Chapter 19: Waves
Shen Chuyun felt a chill on her body, she knew that the cause she advocated was a long and tortuous road, and she only knew what the difficulty was when she really understood the details. After calming down for a long time, he shrugged his shoulders and replied: "Naturally, it is a crooked reason, but to correct the crooked reason, it takes countless people to pay the effort for it, and even the price of blood. ”
Bai Yuanshan couldn't help nodding secretly when he heard this, and said, "The two of you feel unreasonable, I understand." But there is no way, the revision of a bill does not happen overnight. He smiled again, exhorting others, and seemed to encourage himself, "Of course, you shouldn't despair completely." At least people like us are aware of injustice, and the more we understand, the more we should take responsibility, and we should not just complain, but should be more active in changing the status quo with action. ”
Shen Chuyun pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, then buried his head between his hands. She tried hard to hope that she would be strong in the face of difficulties, but no matter how hard she tried, she was just an ordinary body, and she was not far away.
Her father, who raised her, did not support her quest for freedom, and even stumbled harshly over it. On this point, she has not yet come out completely. And the divorce case is talking about it, and it talks about such a height. Onlookers naturally felt that Bai Yuanshan's words were exciting, but Shen Chuyun, who was in the whirlpool, only felt breathless. With so many things on her shoulders and more fingering in the future, it is really beyond her imagination and ability to bear.
In her ears, Teresa Teng seemed to be still helping to consult the legal process, and Bai Yuanshan also had to answer questions. As the two of them spoke, they negotiated the negotiations to be made and the documents to be submitted in the next few days.
Shen Chuyun felt that this was not bad, at this time, she was thinking that someone would make a decision for her in a big way, and she could also avoid thinking too much.
###
Considering that there was already a plan to go to court, it was not suitable to stay in a room at the Six Nations Hotel. Shen Chuyun was anxious to rent a house, and he didn't have time to take a closer look, but he heard that there was a suitable independent courtyard in Brickta Hutong, so he paid half a year's rent in the name of Teresa Teng. The landlord is a kind widowed old lady who lives next door to this yard, and the rented yard turned out to be where her second son's family lived, and this year she found an errand in Shanghai, and the house was vacant. In these years, it is difficult to find a job, and the landlord and the old lady's other children work in a university in the suburbs, and sometimes they hardly return to the city when they are busy, and a young daughter goes abroad to study. Keep the house, not only do you not have any income, but you also have to add someone to take care of it, so it's good to rent it out.
The old lady's surname was cold, but her heart was very hot, she heard that it was a fashionable lady who rented it for a studio, and specially cleaned up the house.
Shen Chuyun divided the main room into a living room and a bedroom, the east wing room was used as a study, and the west side was used as a kitchen. Although many things are still left in the Han family and have not been retrieved, I am still full of expectations when I think that I can have my own home after surviving this gust of wind, frost, rain and snow.
Because it was Teresa Teng who came forward to negotiate, she knew more about the layout of the house, and introduced it to the guest: "According to your meaning, it is good to have a simple and comfortable layout." In the future, when you are independent, you will have more time to meet guests, so I think this living room will be a little more deserted. Since you are not sure how much money you have in your pocket, I, the great painter of the future, would be willing to give generously and hang my pearl-covered paintings in your living room. In such a Chinese-style courtyard, some Western-style paintings are displayed, which can be regarded as a combination of Chinese and foreign. The joke made him embarrassed, so he stuck out his tongue with a red face.
Shen Chuyun raised his hand and scratched the bridge of her tall nose, and replied with a smile: "Then I won't make a fortune in the future." ”
Teresa Teng laughed and teased: "People are talking to you about art, but you are talking about making a fortune, and it seems that you are also a layman." ”
The driver ran in and called "Miss" to Teresa Teng, and then today's evening newspaper was delivered.
Shen Chuyun saw that there were beads of sweat on the driver's forehead, and he knew that it was a trivial matter to be reported in the newspaper, so he also leaned his head to look. I saw that it was a tabloid, and the front page headline was written in special words "The virtuous couple turned against each other, and the strong woman cried", and then the small title wrote "The marriage of the family knows how many secrets to be solved".
For this, Shen Chuyun is prepared, Bai Yuanshan has long reminded that divorce proceedings are still very rare in China, and a considerable part of the office staff involved in them do not have professional quality, and it is very possible to leak the news.
On the one hand, the lawsuit was carried out in an orderly manner, and when the news was reported, it was the Han family who was passive. But when he thought of the daily meeting of the Women's Promotion Association tomorrow, Shen Chuyun couldn't help but be a little worried, whether the reporters would go to chase and intercept it, affecting the normal meeting process.
Teresa Teng persuaded her that it was useless to think too much, and that she would act tomorrow.
###
The next day, Teresa Teng personally drove Shen Chuyun to the venue an hour ahead of schedule to avoid the reporter's camera.
The members of the promotion association arrived one after another, because Teresa Teng had only participated in the newspaper and had never joined the organization, it was probably inconvenient to stay and attend the meeting, so she returned to the car and waited.
Mrs. Yao stepped forward and pulled Shen Chuyun aside, and said, "Mr. Shen, do you think someone is spreading unfounded words and trying to hinder our cause?" ”
Shen Chuyun smiled awkwardly and replied, "I'm sorry, if I had known that someone would sell news to the newspaper, I should have announced it first, or at least told you first, so that everyone would not be so passive." ”
"It's true?" Mrs. Yao's eyebrows on both sides were almost connected into a straight line, and she was stunned for a long time before she muttered, as if complaining, "Why did you choose this moment?" The next team is about to vote, and making such a negative news is not only bad for you, but our entire association has no time to discuss the rhetoric of the outside world. And the new voice......"
Sure enough, listening to these words, Shen Chuyun, who was originally optimistic about being the first choice of the next president, was probably eliminated first.
Mrs. Yao is actually not a complete snob, and the position of president should be distracted, focusing on participating in women's progressive affairs, rather than becoming the object of scandal.
Shen Chuyun bowed politely and said: "Don't pick this juncture, I really have to choose the next team, if I am fortunate enough to be trusted by everyone to be the president, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to face public opinion." That way, you and a few vice presidents will be able to study and study in detail. As for the final decision, I have no complaints. At such a cusp, I am also embarrassed by the heavy responsibility, and it is absolutely not my wish to drag all comrades into irrelevant private matters together. ”
At this point, Mrs. Yao didn't need to say any more. Shen Chuyun himself can understand that if such a thing happens, he is no longer suitable to be a leader, so it is best.
It's just that I'm afraid that she will blatantly give the Han family no one, even if she takes the initiative to give way, it is difficult to ensure that it will not affect the work of the Women's Promotion Association. You must know that all of these gatherings and speeches do not require the government to provide venues and procedural conveniences. In the past, as soon as everyone heard that it was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Foreign Minister's Office who came forward to do business, they were naturally unimpeded. In the future, even if the elder doesn't speak, there are villains below who want to speculate on his likes and dislikes.
Today's meeting seems to have changed its tone because of the big news that Shen Chuyun shook the capital. Many people didn't have time to discuss affairs, but focused on observing Shen Chuyun's state. There are even some older ones who show a coldness that they have never felt before.
Shen Chuyun pretended not to see it, looked down at the charter and thought secretly, the country is the time of change, even if it is a new trend of thought, there are still many half-new people inside, and this step of hers seems to be a big step. Thinking about it like this, I don't care about the cold eyes of these people's different hearts.
After the meeting ended, everyone walked out, but after a while, they turned back, and one of them shouted in the crowd: "There are reporters outside, there are front doors, back doors, and side doors, how can you go?" ”
This question was aimed at Shen Chuyun. Although she was used to being noticed, this was the first time she felt some dissatisfaction hidden in everyone's eyes, and her face turned red all of a sudden.
Naturally, everyone looked at Mrs. Yao and asked her to come up with an idea.
Mrs. Yao said quickly: "Chu Yun, there is no way to prepare for it. The big guys are still here, so they can't all wait here. ”
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience." Shen Chuyun bowed deeply ninety degrees, raised his head to meet the questioning or disdainful gaze, and slowly walked out.
As soon as the door opened, accompanied by a few bangs of photographs, reporters rushed up, firmly surrounded Shen Chuyun in the middle, and asked various questions with long guns and short guns, but they couldn't hear a word clearly.
Shen Chuyun's heart fluttered, his cheeks blushed before he spoke, and he silently recited the sentence "Be brave", and then raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "I think what you want to ask is just to verify the rumors in the newspaper yesterday, so I won't bother you to ask them one by one, let me make a unified response." Speaking of this, he paused slightly, took a sharp breath, tried to adjust his facial expression, squeezed out a trace of an official and decent smile, and slowed down his speech a lot in order to avoid typos or imperfect expressions, "My encounter with Mr. Han Zhongqiu is completely following the old-style marriage. I also used my own example to verify that the probability of failure in old-style marriages is very high. To this day, I can say that I don't think it's that unexpected. I hope that my failure will be the last old-style tragedy in China. I also hope that starting from me, more women can break free from the shackles of the wrong era and the wrong concept of marriage. It was the backward mind that made the mistake, not me, nor Mr. Han. I know that public opinion will not support my decision this time. But no amount of vicious words can stop the triumphant song of equality between men and women and freedom of marriage! Thank you for your attention, and I won't be able to talk about other issues for the time being. Then, with a deep bow, "Let's make way for everyone, at least let the irrelevant people go first." ”
As soon as this remark came out, although many people in the reporter group still refused to give up, a few personable people nodded in agreement, and gradually gave way to the way that could pass people.
Because when Shen Chuyun came out of the gate, the reporters who were blocking the side and back all rushed to the front when they heard the news, and the members of the Women's Promotion Association had already gone out smoothly.
