Siheyuan: I am Liu Guangqi

"Old man, I heard that you and Uncle Bai had a dispute because of Brother Zhanguang's going to college. I have a few words to tell you and Uncle Bai first. I wonder if you would like to listen to it?"

Hearing what Liu Guangqi said, the room was suddenly quieter.

"Tch, what does he know as a brat?"

Bai Jingye snorted coldly and curled his lips.

"It's better to listen to Guangqi's opinion. This kid is quite knowledgeable, so it's good to listen to it."

Li Xiangxiu saw that Bai Jingqi was silent, so she helped out.

"Alright then, come in, Guangqi."

After hearing this, Bai Jingqi nodded and said to Liu Guangqi outside the door.

"Master, Uncle Bai, Aunt Bai"

After Liu Guangqi entered the room, he greeted those sitting in the room.

"Well, sit down first. Tell me about your Brother Zhanguang going to the Northeast to go to college, can you go?"

Bai Jingqi looked at Liu Guangqi and nodded, then asked.

"I think I should go, and I must go."

"What do you know, kid? The Northeast is in turmoil right now. If you go there, if the Americans call you, you will be killed."

Before Liu Guangqi finished speaking, Bai Jingye retorted impatiently.

"But Americans don't dare."

"What are Americans afraid of? They have strong soldiers and horses, and it's not like playing with us. You kid is just talking nonsense here, Dad, don't listen to him, you can't let Zhanguang go."

"Uncle Bai, I don't object to your saying that the U.S. military is strong and strong, but I disagree with you saying that he treats us like playing games. Do you know the current situation in North Korea? If you know the current situation in North Korea, you will feel pain in your face. Have you ever understood it?"

Liu Guangqi looked at Bai Jingye and asked back.

"Let's live a good life, but who cares about that."

Bai Jingye tilted his head and pouted his mouth.Liu Guangqi looked at Bai Jingqi and Li Xiangxiu again, while Tang Youqiong was perfectly ignored.

"I haven't noticed it either. If it wasn't for Zhanguang going to school, I wouldn't even know where North Korea is."

Bai Jingqi glanced at Li Xiangxiu, and Li Xiangxiu also shook his head.

"I knew you wouldn't care. You don't care. I care. My neighbor's brother happened to be on the Korean battlefield. To reassure the old lady, I would listen to the radio when I have nothing to do. Guess what's going on in North Korea now."

"How's it going?"

When Bai Jingqi heard that he was interested, his tiger eyes widened.Others also turned their attention to Liu Guangqi, and even Baimei and the others who were eavesdropping outside also pricked up their ears.

"You can't believe it. When we entered the DPRK last year, Lao Mei was almost hitting the Yalu River, and the sound of Lao Mei's plane could be heard in Andong. Now, it's only been a few months, Lao Mei The United States has been pushed back to the [-]th parallel by us and has sat on the negotiating table.”

"Really, don't fool us"

Bai Jingye still didn't believe it. In his opinion, the US military is so powerful, how could it be defeated by a group of beggars with fire sticks.

"Meng, how can you be fooled by this kind of thing? Two days ago, on July [-]st, the U.S. military announced an armistice and peace talks. This is the news broadcast by the U.S. military. Our newspapers have also published it. Don't you all read current affairs news?"

"Even if it's a peace talk, it's just a tactic to delay the attack. Don't forget that they have atomic bombs. One bomb will destroy the whole of Beiping. What do you use to fight against them?"

Bai Jingye was still stubborn, and took out the atomic bomb to talk about it.

Chapter 34, Persuasion 2

"The atomic bomb is really awesome, but he has the atomic bomb, don't we have it? Mr. Bai, you see the problem is really too shallow. From the beginning of this war, it was not a war between North Korea and South Korea, China and the United States, but a war between two countries." A confrontation between the two camps"

"The United States on the capitalist side has an atomic bomb, but so does the Soviet Union on our socialist side. The Soviet Union's atomic bomb was successfully tested in August 1949. Although it may not be comparable to the other party in terms of numbers, it is enough to deal with the current situation. up.

The greatest power of the atomic bomb is when it falls before it falls, so the teacher said it was a paper tiger. "

"Mike Asa, the commander-in-chief of the Far East of the United States, said a long time ago that he would use atomic bombs against us, but he has stepped down for more than two months now, and he has not seen the US military use atomic bombs. Why is this, and it is not because he is afraid of the Soviet Union behind us Well."

"Meiko, aren't you a student from a cadre's family? How can a child from a poor worker's family know so much? It's also about the atomic bomb and the international situation."

Bai Zhanan, who was eavesdropping outside the door, saw Liu Guangqi's smooth talk, and whispered:

"What happened to the worker's child? My student is not an ordinary person. Can an ordinary person publish three articles in a row in the daily newspaper?"

Bai Mei said proudly.Bai Mei said outside that Liu Guangqi continued talking inside, and said all the analysis he had seen on the forum about the Korean War.

"The U.S. military is so powerful, it has aircraft, cannons, warships and tanks, but why this war has become like this is not because the United States does not want to expand the war beyond North Korea and burn it to China, so it has been fighting with fear, and they have to keep on guard against the Soviet Union joining the war."

"Although it is embarrassing to say so, the fact is that as long as the 30 Soviet troops stationed at Luda are still there, the U.S. military will never dare to attack the Northeast. The 30 Soviet troops are the talisman of the Northeast. This is why I say the United States No reason."

A trace of helplessness flashed in Liu Guangqi's eyes when he mentioned Luda.

"Then according to what you say, Lao Mei will definitely not be able to hit the Northeast."

After listening to Liu Guangqi's analysis, Bai Jingqi probably understood the situation in front of him, knocked on the pipe in his mouth and said.

"Not only can we not fight, but I think this war will end in a year or so. The United States is different from us. The president of the United States is elected, and the United States implements a two-party system. If the current president does not do well, he will be impeached by the hostile political party."

"Take the current U.S. President Truman as an example. In the face of the current war, if he chooses to expand the scale of the war and enter the Northeast, he will have to face the existence of the Great Soviet Army. If the war goes wrong and this local war becomes protracted and suffers heavy casualties, the U.S. economy will inevitably be hit hard. He and his ruling party will also suffer serious political blows. Instead of doing this, it is better to end this war as soon as possible. Anyway, their purpose is not to help South Korea unify the peninsula. As long as they maintain the status quo. Then they can have multiple excuses on the peninsula. Garrison."

"Secondly, public opinion in the United States is also very important. In the past World War II, almost all countries were ravaged by war. Many people died in this war. The Soviet Union killed 700 million people, we died 800 million, Germany 800 million, Japan 300 million, and the United States was no exception. In World War II, the United States alone killed more than 40 people."

Everyone also knew that many people died in the world wars in the past few years, but after hearing the statistics listed by Liu Guangqi, they still felt a chill in their backs.

"At first glance, 40 doesn't seem like a lot, especially compared to the previous ones. It's not even a fraction. But Americans don't think so. Since the founding of the United States, so many people have died in the United States. Fighting on the battlefield, they prefer to ride horses in the western grasslands and fight in bars. But the situation at that time was so unavoidable that people would call on them, and they couldn't do it if they didn't want to fight.

After finally surviving the Second World War, the government actually started another war in just a few years. Americans who are naturally romantic and love freedom can't stand it, so the anti-war sentiment among Americans is not as strong as usual.

Not only the Americans, but also those countries in Europe. They were afraid that the Americans would annoy the Soviet Union on the peninsula. Comrade Stalin would directly march westward. That would be a torrent of tens of thousands of tanks. "

"In order to avoid this situation, the best way is peace talks. In fact, our country persuaded our neighbors not to start a war from the very beginning, but the other side refused to listen. That's why the trouble has become what it is now. In fact, at the beginning, neither side planned to fight here. The forces have already been divided."

Liu Guangqi peeked outside while talking, why didn't Bai Zhanyuan come here? He was almost out of words, and Bai Zhanyuan lived not far from here. .

"When you say that, I feel a little relieved. It seems that the Northeast is not as dangerous as we thought."

After Liu Guangqi said so much, he finally brought back the old man's ideas.Seeing that the old man's attitude was loose, Liu Guangqi hit the railway while it was hot.

"At this time, the Northeast is not only not dangerous, but also very safe, because it is not only close to the Soviet Union, but also the only heavy industry base in our country at present, and the defense force is very strong."

Liu Guangqi thought about it and decided to say something dry

"Old man, I have something to say, which should actually be said in private, but since the words are out of the way, I will say it clearly. Since ancient times, the people who win the hearts of the people have won the world. Now the situation is very clear. Lao Chang has been thrown into the sea. Even with the support of the Americans, he will probably only live on an island for the rest of his life.

The world is already red, and now the workers and peasants are in charge.The world has changed, and the Bai family should change accordingly. Capitalists are not welcome under the current situation, and they will probably be suppressed in the next 20 years.

If you want to save the Bai family, you must learn to adapt to the situation. The first step to adapt to the situation is to participate in the construction of this country and make yourself a part of the construction of this country.Letting Brother Zhanguang go to college is a good start. I think you may not know what kind of university Brother Zhanguang was admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology.

This university is one of the two model universities in our country to learn from the Soviet Union. As long as you come out of it, you are an engineer, and the projects you participate in are all important projects related to national defense. The leaders in the school are several times higher than Brother Zhanyuan. Level, Brother Zhanguang's admission to this university is definitely an opportunity for the Bai family from God. You will not forget what the old lady did to redeem the old name of the Bai family. "

What Liu Guangqi said was very cryptic, but he felt that the old man would definitely understand what he meant.

Sure enough, after hearing Liu Guangqi mentioning his mother, the old man froze there, his eyes staring at the void, as if he was recalling the past, the people around him could see the old man's appearance, and understood that the old man was making the final decision .Finally, after pondering for a long time, the tiger's eyes opened, a bright light flashed in his eyes, he slammed the table and said.

"Go, tell Zhanguang to let him go, study hard after he goes, and strive to become a useful person like his elder brother."

"Yeah, I won, eat watermelon,"

As soon as the old man made a decision, there was a pleasant cheer outside the door, and everyone looked and found that it was Bai Hui.

"Okay, you guys dare to bet on things. You guys, whoever loses, hurry up and buy watermelon, let me eat a piece too, I've been talking with your dad for a long time, and my mouth is dry."

When the old man saw the grandchildren outside the door, he first made a face and then showed a bright smile.

Seeing that his father had already made a decision, Bai Jingye knew that it was useless to say anything, so he just ignored it and limped towards his house with a cane.

"What's going on, it's hard to be admitted to university, it's the time to pursue progress and build a country with blood and blood in the good years. Why don't you let me go. Isn't this a hindrance?"

Just as everyone was taking out the watermelon and was about to cut it, there was a loud shout from outside the door, very resembling the old man Bai when he was furious. As soon as the voice fell, everyone saw Bai Zhanyuan coming in from the door angrily.

"What are you yelling about?"

Bai Jingqi looked at this grandson who had the same temper as his own with a smile on his lips.

Chapter 35, Persuasion 3

"Didn't it be agreed to let Zhanguang go to the Northeast to go to university? Why did he change his mind again?"

Bai Zhanyuan stared at a pair of copper bell-like eyes, walked up to Bai Jingqi with creaking steps and questioned.

"Okay, I know I've found someone, and I've made progress."

Bai Jingqi ignored Bai Zhanyuan in front of him, looked at Bai Zhanguang who followed Bai Zhanyuan and said.

"Don't scare him. Why don't you let him go? It's not easy to get into a university. You have to let him stay at home and wait to die like a rice bug."

Bai Zhanyuan continued to ask, and when he heard his elder brother say that he was a rice bug, the other young masters and ladies in the mansion gate were angry but there was nothing they could do.

"Didn't say no to let go, isn't this a discussion?"

Bai Jingqi looked at Bai Zhanyuan with a smile on his lips.

"What about the result of the discussion? We discussed whether to go or not to let go. What do you tell me about such a family? Such a good opportunity, others can't ask for it, and you just gave up like this. Americans are so terrible. Well, if it was really that terrible, why would we push it back to the [-]th parallel and bring it to the negotiating table. This family is really too rotten, and they don’t know how to be positive at all.”

"Hey, did you come back to help your brother out, or did you come back to criticize and criticize him? What's wrong with this family? If you dare to yell again, you'll get the hell out of me. If you don't want to enter, don't enter. No one is forcing you"

Bai Jingqi, who had figured it out, was in a good mood at first, but Bai Zhanyuan's scolding immediately turned his mood into a bad mood.

"I, I just don't understand why you don't let me go when it's a good thing."

Seeing his grandfather getting angry, Bai Zhanyuan softened his attitude, and said earnestly.

"Who said I won't let him go, I agreed. He wants to go now."

"You, you agreed, then why do you ask me to come back?"

Bai Zhanyuan was dumbfounded when he heard it, and everyone agreed that it was nothing to shout at him just now.

"It was our father who didn't agree. Grandpa wanted Zhanguang to go, but he was afraid of the danger in the northeast, so he kept hesitating. It happened that Guangqi came and told grandpa about the situation on the Korean battlefield and the current international situation. After listening to it, grandpa agreed that Zhanguang should go to school."

Bai Mei saw her elder brother standing in the same place, confused, so she hurriedly stepped forward to explain the situation to him.

"It turned out to be Guangqi. I heard about you, a celebrity from Hongxing Middle School. The article you wrote was on the front page of the daily for three consecutive days. I read the article you wrote about me and my motherland. The emotion is really too sincere.

I said how could my grandfather change his mind so easily? It turned out to be because of you. Our Bai family still needs to get in touch with progressive elements like you who are workers, so that we can clear and transform the feudal and decadent thoughts in our minds. . "

When Bai Zhanyuan heard Baimei's words, he immediately changed his expression, and with a smile on his face, he came to Liu Guangqi under Baimei's guidance.

"White District Chief is overwhelmed. I also did my best to help the old man analyze the situation. The main reason is that the old man has vision and foresight and made the right choice."

Liu Guangqi casually said that he had been under Bai Jingqi's door for some time, and he had been to the gate of the Bai family mansion many times, and this was the first time he had seen the real Bai Zhanyuan.From Bai Zhanyuan's performance and words just now, it can be seen how much he hates the Bai family in his heart, and how much he envies Liu Guangqi's worker-peasant background.

"I heard that you are now worshiping my grandfather as a teacher to learn medical skills from his old man. I personally welcome this kind of thing. Please come often in the future and get in touch with my family more, so that they can experience new ideas."

"Well, definitely, definitely."

"Since grandpa has agreed, I'll go back first. There are still a lot of things waiting for me in the district."

Now that the matter has been resolved, Bai Zhanyuan doesn't intend to stay here anymore. After talking to the old man, he left the gate of the Bai family mansion without looking back, not even eating the cut watermelon.

"Look at his appearance, it seems that he was born in this house and he was in the dark. He didn't want to stay for a while, and he completely forgot that if I hadn't risked my life back then, he would have died a long time ago, and he would still be here today."

Looking at Bai Zhanyuan's back, Bai Jingqi raised his beard in anger.Seeing this, Li Xiangxiu hurried over to give the old man a break.

"Why are you still here, why don't you hurry up, you won't catch the train in a while, you just know how to eat."

After scolding Bai Zhanyuan, Bai Jingqi saw Bai Zhanguang who was still gnawing watermelon around the table again, and said badly.

"Hey, I'm leaving now."

Bai Zhanguang quickly took two mouthfuls, and threw the watermelon rind aside in his hand. It's not too pleasant to eat a watermelon just fished from the well in this summer.

"I'll send you off"

Liu Guangqi walked to Bai Zhanguang's side and helped him pick up a box.

"No need to deliver, my rickshaw will be there in a while."

When he came to the door, Bai Zhanguang told the people who came to see him off one by one.When it was Liu Guangqi's turn, Liu Guangqi pulled him aside and whispered.

"Brother Zhanguang, you went out to call people just now. You didn't hear some words. Let me tell you again. The situation is different now. It's not the time of the Republic of China. Capitalists like you are not welcome, so you must act low-key. Don't put on airs when you go to school. Make friends with classmates who come from worker-peasant families. Be careful not to show that you are rich when socializing, and stay away from those capitalists. You are a smart person, but you are trapped at home. When you get to school , you will soon understand the current situation."

Liu Guangqi simply dialed a few words, what to do is up to Bai Zhanguang himself, anyway, he has changed his life once, whether he can walk out of a different life depends on his own old age.

Facts have proved that Bai Zhanguang is indeed a sensible person. After staying in school for a while, he understood the meaning of Liu Guangqi in the words. After gradually changing his mind to Bai Zhanyuan, he really made a lot of achievements.

"Ugh"

Liu Guangqi looked at Bai Zhanguang who was going away, and sighed in his heart. In fact, the best result for the Bai family was to sell the family property and go to Hong Kong before entering the city.
