Statement: This story is purely fictional, and if there is any similarity, it is purely coincidental.
The story took place in the 1920s and 1930s at the beginning of the last century. There was such a young man who called Dongfang Yunlong, who was both poor and weak, but his ancestors were very rich, but in his generation, only a few broken tiled houses were left (there were not many tiled houses in the countryside at that time), and all the things that could be sold were sold, and some gold and silver were robbed by robbers and bandits. Only these old houses were preserved because they were already dilapidated. Fortunately, I am fortunate that even though I was poor, I still supported my children to go to school for the past few years. The private school used to be my own, but it was no longer the same as Dongfang Yunlong's generation. But thanks to the reputation of his ancestors, the gentry (also owned by the fifth squad) still has to give some face on the surface. The ancestors of the Dongfang family have produced the top scholar and first-rank officials. The top scholar and the top scholar in the village have been established for hundreds of years in the storm. Whenever Dongfang Yunlong's father mentioned these, he always burst into tears. A seed that was originally a superior person was planted in Xiao Yunlong's heart, but he was not Ah Q written by Mr. Zhou Shuren . He could only say in his heart that my ancestors had been rich, and what other words did his son beat me, etc. spiritual victory method . He seized the hard work of studying every day in the school. He learned everything from others to learn for three years. His husband was shocked to be a child prodigy and was worthy of being the descendant of the top scholar. In less than three or four years, my husband has no books to teach. The gentry (also from the family who came out of the Five Courses) saw that the child was a talented person, so he raised funds to send him to Dongyang. A teenage child is thin and his mother is reluctant to leave him, but for the sake of his child's future and future, he still resolutely sent him onto the ship he studied abroad. Of course, countless tears flowed, including mothers, sons, and childhood sweethearts (let’s call it Mei Gu Niang)
. As the whistle sounded, the boat,
, gradually drifted away, and finally disappeared into the vast sea.
In the Eastern Oriental Cloud Dragon desperately absorbs Western knowledge like a sponge. Everything is strange, so novel, so intoxicating. Of course, Western things are also of varying quality, but they are only those who accept them. In the years that I was in Dongyang, Dongfang Yunlong's body became better (it used to be malnourished) and his mind became active, so naturally women also had it. There are naturally too many girls who are as good as him who pursue him. Fortunately, he is not a promiscuous person and has not practiced certain Western theories, otherwise there will be more trouble in the future. The girl from Dongyang is his teacher's daughter. His teacher (what's the name? Let's call him Yamamoto Ichiro. Japan is a wolf. Gu
and so called it) Yamamoto Ichiro spent his youth in China and was a Chinese master. His daughter Junko Yamamoto was also born in China.
In those years in the East, he often wrote to his mother and sent some money and goods back. I also sent a letter to Miss Mei. At first, it was a letter from Xiangsi and sent photos of her at the Dongyang School. It was endless lovesickness and endless concerns, and then it was novel. During that time, they wrote many letters. Miss Mei always advised him to study hard and take care of his health, not to always think of her, she would wait for him all her life (I am afraid that a woman who is so infatuated now can only be written by a literati). Of course, she also hopes that he will return to China as soon as possible and get married. As for those vows, the two sides have said it over and over again (I feel that the biggest lie is these words that have been ruined, and no one has ever said it and truly kept his promise). Gradually, as time goes by, fewer letters, sometimes one letter a month, and sometimes one letter a season. Mei Guniang knew that he was in a difficult academic career (it can be seen from the letter) and had a girlfriend (it can also be found from the words he dodged in the letter that women are sensitive animals. From the moment he boarded the ship to the East, he would lose his mental preparation. But she loved him deeply, and she firmly believed that he would not change his mind and would not abandon her)
in the East was happy, but often happy times were always short.With the change of national situation, Chinese students in Japan have gradually been discriminated against (in film and television works, Mr. Lu Xun's words can be clearly seen), and even people like Ichiro Yamamoto who have studied and worked in China have been subject to various restrictions and difficulties.
The world is changing and things are hard to predict. (To be followed up, return to China in the next chapter, write specific characters and plots)
