The Little Wife of the Poet of the Republic of China 9
Life afterwards was calm. Because Zhou Zekai returned home abroad, many people visited the Zhou family. During the Chinese New Year, Zhou Zekai also took his wife Meng Qiongyu to visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and Meng Chi, who was like a fish in the water when he returned home.
"Mingzhen, look at this kid, since he came back, he was doing nothing all day and never looked at his studies. He only knew how to play, you brother-in-law, but you have to teach him a good lesson!"
Meng Zhang was very happy to see his son-in-law. When he decided to do so, he thought the child was good. Later, after his daughter got married, he also enjoyed a lot of happiness. This time he came back and heard from his son that his son-in-law bought a lot of clothes and jewelry for his daughter. I think he took his daughter to heart, which made Meng Zhang very pleased.
"Father-in-law, he finally came back for a while. You let him play. He doesn't have time to play these abroad. He is busy with school affairs all day long. He is even busier than me. After I return to China this time, I don't plan to go abroad again. But Achi is more talented than me. I have said hello to the school teacher. After the New Year, you ask Shuanzi to accompany Achi to take care of him. I believe that if he finishes his studies this time, he will definitely be able to get good grades."
Zhou Zekai looked at his father-in-law with a smile. He admired this father-in-law. Although it was the Republic of China period, it had reached its junction with the new era. In the past, there were high officials from the ancestors of the Meng family. Although there were also Zhou family members, what were the genealogies of the Zhou family? The Meng family was a real big family. By the time Meng Zhang's generation, he became the president of the Shangjing Bank Branch, which was enough to prove his ability.
Of course, in addition to this, he has various names. For example, most newspapers in Shangjing City have a relationship with this old man. The financial news in his hands will be notified to the newspapers as soon as possible, such as Shangjing City Financial Daily, Shangjing City Struggle Daily, Shangjing City Justice Daily, etc., which is enough to show his influence.
"You kid, you can talk. OK, I won't talk about him anymore. He said that your studies abroad are good. If you come back this time, you don't plan to go there. Are you planning to take over the family business?"
This is what Meng Zhang cares about. Although as long as he is an aspiring young man these days, he is under the guise of patriotism and wants to die to prove his determination, but this literati is just shouting in his mouth when fighting. If he really fights, he may be the first to die. If there is no money or supplies, how can he resist the enemy's invasion?
"Yes, my father-in-law, I have been studying abroad for so many years and have found that the foreign financial system is actually not as good as the domestic one. Although the country is a little chaotic now, gold is produced in troubled times. Taking advantage of this time, there is some money in my hand and can support the construction of the country. Didn't our Commander Wang say that? If someone outside wants to invade the land in Beijing, it depends on whether he is willing to do so!"
Zhou Zekai's words were the news that his father-in-law Meng Zhang wanted to take the team. After all, it was very chaotic at this moment. Large warlord groups appeared in several provinces and cities outside. Now, the city of Beijing is still full of singing and dancing, but such singing and dancing are also maintained by Commander Wang. In the past few days after returning, Zhou Zekai has quickly collected all the information of Commander Wang and knew that Commander Wang was an ambitious and wise person, and he was very willing to help such a person.
"You, your idea is a bit dangerous~"
How could Meng Zhang not hear the idea of his son-in-law? It’s just that these days, warlords have emerged, but not one or two have been destroyed. They have to be beaten several times a year. Who knows if they support which warlord, the next second will be gone. It may bring a catastrophe to the family. As the president, Meng Zhang has seen more people, so Commander Wang has naturally seen him. He knows that this man is an excellent and wise leader, but he cannot put the weight on this man. After all, no one knows what this Commander Wang will do in the end.
"Any huge profit is risky. Father-in-law, the country is in turmoil and invading. Not to mention that Commander Wang is determined to protect us people, he has prevented many soldiers from patrolling our streets all day long. We have the same peaceful days as we have now, and we rely on the protection of Commander Wang. Even if we have fought several battles, we still have to occupy our territory in the City of Shangjing. Now Commander Wang is in need of help. I think that as long as we give him enough resources, he will definitely be able to do better than we imagined."
This is the development method that Zhou Zekai finally determined. It was not very safe during the Republic of China period, especially Shangjing City. Five years later, Shangjing City will be captured by the Japanese enemy. Then the people will live in poverty. Now, at least they are protected by Commander Wang. Although there are many foreigners on the territory of Shangjing, under the care of Commander Wang, no one dares to do anything.
"Mingzhen, do you know that the decision you made now may push your Zhou family into a place that will live up to the abyss. Do you also want to do this? Wang Xuesheng was a domineering person in our city of Shangjing before. Now the situation is turbulent, so he has achieved his current achievements. Those people under his command are not vegetarians. If you are mingling with them, aren't you afraid that the Zhou family will be swallowed up one day?"
Frowning tightly, Meng Zhang wanted to persuade his son-in-law. After all, it is no longer the era of emperors. The so-called warlords just want to become emperors through war. However, the people have been free for so long, and selling their own contracts has gradually lost their effect. If an emperor appears again, I am afraid that the people will not allow it.
"Father-in-law, don't worry about this. I won't let something happen to my family. I plan to try this, but I still need my father-in-law's help. I heard that my father-in-law has a good relationship with our Struggle Daily and the president of the Justice Daily in Beijing. I have some poems here that I want my father-in-law to help me. If I can, I want to publish them in these two daily newspapers."
That's right, Zhou Zekai wanted to use these poems to seduce Wang Xuesheng. He had investigated before that Wang Xuesheng was a person who loved the motherland very much and also admired literati very much, so he planned to use poems to attract Wang Xuesheng to appear.
"Your works? Let's take a look first. Recently, the Struggle Daily is not a good player, so I have started to play the advanced one. If your works are good, I will hand them over to the president of Justice Daily."
It is absolutely OK to open a back door for your son-in-law. Meng Zhang was curious about what kind of poems he wrote as his son-in-law.
Zhou Zekai did not hide it from it, and took out the poem he had prepared long ago and handed it to his father-in-law.
Meng Zhang was a little curious, and opened the letter paper and saw the neat and orderly pen letters on it.
"I Love This Land", Meng Zhang was attracted by the name of this poem at first sight because he knew what this land represents.
Immediately afterwards, Meng Zhang saw the most popular advanced poetry style nowadays. More young people have gone abroad in recent years, which naturally has had an impact on the poetry collection. Many young people like to write some such advanced poetry. Meng Zhang had read a few poems before, but they were all about love and love. It was meaningless. It was really a waste of the inheritance of our ancestors. However, this poem made Meng Zhang look quietly...
"
As she looked, Meng Zhang felt a sudden soreness in his nose. For some reason, he remembered the scene he saw when he was out for a trip. Those people who grew up on this land were suffering extremely sad pain and torture. They faced the invasion of the enemy, faced with the artillery fire and massacre of their own people, their grief and anger could not be suppressed, and their sorrow could not be filled...
Why do I often have tears in my eyes?
Because I love this land deeply...
Even a big old man felt something now, and his eyes were red. Now it is a national crisis and a country is in turmoil. If there is such a good work to call everyone's patriotism, it is also excellent! Moreover, this poem is simple and clear. As long as people read it, they can be deeply touched. It is indeed a good work.
After reading this poem, Meng Zhang could not calm down for a long time. He knew too much about the land he was stepping on, and what people paid to protect her.
At this moment, Meng Zhang finally understood what his son-in-law did, because he loved this land and could not bear to be trampled on by thieves. In the hands of the Chinese, he could at least protect the Chinese people from being hurt and driven away...
"This is indeed a good poem. Mingzhen, you have indeed made a lot of progress in the years you have been abroad."
Patting Zhou Zekai's shoulder, Meng Zhang also thought at this moment that if his son-in-law really supports Wang Xuesheng, he would do his best and put his Meng family's foundation in to pave the way for Wang Xuesheng! See which warlord leader outside dared to invade Shangjing City!!!
"Father-in-law, I'll give you this manuscript. Please help me collect the manuscript fees and the like. I hope that after seeing this poem, more people will know that the country has faced a time when we need our protection. We cannot allow the storm to erode our land. We must also fight hard! Protect the land under our feet!"
Zhou Zekai also understood his father-in-law's feelings. This poem is indeed very well written. Every time Zhou Zekai reads it, he will have a unique sense of belonging and mission deep in his soul. Even if this world is a fictional world, he will do something in this world and change something.
At least, he would never allow the incident of Shangjing City being attacked by foreign enemies in five years!
"Okay! With your patriotic heart, I will definitely do the things for you. Let's talk about Justice Daily. Let's go to all the daily newspapers in Beijing. I will invite them to dinner tonight. Try to make this poem appear in the newspaper tomorrow. Don't worry!"
