Chapter 432: After Dusk
Throughout December, Zhang Shusheng inspected various places in the republic non-stop, especially some high-tech projects and top-notch factory projects, which were the targets of his key inspections.
From the most basic high-precision lathe factory, to the high-end satellite parts factory, from the new agricultural technology, to the desert transformation project, all projects that have a significant impact on the national economy and people's livelihood can be seen.
1946 is about to pass, Zhang Shusheng does not want to waste time, all this is for the 1947 Great Leap Forward in science and technology, said to be the Great Leap Forward, in fact, it is to launch many key strategic projects, concentrate the country's manpower and material resources to tackle major scientific and technological projects, some major national defense and military projects such as Fuxi to carry out the final sprint, because 1947 is destined to be a year of rapid development of the empire.
From science and technology to industrial development, from agriculture to economic development, from civilian to military development...... On Saturday, December 28, when he returned to his home in Hanjing Mountain, he found that his godfather had not returned. Lantai, who obviously had something on his mind, waited sullenly for a day, and finally waited for his godfather who had just returned from the Northeast.
"Godfather!!
Seeing Zhang Shusheng coming back, Yutai hurriedly stepped forward to take his coat and hang it up, and the two walked into the study. "Godfather, I'll make you tea."
Looking at the busy Tangtai, Zhang Shusheng's mood of running a little boring in the past month has instantly improved a lot, and there is a youthful and lively atmosphere on the platform, which can affect people very much. Coupled with her beautiful appearance, the little princess is pure and lovely, and the whole person is like the impression of Zhang Shusheng when he first saw his girlfriend in his previous life, the girl with long hair fluttering, always wearing a white dress, and her face will unconsciously show a little shyness, and it is easy to blush.
Tantai Jingming, although so many years have passed, Zhang Shusheng has not forgotten at all, there is always a place for her in her heart, but now, the nostalgia for her ex-girlfriend has been shared a little by Shantai Luoyu.
After all, Zhang Shusheng returned to this era, there was no time difference in the middle, and he came here directly from the postmodern era, and the time he was separated from his girlfriend was only thirty years. Some people are rich and forget the chaff, but Zhang Shusheng is the opposite, now he lacks nothing, he has everything, but he always inadvertently thinks of Jing Ming.
Looking at the little girl in front of her bending over to make tea, Zhang Shusheng seemed to be in a trance for a moment, in the later life, every time she was tired and staggered home, she would always make a pot of tea for herself, and even the bending action was so similar.
"Could it be that I am so obsessed with Jingming because of Luo Yu......"
It's just a blink of an eye, Zhang Shusheng couldn't help but shake his head and disperse the picture in front of him, and what caught his eye was the little girl leaning down and putting the brewed pot of tea in front of her table. The little girl is also 19 years old, and she has just been admitted to the Imperial University (formerly Huaxia University) and is a botany student.
That year, when I saw her for the first time, the dazed and helpless little guy was only 5 years old, and it was still 1932. Now, 1947 is about to turn around, and the little girl will soon be 20 years old.
Yutai bent down, the V-neck sweater slightly showed some spring light, Zhang Shusheng frowned, and said unhappily, "Girl, you are not allowed to wear this kind of clothes outside next time, it is very unsightly." ”
"I didn't, I was careful when I was outside......"
"Then you're saying you're doing it on purpose now......"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Shusheng felt that something was wrong, and sure enough, the little girl's face turned red. Tantai's status in the family has always been very peculiar, and even He Ning and Lu Yunyan secretly instilled some strange thoughts into the little girl, Zhang Shusheng didn't have time to delve into it, but the attachment that this girl has shown to herself in recent years has been visibly rising.
The world is peaceful, family chores are difficult to do, and Zhang Shusheng's psychology is undoubtedly complicated. He really wanted to see Tantai as his daughter completely, or even his own daughter, but he knew that in front of this goddaughter, he could only regard her as a goddaughter at most.
With his current EQ and IQ, it is not that he has not seriously considered the problem of Yutai Luoyu. However, it is always a mess. The key to this is that the shadow of the quiet tea in the heart always exists. treats Luo Yu as her own daughter, and the shadow will jump out against it. treats Luo Yu as a girl, and he is afraid that what he really can't let go of is just Tantai Jingming, so he will be sorry for Luo Yu, a little girl. As for other worldly rituals, he never cared so much.
Although He Ning accepted Shantai as her adopted daughter, in the official title, she has always been called a distant relative, and even on the citizenship certificate, Shantai's identity is also hung in the name of the He family, which is requested by He Ning.
"Godfather, after the New Year, I will be 20 years old~"
Tantai sat beside Zhang Shusheng, leaning on him as usual, feeling a very safe and quiet feeling. In her heart, Zhang Shusheng is not exactly the master of the empire, but a person who has always accompanied her.
"When you grow up, when you grow up, your godfather will prepare a dowry to marry you off, and I will let you marry in the glory of the princess of the empire. Hehe. Zhang Shusheng said with a smile, although he knew that what he said was very false, and the fake could not withstand any doubts.
"Don't. If that's the case, I'd rather always be by your side, forever...... Godfather, hug me, you haven't hugged me in a long time. ”
Yutai didn't know what he thought, tears quietly slipped from the corners of his eyes, leaned on Zhang Shusheng's arms, and slowly lay in his arms. However, what she felt was not fatherly love, a feeling that had nothing to do with fatherly love, not mixed with any superfluous things, it was so quiet, warm, and familiar...... She has only one best friend, Fu Huiyu. I don't know why, but she just became her best friend and the only friend with her. Others, either in awe of her, or respect her, or fear her, or are ashamed of themselves, or completely strangers, she does not even have a superfluous friend.
She once said to Fu Huiyu, "The happiest thing in this life is to meet my godfather, and the thing I regret the most is to be his daughter." ”
"Godfather, let me beg you once, okay?" Yutai's voice was faint, as if he was whispering.
"Hmm!" Zhang Shusheng groaned slightly and nodded seriously.
"Don't marry me off to anyone else."
“…… Well, I promise you! ”
“……”
After a long time, Zhang Shusheng hugged Luo Yu and drank tea, only to find that she was asleep, so he pulled the blanket over her and let her sleep without moving. He understood the little girl's thoughts, but compared to this matter, even in the face of the military and political affairs of an empire, he had never felt so tricky.
She slept for half an hour before waking up leisurely, and when she opened her eyes and saw her godfather holding herself as before, she didn't move for fear of waking herself, and she smiled. "Godfather, do you know why I woke up?"
"I don't know."
"Because I dreamed that your tea was running out, giggle."
"Hahaha......" Zhang Shusheng looked down, and sure enough, the tea was drunk unconsciously, and the little girl was really a coincidence.
Soon, the new tea was brewed, and Yutai sat opposite Zhang Shusheng and said, "Godfather, you are a busy person now, let me keep an eye on it when my mother left in the morning, and once you come back, give her a call." ”
"Why didn't you just say that?" Zhang Shusheng said with a smile, in fact, he called He Ning, who was on a business trip to Hangzhou, as soon as he got off the plane.
"I want to stay with you a little longer, or you won't leave me alone on the phone with your little mother." Tantai squinted his eyes and smiled.
"You naughty little girl, say it, your eyes have told me that you have something in your heart." Zhang Shusheng's observation was terrifying, he had already seen that there was something he wanted to say in his heart, and his dodging gaze was organizing language for what he wanted to say.
"Alas, you guessed everything." Yutai pouted slightly and walked to the small desk, took a very kawaii schoolbag on it, opened it and took out a letter, a very simple white envelope, blinked his eyes, and said slyly, "A very beautiful, very well-behaved, very, very indescribable classical beautiful girl to your godfather, this time it's so beautiful that godfather you." ”
Zhang Shusheng smiled and shook his head, he was high up all day long, and he was admired by thousands of people everywhere, so he could only experience the feeling of home when he returned home, and Tangtai made him feel different from being the head of the empire.
When I opened the envelope, there was only a piece of plain paper with a faint fragrance.
Just when he smelled it, his heart couldn't help but waver. With his memory and taste nerves, he could easily distinguish that it was the fragrance on Fu Huiyu's body, and he dared to guarantee that this letter must have been kept close to her for a long time.
There was only a short sentence on the letter.
"I want to see you!"
Zhang Shusheng flipped through it, but found no extra words.
"Godfather, don't turn it over, just one word." Yutai smiled slightly, leaned over and said mysteriously, "Because she showed me in advance, if she doesn't show it to me, I won't bring her a letter, so her letter won't reach you, the high-ranking chairman of the Imperial Committee, giggle~"
"I'm not free for children."
Zhang Shusheng couldn't help but show that very classical and beautiful girl in his mind, just in terms of beauty, she is the most beautiful and classical girl Zhang Shusheng has ever seen, and she can be called a closed moon. Fu Huiyu's physique is extremely special, in many places in the universe where pure internal civilization or external civilization and internal civilization coexist, a woman like her is called the golden key of internal civilization, which shows its rarity.
He does not deny that he has an instinctive impulse from the deepest part of his body when facing her, even much stronger than when facing Tantai, but when it comes to feelings, it is not much, he can only say that he has a good impression and attraction, and his charm is also very high.
"She guessed it again." Yutai pouted.
"Huh?" Zhang Shusheng said strangely.
Shantai: "She said that her feelings can't be wrong, and she found out your ** for her from the three times she met you." At the same time, she also feels her feelings for you from the depths of her soul. She said it was love at first sight, but she said, you must not admit it, because she has seen dodge from your gaze three times. ”
"It's... How dare this girl say anything. Zhang Shusheng said loudly.
"She's so bold to me alone, godfather, and she's only one friend to me...... And, when she said it, it was with a kind of piety, not any exaggeration. He shook his head.
“……”
"She also said that if God can grant her a wish, she hopes that she is a princess, and godfather you are a commoner." ”
"Why?"
"She said that only then can she have the initiative and be with you regardless of the world and the gap in status."
"Little ......" Zhang Shusheng wanted to say that the psychology of children, but he couldn't say anything. In fact, whether it is Fu Huiyu or Tantai Luoyu, they are both girls with extremely rich inner feelings, maybe they are worse than him in terms of knowledge, wisdom, and a lot of things, but they must not be bad for what a woman should have. "Okay."
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Shusheng finally replied affirmatively. He knew that even if he quibbled, he would never be able to deceive Tantai, not to mention that Tantai himself was a smart elf, and he couldn't bear to deceive her.
Face the ** in your heart and don't deceive the little girl, this is Zhang Shusheng's insistence. He even doubted that if he suddenly asked him if he liked him, he would probably answer in the same affirmative.
It's just that he didn't dare to ask, so he didn't have to answer.
…… In 1947, on January 1, on the evening of New Year's Day, an ancient street in Hanjing.
A very classical and beautiful girl, wearing a snow-white down jacket, sat on a bench on the street, this ancient street that has been protected and developed, in this slightly cold winter evening, but there are few pedestrians, and the afterglow of dusk shines into the ancient street, sprinkled with many mottled spots.
She raised her head slightly, looking at the traces of time on the stone wall on the wall, slightly distracted, and suddenly, she seemed to feel something, turned her head slightly, and looked at the entrance of the ancient street.
At the entrance of the ancient street, in the evening sunset, a tall and handsome man walked in. The chilled sunset sprinkled on him, giving people an alternative feeling.
"You're three minutes late." The girl stood up and said with a smile.
"If I say it's to make me feel guilty about you, would you believe it?" Zhang Shusheng said with a smile, he just changed his facial muscles briefly, and he didn't look much different from his original image, but he was actually not a person's face at all, but Fu Huiyu still recognized him at a glance, to be precise, he felt it first, and then recognized it.
"Hmm." Fu Huiyu nodded affirmatively.
The two walked together to the depths of the ancient street, the long ancient street, as if there was no end to the stone road, the high stone wall, not even a single superfluous pedestrian, occasionally one or two old artists carrying the load of goods passed by, and they all smiled with blessings to the two young people who gave way.
Fu Huiyu: "The beautiful women that the ancient emperors met when they went out were either versatile or beautiful. I'm glad I can stop thinking of you as the one who stands up for a while. ”
"The easiest thing for the world to remember is that face, and now I am not him, don't think about it." Zhang Shusheng said with a smile. "Moreover, in fact, you are stronger than those so-called beauties that the emperor has encountered, and you are both talented and beautiful."
"Thanks for the compliment. Perhaps, it's just that you're much stronger than those emperors. Fu Huiyu said with a slightly wry smile.
Zhang Shusheng was slightly silent, he also knew that when two people were together, the emotional foundation and material foundation were necessary factors, but at this time, he understood the reasons why those emperors in ancient times fell in love with folk women. It's very simple, because many times, the emperors who are tall and complete are actually eager to return to simplicity, and they also have the side of ordinary people. If you want to be a tall master, you will definitely be bound by countless shackles, and only by doing what you want can you do your best.
"It's so depressing, I'll tell you a story."
Zhang Shusheng stopped slightly and said to her, Fu Huiyu nodded, this is a good way.
Zhang Shusheng began to speak slowly, "...... Many, many years ago, there was a boy. His family was very poor, very poor, and there was not a single learned scholar in his family for dozens of generations. His grades in school were very good, and his family had very high hopes for him. Father and mother were reluctant to eat or wear, but they did everything they could to make him better.
That year, he was in his first year of high school.
Shortly before the final exam, just during the Dragon Boat Festival, my father took the dishes cooked by the family for the festival and walked more than ten miles of mountain roads to the school to find him. Because of the poverty of his family, some chicken and duck dishes that the world looks down on are rare and delicious in the eyes of his family and him.
However, his father did not find him in the school dormitory, and only after asking his classmates did he find out that he was still in the classroom.
So, my father went to the classroom with the food and prepared to call him for lunch.
However, the father who still had the mud on his trouser leg saw not a son who was struggling to write books and review for exams, but a son who was reading a martial arts novel with relish.
His father slapped him loudly, startling the rest of the class.
Subsequently, his father took him to the restaurant outside the school to heat up the dishes, and then sat on the table, he was reluctant, but said earnestly: "Eat more, your mother said to bring you more, the exam is going to ......"
Finally finished telling this little story, Zhang Shusheng turned around and looked at the girl who listened with a quiet face, "Do you think the story is boring?" ”
Fu Huiyu shook his head.
Zhang Shusheng said with a smile, "If you can guess what I am telling this story for, our fate will definitely have a result, and it will not be affected by any worldly influence." Someday, I will definitely marry you. ”
Fu Huiyu smiled slightly, spread out his palm, and there was a 1 yuan coin in it, and the upward end was engraved with Zhang Shusheng's head. "As a girl, I should be reserved. I'll guess yours first, and then, when it's my turn, I'll leave it to decide. ”
Zhang Shusheng nodded.
Fu Huiyu looked at Zhang Shusheng, as if he could see the deepest part of his heart, especially the two eyes staring at him, as if they had entered his heart, and said word by word, "What you want to say is that in fact, you are also an ordinary person. Because, the story is who you are. ”
Zhang Shusheng smiled, smiled very easily, and then said quite confidently, "It's your turn." ”
"If it's a head, I'll allow myself to be with you."
Fu Huiyu spread out his hand, stared at the coin for a moment, and then tossed it up, and the churning coin under the sunset light refracted a flash of light, and then landed firmly in the palm of his hand.
Spread out hands, coins, heads.
The little girl smiled happily, then clutched the coin tightly and looked at Zhang Shusheng proudly.
Zhang Shusheng also smiled, and for the first time pulled up her left hand, which was nervously grabbing the corner of her clothes, and said, "The state affairs are not settled, the world is undecided, when you graduate, I will marry you." ”
It's just that he will never tell Fu Huiyu that at the moment when the coin jumped, with his super eyesight, he had already seen that both sides of the coin were human heads.
