Quick Wear: Supernatural Speed No CP
Chapter 138: Fireworks marking the end of the imperial era! (Republic of China) 4
When people in later generations mention the Republic of China, they would first think of the foreign concessions.
There are even some mentally challenged girls who think they are so talented and beautiful that they can travel back in time to be concubines.
But they didn't think about it, the foreign land was a place for foreigners, what did it have to do with them who were so helpless at that time? !
If they really traveled back to the Republic of China, they might not be looked down upon even if they went to work as odd jobs in the foreign concessions!
And those who dream of being a concubine, what are they thinking?! Why don’t they do it and become a man’s plaything?!
Oh! Then there is no need to go back to the Republic of China, why wear it? Why not just go to the Korean country directly?
Oh, but that also requires good looks and talent. After all, those chaebols have a lot in their mouths! They don’t eat any garbage!
The real Republic of China was a time of economic depression, widespread misery, and countless people who had to bow their heads and sell their bodies and souls in order to survive!
I wonder if you have seen the movie "Crescent Moon" starring Song Dandan? !
The era in which the heroine in the movie lived was the Republic of China.
At that time, the economy was depressed, factories closed down, and even men had a hard time finding jobs, let alone women?!
The heroine's father died of illness, and her mother couldn't find a good job opportunity in those days.
A woman, even if she does the dirtiest and most tiring work, cannot support herself and her children.
In order to survive, she had to remarry.
Fortunately, the heroine's stepfather was very good to her and supported her education no matter how poor the family was.
But accidents happen, and my stepfather also died.
Her mother couldn't live any longer, so she had to remarry.
But before she remarried, she went to a fortune teller, and the fortune teller told her mother directly that she was unlucky in marriage.
These words made the woman stop wanting to remarry.
Anyone who has read "Camel Xiangzi" probably knows that in that era, women who were desperate and wanted to make money and survive had to take the wrong path.
That damn world doesn't give them many choices.
Although it was the Republic of China at that time, the restrictions on women were still very severe. So Yue Rong could not accept that her mother was like this. When she found herself facing her mother's guests, she collapsed and ran away.
At first, there was a kind headmistress who took her in. She helped the school with some chores to offset her living expenses.
But as her semester was coming to an end, she was neither a student nor a handyman in the school, so it was impossible for them to take her in.
She tried to find a job, but there was no chance of getting one.
In the end, I had no choice but to go back to school, hoping that the school could help me.
The principal's nephew thought she was pretty, so he 'kindly' took her in and coaxed her with sweet words. Yue Rong thought she had someone to rely on, but unexpectedly, the man's wife came to her door.
At first, the heroine was strong-willed and left overnight.
Even after she found a job as a waitress, she chose to maintain her dignity when faced with lecherous customers.
But dignity cannot be eaten.
When people can no longer survive, they have no dignity or backbone.
She wanted to go find her mother, so she went to see her secretly. However, the man her mother remarried was not a good person and he often beat and scolded her. She didn't want to implicate her mother.
In despair, she thought about committing suicide.
But before she committed suicide, she met the wife of the man who deceived her.
The woman said that without Yuerong, the bastard didn't stay still for a few days and started to look for other women again. Now he doesn't even come home, and she has to support the family by herself.
As she spoke, she couldn't help but envy Yuerong. At least, Yuerong had no worries and she was free!
free? !
At that time, Yuerong, who was desperate and wanted to commit suicide, laughed out loud. Her monologue in the movie was: "I don't want to die! We have been deceived for too long. Respectability and morality are what the rich say to others. For us, hunger is the greatest truth!"
From then on, Yuerong followed her mother's example and embarked on a path of no return. . .
What impressed Wu Yuezhao the most was that in the reviews of the movie, some people said that the heroine had no self-respect and no backbone, and that she was not worthy of all the years of studying she had done.
The moment I saw this comment, it was a difficult period in the new era. Countless factories were closing down, and many people were forced to jump off buildings, cut their wrists, or take drugs because of mortgage and car loans.
Students, graduate students, and doctoral students from 985 universities are all doing jobs that they once thought they would never be able to do.
Are those people unworthy of the books they studied? !
Why don't those people find decent jobs?!
Is it because you don’t want to?!
A group of people who are well fed, well clothed, and living in a stable world built by their predecessors with blood and sweat, but they smugly laugh at those miserable people for having no integrity, and laugh at those who can't make much money even if they sell meat. How could they live like that? !
Yes! How did they live like that? !
They also want to know! They also want to have backbone! They also want to be upright!
But that world doesn’t give them any chance!
Ah!
Don’t even mention the fucked-up era of the Republic of China. Those who had enough food and clothing had no idea that even after the reform and opening up, in some remote areas, some women who couldn’t make ends meet had to rely on selling themselves to support their husbands and children!
Only when people survive can they have three outlooks. Only when they are well fed and warmly clothed can they have the qualifications to demand dignity.
But when it comes to survival, few people can truly uphold their integrity.
To put it bluntly, if there are really so many people with integrity, why are there so many people who are used as competition material by those thousand-man slayers? !
According to what the angry young people on the Internet said, they should rise up in resistance!
Unfortunately, the Ten Days of Yangzhou and the Three Massacres of Jiading had already slaughtered all the Han people.
A dynasty where people were honored to be called slaves.
An emperor closed the country to the outside world, learned geometry, mathematics, and various foreign languages, and then took advantage of the knowledge blind spots of his ministers to deliberately ask them questions that they didn't know at all in the court, and watched them unable to answer, and felt complacent about the dynasty.
Such a dynasty is destined to perish.
Because it has been seeking its own death!
The only sad thing is that not only did it die itself, it also dragged its people, who had been shrunken by discipline, towards death!
Therefore, many people in later generations believed that only by seeing the flowers blooming again in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood could the people at that time awaken the tenacity in their bones and remember their past indomitable spirit!
However, it is not easy to create a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Wu Yuezhao stood on the street, looking at the women with haggard faces who were still trying to greet customers and the vans hurrying along the street. In the dead twilight, it seemed like a ghost town. . .
