Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly
Chapter 434: The Educated Youth Cousin in the Historical Literature (4)
Many years later, with the funding from the well-known entrepreneur Chen Caiqing, hundreds of "Huaiwen Primary Schools" have sprung up across China, lighting the beacon of knowledge for countless poor children.
But the young man who loved to wear a white shirt and left the hope of life to the children just before the mudslide hit had already turned into a handful of yellow earth and disappeared in the long river of time.
After receiving all the plots, Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh and said in her heart: As expected, the protagonist's happiness is all the same, while the supporting characters' deaths are bizarre.
Lin Xi's identity this time is the daughter of Song Guanwen's stepmother's cousin.
Song Guanwen's biological mother came from a wealthy family, and his father, Mr. Zheng, had served as a guard for a founding father when he was young. He was loved by this founding father and later, with his support, he became the chief of staff of a military region.
Therefore, the first twenty years of Song Guangwen's mother's life could almost be described as smooth sailing. However, no matter how prominent a family is or how wealthy a family is, when faced with the rolling torrent of history, they are nothing more than an insignificant speck of dust.
The situation was turbulent, and the east wind prevailed over the west wind. The founding father was defeated in the political struggle and fell into silence. Mr. Zheng, whom he had promoted, was naturally not much better off. Not only was he dismissed from his post, but he was actually confined at home under the pretext of recuperation.
Tracing back several generations, the family history of his ancestors being landlords was dug up by some interested people and widely publicized.
The revered general who fought for his country and risked his life has now become an object of scorn by everyone. Not only does he have to endure the contempt of people around him, but he also has to be constantly alert to the little guards who may rush into the house at any time. The entire Zheng family has become like a frightened bird in the day-to-day panic.
In order to protect their family as much as possible and reduce the suspicion of "bad background" on themselves, Mr. Zheng and his wife thought about marrying off their youngest daughter as soon as possible before the knife over their heads fell.
Although the situation is serious now and many people in power would rather catch the wrong person than let him go, the traditional concept of "don't let a daughter who marries out suffer any harm" is still deeply rooted. If the daughter can be handed over to a reliable person, then even if the Zheng family is destroyed, a trace of bloodline can still be left.
Therefore, Mr. Zheng and his wife quickly chose Song's father who worked in a steel mill. Compared with the Zheng family's current precarious reputation, Song's father, who could be traced back ten generations as poor farmers and now worked as a formal employee in a state-owned enterprise, could be said to be of "good family background".
If I marry my daughter to him, then even if the Zheng family falls, those people will be crazy and it will be difficult for them to find trouble with a person who has the word "clean" written all over him, right? Therefore, Mr. Zheng quickly asked someone to reveal his intention to Song's father.
When Song's father received the news, he was ecstatic. The daughter of Staff Officer Zheng, a famous beauty in the area, someone he had never dared to dream of before, now wanted to marry him. He agreed without even thinking twice.
As for the Zheng family's background, he didn't care about it at all. His family had been poor farmers for generations, and he was alone. A barefoot man was not afraid of those who wore shoes. Compared to all those gossips, a beautiful wife that he could see and touch was of course more important.
So the two got married quickly and got their marriage certificate.
But two people who grew up in completely different environments, belonged to completely different classes, and had no emotional foundation, were now hastily tied together due to the situation and had to live with each other day and night. Naturally, it would not be smooth sailing.
