Episode 23: Chen Shanhe asks for medicine for the Japanese father and son
Because Sanguo Youxi’s thank you completely exposed his accent and identity, Xu Nanlu guessed that the father and son were most likely Japanese. Now is the time of hatred between the country and the family. Xu Nanlu felt a little uncomfortable thinking about giving the precious old Huoluo Pill to the invaders. Chen Shanhe said that he was in a dilemma and had to do it as a last resort.
Not long after, Chen Wei arrived in Hong Kong by boat and came to the crowded “Guangzhou Restaurant”. Mai Xiaowen was very surprised to see Chen Wei, so he took him to see Huang Qiquan and said that his master Huang Qiquan had lost his sense of taste and smell. It was useless to ask all the doctors. It was mainly due to a heart disease.
In order to make Huang Qiquan feel better, Chen Wei personally cooked two dishes of his favorite dishes. Sure enough, Huang Qiquan had regained his sense of smell and taste. Mai Xiaowen was very happy and praised Chen Wei repeatedly. Watching Huang Qiquan gobble it up, Chen Wei was also very happy, indicating that Wok Qi Huang was back again.
On the other hand, Chen Shanhe followed Xu Nanlu to the guerrilla camp, and felt sad when he saw the soldiers who were injured and bruised while protecting their country. Xu Nanlu said that now is the moment to save the nation and hope that Chen Shanhe can do his part as a Chinese. However, Chen Shanhe still wanted to take care of his younger brothers and sisters first, and use his own way to save the country and save the people from the fire.
The arrival of Chen Wei brought vitality and vitality to Guangzhou Restaurant. The long-lost taste of hometown slowly revived the decadent Guangzhou Restaurant. Under Chen Wei’s rectification, the Hong Kong Guangzhou Restaurant has a completely new look, with an endless stream of customers visiting every day.
However, inhumane massacres have begun in Guangzhou. Newspapers reported that five chefs who cooked with Chen Wei were killed. Chen Wei fell into deep regret and self-blame, and his mood collapsed. After knowing this, Mai Xiaowen revealed to Chen Wei that he was a member of the Communist Party and introduced Chen Wei to join the party organization.
Because of this, Chen Wei learned that Mai Xiaowen joined the Communist Party after coming to Hong Kong. While making a living in a large restaurant in Guangzhou, he secretly engaged in anti-Japanese work. Mai Xiaowen knew Chen Wei and knew that he had reached a turning point in his life when he denounced the traitor Wang Jingwei out of a sense of justice, so he absorbed Chen Wei into the organization and trained him in various aspects, including shooting with various weapons. As well as Chinese martial arts fighting, Chen Wei has shown strong learning ability.
Jin Huirong suddenly came to Chen Lixia and said that she would leave Guangzhou for a while and hoped that she could take care of herself. Taro Sanguo took Laohuoluo Pill to cure stubborn diseases, and also sent several loads of Western medicine and food as agreed, which attracted Ruan Feizhou’s attention. Ruan Feizhou came to San Guo Youxi in person, with hints and threats in his words. San Guo Youxi could only pretend to be confused because he understood.
Ruan Feizhou used Zhang Taiping and Chen Yebing to threaten Chen Lixia. Therefore, Chen Lixia had no choice but to participate in the Sino-Japanese Art Exchange Conference. The underground Communists lurking in Guangzhou discussed sabotaging this so-called exchange meeting, and even hired trucks to park at the back door to pick up patriotic artists from various countries.
On the day of the exchange meeting, Ruan Feizhou came backstage and found that the gun tip Chen Lixia wanted to use was a sharp real gun tip, so he knocked off the gun tip in front of her and pushed her onto the stage. Although Chen Lixia did not perform for the Japanese, her image was still photographed by reporters, and it made headlines the next day, confirming Chen Lixia’s identity as a “traitor.”
Because of Chen Lixia’s outstanding appearance at the Sino-Japanese Art Exchange Conference, Chen Yebing was completely disappointed with Chen Lixia. He directly approached reporters from all walks of life and publicly stated that he would sever the master-disciple relationship with Chen Lixia and never have any friendship with him again. Chen Lixia had troubles and wanted to explain to her master, but unfortunately, Chen Yebing refused to listen. In Chen Yebing’s view, Chen Lixia, who had no self-respect, might as well die, but Chen Lixia knew that death might prove his innocence, but he could do more while living. As a result, the relationship between Chen Lixia and her master reached a freezing point, and she couldn’t help complaining to her elder brother when she returned home.
