The report in the newspaper that surprised Song Zhewu was "The First Couple in the Army in History -- General Song Zhewu and His Wife Li Rujuan".

Song Zhewu sighed in his heart: "It's over now, he was also arranged marriage, but it wasn't arranged by his parents, it was the media who arranged his marriage."

But he is not ready to get married, and he has not even made up his mind whether to get married in this life. It has been lingering in Song Zhewu's heart, and the shadow that he is several generations away from everyone in this world has not yet dissipated, especially when he sees the smart, beautiful, and empathetic Li Rujuan, this idea is even stronger.

Song Zhewu leaned back on the sofa a little helplessly.

This incident made Song Zhewu very distressed, and he had been thinking in his heart at the dinner last night that Li Rujuan's matter was very troublesome, otherwise he would not have drunk too much. If he doesn't like Li Rujuan, it's okay, he can harden his heart and solve this matter cleanly. The crux of the matter is that he likes Li Rujuan, and every time he sees Li Rujuan, he feels extremely happy. Although Song Zhewu did not get married in his previous life, and he did not even have a virgin girlfriend during college and graduate school, this was even ridiculed by his classmates, saying that he was a righteous gentleman in the last century. But he knew that he was in love with Li Rujuan, because the feeling he felt when he saw Li Rujuan was the same as the feeling he had when he saw the college flower he had a crush on in his previous life.

If he doesn't marry Li Rujuan, then he will hurt Li Rujuan, and it is the worst kind. Perhaps, she will bear the name of Song Zhewu's ex-wife for the rest of her life. Now it is not only in Hankou that there is a lot of turmoil in the city, but soon the whole country will know that Li Rujuan is his wife of Song Zhewu. Song Meiling warmly entertained Ji Ganqing and Li Rujuan, Ji Ganqing is Han Fuyu's wife, anyone will naturally think that Li Rujuan is his wife Song Zhewu, no one will believe that the first lady will be mistaken.

If people find out later that he did not marry Li Rujuan, even if he Song Zhewu is not married, the world will think that at least he and Li Rujuan once had an extraordinary relationship, or even a lover relationship. How does this make Li Rujuan deal with herself! How to face her family, friends! How to face the gaze of worldly judgment! And how to get married!

After staying for a long time, Song Zhewu gritted his teeth and made up his mind. No matter what, a big man like himself must not ruin the life of Li Rujuan, a smart and beautiful girl. Since this is the case, let's first determine the relationship between the two with Li Rujuan, otherwise Li Rujuan will be ugly. As for the plot of the two worlds in my heart, it will slowly change, and I will follow the customs of the locals, and I will have to follow the customs of the world.

Song Zhewu got up and wanted to find Li Rujuan, but Li Rujuan pushed the door and came in. Her expression was calm, and there was no hint of uneasiness. Song Zhewu knew that this was Li Rujuan's pretending to be calm, and she would also see the news in the newspaper.

In fact, he could imagine how much pressure there was in the heart of the woman in front of him who had always loved him. This pressure is so great that even a big man like him is not easy to bear. If she doesn't show her love for her now, she'll be heartbroken.

"Commander, you drank a lot of wine last night, and I'm here to remind you that Chairman Jiang is going to summon you today." Li Rujuan said softly. Song Zhewu knew that this was Li Rujuan's desire to see her reaction to yesterday's events and today's newspaper reports.

"Rujuan", Song Zhewu called out softly to Li Rujuan, who was hesitant to turn around and leave. walked up to Li Rujuan, stared at Li Rujuan's beautiful eyes full of surprise and expectation, and asked softly: "Rujuan, do you really like me?" ”

Li Rujuan's body trembled obviously, and her face instantly turned pale like a blank piece of paper. This sudden question made Li Rujuan at a loss for a while, her mind was empty, as if she had no consciousness, this man who made her fascinated and couldn't sleep at night was asking herself? Are you asking yourself if you like her?

After a while, Li Rujuan confirmed that she was not dreaming, and that his beloved was really standing in front of her. Although Li Rujuan is a woman with a high new education, out of the shy instinct of the female surname, her cheeks immediately turned crimson, she lowered her head, and said in a low voice that even she herself could not hear clearly: "Yes, I like it!" ”

Li Rujuan's coquettish and shy demeanor made most of the two episodes that plagued Song Zhewu's heart dissipate immediately, and what stood in front of him at this moment was just a pretty woman who loved him deeply.

Song Zhewu, who received the expected reply, gently took Li Rujuan's hot and soft hand, and said softly: "Rujuan, I like you very much too, I officially propose to you now, can you agree to me?" ”

Li Rujuan only felt as if she had been hit by a powerful electric current that made her extremely happy, and her body immediately became soft, she couldn't control her body, and fell into Song Zhewu's arms. The man she had been in love with for a long time finally proposed to her! She has finally won the heart of this handsome, talented, and capable "best man in the world"! She could finally proudly say what she had said countless times in her dreams in reality. I, Li Rujuan, am the wife of Song Zhewu, the best man in the world. Thinking of this, Li Rujuan couldn't help but lay her head on Song Zhewen's warm and strong chest, and cried loudly, this was the happiness she had been looking forward to, and tears of excitement.

Song Zhewu couldn't help but be immersed in happiness at the moment, he finally had a second relative in this world besides his eldest brother Song Zhewen! Gently hugged Li Rujuan's waist that was trembling with excitement, he knew that Li Rujuan was crying with joy. A mischievous thought suddenly came to him, and he leaned on Li Rujuan's ear and whispered: "Rujuan, if you don't want to, don't cry, I won't force you." ”

Li Rujuan, who was lying in his arms, suddenly raised her head and said eagerly: "I am willing!" Seeing Song Zhewu's narrow smile, he knew that he had been fooled, so he immediately put his head on Song Zhewu's shoulder and kept beating Song Zhewu with his hand, "Call you bad, call you bad!" ”

Song Zhewu let Li Rujuan's gentle hand hit his back, unaware, at this time he was completely immersed in this sweet and happy atmosphere of love......

After a long time, Song Zhewu gently helped Li Rujuan up, gently helped Li Rujuan wipe away the tears of happiness, and pulled her to sit on the sofa. Li Rujuan leaned her head tightly on Song Zhewu's shoulder, and a pair of soft and delicate hands still tightly grasped Song Zhewu's powerful big hand, as if as soon as she let go, her sweetheart would disappear.

Song Zhewu tried to calm his mood, thought for a moment, and gently stroked Li Rujuan's short hair exposed outside the military hat with his other hand, and said carefully: "Rujuan, I will tell them as soon as we return to Xiaogan about our love." "En" Li Rujuan responded softly, she had been looking forward to this day for a long time!

"But we won't be able to get married anytime soon." As soon as Song Zhewu's words fell, Li Rujuan's hands suddenly grabbed Song Zhewu's hands, raised her head, and asked nervously, "Why?" ”

Song Zhewu patted Li Rujuan's slender hands, which were a little white because of exertion, and said, "I still have a lot of things to do." ”

"But I won't get in your way!" Li Rujuan said eagerly.

Song Zhewu leaned his head on Li Rujuan's ear and whispered: "Rujuan, we don't have an ideal foothold now, we can't live in the barracks!" And if you have a baby, you can't run around with me anymore. ”

As soon as Li Rujuan heard Song Zhewu mention the child, she hurriedly put her face on Song Zhewu's chest shyly. Song Zhewu could feel the hot temperature on Li Rujuan's face......

Song Zhewu tried to control himself and continued to say to Li Rujuan: "If everything goes well, in a year, we will have a piece of our own territory, and I will let go of my strength, and I will build it into the richest, most powerful, and most advanced place in the country." At that time, we will have another beautiful wedding, don't you think? ”

Li Rujuan thought for a while, she knew that the man she loved was by no means a mediocre person who begged for help, he was a person who wanted to do great things. Although she was reluctant, she couldn't help but support him. Raising his head, a pair of beautiful eyes with affection looked at Song Zhewu and said, "What you say counts!" ”

Song Zhewu nodded hurriedly and said, "Count, must count." ”

Li Rujuan continued: "Also, before I get married, I want to be by your side all the time. ”

Song Zhewu understood Li Rujuan's mood, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of man who sees things and loves to mess with flowers, I will only love you alone in my life, and no one can snatch me away from you." ”

Li Rujuan asked reluctantly: "You quickly promise me to follow you, I'm afraid that there are other girls pursuing you." ”

Song Zhewu thought to himself, love is selfish, and this is really not wrong. Busy smiled and said, "Promise you, I promise you." ”

Song Zhewu said: "Rujuan, I only have one elder brother, named Song Zhewen, who is now doing business in the United States, except for him, there is only one relative in this world." Li Rujuan said happily: "Wenge, when we get married, will the eldest brother come back?" ”

"Yes, definitely. His brother married such a beautiful wife, how could he not come back as an elder brother. Song Zhewu said with a smile. However, I still don't know what my father-in-law, Lord Taishan, does? Who is in your family? My husband-to-be must know! ”

Listening to Song Zhewu's wife, Taishan, and husband shouting, Li Rujuan's heart was full of tenderness and sweetness. Li Rujuan very much wants to know about Song Zhewu's relatives, and of course she also hopes that Song Zhewu will know about his family, so that he can have a sense of identity with his family. At that moment, he told Song Zhewu about the situation at home in detail. almost told Song Zhewu about the family changes that began when she was sensible, the current members, and how she studied in the UK, how she ran to Beiping after returning to China, and how she came to the capital of the Fourth Route Army.

Song Zhewu only knew that Li Rujuan had studied in the UK before, thinking that she was a rich woman who went abroad to gild for fun. I didn't expect to study economics, which men rarely dabble in in this era. I couldn't help but be surprised, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect my fiancée to be a university scholar studying abroad!" ”

Li Rujuan stepped forward and said proudly: "You are really right!" Don't think that you are sorry if your factories are prosperous, in my opinion, these factories will be better if they don't move to Laiyuan. They will operate better in Tianjin, Shanghai, and Wuhan. Moreover, their products are selling very well now, and they can take this opportunity to expand their scale on a large scale, reduce costs and selling prices, occupy more markets, and form economies of scale. ”

Although Song Zhewu did not study economics, he, a traveler, naturally knew that what Li Rujuan said was right. However, he also had a hard time moving the factory to Laiyuan, otherwise it was likely that when he made a move against Yan Xishan, these factories left in Tianjin would be destroyed. And he also wants to expand the scale, but he has the heart to protect the national industry. The former reason is difficult for him to say, and the latter reason is explained to Li Rujuan. Unexpectedly, Li Rujuan opened her beautiful eyes wide, looked at Song Zhewu like an alien, and said suspiciously: "Aren't these factories of yours a national industry, but a foreign enterprise?" ”

A word to wake up the dreamer. That's right, aren't my factories and enterprises national enterprises? Not only these factories, but also the factories that will be opened in the future are all national enterprises. The reason why I have this idea is that the plot of the two lives is at work, and I still haven't really integrated into this era. If national enterprises want to develop and prosper, it is not just by protection, but also by the promotion of competition, without competition, there will be no source of development, and without power, enterprises will not have great development. Its own factory is to be a powerful power source for the development of national enterprises and promote the development of national enterprises.

Song Zhewu happily held Li Rujuan's hand and said: "Rujuan, your words made me pause, of course, my enterprise is also a national enterprise, I am not a foreigner, I am an authentic Chinese." You're right about economies of scale, you're so 'talented'. Song Zhewu was excited and brought out all the buzzwords of later generations.

Li Rujuan couldn't help but be very excited when she saw that her talented sweetheart also thought she had talent, and pouted and continued: "What is this, for example, last night Chairman Jiang said that economic construction should be carried out now, but the financial resources are insufficient. ”

"Do you also have an opinion on Chairman Chiang's words?" Song Zhewu's interest was completely hooked by Li Rujuan.

Li Rujuan said with some pride: "It is true that the development of the domestic economy needs funds, but not all of these funds need to be made by the government, and the key is to mobilize private capital to invest." For example, some private enterprises with relatively large investment and advanced technology can be given preferential treatment such as land and taxation. The political axe only needs to improve the business environment, control official corruption, and increase the construction of railways, highways, and ports. Of course, the construction of some large-scale industrial projects is also needed, after all, the conditions for large-scale investment by private capital are not yet available. ”

Song Zhewu stood up with some excitement, Li Rujuan's set of theories has been proven to be effective in later generations, whether it was in the 60s and 70s, or a little later in Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, and so on, and even later the mainland's reform and development also attached great importance to the role of private capital. Although there will not be many people who can think like this now, Li Rujuan will never be the only one, and the key is that it is almost impossible for anyone to win the support of those in power. In particular, no matter who is in power, it will not be able to change the business environment of national capital in a short period of time, and this will take time.

However, Li Rujuan had the opportunity that once she took Shanxi, Yan Xishan's bureaucratic system would have to be rebuilt, otherwise the new deal would not be realized in a short period of time. Economic construction will be the top priority, and Li Rujuan will have the space to realize her theory, and perhaps China will have another Nobel laureate in economics. I took advantage of it this time, not only found a beautiful lady like a flower, but also picked up a financial expert I needed.

Although Song Zhewu was very excited, he was still very sober. These things are to be done later, and there is one thing that must be done now.

"Rujuan, you should send a telegram to your parents immediately and tell them about your situation." Seeing that Li Rujuan didn't understand for a while, Song Zhewu said again: "You have seen all the newspapers today, right?" ”

Li Rujuan's face turned slightly red, she not only saw it, but she also secretly hid the newspaper. "You mean, my parents will also see the newspapers? Worried about me? ”

Song Zhewu said: "Yes, they will definitely be able to see it in the Central News today. ”

Li Rujuan said with a smile: "My parents will only be happy when they see such a handsome and dashing lieutenant general commander who has become a lieutenant general at a young age and married their daughter." ”

Song Zhewu shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "No wonder people say that women who fall in love will become stupid, manuscripts can be sent by telegram, but photos cannot be transmitted, in this era, someone needs to be sent back by boat." The photos won't be available until tomorrow at the earliest. Your parents were not shocked when they saw the newspaper saying that you were the wife of the commander-in-chief of the Fourth Route Army, and they must have thought that the commander-in-chief of the Fourth Route Army was an old man. ”

His parents must think so, it seems that there is no such young Song Zhewu in such a big official country, so it's no wonder that they are not in a hurry! Moreover, they did not know that they had taken the initiative to join the Fourth Route Army, in case their parents thought they were forced......

Thinking of her mother's tearful eyes, Li Rujuan also became anxious. Get up and go. "I'm going to send a telegram."

Song Zhewu grabbed Li Rujuan and said: "The telegram must be made clear, and tell them not to come to Wuhan for the time being, we will leave here and return to Hebei, and then send them a telegram." ”

Song Zhewu had to explain a few more words, Liang Bi came in with a telegram, and when he saw the appearance of the two, Liang Bi was a little overwhelmed, and said hesitantly: "Commander, the chief of staff telegraphs." ”

As soon as he heard that it was Xiao Guodong's telegram, Song Zhewu didn't care to say more, and hurriedly looked at it.

The content of the telegram was to tell Song Zhewu that the cavalry was traveling smoothly and was returning to Xiaogan.

Song Zhewu handed the telegram to Li Rujuan and said, "Rujuan, you go and send a telegram." Adjutant Liang, inform Brigade Commander Ye and Director Wang to come to me, and I will explain to them the evacuation of the Hankou personnel. ”
