Chapter 392: Tomorrow's Finale
When Shao Nian and Chu Xue transported a large amount of disaster relief funds to Jecheng, with Zhang Shaoshuai in power, the confrontation between the north and the south finally came to an end.
As the embraced by Chairman Jiang on the surface, the situation instantly shifted in a direction that Shao Nian couldn't understand.
In the second half of the year, Shao Nianshi did not wait for the new government to attack the Jecheng incident, but waited for another unexpected order.
Zhang Shaoshuai actually led his Northeast Army to detain the Soviet diplomatic leaders in the Northeast with lightning speed.
On behalf of the government, it announced the severance of diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union.
Liao Zhongkai, the pro-Soviet policy that the New Revolutionary Party has been working hard for a long time has officially come to an end from this moment on.
Shao Nianshi, who had never participated in the political situation, but did not have the slightest good impression of the powers, fell into confusion because of this decision at the top.
"Hatsuyuki? Why do you think they're doing that?"
"What is this? What is the significance of Mr. Liao's death? Who really cares about so many innocent people who died at the guns of the great powers?"
"The workers in Qingcheng and the tens of thousands of old and young masters in Jicheng are all tragedies caused by these people. β
"Isn't this kind of deep hatred and hatred the tragedy that we Chinese always say about destroying the door?"
"How can we still work with someone like that?"
Chu Xue looked at this angry fiancΓ©, whose demeanor and patience were gone, and when she was worried, she felt a trace of sour amusement.
It turns out that for the eldest husband, Mount Tai does not change its color, and the reason is because this Mount Tai is not heavy enough.
When things are serious to a certain extent, no matter how calm a person is, there is also a gaffe.
But Chu Xue, who also didn't understand high-level politics enough, could only think of a way for him: "Why don't we go back to Jicheng!"
"It's been half a year, and the inside of Jeseong is almost cleaned up. β
"First, we should go home for the New Year, and second, we should also prepare for our wedding. β
"But your job?"
Chu Xue shook her head: "Don't worry, just like you said, some things have already involved the fundamentals. β
"If we don't figure it out, we're just scratching the surface and doing things that don't matter. β
"There are a lot of people who can do these things, and we have enough people to do it. β
"The most important thing now is to clear my future husband's doubts. β
"I am afraid that the faith in your heart, the ideals of your life, and the cause you have worked hard for will be devastating because of this incident. β
"So, in the New Year, let's calm down and figure out what we should do in the future. β
"This government is not what you once envisioned. β
Speaking of this, Chu Xue stretched out his hand and gently wrapped his arms around Shao Nianshi's waist: "Don't care too much, no matter how shrewd a businessman is, there is no guarantee that every investment he makes is correct." β
"As you once said, it's not scary to fail an investment, it's scary to not know how to stop losses in time. β
"It's just a good thing for us to stop, take a good rest, stop running around about other people's things, just worry about our own business. β
"What do you think?"
The words of the first snow were like the spring breeze in March caressing the willow branches, which inexplicably silenced Shao Nian's anxious heart.
He turned around, wrapped Chu Xue in his arms, stared deeply at this beautiful fiancΓ©e, and nodded gently: "Okay, let's go home." β
The next day, a train bound for Jeseong sent them to the city that cared for them.
For their return at this time, the first master was not the slightest surprised.
He didn't ask for any reason, just dragged them to the first mansion in Jeseong.
Because the mansion of the first family is located in the concession area of Jeseong.
When the Japanese wantonly seized Jeseong's property, out of scruples and influence in the world, they did not put their hands into the area where the Hakujia Mansion was located.
But even so, on the road from the train station to the mansion, Shao Nianshi still saw traces of the raging war.
This was once a busy and crowded provincial town, and because of this incident, it was covered in gray.
"Sit back!"
"Can't you figure it out?"
The first master holding the teacup, with the clarity and sophistication brought by decades of life.
"What's the matter?"
"If you have experienced the previous dynasty, dealt with the northern government, and watched the ups and downs of the eight or nine overseers in front and back of the Shandong Mansion, then the current matter is not a matter. β
"I have never interfered with the ambitions you wanted to achieve from the beginning, including my youngest son's dream of defending his family and country, do you know why?"
"Because the growth that young people need is something they have personally felt and seen with their own eyes, so that they can truly understand. β
"It's just us old things, how can you believe it?"
"Some things aren't as simple as you seem, and some people aren't as charismatic as they look.
The current situation, the situation in the country, is more complicated than the character and behavior of one person. β
"Let me ask you, are you unable to accurately judge a person's emotions and his thoughts?"
"So if it's like China now, why do you believe that you can influence and change?"
"Looking at the events of thousands of years, what country has prospered with a single merchant?"
"Don't look at the success of the industrial revolution abroad, and apply the experience of others to your own. β
"Those of us who want to improve our status are already more difficult, and you still want to use your own set to save a country's decline......"
"Child, the maturity that I thought I was supposed to be, in the eyes of those of us, is not young and frivolous. β
"It's just that this kind of heart is something that we old things don't want to break. β
Speaking of this, the first master saw through the world with a little bit of depression, and set his eyes far away, his voice in Shao Nianshi's ears was like a catkins in the wind, with so much nothingness and ethereal......
"Isn't this our dream when we were young, it's just that our dreams have been shattered, and we hope that someone can realize it for us......"
"What if?"
"It's just that your anger and self-abandonment are completely unnecessary. β
"There must be a way to change this country, but our path has not touched the roots. β
"You always thought you understood the nature of this world, but now you have found out, right?"
"That's not enough. β
"Until this matter is decided, nothing is as important as the big wedding between you and Hatsuyuki. β
"Don't blame me for being too numb to this government and my own country. β
"The most important thing now is to live our own lives and put our mentality right in the midst of this depression. β
"Live seriously and go to work happily. β
"With your own eyes, watching the progress of this country, if you think you can help, even if it is kicking off a stone on its way forward, a small ditch in the process of climbing, you are a person who has helped this country. β
"In history, there will be traces of your existence. β
"The merits and demerits are left for future generations to comment, how do you know that Mr. Liao under Jiuquan will regret his bravery?"
"Shao Nianshi, Shao Nianshi, said that you are a real businessman, do you believe it this time?"
Shao Nianshi seemed to understand something when he said this, and he seemed to be even more at a loss.
He stood in the courtyard of the first house for a long time, until it was already dark, and Chu Xue walked out of the house because he was worried about him, and when the windbreaker he was carrying was on his shoulder, he really pulled him out of the state of sudden dream.
This made Shao Nian, who suffered a major setback for the first time, and even began to doubt himself for a while, and a feeling of guilt inexplicably emerged.
I found thorns and bumps on the way forward, and when I found that I was not walking on a great road, but maybe just a small fork in the rolling torrent, why should I blame myself?
At the beginning, his parents' requirements for him, and his original intention when he first walked out of the small village, wasn't it to live this ordinary life happily?
Now he can be said to have perfectly realized his former ideals?
With wealth that others can't imagine, a gentle and beautiful confidant, and a social status that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, what is he asking for?
On the other hand, it is not a reflection of my own high opinion of myself.
This shows that he is a little too vain now, and his mentality is too floating, which is really too bad.
Maybe the sudden occurrence of this incident and the slap on his head are all good things for him.
He is still young, in his early twenties, and it is better to encounter this kind of thing that is enough to doubt his life than to wait until he is seventy or eighty, thinking that his life is worth it, and then suddenly find that what he has done in the previous years is useless.
Although this is a little sorry for this country, Shao Nianshi is fortunate that he can have the opportunity to soberly understand the world and this country at this time.
"It's me! Not next time, I'm worried. β
"My father-in-law is right, at this time, don't put your identity too high, but return to the identity of an ordinary person. β
"For an ordinary man, my number one priority now is to marry you home. β
"So, Miss Chuxue, please take care of me in the days to come!"
The sky was gradually getting colder, and Shao Nian, who held Chu Xue's hand with his backhand, took his coat in his arms along with the woman opposite.
They stood in the courtyard in the moonlight and began to imagine their happiness and future.
β¦β¦
In the spring of the second year, on the fifth day of the fifth month, it is advisable to marry.
Chujia Town, and even inside and outside Jicheng, have ushered in the biggest happy event in the past year.
The pain of this city has been forgotten by more and more people in the tug-of-war between the two sides.
This grand and unprecedented wedding can be regarded as adding a touch of brightness to this gray city.
About a few days ago, the whole of Shandong, no, the huge north, has been about to move with some of them.
On the train in Manchuria, there are carriages dressed in red and green, transporting supplies in the direction of Guannai one by one.
In Beiping City, which is full of Beijing accent and Beijing charm, two or three of the most popular local opera gardens were closed a week ago.
It is said that the popular horns have been invited away by the first family in Jicheng, Shandong, and there are three or two kittens left, but they can't pick the beams.
In fact, this insider knows why most of the pear orchards are so depressed, and it is not those who have not made a name for themselves.
Thinking that merchants from the south and north gathered, even if they set up a simple platform in the outfield, they could earn half a year's eating, drinking and Lazar for the troupe in just one month.
The restlessness is not only these unrelated people, as if the relationship network between the Chu family and Shao Nian can spread all over the north and south of the river, those who have some relationship with them, good partners, and even important officials in the government, military and political affairs who still need their full support, have also sent their own representatives, either in advance, or a little bit to rush to the location of the old house of the Chu family in Jicheng.
After all, the current unification of the country has reached the end of the state, and in the process of the stability of the country and the political power, a happy event can always bring people a good omen.
As a result, there are many strange figures on the various railway lines, and they may be stepping on the train to this strange city for the first time in their lives, just to attend a friend's wedding.
It was also on this day that the huge Jicheng felt how grand this wedding would be.
Starting from the entrance of the Jeseong concession area, all the way to the gate of Chujia Town, which goes out to the outside of the city, it is filled with a lively crowd like a market.
Most of the people on both sides of the road are there to join in the fun.
It is said that when the aunt of the first family came to pick up the young lady of the first family, he would give some red envelopes along the way.
The rest are blowing, playing, singing, and being able to do business of abortion.
There are monkey performers, storytellers and singers, and there are more silk music gongs and drums, which should be accompanied by the band invited by the first family to add a huge momentum to the welcoming team.
