Chapter 15 Chapter Fourteen

one Tao Siyong turned 20 on the first Sunday of summer vacation.Because it was a birthday, and China has always had the rule of men being singles and women being doubles, President Tao decided to make a big deal for his daughter. After many inquiries, I learned that there is a new western chef who cooks western food at the German foreign company, who can make very delicate western-style desserts called birthday cakes.President Tao personally invited this person to his home, and after several days of busy work, he made a nine-layer cake with a height of more than one meter. In addition to carved cream, each layer was also decorated with various seasonal fruits.It was also the first time for Tao Siyong and Xiang Jingyu to see such a big birthday cake. After looking at it for a long time, Si Yong said, "Dad, it's actually just a birthday. Do you need to be so particular about it?"

President Tao laughed and said, "My daughter is 20 years old, how can she not be particular about it? Besides, your uncle, aunt and your cousin will also come to celebrate your birthday, so you have to give them face!" "It's my birthday, what does it matter to them?" "You will always be a member of his Wang family from now on..." Chairman Tao saw Si Yong's face lowered, and quickly stopped talking, "Don't talk, don't talk, anyway, this birthday, I have to have a lot of fun for you." Si Yong suddenly remembered something: "Dad, can I invite some other friends to participate?"

President Tao smiled and said, "What's wrong with that? It's so crowded!" "That's what you said." "As long as you want, you can invite as many as you like. Even if you invite all the students from the school, I will also open a running table for you." "It's not that exaggerated! Just..." Tao Siyong looked at Xiang Jingyu who was standing aside, "Just two." "Which family's lady is it? I'll ask someone to deliver the post." "No need, the police and I will invite these two people in person."

Tao Siyong pulled Xiang Jingyu and left, President Tao chased after him and shouted: "Remember to come back early, I will wait for you to have a banquet tonight." After leaving the gate of Tao's house, the policeman asked Si Yong, "Hey, who do you want to invite?" Si Yong winked at her and whispered, "Cai Hesen and Mao Zedong." "You're crazy. Miss Tao invites two boys from other schools to come to your house for her birthday. Even if your father doesn't say anything, what will your future father-in-law and mother-in-law think?" "I just want to ask, no matter what they think."

"Okay, please invite, but you have to find someone if you want to invite. It's summer vacation now. Changsha is so big. Where can you find a Mao Zedong?" Si Yong smiled: "I have already found out about this. This summer, Mao Zedong lived in Liu's house and studied at Cai Hesen's house." two It is true that Mao Zedong and Zhang Kundi had already made an appointment to stay in Changsha to study during the summer vacation. Neither of them had any money to rent a house, so they could only make an appointment to stay at Cai Hesen's house.But when Xiao San helped Zhang Kundi deliver luggage to Cai's house early in the morning, he realized that Cai's family had no food to eat. Two of the three rented rooms had been rented out, and even Cai Hesen had no place to live.Xiao San and Zhang Kundi took their luggage and had to go back to Chuyi Primary School where Zisheng taught.

After listening to their explanation for a long time, Zisheng asked, "Where is Runzhi?" Zhang Kundi said: "He said he was leaving in the afternoon, so he probably will be at Cai's house soon?" Zisheng pondered for a while: "Brother Kun, you can stay with me first. Let's go separately, find a few more friends, try to scrape together as much money as possible, and go to Cai's house." Zisheng was busy trying to figure out a solution, while Mao Zedong was still in the dark.After having lunch at school, he crossed the Xiangjiang River in high spirits, came to Yunwan Town, and found the Cai family in the southernmost part of the town.

When I entered the door to look, I saw that the Cai family was moving. In the small room, there was a bed in the middle, surrounded by furniture, books and sundries, and there was almost no place to turn around.Ge Jianhao and Cai Chang are cleaning up inside.Mao Zedong hurriedly put down the luggage roll, and while helping with heavy work such as carrying, he asked, "Auntie, where is Cai Hesen?" While Ge Jianhao was hesitating, Cai Chang had already answered on his behalf, "My brother has moved to Aiwan Pavilion." Mao Zedong understood immediately, and did not speak, just moving things.

It was nearly dusk when Mao Zedong finished his help. He carried his luggage and headed straight to Yuelu Mountain and went up the stone path.The weather was extremely hot, and the clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, rushing over from the distant mountains. Dragonflies were flying around on the mountain road. Mao Zedong thought that it would rain heavily, so he couldn't help speeding up his pace. Inside the Aiwan Pavilion, an old straw mat is spread on the ground in the middle, a bamboo basket of books is placed on the railing of the pavilion, and a few neatly folded simple clothes are next to it.A hemp rope was pulled between the two pavilion pillars, and Cai Hesen was hanging the freshly washed school uniform of the first division on the rope.Probably because of familiarity, a few bold birds were chirping and looking for food not far from him.Mao Zedong's childlike innocence suddenly arose, and he rushed forward suddenly. The birds flapped their wings and flew into the air. Then he said loudly: "In the distance, there is a person in the depths of the white clouds—Cai Hermit. Such a rhyme of Shouyang, the wind of barbarism!"

The two couldn't help but looked at each other and smiled. In the mountain wind, Cai Hesen helped Mao Zedong unpack his luggage: "I'm sorry to let Brother Run accompany me to sleep in the mountains." "The sky is the house, the ground is the bed, and the breeze is with me so that I can enjoy the cool. It's so good!" Mao Zedong lay down on the bedding, and put his hands behind his head, "How can I enjoy this summer unless I sleep in the open in the mountains? The night is cool and cool, can you experience the realm of the unity of heaven and man?" "Don't tell me, I stayed here for one night yesterday. Looking up at the boundless sky and looking down at the majestic mountains, I really felt very happy. It's just a little bad."

Before he could finish his sentence, there was a rumble of hunger in the stomachs of the two of them. The two laughed loudly. At this moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly pierced the sky, followed by a bang, thunder suddenly struck, heavy rain came unexpectedly, and the sky darkened in an instant. Immediately, the vast Yuelu was enveloped in a torrential rain, and the rain was like a curtain. Hanging down from the eaves of the pavilion, blown by the wind, sweeping away the heat and boredom. Cai Hesen packed his clothes and books in a hurry, Mao Zedong stretched his hands in the rain, feeling the coolness and pleasure of the rain, but he still didn't feel satisfied, so he turned around and shouted, "Oh, Lao Cai, do you want to go climbing?"

"climb mountains?" "That's right, taking advantage of the night that is full of mountains to be yours and mine's, in the strong wind and rain, you can climb to the top and see all the mountains, wouldn't it be pleasant!" Looking at the dense raindrops outside the pavilion, and seeing Mao Zedong's eager eyes, Cai Hesen stood up vigorously: "Go!" Mao Zedong grabbed his hand: "Let's go!" The two rushed out of the pavilion in one step, and in the thunder and lightning, heavy rain poured all over them all at once. "Yuelu in the rain, here we come!" Suddenly, a flash of lightning seemed to open a hole in the sky in front of them. After a while, thunder sounded behind them. Mao Zedong laughed loudly, "Lao Cai, let's run faster and see if the lightning is faster or we are faster." People ran wildly, only to hear Mao Zedong's voice shouting, "Lao Cai, let's shout, let's see if the thunder is louder, or our shout is louder!" "Ah... ah..." On the mountain road, the wet Mao Zedong and Cai Hesen roared and ran wildly in the rain. Their shouts cut through the rainy night and shook the sky, like two wild fighters, completely integrated into the nature in the rain. "Runzhi!" "Brother Runzhi!" "Cai Hesen!" In the wind and rain, there were countless faint voices. Cai Hesen stopped and grabbed Mao Zedong, "Is someone calling us?" "There seems to be a lot of people?" The two rushed back following the shouts, only to see Xiao Zisheng, Xiao San, Zhang Kundi, Tao Siyong, Xiang Jingyu, and even Cai Chang. They also came, standing in the Aiwan Pavilion anxiously looking around, Cai Chang stomped his feet anxiously.That's all for Xiang Jingyu, Tao Siyong's shoes, socks, and skirts, which are usually reserved and gentle, are all soaked, and the yellow mud is splashed all over.Seeing the two of them coming out of the woods, Tao Siyong let go of the heart that had been hanging all this time. "Why are you here?" Mao Zedong asked. "I came to see you, today is..." Xiang Jingyu was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xiao Zisheng, "You also asked us, where did you go in such heavy rain?" "Mountain climbing!"" Mountain climbing?" "Yes, I just came down from the top of the mountain." Mao Zedong seemed to have more to say. "It's windy and rainy, climbing a mountain? What are you doing?" Xiao Zisheng asked.It turned out that Mao Zedong had left Cai's house, and the Xiao brothers and Zhang Kun's brothers had pooled their money and rushed to Cai's house. After the Cai family's cooking was settled, they ran into Tao Siyong and Xiang Jingyu to find Mao and Cai to celebrate their birthdays When they learned that the two of them were in Aiwan Pavilion, they went up the mountain together. "What's the matter with the strong wind? What's the matter with the heavy rain? The ancients said: Nayu Dalu, strong winds and showers are overwhelming! Today, Cai Hesen and I have a good experience! Lao Cai, don't you think so?" Mao Zedong turned his head and asked Cai Hesen. "That's right! Wind, bathes my body, rain, bathes my body, strong wind and rain, bathes my soul!" Cai Hesen swept away his usual calmness. "Well said!" Xiang Jingyu couldn't help but let go of his voice and shouted, "Well said! Well said!" Mao Zedong strode back into the rain again, "Come on, what are you doing standing there? Come and feel the wind, the rain, and enjoy the joy of nature!" Cai Hesen also shouted, "Come on, everything come!" Xiang Jingyu blushed, and was the first to throw away the umbrella. The heavy rain poured on her body, and a burst of refreshing coolness hit her whole body. She raised her head, greeted the rain, and shouted heartily: "Comfortable, really comfortable Come on, come and try them all!" Xiao San, Zhang Kundi, and Cai Chang were also deeply affected. One by one, they threw away their umbrellas, let go of all restraints, and rushed into the rain, shouting. Tao Siyong looked at the excited friends in the rain. The reservedness of the young lady was slowly leaving her body. She stepped out of the umbrella she was holding and rushed into the rain.The heavy rain washed her body, she raised her head and stretched out her hands to meet the rain, as if she wanted to wash away all the things that had bound her for the past 20 years, and felt the freedom that was completely liberated from the depths of her soul.She lightly licked the rainwater from the corner of her mouth, and the rainwater turned out to be salty.I don't know when, the tears of bondage and the rain of indulgence have been mixed together, and it is difficult to distinguish which is tears and which is rain. "The mountains and rivers are under my feet! The earth is in my arms! I am the lord of the mountains and rivers in this wilderness, and I am the spirit of all things in the world!" Mao Zedong shouted, grabbing Si Yong's hand with one hand and Cai Hesen with the other, " Come, come together, shout with me, wind—rain—thunder—electricity—" In the vast wilderness, the young people's screams full of free power echoed the primitive and wild natural power, piercing the night sky, and in the flash of lightning, it was like lightning piercing the sky and thunder sweeping the ground! three Tao Mansion searched up and down for the whole night, and almost searched the Changsha city in the rain, and then found out from the ferryman who was pulling the ferry near the pier, that when it was dark, two young ladies crossed the river in their boat. He said he was going to Liu's house, and from the way he dressed, it should be Si Yong and the others. President Tao led his family and servants across the river in a hurry to find them. The wind and thunder gradually died down. Just after passing the town of Yunwan, he heard a whistling sound: I am a madman of Chu, Feng Ge laughed at Kong Qiu. Holding a green jade staff, looking away from the Yellow Crane Tower. Wuyue is not far away from looking for immortals, and I like to travel to famous mountains all my life. Lushan shows off the South Douban, and the screen is covered with nine folds of clouds and brocades. The shadow falls on the bright lake, the blue sky is bright, and the two peaks are long in front of the golden gate. The Milky Way hangs three stone beams upside down, and the incense burner waterfall faces each other... It was Mao Zedong and others who came. They came all the way from Yuelu Mountain, screaming and chanting. Just as they descended the mountain, there was a bright fire in front of them. The big lanterns with the word "Tao" were lined up, and many servants They shouted in unison respectfully: "Miss." Everyone was shocked. Xiao Zisheng looked up and saw President Tao standing in front of many servants with a straight face.He turned back to find Tao Siyong, and saw that she was quietly withdrawing the hand that Mao Zedong had been holding. President Tao took a deep breath, tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and asked in a slow tone, "Si Yong, who are these?" "A few friends of mine." Tao Siyong was uneasy, but a little unwilling, and introduced to Mao Zedong, "This is my father." President Tao looked at the group of people, water was dripping from all of them, shoes, socks, dresses, and mud splashed everywhere. "Si Yong, today is your birthday. Your uncle and aunt have been waiting at home to celebrate your birthday. Let's go home first." President Tao said. "Today is your birthday?" Mao Zedong was a little surprised.Si Yong nodded. "You see why you didn't say it earlier? You didn't even celebrate it..." "Si Yong." President Tao interrupted Mao Zedong, the smile on his face could hardly be maintained, "Let's go." He said, "Thank you all Send Si Yong away, let's go first." Tao Siyong followed his father for a few steps, then suddenly turned around and said to Mao Zedong: "Thank you, and thank you everyone, for allowing me to have the most meaningful birthday ever in my life!" Four Si Yong's back gradually moved away with the carriage, and everyone felt lost. Excited and tired, they planned to disperse. Xiao Zisheng asked, "Jing Yu, where are you going? Zhou Nan seems to have closed the door now." Xiang Jingyu smiled and said, "I'm homeless now, which one of you will take me in." Everyone was stunned for a moment, how could a bunch of bachelors take in a girl.Cai Chang thought for a while and smiled and said, "Go to my house, it's just too crowded. Me, my mother and you share a bed. Sister Jingyu, are you used to it?" Xiang Jingyu replied with a smile: "I don't care, I'm afraid it's too disturbing." Mao Zedong smiled: "That's it, Lao Cai is responsible for sending the two ladies home, and I will go to the Aiwan Pavilion as the head of the pavilion. " Cai Hesen and Cai Chang accompanied the police all the way back to Cai's house, and Cai Chang jumped into the house like a gust of wind: "Mom, we are back." Ge Jianhao was reading a book, when he looked up, he saw a girl with bright eyes and bright teeth beside his son who was in high spirits, looking at her generously. "Mom, this is Miss Xiang Jingyu." Cai Hesen didn't hesitate at all.Jing Yu sweetly called "Auntie" and stared at Ge Jianhao intently.I saw that although she was wearing a coarse cloth jacket, the corners of her eyes were covered with wrinkles, but her eyes were like a deep pool, deep and peaceful, and her manners naturally showed a kind of elegance and tranquility, as if they were born naturally, without any affectation . After Cai Chang changed his clothes, he smiled and handed a set of his own clothes to the police. Ge Jianhao smiled, "Are your clothes okay?" He threw the set of clothes to his son, "Close the door and go out to change." Cai Hesen When she entered the room again, her eyes lit up. Under the pine smoke lamp, Jing Yu was wearing an old-fashioned big red flag dress with gorgeous materials and exquisite embroidery, which reflected her fair face, making her eyebrows even more picturesque and charming.Ge Jianhao looked at Jing Yu, and found a good hanger for the wedding dress that he hadn't worn for many years, and smiled appreciatively: "It's really like when I was young." Cai Chang clapped his hands and shouted: "So beautiful, so beautiful, Jing Yu Sister Yu puts on mother’s clothes, she looks like a newly married young lady.” Out of the corner of Jing Yu’s eyes, she saw the idiot Cai Hesen, and finally became shy, and she picked up the book Ge Jianhao put on the broken wooden table in a panic— —It was a collection of Shelley's poems! "Auntie, are you reading this book?" Jingyu asked in surprise, Ge Jianhao smiled slightly, as if he admitted, "I've been running for half the night, are you hungry? I eat sweet potatoes and boiled wild vegetables at night. I don't have anything else at home. I feel wronged." miss." "Very good, I just happen to try something new." While eating, Jing Yu quietly scanned the surroundings. In the small room, there were not many furniture and sundries, and they were all worn out. Books were everywhere.Ge Jianhao was eating while reading, and picked up a piece of sweet potato, put it into Cai Chang's bowl, and put wild vegetables into his mouth.Jing Yu was dumbfounded, and remembered the old master Liu Yuxi's words: Why is there such a thing? ! After dinner, the night sky after the summer rain was clear and transparent, and the breeze passed by, and Jing Yu's heart fluttered like microwaves.For the first time, she sat quietly beside Cai Hesen and listened to his eloquence. "My mother's name was not Ge Jianhao, but Ge Lanying. My grandfather was a member of Zeng Guofan's army and was a Daoist, so my mother was also a rich lady. When she was young, she and Jianhu heroine Qiu Jin, the first member of the Tongmenghui A female member, Tang Qunying, was once a very good friend, and the three of them even sworn sisters." Jing Yu stared at him with wide eyes, Qiu Jin, Tang Qunying?Cai Hesen smiled slightly and continued: "When I was 16 years old, my mother married my father and became the young mistress of the wealthy Cai family in Xiangxiang. The dress you are wearing is her wedding dress. Later, She gave birth to us. My nickname is Binbin, and everyone in my hometown calls me Master Bin." Jing Yu looked at him suspiciously, hesitated to speak. Cai Hesen saw her doubts and smiled: "You want to ask why you are like this now? Isn't that right? To put it simply, because my mother and father are not the same way. My mother loves reading and has a strong personality. She believes that Men and women should be equal. I believe that society will definitely progress, and that women can also become the pillars of society, so my mother and my father have always had a bad relationship. Later, my father went to Shanghai, learned to smoke opium, and asked for a concubine. My mother I fell out with him completely. Two years ago, my dad took the initiative and accepted a bride price of 500 yuan from a rich man's family, and promised my sister to the son of that family who also smoked opium. Dad is divorced." Jing Yu couldn't bear to listen to his own ears: "Divorce?" "I can't believe it, right? In such a feudal family, a woman actually asked for a divorce! It's simply rebellious and immoral. Of course my dad didn't agree, so he put forward conditions, unless my mother gave up all the family property, not a penny Take it away. He must think that a housewife like my mother who has been a young mistress for half her life will never survive once she leaves her husband's house, so he used such conditions to coerce my mother." "But my aunt just agreed." Jing Yu sighed. Cai Hesen smiled: "Having been a husband and wife for half my life, my dad doesn't know my mother as well as you do. She agreed without hesitation at all, took us siblings, and left that house empty-handed." "So you changed from Master Bin to the current Cai Hesen?" "Being able to be with my mother, what else can't be given up? Do you know? With those hands, my mother supported us brothers and sisters and provided for us to study. She also worked part-time and entered the women's teacher training center." , became the oldest student in Changsha. On the day she entered the school, she changed her current name——Ge Jianhao.” The two of them took a deep breath, the light came through the window, Ge Jianhao's shadow was cast on the window paper, she was mending clothes, Jing Yu felt that the shadow of her mending clothes was indescribably noble! Jing Yu suddenly took Cai Hesen's hand: "You know what? Before, you have always been my idol. Today I know why you became my idol." "why?" "Because you have such a good mother." Fives After a night of heavy rain, the soft sunlight in the morning shines on the leaf tips of the weeping willows outside the Aiwan Pavilion, and the raindrops are crystal clear, shining colorful light.The pond was full, and the swallows flew by, resting on the eaves of the pavilion and whispering. When Yang Changji stepped into the Aiwan Pavilion, Mao Zedong was still asleep, his hands and feet were exposed, and the quilt was kicked aside.Yang Changji stopped gently beside him, bent down to look at him, for more than a year, he had grown more and more appreciative of this young man, and faintly felt that he carried his unfulfilled ideals in his life, he dared not say The hope of the country was seen in him, but it is safe to say that he saw the hope of this era.He is a piece of precious jade that has not yet been polished, and he himself is the jade cutter. Mao Zedong faintly felt a shadow blocking the sunlight, and opened his eyes to see that he was surprised and delighted: "Teacher Yang?" "If Zisheng hadn't told me, are you planning to be a savage in this pavilion for a holiday?" It turns out that the summer vacation is coming, and Yang Changji thinks of the hustle and bustle of the city, and plans to return to his hometown, Bancang, Changsha County. Before leaving, Xiao Zisheng went to say goodbye. Knowing that Mao Zedong was sleeping "between heaven and earth" in Aiwan Pavilion, he was angry and funny, so he decided to take the child to the countryside so that he could study with peace of mind. Mao Zedong turned over, scratched his head and smiled, and hurriedly packed his things. Itakura is not far from Changsha, and arrived in one morning.Along the way, the waves of rice were like the sea, rising with the wind. Mao Zedong followed Yang Changji and turned a small bridge. From a distance, he saw a big house hidden among the green trees, with blue bricks and scaled tiles. There was silence. Yang Changji, who came in first, turned his head and greeted Mao Zedong who was still standing outside the door: "Why are you standing still? Come in." He introduced his wife to Zhongxi and his son Yang Kaizhi: "My student, Mao Runzhi, you I’ve heard you mention it before. Runzhi, this is your teacher’s wife.” Mao Zedong walked in with his luggage and hurriedly bowed to say hello.Xiang Zhongxi looked at this tall and shy young man and nodded with a smile. Yang Changji immediately asked, "By the way, where is Kaihui?" Xiang Zhongxi said: "Who knows where she went crazy again? This girl never stops all day long." Yang Changji didn't take it seriously, and waved to Mao Zedong and said, "Runzhi, come with me." He took Mao Zedong directly to the study, "This summer vacation, you will live here, and I have nothing else here, just like you Books that can’t be read.” Mao Zedong’s eyes immediately became straight—in the huge study room, there were stacks of stacks, one shelf after another, and each floor was full of books. Mao Zedong stepped forward to caress the books layer by layer, greed Stretching out his head, his eyes were wide open, wishing he could take a closer look at them all at once. Yang Changji said with a smile: "Whatever you need in life, just tell your teacher, she will prepare it for you." "No, no, don't want anything," Mao Zedong said incoherently with excitement, "it's enough to have these, enough for everything, enough for everything." He threw the luggage roll on the ground, took out a book, Sitting on the luggage, I couldn't wait to turn it over. Yang Changji came out with a smile, and only listened to his instructions to Zhongxi: "Zhongxi, from today on, cook more meals for two people." "Isn't it just one guest?" Xiang Zhongxi was taken aback.Yang Changji just smiled and said, "Do as I say, that's right." Mao Zedong ignored it and read books there.After an unknown amount of time, a braid suddenly appeared on the book in front of him. When Mao Zedong raised his head, a pair of crystal-clear eyes were staring at him.He squinted his eyes, a little girl with braids, fourteen or fifteen years old, with a pretty round face, curious and provocative. Mao Zedong asked strangely: "What are you looking at?" "Look at you." "What are you looking at me?" "Look at your eyes." "My eyes?" "Look at the difference from ordinary people, and see why my father said that there is a student whose eyes are so bright, so energetic, so determined, and so many lofty ideals are hidden in it." Kaihui exaggerated expression Made Mao Zedong laugh, he pinched her nose, "Oh, I know who you are now, Yang Kaihui, my little junior sister." Kaihui tilted her head and reached out to pinch his nose: "I know you too Who is it. Mao Zedong, my father's favorite student." The two said at the same time and laughed, like good friends who have reunited after a long absence.Kai Hui pulled him, "Let's go, I'm here to ask you to eat, Dad won't let me come while you're reading." Mao Zedong's performance at the dinner table opened the eyes of the Yang family, holding a frighteningly large sea bowl, gobbling it voraciously and tsk-tsk-ing.Kai Hui stared at Mao Zedong's eating in amazement. He quickly filled the first bowl, went to the rice cooker and picked up a large rice spoon. After several times, he piled up another bowl full of rice, and the rice bucket was more than half empty at once. .Kai Hui was dumbfounded, but Xiang Zhongxi looked at Yang Changji and smiled knowingly. Mao Zedong turned around and realized that everyone was looking at him, holding a big bowl, and felt a little embarrassed.Xiang Zhongxi quickly picked up a large chopsticks dish, put it into Mao Zedong's bowl, and said with a smile: "Sit down and eat, Runzhi, I like to see you young people eat a lot, eat a lot, and your body will be healthy." Well, it's just like being at home, don't be polite." For more than ten days in a row, Mao Zedong stayed in the study, regardless of good or bad, the books on the bookshelf were touched and read, and after reading, they were placed on the left hand side, and there were more and more books piled up there.This day, he was looking engrossed, when suddenly a paper-made toad was placed on his head, and when he turned around, he saw Kaihui standing behind him with a smile.He laughed and grabbed the paper toad on his head: "I don't want to be a toad without swan meat to eat." Kai Hui reached out to him, "Come on, take a bite." Mao Zedong said with a smile: "Oh, I ate up my junior sister, so the teacher can't settle accounts with me?" Kaihui snorted and said, "I'm sorry you don't dare!" She sat down beside Mao Zedong: "What are you reading?" She reached out and took the book over, ""Zhuge Liang's Collected Works"? I have read it a long time ago." "How old are you, you only read "Zhuge Liang's Collected Works"?" "Who says I'm young? I'll be in middle school next semester, so what's the point?" "Okay, okay, fourteen-year-old girl. Then I'll take a section to test you." Kaihui became anxious: "I only said I saw it, but I didn't say I remembered it. Don't you remember it after reading it once?" "almost." Kai Hui pursed her lips: "Bragging, I don't believe it!" Turning to a page, "Book of Commandments, memorize it!" Mao Zedong opened his mouth and came: "The way of a gentleman is to cultivate one's morality through quietness, and to cultivate one's virtue through thrift. If you are not indifferent, you will not be able to show your ambitions, and if you are not peaceful, you will not be able to achieve long-term goals. You must be quiet to learn, and you must learn to be talented. You must learn without learning. Without aspirations, there is no way to learn. If you are obscene and slow, you can’t stimulate your energy. If you are aggressive, you can’t cure your nature. Years go by with the time, and the sun goes away, and then you become withered..." "Okay, okay, "Teacher List"!" "The minister said brightly: The first emperor..." "Don't memorize the front, start in the middle. Well, 'you can count the days and wait', start here." "The minister is a commoner, and he works hard to cultivate Nanyang. Gou Quan lives in troubled times, and does not seek to be known to the princes..." Mao Zedong memorized it again in one breath. Unconvinced, Kaihui asked Mao Zedong to dig out all the books he had read. He was determined to fail this senior in the exam, and asked questions tirelessly. When he got to the eighteenth volume of "Five Lanterns Club", Mao Zedong finally made a mistake. Kaihui haha Laughing loudly, he shouted: "I won, I won, you will be punished if you recited it wrong!" Mao Zedong also let her: "Okay, okay, how do you say how to punish, Mr. Yang." Kaihui rolled her eyes: "Well, I will punish you to accompany me to catch fish tomorrow, and you must not go back on your word." Kaihui came early the next morning, pulled Mao Zedong and left, but Mao Zedong had no choice but to follow her out.The two carried fishing rods and baskets on their backs and walked out along the stream. The stream twisted and went straight for several miles, and merged into a port at the foot of a mountain.A bay of green water surrounds the mountains and turns straight to the east. The shore is covered with green grass. The two of them sat down on the grass and looked around.A gentle breeze blows through Kaihui's hair. She is dressed as a country girl, which accentuates her Qingshui Furong face, which is really cute. "How about it, isn't our countryside beautiful?" Kaihui rolled up her trousers, and stretched her white and tender legs into the stream to fiddle. "What is this? It's so-so. I grew up in the countryside, and the side of our house is more beautiful than here! That mountain, that water—you haven't seen it before, it's even more beautiful than the ones in the paintings!" "impossible." "You still don't believe it? There are records in the history books. When Emperor Shun visited us in the south, when he passed by us, he saw the beautiful mountains and rivers and was amazed. He made Shaole for it. Do you know Shaole? Meat taste, that Shao music! Such beautiful music was made after looking at the mountains and rivers in our place, so our place is called Shaoshan, do you think it is beautiful?" "Really?" Hearing what he said, Kaihui felt a little fascinated. "When I was young, at this time of year, I would graze cattle on the hillside opposite our house. On the other hand, I would collect firewood and manure. After picking up, I would lie down on the hillside." Then he lay down on the grass, " When the sun shines and the wind blows like this, it’s so comfortable!” Kai Hui followed his example and lay down beside him. "When I'm free, I'll dig bamboo shoots, catch loaches, climb trees to pick camphor tree fruits, go down to ponds to catch fish, swim in summer, and fly kites in spring. Do it all." "I've played these too, it's not new." "There are also new ones. For example, in our place, the most interesting thing is to sing folk songs. The people on the mountain here will sing with each other. They will ask and answer to see who wins. Those folk songs are really interesting. I still remember." Kai Hui became interested, and stood up: "Then you sing a song and I'll listen to it." "I sing too badly." "If it's bad, it's bad. Since there's no one else, let's sing one." Mao Zedong sat up and said, "Okay, I'll sing you a song about lying. It's a song about lying. It's more ruthless than any other kind of lying. If it's impossible, just sing it. Listen to it." "When I was born, I never sang white songs. When the wind blows, the stones will roll up the slope. When I go out, I will touch the cow and lay an egg. When I come back, I will see the horns of the horse. Four taels of cotton will sink into the water, lol The big stone mill floated across the Da River..." Mao Zedong sang folk songs with his tone-deaf voice, whether he was reciting or shouting. On the road at dusk, Kaihui was holding a handful of light purple wild chrysanthemums, walking very briskly, thinking of Mao Zedong's folk songs along the way, couldn't help laughing, and soon arrived home.As soon as the two entered the door, Mao Zedong couldn't help being stunned: "Lao Cai, Zisheng, why did you come here?" It was Cai Hesen and Xiao Zisheng who came, and Yang Changji put down a newspaper in his hand with a solemn expression: "The two of them are here to deliver this newspaper." "Tan Dudu has been dismissed?!" Kai Hui, who had poured tea by the side, leaned over, looked at the large newspaper headlines, and asked strangely, "Who is Tan Dudu?" Zisheng replied, "It's the old principal of our first division, the governor of Hunan, Tan Yankai." "Then, who removed him?" "Except for President Yuan, who can withdraw the governor of a province?" Cai Hesen answered Kaihui's question, but turned his face to Mao Zedong, "Jiangsu has withdrawn, Zhejiang has withdrawn, Sichuan has withdrawn, Guangdong has withdrawn, and now, It's our turn in Hunan again, and it seems that President Yuan will not rest until the governors of all provinces in China are replaced by people who only obey him." Kaihui still didn't understand and asked: "But isn't the President older than the governor? The governor should obey him." "Kaihui, you still don't understand these things." Cai Hesen said, "Whether it's the governor or the president, those who obey should be the laws of the Republic of China, but now the northern provinces are all from Yuan Shikai's Beiyang family. If the governor of the south is also replaced by his people, then China will have no laws in the future, and only President Yuan will be left." Zisheng went on to say: "Assassinate Song Jiaoren, disband the Kuomintang, control the Congress, and amend the constitution. In the past two years, the power of Yuan Shikai, the great president, has expanded to the limit. Isn't he satisfied? What exactly does he want? Woolen cloth?" "Dictatorship!" In the silence, Yang Changji said, "What he wants is dictatorship!" Both Mao Zedong and Cai Hesen nodded slightly. Zisheng couldn't help sighing: "We don't have to worry about whether the president is dictatorial or not. I'm only worried that Hunan will have a few days of stability when Dudu Tan is here. There will be no peace from now on." Kaihui on the side had never seen such a serious scene, and had been listening nervously. Hearing Zisheng's words, she became anxious: "Really? Well, what about the school? Nothing will happen to the school, right? Nan went to junior high school last week." Zisheng comforted Kaihui, which was also considered self-comfort: "Of course nothing will happen to the school. Education is the foundation of a country. No matter who is in power, whether he is independent or not, he will never make fun of education." Cai Hesen analyzed: "That's hard to say. He can disregard civil rights, he can change the law randomly, and mere education, in the eyes of a dictator, what is it?" "It's fine if you want me to see it!" Mao Zedong, who had been silent all the time, said surprisingly. "Okay?" Zisheng didn't understand. "Yes, good!" Mao Zedong said loudly, "If God wants to destroy a person, he must first make him crazy. He loves jumping, let him jump, and when he has enough jumping, his days should be over. !" "But if he jumps around, China will be in chaos!" "Great chaos leads to great chaos, and chaos changes. It is a cycle of heaven and earth. There is no chaos, and there is no one governance! How did the Three Kingdoms say, 'The general trend of the world, if it is divided for a long time, it must be united, and if it is united for a long time, it will be divided'." "But..." Zisheng continued to say, but Yang Changji raised his hand to stop him: "The world is in turmoil and the fate of the country is full of troubles. It is really worrying whether China will be in chaos and whether it can be governed in chaos. As your teacher, today, I just want to remind you one sentence, no matter how the current situation develops, no matter whether the chaos is coming or not, reading books and seeking the truth is the most important thing for you now. Otherwise, you can’t accumulate strength for the future China. Zisheng, Hesen, Run In short, remember my words, work hard, and prepare for the future." The three nodded. "And me? Am I counted?" Kai Hui suddenly interjected. The teachers and students laughed, and Mao Zedong patted her on the head: "If you want, you should study hard and be prepared. When the time comes, the country will be in trouble, and it will depend on you, Mulan."
