"Member Shi Zhijian proposes to abolish the Qing Dynasty laws, align with the civilization of the times, and abolish the polygamy system!"
Hong Kong "Ming Pao"——
"Are the laws of the Qing Dynasty still suitable for the development of the times? Does polygamy discriminate against women? Congressman Shi Zhijian's bold proposal is groundbreaking!"
Early in the morning, all newspapers and periodicals in Hong Kong published the news that Shi Zhijian asked the Hong Kong government to abolish the Qing laws! Especially regarding the polygamy system, he requested to embrace civilization and abolish it as soon as possible!
As soon as this news came out, it was like a thunderclap, causing waves in Hong Kong to surge!
Hong Kong Wan Chai Tea Restaurant!
Bang!
A big man with a crooked mouth kicked the chair to the ground!
"What do you mean? He, Shi Zhijian, wants to abolish the laws of the Qing Dynasty? Who does he think he is? He can have three wives, but he wants us to be monogamous? I'm going to beat him up!"
"Yes, this is so unfair! If a man is rich, he can have three wives and four concubines, as long as you can afford to support them!"
"Hahaha, you crooked third son, can you support two wives with three hundred yuan a month? I'm afraid you can't even support one!"
"Hahaha!"
Hong Kong Western Restaurant.
"It's interesting that this Shi Zhijian dared to violate the Qing laws that everyone feared like a tiger, and also advocated monogamy!" said a gentleman while drinking coffee.
"This rotten thing should have been abolished long ago! It seems that Congressman Shi is really a man of conscience!" said a lady.
"That's right! A talent like him is called an honest official!"
Fok Tai-heng's mansion in Hong Kong.
In the early morning, Huo Daheng got up from bed.
His wife had already dressed, bent down to help him put on his socks and shoes, and fetched water to help him wash up.
Huo Daheng looked at his wife who was getting older and couldn't bear to say: "Just leave these things to the servants, you don't have to do it yourself."
"I am your wife, these are the things I should do."
Huo Daheng smiled and said nothing.
After washing up, I went downstairs to the restaurant and saw Mr. Huo holding a newspaper and shouting excitedly.
Huo Daheng couldn't help but frown: "Ating, what are you doing so crazy so early in the morning?"
"Abba, look! Ah Jian is so sharp!" Young Master Huo hurriedly grabbed the newspaper and ran to his father and handed it to him to read.
Huo Daheng took the newspaper and saw the big news at a glance——
He was stunned for a moment and couldn't believe it!
Repealing Qing laws is taboo!
There used to be many strong men and celebrities who wanted to take action on this, but they all failed and were scolded bloody, but now——
"Abba, do you think A-Jian is very powerful? I'm afraid the whole of Hong Kong is in trouble now! This evil system like polygamy should have been abolished long ago!" After finishing speaking, Mr. Huo realized that something was wrong in the atmosphere. His mother was alone. Jiner blinked at himself.
Only then did Mr. Huo seem to remember something, "I mean... it used to be the past, but now times are progressing and society is developing. What should be abolished should be... ahem!"
Huo Daheng didn't say anything. He strolled to the dining table, sat down, and then told Young Master Huo: "Let everyone come down to eat! A family should act like a family!"
After a pause, he continued: "As soon as Ajian's proposal comes out, I'm afraid many people will want to separate their wives and children!"
Young Master Huo disagreed, "Monogamy is the right way! Even if your wife and children break up, you are asking for it!"
For the first time, Young Master Huo had a conflicting opinion with his father.
Huo Daheng glanced at his son and suddenly said: "Ating, you have grown up!"
…
"What a tragedy! What a misfortune! Miss! Good or bad, good or bad, Shi! You see, he wants to abolish the laws of the Qing Dynasty and require monogamy! He is obviously targeting you!" Master Su combed his hair with a middle parting, his nose bridged. Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, he pretended to be a gentleman and read the newspaper while helping Dai Fengni to express her humiliation.
Dai Fengni leaned lazily on the chair, her black hair draped over her shoulders, looking very messy, but this mess gave her an extremely charming look.
Especially after giving birth to a child, Dai Fengni has a special smell that smells very good!
Master Su saw that bastard Chen Biao always hiding next to the eldest lady and sniffing.
His master Su Cai didn't bother to do this. He always sniffed openly and took a few more breaths!
Dai Fengni held her little baby Dandan in her arms, and Dandan giggled at her.
"Master Su, do you think Dandan is a strange child? When he was born, he was so ugly that I didn't even bother to look at him! But now he is getting more and more beautiful! I can't help but secretly kiss his little face. , and kiss his little feet!”
"Children are all like this! What's more, Master Dandan was born to you, the eldest lady! You are the best among men, and Master Dandan is certainly sharp!" Master Su grinned and suddenly said: "By the way, what did I just say? With?"
"You said that Shi Zhijian, who was trying to abolish the Qing laws, was deliberately trying to harm me!"
"Yes, yes! That's it! As long as monogamy is approved, the eldest lady will not be able to marry into the Shi family again!"
"Are you telling me that I want to marry into the Shi family?" Dai Fengni grabbed her balls and brought her little hand to her mouth and kissed her again and again, tutting her tongue.
"If you don't get married, how will you get into his family's property?" Master Su didn't say this, and he didn't have the guts to say this, but it was Dai Fengnian who came down from upstairs and said loudly.
Dai Fengni raised her balls high indifferently and said to her brother: "Our Dai family is not bad, why should I want the family property of Shi? Besides, he promised me that all the business in Baodao will be mine!" "
Dai Fengnian rolled his eyes, "Is this your ambition?"
"I am a woman! As you have said before, why should a woman be so ambitious?"
"That was before!" Dai Fengnian walked up to Dai Fengni, "I taught you to be more honest and not to provoke Shi Zhijian. Why didn't you listen?"
"But I don't think I'm at a disadvantage! Look, not only did I get so many companies in Treasure Island, but I also got such a cute baby!" Dai Fengni raised Master Dandan to show Dai Fengnian, "Call uncle! Tell uncle not to be angry!"
Dandan just made a noise, widened his black eyes, and kicked his little feet towards Dai Fengnian.
Dai Fengnian hugged Dandan and said to his sister: "You should reflect on it! The girl's family has suffered a loss, but she still has the nerve to say such things!"
Dai Fengni said "Oh" listlessly, then got up from the sofa, "I'm going to do yoga!"
“Why do yoga?”
"It's a shame, daddy! A woman's figure will be out of shape after giving birth. If I don't practice yoga, how can I show my charm in front of that stone?"
"Huh? That's right!" Dai Fengnian said to his younger sister who was going upstairs with her balls in her arms, "If you want to practice to tuck them in a little better, it's best to have the front and back curved! Men all like this style!"
Dai Fengni didn't look back: "As an uncle, help me take care of the child first!"
Dai Fengnian hugged Dandan, and Dandan started crying!
Dai Fengnian was at a loss, "Don't cry! Your mother doesn't take things easy, and I didn't expect you don't take things easy either!"
Dandan cried even harder!
Dai Fengnian asked Master Su: "Why is he crying?"
Master Su: "I probably know that the laws of the Qing Dynasty will be abolished, and his father will not be able to marry his mother again!"
"Marry you as a ghost!"
…
In addition to the chaos on the Dai family's side, Li Xuexuan's side is also extremely tangled!
After all, she and Shi Zhijian can be considered "close comrades-in-arms", and that candle has witnessed how profound their "friendship" is. Now that Shi Zhijian has done something like this, she is very passive and difficult to deal with!
In contrast, Li Jiacheng, Li Zhaoji and others were praising Shi Zhijian's boldness and courage!
Shi Zhijian can be considered a strong man if he dares to get angry with the laws of the Qing Dynasty! After all, many people have thrown their weight behind this proposal before and were scolded bloody!
In short, the rules set by our ancestors are not easy to break! Even if you are the first Chinese member of parliament!
For Bailiqu and other ghost councilors, Shi Zhijian, a guy who is "looking for fame and reputation", is simply "seeking death" by proposing such a proposal!
Gluttony
That’s right!
On the surface, this proposal will be supported by social progressives, especially many British people! It can gain great honor in newspapers and internationally! Become a righteous pioneer to liberate women and fight against female discrimination!
But at the bottom of Hong Kong society and within Xiangjiang’s traditional cultural circles, this is taboo!
"Look! Those Hong Kong people will cling to Shi Zhijian! Abolish the laws of the Qing Dynasty? The coffin boards of their ancestors are about to collapse! Shi Zhijian, do you really think you are God?" Bailiqu said.
Smoking cigars, drinking red wine, with a mocking look on his face!
…
"You're talented, are there many people scolding me in the newspapers?" Shi Zhijian asked the fat lawyer Liang Youcai, sitting sideways on the boss's chair with a cigarette in his mouth.
Liang Youcai read all the newspapers with his glasses on and reported: "Many newspapers support you! Especially those ghost guys say you are the savior and the guide to civilized society! They also say you are the pioneer of liberating women!"
"
"It's rare for these ghosts to know the goods! I'm starting to like them!"
"But most people in Hong Kong scold you!"
"Oh, why are you scolding me?"
"I scold you for being a well-fed man but not knowing he is hungry! He also scolds you for being a waste of life and tearing apart lovers! He also said that the laws of the Qing Dynasty were passed down from our ancestors, and you are digging the graves of our ancestors!"
"What else?"
"this--"
"Say it!"
"It's nothing to scold you for having a baby!"
Shi Zhijian smiled while holding a cigarette in his mouth, "You brought out my ancestors to scare me, and you even used curses to scare me! Do you think I'm scared?!"
Liang Youcai swallowed, "Well, Mr. Shi, do you want me to write a summons to sue those people for defamation and convict them! Put out this fire!"
"That's not how you put out a fire! What you do is adding fuel to the fire!" Shi Zhijian smiled and stood up, "Am I going to make an appointment with those rickshaw representatives today?"
"Yes, the rickshaw business is hard to do now, and many people are unemployed! Shi Sheng, you have to interview them and help them solve their livelihood problems!"
Shi Zhijian nodded and snapped his fingers for Chen Huimin to come over.
"Huimin, do you know how to put out a fire like this?"
Chen Huimin thought for a while, "I understand, Mr. Shi!"
Shi Zhijian raised the corner of his mouth and smiled: "As long as you understand! By the way, I didn't say anything. I am a law-abiding citizen!"
…
A moment——
Chen Huimin came out of the office.
I went somewhere and found a phone and called Daeshengxiong: "Brother Xiong, I need you to do something... That's right! That's it... Mr. Shi said that he is a law-abiding citizen!"
Dai Xiong grinned: "Copy that!"
Bang, hang up the phone.
Daeshengxiong rubbed the dust on his armpits with one hand, while beckoning to his confidants: "Help me find someone, so and so... remember clearly, I didn't say anything, I didn't do anything, I, Daeshengxiong, abide by the law.
citizen!"
The confidant smiled "hehe" and said, "I understand, brother Xiong! We in Hongyihai are all law-abiding citizens!"
…
At three o'clock that afternoon.
Shi Zhijian finished his work and came out of Shinhwa Building.
Chen Huimin stepped forward: "Sorry, Mr. Shi! The vehicle is undergoing maintenance today!"
Shi Zhijian looked at Chen Huimin and said with a smile: "Then take a rickshaw! You can just experience the sufferings of the people of the Rickshaw Association!"
"Okay, Mr. Shi!"
Chen Huimin walked around and waved for a rickshaw.
During this period, the media reporters who had been waiting at the door of the building rushed out when they saw Shi Zhijian appearing!
"Mr. Shi, can I do an interview for you?"
"Mr. Shi, what do you think about the abolition of Qing laws and regulations?!"
The media surrounded Shi Zhijian and greeted him with long guns and short guns!
Shi Zhijian waved his hand and said with a smile: "This bill is still under study. Once it is confirmed, I will give you a perfect answer! Thank you again!"
Shi Zhijian bowed slightly to everyone to express his gratitude.
Then he turned around and got on the rickshaw.
At this time, a big man in the crowd suddenly shouted to Shi Zhijian: "My surname is Shi, I am your mother-in-law! You have abolished the laws of our ancestors and you are not the son of a human being!"
Everyone turned towards the shouting voice, only to see the big man reaching into his arms and rushing toward Shi Zhijian!
Chen Huimin immediately said: "Protect Mr. Shi!"
Before the man could pounce, he flew forward and kicked him out!
Plop!
The big man was kicked away by Chen Huimin!
Rolled down three meters away!
Crackling!
The media was crazy about it!
So excited!
The news is coming!
"This man wants to assassinate Mr. Shi! Call the police quickly!" Chen Huimin stepped on the other man, making the big man unable to move!
All media is crackling again!
The big man struggled desperately on the ground: "I don't have it! I was just scaring him!"
"You still dare to quibble?" Chen Huimin kicked the opponent down and knocked him unconscious with a bang!
"How do you feel about this kind of thing happening to Mr. Shi?" the reporter asked.
Shi Zhijian got off the rickshaw and faced the camera: "For the liberation of women and peace in Hong Kong! Shi is willing to take risks alone and die!"
The tone is sonorous and powerful!
Crackling!
The camera captured this moment!
…
"Congressman Shi was attacked! He still remains true to his original intention!"
"Feudal forces use violence, Congressman Shi upholds justice!"
That afternoon, the whole of Hong Kong was praising Shi Zhijian's heroic deeds. The image of a man who loved peace, prayed for the people, and was willing to take risks for women's rights was vividly displayed on the page!
Hong Kong is experiencing the transition from old to new in this era, especially the "women's liberation" advocated by Western civilization is even more vigorous. Shi Zhijian's behavior has undoubtedly won the favor of female people.
Coupled with the extensive exaggeration by many media, Shi Zhijian's reputation traveled across Hong Kong to England! Even the media there began to praise Shi Zhijian's heroic behavior and anti-feudal ideas!
"This is an outstanding Chinese with avant-garde ideas!"
"He represents the cry of the Chinese in Hong Kong in the new era!"
Even the largest media in the UK, The Times, summed it up in one sentence -
