――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In the evening, a celebratory dinner was held in the villa, which was attended by everyone, including Cui Muqing and other secretaries, who were also members of the Wei family.

The matter has come to this, and He Chaoqiong and other women have also let go of their prejudices in their hearts.

At least on the surface.

In front of Wei Xiong, even if anyone still has an opinion in their heart, they don't dare to show it, this is authority, and a family should have an authority.

Especially in such a large family.

At the dinner, everyone expressed their goodwill to Li Ruotong. In fact, several of the girls had already known Li Ruotong before this.

It's just not familiar.

Now that everyone has become a family, it is natural to be closer.

Halfway through the dinner, Lin Xueli said happily: "Today Tongtong and I went for a check-up, and the doctor said that Tongtong was pregnant with twins. ”

Twins!

Hearing this, Wei Hongdao and Wei Xiong, who were eating, both had their eyes lit up, and they asked almost in unison, "Really?" ”

Lin Xueli smiled: "Of course it's true. ”

Wei Hongdao looked at Li Ruotong with a smile, and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, well, there have never been twins in the Wei family's hundreds of years of history." ”

Li Ruotong said a little shyly: "I was also surprised. ”

He Chaoqiong and the other women were inevitably envious and jealous when they saw Wei Hongdao so happy. You must know that in normal times, Wei Hongdao is basically moody and invisible.

That is, when I see a few of my grandchildren, I will show a little smile.

So much so that they would feel nervous every time they faced Wei Hongdao. But then again, even Wei Xiong is afraid of Wei Hongdao, how can they not be afraid.

And there is basically no time to say hello three times in a row with joy like this.

Of course, women have always had more thoughts than men, and they also like to compare, and they will be envious of some things, and even jealousy is just human nature.

It's not like there's anything bad about it.

At this time, Xiao Xuanxuan, who was already more than two years old, sat next to Zhao Yazhi and asked in a milky voice: "Mommy, what are twins?" ”

Zhao Yazhi touched Xiao Xuanxuan's hair dotingly, and said with a smile: "It's just that the two of them are exactly the same." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Xuanxuan bit her fingers, tilted her little head, and showed a thoughtful expression on her face, and her cute appearance made people can't help but want to kiss it.

After a while, he asked, "Does Xuanxuan have twins?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the restaurant immediately remembered a burst of laughter, saying that children are always the loveliest angels in the world.

After the dinner,

Wei Xiong came to Li Ruotong's room, looked at the neatly furnished living room, and gently hugged Li Ruotong: "Do you think you are still used to it?" ”

Li Ruotong said angrily: "What do you say? ”

She was stunned all afternoon, not knowing what to do or what she could do. Like a headless fly, completely overwhelmed.

Moreover, she also has opinions about Wei Xiong's private life.

Although she had known for a long time that Wei Xiong's private life must be chaotic, it was only out of her imagination and did not have an intuitive understanding.

Once you enter the lodge, it's different.

Her intuition told her that the relationship between those beautiful maids and Wei Xiong was not simple. What's more, there is also the rule that flips the cards to decide who will serve the bed.

To be honest, she already regretted it a little.

Wei Xiong took Li Ruotong and sat down on the sofa: "It doesn't matter if you don't get used to it, you will slowly get used to it in the future, now your first task is to take care of your body." ”

As he spoke, Wei Xiong also gently stroked Li Ruotong's belly.

Li Ruotong also showed a happy smile on his face, but he quickly disappeared: "Hmph, you still flipped the card, you think you are the emperor." ”

Waterfall Khan!

Wei Xiong smiled slightly embarrassedly: "This method is not what I thought, it was thought by Mommy and Chaoqiong, saying that it was to show fairness." ”

Hearing Wei Xiong say this, Li Ruotong didn't say anything more.

With so many women, there really needs to be a rule, otherwise sooner or later there will be chaos. She just didn't feel used to it if she hadn't experienced it.

……

Li Ruotong is the thirteenth aunt!

This was the entertainment headline of the Oriental Daily on August 17, which revealed that Li Ruotong had officially moved into Tongque Villa a few days ago.

Now the gossip media is excited again.

Its paparazzi attacked everywhere, chasing and intercepting Li Ruotong's family and friends in order to get more useful new information.

At the same time, Wei Xiong's other two rumored girlfriends, Lin Qingxia and Xiao Qiang, were also innocently shot.

Some media raised such a question: Wei Xiong's rumored girlfriend, why can Li Ruotong take the position, but Lin Qingxia and Xiao Qiang cannot?

The media that raised this question is creating the topic.

Obviously, it succeeded, and those gossipy Hong Kong citizens are also curious about why Li Ruotong entered Hong Kong's No. 1 wealthy family.

On beauty,

Lin Qingxia has been competing with Qin Han and Qin Xianglin for more than ten years, and Qiong Yao once said that she has never met a woman comparable to Qingxia.

This shows Lin Qingxia's beauty.

And Xiao Qiang has been famous for her beauty since her debut, and later she was known as 'Taiwan's No. 1 Beauty', and she will not be worse than Li Ruotong.

On fame,

Lin Qingxia has become popular since she debuted in 1973 to shoot Qiong Yao's "Outside the Window".

After coming to Hong Kong, he took a step forward in his career with his wonderful performances in films such as "New Dragon Inn", and he is one of the most well-known Chinese movie stars.

Li Ruotong can't be proportional to it at all.

On feelings,

According to the data obtained by the paparazzi's long-term tracking, the number of times Wei Xiong went to Lin Qingxia's house to spend the night was almost the same as the number of times he went to Li Ruotong's house to spend the night.

As for Xiao Qiang, she also moved from Taiwan to Hong Kong to settle down.

Two days ago, a paparazzi photographed Wei Xiong going to Xiao Qiang's house for the night, and did not leave until 3 pm the next day, staying for almost a whole day.

It can be seen that he loves Xiao Qiang.

Since they are beautiful, famous and emotional, Lin Qingxia and Xiao Qiang will not be worse than Li Ruotong, why is it Li Ruotong who is on top in the end?

Soon, a fierce answer was solved.

A female student from the University of Hong Kong broke the news to "Sing Tao Daily" that Li Ruotong was two months pregnant and was still pregnant with twins.

The girl claimed that Li Ruotong's sister Li Yuting told her personally.

Now the media is lively again.

This is no ordinary pregnancy. As a result, the headlines of the entertainment pages of almost all newspapers were the news that Li Ruotong was pregnant with twins.

……

Li Ruotong's original residence, since Li Ruotong moved to Tongque Villa, Li Chengjian, Zhou Lan and Li Yuting have moved here.

In the past, the reason why Li Chengjian rejected Li Ruotong's kindness was because he did not recognize Wei Xiong.

Now that the wood is in the boat, it would be too hypocritical for him to be stubborn again. Although before moving here, he was also resistant.

Because he didn't want others to say that he took advantage of Wei Xiong.

But Li Ruotong's words made him change his attention - if you still live in the original house, what will others think of your son-in-law?

So they moved.

When he saw the report in "Sing Tao Daily", Li Chengjian immediately angrily handed Li Yuting (on summer vacation) in front of him:

Throwing the newspaper away: "Is it really what you said?" ”

Li Yuting glanced at the newspaper on the table and said, "She...... She was a good friend of mine, and I didn't expect her to ......."

Li Chengjian stood up suddenly: "I didn't expect it? I didn't think I could talk nonsense? ”

Li Yuting, who rarely saw her father so angry, was so frightened that her eyes suddenly turned red, in fact, her heart was also full of grievances of being betrayed by her good friend.

Zhou Lan next to her saw it and hurriedly hit the rice balls: "Okay, I've said everything, no matter how much I scold, I can't change it." ”

Li Chengjian said angrily: "It's a good thing that Tongtong is pregnant with twins, but what kind of virtue is the media in Hong Kong, don't you know?" ”

"Being hyped up like this by them, maybe something will come out."

Zhou Lan thought about it, it was indeed the case.

Calling the white black and the black white white has always been a specialty of some Hong Kong media: "So what should we do now?" ”

"Hmph, what else can I do?"

Saying that, Li Chengjian sat down and said in a deep voice to Li Yuting: "I don't know my heart if I know people, I don't know my heart, and I am not allowed to tell outsiders about your sister casually in the future." ”

"Got it."

……

Just when Li Ruotong married into the Wei family was in an uproar,

The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling, jointly published by Tiantian Publishing House, a subsidiary of Tiantian Newspaper Group, Random House in the United States and Cambridge University Press in the United Kingdom, was launched.

The novel is bilingual in Chinese and English,

It is listed in more than a dozen countries and regions such as Hong Kong, the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, the Federal Republic of Germany and Australia.

There was a buying spree.

In less than three days, the first 5 million copies were sold out, and the three publishers had to work overtime to print them.

As of November 30.

That is, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" has been on the market for more than three months, and the three publishing houses have reprinted a total of five editions, with a total sales of more than 30 million copies.

This is undoubtedly a rather scary number.

You must know that the world's second-best-selling inspirational book "The Weakness of Human Nature" written by Dale Carnegie has only sold more than 60 million copies so far.

And that's the total sales volume for decades.

There are three main reasons why this relatively niche novel has achieved such great success: first, the early publicity.

Publicity began as early as a month before the novel was released.

And the investment is quite large

Major stores and bookstores in the United Kingdom, France, the United States, Australia and other countries and regions have put up posters and offered reservations.

The second is Wei Xiong's personal fame.

Although Wei Xiong had also released two novels before this, whether it was "Flower Thousand Bone" or "Zhu Xian", they were both casual novels.

Neither of them is very literary.

Moreover, the distribution area is mainly limited to Southeast Asia. But "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is different, this is a novel with real connotation and quality.

It is quite readable.

And it is distributed globally, and the vast majority of foreigners are coming into contact with Wei Xiong's novels for the first time, so there is naturally a sense of freshness.

There is also the fact that many people who buy novels buy books back not to read them, but to collect them.

Finally, two weeks after its release, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" was published by the People's Publishing House and began to be sold in bookstores in shopping malls on the mainland.

Of the 30 million sales, 5 million came from the mainland market.

Of course, that's all for later.

Since the official release of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" on August 24, it has immediately set off a wave in the international literary and historical circles.

This is especially true in the private sector.

Since the end of World War II, the brutality of the European battlefield, the fascist persecution of Jews, and so on, have been repeatedly mentioned in various media.

Today, it is known all over the world.

However, the crimes committed by the Japanese on Chinese soil during World War II are little known and rarely appear in the international mainstream media.

Not even some historians, let alone ordinary people, are not clear.

And "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is in the form of a novel, leading readers into that cruel era to understand what happened back then.

Many Westerners only know that-

It turns out that during World War II, the horrors of the Japanese were not much worse than those of the Germans, who once slaughtered tens of thousands of Jews in concentration camps at one time.

The Japanese also slaughtered 300,000 people in Nanjing within a few days.

The Germans slaughtered nearly 6 million Jews; And millions of civilians died directly under the butcher's knife of the Japanese in the War of Resistance Against Japan.

It is worth mentioning that the listing of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" was protested by some right-wingers in Japan.

Their shameless shouting novels about the Nanjing Massacre and about the persecution of Chinese by Japanese soldiers were all fabricated by Wei Xiong.

Demand to stop selling "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".

Later, a Japanese bookstore selling "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" was smashed, and a clerk was seriously injured.

The incident was first exposed by TV Asahi and the Asahi Shimbun.

It immediately attracted a lot of attention, and most Japanese people thought that even if the description of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" was false, it should not be done.

This is too extreme.

Two days later, TV Asahi aired an interview with four veterans of the Nanjing War on the news at 7 p.m. every night.

In the interview, four veterans recounted the Nanjing War (Battle of Nanjing).

Including the fierce offensive and defensive battles of both sides and the massacre of the city in order to retaliate for the heavy casualties caused by the Nationalist army to the Japanese army after entering the city.

All four veterans had guilt-filled faces.

One even knelt down in front of the camera and cried bitterly. He also said that he would go to Nanjing and ask those who survived to plead guilty.

This interview undoubtedly testifies to the description in "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".

In response to the extreme behavior of Japanese right-wingers, Wei Xiong was interviewed by the New York Times on the third day after the incident.

At the beginning of the interview, Wei Xiong strongly condemned the smashing and expressed condolences to the injured.

Referring to some people's doubts about the authenticity of the novel's description, Wei Xiong said: Before writing this novel, I consulted a lot of information.

Some of the data may be a little different, but not much.

If you are interested, you can also find relevant materials and photos in some libraries in the United States, where there were many foreigners who witnessed it.

Including journalists.

In fact, shortly after the massacre, five American journalists reported on the massacre, and several newspapers published their stories.

For example, the Chicago Daily News and the Daily Mail.

And many of the Japanese soldiers who participated in the massacre are still alive, and I believe that many of them will be willing to testify if necessary.

Of course, I'm not here to preach hatred.

Instead, let everyone take history as a warning and not repeat the mistakes of the past, because war cannot bring anything good to mankind except destruction.

During the interview, Wei Xiong also took the opportunity to promote "Beautiful Life"

Here's what he said: In the middle of last year, I wrote a play about the Holocaust called "Life is Beautiful."

The film has already been filmed and will participate in the Hong Kong International Film Festival next month.

After writing the script, I suddenly thought of the question that even children knew about the fascist massacre of Jews in World War II.

However, the crimes committed by the Japanese fascists in China are rarely known internationally.

So after consulting a lot of information, I wrote the novel "The Twelve Hairpins of Jinling", which was called Jinling in ancient China.

In addition, the script based on the novel has also been written, and filming will start next year.

Two days after Mr. Wei's interview, The New York Times ran a quarter-length story on its third page.

Titled: Forgotten History!

The report takes the novel "The Twelve Hairpins of Jinling" as the starting point, and objectively introduces the crimes committed by Japanese soldiers on the Chinese battlefield in World War II.

The focus is on the Nanjing Massacre.

In order to reflect objectivity and truthfulness, the report quoted the relevant report made by the Chicago Daily News after the Nanjing Massacre.

He also interviewed one of the five journalists who refused to evacuate at the time, who is still alive.

The old man, who is nearly 90 years old, told reporters in a trembling voice what he saw and heard in Nanjing more than 50 years ago.

In the end, I swear by my faith that what I say is true.

In addition, the report also cited the Asahi Shimbun newspaper with interviews with four Japanese veterans who participated in the Nanjing Massacre.

This report has attracted a lot of attention in the United States.

Of course, there are also those who disagree, not because they doubt the veracity of the report, but because they have a sense of superiority.

To put it bluntly, it is racism.

There are many such people in the white world, who believe that the white race is the best race in the world and deserves all the preferential treatment.

The lives and deaths of other races are not what they care about.

Even in the 20s of the 21st century, when the mind was more open-minded and globalization deepened, racial discrimination was still widespread.

In the United States, every once in a while, white police officers shoot black people.

It wasn't because the black man who was shot broke the law that it happened, it was because the white cop had a preconceived belief that they were in danger and fired it.

And these so-called dangers are nothing more than blacks taking two steps forward, or looking down for something.

Although the police have the power to anticipate danger and make decisions on the fly when enforcing the law, why do similar shootings rarely happen to white people?

It comes down to a disregard for black lives.
