mixed in the war

"Sir, aren't you worried about the future?"

"The future? What future?"

Qin Wei now quite has the artistic conception described in Lu Xun's poem, "Hide in a small building to form a unified system, regardless of winter, summer and spring and autumn." Hiding in the White Mansion, apart from occasionally busying with his own affairs, he just sleeps and sleeps every day. To wake up naturally.Although it is still impossible to count the money and get cramps in his hands, he is not short of money at all right now.Whether it is the deputy director of the military command design committee, the senior councilor of the military order, or the senior consultant of the air force, they all get high salaries.Especially the part-time job of the military command, which should have the benefits, Dai Li is not short of him at all, and the treatment of the military command was far more than that of other departments during the Anti-Japanese War. Coupled with various private benefits, Qin Wei all I almost hope this kind of life can continue forever.Apart from money, other aspects of treatment are even more unimaginable to him before: a single mountain villa in the suburbs of Chongqing, and it is also a high-end villa. Don't even think about it.With a car, there is a class of elite guards, a beautiful secretary... other than household appliances, what else can he ask for?

"The future, of course, is the days to come." Zhou Tian sat across from Qin Wei and read the newspaper, "For example, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War...didn't you say that you couldn't go back? Since you can't go back, naturally you have to consider How will you live in the future. Do you intend to stay the same as you are now?"

"If the Anti-Japanese War was won, it would definitely be impossible to live here like now." Qin Wei looked away from the newspaper, "The Anti-Japanese War has been won, and I plan to go abroad."

"Going abroad?" Zhou Tian was taken aback, "Why?"

"Why else?" Qin Wei sighed, "As soon as the War of Resistance is over, the KMT and the Communist Party will definitely fight... to fight the invaders. I don't have the slightest psychological burden to cheat foreigners, but I can watch my own people fight ...I'm panicking in my heart. So, it's better to hide out. Anyway, if you don't see it, you don't see it!"

"But what can you do when you go abroad?" Zhou Tian stared at him for a while, and suddenly realized, "I understand, no wonder you want to find Chen Jiageng... Indonesia's oil is your paving the way for your future, right? ?”

"Smart boy." Qin Wei smiled, "You guessed it all. I started to believe that you really graduated from college when you were a teenager. You have also studied in Britain, France and Germany. How is it? Are you interested in talking to me when the time comes? I go together?"

"Why are you following?" Zhou Tian asked with a smile.

"Be a secretary!" Qin Wei shrugged, "Aren't you a language genius? When you arrive in Nanyang, you will definitely have to deal with those aborigines... I hate those monkeys the most, let alone imitate them. So, just find someone help."

"That is to say. You want me to be your microphone?" Zhou Tian was slightly annoyed.

"Don't make it so ugly, you can completely understand this job as: spokesperson!"

"Speaker?" Zhou Tian thought for a while. "Isn't that the same?"

"How can it be the same?" Qin Wei glanced at her. "What? You're not happy?"

"Are you happy to let you be a microphone?" Zhou Tian asked back.

"This is completely two natures." Qin Weidao, "And I'm not talking about you, Xiaotian, you can't think that you are great because you know three languages ​​and five languages, and everyone has to be thirsty for you. You can choose your job... There are so many talented people in this world who are useless, but without whom, the earth still rotates? You have to put your mind right."

"That's right, your mentality has always been very good." Zhou Tian smiled: "It's like the time you were wronged. I heard from Officer Shen. At the beginning, you almost killed someone. But it never happened. After a while, you should eat and drink, almost making him think that you have simply changed someone...Sir, you have such a good mentality and can relax so much, how did you practice?"

"Is it still necessary to practice?" Qin Wei smiled proudly, "I am born with a big heart. But the mentality is not good. To put it bluntly, it means that the heart is too small. Look at the word 'state' in this mentality. When you disassemble it, it is the heart. Bigger. If your heart is bigger every day, how can you have a bad mentality? If you want to live, you can’t compare those who live better than you all day long. You have to see that there are many people in this world who are not as good as you. The so-called "I ride a donkey when someone rides a horse is not enough compared to the top, but more than the bottom." You must learn to find comfort for yourself."

"Don't look at people who are better than you? Doesn't that mean everyone is stagnant and will never make progress?" Zhou Tian retorted.

"Young man, this is only a one-sided understanding." Qin Wei straightened his waist: "I told you not to always look at people who are better than you and have a better life than you, but I don't mean to make you give up your efforts. I just tell you You, as long as you work hard, you don’t have to care too much about the result... so what if you fail? Isn’t it just one time, just come back next time.”

"But what if it always fails?"

"Then you have to pay attention to maintaining a good mental balance. Don't do anything bad because of frequent failures." Qin Wei thought for a while, "It seems that there is a person in his 30s who has achieved nothing and made troubles. Later, he even lost his job. What to do? He was very bored, so he went to read a book, and saw that Emperor Kangxi was already the king of a country at the age of 23, and he had made great achievements. So frustrating...but do you know what he did next?"

"How?" Zhou Tian asked curiously.

"He immediately turned the book to the section about Emperor Tongzhi, and found that Emperor Tongzhi had been dead for four years when he was 23 years old. So, he balanced..."

"puff--"

"Funny? It's really funny." Seeing Zhou Tian laughing, Qin Wei squinted his eyes and laughed, "This is the way this world is. Don't think you are so great, because there are always people stronger than you. Don’t think that you are a failure, because there are always people who are more failures than you...Moreover, don’t think that failure is a bad thing, and it might be a good thing from another perspective. Let me give you another example: I have a friend who When he was a child, his father asked him what he wanted in life. He replied that it was money and beautiful women, but his father slapped him twice. He quickly changed his words and said it was career and love, but his father immediately smiled and praised him for saying well. ..."

"Now I understand why so many people are afraid of you literati." Shen Zui and Mao Wanli walked in through the door side by side. "One thing, from another angle, or another way of saying it, Lima has two meanings...I said, Chief Qin, where is your integrity?"

"Integrity? I never talk about that stuff." Qin Wei shook his head with a smile, and motioned for the two to sit down, "And don't think I'm showing off on purpose. Actually, I'm taking my own life Experience teaches you lessons... Do you see that I am living a good life now? But you will never understand, you will never understand what kind of despair I have experienced, and you will never understand. How right I was I have no hope for my future. Do you know? My highest dream ever was to buy a house that can accommodate a bed at the place where I work..."

"Impossible?" Mao Wanli glanced at Shen Zui and Zhou Tian who also had the same surprised expression, "You are a rich man! Kong Xiangxi is known as the richest man in China, and he is nothing compared to you...you can't afford a set house?"

"Do you find it hard to believe?" Qin Wei smiled, "But it is true. This world is like this. One moment you are still running for your life, and the next moment you may have already stood at the top of this world. Even Top...isn't life wonderful because of the many unknowns? Needless to say, when Generalissimo Jiang was young, he probably never imagined that he would become the leader of the country one day?"

"Chief Qin, where... where did you work?" Qin Wei suddenly became a philosopher?Sitting in front of this guy, not only Mao Wanli felt awkward.Even Shen Zui and Zhou Tian, ​​who are more familiar with Qin Wei, are a bit uncomfortable... If you say that Qin Wei has suddenly become a second-guess, they may be more accepting.But unfortunately, as Qin Wei himself said, there are many unknowns in life.They were also unable to mentally prepare for Qin Wei's transformation.Thus, Mao Wanli decisively changed the subject.

"Beijing." Qin Wei shrugged, "I used to live there."

"Impossible." Zhou Tian shook his head suddenly, "According to what you just said, you should have lived in Beiping for quite a while..."

"That's right, it's been a long time." Qin Wei nodded without denying it.

"Then it should be at least four or five years?"

"It's more than that." Qin Wei raised his head and thought for a while, "Counting it into school, it will take seven or eight years."

"That's even more wrong." Zhou Tian frowned, "Seven or eight years ago, I should have been in Beiping, but with your ability and knowledge, Chief Qin, even if there are many universities in Beiping, it is impossible for me to be buried." But why have I never heard of the name Qin Wei?"

"In other words, 'Qin Wei' is a pseudonym?" Shen Zui asked.

"What's Hua? I'm Qin Wei, I'm sure it's fake! That's my name when I came out of my mother's womb." Qin Wei shouted.

"Then why..."

"Why else?" Qin Wei interrupted Mao Wanli's question directly, "You think I don't want to be famous? The key is to offend people."

"Offend?"

"Ah," Qin Wei looked at the pain of reminiscing about the past, "I remember that day when I was talking about literature, the professor came up with a couplet on the spur of the moment: The country prospers, the family prospers, the country prospers. The squad leader got it right: the sky is magnificent, the earth is magnificent, and the heaven and earth are magnificent!"

"This is because it corresponds to the current situation. Otherwise, purely in terms of literature, it can only be regarded as good." Zhou Tian said.

"That's reasonable and insightful." Qin Wei gave her a thumbs up, "Actually, I think so too. Moreover, I also think that I am very right. Although I dare not say anything about the current situation, I can I don’t dare to say grandiose, but at least it’s neat, but that professor is unreasonable. After listening to my second couplet, he threw me out of the classroom and said everywhere that I’m a rotten piece of wood, which made me ashamed Stay in school any longer."

"Who is so hateful?" Shen Zui craned his neck gossipingly.

"This..." Qin Wei hesitated for a moment, "It's not a gentleman's job to speak ill of people behind their backs."

"Gentleman? You?"

"What do you look like?"

"It's nothing." Uncomfortably stared at by Qin Wei, Shen Zui hurriedly shook his head, "I'm just curious, how unsightly is your second line, so that your professor can directly throw you out of the classroom?"

"It's not as serious as you said? I just randomly corrected two sentences that everyone often uses." Qin Wei said.

"Oh? What sentence?" Mao Wanli also asked curiously.

"nmd, tmd, you tmd!"

"..."

……

"Hahaha……"

Qin Wei's triumphant laughter echoed in the White Mansion for two full hours, and during this period, as long as they heard his laughter, Shen Zui and Zhou Tian couldn't help but smile wryly, or it seemed funny, only Mao Wanli... is always like a mourning concubine.In the end, he had no choice but to hide out of the mansion, ran to the gate of Xiangshan Villa, and guarded in the gatehouse with the guards to escape the catastrophe.But very unlucky, when he was hiding in the concierge smoking a cigarette, Zheng Jiemin suddenly drove up, and then the other party saw him, a dignified military colonel, showing the gate of the Bai mansion.Immediately, Zheng Jiemin broke out:

"No reason!"

"Director Zheng, this..."

Seeing Zheng Jiemin's "righteous indignation" appearance, Mao Wanli finally felt a little warmth and a little care from his comrades.But he still felt that he had to explain what happened to the officer. After all, he didn't want to be misunderstood as being afraid of Qin Wei... That kid is just a bastard, not strong enough to drive himself to guard the gate. But he obviously misunderstood Zheng Jiemin:

"Boss Dai sent you here to guard the gate? It's really unreasonable! You have lost the face of the military commander..." (To be continued...)
