Due to the good secrecy, only a few people know the news of Lu Xiaoman's birth, and now Wang Geng is not in Shanghai, and the divorce turmoil has passed for a long time, and there seems to be nothing to stop them from being together.

Getting married was soon put on the agenda.

"You want to get married, marry that woman from the Lu family?" The old man of the Xu family looked at Xu Zhimo in surprise, ridiculous, it was too ridiculous, "I don't agree with this, the daughter-in-law of the Xu family only recognizes Youyi, and other women don't want to enter the gate of the Xu family." ”

"Dad, I've been separated from Youyi for so many years, and it's all gone, why don't you understand?"

Xu Zhimo's heart sank, he didn't expect his father's attitude to be so intense, hey, love, why is it so difficult?

He still said patiently: "Xiaoman and I really love each other, you can fulfill me!" ”

The old man of the Xu family glanced at his son, saw his insistent look, and knew that he could not change his mind, so he had to sigh secretly in his heart and shook his head, "This matter is very important, I still have to listen to Youyi's opinion." ”

As soon as Xu Zhimo heard it, he knew that his father's attitude had changed, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and soon went out of the house to find Zhang Youyi.

Zhang Youyi was called to Xu's house, and Xu Shenru asked her with a serious face: "Do you agree with Xu Zhimo's remarriage?" ”

Zhang Youyi looked at the second elder of the Xu family, and then at Xu Zhimo next to him, who looked expectant, her heart was gloomy, and she smiled slightly: "I hope he finds the happiness he wants, this is his business, I-no opinion." ”

Xu Zhimo was happy and ashamed, and was so excited that he took Zhang Youyi's hand and said thank you, Zhang Youyi looked indifferent, she had already known that the result was like this, and now she has seen it.

"Marriage is up to you." Father Xu's face was serious. "But I have two conditions. The first property was redistributed. Youyi and Ah Huan have a share, me and your mother have a share, and the rest belongs to you. The second is that for the sake of the Xu family's face, Shi Zhi (Hu Shi) should be the introducer, and Ren Gong (Liang Qichao) should be the witness! If you don't invite more than two, don't think I and your mother will attend the wedding! ”

After Xu's father finished speaking, he shook his hand and left, leaving only Zhang Youyi, Xu Zhimo and the old lady of the Xu family.

"I can teach and get by. If you don't rely on your family's money, your family's money should stay at home! Xu Zhimo said with a clear attitude.

As soon as he finished speaking, "I don't want the Xu family's property, leave it to Ah Huan, I still have something to do." ”

Zhang Youyi got up and was about to leave, "And I won't try to come to the Xu family in the future, if you want to come to my house, come to my house!" After speaking, he ignored Xu Zhimo, picked up his son Ah Huan and left the Xu family.

Looking at Zhang Youyi's resolute back, Xu Zhimo's mouth moved, but he couldn't say a word to stay.

Xu Zhimo found Hu Shi. said that he wanted to marry Lu Xiaoman and asked Hu Shi to be the introducer. Well, the main thing is to ask Liang Qichao to be a witness.

Hu Shi readily agreed, patted Xu Zhimo's shoulder, and said with a smile: "A lover will eventually become a family!" ”

However, the optimism of Hu Shi and Xu Zhimo failed to continue in Liang Qichao, but was poured cold water.

The two traveled thousands of miles to Beijing, and dressed up and entered the Liang family.

Liang Qichao was very happy to see them, the turmoil between Lu Xiaoman and Xu Zhimo caused a stir in Shanghai, almost slaughtering the newspaper, can Liang Qichao not know?

It is rare for Xu Zhimo to come to the door, and this time I want to educate him well.

When he heard that he was going to marry Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman, he was furious and took the case.

"Everyone outside knows that Wang Geng is my student, and Xu Zhimo is also my student, do I do this to encourage divorce and advocate red apricots out of the wall, or do I agree that you should seduce other people's wives and destroy other people's families is justified and a model of New China?"

Liang Qichao's old face is hot and red!

"It's all for Shima!" Hu Shi persuaded angrily that the role of the matchmaker was played very well, and she was all in the play!

Xu Zhimo stood aside and didn't dare to make a sound, bowed his head slightly, and obediently listened to the training.

"It's okay if you don't come forward, I'll scold you if you come forward. He can put ///, why are you confused with it? Liang Qichao really didn't give Hu Shi face, but criticized him, "If I don't come forward, you will have a bad impression of the society." Making friends is important in direct advice, and it cannot be tolerated and connived. ”

"Ren Gong taught me a lesson." Hu Shi lowered his head slightly, looked helpless, and stopped talking.

It means you can do it!

Seeing that Hu Shi and Xu Zhimo didn't speak, they just stood like that, if they didn't agree, they probably wouldn't leave. Even if you reprimand them, what else can you do?

Liang Qichao patted the back of his hand and sighed helplessly.

"I'll think about it." Liang Qichao waved his hand and drove the two out.

was counted down, Xu Zhimo and Hu Shi were disgraced, as soon as they left the Liang family, Xu Zhimo anxiously asked Hu Shi: "What does the teacher mean...... Look at this—"

"Don't worry! Ren Gong said so much, and he didn't say a word clearly, it is estimated that he has agreed, but he has not passed the level in his heart. ”

Hu Shi comforted Xu Zhimodao.

Sure enough, within a few days, Liang Qichao called the two of them to the Taoist family again, but agreed to Xu Zhimo's request.

Since Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman both live in Shanghai, their relatives and friends are here in Shanghai, and the wedding was held in Shanghai.

Liang Qichao has lived in Beijing all these years, and Beijing is like a backwater, and it is even more backward than southern cities such as Wuhan and Shanghai.

Lin Juemin, an old in-law, works in the Wuhan government and invited Liang Qichao to Wuhan several times, but the high-level government of the Wuhan Zhi Gong Party has a relatively cold attitude towards Liang Qichao and does not enthusiastically invite Liang Qichao, and Liang Qichao does not want to run over at a lower price.

Speaking of which, are most of the high-level leaders of the Zhi Gong Party Cantonese people, or are they from Liang Qichao's hometown?

Jing Ji thought about it, and also wanted to look at the south.

One of the things is to give Xu Zhimo a marriage ceremony, and the other is to visit his son and daughter-in-law who work in an architectural firm in Shanghai.

The only regret is that I haven't seen Wang Geng in the past few years, and after the Xu Lu turmoil, Wang Geng also broke off contact with Liang Qichao.

For this student, Liang Qichao felt that it was a pity. Liang Qichao has a lot of apprentices, Cai Ye is the most famous one, and the master and apprentice have also cooperated in politics, but after Cai Yi. Liang Qichao's political influence is much less than before. There are not many accomplished students. Wang Geng is the best one!

It should be said that it is the most powerful one!

Xu Zhimo is a talent, but he is a literati, and he is used to being willful, not to mention others, it is estimated that it will be difficult to have great achievements in learning in the future.

Take this marriage incident as an example, Liang Qichao was very disappointed in him, and what disappointed him even more was that Hu Shi and a group of other people followed behind him and cheered. None of them are on Wang Geng's side!

This is also the reason why Wang Geng is estranged from Liang Qichao and Liang Qichao's gang of children!

Taking a boat from Tianjin Port to Shanghai on the way, Liang Qichao was thinking about these things in his heart, and he was irritable, the only thing that made him happy was that his son and daughter-in-law did not get mixed with Hu Shi and Xu Zhimo, the two of them were still real people, contributing to the construction industry, and had no time to deal with these things.

Xu Zhimo flew back to Shanghai on a plane to prepare for the wedding, leaving Hu Shi to accompany Liang Qichao to make a boat.

"Why is Liang Gong depressed? Are you still haunted by that? Hu Shi asked.

"Forget it, let him go!" Liang Qichao waved his hand. I don't want to say more.

He also asked Hu Shi about the situation of the Wuhan Zhi Gong Party, and Hu Shi answered them one by one. After all, he still receives a civil servant's salary from the Wuhan government, but during this time, he asked for more leave for Xu Zhimo's business!

In the areas of diplomacy and education, a lot of business has fallen behind.

Liang Qichao was very interested in the Wuhan government's implementation of four-year compulsory primary education, and Hu Shi did a lot of work in this regard, and also personally compiled the primary school Chinese curriculum, and actively promoted Putonghua and simplified characters.

"It seems that you have done a lot of practical things in recent years, although I do not agree with simplifying characters, but I cannot but admit that it reduces the difficulty of literacy, is conducive to reducing illiteracy, and improves the level of national culture.

Four years of compulsory education, free primary education, no such grand event has ever been done in all dynasties, okay! ”

Liang Qichao stroked his palms and praised.

Hu Shi nodded.

Objectively speaking, literati and celebrities like Hu Shi are more likely to be retreating, which is very different from the ordinary bureaucrats or civil servants in the Ministry of Education of the Wuhan government.

Occasionally, when he has time, he works part-time as a diplomat, bragging and farting with foreigners, discussing literature and philosophy, attracting investment, and economic and trade cooperation, which are not his pleasures.

He's a relatively carefree person.

When he arrived in Shanghai, Liang Qichao lived in the house of Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin.

Liang Sicheng's house is in Jiangwan, close to the new Shanghai municipal government, with convenient transportation, near libraries, racetracks, theaters and other commercial cultural and entertainment facilities.

On the fifth floor, coming out of the elevator, the newly renovated house is fully equipped with household appliances, and the three-bedroom and two-living room 150 square meters of the house made Liang Qichao very satisfied, and he could overlook the Huangpu River outside by pushing open the glass window.

This is the river view mansion advertised!

"The house hardly costs much, the construction firm subsidizes part of it, and Hui Yin and I saved some money in our hands, and borrowed a sum of money from the bank to buy the house.

It adds up to less than 8,000 yuan! ”

Liang Sicheng told his father Liang Qichao with some pride that he didn't have to buy a house with a penny from his family and supported himself, which gave him a sense of accomplishment.

"So cheap?"

Liang Qichao was a little surprised, thinking that such a magnificent house has an elevator, there is not one in Beijing, and there are not many in Tianjin, how can it be estimated that it will cost tens of thousands of oceans?

Tens of thousands of oceans are not much for Liang Qichao, he lives in Beijing Hutong on weekdays, and the first time he lives in a high-rise western-style building, he naturally feels fresh.

"It does cost 30,000 or 40,000 yuan to sell outside, but our architectural firm has cooperated with the developer, and many of the communities in Jiangwan are designed by our architectural firm, and this building is equivalent to the fund-raising house of our architectural firm, which is much cheaper than the outside."

Liang Sicheng explained with a smile.

"Good!" Liang Qichao glanced at the living room with white tile walls and red floor tiles, nodded with satisfaction, and sat down on the soft sofa, which was indescribably comfortable.

Liang Sicheng opened the refrigerator and asked his father if he wanted juice? In addition to the juice in the fridge, it is Coke.

Liang Qichao shook his head, and Liang Sicheng immediately went to make tea.

In less than two minutes, the ceramic kettle on the coffee table boiled the water, and the fragrance of tea rose. Liang Sicheng smiled and poured tea for his father. He smiled and said, "It is said to be the big red robe over there in Fujian." The architectural office was given a lot, and I don't drink it often, but Hui Yin likes it. The young people in the unit are more fond of coffee, and Sumatran coffee is almost free of money. ”

The father and son sat for a while, the car downstairs rang, Didi sounded twice, Liang Sicheng looked at it, and a black car was parked downstairs. An urban beauty gets out of the car.

"Huiyin is back, I'll go down and get something." Liang Sicheng said with a smile, just in time to see Lin Huiyin waving upstairs and hurriedly walked down.

Lin Huiyin bought a large basket of seafood and a lot of daily necessities.

"Sicheng, come over and debug the gas pipeline." Lin Huiyin's voice came from the kitchen, this community may be the most modern community in China, in addition to all kinds of modern household appliances, even gas pipes are installed, unlike ordinary working-class people who live in silos and burn coal.

Liang Qichao looked at the young couple curiously. I thought: What has been abroad is different, and the way of life of my sons is indeed different from that of old-school families.

Lin Huiyin was a little embarrassed. said that he had just moved in, and it was the first time he used the kitchen, and the couple still lived in the family dormitory rented by the office on the concession side.

The firm recently moved to Jiangwan, close to Shanghai's new municipal government, and most of its employees have moved into the neighborhood with them.

"Seeing that you two days are so steady, I'm relieved!"

Liang Qichao was very satisfied, his smile never stopped, and he said with some expectation, "I am also happy for your progress in your career, I will go to Wuhan in a few days to see the Yangtze River Bridge you built!" ”

After visiting the architectural office and meeting with Mao Yisheng, Liang Qichao visited the Baoshan Xingang Industrial Zone and the new municipal area covered by the Greater Shanghai Construction Plan under the recommendation and accompaniment of Liang Sicheng.

almost forgot about Xu Zhimo, and it wasn't until Hu Shi came to the door that Liang Qichao remembered.

It's just that this time Hu Shi's mood is not too high, and he sighs when he sits down.

Liang Qichao was puzzled, so he asked, Hu Shi laughed at himself, and said that he was dismissed!

The government job is gone, but the university job is still there, and I can concentrate on teaching and educating people from now on.

"Is it because of Wang Geng?" Liang Qichao frowned and guessed.

"Probably! He is now in Wuhan and has become the principal of the Central Military Academy, and he has always been very valued there. Hu Shidao, things came suddenly, he was not mentally prepared, so he was dismissed like this, and his face was a little unpleasant.

"Isn't he using his power for personal gain? A bit excessive! Liang Qichao criticized.

Hu Shi waved his hand, and when he saw Liang Qichao's solemn appearance, he smiled and said: "It shouldn't be Wang Geng's business, he is not such a person, even Xu Zhimo didn't retaliate, let alone me." ”

"Hmm. It makes sense that he is indeed a gentleman. Liang Qichao nodded.

"I may not even know about this matter, I guess the people over there don't like me, I have lived in Shanghai more in recent years, and I am busy with my own affairs, and I may be a little neglectful of the work of the Ministry of Education."

Hu Shi said with some shame.

Let him blindly flatter, pursue political achievements in the wind and water, visit the field and rural primary schools, he is not easy to do, he is still suitable for writing and teaching in the university.

This is also why he and Xu Zhimo are so close and alienated from Wang Geng, because Wang Geng is a doer.

Seeing that Hu Shi was not much disappointed, his salary in college was several hundred yuan a month, and his life was not too easy, and Liang Qichao was inconvenient to say anything. It's hard to explain politics clearly, maybe there are other reasons for it?

Fortunately, Sicheng and Huiyin are far away from politics and trouble, but they are too busy!

After a few days of accompanying Liang Qichao, Liang Sicheng and his wife were sent to Nanjing by the office to be busy for the second Yangtze River Bridge, and they didn't bother to attend the wedding of Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman.

The wedding was very lively, and the location was also in Jiangwan, not far from Liang Sicheng's community, Xu Zhimo rented a new villa, which was more luxurious than Liang Sicheng's house.

The poets of the Crescent School all came, and they were all friends from the cultural circles, including Xu Zhimo's university colleagues, and the two brothers of the Zhang family, Lao //Er Zhang Junmai and Lao Jiu Zhang Yujiu.

The fourth Zhang Jiaguang became angry when he saw it, and lost his temper in front of the old man and the old lady of the Zhang family, and reprimanded: "The old // second and the ninth have their arms turned out, they are simply ungrateful!" ”

The old lady of the Zhang family and the old man of the Zhang family originally had a lot of opinions about Xu Zhimo, and they also complained in their hearts that the old // second and ninth in the family did not defend their sister, and then counted a few words.

But Zhang Junmai and Zhang Yujiu insisted on attending the wedding, so the Zhang family almost didn't fall out.

"It's all a bunch of bastards. Hypocritical villain! Zhang Jiaxuan was unhappy. I heard that Liang Qichao was also invited to witness the marriage. With such fanfare, didn't you slap Zhang Jia's face over and over again?

Now the Zhang family is not an ordinary family, he Zhang Jiaguang manages the largest bank in China - Bank of China, Zhang Youyi manages the women's bank, can be described as the bull's ear in Shanghai's financial circles, in addition to the Zhang family also has other industries such as Yunshang clothing company, with countless assets, and the Zhang Jian family of Dasheng Group is listed as two Zhang.

Now the Xu family is more high-profile. The more embarrassed he is!

Can you not be angry?

If it weren't for the ......

"Fourth brother, I've seen it all, I don't have the same knowledge as them, and our two families won't get along with each other in the future!"

Zhang Youyi took the fourth brother's hand and persuaded her not to be angry, and at the same time showed her categorical attitude.

The ex got married, with great fanfare, and nothing hurts more than that! Besides, he is a hundred times more expensive than Lu Xiaoman, can he not be angry when he puts it on anyone?

"That's fine. Less contact with the Xu family in the future! The old thing of the Xu family is not a good thing! Zhang Jiaxuan admonished, helpless. I can only sigh a long time.

When Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman were happy, the brother and sister went to Nanhua to expand the business of Bank of China and Women's Bank in Nanhua.

The wedding banquet was not as sweet as the Zhang brothers and sisters imagined, and the witness Liang Qichao sat on the chair with a tense face, and the more happy the guests around him laughed, he was impatient.

Especially when I saw Lu Xiaoman and Xu Zhimo's affectionate appearance, my heart was even more tired.

A little warmer than Liang Qichao's face, only the Xu family's parents beside him, although they were not very happy, but after all, it was their son who got married.

and Lu Xiaoman's parents, looking at the attitude of Liang Qichao and the Xu family's parents, they were also uncomfortable.

The atmosphere between these elders can only be described as embarrassing, and Hu Shi secretly felt bad when he sat on the side.

Sure enough, after the ring exchange ceremony was completed, Liang Qichao was furious, threw down the written testimony, stood up and let out a big talk: "I came here today to be a witness, and I was 10,000 unwilling in my heart." I'm here to say a few things that don't please me, and let the society know that this bad example is not worth encouraging, let alone encouraging! ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, the atmosphere was suddenly depressed, and the parents of Xu and Lu looked at each other, Liang Qichao's words almost beat the whole audience, which shows the strength of this group's attack skills.

"Xu Zhimo, you are impetuous, so that you can't learn anything, you can't do learning, and you are a failure-"

What else is there to be inattentive, to be a good person in the future, and so on, said loudly and earnestly, it is estimated that this is the most villainous witness in history!

Have you ever seen such harsh and mean words?

However, what is said is the truth, and everyone is not easy to refute, especially the party Xu Zhimo, who can only bear it silently. After all, this is what he insisted on inviting people over, and they were not happy to come and had to come, and now he is uncomfortable with a slap in the face!

Xu Zhimo didn't dare to refute, his heart was empty, Lu Xiaoman hated Liang Qichao to death in his heart, this old Bush, did he come here to smash the field?

She didn't know, Liang Qichao may have no choice but to say this, first, this is his inner thoughts, he wants to tell the truth, and second, if he doesn't say it, how to say it?

What does the outside public opinion think of Lao Liang?

As soon as Li Tianyi had an accident, Shuangjiang's old face was gone, and as soon as Li Qiming hit someone to death, Li Gang was also finished.

Everyone is talking about it, and that's probably what they say.

The newspaper has already approved Xu Zhimo enough, there is no need to fry cold rice, but it is different when it comes to Liang Qichao, this is a new target, a very good subject.

At least under Song ML's hints, the big newspapers in China paid attention to the wedding.

If Liang Qichao sang praises, then the newspaper would have written it.

Personally, I think the second reason is malicious speculation, and the first reason is the reason why Liang Qichao is mad, but it cannot be ruled out that if he doesn't do this, outside public opinion will embarrass him, which may be inevitable.

Seeing Liang Qichao talking endlessly without pausing, Xu Zhimo couldn't stand it anymore, and said stubbornly: "Teacher, save some face for students and high halls!" ”

Liang Qichao saw that everyone's eyes were not good, and he understood that his words had angered everyone, and if he continued to talk about it, he would probably start a fight!

I had to stop, "Anyway, I hope this is the last time you get married, this is my blessing, I'm done!" ”

Good fellow, this old man has finally stopped!

Everyone thought in unison, and their hearts were relieved.

Liang Qichao sat for a while and felt that he had smashed the field so hard, and felt that he had no face to stay and leave, and the atmosphere became happy again, but it was a little bit of a strong smile.

When Lu Xiaoman returned to the room, tears flowed out!

threw himself on the bed and cried loudly.

Although Liang Qichao was counting Xu Zhimo and did not name her, the accusations against her were even worse than Xu Zhimo, and she finally held back her tears when she was outside just now.

"The most embarrassing things have been experienced, is there anything more sad than today? After this experience, we are free, and the future will be better and better! ”

Xu Zhimo comforted Lu Xiaoman, and when he said this, Xu Zhimo's eyes were also red, and the couple hugged their heads and cried in the room - love and freedom, why is it so difficult?

Maybe they are not wrong, or not so wrong that they will not bear such embarrassing humiliation, but they are wrong in the era of the alternation of the old and the new!

After a while, "You can't bully me in the future!" Be nice to me, spoil me and love me. Lu Xiaoman looked at Xu Zhimo with rain.

"Hmmm! Love you in this life! Xu Zhimo nodded solemnly.

"It's not easy for me to raise, huh? Can't you dislike me in the future? Lu Xiaoman said coquettishly.

"There's no way, and I can't return it, no matter how difficult it is, I can only admit it!" Xu Zhimo said with a smile.

The cost of pampering you and loving you is not low, look at this villa, look at your daily expenses, but I also admit it, it's a big deal to find a few more jobs!

The pressures of life have never been so clear. (To be continued.) )
