As Wei Ran spoke, he reached out to open the wine cabinet in the corner of the banquet hall, took a goblet from it, poured half a glass of wine and handed it to Mei Xiang, instructing her to make a lazy pose.

"Since I saved it for my cousin, don't expect me to give this money to you." Mei Xiang responded jokingly and let Wei Ran take a second photo of her.

Wei Ran naturally had his own plans for taking photos of this beautiful owner. After all, he couldn't just ask for a group photo of everyone, and it was a group photo of no less than five people.

If he wants to achieve this goal, he must first produce some photography results and establish a persona who likes taking photos so that it will not appear abrupt and arouse suspicion - after all, this is related to the Anti-Japanese Killing Group, so he cannot be careless.

There is no reason why Miss Meixiang is not cautious.

I picked a few rooms on the second floor and took a few photos for "Cousin Meixiang". By the way, I was able to record the decoration of the rooms on this floor. Wei Ran took the initiative and suggested, "While the light is good, why don't you change your clothes and take more photos?"

How many pictures? I bought a lot of film at noon."

"Wait for me here"

Meixiang did not refuse, and asked Qiushi, who had been watching the excitement just now, to make tea for Weiran, while she climbed the stairs to the third floor.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Would you like to take some pictures for you?" Wei Ran asked the little girl Qiushi.

"I'll forget it." Qiushi made Wei Ran tea while rejecting his proposal. However, there was not much rejection in her tone, but rather shyness took up most of it.

The little girl was shy, so Wei Ran didn't insist, but changed the subject and asked, "Young lady usually lives alone on the third floor?"

"Most of the time, my lady and I live on the third floor."

Qiushi said, pointing to a room next to her that was just above Tao Canhua, "That room is mine too. Sometimes when the lady is in a bad mood and wants to be alone, I will live on the second floor with Sister Jasmine and Mama Yang.

"

"Did Miss teach Jasmine the piano?" Wei Ran asked nonchalantly.

"Can't"

Qiushi nodded, poured herself a cup of tea, and said with envy, "Sister Moli can also drive. It was all taught by the lady over the years. Now the lady is taking sister Moli to learn English with Mr. Feng.

"

"Is it Miss's request that you practice in the practice room?"

"Miss has always wanted to create her own theater troupe."

Qiushi glanced at the stairs, lowered her voice and said, "You know the Rongchun Club opened by Shang Xiaoyun, a famous actor in Peking last year, right?"

"I know, what next?"

Wei Ran followed the topic and asked, how did he know about Rongchun Society, but now was obviously not the time to ask the other party to explain this.

"Last year, Miss also wanted to go to Rongchun Club to learn singing, but she was too old and they didn't want her."

Qiushi lowered her voice and said with some sympathy, "She just wanted me to study on my own for two years, and then send me to Rongchun Society to study opera. After I finish my studies, I would start a small opera troupe. I guess, that Tao Canhua

He probably has the same fate as me."

"Do you want to learn it yourself?"

"Of course I do!"

Qiushi poured her a cup of tea and said with some admiration, "Miss said, women can't live by men, they have to develop their own abilities and live by their own abilities."

Wei Ran sighed secretly, and when Wei Ran was about to say something, Mei Xiang's voice calling Qiushi also came from upstairs.

Seeing this, Qiushi immediately put down the small tea cup she had just filled with water, responded with a crisp voice, and ran upstairs in a hurry.

Wei Ran didn't wait long, and Mei Xiang, who had changed into a dress, also walked downstairs.

There is no doubt that no matter in later generations or in the Republic of China, after solving problems such as food and clothing, no girl can refuse to take photos to record her appearance - especially the more beautiful girls.

In the next half of the afternoon, Wei Ran also became a personal photographer after taking up the roles of bodyguard and cousin, taking photos of different styles for Mei Xiang who was happily changing her clothes.

Even taking the opportunity to take pictures, Wei Ran even climbed to the third floor, which the little girl Qiushi said "no man has ever been to."

Except for the only two bedrooms, a study room, a dressing room, a bathroom and a small living room on the third floor, more than half of the remaining area is reserved for a terrace filled with various potted flowers.

On this terrace, there are even two large blue and white porcelain tanks with a diameter of more than one meter. They are like the large water tank downstairs in the northwest corner against the courtyard wall. They have goldfish and water lilies. One of the tanks has goldfish and water lilies.

There is also an enamel water bottle hanging on the edge.

“This bungalow is so beautiful”

Wei Ran, who was holding a cigarette in his mouth, took a photo of Mei Xiang wearing a French dress and brought the topic to this house.

Meixiang, who was sitting on the deck chair on the terrace, seemed to have no intention of hiding anything from her cheap cousin. She posed and explained, "This house was built by a British missionary before. The missionary was a man of cruelty. Although he

On the surface, a cement factory was built, but secretly it not only sold cigarettes, but also secretly imprisoned several kidnapped prostitutes here.

Fortunately, because the missionary committed other crimes, he was caught and killed by Marshal Zhang who was stationed at the security guard, and the house was also assigned to the name of one of the Marshal's adjutants."

"Then what?" Wei Ran asked while taking another photo of his beautiful cousin.

"Although the young marshal was stationed in Baoding at that time, his second wife, Miss Gu, lived in Tianjin."

Mei Xiang explained with a smile, "I also met Miss Gu in the dance hall at that time. She liked Mei Lanfang, I liked Shang Xiaoyun, and the young marshal and I were half fellow townsmen.

So at that time, we often drove together to Peking to listen to operas. We would listen to them for several days and then come back when we had enough.

After going back and forth, we naturally became friends. It was also at that time that I asked her to help find the young commander as a guarantee, and then I redeemed myself.

As a price, I spent a large sum of money to buy this house. At that time, Miss Gu and the Young Marshal occasionally had bad tempers and even stayed here, and even invited many famous Beijing actresses to sing here."

"So that's how it is," Wei Ran couldn't help but muttered.

"Speaking of this"

Mei Xiang patted her forehead as if she had just remembered, looked at Wei Ran and reminded seriously, "You should especially avoid Miss Gu at the dance tomorrow, but you must not accept her invitation. It's best if you don't even

into her eyes.

But don't blame me for not reminding you that although she and the young marshal are divorced, if you dare to have an affair with her, someone will definitely sink you into the Haihe River, and then even your Aunt Yang and I will be implicated."

"What does my cousin say?"

Wei Ran put out his cigarette and made a promise with a smile. Firstly, he was not a scumbag like Jima, and secondly, in the wild country of Kazan in the future, there were so many beautiful girls with different tastes who would have helped him long ago.

I developed my concentration.

What's more, there is no such thing as seducing a young woman in this return mission, so he will naturally not cause such trouble for himself.

"Okay, let's go downstairs and wait. I'll change into another set of clothes before dinner."

After Mei Xiang finished speaking, she dropped the bouquet in her hand that Wei Ran had made temporarily using newspapers, gauze scarves and roses cut from the flower bed downstairs. She got up and walked back to the room with bare feet.

Seeing this, Wei Ran decisively turned around and went downstairs, lighting another cigarette for himself - the sun was about to set, and he still had about ten cigarettes left to smoke.

When he had relit the cigarette and smoked it almost to the end of the cigarette holder, Mei Xiang, who was wearing breeches, riding boots, a white shirt, and a gray newsboy cap on her head, also walked away from upstairs.

Come down.

At Wei Ran's suggestion, Mei Xiang, who was dressed like a female spy, chose the photo location next to the cream-white Chevrolet four-door sedan in the yard that had just been wiped clean by Cao Mute not long ago.

As a photographer, Wei Ran also pulled out the small ppk pistol he bought not long ago from his waist, emptied the bullets in the chamber and magazine under the vigilant gazes of Cao Duba and Jasmine, and handed it to his eldest cousin.

Used as a photo prop.

After teaching the other party a few poses and taking the photo, Wei Ran took the pistol handed back by the other party, loaded bullets into the magazine and asked, "Cousin, we have the last film left, why don't we have dinner?"

How about we all take a photo together before now?”

"Take a photo together?"

Meixiang glanced at Yang Ma, Cao Muba and others who were standing at the door of the small building watching the excitement, and then nodded happily, "Then let's take a photo together, and then we'll have dinner after taking the photo."

"Come here quickly, the lady wants everyone to take a photo together," Wei Ran said as he put the pistol on his waist again.

Hearing this, Yang Ma and others immediately gathered around and moved out a bench as Wei Ran asked, allowing Mei Xiang, Jasmine and Qiushi to sit on it. Yang Ma and Cao Mamba stood behind, while Tao Canhua stood next to Cao Mamba.

It's on the far right in the back row.

He placed the camera on a chair and adjusted the angle so that he could reserve a spot for himself in the viewfinder. After pressing the selfie stick, Wei Ran quickly ran over and stood behind Yang Ma in the back row.

"Isn't Miss pretty?" Wei Ran, who had been working hard all afternoon, asked loudly with a smile.

The others were stunned when they heard this, and then, including Mei Xiang herself, they all responded loudly with a smile, "Beautiful", and were successfully fixed on the last negative of this roll of film.

However, while taking this group photo full of laughter and laughter, Wei Ran couldn't help but sigh secretly.

He knew that the joy and laughter that followed would soon turn into a long and unsolvable sorrow due to the fall of Jinmen.
