The next day, before dawn, Guan Zhuofan got up, served by Xiaorui, dressed, washed and ate breakfast, and then boarded the car into the palace.

The two sisters-in-law, Bai and Ming, did not show up.

It's the norm. Since Guan Zhuofan entered the military aircraft department, he no longer has the blessing of sleeping in bed in the morning -- the military plane's "wake" is the first "wake" of the whole day, and he must rush into the palace early in the morning. If, the night before, he slept in the same bed with Bai or Ming, or Bai and Ming, then dressing, washing, eating, and eating breakfast were naturally served by two sisters-in-law; If he slept alone like last night, there would be no need for the two sisters-in-law to get up early in the morning and toss with him.

There are a lot of things going on today, and I ate in the small kitchen at the military plane for lunch, and when I left the palace, it was almost uncorrect. Immediately afterwards, the "advisory committee" of Ginkgo Hutong was held, and two meetings were held in succession. By the time I got back to Wicker Alley, it was getting late.

After entering the second gate, only the Ming family came out to greet him with the maid, and Guan Zhuofan's heart couldn't help but sink slightly.

After the meal was served, there was still no trace of the Bai family, and the maid came to report: Mrs. said, she has little appetite and is not hungry, please use it first.

Ominous!

At the dinner table, looking at the emptiness, Ming said in a low voice: "I don't know what's going on today?" My sister has been preoccupied all day, I asked her, but she said nothing, just a little uncomfortable. I asked someone to call a doctor, and she said no, just take a break. ”

After a pause, his voice was lowered: "However, my sister's eyes are red and swollen, and I must have cried several times behind my back." ”

Guan Zhuofan was stunned.

This meal was used ruthlessly. Delicious cuisine. The taste is the same as chewing wax.

On the surface. Guan Zhuofan's expression was as usual, but the Ming family could see that he knew the reason for the Bai family's condition. Ming really wanted to ask for an understanding, but Guan Zhuofan didn't pick this topic, and she didn't dare to take the initiative to ask. Sneaking a look at Guan Zhuofan's expression, Ming's mouth opened several times. He swallowed the words that came to his lips again.

The two men didn't mention it again.

After the meal, it was already the time to hold the lamp, Guan Zhuofan came to the outside of Bai's house, and the light was not yet lit in the house. He knocked lightly on the door: "Shuangshuang, it's me." ”

After a long while, there was a "squeak" and the door opened.

By the light of the lantern hanging under the eaves outside the house, at a glance, Guan Zhuofan had clearly seen Bai's description, and his heart immediately shrank suddenly.

Bai's eyes. It is swollen like walnuts and its hair is unkempt. Overnight, the whole person seemed to lose weight.

This description has never been seen before.

Bai Shi smiled reluctantly, and the expression on his face became more and more sad.

Guan Zhuofan's heart seemed to have been inserted by a small knife, and then he slashed it hard.

He opened his arms and took Bai into his arms.

Bai Shi exclaimed softly: "The door ...... Haven't closed the ...... yet."

Guan Zhuofan freed up one hand, closed the door, and hugged the Bai family again.

"Shuangshuang, I'm sorry, Xiao Yun, I didn't think about it, so I called you ......"

Before he finished speaking, Bai Shi let out a "wow", cried, choked up and said, "It's me...... I'm sorry for you...... But, however, I really ...... I can't bear her...... What should I do......"

"Don't say it again," Guan Zhuofan kissed her lightly on the eyelids, "This matter, just because I never mentioned it to you, let's do the same, don't put this matter in our hearts anymore - ten, ten, okay?" ”

Bai's cry lowered: "I, I'm sorry for your ......"

"No, it's me, right--alas, don't say such things, we are a family, flesh and blood, who can we talk about who is sorry for whom? It's my fault - uh, don't mention it anymore, as I just said - let's just do the same, don't take this to heart anymore, okay? ”

After a moment of silence, Bai replied in a low voice, "Good ......"

Entering the study, Guan Zhuofan fell onto the "sofa chair" and sighed long.

Bai Shi burst into tears and smiled, but his state of mind was extremely depressed.

This is a rare setback since he crossed over, and this setback was given to him by the people closest to him.

Why did Guan Zhuofan put Xiao Yun in this small international student program?

He claimed to Bai, "None of my words are fooling you", but those fanciful words still have the element of "fooling".

At this stage, Kwan Zhuofan has no plans to carry out large-scale women's education. In fact, not to mention in China, even in Europe and the United States, in the middle of the nineteenth century, women's education was not widespread. For example, although there are already a certain number of girls' schools in the United States, the large-scale development of girls' schools in the United States only began in the late nineteenth century.

There is such a thing as a co-educational school, at this time, there is no zài in the whole world.

Guan Zhuofan will not do that kind of thing that pulls out seedlings to help grow.

At this stage, even if a woman comes out to do things and holds middle and senior positions in her service organization, it is extremely unlikely, let alone in the government department. Of course, if Xiao Yun goes abroad and returns to China after graduation, it will be more than ten years later, at that time, no one can say what kind of development China has reached, and it is not ruled out that Guan Zhuofan's flickering will become a fact.

At this stage, it is not realistic for women to enter the government, enterprises, and institutions and hold management positions, but the public opinion of "women studying and doing things" must be created now, because "women come out to do things" is an imminent matter.

The first one who asked "women to come out and do things" was the textile factory.

In the initial stage of industrialization, the accumulation of primitive accumulation, the textile industry is the only way, not to mention, China still has the big killer of silk.

Textile mills need a large number of female workers.

These future women workers are still staying at home, in their home workshops, and they have ideas to "liberate" them from their homes and family workshops.

This is a very large article, and it is by no means an understatement of a few words, and there is no trace of warmth in it—it must be a death.

If this matter is to be successful, two conditions are indispensable, one is that women should let go, and the other is that everyone must accept the concept of "women come out to do things".

Guan Zhuofan's wishful thinking is to use Xiaoyun as a banner of "women reading and doing things".

First, Xiao Yun is not the daughter of a poor family, she is the sister-in-law of Xuanjun Wang and Mrs. Zhenguo.

Second, the young student went abroad to the United States to run it for King Xuanjun - King Xuanjun couldn't send his sister to jump into the fire pit, right? So, this thing must be a good thing! That is to say, Xiao Yun's participation in the Young International Student Program is also of great help to the program itself.

Guan Zhuofan made an appointment with Libin, and one person was responsible for finding a girl, one flag and one man, to join the small international student program. Guan Zhuofan is in charge, naturally on the side of the flag man.

The abacus played well, alas, alas!

Libin's side, there are no eyebrows, and if there is nothing after all, there is not a single girl in this little international student plan.

Guan Zhuofan was feeling sorry for himself, and Xiaorui came in for tea.

Looking at her slender and agile figure, Guan Zhuofan's heart suddenly jumped: she is not ...... Hey, why didn't I think of that?

His mind was spinning rapidly.
