8 It was not Shanghai that forgot him
,
What Han Huaiyi didn't expect was.
He changed the marriage law out of frustration with his son.
But it wasn't Tony who benefited first.
One day a week later, Ma Moye suddenly came to Han Huaiyi with a strange face.
He said, "Charlie, there's something I want to tell you. ”
"What's wrong?"
"Albert is married."
"Huh?"
"This guy ran to the civil office at City Hall yesterday afternoon to register his cousin as his legal wife. He is now the first person in Wakanda to have two wives. In addition, this guy is probably afraid of being scolded, and he dragged Feng Caihou and more than 20 of them together. ”
Han Huaiyi looked at the list.
Feng Caihou, Bai Qi, Wei Litao, Vasily...
Han Huaiyi collapsed.
He really couldn't imagine that Einstein and Feng Caihou were like foremen hooking shoulders.
It's a weird picture.
"I have two wives, it's so deep, didn't you find it before?"
"I found out, but I didn't expect these guys to take it seriously, or maybe after the marriage law came out, the juniors were on the throne manually, after all...
"And what about you, Mamoyer?"
"I didn't, my wife and I had a deep affection, and she said she would die with me if I dared to do that."
Han Huaiyi looked at the bitter gourd-faced Ma Moye and sneered: "Well, live and die together." ”
"What to do? They didn't break the law, but these bastards were too undisciplined. Mamoye said indignantly.
Han Huaiyi felt that he came this time to take care of both public and private interests, and it was more likely that he was very jealous.
Han Huaiyi sighed: "What can I do? To be honest, Tony's wedding was too abrupt, although future generations of people who understand will know how shameless I did for my son. Those feminists will also nail me to the pillar of shame and whip me endlessly. ”
"That's good, too."
"What?"
"Nothing." Mamoye tightened his uniform and said solemnly: "This may turn bad." ”
"So in 1950, I was going to be a rebel against this kind of law, and with the popularization of women's education and the improvement of their consciousness, this kind of thing should be less and less."
"But it is undeniable that powerful and rich men are much more selective and have a much greater chance of being chased."
"We can't change our nature, so why don't men work hard to achieve such a status?"
While Han Huaiyi and Ma Moye were discussing this issue, Bai Qi knocked on the door and came in.
"Huaiyi, I have something I want to tell you."
"What's wrong?"
"Chen Dayou can't stay in Shanghai anymore and go to San Francisco, so he wrote to me yesterday and wanted to ask me to help approve his entry into Wakanda."
"He also wrote to Brother Wei Yungong and Pei Dazhong."
Han Huaiyi already knew about this, but he didn't expect Chen Dayou to actually write a letter to Bai Qi.
In the early years, Chen Dayou was a dignified prefect, and Bai Qi was the owner of a flower building.
Both societies are heaven and earth.
After the Qing court, everything took a turn.
Twenty years, how many people and things have changed in these twenty years.
Hiding the emotion in his heart, Han Huaiyi asked him, "Then what do you mean?" ”
"After all, that guy helped us back then, and he took good care of me when you went to Shanghai first." Bai Qi's meaning was obvious, but he said: "Chen Dayou also made amends for his nephew's matter, and he said that it would be good for his family to come." ”
"Okay, limit him to only one family, and arrange job training and employment according to the situation of his children. As for him, arrange an old-age security for him, and the house will be with Pei Dazhong and them. ”
Bai Qi nodded, and then said, "The matter of my marriage to Xiaowen is also a last resort. ”
His wife's name is Zhang Xiaowen and she is his secretary.
“。。。。。”
"Huaiyi, I won't hide it from you, I study and work every day, but the yellow-faced woman at home plays mahjong every day, I got close to Xiaowen at work, and we have many common topics."
"I don't care about your private life, just pay attention to yourself. But your yellow-faced woman seems to be a famous beauty in Yangzhou back then. Didn't you think about letting her learn something new? ”
"Don't mention it, Huaiyi. Since giving birth to two children, she has said that her mission is complete... ”
After Han Huaiyi waited for him to leave, he spread his hands with Ma Moye and Melo, who came over to talk about other things: "Look, I have to say that this kind of thing is two-sided. ”
"Now the upper-class family atmosphere in Wakanda is that the eldest wives play mahjong in groups, and the second wives keep pace with the times and are the masters of the house." Melo also smiled, and then said: "Especially among the Chinese, this situation is very common, as soon as the marriage law is changed, the second wives immediately take the position, and many big wives are angry not else, angry is that they should be considered concubines, why did they become equal wives." ”
"And then scold me behind my back?" Han Huaiyi smiled bitterly.
"That's not true, they only scolded the second wife for being a little maid, saying that the man was a white-eyed wolf, and wiped away their tears and continued to play mahjong."
Han Huaiyi shook his head: "Let's do this for now, they come from a past era, and their thinking and lifestyle cannot be changed. ”
Bai Qi has a lot of respect for Chen Dayou.
He did not write a letter, but telegraphed directly to the Wakanda embassy in San Francisco.
Chen Dayou got the news and left for Wakanda the next day.
The last time he was in Wakanda was a long time ago.
He remembered that he had only learned about the changes in the Qing court after he set foot in Wakanda that day.
When he walked along the relatively familiar Panama Canal and bypassed Colombia and Venezuela, when he saw the mighty warships cruising in the Caribbean Sea and the five-pointed star red flag belonging to the Caribbean Naval Command in Wakanda, Chen Dayou thought of the chaos outside the Shanghai Concession, and his heart was full of sighs.
Shanghai is also in chaos now.
Although Du Yuesheng took care of and respected him, it was a concession after all.
The Shanghai Mansion built by Han Huaiyi has been renovated twice.
The same is true for the big world.
But no matter how much it is renovated, it still shows a dilapidated atmosphere, and the people who come and go in the Shanghai club are already domestic warlords and gang figures.
Now the high-level officials of the concession have been lingering in the foreigners' club on the Bund.
Han Huaiyi's influence has been weakened to the extreme, and it is rarely mentioned by the people.
But Chen Dayou knows better than anyone that it was Han Huaiyi who discarded Shanghai, not Shanghai who forgot him.
As long as he comes back, he can change, but he just won't come back.
Some people also say that Han Huaiyi is afraid of the increasingly prosperous Japan, after all, the Japanese are in Hongkou, and the foreigners who are gradually pressing in the open sea are scruples.
Chen Dayou initially believed in this statement.
Han Huaiyi beat up the devil in Hawaii, and if he comes back, the Japanese will definitely not let him go.
But when he arrived in San Francisco, where there were many high-rise buildings, when he saw the troops as strong as Citigroup and the armament of the five-pointed star flag, Chen Dayou felt that the previous statement was too.
