Yanei of Rebirth

Chapter 25 On Seeking Truth From Facts

Since he was punished, the father who was ranked last among the deputy directors became more relaxed.

Mr. Zhou advised him to take this opportunity to read more books to enrich his theoretical knowledge.Although my father graduated from a middle school, his education level is not low.But what I learned was mainly technical knowledge, and my foundation in political theory was weaker.As an administrative cadre, the theoretical basis is very important.

Dad has always listened to what Mr. Zhou said.

So Mr. Zhou gave him a stack of tomes, such as "Das Kapital", "Political Economy", "Dialectical Materialism and Historical Materialism", "History of the Development of the World Industrial Class Movement", and so on.

Dad stared blankly, shook his head and smiled wryly. [

In the blink of an eye, it was October, and I had already learned the entire book of "Hamlet".To be honest, the little knowledge of English in my previous life, which helped me a little at the beginning, didn't work at all after ten days.It's like starting from scratch, and even I myself didn't expect such rapid progress.I originally estimated that it would take at least two years to barely finish "Hamlet", but I didn't expect it to take only one year.Especially speaking, if it is not too shocking, all daily conversations can be conducted in English.

"Learning English should start from a baby."

Ha ha, this seems to make sense.

I was secretly complacent, and accidentally, Mr. took out another English book thicker than "Hamlet" and stuffed it into my hand.

mygo!

It was Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.

I was dizzy for a while.

Unexpectedly, the matter is far from over, and the book that Mr. will move out next is a veritable tome-the original Russian version of "War and Peace".

"Uncle, I...my Russian level is not as good as English...this...this "War and Peace" is nothing...too...too esoteric, right?"

I stammered and pleaded.

Mr. Zhou showed a narrow smile.

"It is because of your poor level of Russian that you are given extra weight. This is called whipping a fast cow!"

God!Is there such an unfortunate traveler as me in this world?

I'm completely dizzy!

"Xiaojun, tell your father to make an appointment with Yucheng to see when they have time to come to Uncle's place. Uncle has something to discuss with them."

"Ah... oh oh, okay."

I was so depressed that I almost didn't hear what Mr. said.

"This is an article I wrote, you two have a look, is it suitable?"

Mr. Zhou took out a few pages of manuscript paper and gently handed them to Yan Yucheng. [

It was the afternoon of the next day. Yan Yucheng got a call from his father and rushed over the next day.Mr. Zhou has never actively invited them to discuss matters before, so being so cautious this time must be a big deal.

I craned my neck to take a look, and saw that "On Seeking Truth from Facts" was written on the manuscript paper, which was exactly Mr.'s beautiful thin gold script.

Why did you suddenly write a review article?

I scratched my head, a little puzzled.

Dad leaned over and watched with Yan Yucheng.

Yan Yucheng and his father nodded while watching, and looked at each other from time to time, showing admiration.To be honest, although I have lived in two lifetimes, I still don't know much about this purely theoretical article.Peeking from the side, I just feel that the font is beautiful, the diction is smooth, but I don't quite understand what the content is.Yan Yucheng and his father are so appreciative, they must have done a great job.

The article is neither long nor short, with a total of seven pages and about two thousand words.

When Yan Yucheng turned to the last page, he couldn't help being startled. Together with his father, he looked up at his husband, very puzzled.

But it turned out that the signatures on the signature were the names of Yan Yucheng and Liu Jincai.

"Teacher, you are..."

"It's been three months since you were punished, right? Jincai has basically stepped aside during this time."

Mr. Zhou said slowly.

Yan Yucheng couldn't help smiling bitterly.Dad stood aside, why didn't he?From the top leader of the commune to the seventh leader of the district, the people who were too busy to keep their feet on the ground suddenly became the hands-free shopkeeper who did everything. The loneliness and helplessness in my heart can be imagined.

"During this period of time, I read newspapers every day. "People's Daily" and "N Province Daily" are must-reads. Through observation during this period, I think the direction of the wind may be changing..."

Mr. Zhou continued to speak in a calm and steady tone.

Yan Yucheng and his father were very excited.

"Teacher, tell us, how will the wind direction change?"

What he asked was "how will the wind direction change" rather than "will the wind direction really change", which shows that Yan Yucheng is still full of confidence in his teacher.

"The elder is back to work."

Both Yan Yucheng and his father nodded.They know this.

On July [-], [-], the Third Plenary Session of the Tenth Central Committee of the Party passed a resolution deciding to restore a certain party veteran to an important position in the Central Committee.

Such a big event was reported in the newspapers. [

"He is against the current theoretical approach."

"Well, we know that."

Yan Yucheng's excited expression faded a bit.

"The letters written by this veteran to the Party Central Committee on October [-] last year and April [-] this year have been printed and distributed to the county and regiment-level units."

"That's different."

Mr. Zhou said firmly.

Yan Yucheng was a little excited again: "What's the difference?"

"When I wrote these two letters, he had not yet resumed his duties. Now that he has resumed his duties, this is very telling. Looking at the newspapers recently, there seems to be some different voices. Although it is not mainstream yet, it is a change after all. .”

I nodded secretly.

After all, Mr. Zhou is a theoretical worker engaged in the study of party history, and he is very keen in this regard.We must know that the commentator articles of party newspapers are sometimes tantamount to political weathervanes.

"So I wrote this article in the name of the two of you."

Dad asked: "Mr. Zhou, why do you want to use our name?"

Yan Yucheng glared at his father, blaming him for not asking.

Mr. Zhou is a "reactionary academic authority" who hasn't taken off his hat. Isn't writing such an article asking for trouble?

Mr. Zhou smiled: "If you think it is feasible, I will send it out."

Yan Yucheng and his father looked at each other, unable to make a decision for a while.

I stood up and said, "Uncle Zhou, which newspaper do you want to submit to? I'll help you post it."

"Xiaojun!"

Dad sternly stopped.

The two adults haven't made up their minds yet, and my little brat is here to make trouble again.

In fact, I have long wanted to write something.However, due to lack of theoretical knowledge, he dared not start writing for fear of being ridiculed.Furthermore, I feel that this time is a bit inconvenient.

In my memory, it seemed that the People's Daily would not publish that famous commentator's article "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth" until the second half of [-].

At this time, if you force yourself to stand out, you really don't know what the consequences will be.

Dad accidentally turned into an official career. This kind of small change is nothing more than a small change. After all, it is a very partial matter and the impact will not be great.And the "discussion on the standard of truth" is a super major event that will affect the direction of China's history in the next few decades. If I, an inexplicable traveler who is a grassroots child in the past life and a hairy child in this life, triggers it in advance, I would be a little terrified to think about it.

In essence, I am the kind of cautious civilian character.

Now Mr. Zhou believes that the time is ripe, and I believe in his vision.

"Mr. Zhou, should we wait and see?"

Dad said hesitantly.

"why?"

Mr. Zhou asked back calmly.

"This...isn't it safer when the situation becomes clearer?"

Mr. Zhou nodded, turned to Yan Yucheng, his tone was still light: "Yucheng, what's your opinion?"

Yan Yucheng murmured, and said carefully: "I think it's okay to wait..."

"Well, that's fine. I'm just helping you make suggestions, and you have to make up your own ideas."

Mr. Zhou was calm as usual, but there was a clear look of disappointment in his eyes.

I lifted the teapot, refilled each of their bowls with some tea, and said, "Uncle Zhou, I read "The History of the Five Dynasties" today and saw the story of Li Cunxu... After the Jiahe War, the Later Tang Dynasty clearly had the upper hand. Great, why did Zhuang Zong take the risk of riding a light cavalry to attack the girder?"

I always like to talk about Li Cunxu, but it's not that I have a particular preference for him.But this person does have a lot to learn from.

"When it was in its prime, the heroes of the world would not compete with them; when it was in decline, dozens of actors were trapped, and their lives and countries were destroyed, making the world laugh."

This is Ouyang Xiu's summary of Li Cunxu.

An emperor who would face the enemy in person in every battle, an emperor who was almost invincible in every battle, an emperor who was lucky and died when the enemy's ideas were wrong, could there be no story to tell?

"Wealth and wealth are in danger."

Mr. Zhou smiled faintly, and glanced at Director Yan and his father.

"Everything should be done only when you are very sure. Good things belong to others."

The faces of the two directors suddenly turned red, they are really cute!

But Mr. Zhou still didn't want to finish it. He patted my head and said with a smile: "If you can apply what you have learned, you really can teach me."

I only have a wry smile in my heart.That is to say, if Uncle Yan and Dad were to be replaced by others, this would cause hatred.Even if you are young and can't afford to hate, at least it is not a good thing.After all, my mental age is 40 years old. This can deceive others, but not myself.

You have to keep a low profile in the future.

Xu Shi was ridiculed by the old and young master and apprentice, but Director Yan was dissatisfied and couldn't help asking: "Teacher, do newspapers dare to publish this article?"

Mr. Zhou narrowed his eyes, and said slowly: "If there is a newspaper that dares to publish, I have to try. I have an old colleague who is now an editor for a provincial newspaper, and he is not afraid of getting into trouble..."
