"Yes, I'm Jiang Fangzhen, I don't know who you two are?"

Jiang Baili stopped his pace and turned half of his body, his face full of questions.

Cheng Nuo stepped forward quickly, handed over his business card, and said politely: "The contemptible person is a professor of mathematics at Peking University, surnamed Cheng Mingnuo, and the name of Mr. Jiuwen. ”

It's not that Cheng Nuo is out of shape, but that the person in front of him really has some military talent, and he can put forward the military theory of protracted war with the great man, which is enough to witness his military talent, and Cai Ye and Zhang Xiaozhun are regarded as the "Three Heroes of China".

During his study in Japan, he graduated from the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School with the first place in the infantry department, and according to the custom, he was given a sword by the Japanese emperor, which was considered a great shame by the Japanese students.

Later, the non-commissioned officer school had no choice but to separate the classes of Chinese and Japanese students, which prevented our students from winning the first place again.

After returning to China, Jiang Baili studied Eurasia and was the first person to systematically introduce advanced Western military theories to China in modern times, and he was also the main architect of the Nationalist Government's war plan against Japan.

His masterpiece "On National Defense" became the basis for the strategic guidance of the Chinese armed forces throughout World War II, an important foundation of China's national defense strategy for the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and is regarded as the foundation work of China's modern national defense theory.

Of course, what is even more commendable is that he also has a good son-in-law.

No, Cheng Nuo's reputation at this time is much greater than his, and after hearing his self-introduction, Jiang Baili quickly stepped forward and said politely: "You are the famous Professor Cheng, you really have admired him for a long time." ”

As he spoke, he touched his body up and down, took out his business card and handed it over with both hands: "Contemptible Jiang Fangzhen, the word is 100 miles, if the professor doesn't dislike it, just call me 100 miles." ”

Looking at the introduction on the business card above, Cheng Nuo couldn't help but be taken aback: "Mr. Baili, it turns out that you are now the 'presidential adviser', and I think that Mr. Lai will definitely be able to show his talents in his position." ”

It's okay not to say this, but Jiang Baili's face suddenly darkened as soon as he said this: "Living in idleness, sipping cold soup, I know that I am a guest in my dreams." That's all in the past, what a presidential adviser is, it's just a plaything in the palm of someone else's hand, and it will only make people laugh when they say it. ”

Just when Cheng Nuo was about to say a few words, Cai Yuanpei, who was walking in front, heard the movement here, and turned back curiously: "Zhiyuan, have you met a friend here, why don't I wait for you first?" ”

Jiang Baili suppressed his negative emotions: "Professor Cheng, I see that you still have something to do here, why don't we talk about it another day?" ”

Cheng Nuo promised: "Okay, I see that your business card is your personal address, and I will definitely visit you another day." ”

With that, the arch hand left on its own.

Looking at the background of Chengnuo Park, Jiang Baili muttered to himself: "I also laugh at the fame and fortune of Chang'an, and the red dust is half a horse's hoof." ”

The guy inside was curious: "Mr. Jiang, what are you talking about?" ”

Jiang Baili immediately withdrew his gaze and said politely: "It's okay, it's just a little sigh, by the way, last time Mr. Smiles's book, do you still have German and Japanese versions, I always feel that the English version looks a little strange, find other languages to refer to." ”

The guy frowned and thought: "I'm really hard to say this, I usually ask Manager Zhang, but today you are really unlucky, drunk and rested......"

……

On the way, Cai Yuanpei seemed to be hiding his thoughts, although he tried his best to answer the conversation with Cheng Nuo, but if he was a little careful, he would find that he was a little absent-minded.

However, since the other party did not express it directly, Cheng Nuo was not too embarrassed to ask, in case it was a family matter, it was really embarrassing for the person who said it, and the listener would be a little embarrassed.

When passing by the Sanqing Theater, Cai Yuanpei suddenly said inexplicably: "I heard that there is a little flower face inside, called Zhang Baisui, who is both pure and ugly at the end of his life, and what he learns is like something, and there are people who are addicted to Zhou Lang for a while."

I listened to his main "The Biography of Opera Fans" and learned a few sentences of Liu Hongsheng, which is quite fascinating. Learn a few more words of Mei Lanfang, which is also quite similar. Suddenly, Gong, suddenly, Huang San, are all very interesting. ”

Although I don't know what Cai Yuanpei wanted to say, Cheng Nuo still instinctively cooperated: "It's so good, presumably this gentleman is already very popular with fans, why don't you ask Cai Gong to come over and listen to it today." ”

Cai Yuanpei smiled and waved his hand, glanced at the theater and walked straight forward: "I'm thinking, this Zhang Baisui knows how to deal with the world very well." In today's era, no matter which world you mix in, no matter what you do, you have to learn from Li 100 years old. If you want to talk about dealing with people, you should be honest first, and now you will talk about slippery. ”

Cheng Nuo instantly understood what was going on, and said with a smile: "In the past, I was honest and lost, but now I have to be sad." Occasionally, you have to play a little tricky, and occasionally you have to be honest, divide people and things, and say what you see when you see someone. ”

Cai Yuanpei smiled and nodded: "If the son can be taught, what kind of face and what kind of occasion should be different from person to person, and it should be done according to things." ”

Looking at the face painting hanging at the entrance of the theater, Cheng Nuo's eyebrows rose: "For example, you have to fill your face with hair and flowers, and you will blow up blindly." Sometimes you have to learn three flower noodles and make a dog thing. Sometimes you have to be upright and make a decent appearance, sometimes you have to learn martial arts, and sometimes you have to learn to be red, ever-changing, and grasp it yourself. ”

Cai Yuanpei was very satisfied with this answer: "After learning Hongjing, I have to change again in a blink of an eye." The hairy face will be fried, and it will have to be turned into two flowers again. In this filthy world, it is easy to suffer losses if you always see people with one face. ”

patted Cheng Nuo's chest gently, and then said softly: "Recently, Beijing is a demon world, and bizarre things have been heard of day by day, which is not contained in "Qing Yilu", making up for the shortcomings of "Phantom Record", which is glamorous and appalling, so be careful in everything." ”

Cheng Nuo bowed slightly: "Thank you Gong Cai for teaching." ”

Cai Yuanpei laughed: "I didn't say anything, you realized it yourself, and it has nothing to do with me." By the way, it's all at the door of the house, hurry up and come in and sit down, I will ask the insiders to make a few Shaoxing dishes, so that you can taste it, I saw you just now but you were not full. ”

Cheng Nuo hurriedly refused: "No need, Cai Gong, even if I haven't eaten enough, I'm drinking over there, I'll talk about it another day." ”

Saying that, he beckoned a rickshaw to come over, and Cheng Nuo sat on it and left.

Only the helpless Cai Yuanpei was left here and shouted: "By the way, there is another important matter, our Peking University is going to carry out the reform of the academic system, and you are not allowed to ask for leave at that time." ”

In the distance, I can only hear the echo of the wind: "No problem......"

In addition to the fact that there is something to do, Cheng Nuo does not particularly want to get too close to Cai Yuanpei, after all, the two classes are opposite in the future, and if there is really a well-known conflict in history, the two sides are likely to have some distance contradictions, and no one can say what will happen to each other.

At the moment, the relationship between teachers and friends is enough, and there is no need to get too close.

After returning home for a short rest, Cheng Nuo took the prepared gift and went to Jiang Baili's house to visit him in person.

On the way, Li Laosan also nagged: "Sir, if you want me to say, you don't have to carry these big bags and small bags, just take the ticket, how easy, what do they want to eat, when to eat and take it yourself, it's really not light." ”

Sitting in the carriage, Cheng Nuo smiled and said, "What, there is still such a saying in Beijing City?" ”

Li Laosan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "That's not it, put our old Beijing aside, give gifts, and issue invoices to talk." Categories such as boots and hats, banquets, dumplings, tea, rice noodles, candles, etc., all of which cannot be invoiced, except for the coffin, there is no invoice, and the rest is all. ”

Cheng Nuo smiled and nodded: "It is indeed more suitable for gift-giving, go in the sleeve and go in the sleeve, save the swagger, the master of the gift, when you love to take it, you can also give it to others, you can get it in one fell swoop." ”

Li Laosan grinned and said, "That's right, that's the reason." ”

Cheng Nuo knocked the gift box Bang Bang Xiang: "We are not asking for apprenticeship, we don't need to be so particular, there are still some children's toys in it, and this thing generally has no tickets." ”

Li Laosan pondered it carefully and said with a smile: "Also, I am the emperor who is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry, and Mr. is me who is too talkative." ”

The two chatted while hurrying, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the address given on the business card.

After carefully checking the house number and confirming that it was correct, looking at the garden in front of him, Li Laosan couldn't help but sigh: "This is really magnificent." ”

Also, Lu Xun was able to spend 3,765 yuan to buy a courtyard house, and he was a house slave for a period of time in the middle, and he paid off the mortgage for several months, even so it was already very remarkable.

And the cost of Jiang Baili's yard is even more, a full 3,950 yuan.

Before Li Laosan finished sighing, Cheng Nuo stepped forward and rang the doorbell.

It wasn't long before the sound of creaking footsteps could be heard inside, and the door was opened, revealing a young woman in her twenties.

After seeing Cheng Nuo, he said very politely: "This gentleman, who are you looking for?" ”

Cheng Nuo handed over the business card and said politely: "I am looking for Mr. Baili, I made an appointment to visit him at the door of the Commercial Press, is Mr. at home?" ”

The woman looked at Cheng Nuo's business card, and her attitude softened a lot: "It turns out that you are Professor Cheng, welcome, welcome, Bailijun is at home, please come in." ”

"Hundred miles...... Monarch? Cheng Nuo put a big question mark in his heart, but he didn't show it, but smiled all over his face and walked into the courtyard under the guidance of the woman.

Sure enough, after seeing Jiang Baili's real person, Cheng Nuo's idea was verified, and the woman in front of him was a genuine Japanese.

Talking about his wife, Jiang Baili's face was full of love: "After returning to China, I served as the principal of Baoding Military Academy, but unfortunately Shangfeng deducted military expenses, and in anger, he wanted to kill himself by drinking bullets. ”

Jiang Zuomeixiu, who was bowing down to serve tea on the side, blushed slightly: "It was originally my duty to treat diseases and save people, mainly because Bailijun figured it out by himself, and it was really a prize." ”

After serving the tea, Jiang Zuomei got up to say goodbye and did not participate in the conversation between the two men.

Watching his wife's departure, Jiang Baili sighed with emotion: "If I hadn't been advised at that time, saying that we should put the country first, it is not easy for the country to cultivate such a talent, and it is easy to die, but only by living can I serve the country, and I will not live to this day." ”

Cheng Nuo hurriedly persuaded: "Mrs. Ling is right, only by living can we usher in a glimmer of vitality for the future of this country, as for what Mr. Baili said, I don't agree, I can only say that I haven't met Bole, and I'm just dormant for the time being." ”

Jiang Baili smiled but said nothing, and after taking a sip of tea, he said slowly: "The crown is covered with Jinghua, and the people are alone and haggard." Living is living, no need to beautify, then again, Professor Cheng will speak more Chinese, it just so happened that I was recently at home and translated the British scholar Smiles's "Theory of Duties".

However, some sentences are not easy for me to grasp, and I always feel that the taste is bad after translation, so I just ask you to come and correct them. ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but say, took out a huge pile of scratch paper, and handed it to Cheng Nuo to see.

Taking advantage of Cheng Nuo's effort, Jiang Baili was a little embarrassed and said: "I'm not afraid of Professor Cheng's laughter when I say it, I just wanted to see if I could save a manuscript fee, and I gave Zuo Mei 4,000 yuan to let her go home to save her relatives, but I didn't expect her to buy the alley where the Beixinqiao pot was burned without moving."

It's a pity that there are unforeseen circumstances, people have good fortune and misfortune, the family is there, but the debt is also owed, this is not just thinking to see if I can open the source, I didn't expect to be able to really let me pick up a baby. ”

Speaking of which, although Jiang Zuomei is a Japanese, she is indeed extremely attentive to Mr. Jiang Baili. At that time, when the year was good, Jiang Baili's monthly salary was 400 yuan, and he still handed over 200 yuan to his wife to take care of the family as usual, and then sent 50 yuan to his mother in Zhejiang, and the rest was used as his own communication expenses.

Jiang Zuomei learned from the great writer Su Dongpo, divided 200 yuan into firewood, rice, oil, salt, hydropower, etc., and stored them in bags.

In this way, she was in good order, but unfortunately Mr. Jiang Baili was a person who made friends all over the world, so he often ate food.

When she was overstretched, Jiang Zuomei came to hang up the war-free card, the guests came and didn't see it, the phone rang and didn't answer, I really couldn't hide, the meeting was a sentence of "see you next month", and the rest was a Japanese dialect, so that the other party didn't know what to do.

Thinking of this, Jiang Baili couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The ancients Yun Liye first got married, Professor Cheng, I see that you are not young, you must deal with the affairs of the backyard neatly first, and then you can devote yourself more fully to the battle." ”

The corners of Cheng Nuo's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't answer the topic, pointing to the manuscript in his hand and asking: "That's why I will do my best to develop a strong will." If the will is not established, the integrity will fall, and the morality will lose its light, and the truth will lose its strength, and it will eventually be contrary to morality.

Mr.'s translation is completely up to the standard of Xindaya, and I don't think there is any need to change it, but in modern Shengxing vernacular, I don't know if Mr. has this consideration? ”

"Vernacular?" Jiang Baili hesitated for a moment, and then hesitated: "Professor Cheng, you might as well elaborate." ”
