Chapter 161 The third brother abandons his sister
Meng Shaoyuan knew very well that although the whole country was shocked by the Double Twelve Incident, in fact there would not be any big trouble in Nanjing.
While everyone is worried now, I should go to Shanghai quickly.
One is to ask in person about the progress of the arms that he wants Mrs. Rose to buy for him.
Although Song Ziwen sent him a batch, as for weapons and bullets, the more the better.
Another one is to find Huo Peng's little wife.
The evidence of Huo Peng's crime must be confirmed to death so that he cannot stand up.
Also, it would be best to find some clues about the relationship between him and Qi Honghai.
One group was temporarily handed over to Tian Qi and the others.
Meng Shaoyuan bought a train ticket and rushed to Shanghai alone.
Shanghai and Nanjing are very close to each other, and the transportation is extremely convenient. It is most convenient to travel between them.
Many of the senior officials of the National Government bought houses in Shanghai and raised young wives. When they got some rest, they went straight to Shanghai without stopping.
This also gave birth to a business:
Being taken care of.
Some women have quick minds and can think quickly. They are kept by locals in Shanghai and people from Nanjing.
I usually hang out with locals in Shanghai, but on Saturday night and until the next day, I live with people from Nanjing.
There is also such a joke.
A deputy director of a certain bureau in Nanjing kept a certain Yang in Shanghai. Every time after work on Saturday, he would take the fastest train to Shanghai and not return to Nanjing until Sunday night.
More than a year passed like this.
One time, he happened to go to Shanghai for business and had to stay in Shanghai for three days. He felt unhappy at the thought of being able to spend three days with Yang day and night.
After talking about business that day, a director of the other party treated him to a banquet and even called his little wife.
The deputy director from Nanjing was happily received at the banquet and was dumbfounded.
Isn’t the wife of this director in Shanghai none other than Yang?
Knowing each other's truth, the two directors were embarrassed and angry.
When Yang saw what had happened, he was not panicked.
She told the two directors that none of them could make her their first wife anyway, so she would accompany the Shanghai director from Monday to Friday. On Saturdays during the day, she would prepare meals carefully and wait for the Nanjing director to arrive in the evening until Sunday.
No one can see anyone. Doesn’t this really make everyone happy?
When the two bureau chiefs heard this, they realized that what they said made sense, so they talked over wine and called themselves brothers.
From now on, I will live like this, truly making sure everything is not messy.
It was not until later that the Nanjing director was caught committing the crime that this ridiculous joke ended.
Then Yang is very frustrated, which means that his monthly income has been greatly reduced.
Therefore, it is inevitable to receive some guests quietly on Saturdays and Sundays to make up for the losses.
Nine out of ten of these little wives were prostitutes and returned to their old profession, which didn't seem to matter to them.
Whenever Meng Shaoyuan heard these ridiculous things, he couldn't help but feel ridiculous.
After getting off the train, I called a rickshaw and went straight to the public concession.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the public concession, what I saw in front of me was a parade.
This parade is not anti-Japanese or anything like that. Most of the people in the parade are women, with a few men mixed in. There are slogans one after another, and the slogans shouted are about equality between men and women, women's supremacy, etc.
.
Not to mention, it must be a feminist movement that has not weakened at all since the early years of the Republic of China.
It looked like there were hundreds of people in the parade.
Those patrolmen and spies all rolled up their sleeves and hid aside, not asking any questions.
These feminist activists' parades are not lethal and will not undermine the stability of the public settlement, so as long as they do not cause trouble and are not like the famous prostitute Jin Yayu from Hankou who paraded naked, no one will bother them.
Na Jin Yayu became famous as soon as she was naked, and from then on she attracted countless curious men to her doorstep, and people lined up to do business. She was considered one of the most extraordinary women during the Republic of China.
There were also some agents from the Lixing Society at the scene.
They were also not here to control the parade, but to see if there were any suspicious elements.
There is an agreement between these special agents and the public concession, and arrests will be made through patrol houses in the concession in exchange for freedom of movement in the concession.
Of course, there are inevitably some secret arrests that bypass the arresting houses. As long as there is not much movement, the concession generally turns a blind eye.
This is called tacit understanding.
"Fourth!"
"Third brother!"
Suddenly, a person passed him face to face. The two people looked at each other and blurted out surprise at the same time.
This is not Hangzhou Police Academy, a dormitory, Chen Rongyang, a member of the "Shuanglou Club"!
On the day Shuanglou Club was established, according to age, Hou Danliang was the eldest, He Guangtao was the second, Chen Rongyang was the third, and Meng Shaoyuan was the youngest and was the fourth.
The classmates were extremely happy to meet each other. Chen Rongyang said repeatedly: "Shaoyuan, why didn't you notify me when you came to Shanghai? I can arrange a car to pick you up."
Arrange a car?
As soon as he said this sentence, Meng Shaoyuan immediately understood: "Have you been promoted?"
Chen Rongyang laughed "hehe" a few times: "I am now the captain."
Squadron leader?
so fast?
It was Chen Rongyang's good luck that he returned to Shanghai after graduation and got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The Shanghai Lixing Society was divided into the Concession Faction and the Hongkou Faction.
The Hongkou Faction was mainly used to monitor Japan's Hongkou Military Base. The task was heavy and dangerous, but its status was not as good as the Concession Faction, which also made them very dissatisfied.
The superiors discovered this situation, and in order to reconcile the contradiction, they decided to set up two new special squadrons, belonging to two factions, to exchange tasks and shoulder each other's responsibilities.
Chen Rongyang, who returned from his studies, was appointed as the captain of the Hongkou Special Squadron and was sent to the public concession to assist in the execution of tasks.
In order to show their sincerity in resolving the conflict, the concession faction also specially provided a car for his squadron.
Chen Rongyang is also considered to be outstanding.
It is said that the temperament of agents who come out of the training class will be different, and this is absolutely true.
In the past, Chen Rongyang had a somewhat inferior self-esteem and didn't like to talk.
But what about now?
No matter how you look at it, you are in high spirits.
"Congratulations." Meng Shaoyuan repeatedly handed over his hands: "You have to treat me."
"As a treat, when you Meng Shaoyuan comes to Shanghai, I, as the host, must be the host. In the evening, I will serve the wine at Haichuan Tower." Chen Rongyang smiled and said: "Shaoyuan, I am nothing like a squadron leader. I heard that you have been promoted to
You are the team leader. Two days ago, the boss came to Shanghai, and we were talking about you and thinking about when we would go to Nanjing to enjoy the autumn breeze."
Although Meng Shaoyuan is the youngest in Shuanglou Club, he has the quickest reaction and the most ideas. The fourth brother is the one who is most convinced by the third brother.
The two brothers talked there for a while, and Meng Shaoyuan pointed to the parade that had formed a circle and listened to an impassioned speech by a young woman:
"What do you mean?"
"Don't mention it." Chen Rongyang couldn't laugh or cry: "There is a family with four siblings. The mother died early. In order to take care of the three younger brothers, the elder sister remained unmarried in her thirties. As a result, after the three younger brothers got married, they felt that the elder sister was in the way, so she
Kick her out of the house.
One day my sister went back and found that the door was locked and her luggage was thrown at the door. No matter how hard she knocked, the door wouldn't open. She sat outside and cried.
Later, a reporter found out about this incident, so he wrote an article in the newspaper. What was it called? By the way, 'The Case of the Third Brother Abandoning His Sister'. As soon as the newspaper exaggerated it, it immediately caused an uproar in the Shanghai feminist movement.
No, let’s start the parade.”
"ah?"
Meng Shaoyuan was stunned when he heard this.
Are you going to march just for this?
"Shao Yuan, you don't know." Chen Rongyang lowered his voice and looked around: "There are constant frictions between China and Japan, and any parade must be related to this. Moreover, something happened in Xi'an again. In recent days,
The demonstrations on the same day were all anti-Zhang, calling for the removal of the committee members.
Those who are involved in the feminist movement have been silent for some time. The leading few are a little lonely. It happens that such a thing happens, and those few people will definitely not let it go. So they say that national affairs are important, women's freedom
Equality is also related to the fate of the country. As soon as we were encouraged, hundreds of people came out to march in protest."
Meng Shaoyuan was really dumbfounded: "If we have the time and money, let's pool together the money and hire a barrister for that sister, and then just file a lawsuit, right?"
"How can we reflect the importance of Shanghai's feminist movement?" Chen Rongyang's voice became even lower: "We have to make the momentum bigger. A few days ago, because of the incident in Xi'an, all walks of life in Shanghai held an emergency meeting to discuss everyone's unification with the outside world.
Opinion, the people who organized the meeting also forgot to invite the leaders of the feminist movement.
I heard that Pan Daijiao, the leader of the feminist movement, led a few people to cause a scene at the venue, and the situation almost got out of control. Alas..."
Meng Shaoyuan was speechless.
Equality between men and women and the liberation of women are a matter of course.
But now it's a bit overkill.
This is especially true in Shanghai.
Shanghai is a city in China that has integrated with the world very early and has developed rapidly in all aspects.
The word "feminism" also began to flourish in Shanghai, Wuhan, Guangzhou and other places.
It was only later that it developed and gradually began to change.
As the famous Professor Zhang Jingsheng and Zhang Da encouraged, one should sleep naked, swim... and even travel naked.
This is a bit of a hooliganism.
There are even some scholars and famous leaders of the feminist movement who encourage that one woman and many men are equal to men and women. This is not progress, but social regression.
"How is that sister doing now?" Meng Shaoyuan asked casually.
"Don't mention it." When he said this, Chen Rongyang got a little angry: "Pan Daijiao and the others didn't care about her, and they didn't even allow others to care about her. They just let her sister sleep at the door of her brother's house, humiliating the whole family. What's more?
If anyone is in charge, it is destroying women's rights and disrespecting women. I just can't figure it out, how can anyone in this world respect women so much?"
"Isn't this nonsense?" Meng Shaoyuan shook his head and said: "After the parade, they went home to eat and sleep, leaving a poor woman to sleep in the open? Third brother, you too, don't you lend a hand to help?"
"Shall I help? I will offend these women." Chen Rongyang smiled bitterly: "Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about it."
Chapter completed!
