Influenced by foreign trends, some church schools in the Republic of China were the first to select school beauties. Some schools are called "school beauties", and some schools are called "queens". For example, Zhou Hexuan's fiancée Zhang Leyi was once a member of a Chinese and Western girls' school and
Queen of Jinling University.
In Peiping, Yanjing University and Tsinghua University are the most popular, because both universities are missionary schools, and every year there are good people who choose the "Campus Belle" and "Queen".
Although Peking University was not infected with this trend, when Ma Jue entered Peking University, she was immediately recognized as the "Queen" by the students and became famous throughout the capital, eclipsing the campus beauties of Yan University and Tsinghua University. Even a few years later, the International Federation investigation team
When he visited China, the academic circle in Peking specially invited Ma Jue to receive him and accompany him.
Someone once said that Ma Yuzao's greatest contribution in his life was giving birth to a daughter who was the school belle of Peking University.
It is said that Ma Jue received dozens of love letters every day. Because there were so many students who admired her, the boys privately called Ma Yuzao "the father-in-law."
Well, father-in-law from Peking University.
The famous scholar Professor Zhu Wenliang, because he entered school too late, lamented every time he held a class reunion: "It's too late for the rest of my life, and I won't be able to see the prosperity of the three generations."
When Ma Jue was studying at Peking University, a student named Xiao committed suicide by jumping off a building because his pursuit was unsuccessful. Fortunately, he was rescued. This incident caused a big fuss, and due to other messy reasons, Ma Jue couldn't bear the disturbance and dropped out of school.
Married to an ordinary civil servant from Tianjin.
Zhou Hexuan had admired the name "Queen Ma" for a long time. Now he saw it with his own eyes. He found that the skin on Ma Yu's face was so good that it was white and rosy and could be broken by blows. The face shape was slightly rounded and oval, with big eyes, without any makeup.
, she is the kind of gentle and cute cute girl.
"Hello, classmate Ma." Zhou Hexuan nodded and smiled.
Ma Yuzao walked out of the back room, shook hands with Zhou Hexuan and said, "Principal Zhou, it's all thanks to you this time."
"I didn't show up anywhere, it was the students who were busy trying to contact each other," Zhou Hexuan said.
Ma Yuzao sighed and said: "Although Principal Zhou did not come forward, your name is the most important. No one can do this."
It really has to be Zhou Hexuan to call for schools to resume classes, and for teachers to resume classes without being paid.
Chinese people are famous for their emphasis on learning. After all, China is the former president of Peking University. As long as he is willing to stand up, he can naturally gather people's hearts. Otherwise, everyone will be scattered and no one will obey anyone.
Ma Yuzao is an old man at Peking University. He has been the dean of the Chinese Department for more than ten years. He has not left the school during several low periods. He eagerly hopes that Peking University can resume classes as soon as possible.
"Second brother, you resume classes in tandem, why didn't you tell me?" Ma Heng asked.
Ma Yuzao smiled and said: "You are very busy at the Forbidden City and I don't want to disturb you."
Ma Heng said: "I can't be spared from this kind of thing."
Not long after, Ma Yuzao's wife Chen Dexin came out with food and asked the Sun brothers who were following Zhou Hexuan to sit down and eat.
Chen Dexin belongs to the progressive new women. In the late Qing Dynasty, she was sent by the government to study in Japan. It was not easy and she had to be knowledgeable, not to mention she was a woman.
Ma Heng's sister Ma Yan also sat at the table. The little Loli seemed a little shy and timidly peeked at Zhou Hexuan without speaking.
Ma Yuzao helped Zhou Hexuan fill a glass of white wine and said, "Principal Zhou, everything has been arranged for tomorrow."
"Mr. Youlaoyouyu." Zhou Hexuan raised his glass.
Ma Heng asked curiously: "What are the arrangements?"
Zhou Hexuan and Ma Yuzao looked at each other and smiled, and Ma Yuzao said: "Let's put on a show for the reporters. Shuping, please dress a little more shabby tomorrow and wear that gown with several patches on it."
"Aren't you lying?" Ma Hengji was speechless, "Anyone who knows me well doesn't know that my father-in-law's family is rich? No matter how I pretend to be poor, I can't even pretend to be poor!"
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said: "No one exposed you."
Ma Heng waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, I will wear whatever I want tomorrow and I won't act with you."
"It's up to you," Ma Yuzao said. "Anyway, I drag my wife and daughter with me, so I'm a pauper."
Ma Jue blinked his big eyes and said with a smile: "Okay, dad, you actually discussed deceiving people."
Zhou Hexuan said: "This is not called deception, this is called strategy."
"It's just a lie anyway," Ma Jue said.
Zhou Hexuan asked: "You are also studying at Peking University, right? Do you hope that Peking University will resume classes as soon as possible?"
Ma Jue said: "I am studying preparatory courses and we have not suspended classes. But of course I hope that the undergraduate department will resume classes soon."
At this time, Peking University's preparatory course was equivalent to the high school affiliated with Peking University, and admission was based on ability. However, after completing the three-year preparatory course, you could advance to undergraduate courses without taking the exam.
Zhou Hexuan asked Ma Yuzao in surprise: "The preparatory courses have not been suspended?"
Ma Yuzao smiled and said: "The scale of the preparatory department is small, and it has not been merged into the school, so everyone unanimously discussed and decided to use the school's only little funds to maintain the teaching of the preparatory department."
"Peking University actually still has money, you can really save it." Zhou Hexuan said with a smile.
"That's money from Peking University's bank. All previous students have saved it and dare not use it randomly. Even if the teachers can't afford the salary, the bank must keep a part of the principal to prevent students from having no money to use when withdrawing money," Ma Yuzao said with envy.
"Yanda and Tsinghua are still rich, and the Gengzi scholarship funds are more than enough. I heard that after Luo Jialun became president, Tsinghua planned to build two teaching buildings at the same time, and also purchased a lot of experimental equipment."
After finishing the meal slowly, Ma Yuzao kept pouring wine, and finally Zhou Hexuan was a little dizzy from drinking.
Ma Jue came out holding a copy of "The Goddess", opened one of the pages and asked for advice: "Mr. Zhou, I don't understand something here. What do you want to express in the dialogue between the heroine and the city god after she met the city god?"
Zhou Hexuan did not explain, but said: "It is best not for children to read such realistic books."
"I'm not a child," Ma Jue said. "Mr. Lu Xun also wrote about realistic themes. I read all his books. I also often write to him and ask him for advice on literary issues."
Ma Jue had a very good relationship with Lu Xun. Until Ma Jue got married, Lu Xun would mail books to Ma Jue every once in a while.
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said: "Mr. Lu Xun's works are different from mine."
"I think they are all similar. "The Goddess" is very similar to "Diary of a Madman"," Ma Jue thought for a moment and smiled, "But your writing style is very different. Mr. Lu Xun likes to use witticisms to curse people, and your book loves
Use a metaphor, and you have to think hard to see that it's sarcasm."
"That's because you haven't watched "The Dog Officer"." Zhou Hexuan said.
Ma Jue said: "I'll come and take a look another day. By the way, just wait..."
After Ma Jue finished speaking, he ran back to his boudoir, brought a manuscript and said, "Mr. Zhou, this is my attempt to write and correct it."
Zhou Hexuan was drunk and his head was dizzy as he read it.
The font of the novel manuscript is beautiful, a hundred times better than Zhou Hexuan's ghost paintings. The heroine is a student who fell in love with an ordinary-looking but talented young man. Their families are not symmetrical, so the woman's parents strongly opposed it. The hero chose to join the revolution, and as a result
Died on the battlefield of the Northern Expedition...
"What's the plot behind it?" Zhou Hexuan asked.
"I haven't completely thought about it yet, but I want to create an independent woman in the new era," Ma Jue asked enthusiastically, "Mr. Zhou, can you help me evaluate it."
Zhou Hexuan thought for a while and said: "The writing is beautiful, and I can see that you have strong literary skills. But playing with words is a bit too much. The novel does not need too many gorgeous words. As for the content and plot, it is relatively old-fashioned, probably influenced by the Mandarin Duck and Butterfly School and Questions
The dual influence of novels. These stories are all made up by you, and some details are out of touch with reality, making them unconvincing and uninspiring."
"That's it." Ma Jue was quite frustrated.
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said: "At your age, it is better to write poetry and prose. Even if you write recreational novels, problem novels are not suitable for you because you do not have enough life and social experience."
"I've also written some poems, and I'll show them to you." Ma Jue said and ran back to the boudoir to get the poems.
There are about a dozen of these poems, all of which are new poems. Most of their contents are about girls' sadness in spring and autumn, as well as their beautiful fantasies about love.
It is still very beautiful to read, and Ma Jue has a very profound literary foundation. Unfortunately, she has had no worries about food and clothing since she was a child, and has never experienced setbacks, so what she writes seems flashy and unrealistic.
The most outstanding female writers in the literary world of the Republic of China are undoubtedly Lu Yin, Xiao Hong and Ding Ling. The first two had rough life experiences, while the latter was a revolutionary fighter. Their writing is inherently shocking, far beyond the comparison of boudoir ladies like Ma Jue.
of.
"The writing is very good." Zhou Hexuan could only comment like this, not wanting to dampen the girl's enthusiasm too much.
"Really?"
Ma Jue said happily: "Can I write to you in the future? I'll ask you some literary questions."
