Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 966: Sense of Identity Cultivated Since Childhood

The next morning, after a night's rest, Margaret and Alyssa got up and saw Chu Xiangqian in his training clothes. They knew that Chu Xiangqian must have gotten up early to practice martial arts again.

Since he had the energy to get up so early and exercise, he must not have spent much energy playing games with Xue Jinglan and the others last night.

But thinking about this guy's physical strength that never gets tired, it seems that Xue Jinglan and the others really can't defeat him.

Margaret held Chu Jingxing who had just woken up, and said to Chu Xiangqian, "Honey, Henry said he wanted to see the Great Wall. Are you free today?"

Chu Xiangqian took Jingxing and kissed him on the forehead, seeing the little guy's expectant look.

He smiled and said, "Dad will not only take you to climb the Great Wall, but also to the Forbidden City and the Old Summer Palace. After the Chinese New Year, we will climb Mount Tai and Mount Huang to see the grasslands and snow-capped mountains."

The more Chu Jingxing listened, the more anticipation and smile appeared on his face.

She hugged her father's neck and nodded continuously, then kissed Chu Xiangqian several times, "Daddy, I kissed you, you can't lie to me."

Chu Xiangqian laughed and nodded, "Don't worry, Dad will definitely take you, Mom, Aunt, Brother, and your younger brothers and sisters out to play."

However, when this was said, think about the fact that Jingyu and Jingshun were only half a year old, and Jingfu was just one month old.

If I take the three of them around, they might suffer from acclimatization problems.

This is not the era of several decades later when the water we drink and use is tap water.

The so-called acclimatization is nothing more than the difference in water and temperature between the north and the south, which can easily make people sick.

The most common symptoms are cold, fever and diarrhea.

Moreover, after the New Year, except for a few southernmost provinces, other places are still quite cold.

If they get sick, even with the blood bottles in the novice village, the three children will still suffer.

Looking at Alyssa, “Jingfu is still too young. When we travel in the capital, let Lanlan and the others take care of the little guy.”

Alyssa nodded without any objection. She trusted Xue Jinglan very much, and there was really no need for Xue Jinglan to be afraid of Alyssa and Jingfu.

The 30 million US dollars held by charitable funds in Hong Kong alone were all used to buy shares in major American companies.

In the past two years, the annual increase has been several percent to more than ten percent.

It was enough to make Xue Jinglan not worry at all that she and her children would have a bad life in the future.

Not to mention that Chu Xiangqian gave Jingyu two buildings in Central.

Many of his businesses in Hong Kong have been handed over to Xue Jinglan to manage.

This means that on the surface, half of Hong Kong Island’s wealth is in Xue Jinglan’s hands.

Of course, the property rights must still be under Chu Xiangqian's name.

But for Xue Jinglan, this is confidence.

Otherwise, no matter how magnanimous Xue Jinglan was, she would never allow Chu Xiangqian to fool around and have children outside.

During breakfast, Xue Jinglan and Gangsheng were reluctant to go out in such a cold weather because they had to take care of Jingyu and Jingshun.

Besides, they have both been to the Great Wall and the Forbidden City several times, so they are not really willing to go when invited.

Chu Xiangqian beat him up again last night. Although the anger he felt had dissipated, his body still felt a little weak.

I am even more reluctant to go out.

As for Zheng Shufen, Feifei, Jinzhi and Jinxiu, they were also severely punished yesterday.

In a very good mood, he glanced at Alyssa and Margaret who were in high spirits.

She thought to herself that she should give Margaret and the other two a chance to go out and play with their men for a few days alone.

Only Zheng Baoyi and Ai Qiu, although they had been to the Great Wall and the Forbidden City, would still be willing to go again if they went out with Chu Xiangqian.

But before the two little girls could even open their mouths, they were suppressed by Second Aunt and Zheng Shufen.

In the end, only Jingrong and Jingxing, wearing cotton hats, thick gloves and bulky cotton coats, followed their father, Margaret and others into the car and went directly to the Great Wall.

Climbing the Great Wall is not much fun, and as it is almost the end of the year, it is not only cold but also windy.

It’s really not a good season for traveling.

But when they climbed the Great Wall and looked at the winding, endless walls, let alone Margaret and Alyssa.

Jingrong and Jingxing were also shocked by such a magnificent building.

In my little heart, I couldn't help but be filled with curiosity and respect for the Celestial Empire.

However, for Jing Xing, he still doesn't know what respect means, but deep in his heart he can't help but have a good impression of the Tianchao.

This is the result that both Chu Xiangqian and Margaret hope for.

Perhaps it was because Chu Xiangqian was really too good to her. In Margaret's heart, she had long considered herself the daughter-in-law of the Celestial Empire.

Over the years, I have never stopped understanding the Celestial Empire.

The more I know, the more curious I become about China.

And I was deeply attracted by the history and culture of the Celestial Empire.

That’s why I have to come to China to celebrate the New Year.

After getting off the Great Wall at noon, Chu Xiangqian said to Zhang Haiyang who was driving, "Let's go to the forest farm. I'll take Jingxing to see his grandfather."

Zhang Haiyang was stunned. He looked back at Chu Xiangqian and saw him nod affirmatively before he agreed.

The accompanying staff were all members of the team led by Xue Jianguo.

The purpose of establishing this group is to help Chu Xiangqian solve trivial matters, troubles and security issues in the Celestial Empire.

No one would object to this normal reason.

Some people even hope that Chu Xiangqian, a compatriot who left Beijing and became famous and powerful in Hong Kong Island, would still remember where his hometown is.

Of course, even Zhang Haiyang in this group didn’t know many things about Chu Xiangqian.

Even Xue Jianguo didn't know that Chu Xiangqian had stolen the most advanced computers from Europe, the exterior and interior designs of submarines, and photos of Kennedy and Monroe.

As for the fact that Chu Xiangqian helped a regiment led by Xue Jianrong in Tianzhu in 62 by providing supplies, horses, mortars and a large number of artillery shells, Xue Jianguo and Zhang Haiyang knew about it.

As for other members of the team, some were responsible for transporting the grain that Chu Xiangqian brought back from abroad.

Therefore, everyone regarded Chu Xiangqian as one of their own, or at least as a patriotic friend.

It took the four cars more than two hours to arrive outside the forest farm.

Chu Xiangqian did not let the convoy go in, for fear that they would be seen by the people in the forest farm and surrounded by a group of people.

Maybe I can't leave tonight and have to stay in the forest farm to have a meal and drink some wine.

This is actually nothing. Anyway, Chu Xiangqian, the behind-the-scenes boss of the bamboo product export business, feels justified in eating a meal at the forest farm.

But Margaret and Alyssa were obviously foreigners, and when the storm came, they might get into unnecessary trouble.

Maybe even the export business of bamboo products will be affected.

Chu Xiangqian and Aiyuan certainly don't care about this business, but it affects the income of the forestry workers and villagers in several surrounding villages. Their future life will not be as good as it is now.

And my father’s grave might even be dug up.

We walked to the small hill, and I didn’t expect that Jingrong, who just turned one year old the year before last, still remembered that this was where his grandfather was buried.

He pointed to the adobe house on the hillside not far away and said to Jingxing excitedly, "Brother, that's where grandpa and dad used to live."

Chu Jingxing, Margaret, and Alyssa were stunned and looked at Chu Xiangqian in surprise, who was holding Jingrong and Jingxing at the same time.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and said, "Henry, in the past, your father and grandfather were not only lumberjacks, but also hunters. They would go hunting in the mountains in the fall. If there was no food, they had to find prey even in the heavy snow, otherwise they would starve."

Not only did Jingrong and Jingxing find this incredible, but Margaret and Alyssa also never expected that their men would have such a difficult childhood.

Chu Xiangqian thought for a few seconds, and finally said it was the winter of 59, before he was reborn into this world.

My father and his predecessor went into the mountains to hunt and encountered a blind bear. In the end, my father was killed by the blind bear in order to protect his predecessor.

The accompanying staff, of course, knew about Chu Xiangqian’s experiences in the capital before and after his rebirth.

Even after Chu Xiangqian went to Hong Kong Island, they still knew a lot about some things.

Of course, the superiors had already issued strict orders not to take the initiative to inquire or find out anything about Chu Xiangqian.

But this team is responsible for handling Chu Xiangqian’s affairs in the Celestial Empire and protecting the safety of him and his family.

It's impossible not to check anything.

I couldn't help but feel admiration for Chu Xiangqian again.

After this guy recovered from his injury, he went into the mountains and killed the blind bear.

And since then, it seemed as if he had opened up his Ren and Du meridians. He went into the mountains alone to hunt, and he became a ruthless man who could kill wild boars, wolves, and even tigers.

After entering the city, they wiped out Taiwan's two intelligence groups in the capital and captured a high-level leader alive.

After going to Hong Kong Island, things got out of control.

In just a few years, he became worth hundreds of millions.

Not to mention the huge amount of money he spent during the difficult period to transport several tons, dozens of tons, hundreds of tons, and finally tens of thousands of tons of grain to the country.

This money had always been owed by the boss, which shows how good Chu Xiangqian is at making money.

The more they thought about it, the more grateful the accompanying staff became to Chu Xiangqian.

Many people thought that when things were difficult, they and their families must have eaten the food he brought back.

Otherwise, who knows how many people would starve to death in the capital and the surrounding provinces and cities.

When looking at Margaret and Alyssa again, no one thought that Chu Xiangqian had any problems with his personal morality.

When a person's achievements and contributions reach a certain level, as long as he is not a public official and just has many women around him, that is not a shortcoming but an advantage.

At least it wouldn't be a reason to attack him.

He took a concubine legally in Hong Kong Island and it was consensual, so there is really no reason to attack him.

At most, you could curse him behind his back.

As for Margaret, deep down, her fellow staff members admired Chu Xiangqian even more.

Even the two female translators, although they previously thought that Chu Xiangqian was not a good person, now feel that Chu Xiangqian has greatly boosted the morale of the Chinese people.

If it were in ancient times, it would mean winning the favor of a princess from another country and forcing her to marry him, a Chinese.

Even if they cannot get married legally, she is willing to give birth to his children.

Maybe it will be recorded in history books.

But think about it, Chu Xiang provided hundreds of thousands of tons of food to the higher-ups in the past few years.

In the past two years, the coal business has not only repaid more than 100 million US dollars of grain debts.

In 65, it also helped the superiors earn hundreds of millions of US dollars in foreign exchange, greatly alleviating the financial pressure on the superiors.

If this business can be run for another two or three years, it will be enough to make up for the debt owed by the Polar Bear in order to aid China and complete its basic industries.

Just based on these two points, Chu Xiangqian's achievements might be recorded in history books a hundred or two hundred years later.

No, it should be the disclosure of the deeds related to Chu Xiangqian that have been kept in the confidential files.

When Chu Xiangqian dies, as long as he has not done anything to harm the Celestial Empire in his future life.

Make sure to bury the flag of womanhood.
-
It was the first time that Jingrong knew that his grandfather had saved his father's life.

Like Jingxing, Margaret, and Alyssa, I immediately felt respect for this old man buried in a somewhat crude grave.

Margaret and Alyssa saluted with their hands clasped together.

Otherwise, I would not have lived as well as I do now in the past few years.

Margaret almost married a photographer. Just thinking about the past few years, her annual pocket money would be hundreds of thousands of pounds.

I know that life can't be compared.

Alyssa went to Hong Kong Island for the same reason as Linda, that is, she didn’t want to be a tool for family marriage.

After arriving in Hong Kong Island, it didn’t take long for me to get to know Chu Xiangqian.

She will definitely become the foreigner's mistress like Linda.

Compared with Chu Xiangqian, those powerful foreigners are nothing.

Jingrong, who was much more sensible, knelt down on the cold ground and kowtowed several times without anyone teaching him.

Jingxing also came down from Chu Xiangqian's arms and kowtowed a few times like his brother.

Chu Xiangqian was very pleased to see this.

The people accompanying them all smiled kindly at the two little guys.

Needless to say, Jingrong will definitely be the heir to Chu Xiangqian's industries, connections, and power in Hong Kong Island in the future.

When Jingxing grows up, his influence on Yingguo will certainly not be low.

To put it snobbishly, these people are hoping that the two boys will have a strong sense of identification with the Celestial Empire.

As for Chu Xiangqian, who brought his two children to visit their grandfather, in the minds of the staff, his goal was to cultivate the next generation's identification and love for the Celestial Empire.

Chu leaned forward and hugged the two little guys, kissed each of them, praised them for doing a good job, and reminded them not to forget that their roots were here.

Also in China.

Jing Rong nodded heavily without hesitation. Although Jing Xing hesitated for a moment, he looked at his biological mother.

Seeing Margaret nod to him, he nodded and said, "Daddy, I remember."

Chu Xiangqian happily kissed the two little guys on the forehead again.

As he looked towards the tombstone, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart and thought silently that although he occupied this body, since he had the memories of his previous life, he could be considered a true member of the Chu family.

According to the Chinese belief in continuing the family line, I have four sons, which is definitely a great achievement.

If we follow the Chinese people's pursuit of patriotism, then it is not an exaggeration to say that I have made a contribution to the present generation.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiangqian suddenly felt that he had done something beneficial to his country and family in his life.

I stood up and looked at my father's grave. I was silent for a while and suddenly remembered a plot in a movie.

He smiled and said to the tombstone, "Dad, for the past six years, I have tried my best to live a better life every day.

I hope that everything I have done will live up to the life you gave me.”

After saying that, Chu Xiangqian saluted the tombstone.

That tall and straight figure made Margaret, Alyssa, Jingrong, Jingxing, Zhang Haiyang and others feel that the man in front of them was so tall.
