Old Movies of the Republic of China II

"lady."

Chun'er helped Qinghe take off his coat.

Susie said, "You seem to be thinner than before."

Qing He smiled, and did not answer this question, but said: "Madam, do you still remember Liu Meng?"

"Liu Meng? Remember, what happened to him?"

Qinghe said: "There is a spy next to Liu Meng, who says he is a member of the right party. I am not sure yet. I thought that rather than deal with him directly, it would be better to keep him by my side and see if it can be useful. "

Susie touched the prayer beads on her wrist, "It's fine if you know it yourself, and tell me what to do."

"I..." Qinghe paused, and said, "Let me tell you first, I am at ease."

Su Qian said: "Little Qinghe, you belong to Zheng'er, and I have nothing to worry about you. In the future, you can do things like this by yourself, and you don't need to tell me. You are still young, and many things still need to be done. You have to learn by yourself, even if you make mistakes, it doesn’t matter. When you grow up, you have more things to take care of than now, do you still have to tell me one by one? Ask me if you don’t understand, huh?”

Qinghe nodded.

Susie's trust made him feel at ease, which was different from the peace of mind Zhang Zheng gave him.

No matter what he did, no matter how big a mess he made, Zhang Zheng would probably protect him, but Susie was different. No matter her identity or vision, she would not protect herself regardless of her own interests.Only Susie's approval can convince him that his direction is correct.

"Is Suzhi not here?"

Su Qian smiled lightly and said: "You've been busy these days, so I didn't tell you that Suzhi has married someone, and she will get married this month, and I will let Yinger serve you in the future."

Qinghe remembered the scene where Suzhi knelt at Zhang Zheng's feet, hoping that he would leave her behind, and still felt uncomfortable.

He cleared his throat and said, "After all, it's a master-servant relationship. I'll give her a red envelope."

Su Qian nodded, "Suzhi is a good boy, he obeys the rules and is caring, but Zhang Zhengfei said that she is old enough to delay her. Speaking of which, how much older is Chun'er than Suzhi? I haven't thought about it until now. To get married."

Chun'er said with a smile: "It's better for a servant to serve by Madam's side than anything else, so I don't want to get married."

Of course Qing He knew why Zhang Zheng wanted to marry Su Zhi, and she felt warm in her heart.I don't know where his luck came from, how could Zhang Zheng cherish him so much.

...He should come back, right?

Seeing that Qing He was distracted, Su Qian nodded to Chun Er, Chun Er understood, took out a thick notebook from the side drawer, and handed it to Qing He.

"This is……?"

Qinghe opened the dark blue shell, and the words "Northeast Language School Graduation Certificate" made him a little excited.

Su Qian said: "Teacher Fang delivered it personally in the morning. I will accept it first if you are not at home."

In the photo, the young man with exquisite eyebrows and eyes still has long hair and clear and ignorant eyes.

This is a photo taken when he was just in school.

Qinghe couldn't help raising her hand, as if she wanted to touch her hair through the photo.Zhang Zheng never said it, but Qinghe knew that he was not as calm as it seemed on the surface when he cut his hair, and sometimes he even forgot that his long hair was gone, so he naturally wanted to touch it.

"Anyway, getting a diploma is a good thing after all. Let's celebrate tonight."

Qing He said: "Wait for the young master to come back...is that okay?"

Susie laughed and said, "Why not, okay, you child, I really don't know what ecstasy drug Zheng'er gave you."

Qinghe had a nightmare that night.

He dreamed that on the battlefield filled with gunpowder, Zhang Zheng's face was covered with blood, and his eyes were as fierce as a lone wolf. From time to time, shells exploded at his feet, but he didn't know how to hide, but instead rushed towards the direction of the shells.

A stray bullet hit his shoulder, and Zhang Zheng staggered, but he didn't fall down. More blood flowed from his body, and a roar came from his throat.

In the dream, Qinghe wanted to run over, even if he couldn't fight with him, at least he could block him when stray bullets came, but his body weighed over a thousand catties, so he couldn't move no matter what.

"Young Master," Qing He exhausted all his strength, but he was the only one who could hear the voice: "Zhang Zheng."

Amidst the roaring sound, the last thing he saw was a slow-flying bullet heading towards Zhang Zheng's head.

Qinghe seemed to step on the ground all of a sudden, and sat up suddenly, her face was covered with cold sweat, and her hair was sticking to it.

He threw off the thin quilt and got out of bed, sat on the sofa and drank a glass of plain water.

It's just an absurd dream, Qinghe comforted himself, how many times, didn't he always escape death?No matter how dangerous the situation is, Zhang Zheng has nothing to fear.

"Master Ziran," Wang Xianben handed over a photo, "Dadong brought it back."

Qing He took a look, "It's still the same person."

Wang Xianben nodded: "Dadong wants to follow him to see who is hiding behind him, but he is very vigilant. In order not to startle the snake, Dadong can only come back first."

"Are you sure he doesn't know someone is following?"

Wang Xianben grinned: "Master Ziran, don't worry, Dadong has no other skills, and few people can match him in this."

"What has Fangran been doing lately?"

"I've been bored at home all day, except for meeting this man once, I haven't been out much."

Qinghe thought for a while, "I still look at him."

Besides Fangran's business, Qinghe still has a lot of things to do, playing mahjong with officials and wives, shopping, drinking tea outside, sometimes Qinghe feels that they don't regard him as a man - he is indeed still young, But they probably all tacitly regarded him as a woman.

"Zi Ran," Mrs. Zhang sipped her coffee casually and said, "Do you know a man named Du Zhongyuan?"

"Eu Zhongyuan?" Qing He was startled: "I haven't heard of it."

"Speaking of it, it's not easy for him to be where he is today. At the time, the Marshal ordered the Education Department to send students to study abroad. Du Zhongyuan's application was personally approved by my husband. He went to Japan and studied ceramic manufacturing at the Tokyo Higher Technical School. Now that I have finished my studies and return to China, I want to contribute to the national industry."

Qinghe thought for a while, "I want to meet this person."

Mrs. Zhang smiled, "I knew it, you must not miss this talent. To tell you the truth, he visited my house and talked about building a factory. My husband originally wanted to recommend him to others, but I immediately thought about you."

Qing He said: "Zi Ran is very grateful."

Mrs. Zhang shook her head with a smile: "Don't say that, although you are almost ten years younger than me, we are friends in the same generation, and we are friends, so there is nothing to be grateful for."

Qinghe looked at the coffee in the cup.

Porcelain?

Mrs. Zhang was cutting a piece of dim sum when she suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Zi Ran, Du Zhongyuan is a talented person, but he doesn't know how to deal with people. He relies on his wife to take care of all his social activities. Mrs. Du is a Strange girl, it's just..."

Qinghe: "Huh?"

Mrs. Zhang smiled, seemingly disdainful: "When Du Zhongyuan was studying in Japan, his hometown already had a wife and four daughters. Even so, he still pursued the so-called 'love' without any scruples. Mrs. Du did not feel ashamed when she abandoned her wife and son. Mrs. Du came from a foreign-style family and received the best education since she was a child. Such a person is really funny."

Mrs. Zhang's "abandoning his wife and son" is very contemptuous.

Qing He paused, "Did he ignore them?"

Mrs. Zhang shook her head and said: "His wife is still taking care of his parents and children in his hometown, but when he came back, he only wrote a letter there, declaring that he would sever the 'feudal arranged marriage'. Did not send."

She quickly said: "Zi Ran, you are still young, and you have never seen what these people look like. Do you know that many students who go abroad to study have families, but when they come back, they often pursue the so-called love. The original women were regarded as a burden. Many of them were even like Du Zhongyuan, who didn't even care about their children."

Qinghe is thoughtful.

"How's his grades in Tokyo?"

"Very good," Mrs. Zhang said, "Not only are the grades good, but it is said that he also participated in the anti-imperialist propaganda when he came back, and there are many people coming and going."

Qinghe doesn't really want to get involved with such a person.

Susie looked at him and said seriously: "Qinghe, you can't deny his talent just because he doesn't care about his wife and children in his hometown."

"However," Qinghe said, "doesn't this mean that he has no sense of responsibility? If I really take out the funds and let him start a factory, I will inevitably worry that he will enrich himself behind my back, or something else."

Susie shook her head: "You're still too young. Qinghe, there is no one in this world who doesn't think about himself. That is to say, if conditions permit, anyone will make small moves. But we can't give up because of choking. A person has talent and talent. Ability, why not use him? As for your worry, it is not unreasonable, but it does not matter how much he takes within the tolerable range, as long as his value is high enough. But if he crosses the line, his hand is too long , there are not many ways to punish?"

Qinghe still felt very awkward: "You mean, character is not important?"

"How can it be unimportant?" Susie said: "Do you still remember that I praised you and said that you have a good character? To me, how could this be unimportant. But different people, in different positions, you want What you look at is different. How can it be so easy to find people with good character, loyalty, and ability? So at this time, you have to learn to use their strengths."

Qinghe lowered her head: "But as long as I think of him abandoning his wife and son, I feel very disgusted."

Susie smiled and patted his hand: "You may have other feelings when you see him and listen to him. Besides, there are too many selfish people in this world. You will see more in the future." I won’t make a fuss anymore. Don’t think too much, meet him, and objectively judge whether his words are reliable. If you are not sure, you can ask Wang Yongjiang for help in private. There are many capable people under him. They check to see if this Eucommia is worth your help."

"……Um."

[The author has something to say]: Du Zhongyuan is based on Du Zhongyuan, who is a real person in history, but there are discrepancies with the text.
