The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

Chapter 308 307 [Joe Gang Leader]

"Lingjun, little Lingjun, hurry up and give Dad a laugh!" Zhou Hexuan pushed the cradle to tease his daughter.

"Yeah, yay..."

Xiao Lingjun's watery eyes widened, he looked at his father curiously, waving his little hands and scratching at the air.

Zhang Yunhe said with a smile: "Old Mr. Wang Guowei is worthy of being a university student. The name he chose is really nice, nice and easy to remember." After a few compliments, she tentatively said, "Lingjun is almost full moon, shouldn't it be done? Full Moon Banquet."

In a legal sense, the identity of a concubine is not recognized, not even as a concubine in a feudal society.

Zhou Hexuan's relationship with Meng Xiaodong was only known to a few friends.

Zhang Yunhe proposed to hold a full moon wine for the children, just to entertain the guests and confirm Meng Xiaodong's status as concubine.

Meng Xiaodong naturally understood, but she was also worried about damaging Zhou Hexuan's reputation, so she quickly said: "Just get together with your own family, and invite uncles and uncles, and don't invite others."

"That's fine." Zhang Yunhe felt a little helpless.

Zhou Hexuan had to take into account Zhang Leyi and Meng Xiaodong's feelings at the same time. Zhang Leyi would be unhappy if he invited too many, and he would feel sorry for Meng Xiaodong if he invited too few. He compromised and said, "Let me invite some more good friends."

Zhou Hexuan's so-called friends are naturally those who get closer. Like the big bosses of the Tianjin Youth Gang and the president of the Tianjin General Chamber of Commerce, although these people have a lot of face to invite, they are completely unnecessary. He didn't even bother to invite a few friends from Peking, and it would be a waste of time for others to come.

In fact, we only invited a few colleagues from Ta Kung Pao, such as brothers Hu Zhengzhi, Zhu Xiang, Zheng Zhengyin, Wu Mi and Li Shoumin. Shen Congwen went to Shanghai to become a teacher, there is no other way, this guy is probably writing love letters frantically chasing female students.

On the side of Mr. Yuan Kewen, Zhou Hexuan sent an invitation, but he was in Shanghai, so he didn't have time to eat the full moon wine from Xiao Lingjun.

As for Concubine Dao Wenxiu, in order to avoid the embarrassment of her meeting Wanrong, it is better not to invite her.

A few days later, Zhou Hexuan set up three tables of banquets at home, only Meng Xiaodong's natal family came over 20 or so.

"Brother Mingcheng, congratulations!" Zhu Xiang led his four-year-old daughter into the door. His wife was pregnant with a second child and was about to give birth in a few days.

Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "We are all happy together, and I wish my siblings a big fat boy!"

Immediately afterwards, Li Shoumin came with his younger brother, handed over a gift and said, "Brother Zhou, this painting is for my niece."

Zhou Hexuan unfolded it and saw that it was a plum blossom painted by Li Shoumin himself. He immediately smiled and said, "I have a heart."

What surprised Zhou Hexuan was Zheng Zhengyin, who actually appeared with Shi Jianqiao.

Historically, Zheng Zhengyin used swords, guns and sticks as companions, and was single all his life. In order to avenge her father, Shi Jianqiao married Yan Xishan's intelligence chief. Since her husband didn't care about revenge, she took her children back to Tianjin and separated from her husband.

These two people who are at odds come together because of the butterfly effect brought by Zhou Hexuan.

It's normal to think about it seriously, Zheng Zhengyin is a hot-blooded man, and Shi Jianqiao is a fierce woman, so they can easily see each other in the eye.

Soon, Hu Zhengzhi also brought his wife to the scene, and gave Xiao Lingjun a jade pendant.

Before the official opening, a head-shaving ceremony must be completed.

This belongs to the custom and tradition. The full moon wine is also called shaving wine. On this day, a shaving master will be invited to come to the door to shave off the child's fetal hair. In the old days, the ceremony of shaving the fetus was very grand. Red candles should be lit at home, red cloth should be spread on the table, and tributes should be placed.

Zhou Hexuan didn't pay much attention to these things, but Meng Xiaodong's mother, Zhang Yunhe, paid a lot of money to hire the best shaving master in Tianjin City, who often shaves the heads of dignitaries in the concession.

The hair-shaving master also brought a teenage apprentice over. The apprentice poured white wine into a bowl and carefully used the wine to condition Xiao Lingjun's hair.

Seeing the shaving master raise the knife in his hand, the tuft of hair on the front of Xiao Lingjun's head disappeared, and he was shaved clean in a blink of an eye.

If it is a boy, a bunch of fetal hair should be left on the back of the head or on the top of the head, shaved into a peach shape, called "hundred-year-old hair", which can prevent the child from dying. Girls have to shave their fetal hair, because people think that after shaving their hair, their hair can grow thick and black in the future.

The shaving master put away his razor, and Zhang Yunhe took out a "monk hat" made of red cloth, and personally put it on for his granddaughter, saying that he would be blessed by gods and Buddhas.

Zhou Hexuan thought it was quite interesting, folk customs and traditions, believe it or not, it was totally fun.

The master had to leave after shaving his head, and he couldn't stay at the host's house for dinner, but he had to give him a considerable red envelope, and the tribute on the table had to be taken away by the shaving master.

There is a saying that these tributes are used to enshrine Guan Gong, the ancestor of the barber, who can shave away bad luck while shaving the fetus. Moreover, the arrival of the second master Guan can also suppress evil spirits, so that children will not get sick and die young.

Zhou Hexuan was actually very puzzled, would the patriarch of the hair shaving craftsman be Guan Erye?

Guan Erye is quite good at shaving his head, but the head he shaved off can't grow back.

"Thank you for coming to drink my daughter's full moon wine today, I will do it first!" Zhou Hexuan stood up and raised his glass and shouted.

That night, Zhou Hexuan drank a lot.

Especially Zheng Zhengyin, this gentleman usually doesn't talk much, and after drinking, he is extremely verbose, so he insists on catching Zhou Hexuan and punching him.

By the end of the banquet, Zhou Hexuan was already dizzy from drunk.

Meng Xiaodong's natal family went to the hotel, including her mother Zhang Yunhe. The daughter has already finished confinement, so it's not good for her to stay at Zhou's house as a mother, otherwise Zhang Leyi will definitely not be happy.

As for Zhou Hexuan's friends, Zhang Leyi and Meng Xiaodong personally sent them out of the gate one by one, and called rickshaws for them.

Wanrong and Liao Yaquan were in charge of directing the servants, helping Zhou Hexuan back to the bedroom to rest.

"Sister Wanrong, let me guard." Liao Yaquan said, wringing out the hot towel himself.

Wanrong said: "Then I'll ask Xiaolan to make some hangover soup."

After Wanrong left, Liao Yaquan dismissed the maid next to him, patted Zhou Hexuan's face and said, "Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou, can you hear me?"

"Hmm, um..." Zhou Hexuan closed his eyes and muttered twice.

Liao Yaquan probed again: "Brother Zhou, who am I?"

"Who are you?" Zhou Hexuan asked subconsciously.

Liao Yaquan spelled the letters and asked, "What does the combination of i-p-h-o-n-e mean?"

"What?" Zhou Hexuan asked unconsciously.

"i-p-h-o-n-e!" Liao Yaquan repeated again.

Zhou Hexuan said in a daze, "Oh, you said iPhone."

"So the English word reads iphone," Liao Yaquan said to himself, and then asked, "What kind of organization is iphone? What does it have to do with Apple in California?"

Zhou Hexuan muttered, "Apple? The head of Apple is Steve Jobs, and California is the global headquarters."

Liao Yaquan excitedly asked: "What's Jobs' full name?"

"Steve Jobs, we all call him Master Joe... Master, Hululu..." Zhou Hexuan fell into a deep sleep as he spoke.

Liao Yaquan shook vigorously a few times, but Zhou Hexuan was not woken up. Even so, it was enough for her to be ecstatic that her dormant work had a huge breakthrough.

She knew how to spell the iphone, knew that the headquarters of the organization was in California, USA, and knew that the leader of the organization was Steve Jobs, and another person called him "Joe Gangzhu".

Wanrong soon came back with hangover soup, Liao Yaquan said: "Brother Zhou has fallen asleep, let him have a good rest."

"Don't catch a cold." Wanrong helped Zhou Hexuan put on a thin blanket.

When the two women went out chatting and laughing, Zhou Hexuan in "Drunk Sleep" suddenly opened his eyes, and he yawned and said, "Damn, I almost got drunk. The information revealed this time should be enough for the Japanese to digest for a while." .Liao Yaquan really saw my mobile phone, what official name should I give the Apple organization? Apple, Apple, Garden of Eden are good. Hehe, you can also include the Freemasons. Don’t the Freemasons claim to be the descendants of Cain? Cain is the son of Adam and Eve, and it can be related to the Apple and the Garden of Eden. Damn, it's a good story!"
