Chapter 202: Returning to the People on a Snowy Night
The Great Wall and Tianmen are both iconic buildings and tourist attractions in Yanjing.
At 4:50 a.m. on the 1st, 11th, and 21st of every month, the national anthem will be played and a flag-raising ceremony will be held.
In the end, the song "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" was chosen.
This song is the theme song of the hit drama "Hero Huo Yuanjia" in the 80s of the last century, and it is very consistent with the theme of Huo Yuanjia.
Zhang Fan deeply remembers that he also watched this TV series when he was a child, and he is even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for this theme song.
Most of the guests who come to travel are born in the 80s, standing on the Great Wall at this time, listening to familiar music, naturally their hearts are full of excitement and awe, until the end of the music.
……
The music ended, and the bustle on the Great Wall resumed.
Everyone was still talking, but the topic was more about the history of the Great Wall.
History is an important part of a country's culture, and a country without history has no soul, so both men and women, young and old, have a strong interest in history.
Qiuqiu stroked the artillery fire scars on the stone platform of the Great Wall, and suddenly raised his head and asked, "Baba, what's the matter with these scars?"
Zhang Fan smiled and said, "That's the traces of war, do you want to hear it?"
"Yes. Qiuqiu opened his big curious eyes and agreed.
"Okay, Daddy told you. Zhang Fan said with a smile: "The Great Wall was cast in the Qin Dynasty, originally used to defend against foreign enemies, as long as there is the Great Wall, it is difficult for foreign enemies to attack until the end ......of the Qing Dynasty."
Zhang Fan and Qiuqiu talked about the Eight-Nation Alliance, the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the founding of the Republic of China, and the final War of Resistance Against Japan.
Qiuqiu listened very carefully, sometimes clenching his small fists in anger, and sometimes shouting excitedly.
Tang Qinghe didn't speak the whole time, but looked at the happy scene in front of her with complicated eyes, I don't know why, she felt very sad and moved.
"Baba, I want to go to the Old Summer Palace to see. Qiuqiu said.
The Old Summer Palace is the biggest loss in China, the former Old Summer Palace, treasured all kinds of treasures, antique, but after a burning and looting, the Old Summer Palace only left the ruins and broken walls.
As long as you are a Chinese person, you will go to the Old Summer Palace to see, to see the shocking ruins, and not to forget the national shame.
"Okay, Baba will take you to the Old Summer Palace. Zhang Fan touched Qiuqiu's head and said.
He knew that after listening to his words, Qiuqiu's mind had been deeply imprinted with that singing and crying history.
This history should not be forgotten, but remembered.
Generally, when children are seven or eight years old, or ninety years old, parents will tell their children about that tragic history, but Zhang Fan told Qiuqiu in advance, he doesn't know whether this matter is good or bad.
After getting off the Great Wall, Zhang Fan and Tang Qinghe took Qiuqiu to the Old Summer Palace.
The Old Summer Palace is located in the northwest suburbs of Yanjing, adjacent to the Summer Palace.
Facing him was a charred tree root, the traces of the fire were still visible, followed by several ruins and ruins.
Qiuqiu stood in front of the ruins without saying a word, and he didn't know what he was thinking, Zhang Fan and Tang Qinghe accompanied Qiuqiu left and right
"The child is still so young, is it really okay to tell her this?" Tang Qinghe glanced at the silent Qiuqiu worriedly and asked.
"If there is something she should know, she must know. Zhang Fan also looked at Qiuqiu and said, but he was sighing softly in his heart.
This is the gap between China and the West......
History is history, in the West, some parents instill the knowledge of history in their children from an early age, but in Huaxia, it is not taught until the teenage years, from the age of five or six to adolescence, which is the easiest time to establish values.
After this stage, the three views have been finalized, and then taught, although the children will remember, but they will not be imprinted in their hearts, at best, they will only recite it like homework, is this useful?
"When are you going to start teaching us?" Skipping the topic directly, Zhang Fan guided the topic to the training.
Tang Qinghe pondered for a while, and said: "In a few days, you have just arrived in Yanjing, you need an environment to adapt to, you can play first in a few days, but in a few days, we will start classes, I have more than 40 students under me, and there are currently 20 students who have been released, which means that there are more than 20 students who want to take classes with you." ”
Zhang Fan thought about it, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Then Qiuqiu and I are transfer students?"
"Sort of. Tang Qinghe smiled and said, "So come on, there is still an assessment." ”
"Yes. Zhang Fan smiled slightly, not caring.
After returning to the hotel, Qiuqiu was sullen and didn't say a word, and she wasn't even interested in playing with Dabai.
Looking at Qiuqiu, who was not interested, Zhang Fan sighed, he knew that Qiuqiu was affected by that cruel history.
But this will establish a national concept in her heart, rather than just rote memorization of those histories, history and humanities, which requires a deep understanding of it.
……
It was night, and the weather changed suddenly, sunny to heavy rain, and the raindrops knocked on the glass, making a crackling noise.
The sky was gray, as if covered with a shabby gray rag, and pedestrians walked on the road with umbrellas, and their umbrellas were rattled.
It was sleet, which made people wonder, this is only October, could it be that this year's winter came earlier?
Jiang Yilin sat in the café, leisurely drinking latte, looking at the sleet outside, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
At this time, a man came to Jiang Yilin, it was Qin Xudong.
"It's raining too much, and there's snow, and you can call me out in this kind of weather, it's true love. Qin Xudong smiled and wiped the rain on his body with a tissue and said.
"Poor mouth. Jiang Yilin glanced at Qin Xudong with a variety of charms, then took out a document and handed it to Qin Xudong: "Give it." ”
"What is this?" Qin Xudong planned to take it apart and take a look, but was stopped by Jiang Yilin, she smiled mysteriously, and said: "Don't be in a hurry to open it first, this is not for you, it is for your eldest brother Qin Dongsheng, by the way, help me pass a word, just say that this is a small gift from Jiang Xiaomei to Dongsheng's eldest brother, I believe she will like it." ”
"Okay. ”
Qin Xudong agreed with a smile, picked up the document and left.
The moment he turned around, the expression on his face disappeared without a trace.
Back in the car, he carefully opened the documents and looked at them carefully.
Looking at it, his face changed, and soon, sweat the size of a bean appeared on his forehead.
He hurriedly put the paper inside in the bag and drove home.
There are many third generations of the Qin family, and the branches are dense, so some juniors do not all live in the Qin family's mansion, but have their own residences.
Crunch –
He parked his car in a place called "Garden".
This is the name of a mansion complex, which is not for sale, but privately owned.
Here, it is Qin Dongsheng's residence.
When Qin Xudong got out of the car, the rain did not change, but the snow was heavy, and thin ice appeared on the ground.
He pushed the door and entered, and found an elegant and extraordinary young man sitting on the sofa, holding a book in his hand and looking at it, a few years older than Qin Xudong, with an elegant and deep temperament all over his body.
"Xudong, why do you have time to come to me today?" Qin Dongsheng closed the book, stood up with a smile, and asked.
"Brother Dongsheng, I'm here to deliver something. Qin Xudong said respectfully: "Jiang Xiaomei of the Jiang family asked me to give you something, and asked me to pass on a word, this is a small gift from Jiang Xiaomei to Brother Dongsheng, I hope Brother Dongsheng likes it." ”
"Oh, what kind of gift?" Qin Dongsheng was interested, and a smile appeared on his face.
Qin Xudong handed the document to Qin Dongsheng, Qin Dongsheng took it apart and looked at it, and when he looked at it, he smiled.
"Xudong, you came at the right time. Qin Dongsheng smiled and invited Qin Xudong in, pointed to the heavy rain and snow outside, and said: "There seems to be no autumn this year, the early winter comes very early, it is only October, and it is sleet, this kind of weather is most suitable for sitting at home to cook wine and recite books." Coincidentally, I read "The Master of Furong Mountain in the Snow". ”
"The mountains are far away at dusk, and the white houses are poor in the cold. Chaimen heard the dog barking, and returned to the people on a snowy night. Tonight, a distinguished guest has come to Yanjing. Qin Dongsheng said with a smile.
Yanjing Airport.
It was windy and snowy, and it was difficult to walk.
A woman of peerless elegance stepped on sharp high heels, dragged her suitcase, and slowly stepped off the plane.
An old man held an umbrella for her, and the wind blew her long hair behind her.
She looked at the wind and rain all over the city with a light smile on her face, and everywhere she passed, pedestrians retreated.
