Rebirth of the Flying Era

Du Fei listened to Zhou Sheng's words, not sure whether the other party was sincere or testing.

Because Zhou Zhennan's attitude has always been very vague.

Du Fei took a deep breath and rubbed the white porcelain wine cup with his hand: "Brother Zhou, what do you mean, your family wants you to go out?"

Zhou Sheng nodded, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes. Although it passed briefly, Du Fei saw it.

In fact, this is inevitable, not to mention that Li Yuanchao and Lin Tiansheng went out one after another and created a huge situation.

But when they left, there was nothing they could do. Now Zhou Sheng is not in that situation.

There are three brothers and sisters in their family. Zhou Xiaobai is a girl. His eldest brother is doing well in the army. He is also the eldest son and has greater responsibilities.

If we go outside to lay out the plan, Zhou Sheng can only go there.

Zhou Sheng had to give up everything he had worked hard for at home, and it was inevitable that he would be unhappy.

But there is no other way. Someone always has to make sacrifices for the sake of the family, but this time it fell on him.

Zhou Sheng didn't have much resentment. He was born in a military family. Since he was a child, he knew clearly that someone must sacrifice for victory.

You won’t ask the question ‘Why me?’.

Many people who participated in the Ge Ming Campaign with Zhou Zhennan died, so why should those people be killed?

Zhou Sheng instantly put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind and said in a deep voice: "Yes, I invited you here today just to ask you, are you going to Danbei or Nanyang?"

Zhou Sheng is very good at timing and opening the skylight at the right time to speak out.

Du Fei thought for a while and said: "Brother Zhou, if you ask this, I will explain it to you, but it is just a small talk between us brothers. If you go out and say it, I will not recognize it."

In fact, Du Fei's words were of no use. Zhou Sheng really wanted to shake things off, and nothing he could say could stop him.

But Du Fei had to say what needed to be said, and continued: "Actually, your question is not difficult to answer. The reason why you are hesitant is that, to put it bluntly, you still don't know the specific situation on both sides."

Zhou Sheng nodded in acquiescence.

Du Fei continued: "If you are a close relative, you should definitely go to Nanyang. After all, you and Brother Lin... right~ But now there is a situation in the southwest. If you go to Li Yuanchao, you should be able to follow along. Dividends, this is the dilemma, isn’t it?”

Speaking of this, Zhou Sheng had nothing to hide.

Du Yu had some time to rest and breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let me tell you, Brother Zhou, you think too much."

"Oh?" Zhou Sheng raised his eyebrows and said, "How do you say this?"

Du Fei said: "I have just been to Li Yuanchao this time. His place has already formed a system. There are the Li family's clan members, the elders who followed back then, and the local forces who have allied themselves with each other. These three parties can be regarded as Li Yuanchao's basic base. "As he spoke, he looked deeply at Zhou Sheng: "If outsiders want to get in and form a fourth party, I can't say it's impossible, I can only say it's quite difficult."

Obviously, the Zhou family sent their direct descendants there, not just for the sake of making soy sauce.

No matter where he goes, Zhou Sheng must be in his own way, otherwise there will be no point in him going out.

Sure enough, Zhou Sheng frowned after hearing what Du Fei said about the situation at Li Yuanchao.

Du Fei continued: "So, Brother Zhou, although Shan Bei looks like there are peaches, you are too late and can't eat them. It's better to go directly to Brother Lin. His foundation is still too weak and the situation is more complicated." Nowadays, apart from the main family who has gone to China, only the Nanyang Lin family can use it to contain each other and form a balance with the original guerrillas and people from Northern Gaoli. It is the time for him to employ people, and you have to go now, which is a timely help. "

Zhou Sheng nodded, thinking to himself that it was indeed right to come to Du Fei today.

Du Fei's analysis is second, the most important thing is his first-hand information.

Zhou Sheng took the initiative to bow to Du Fei, raised his glass and said, "Brother, thank you very much!"

Du Fei laughed and drank it all in one gulp. Today's dinner was almost over.

After coming out of the guest house, Zhou Sheng arranged for Du Fei to be sent home.

It's not far from the government compound where Du Fei lives. It's only a short ride away.

Zhou Sheng turned around and walked home.

In the two-story building of the Zhou family, Zhou Zhennan, his wife and Zhou Xiaobai were waiting in the living room.

Zhou Zhennan read the newspaper page by page with his legs crossed.

Zhou's mother was knitting a sweater, while Zhou Xiaobai stretched his neck and kept looking at the door.

When he saw Zhou Sheng push the door open and come in, he immediately stood up and said: "Second brother is back, second brother is back!"

Zhou Zhennan put down the newspaper, and Zhou's mother also put down the knitting needles in her hand.

"Dad, Mom~" Zhou Sheng called into the room, his face turned red after just drinking.

Zhou Zhennan said "hmm" and asked directly: "What did Du Fei say?"

Zhou Sheng sat on the sofa, suppressed his drunkenness, and with a serious look on his face, he recounted the situation of his meeting with Du Fei just now.

Finally, he said: "Dad, this is probably the situation. According to Du Fei, a stable tripartite faction has formed around Li Yuanchao. Now that we are developing in the past, the resources we can obtain are limited, and we will be targeted..."

Zhou Zhennan listened silently and was not in a hurry to express his position.

Zhou Xiaobai was surprised and interrupted: "Second brother, you... you want to go abroad!"

Zhou Sheng glanced at her and signaled to be silent.

Zhou Zhennan leaned on the back of the sofa and sighed: "The Li family's movements are really fast! Letting Li Yuanchao out at the beginning was really a wonderful move~"

Zhou Sheng did not make any comments, but instead asked: "Dad, what do you think...what's our next step?"

Zhou Zhennan said: "Forget it, just follow what Du Fei said, you go to Nanyang to find Lin Tiansheng~"

Zhou Sheng frowned slightly, hearing the reluctance in his father's tone. He opened his mouth but stopped talking.

But in the end he didn't say much, nodded and said: "Okay father, then I'll go upstairs."

Zhou Zhennan responded: "Go ahead and get ready. We'll leave in a few days."

Zhou Xiaobai on the side was surprised, he didn't expect it to be so urgent.

Noticing that her father's expression was serious, she didn't dare to say anything and quickly followed Zhou Sheng upstairs.

The Zhou family was left alone on the first floor.

Mother Zhou knew the specific situation and whispered: "Zhennan, how about... I go talk to Sister Jiang?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhennan immediately said sternly: "Don't mess around!"

Mother Zhou frowned, her husband's attitude made her uncomfortable, but she also knew the current situation, so she tolerated it and said nothing more.

Zhou Zhennan realized that his tone was bad and took a long breath.

He reached out and patted the back of his wife's hand and explained, "She won't help us with this matter."

Mother Zhou frowned: "Is it so serious?"

Zhou Zhennan said: "What do you think? Why don't I want my second son to go to Nanyang? I just want to get out of the whirlpool..."

Mother Zhou's face changed slightly: "You mean...this also involves things in the future?"

Zhou Zhennan said: "That's why I said it's useless to look for her~ She is eager to put our second child next to Lin Tiansheng."

…

On the other side, Du Fei returned home.

He has a good physique and metabolizes alcohol quickly. In addition, Zhou Sheng and he didn't drink too much at night. They drank more than three taels each. When he came out of the guest house, he was blown by the wind and sobered up.

I looked at the time and it was not yet seven o'clock.

Father Zhu didn't come back, and Mother Zhu was listening to the radio alone with little Zhengze.

Du Fei took the child and played with it for a while, then sent the child to Zhu's mother's house at almost half past seven.

"Are you going out at night?" Zhu's mother took her grandson and asked.

Normally she rarely asked about Du Fei's work, but tonight she asked him casually.

Du Fei said: "Go to my Uncle Chu's house to have a look. I haven't been there for a long time."

Since Du Fei and Zhu Ting had a child, although Zhu's mother no longer works, there is no shortage of news in the compound.

I immediately understood that it must be related to Minister Xie’s cancer.

In the current situation, if Lao Xie really fails, the most likely person to take over is Chu Hongjun.

Zhu Ma reminded: "Don't go empty-handed. Go to the small warehouse and get two bottles of wine to take with you."

"Mom, I understand." Du Fei agreed.

Zhu’s mother asked again: “Will you be back in the evening?”

Du Fei thought for a while and said, "Chu Cheng and I haven't seen each other for a long time. We just want to have a chat tonight."

Zhu's mother responded: "It's okay to keep in touch, but don't make the relationship difficult."

According to Zhu's mother, Du Fei picked up two bottles of wine from the small warehouse and rode a bicycle straight to Chu's house.

Although I felt that I was already over the influence of alcohol, I had just drank and did not drive after all.

Besides, it's not far from Ben. Du Fei will be there in a short while on his bicycle.

After setting up the car ladder, he entered the house with ease and said loudly: "Aunt Wang? Aunt Wang~"

Director Wang heard the noise and knew who it was without looking. He said angrily: "You brat, what are you yelling about?"

Du Fei said hey: "I don't miss you anymore, come here to see you."

In the living room, Director Wang is teaching his daughter-in-law to knit a sweater.

After not seeing each other for several months, Zhou Xiaoli looks more and more prosperous.

The last time Chu Cheng and Du Fei met, they mentioned that Zhou Xiaoli was pregnant with their second child. Counting the days and months, it was already quite a long time.

Director Wang curled his lips: "You come over to watch me carry two bottles of wine?"

Although Director Wang can drink, he rarely drinks.

Du Fei was well prepared and took out the gifts he had purchased in Xiangjiang.

Then he asked, "Where are my uncle and Chu Cheng?"

After he finished speaking, Chu Hongjun's study door opened, and Chu Cheng came out.

This guy is still the same as before. When he saw Du Fei, he immediately laughed: "Hey~ I sounded just like you in there. It's not easy to see you now. Why do you have free time today?"

Du Fei immediately retorted, and the two exchanged a few words. The feeling of alienation caused by not seeing each other for a long time quickly disappeared.

Then Chu Hongjun came out of the study and said, "Xiao Fei is here."

Du Fei said hello with a smile, and then the others sat down on the sofa.

First they told each other about the situation, and then Du Fei didn't hide anything and said directly: "Uncle Chu, I heard from Minister Xie... do you have a chance this time?"

Speaking of this, Chu Hongjun had known about Minister Xie's physical condition for a long time, and he was also one of the first people to know.

But he showed a hint of helplessness, shook his head and said: "Lao Xie talked to me and said that he could recommend me to take over his class, but I refused."

Du Fei was stunned for a moment, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he came to Chu Hongjun in a hurry today because he was worried that once Minister Xie failed, Chu Hongjun would take over.

That's not a good thing.

As the saying goes, misfortunes lie on the back of blessings, and blessings lie on the backs of misfortunes.

Nowadays, Dad Zhu is booming and its momentum is getting stronger and stronger.

Originally, three families formed an alliance to protect themselves, the Zhu family, the Xiao family, and the Chu family.

The Xiao family retreated to Lu Province, where they were less conspicuous.

The Chu family, because Chu Hongjun was only a deputy, was also inconspicuous.

It makes the small group led by the Zhu family look less eye-catching.

However, once Minister Xie retired due to illness and Chu Hongjun took over, the situation completely changed.

At this time, there are still hundreds of thousands of wj.

If it really comes to Chu Hongjun’s hands, and with Zhu’s father’s current momentum, what kind of concept is that!

Du Fei could foresee this situation, and Dad Zhu and Chu Hongjun were also keenly aware of it.

And made the decision quite calmly.

Du Fei swallowed, and the words of persuasion he had prepared were of no use, so he took the opportunity to use Zhou Sheng as an excuse to change the subject.

Sure enough, Director Wang and Chu Hongjun were both surprised: "The second child of the Zhou family is going out too?"

Chu Hongjun frowned slightly and asked, "Does your father know about this?"

Du Fei shook his head: "I just came home, and my dad didn't come back. I haven't had time to say anything yet."

Chu Hongjun pursed his lips slightly and sighed again: "Everyone can't sit still even before we do anything."

Du Fei didn't answer, but Chu Cheng frowned and suddenly said: "Dad, how about I..."

Just now he heard Du Fei say that the second son of the Zhou family was going to Nanyang, so he couldn't help but think of his own situation.

Besides, now that Chu Cheng is also a father, he naturally has to take on some responsibilities.

Zhou Xiaoli's face changed slightly, but she kept silent.

Speaking of which, Zhou Sheng was still her cousin, but she didn't know anything about going to Nanyang.

Chu Hongjun said in a deep voice: "What are you messing with! Do you think he, Zhou Zhennan, is willing to let his son out? He has no choice, he is involved with both parties, and he can't afford to offend anyone." At this point, he looked at Du again. Fei: "The situation in our family is different. With you, Uncle Zhu, and Xiao Fei here, no matter who it is, we will be used in the end."

Chu Cheng blinked his eyes, seeming to understand.

Chu Hongjun didn't explain any more, letting him taste it slowly by himself, and said to Du Fei: "Xiao Fei, you came here overnight today, are you afraid that I can't help it and accept Lao Xie's sugar-coated bullets?"

Du Fei hesitated and scratched the back of his head.

Chu Hongjun snorted: "You kid, you underestimate me too much. That minister will be mine sooner or later, but not now."

Du Fei chuckled and said, "Uncle Chu, I am also concerned about chaos, and caring about chaos."

Chu Hongjun said: "You talk to Xiao Cheng, I still have some work to do."

Du Fei stood up and responded, watching Chu Hongjun return to the study.

Director Wang called Zhou Xiaoli and was also going to take a rest upstairs.

But Chu Cheng stopped him: "Mom, you and Xiaoli stay here and watch TV, while Du Fei and I go outside."

As soon as Director Wang thought about it, Zhou Xiaoli warned, "Don't be too late."

It was a bit cold at night in late April.

When the two of them went outside, Du Fei looked at Chu Cheng: "Where are you going?"

Chu Cheng took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one to Du Fei: "I'm taking you to a nice place. Why are you here? Are you driving?"

Du Fei took a sip and said, "No, let's not talk about it just now. I had a few drinks with Zhou Sheng in the evening. Don't drive when you drink, and don't drink when you drive."

Chu Cheng curled his lips. He knew Du Fei's taste: "Those two and a half wines are nothing to you."

Du Fei smiled.

Chu Cheng took the bicycle, and the two of them walked eastward along Fuxing Road in the darkness, and arrived at a place more than ten minutes later.
