Siheyuan: Sizhu starts blindly and takes a new path

Yu Li asked Sha Zhu if he knew her sister.

"I don't know her." Sha Zhu denied it immediately. What could he say? Could it be that he had a relationship with a girl with the same name as Yu Haitang in his dream? Then Yu Li would either slap Sha Zhu or treat him as a mental patient, and there would be no chance of them meeting again.

Sha Zhu was quick-witted and quickly pulled out his sister to act as a shield: "I haven't seen her, but my sister told me that the announcer at their school is also called Yu Haitang. I was shocked at how small the world is. I ran into people I know after just a few turns."

Sha Zhu didn't dare to continue this topic, so he suggested that they go boating.

While waiting in line for the boat, Sha Zhu looked at Yu Li and suddenly remembered who the girl he was going on a blind date with today was. This girl was Yan Jiecheng's wife in the dream, Yu Haitang's sister. However, the two people in reality and in the dream were a little different. When I remembered the Yu Li in the dream, she was already an older woman. She was beautiful, but she no longer had the quiet and gentle temperament. She was only sarcastic and mean. Alas, such a good girl was instigated and tortured by the Third Uncle and Yan Jiecheng. In order to prevent this girl from falling into the devil's cave and to save this rare beauty in the world, Yan Jiecheng and Third Uncle, let this girl go and let me do it.

The two men got on the boat, and Sha Zhu rowed gently. As there was no destination, the boat drifted slowly in the lake.

As the two were still relatively unfamiliar with each other, neither spoke. Yu Li put her hand into the water. Sha Zhu looked at the reflection of her jade-like arm and the emerald green water, and suddenly remembered a movie in his dream.

"Let me tell you a story about a ship." Sha Zhu asked Yu Li for her opinion.

"Okay." Yu Li did not object. She didn't think Sha Zhu could tell any interesting stories. She didn't know that after listening to this story, she would fall deeply in love with Sha Zhu.

"Around 1912, the year when the Qing dynasty ended and the Republic of China was established, the British built a very large ship, about 270 meters long and 30 meters wide." Sha Zhu pointed to Qionghua Island in the center of the lake, "It's about the same length as this island, and about one-sixth of the island's area. The highest point of the ship is 34 meters, about the same height as this white tower."

"It's so big." Yu Li's eyes were full of disbelief. She had no specific idea about the one-sixth size of Qionghua Island. She just thought that a ship as long as the island should be very big.

"Yes, it was very big. The ship was called the Titanic, and many workers participated in its construction. It had 10 floors in total and could carry more than 2000 people. It was the largest cruise ship in the world at the time and was claimed to be unsinkable. But it sank on its first voyage."

"Ah, it sank the first time, and they claimed it would never sink." Yu Li was shocked again.

"Yes, it's ironic, isn't it?" Sha Zhu smiled, "But that's not the point. The point is that the ship's first voyage was from Britain to the United States. It welcomed a young man who won a ticket by gambling, and a young girl who wanted to solve her family's difficulties. The man's name is Jack, a very common English name, just like our Jianguo and Jiefang, so we call him Jianguo, and the girl's name is Ruth, which means rose, so we call her Rose.

Jianguo was a poor man who wanted to leave Britain to go to the United States to make money, because the United States was said to be full of gold and opportunities to make a fortune. Jianguo won a ticket to the United States from gambling, which was a ticket to the Titanic, and he happily boarded the ship.

Rose's family was broke because of her father's death. She and her mother didn't know how to make money. Her mother didn't want to lose her beautiful clothes, delicious food and luxurious manor. Rose was very beautiful, so her mother wanted to marry her off to maintain her wealthy life.

Rose was introduced to a wealthy businessman. The businessman was very rich and had his own land and factories in the UK and the US. He was a big capitalist.

"Then he will be defeated immediately here." Yu Li interrupted.

"Yes, all the evil capitalists who exploit the working people should be overthrown." Sha Zhu answered firmly, "Go on with the story. The capitalist gave Rose a very valuable gem. He wanted to use the gem to gain Rose's love. Rose had no choice but to accept it. So the capitalist took Rose and her mother to the United States. He planned to marry Rose in the United States. They also boarded the unsinkable Titanic.

Sailing on the ocean on a cruise ship is novel to some people, but boring to others.

Jianguo was a restless young man, and everything was new and strange to him. He played at the bow and stern during the day, and danced with other poor people in the bottom cabin at night. He was very happy. Rose had an arranged marriage, and the capitalist she was going to marry was a little old, which she didn't like, so she found everything boring and was sad all day long.

A happy poor man saw a depressed rich girl and felt an inappropriate compassion. Jianguo saw the beautiful Rose and couldn't bear her to be depressed, so he made her happy, taught her to shout out the dirty words she never dared to say, taught her to smoke, took her to stand on the bow with open arms to feel the sea breeze like a seabird, and took her to dance wildly with the poor. These were things that Rose had never experienced before. Rose's depressed heart was liberated, and she also fell in love with Jianguo.

Of course, young Jianguo also fell in love with the beautiful rose.

The relationship between the two was soon discovered by the capitalist and Rose's mother, who would definitely not agree to it for their own benefit. The capitalist asked Rose's mother to keep an eye on Rose and not let her out of her sight until she arrived in the United States.

As expected, the accident happened normally. That night, the observer failed to spot the iceberg in the dark, causing the Titanic to hit the iceberg and the bow began to leak.

Because the Titanic was said to be unsinkable, it was not equipped with enough lifeboats. The lifeboats on board were only enough for one-third of the people, so the captain made a decision: let women, children and the elderly board the lifeboats first.

There were not enough lifeboats. Some people wanted to jump on board despite the obstruction, some bribed the crew members who had the decision-making power, and some gave up their seats to others without fear of life and death. For a while, the ship was in chaos.

The bad capitalist took advantage of the chaos to knock Jianguo unconscious, took him to a room on the ground floor and locked him up. The evil capitalist wanted to drown Jianguo, let him sink with the ship and disappear forever, and he would not have to bear any legal responsibility.

Rose is a girl and could have safely sat on the lifeboat, but she didn't see Jianguo on the deck and became anxious. She successfully avoided her mother's surveillance and ran into the cabin to look for Jianguo regardless of the danger.

The cabin is full of water at this moment, which is very dangerous. Once you are surrounded by water and trapped in the cabin, your life will be in danger.
