Chapter 7: The Black Lantern Ball
The matter between Yang Weifan and Zhou Manna is not very complicated, it is all caused by his own youth, madness and negligence. Vertices are updated the fastest
In fact, in view of the historical lessons that occurred in the "Chi Zhiqiang Incident", from the beginning of the popularity of ballroom dancing, Hong Yanwu solemnly warned Yang Weifan not to participate in the "black light ball" of the cadres' children.
At the beginning, Yang Weifan did the same. It's a pity that later, he gradually relaxed his vigilance.
Because the first is that ballroom balls are often held within the "sea administration".
In order to socialize and participate in activities, actresses learn this is also one of their work tasks. Since there are few male actors in the troupe, there are even fewer young and dancing actors, so naturally there are often people looking for Yang Weifan to spar.
The second is that the "black light ball" in the children's circle at that time actually did not live up to its name.
Usually it's just a dim light. The organizers and participants are also acquaintances, and the selection of dance partners is strict. It is far from developing to the extent that it was later to lure ignorant girls into sinking under the guise of a dance party.
So Yang Weifan felt that Hong Yanwu was a bit exaggerated. Occasionally, I can't erase my feelings, such as when Zhou Manna expresses strong dissatisfaction with the dancing with the people in his group. He would also accept her invitation to jump around the "Navy Compound" or the "General Rear Compound".
Yang Weifan thinks that this is cautious enough, after all, they are all places with backers, and it is impossible for people to arrest them in the small buildings of military-level and ministerial-level cadres, right?
yes, he was right. But that's not the only thing that's dangerous. He just forgot one thing, wine can make people dizzy, and there is a soft knife on the head of the word "color".
According to the general rule, bad things often start to change from good things, and this time is no exception.
Since May last year, Yang Weifan's career has been thriving, and in just half a year, he has become a well-known songwriter and leader of popular songs in the country. Honor and fame come easily.
And with the song "Young Friends Come to Meet" sung in the Great Hall of the People on the National Day, he has become a singer loved by the military and civilians across the country.
Although he is too young, he was only rated as a national second-class actor for meritorious service. It is an indisputable fact that he has become a hand-picked actor of a "great man", not only benefiting his family, but also becoming a figure worthy of the finale in a national performance.
Since the beginning of this year, he has turned even more red.
A notice appeared in the February 1980 issue of Song magazine. The "Listeners' Favorite Songs" selection jointly organized by Song magazine and the National People's Radio began to enter the voting stage.
After the news was published, the editorial office of Song magazine received a large number of letters from listeners. In less than a week, the sacks that came from the post office one after another filled the editorial office.
A total of 250,000 votes were received from all over the country. Soon, just before Chinese New Year's Eve, the results of the selection were announced.
A total of fifteen songs were selected, all of which were lyrical songs that had just become popular after the "movement". And the four songs sung or "created" by Yang Weifan are all listed.
The results are astonishing. Even Li Guyi, the female singer and actress of the "National Orchestra" who originally won this award, only had three tracks selected: "Sister Looking for Brother Tears", "Velvet Flower", and "White Feather Sending Affection". The original song "Frontier Spring Water is Clear and Clear" was squeezed out.
In this regard, Hong Kong's "Wen Wei Po" reported for the first time the beginning and end of this unprecedented event. These songs are also scheduled to be played on a loop in the weekly song column of the National People's Radio.
Not only Guangzhou Pacific Audio-Visual Company called again, hoping that Yang Weifan could create two more new songs, so that he could release another solo album tape. Even single girls from all walks of life sent countless love letters to the "sea politics".
So the parents praised it, the brothers and sisters praised it, and the people around them were even more eager to hold Yang Weifan to the sky, and they all added icing on the cake to join in the fun. Let this kid have no time to socialize, and eat everywhere.
And the descendants of the commanders and military commanders he knew were also not far behind, and under the encouragement of Zhou Manna, they even held a small-scale "celebration party" for him in the "Sichuan Hotel" at No. 51 Xirong Hutong.
As an added mention, this Sichuan-style restaurant is not an ordinary place.
When it was opened in 1959, it was named by the prime minister himself and asked Mr. Guo Moruo to write a plaque. The real estate used is Xunbeizi Mansion in the late Qing Dynasty, which is composed of a typical courtyard house and a back garden, covering an area of more than 10,000 square meters, which can be called the largest restaurant in Beijing.
Moreover, although the owner here nominally plans the general office of the "Southwest Provincial Party Committee", the "Southwest King" has to make decisions about the size of the hotel.
In addition, the staff of this hotel are carefully selected and belong to the status of national cadres. The chefs of the restaurant are all local Sichuan people who are "politically reliable and have excellent business". The main and non-staple food raw materials of the hotel are all supplied by Sichuan. Waiters are asked not to pass on anything they see or hear.
Why is it so good? It's because the customer level here is relatively high. The water in this pool is very deep.
For example, among the national leaders of the 50s and 60s, except for the "great leader" and the "second successor" who was later criticized, everyone else stopped here. Many marshals and generals from Sichuan and Hunan are frequent visitors.
As a result, during the "three-year difficult period", supplies were in short supply elsewhere, but the supply here was as usual. And this shop not only has food, but also a place for bathing, back rubbing, haircuts, pedicures and entertainment. It's just that ordinary customers don't know about it.
In the "period of the movement", the revolutionary establishment once called this hotel "the Pei Duofei Club in tandem with the big capitalist roaders", which is ugly, and its function is not far from the truth. The "Sichuan Hotel" of that year can indeed be called the "high-class club" of politicians.
Needless to say, Yang Weifan, who knows the inside story, is full of enthusiasm and flattered.
While tasting the "fried pea tips", "bean dregs duck breast", "camphor tea meat" and "dry roasted cinnamon fish" that many adults liked, he also sang songs to cheer everyone up. This naturally aroused everyone's interest, and even the service staff stopped to watch and applaud.
It's just that after being full of wine and food, everyone was still unsatisfied, so they said that they would go to the small building of Minister Zhou of the "General Queen" to dance. Yang Weifan was actually a little drunk and didn't want to go, but he couldn't stand the coaxing of everyone, so he forcibly stuffed him into the car like a ticket kidnapping, and took him with him.
Speaking of which, some people may have questions. Will Manna's family be able to mess around with these young people that week?
Hey, in fact, senior cadres of Zhou Manna's father basically live in the courtyard houses in the downtown area. What's more, he also served in the key department in charge of materials. So in fact, Minister Zhou and his wife have not come back much in this small building of the "General Queen". The big guy can naturally be tossed by his temperament.
So as soon as the music was played, the curtains were drawn, Zhou Manna and a few sisters prepared some sodas, beer, and fruits, and people danced to the music. Sensei said that everyone had a good time, and naturally they drank a lot of beer.
Later, I don't know who it was, I felt that the "two steps" were not enjoyable, so I actually proposed to jump the "veneer", and I couldn't help but say that I pulled the lamp.
This time, it was really dark in the house, and Zhou Manna took the initiative to hug Yang Weifan tightly. In order not to let him back down, he still said in his mouth, "It's a shame that you're a big man, so cowardly!"
Yang Weifan's wine was on his head, he couldn't eat it, his anger was surging, and he was bold and impulsive.
But the wine is the color medium, and the face is hugged and shaken. This kind of heterosexual contact and temptation makes it impossible for men in their early twenties to parry.
Somehow he got sick. I don't know when, he and Zhou Manna "jumped" to the bedroom.
Everything that followed fell into place, and this night, he and Zhou Manna tasted the forbidden fruit without a teacher.
The next day, when Yang Weifan woke up, the first thing Zhou Manna said to him was, "I'm your person, if you betray me and find another woman, I'll die." β
Some people say that young people in the 80s have idealistic feelings, especially naΓ―ve and romantic. This is indeed the case.
This kind of moral torment and the binding force of intimidation are of course impossible for Yang Weifan, who did not control his belt.
He didn't dare to express any objections, and honestly left Zhou Manna at her mercy. took a bath, changed clothes, had breakfast, and then returned to the "sea administration" in the car sent to him by Zhou Manna.
But as soon as the "general rear" driver left, he panicked. Because he really never thought of asking Zhou Manna to be his wife and grow old with her for the rest of his life.
He had no intention of rehearsing, and he was even more afraid of seeing people. So he drove a jeep to find Hong Yanwu. He knew Hong Yanwu's brain. The last glimmer of hope is here.
But he was doomed to disappointment. After all, no matter how good Hong Yanwu is, he is not an immortal, and there is no panacea. Hong Yanwu is not a gynecologist in the 21st century, and he has the means to repair that membrane as before.
Therefore, although Hong Yanwu was also shocked into a cold sweat. But there was only one sentence to reply to Yang Weifan.
"No problem, one misstep will become a thousand years of hatred, you can only live with her. β
followed Hong Yanwu to endure the headache and carefully analyze Yang Weifan, so that this kid could recognize the actual situation he was facing in front of him. said that reality does not allow Yang Weifan to have a tendency to regret at all.
There were so many people there that day, and it was certainly not a secret. Not to mention that the Zhou family will not allow it, the Yang family will not allow it, and Yang Weifan's current identity and status are even more not.
What is particularly serious is that once this kind of thing becomes a big problem, it will be a scandal that shocks the whole country, and the fault lies with all the men. When you can get it, you can't clean it up, and no one can save Yang Weifan. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is in a situation from which he will never recover.
No way. If you don't want to marry again, you have to marry. Rationally considered, since this is the case, it is better to behave happily, so as not to have any twists and turns, which will cause the Zhou family to have doubts and doubts.
Seeing Yang Weifan spread out on the chair like a deflated ball, his eyes were full of sadness. Hong Yanwu was a little unbearable, and then he said a few more words.
He said that Zhou Manna's thoughts about Yang Weifan had long been exposed, and this persistence and infatuation made onlookers look a little pitiful. Having said that, for Yang Weifan, it is actually not a loss to be able to find such a beautiful girl who is the right person and loves him deeply.
The only thing that can be worried is that this matter was deliberately planned by Zhou Manna, if that is the case, it will be a bit terrifying.
So Yang Weifan should tell his mother about this as it is. Moody is the one who loves him the most unconditionally, and she will never let her son suffer. Besides, the only one who can compete with Zhou Manna in the future is Moody.
Take another 10,000 steps back and say, it doesn't matter if there is really no way to solve this matter. It is important to marry and remarry, and it is important to protect your reputation first.
As for the days ahead, it's a big deal to make do with perfunctory, and I'm not happy to stay at home and come out. Anyway, Hong Yanwu can guarantee that Yang Weifan will definitely have a chance to get rid of Zhou Manna in the future. But this will take time, and it will take progress and change in legal policies and people's attitudes......
At this point, Yang Weifan's eyes finally returned to flatness. I don't know how much I listened, anyway, he didn't have any unrealistic thoughts, and spit out a sentence as if he was dead.
"Xiao Wu, I understand what you said. I...... I'm not a coward, I'm ready to take all the consequences. β
