1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

"he is..."

"Hahahaha... hello brother."

Fujiwara Kanezane's smile was as greasy as that of a middle-aged man in his forties:

"My name is Ma Long, and people in the underworld call me 'Uncle Long.' What's your name, brother? What's your career?"

In history, Yang Guanbao is a rare example of "licking the dog and getting everything in the end".

There's nothing I can do, he's a rich guy.

hateful.

I have to play around a bit to quench my jealousy. (Previous life)

33

The Ma sisters and Lu Xun sighed silently. Here we go again.

Scored a brace/scored three times today. Is this guy so free?

Yang Guanbao had no idea that the person in front of him was a lunatic who was bored and looking for someone to play with. He kept muttering to himself.

Uncle Long? Jianghu?

Where does this person come from?

Seeing his rival initiate a conversation, he subconsciously replied in order to maintain his composure in front of his beloved:

"Dragon sh..."

Fuck!

I almost shouted "Uncle Long"!

Is this guy trying to take advantage of me on purpose?

Looking at Ma Long's youthful face, Yang Guanbao gritted his teeth, trying not to sound too hostile, but his words still carried a hint of both boasting and warning, similar to the way a male animal courts a mate:

"Hello, Mr. Ma Long! My name is Yang Guanbao, and I'm currently serving as the Assistant Director of Tianjin Customs..."

At the end, he added a sentence:

"By the way, my ancestor was once the Left Vice Minister of the Qing Dynasty!"

"..."

Ma Jue covered his face. Brother Yang had lost his composure.

Showing off your family background in front of a top Japanese noble? You'll definitely be teased badly later. Fujiwara Kanezane continued to smile:

"Oh, so you're from a prominent family. I've heard a lot about you... But, Brother Yang, I have a question."

"please say."

"Since Brother Yang has such a good family background, why is he only an assistant in the customs office?"

"Uh..." Yang Guanbao was speechless.

The Qing Dynasty has been gone for many years. Apart from the considerable wealth accumulated by their ancestors, where are the connections left?

The Kuomintang overthrew the Qing Dynasty, so how could they possibly treat the people of the Qing Dynasty as treasures?

"Haha, I'm still young, so I need to lay a solid foundation so that I can get promoted in the future."

"Oh, that's right. You have to eat your food one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. If you take too big a step, you'll easily fall down."

"puff!"

Others didn't understand the joke, but Lu Xun did and almost laughed out loud.

Yang Guanbao didn't care about this. He just wanted to quickly skip over his own topic: "Then I wonder where Mr. Ma is doing so well?"

"As for me, I'm just an ordinary street urchin with no real job."

"Street slicker?"

Yang Guanbao looked at Lu Xun and Ma Jue doubtfully, then shook his head.

"Mr. Ma, don't tease me. You are definitely not an ordinary person." "Oh? What do you mean?"

"If you were just an ordinary person, how could you possibly be walking with Mr. Zhou? How could Xiaojue possibly be talking to you? And even with the look of...asking for advice?"

Hey, this kid is not stupid.

Fujiwara Kanezane pretended to be stupid and said:

"You're wrong. Mr. Zhou may be a great writer, but he's always been willing to stand with the people at the bottom of society. Miss Ma is also a humble and studious woman, isn't she?"

"Uh...of course..."

"So, I'm just an ordinary street kid, but when three people walk together, there must be a teacher. I have a little ability and talent, and we have a good temper, so they treat me like a friend... You, you still need to learn from me."

"I..."

After hearing these convincing words, Yang Guanbao was confused. Could it be that this man was really just a street urchin?

Xiaojue actually fell in love with a street urchin? No, I have to tell Uncle Ma when I get back.

Even if Xiaojue doesn't want to marry me, she must marry into a respectable family.

Ma Jue couldn't bear to see this man who had given so much to her and had never been in love or married at the age of 28 being played like this to the point where his mother couldn't even recognize him. She whispered:

"Mr. Ma, for my sake, please stop teasing him, okay?" "Xiao Jue, it's not Uncle Long who is teasing him."

Fujiwara no Kanezane pointed at Yang Guanbao and said:

"Look at this guy. He's been chasing you for over six years, spending tons of money on you. He seems to be really attentive, but he doesn't even know your hobbies or ideals. How can this work?"

噫?

When did I tell him about Brother Yang pursuing me? Was it Mr. Lu Xun who told him?

That's not right. I haven't told my husband about it either.

Ma Jue was still thinking, but Yang Guanbao was not convinced:

"Why don't I understand? Xiaojue loves reading..."

"No, no, no, I'm not talking about these hobbies, but her true inner hobbies. Let me ask you, did you know that Xiaojue wanted to study agriculture?"

"Agricultural science?"

"Yes, studying agriculture, learning agronomy, researching things in this area in the future, and contributing to the people's food. Did you know that this was her true ideal?"

"this..."

Yang Guanbao looked at Ma Jue, who hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded:

"Yes, originally, I wanted to study agriculture, but it was only because of my father's request that I chose to study political science."

I had no idea!

"Look, you don't even know this. You just blindly pursue her and satisfy your own selfish desires without trying to understand her heart deeply. What kind of love is this!"

Fujiwara no Kanezane taught him a lesson with deep sorrow:

"If she really went to study agriculture, and made her skin rough and old, would you still love her? You wouldn't! Do you really like her? You're just lusting after her body! You're a lowly person!"

Yang Guanbao was so shocked that he was speechless.

He really could not imagine, and had never imagined, Ma Jue wearing coarse clothes, a straw hat, and staying in the fields as a farmer.

If that's the case...

Thinking of the appearance of the peasant woman he had seen before, and then putting it on Ma Jue, Yang Guanbao couldn't help but shudder.

Could it be that I really only like Xiaojue out of sexual desire? I'm actually so despicable?

Lu Xun couldn't help but hold his forehead.

It's over, another fooled guy was born. But Ma Jue replied calmly:

"Mr. Ma, if such an opportunity really comes, I won't think my appearance is a burden to me. Please don't underestimate me."

"Really? I don't believe it." Fujiwara Kanezane tilted his head:

"You have such a pretty face. Can you withstand the erosion of the scorching sun, rain, and cold winter? Oh, and I remember you seemed to be quite afraid of insects. How can someone who is afraid of insects work in the fields? You don't think studying agriculture is just doing experiments in the laboratory, do you?"

"Yes. My appearance caused me to suffer enough harassment from men during college. Also, I am afraid of insects. But even so, when Mr. Zhou asked me what I wanted to study, I still answered agricultural science."

"Oh...you mean, if time could go back, if you were the present you who went back to the past, you would definitely go against your father's wishes and study agriculture?"

"Yes."

"If there really is such an opportunity, would you be willing to come to Northeast China and do something to serve the people?"

"Hey?"

Ma Jue opened her mouth slightly, realizing what Fujiwara Kanezane seemed to be trying to say. Something in her mind moved, and her expression changed slightly:

"You...you mean..."

"What I mean is, are you willing to give up everything you've learned so far and study agriculture all over again?"

"this..."

"Don't want to? Look, let me tell you, in the end..."

"No, it's not that I don't want to, but... I'm afraid my father would be quite against it."

"What a complete excuse! If you want to be an independent woman, why are you afraid of your father's disapproval?"

"I.."

"Xiaojue, Uncle Long, let me ask you again. You and your father both want to do something to improve the status of Chinese women. What methods do you think can truly improve their status?"

"Uh... educate them, tell them that women need to be self-reliant, tell them that they can't spend their lives doing housework, and also from the perspective of political status and legal provisions..."

"Stupid, arrogant, condescending, out of touch..."

Fujiwara no Kanezane interrupted without hesitation and lectured:

"Let me tell you, if we want to truly improve the status of women, there's only one way: let women personally participate in work and labor, rather than staying at home as rich wives relying on their husbands for support!"

"Labor...labor?"

"That's right! Only labor! Only labor! Only working women have real status and are respected in the family and society. Everything else is a delusion! Without labor as a foundation, women's status will never improve!"

Unless the fist tower is combined into one, and beat up the fat cat and the crowd. (dog head)

"Tell me, Xiaojue! Are you willing to spend every day taking care of your husband and children after marriage? Do you want your childhood dreams to be buried in the trivialities of family life? Look in my eyes! Tell me your answer!"

Provoked by Fujiwara Kanezane, Ma Jue blurted out:

“I don’t want to!!!”

Lu Xun held his forehead again.

Finished, this is another...

Wait, this can’t be considered as being fooled.

"Right! So, would you like to study at our newly established Shenyang University?"

Fujiwara Kanezane smiled and tempted:

"I'll hire the best agricultural experts from around the world, from the United States, Japan, China, and the Soviet Union. You can learn from scratch. With your perseverance and talent, I believe it won't be difficult."

Ma Jue took a deep breath and asked doubtfully, "Why do you think so highly of me?"

Accustomed to the looks of her suitors at Peking University, Ma Jue could see that Fujiwara Kanematsu's eyes were extremely clear when he looked at her. There was only admiration and expectation, without any worldly desires.

So, it is even more difficult to understand.

"Nothing, meeting is destiny. Actually, I have other goals, but I just haven't met them yet."

For example, Grandpa Yuan who was still a baby.

By the way, there seems to be a relative of Jinling University’s Agricultural College who is a future soybean geneticist and agricultural educator. I have to find time to ask someone to bring her over to farm with us.

Such a casual person...

Ma Jue thought for a few seconds, then looked up at Lu Xun, whose face was filled with relief and encouragement. She then made up her mind and replied seriously:

"Okay! I'm willing to go back to college! I want to study agriculture!"
