It was already twelve o'clock when Wang Li returned home. She looked around Yipinxuan but didn't find anything special.
After lying down for a while, I felt a little hungry. I didn't eat dinner and drank a lot of wine. I went to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat.
As soon as she opened the kitchen door, she saw a gun pointed at her forehead, which scared Wang Li. Who is this? What are they doing?
"Don't move, put your hands up!"
"Don't shout, or I'll shoot!"
Wang Li was startled, but then she thought that this was her own home and she had her own space, so what was there to be afraid of? She asked, "Who are you and why are you in my house?"
The man saw that the woman opposite him was quite calm, so he put down his gun and said, "I'm not a bad person, I just want to hide in your house for a while."
Wang Li looked at his attire and estimated that he was a member of the Red Party. After having more contact with the Red Party members, she could always sense a fearless spirit from them.
I don't know if my guess is right, and I don't know who he is. The one being chased must be a Red Party member. In the Kuomintang's territory, it can't be the Kuomintang himself.
It could also be a gangster. Shanghai is a mixed bag now, with all kinds of people. You can't trust others easily.
"You have to leave early. If others see you, it will bring trouble to my family. Besides, there is a Kuomintang member living in my house, which will be bad for you."
The man said, "I don't think you are a bad guy. I was shot in the leg and back."
Wang Li wondered what to do. If the Wang family saw him, they would definitely arrest him. He couldn't leave now. What should he do?
Before she could think of a solution, footsteps and shouting were heard in the alley.
"Block the entrance to the alley. Not even a mosquito can get out. It's too fast to run."
Wang Li was afraid that Wang's family would come out and see him, so she patted him on the shoulder and put him away.
After looking around the ground and finding nothing, he pretended to have just woken up and walked into the kitchen, saying, "These people didn't even leave me any food. I'm starving."
If someone were to find someone from their home, it would be difficult for the Wang family, and the national army would also suspect their family.
Wang Li was thinking about the situation. Sanniu's wife came into the kitchen and asked, "Sister, are you hungry? I thought you were going to eat outside when you didn't come back tonight, so I didn't cook. If you want to eat, I'll cook for you now. What's that noise outside? What's going on?"
"Don't worry about it. Let's check our house first. Make me some soup. I'm hungry."
(From now on, Liu Jiayu will be called Sanniu's wife, as they are married)
After Wang Li finished her meal and chatted with Sanniu's wife for a while, someone knocked on Wang Li's door. Wang Li thought to herself, this is really troublesome. No matter whether it is the Red Party or the National Army, they call and knock on the door every day. To be honest, it is the same most of the time. No matter who sits in that position, it has nothing to do with ordinary people.
"Open the door, open the door, are all the people dead?"
"Pa pa pa"
“Knock, knock… knock, knock…”
“Bang bang… bang bang…”
"Open the door... Open the door..."
At this time Liu Wangjia also got up, came out to open the door, and said as he walked: "I'm calling for souls. Knock, knock, knock... If you break my door, I will not forgive you." As he said this, he opened the door.
Family members have also gotten up one after another. Such things happen every day in Shanghai now. Even if you are unhappy, you have to cooperate with them. After all, you are a young man!
"Is your family here? Come stand over and take a look."
"What are you looking at? There are only a few of us in my family. Don't stare. I am the captain of the Second Division of the Military Control Commission, Liu Wangjia. How could there be a Red Party member hiding in my family? Open your eyes and look."
Liu Wangjia was so angry. He was making love with his wife, and was interrupted at the critical moment. How could he not be angry?
