Chapter 291: June Day Four
Chapter subtitled: A Midsummer Night in the Great Corrupt Country
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The rain has stopped.
At this time, there is a waning moon in the sky, and there is a fog-locked building on the ground. (Author's note: This day is 26 in the lunar calendar, so it is the waning moon.) οΌ
The air is always fresher after a rain, and the air in this garden is at least better than a ballroom filled with wine, smoke, aroma and popularity.
Lin Huiyin stood in the corridor, greedily breathing a few breaths of fresh air, but he couldn't get uplifted in his heart, but felt a little sad inexplicably.
The so-called family has a scripture that is difficult to read.
From an outsider's point of view, this beautiful girl who is in the twenty-eighth year of her infinite youth has the favor of her father, and specially brought her to Europe to broaden her horizons, which is 99.99 compared to the Republic of China...... 99% of women are stronger.
However, her early family life was not very happy.
Her mother He Xueyuan is indeed Lin Changmin's main room, but it is a continuation, and it is a not so favored continuation.
He Xueyuan gave birth to a boy and two girls, but only Lin Huiyin survived.
There are three so-called unfilial pieties, and no queen is greater. He Xueyuan has no hope of passing on his succession, and Lin Changmin's remarriage is really expected. After ten years of marriage, He Xueyuan ushered in a "younger sister" - Cheng Guilin, a Shanghai woman, and she had to give her husband to Cheng Guilin.
It's a pity that Cheng Guilin almost snatched He Xueyuan's husband away.
Cheng Guilin's culture is not high, but after the edification of the customs of the magic capital, the words "well-behaved and clever" are really in line with her, plus she is young and able to give birth, and she has given birth to several sons in a row, and the whole family is happy.
It's just that Lin Changmin is a person who doesn't know how to hide his joy. He has a nickname, called "Guilin Yizhi Room Master", this name is obviously derived from the three words "Cheng Guilin". Lin Changmin lives in the "Guilin One Branch Room" and is happy.
Lin Huiyin and He Xueyuan were driven to the backyard and lived in a small house. Since then, the front yard has been happy, and the back yard is bleak. The depressed image of her mother left an indelible impression on Lin Huiyin.
With his father on one side and his mother on the other, Lin Huiyin is sandwiched in the middle, and the entanglement of feelings can be imagined.
When Liang Congjie recalled his mother Lin Huiyin, he said: She loves her father, but she hates his ruthlessness to her mother; She loves her mother, but she hates her for not being angry; She loved several half-siblings with the sincere feelings of her eldest sister, but the distorted interpersonal relationships in that semi-feudal family deeply hurt her spiritually.
Of course, she still has the pursuit of talent at the moment.
In any case, Xu Zhimo meets the definition of "rich and handsome", plus he is still a very talented rich and handsome.
Love is naturally sweet, but there is also bitterness, but this rich and handsome woman is a married woman.
Even if a hundred years later is the material age of laughing at poverty and not prostitution, being a junior is a good thing to say. Not to mention that it is now 1921.
Her father, Lin Changmin, was very open to this matter, not only did he not stop them, but he was very relieved to run to the European continent alone and throw his seventeen-year-old daughter in England.
Of course, Lin Changmin and Xu Zhimo pretending to be a couple to write love letters to each other, our Master Yuan doesn't know how to evaluate it.
However, it is obvious that Lin Huiyin must be under pressure from external public opinion and his own heart.
Just as she was leaning against the pillar and thinking about her girl's thoughts, another girl appeared beside her.
This little foreign woman with brown hair is about the same age as her, and she is quite cute. With delicate facial features and smart eyebrows, there is a sense of aura and anger when you look at it, which makes people like it.
However, she now has a small face, looking angry, and muttering: "Bad boss!" Big pervert! Stinky man! Rotten drunk! Old smoking gun! β¦β¦β
"Oops!" She finally noticed Lin Huiyin, who was covered by a pillar, and was not only startled but also a little embarrassed.
Lin Huiyin, who also felt embarrassed, had no choice but to nod to the visitor, said "GOOD EVENING", and turned around to go back to the dance hall.
"I said......" Master Yuan's female secretary suddenly spoke, "You better not go in." That Chinese guy is in Zhuangbility again......"
"Ah, I'm sorry." Miss Morman, who was aware of the other race, spat out her tongue and apologized, "I said that Chinese." β
Lin Huiyin, who has walked around Europe, is also a little used to it, and she is as smart as she guessed that the "Chinese Yankee" is the Chinese who treats her like nothing.
"It's okay. But......" the girl couldn't help but wonder curiously, "What is Zhuangbility?" β
"Zhuangbility is ...... Zhuangbilityγ β
The female secretary said angrily: "Anyway, it's the one that fascinates everyone, especially women!" β
She kicked the pillar hard, and muttered and complained, "Really, I said I would dance with me before, and I hooked up with an old woman again!" β
Hearing this, Lin Huiyin actually felt a little bit of kinship.
Really, the Chinese didn't even look at a beautiful girl like her, but talked and laughed with an old woman in her thirties.
This beautiful girl with a delicate heart also found a small problem in the other party's words, and couldn't help but ask again: "What do you say...... What does that mean? β
And it means again and again. You don't know, that Chinese guy...... Well, Chinese just like to hook up with older women, when I'm in the United States......"
The female secretary suddenly took out two cigars and asked, "Smoke?" Good Cuban cigars, I stole from that Chinese...... Well, I got it. β
Lin Huiyin took one by surprise, and then smoked the match that Miss Moman was struck.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Master Yuan's female secretary smoked his cigar decently, coughing, and gossiping with great interest: "He first slept with a movie star, and it is said that they also met at a Halloween ball, and then that's it." But I didn't see ...... with my own eyes."
"What I saw firsthand was how he hooked up with a divorced slut at an Easter party. The two of them went to the stables on the spot......"
"You ask me what they're doing in the stables? Don't ask, they're not here to see the horses anyway......"
Finally, Miss Morman asked, "Tell me, is this Chinese very messy?" β
"Hmm." Lin Huiyin nodded, and couldn't help asking, "Then why did you stay with him and come to the UK with him?" You're not afraid ......."
"What am I afraid of? I'm still looking forward to him......" The female secretary who accidentally said the truth blushed and stopped her words.
But at this time, a man's voice sounded behind them, and he seemed to ask with a smile: "What are you looking forward to him doing?" β
"You want to take care of it?!"
The two girls were startled when they heard this, and the female secretary with a pungent temperament was ashamed and angry, and immediately scolded.
But when they looked back, they saw a handsome face with a wicked smile on it.
"You, you, you...... I, I, I ......"
Miss Morman, whose little face was so red that she was ripe, threw down the cigar in her hand, covered her face, and ran away.
"Hahaha......" Master Yuan laughed like a child who had succeeded in his prank, "Hmm......"
He frowned suddenly, crouched down and picked up half of the cigar, stood up and blew the dust on it.
Then Yuan Yan took a deep breath as if no one was around......
The reason why our Master Yuan didn't continue Zhuangbility in the dance hall was because he suddenly realized that he had forgotten something very important.
This thing is that he is now in a big-rotten-country!
The corrupt country has its own national conditions.
In 1895, the Marquess of Queensberry was married to his son, Lord Alfred Douglas; Alias "Bosie") has a relationship with the great writer Oscar Wilde, which leads to a father-son feud, and openly reprimands Wilde for being a good man.
Enraged, Alfred told Wilde to appeal immediately and sue the Marquis for ruining his reputation. As a result, Wilde lost his appeal and was countercharged with "committing acts of gross indecency ith other male persons". Wilde was convicted of two years of hard labour in Reading and Bentonville prisons under Part 11 of the harsh Criminal Law Amendments of 1855 in England at the time.
It seems that this incident proves that the corrupt country has been insisting on "anti-corruption".
In fact, this is exactly what illustrates the decline of the British Empire during the Victorian period......
Well, well, the atmosphere of Niu Niu is not so good.
Later historians admit that in the eighteenth century George III's city of London, one in five women had been sold, and that these women were not ashamed but proud.
A poor man named John Cleland (1709-1789) was imprisoned in London for debts.
Europeans seem to like to write while in prison, most famously "Mein Kampf" by "His Highness of Moderation", and "Marco Polo's Travels" dictated by Marco Polo while in prison.
And this gentleman wrote a book called "Fanny Hill." This book is considered to be the originator of the British "youth".
tells the growth history of a girl in the form of letters. The heroine, Fanny Hill, is an orphan girl in the countryside who is tricked by her fellow villagers into working in the bustling city of London, but what awaits her is Himein.
However, she enjoyed sex education, growth and an unspeakable life in a brothel. She has many refreshing theories: "God created the human flesh to be enjoyable." "If someone is unhappy just because they don't accept their state of life."
In fact, the "decline" in sexual morality is a by-product of the development of capitalism and industrialization.
The Industrial Revolution and urbanization reduced the number of rural jobs and women rural workers flocked to the cities.
Of course, they can work as babysitters and factory workers, but these jobs require long hours of hard work and only receive a meager wage that does not match the workload. For some lower-class women, moral degradation is nothing compared to easy work and fancy.
That's why there is a lively East ...... That London. This can only be said that there is nothing new under the sun.
If the sexual relations between men and women in a society are open, then the sexual relations between men and women will definitely be opened up.
So the British Empire became a corrupt country.
This "rot" is manifested in two aspects: first, the specialty of the British Empire - the old virgin.
In particular, the First World War added two million single women to Britain. It is natural for these women to develop an "unhealthy female friendship" with each other.
The English Defenders were devastated by this situation, and there was a general belief that they should be sent to the colonies. It has also been said that Canada has a large number of male trappers and loggers, and that Australia has plenty of opportunities to "have fun".
But at this time, it was already the twenties of the twentieth century, not the middle of the nineteenth century when "Famine Orphan Girl" happened, and these straight men couldn't do it if they wanted to.
Second, the love between men and women has become a "custom" of the upper class.
For example, in the era of Keynes's schooling, the beautiful boys who came out of high society at Eton College were almost all. Later, Keynes and Xu Zhimo's King's College, Cambridge, had the same problem.
This lingering lingers a hundred years later......
The logic of these faggets is this: You have been admitted to Eton College and King's College, how can you still fall in love with a silly girl?
Smart, sensitive, daffodil-like boy paper can of course only be with the same boy paper!
And the "Macroeconomics Pioneer" is naturally a smart, sensitive, daffodil-like boy paper. He graduated from Eton College with three firsts in Maths, History and English, and was awarded a full scholarship to King's College.
So he naturally became a. His lover, Duncan Grant, was the cousin of his college classmate who later became a modernist painter.
After the two met in 1906, they had a six-year cohabitation life, and became lifelong friends after the end of their relationship.
In fact, this Duncan classmate is a male version of the green tea. As an artist, cheating or something is as frequent to him as eating. Pedaling on both boats is light, and three or four are happening from time to time.
As a sign of his opposition to the war, Duncan refused to serve in the military and was taken to court, where he was nearly thrown in prison for denouncing the war. Keynes hurried from the Treasury to act as his second-instance defense lawyer, saving him from death.
Duncan and his junior went abroad to participate in an art exhibition, were detained at the border, and were verbally insulted by border officers. Keynes hurried to get out his lover and rival, but Duncan scolded him for being nothing more than a dog with the government's lackeys.
On the other hand, Keynes is also very "watery Yanghua", and even spends money to find a male concubine.
However, this was finally straightened by a magical lady.
Lydia-Lopokova, the "wonder lady" was born into a modest family in Russia, where she began studying ballet at an early age and received rigorous training at the Imperial Ballet School in St. Petersburg.
She was the kind of independent and "restless" girl who grew up leaving her homeland alone and becoming a bohemian artist wandering Europe.
Lydia Lefgova is truly quite amazing.
The great painter Picasso painted a portrait of her, the Scottish writer James Matthew Barry, the author of Peter Pan, wrote a libretto for her, and the famous Russian composer and important figure of Western modernism, Igor Fedorovich Stravinsky, lived with her and made music for her.
At the same time, she is also an excellent dancer, and has performed on the same stage with the Ukrainian ballet genius Vaslav Nijinsky, known as the "eighth wonder of the world" and "the god of dance". He suffered from schizophrenia in 1919, and even Freud personally treated him.
And this "perfect combination of wisdom and beauty" did not meet until the second half of this year, and it was love at first sight, and they began to live together after knowing each other for less than two weeks.
To be honest, if Yuan Yanqian stayed in the UK, she would really want to meet this "magic lady".
In short, our Master Yuan found that Master Keynes was looking at him more and more strangely, which made him finally remember this.
Don't forget, his 17-point charm value is suitable for all ages, both men and women.
This incident naturally made him break out in a cold sweat, so he hurriedly found an excuse to run out to avoid the strange enthusiasm shown by the "macroeconomics pioneer".
Lin Huiyin, who was at a loss, stammered: "Mr. Hong, Hong, Mr. Hong, I, I, I went in first." β
As she spoke, she lowered her head and was about to leave.
"Miss Lin, slow down."
Yuan Yanqian suddenly grabbed her wrist and lifted it up, he smiled and pointed to the half cigar in the soft and said, "This is a good Cuban cigar, Miss Lin, don't you finish it?" β
"I ......"
Lin Huiyin raised his head, and a pair of bright eyes were facing his bottomless "Void Eyes". The girl couldn't help but get lost in it.
"Host, very good! Let her be my holy daughter of Bensaba now......"
