singers, jugglers, stilt walkers, and all kinds of other people.

Cheap and delicious snacks, literally everything.

After arriving at the place, Wang Yueqi gave Chen Zikun two eldest sons and took Lin Wenjing to play.

Chen Zikun gave the two eldest sons to the old man setting up a tea stall on the roadside: "Old man, look after the car for me, thank you. you."

After setting up the car, he followed the two girls.

The temple fair was crowded with people, including local gangsters and gangsters.

Naturally, the two young girls were quickly targeted, and the two rogues were obsessed with sex.

Looking at Lin Wenjing's slender back in fascination, she wiped the saliva from her mouth and followed her.

The gangster's actions could not be hidden from Chen Zikun's sharp eyes.

He stepped forward quickly, grabbed a gangster's arm and pulled it downwards, causing it to dislocate immediately.

He screamed in pain, and big beads of sweat dripped down.

His accomplices were at a loss what to do.

How could he bother stalking a beautiful woman.

Hearing the screams from behind, Lin Wenjing turned around and looked around.

Wang Yueqi said calmly: "It's okay.

Maybe I stepped on someone's toes.

By the way, there will be a fireworks party at the Six Nations Hotel tomorrow.

Are you going?"

"What, I don't know."

Lin Wenjing was stunned.

"You must go.

Celebrities from all over Beijing will be there.

This will be the grandest fireworks show in 1919.

In order to celebrate the victory in the European War and the Chinese New Year, every guest is dressed in costumes and dances under the fireworks in full bloom.

It's just like a fairy tale."

Wang Yueqi narrowed her eyes and looked intoxicated.

"Oh" Lin Wenjing could only respond obediently.

During this period of time, she had been locked up at home to reflect, so how could she know what was happening outside.

"I have inquired, and officials above the deputy minister level will receive invitations.

However, officials in the Duan Cabinet are more pro-Japanese and would rather stay in the house playing mahjong than join in the fun, so the invitations are easy to get.

I have asked Xu The senior helped me do it.”

"Can you get one for me?"

Lin Wenjing said eagerly.

Wang Yueqi hesitated for a moment, then agreed: "Okay, I'll think of a way, but I can't guarantee it."

Chen Zikun hid not far away and eavesdropped on their conversation clearly.

The two girls strolled around the temple fair for a while and had a great time.

When they were about to go home, Chen Zikun appeared in time with a foreign cart.

"You two ladies, go back."

"You came just in time.

Send me to the Shuncheng County Prince's Mansion first, and then send you ladies home."

Wang Yueqi said this with a sense of pride.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there were few cars and horses on the streets.

Chen Zikun threw off his legs and ran all the way to the prince's palace.

His appearance was really impressive.

The three-bay gate has three bays on the left and right, forming a main entrance that connects nine rooms.

It is magnificent.

The two stone lions at the door are even more ferocious and majestic.

But the most impressive thing is the eight guards standing on both sides of the door.

Yi Shui's blue-gray military uniform, leather bullets and box cannons, and his waist straight.

A large open space in front of the palace was filled with cars, horse-drawn carriages, and foreign carriages.

A row of coachmen squatted in the sun against the wall.

Needless to say, the owners of these cars came to pay New Year's greetings to the high-ranking officials who lived here.

The person living in the Shuncheng County Prince's Mansion was not a prince from the former Qing Dynasty, but General Xu Shuzhen, the popular deputy minister of the Ministry of War of the Beiyang Government.

Xu Tingge was his nephew, and Wang Yueqi came to see Senior Xu.

"I'll be fine here, Lin Wenjing, you go back first."

Wang Yueqi got out of the car and said goodbye to Lin Wenjing.

"Well, goodbye.

If you have any good news, please notify me immediately."

Lin Wenjing drove away in a foreign car.

Wang Yueqi then came to the door of the Xu Mansion and asked people to tell them that they were looking for Master Xu.

When the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion saw that it was a female college student who came to see his young nephew, he did not hesitate to report it.

Soon Xu Tingge came out to greet him and invited Wang Yueqi in.

As he walked, he asked, "Hey, where is that female classmate who is inseparable from you?"

"You said Lin Wenjing, something is wrong with her."

Wang Yueqi said.

"Oh, what's the matter with you?

Wang Yueqi."

Xu Tingge was a little distracted.

"Senior Xu, there is a fireworks party going on at the Six Nations Hotel.

Lin Wenjing and I both want to go.

Can you help us find two invitations?"

Wang Yueqi said.

"This is difficult.

Several of my uncle's concubines want to go.

The invitations are not enough, but there are some tickets to watch the fireworks."

Xu Tingge said and took out two tickets.

"With this, you can enter Dongjiaomin Lane.

Except that you can't enter the restaurant and dance hall of the Liuguo Hotel, it's almost the same as the invitation."

Wang Yueqi accepted the ticket and said, "Thank you, senior, I'm leaving."

"You're leaving without drinking tea.

Wait, it's hard to call a taxi now.

I'll ask Xu Er to take you off."

Xu Tingge stopped a servant and asked him to call Xu Er over and take Wang Yueqi home in his car.

Xu Er was working in the concierge studying a junior primary school textbook.

When he heard the young master's greeting, he quickly pulled the car to send Miss Wang away.

Wang Yueqi did not go home directly, but went to Lin Zhai first.

At this time, Lin Wenjing had returned home.

Fortunately, neither Aunt Mi nor her father came back, so no one noticed that she had sneaked out to play.

When she saw Wang Yueqi coming so quickly, she suddenly expressed joy: "So soon.

Just got the invitation.”

"It can't be that easy.

The dignitaries can't even grab it.

They can't even get tickets to watch the fireworks."

Wang Yueqi sighed.

"Oh, it's nothing."

Lin Wenjing comforted Wang Yueqi instead.

After chatting for a while, Wang Yueqi said goodbye and left.

Lin Wenjing sat at the table, opened the chicken heart box on her necklace, looked at her mother's photo and murmured: "Mom, I really want to see the fireworks."

In the evening, Xiao Shunzi returned to Ziguang Depot after get off work.

He was about to go back to his room to sleep when he saw Chen Zikun sitting on the master's chair in the main room and waving to him.

"Da Kunzi, what's the matter?"

Xiao Shunzi hurried over and asked.

"Close the door."

Chen Zikun said seriously.

Xiao Shunzi quickly closed the door, pulled up a chair and sat down, and said cautiously: "Da Kunzi, what are you doing?

Don't scare me."

"Yao Ting, are we good brothers?"

Xiao Shunzi also became serious: "We have a life-long friendship."

"Okay, now I have something that only you can help with.

Do you want to help or not?"

Xiao Shunzi's heart was in turmoil.

Da Kunzi was so serious.

Could it be that he had caused a life-threatening lawsuit outside and needed to find someone to convict him?

"Da Kunzi, I am willing to help you, so I will entrust you to take care of my sister."

Xiao Shunzi said sadly.

Chen Zikun was confused by him: "What are you talking about?

I just want to get you two invitations to the fireworks show at the Six Nations Hotel."

Xiao Shunzi let out a long breath: "I was almost scared to death by you, I thought you were."

But then he thought again, and his face became long again: "Da Kunzi, my good brother, it's more difficult for you than to kill me.

This banquet was hosted by the envoys of various countries at the Liuguo Hotel, and they were invited Either a diplomatic envoy or a high-ranking official, I am just a waiter in a hotel cloakroom, and you can’t get an invitation if you skin me alive.”

Chen Zikun pondered for a moment and felt that Xiao Shunzi's words made sense and that he was a little embarrassed.

Xiao Shunzi rolled his eyes and said, "Are you confused?

I was talking about tickets for watching the fireworks yesterday, not invitations.

If you want tickets, I can get one or two."

Chen Zikun said: "The tickets are fine too, I want them now."

Sure enough, Xiao Shunzi took out an admission ticket from his arms and said, "I'll give this to you first.

Actually, you don't need a ticket.

My buddy is guarding the door.

He can bring you in when the time comes."

"You're doing well."

Chen Zikun boasted casually.

But Xiao Shunzi was beaming: "Of course, I have sharp eyes and a sweet mouth.

Who doesn't like me?

The doorman is my little brother.

The eldest sister in the laundry room is ogling me all day long.

It’s even more trivial to order leftover food and wine.”

"Haha, not bad."

Chen Zikun praised him again meaningfully.

Early the next morning, Lin Wenjing woke up from her sleep.

When she was sitting at the table combing her hair, she suddenly saw a pink note on the table.

She picked it up and looked at it.

It was a ticket to the fireworks show at the Six Nations Hotel.

"Mom, did you hear your daughter's prayer?"

Lin Wenjing opened the heart box on her necklace again and cried happily at her mother's photo.

After getting the ticket, I had to ask for leave from my father.

After dressing up, I walked carefully to the main room.

The family sat at the table to have breakfast.

My wife said that there was a card game in the evening.

She wanted to play eight rounds with Mrs.

Zhang, Mrs.

Li and the others.

On the father's side While reading the newspaper and eating, he said casually: "Don't come back too late.

I also have a party in the evening.

Mother Lin, just be the lady alone while you cook."

Then he said to his daughter: "You are not allowed to go anywhere at night.

Just study at home and study.

If you don't get into Peking University, you will be the only one to ask."

Lin Wenjing didn't dare to mention it now, and immersed herself in eating.

After eating, she went back to tidy up her clothes quietly.

She only had two winter coats, one blue and one white.

After thinking about it, she decided to wear the indane blue one.

Wear a long white scarf for the best effect.

He took his leather shoes out from under the bed, wiped them carefully with a fine cloth, poured another glass of water, dipped his comb in the water and combed his hair.

Finally, he took out his wallet and counted his belongings.

He got two cents as pocket money every month. , I have been saving for half a year, which is more than one yuan.

Finally, in the afternoon, my wife took Wen Long to the card game, and my husband also went to drink with his colleagues.

Lin Wenjing dressed neatly, took the ticket and quietly slipped out of the house.

When she saw a familiar figure at the entrance of the alley, she immediately He said happily: "Uncle, hurry up and go to the Six Nations Hotel."

"Okay."

Chen Zikun pulled up the car and left.

Today he is still wearing a smart bunt, wearing a green cotton-padded jacket, crotch-crotch trousers, leg straps, an old cotton hat on his head, and a pair of leather-toed shoes.

Pulling the cart and walking quickly on the street, everyone praised him for being so nimble.

When we came to Dongjiaomin Lane, the embassy area was particularly lively today.

There were lights and colorful decorations everywhere.

Foreigners followed the local customs and celebrated the New Year according to Chinese rules.

The patrolling foreign soldiers also wore powerful uniforms, their leather boots and bayonets were polished.

There were well-dressed people everywhere.

Chinese and foreign guests were full of laughter and laughter.

Lin Wenjing got out of the car, gave Chen Zikun a penny, and went happily with the ticket.

Chen Zikun put away the foreign car and entered the Six Nations Hotel through the side door.

A Chinese guard stopped him: "What are you doing?"

"Brother, I am Li Yaoting's eldest brother."

Chen Zikun said with a smile, and handed over a cigarette to San Pao Tai.

"Brother, wait a minute, I'll ask him to come over."

The guard immediately became friendly and found Xiao Shunzi in no time.

Chen Zikun pulled Xiao Shunzi aside and whispered a few words.

Xiao Shunzi's expression changed: "Brother, you are just giving me a problem
