Three days passed, Lu Yulin waited a little anxious, he leaned on the sofa tiredly, and after a while, he fell asleep. Suddenly, he heard footsteps outside the office and quickly woke up from his dream. A figure floated in. God, this can't be a dream, Lu Yulin rubbed his eyes vigorously, and took a closer look, yes, it was her, it was Shuxian who he had been thinking about for a long time. The Shuxian in front of her was no longer dressed as a student, but a noble lady wearing a black embroidered velvet cheongsam, combing her bun, and stepping on high heels.

"Shuxian, why are you, why are you here?"

"Yulin, you turned out to be the editor-in-chief of "Baiyun Daily"?"

"Are you just a lamp?"

Shuxian nodded: "I really didn't expect that after more than two years, we actually met here again." ”

"I thought I was dreaming."

"It does feel like a dream."

"Shuxian, I had a hard time looking for you, you tell me, how did you disappear without a trace all of a sudden?"

"It's a long story, Yulin, how did you become the editor-in-chief of the newspaper?"

"This Baiyun Daily is our family's own newspaper, and my father asked me to take over as the editor-in-chief here a few days ago, so I am working here now."

"When did you leave the army?"

"After my leg injury is healed, I will leave the 19th Route Army."

"Why? Didn't you say that being a soldier is your ideal? ”

"Shuxian, you don't know, when I was recuperating from my wounds, I heard that the government and the Japanese signed the "Songhu Armistice Agreement", so that our 19th Route Army would withdraw from Shanghai and go to Fujian to suppress the Communists, which I never expected, how could we aim our guns at our compatriots, not the Japanese invaders, so I quit and simply took off my military uniform and retired from the army."

"I see."

"After I was discharged from the hospital, I went to Aurora University to look for you, but unexpectedly, one of your classmates told me that you had dropped out of school and your father had also left his job."

"You went to the university to find me?"

"I was going to propose to you."

Shuxian blushed.

"Shuxian, tell me, where have you been in the past two years?"

"Yulin, to this day, I won't hide it from you. Shuyan and I are both underground members of the Chinese Communist Party. ”

Shuxian thought that Yulin would be surprised, but she didn't expect his reaction to be calm.

"I guessed right. I think I guessed it when I met Shuyan and Xu Mingfeng when I was in Nanjing. ”

"You met them when you were in Nanjing?"

"They won't let me say it. So I'm going to keep it a secret. ”

"Shuyan: They have been engaged in armed struggle in the countryside. Two years ago, they failed in their rebellion in northern Jiangsu and were wanted, so the organization notified me and my father to transfer overnight. But despite this, we did not give up our struggle. We hope that more and more patriots will join our ranks,"

"Do you think I can do it?"

"Of course, you are a hot-blooded man with the ambition to serve the country, we just met not long ago, you want to join the army to serve the country, from then on, I thought that you will definitely be able to become our comrade in the future."

"Really? You're really discerning. ”

"You really did not disappoint me, and later in the 19th Route Army, you fought with the Japanese on the battlefield with real swords and guns, and now you have taken off your military uniform because you are unwilling to suppress the Communists, and you have complained about the patriots in the newspapers and upheld justice for them. Therefore, I will report some of your situation to the party organization, and hope that they will recruit you as a member of our organization as soon as possible. ”

"That's really good, Shuxian, do you know, since I was discharged from the army, I feel like I have lost my soul, I don't know what to do every day in order to realize my ideals, so that I can live this life in vain, now it's okay, I finally have hope."

Yu Lin held Shuxian's hand tightly. It's not just because of reunion, it's because of finding a home.

"Shuxian, when will you take me to meet your comrades?"

"I'll let you know when I've reported to the Order."

"Okay, I'll wait for good news."

"Well, then I'll go first."

"I'll send you."

"No, I'll go alone so I can avoid some trouble."

Yu Lin nodded and watched Shuxian leave.

After Shuxian left, Yulin jumped on the sofa excitedly, and he felt like a lost child who had found his way home.

Two days later, Shuxian came to the newspaper office again.

"Yulin, I have already reported your matter to my superiors, you come with me now, and I will take you to meet someone."

"Really, okay, let's go."

As soon as she came out of the newspaper, Shuxian took the initiative to put her hand on Lu Yulin's arm, and the two looked like a couple in love. Yu Lin had never seen Shuxian have such an active intimate action, and she was a little stunned for a while.

"Don't be surprised, be natural."

"No, I just think it's too sudden, happiness comes too quickly."

"Don't be poor, call a rickshaw."

"Rickshaw." Yulin raised his hand, and a rickshaw stopped in front of them.

"Zhouji Pharmacy near Baiyun Mountain."

Soon, the driver took them to their destination. Yulin paid and walked into an inconspicuous pharmacy with Shuxian.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy was a slightly chubby middle-aged man, wearing a small melon skin hat, a blue gown, and a pair of alert eyes looking out from time to time.

"Uncle Zhou, I brought people here."

"He's waiting for you in the back."

Shuxian nodded and walked towards the back room with Yulin. The back of the pharmacy is actually quite spacious, there is a not small courtyard, the yard is full of various herbs, and there are several bungalows around the courtyard. Shuxian and Yulin walked through the courtyard and into a bungalow in the middle, where a burly man stood.

"Brother-in-law, I brought Yulin here."

"Brother-in-law?" Yu Lin was so strange: "Shuyan is married? ”

The man turned around, and Yu Lin was overjoyed at first sight.

"Aren't you Xu Mingfeng?"

"Hello, Yulin." Xu Mingfeng stretched out his hand: "This is the second time we have shaken hands." ”

"Yes, yes, for the second time."

"Shuxian called you brother-in-law, are you and Shuyan married?"

"When you met us in Nanjing, we were already married."

"What about Sook-yeon?"

"She was injured a while ago and is recovering now."

"Is it badly hurt?"

"It's okay, she's almost healed, and now her father is with her."

"Is Uncle Xu's lung disease cured?"

"It's no big deal."

"That's good."

"Let's talk, I'll take a look outside." Shuxian then walked out of the house.

"Yulin, please sit down, Shuxian has already told me everything about your situation, we appreciate your attitude very much, and we also know that you have no way to serve the country now, and our organization is in need of patriotic young people like you who are willing to shed their blood for the people of Li."

"Thank you, say whatever you need me to do."

"Okay, I know that Baiyun Daily is currently out of publication."

"Yes, it was because of the publication of an article mourning Liu Yusheng that the Press Prosecutor's Office ordered the publication to be suspended for two months."

"What are you going to do after the republication?"

"Continue to fight with them, and I will continue to publish some articles in the column of short comments on the current situation, so that the public will know that our "Baiyun Daily" will never bow to the evil forces, and will continue to shout for the people."

"I admire your indomitable spirit, but now our strategy in the struggle against the enemy is not a frontal attack, and if we continue according to your ideas, the Baiyun Daily will definitely be closed down and banned, and in this case, we will lose a position in the struggle against the enemy."

"So what are we going to do? Do you want to avoid talking about state affairs from now on? Aiming to entertain the masses? Lu Yulin was a little puzzled.

"Of course not, I mean, Baiyun Daily has a neutral stance, neither singing praises for the authorities, waving flags and shouting for the government, nor too radical, causing the resentment of the authorities, and not wanting to get rid of them as soon as possible. Newspapers can focus on content that is close to the daily life of the people, and publish some parents' short stories, rare anecdotes, celebrities, and serialized stories. ”

"In this way, I am afraid that everyone thinks that our "Baiyun Daily" has been frightened by the suspension of publication, and we dare not face the disadvantages of the times anymore, and dare not speak for the public what they want to say but dare not say. That's too much of a bag. ”

"Yulin, I know you can't figure it out for a while, but only in this way can Baiyun Daily survive and become an important weapon for our organization to deal with the enemy."

When Yu Lin heard this, he seemed to understand a little: "In this way, "Baiyun Daily" has another role. ”

Xu Mingfeng nodded: "In addition to the conventional means, we also want to convey some instructions and tasks to the underground party groups in various places through the Baiyun Daily. In this way, it is more hidden, safer and more convenient. ”

Lu Yulin suddenly opened his mouth at this time: "I understand, I will actively cooperate." ”

"Comrade Yulin, welcome you to join our organization, from today on, your code name is 'Jellyfish', in the future, Shuxian will be your contact, code name: Pearl, I am your direct leader, my code name is 'Starfish', Shuyan's code name is Coral."

"Understood."

"Oh, and do you have a radio station there so we can keep abreast of each other in the future?"

"Yes, my father had a couple of commercial radio stations. I am also planning to buy some machinery for the newspaper. “

"Do you know how to send a newspaper, do you know Morse code?"

"I once won first place in a newspaper contest in a military school."

"Hey, how did I forget, you are a top student of the Whampoa Military Academy."

"I've won the prize, where did Brother Xu learn the reporting technique?"

"I used to study at the Frunze Military Academy of the USSR."

"You've been to the Soviet Union?" When Lu Yulin heard that Xu Mingfeng had studied in the Soviet Union, his eyes lit up.

"It was ten years ago." Xu Mingfeng stood up and patted Lu Yulin on the shoulder: "Yulin, we are in a stormy era, and we, the students who came out of the military academy, must apply what we have learned, walk in the forefront of the times, and assume our responsibilities for our nation." “

Lu Yulin nodded firmly.

"Oh, also, we all know about the matter between you and Shuxian, and after organizing research and deciding, we agreed to the marriage of the two of you, which is not only to fulfill the lover, but also to facilitate work."

"Really?" Lu Yulin was so excited that he hugged Xu Mingfeng.

"Oops, I'm overexcited." Xu Mingfeng punched Lu Yulin: "Go find the bride." “

Lu Yulin jumped out of the house, saw Shuxian standing in the yard, and hurriedly ran over and hugged her.

"Yulin, what's wrong with you? Happy to be like this? “

"Shuxian, you can finally be my bride."

Xu Shuxian's face was flushed, and she looked at Lu Yulin shyly: "We can finally be together." “
