Chapter 372 371【Fate】
Ma's house.
Lu Xun was sitting in the living room drinking tea, chatting about some things about himself in Shanghai, and said that the writers of the Shanghai Left League were full of patriotic enthusiasm, and they were some real passionate young people.
After Lu Xun finished speaking, Ma Yuzao said with a smile: "You should come to Peking earlier, it's summer vacation now, otherwise I will definitely invite you to give a speech at Peking University."
"No problem, I'm going to live in Beiping for a long time, and I can talk about the speech after school starts." Lu Xun said with a smile. He took his wife and children to the north this time, mainly to let the old mother hug her grandson, and secretly help form the Northern Leftist League by the way.
Ma Yuzao asked: "You are in Shanghai, have you contacted Cai Zhimin?"
"No contact, but we met twice," Lu Xun asked with a smile, "You still expect him to come back as the principal?"
"Besides him, there is no more suitable candidate for the principal," Ma Yuzao sighed. "To be honest, I, the head of the Chinese Department of Peking University, have not been paid for more than half a year. If the Ministry of Education doesn't care about it, Peking University will sooner or later Close the door and leave."
Lu Xun said: "Your textbooks are well compiled, and the school in Shanghai has a high evaluation."
Ma Yuzao said with a smile: "It's all thanks to Mr. Zhou. He initiated the compilation of general college physics textbooks, and colleagues from Tsinghua University also contributed a lot. Thanks to the money from selling textbooks, and other contributions from Peking University Press. In order to barely maintain the daily teaching of Peking University. The teachers of our Chinese Department, as well as the teachers of chemistry, agronomy and other majors, are also busy compiling university general textbooks. financial pressure."
"That's a very good idea." Lu Xun nodded.
The two chatted all morning, and after lunch, Lu Xun came to Ma Jue's boudoir.
"Hi Mr. Zhou." Ma Jue greeted with a smile.
Lu Xun said with a serious expression: "Ah Jue, students should focus on their studies. You are still young, so don't be obsessed with emotional matters. I have a family. Not only do I have a wife who arranged a marriage, but I also have another wife who bears children for me." Quang Binh, we are determined not to let them down again. You and I can talk about literature and ideas, but we can’t talk about love.”
Ma Jue was a little confused, and then laughed loudly: "Hahahahaha...Mr. Zhou, you misunderstood."
"I know it will embarrass you to refuse directly, but this matter must be made clear." Lu Xun said seriously.
Lu Xun couldn't be insensitive to this, because Xu Guangping was also his student at the beginning, and he only talked about literature at first. But Xu Guangping crazily chased after the teacher, and Lu Xun was able to refuse at first, but they couldn't hold back Xu Guangping's enthusiasm for two or three years, and they finally got together.
Now Ma Jue is also like this, and suddenly wrote him a letter saying that he fell in love with a man with a family, making Lu Xun think that Ma Jue was showing love to him.
To be honest, Lu Xun had a crush on Ma Jue, and he also admired this smart and lovely girl. But he and Ma Yuzao have been good friends for many years, and Xu Guangping gave birth to him a son. Lu Xun still has this bit of self-control, so he rejects Ma Yu's "love" expressed.
Ma Jue explained: "You are really mistaken, I like someone else."
Lu Xun thought the little girl was thin-skinned, so he didn't dare to admit it face to face, so he said along the lines: "No matter who it is, since that man already has a family, then you shouldn't destroy it."
"Yes, yes, I must pay attention." Ma Jue responded quickly.
Lu Xun changed the subject and said, "Let's talk about literature, what articles have you written recently?"
Ma Jue quickly took out the proses and poems he had written recently, handed them to Lu Xun for careful comment and guidance, and made revisions according to his opinions.
On the third day after Lu Xun arrived in Peiping, Ma Yuzao's family also went south by boat. They were going to visit relatives in their hometown in Zhejiang during their summer vacation.
After being educated by Lu Xun, Ma Yu gradually put away the thoughts she shouldn't have, thinking that this secret love was a beautiful mistake. She took her younger sister's hand, carefully boarded the boat behind her parents, and came to the deck with the crowd.
"Mr. Zhou!"
"Mr. Zhou is here!"
"where is it?"
"Below, we are about to board the ship."
"..."
The shouts of several students around her immediately attracted Ma Jue's attention. She couldn't help but look down, and she saw Zhou Hexuan on the pier with his entourage.
They were actually on the same boat, could this be called fate?
Boys and girls always like to think wildly, and Ma Jue's emotions that had just cooled down grew like crazy weeds again.
Ma Yuzao also saw Zhou Hexuan, he was standing on the deck with a suitcase, and immediately went over to shake hands after Zhou Hexuan boarded the ship: "Mingcheng, are you going to the south too?"
"Go to Shanghai and send the foreign students on board," Zhou Hexuan said, smiling at Chen Dexin, Ma Jue, and Ma Yan, "Hello, Mrs. Ma, hello, Xiaojue, and Xiaoyan."
"Hello, Mr. Zhou." The two sisters greeted in unison.
Ma Yuzao said: "There are too many people here, let's go back to the room first."
Everyone returned to the cabin, put away their luggage and then visited.
Ma Yuzao and his wife chatted about the recent situation of Peking University, and sighed about the vacancy of the principal: "The Ministry of Education really doesn't care about Peking University. The principal has been vacant for a year, and they didn't arrange for a new principal to take office."
"It's because the students have gone too far. There is no way to drive the principal away violently." Chen Dexin said.
Zhou Hexuan comforted: "Don't worry, Peking University is the ancestral home of modern Chinese universities, and the Ministry of Education will definitely arrange for the principal. If it doesn't work, after I arrive in Shanghai this time, I will go talk to Mr. Qimin and let him communicate with the Ministry of Education. "
"That's great, thank you Mr. Zhou for your help." Ma Yuzao was overjoyed.
Sisters Ma Jue and Ma Yan sat quietly beside and listened.
Ma Yan has grown a lot taller. At the age of twelve or thirteen, she is quiet and cute, and she will also be a Peking University campus flower in the future.
Ma Jue secretly stared at Zhou Hexuan, and the more he looked at him, the more he felt that this man was handsome, with elegant speech and extraordinary temperament, and the girl's emotions became more and more active. Knowing that it shouldn't be like this, but I just can't restrain my liking, like moths to a flame.
But Zhou Hexuan's two consecutive rejections made Ma Jue afraid to express his love again. As long as nothing happened, just like him silently, listening to him, chatting with him, and maintaining daily correspondence is enough.
The time we spend together is always short, the ship arrived in Shanghai in a blink of an eye, Ma Jue reluctantly waved goodbye, feeling empty in his heart as if he had lost something.
"Sister, you are so strange today." Ma Yan said in a low voice.
Ma Jue asked, "What's so strange?"
Ma Yan said with a smile: "You see Mr. Zhou's eyes are weird. Could it be that he is interested in him?"
"No way, you read it wrong." Ma Jue said in embarrassment.
"You still don't admit it. When you mention Mr. Zhou, your face turns red." Ma Yan teased.
Ma Jue gave his younger sister a white look: "How old are you? You know how to think wildly."
"Hee hee, I'm talking about the central issue," Ma Yan said with a smile, "Well, Mr. Zhou is really outstanding, handsome, and talented, but unfortunately he's already married. Alas, you gave birth to me but I didn't. , I wish I could meet you when you were not married."
"What a mess, I don't bother to talk to you." Ma Jue left after speaking.
