Chapter 61: The Test of Marrying
In 1928, Qin Yue was 24 years old and often wrote some articles, and his tendencies became more and more left.
Because she is already an adult and is doing a great career, even if Qin Di is an elder brother, there is no reason to restrict her freedom.
However, at the end of May of this year, Qin Yue suddenly unilaterally announced at home that she wanted to marry Zhuo Qingqiu, which still shocked everyone!
Zhu Wan and Qin Hancheng were both surprised: "This ...... Ah Yue, don't talk nonsense, you can't joke about this......"
Qin Di felt depressed in his heart: "This person promised me not to provoke my family until he cured his lung disease, but he finally broke his promise!"
Qin Yue said: "Brother, you can't blame Mr. Zhuo for this matter, it's me who wants to marry him, not him who proposes to me! Besides, his illness has been cured!"
Qin Di's face was ugly, and he said: "This disease is mild in summer and severe in winter! Look at what month it is? It is difficult to cure it by penicillin and sulfonamide drugs alone, and we must wait until streptomycin is developed, and other drugs must be added to completely cut off the roots!"
Zhu Wan had also heard him say streptomycin before, and the Institute of Medicine was conducting research in this area, but no breakthrough had been made yet. At this time, she was not concerned about streptomycin, but about her daughter marrying Zhuo Qingqiu!
"Ah Yue, listen to my mother, tuberculosis is difficult to cure and is contagious. Do you want to get lung disease too?"
Qin Yue said: "Mom, I asked Dr. Philip, a professor at St. John's University, and he said that tuberculosis is not too contagious, and not all patients are contagious, as long as my immunity is strong enough, I don't need to be too afraid." ”
Zhu Wan said anxiously: "Although Mr. Zhuo is smart, he is too extreme, I have read some articles written, and he is obviously inclined to the Big Red Party. ”
Qin Yue said: "Mom, I know! Because of this, I want to be with him." ”
Qin Di persuaded: "Ah Yue, I don't object to you writing left-leaning articles, but I oppose you marrying Zhuo Qingqiu, there are two reasons, are you willing to listen?"
"Brother, you say, I'll listen. ”
"First, Zhuo Qingqiu is a member of the Red Party, and he has strict discipline and requirements, and in the future, he will go to the Soviet Union, and he will also go to the mountains, will you also follow? There is not enough food, no warm clothing, there are rough men all around, there are relatively few female comrades, how long can you last as a bourgeois lady?"
"Brother, you are alarmist! Mr. Zhuo said that he would stay in the magic capital and persist in the struggle. ”
"What he said doesn't count! The superiors transferred him, did he dare not go?"
"Then go, I can also endure hardship. ”
Qin Di said: "Second, I told you before that Mr. Zhuo may die in the next few years, what will you do then?"
Qin Yue was anxious: "You are talking nonsense! How can you curse others? You said that Xu Zhimo would die early, but he is currently alive and well! You said that President Li Yuanhong would die, isn't he still alive?"
Qin Di snorted coldly: "If it doesn't drag on for three months, Li Yuanhong won't be able to!"
Qin Yue was so angry that her chest fell together, her dark eyes widened, and she said, "What if he doesn't die?"
Qin Di said: "If there is no news of his death within three months, then I am wrong! From now on, I will never interfere with your freedom! On the other hand, what if he dies in a short period of time as I said?"
Qin Yue bit her lip and said resolutely: "Then I won't marry Mr. Zhuo, it's okay!"
"Okay! That's what you said!"
"A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase!"
To be honest, Qin Di didn't want to interfere with who Qin Yue married, in his impression, women don't have to start from the beginning, even if Qin Yue marries Zhuo Qingqiu first and then remarries later, it's not impossible!
The problem is that if Qin Yue leaves the Demon Capital, participates in the revolution, wanders from place to place, rains bullets, climbs snowy mountains, and crosses grasslands, she is likely to die on the road! Even if Qin Di's skills are very high, she will be beyond her reach! If Qin Yue stays in the Demon Capital, at least she can save her life!
He looked at his sister's face flushed because she was angry, and couldn't help but sigh, and said, "Ah Yue, if you think clearly, make a heart, and resolutely want to marry this person, I won't stop you." From now on, life and death will be in peace!"
Qin Yue's head was raised, and she said, "Yin Fu translated a poem: Life is precious, love is more valuable, if it is for freedom, both can be thrown!"
When Zhu Wan heard this, tears couldn't help but flow: "Ah Yue, don't be so decisive! Listen to your brother honestly! Our family can have today because of him! What he said is very effective, you are in danger with Mr. Zhuo, I don't want to lose you!"
Qin Hancheng was furious: "I'm angry! I'm angry! I'm angry! I'm going to publish a newspaper to scold Ming'er! Find thirty literati to take turns to scold, and if you don't scold the surnamed Zhuo to death, it won't be finished!"
The red on Qin Yue's face faded and gradually turned pale, and said, "Dad, if you really do this, don't want to see me." ”
Qin Di sighed deeply and said, "Ah Yue, in fact, you are not wrong, what is wrong is this era. I told you a long time ago, don't study literature, but you just don't listen! Do you think that a writer is so easy to be? In the past, Sima Qian was tortured by the palace, and then there was a clear breeze and was illiterate, so why bother flipping through books! In less than three or five years, many of your enthusiastic friends will be sacrificed! So you have to think about whether you are really not afraid of death. ”
He put out the terrifying side and let Qin Yue choose for himself. If she wants to become a member of the Great Red Party, sooner or later she will have to endure the test of life and death. But she was just a left-leaning literati at the moment, and she hadn't thought about these things, so her body couldn't help but tremble, and she felt fear from the bottom of her heart.
To be honest, there is no shame in being afraid of death! Some people persist in walking despite being afraid, which is even more admirable!
No matter what Qin Yue chosen, Qin Di would not blame her, he just tried his best to remind her.
Qin Di III was a human being, and he had already looked down on life and death, and the reason why he dissuaded Qin Yue was mainly because he was afraid that his parents would be sad.
As for himself, he will keep all the good things in his heart, and the moment is eternal.
"People always have to die, so many people are dead! Ask for mercy and be merciful, what is the complaint! Some people are alive and they are dead, and some people are dead, and he is still alive. Many people have worked hard all their lives, just living in humility. As a great poet, if you really sacrifice, you will definitely go down in history!"
Qin Di's words made Qin Yue feel shocked!
She locked herself in the house and didn't come out for days.
She didn't expect that her brother, who seemed to have nothing to do, would say something meaningful, which made her feel extremely heavy and a feeling of powerlessness.
Only four days later, on June 3, 1928, Qin Di took a newspaper and knocked on Qin Yue's door.
Qin Yue opened the door, glanced at the newspaper angrily, and saw a line of bold characters on it: "Former President Li Yuanhong died of illness in Tianjin!"
She was taken aback, hurriedly spread out the newspaper and read it carefully, and sure enough, Li Yuanhong passed away at the age of sixty-four.
"Ah, he's really dead? Didn't you say three months? It's only been a few days?"
She was stunned for a moment at the newspaper, then shuddered suddenly, and when she looked up, Qin Di had already left.
Her heart was like being poured with lead, thinking that Zhuo Qingqiu might die early and Xu Zhimo might also fall, she felt extremely sad in her heart, even though it was a hot summer, she felt a chill and a tingling pain on her body.
After a while, Qin Yue calmed down slightly, and said in her heart, "Maybe my brother is a crow's mouth." After all, Li Yuanhong is old, and it is normal for him to die suddenly. Zhuo Qingqiu is still so young, how can he be like him? Xu Zhimo will not die, how could he die early with such a genius figure?"
However, since she made a bet, she couldn't immediately regret it, so she had to suppress the matter, clean up her sad mood, put on light makeup, and walked out of the door.
At this time, the Qin family was already equipped with several cars, as well as full-time drivers.
Qin Yue took a car to Zhuo Qingqiu's apartment in Hongkou District and wanted to see the other party, but she didn't see anyone, only got a letter. It was left to her by Zhuo Qingqiu, saying that she had something important to go to the Soviet Union, and she didn't know when she would be able to come back.
Qin Yue was stunned, remembering what Qin Di said, Zhuo Qingqiu was going to the Soviet Union, and it was fulfilled so soon, and her heart felt even heavier.
