Beiyang Xiaoxiong

Chapter 325 The Sorrow of the Nation

Zhao Dongyun looked at this younger brother. Although this younger brother is only one year younger than himself, he looks much younger than himself, as if he is only 223 years old, and has been studying on campus, making him look a little immature.

Looking at Zhao Dongquan with a young face, Zhao Dongyun said, "What did your mother say?"

In fact, Zhao Dongquan is not very similar to Zhao Dongyun. Zhao Dongyun is a bald, medium figure, strong in appearance, with a Chinese character face, and an upturned beard. It is not tough, but it gives people a very capable feeling. When Yuan Shikai first saw Zhao Dongyun, he gave him such a comment: very Spiritual young man!

With the increase of power and age, he looks more and more old, especially the eight-character beard on both sides makes him the most typical image of Beiyang soldiers in this era.

Of course, not everyone thinks that Zhao Dongyun's image is positive. At least the media in the Southern Federation often call Zhao Dongyun 'Zhao Guangtou'.

However, Zhao Dong is completely different from Zhao Dongyun. Although he is 28 years old, he is still as young as a 20-year-old man, with no beard. At this time, his expression is also slightly restrained.

The brother in front of him has been completely different from his influential brother. Although he knew that his brother had become a prominent figure in China, the founder of the domestic republic and the president of the Republic, he really saw his brother and found that there was a gap between the facts than he thought. It's bigger.

At this moment, he seemed a little restrained: "I just came back from Tianjin yesterday, and my mother didn't agree!"

"It's reasonable for her to disagree. You should have expected such a thing when you brought that woman back to China!" Zhao Dongyun shook his head: "Do you think your mother will gladly accept you to marry a foreign woman?"

Zhao Dongquan returned to China this year, but it was not one person, but two people. He came back with his wife. To be precise, he was a Japanese wife.

Although the Zhao family said that the family tradition was enlightened, Zhao's mother was able to make her eldest son Zhao Dongyun give up the traditional road of fame and turn to Tianjin Wubei School after the First Sino-Japanese War. Although Zhao's mother also supported Zhao Dongyun to study in Germany, she later sent Zhao Dongquan, the second son, to Japan to study abroad. This can be regarded as very enlightened for contemporary domestic families, but no matter how enlightened it is, especially for the marriage of the Zhao Dongyun brothers, Zhao's mother can be said to be very resentful.

At first, it was Zhao Dongyun who married Fang Ruolian, a small family, and Fang Ruolian was still a Catholic. After marriage, she had always opposed Zhao Dongyun's concubine and insisted on monogamy, which made Zhao's mother almost angry. Anyway, as long as Zhao Dongyun likes her, she doesn't care, but this party Ruolian even objected to Zhao Dongyun's concubine. What's more hateful is that she hasn't had a swollen stomach for many years of marriage, which made Mrs. Zhao angry. However, as her son's identity gradually changed, she also knew that the external environment no longer allowed Fang Ruolian to give her a leave letter. In addition, Fang Ruolian finally ended at the end of last year after many years. After being pregnant and giving birth to a son in August this year, Mrs. Zhao, who had a grandson, slowly accepted Fang Ruolian.

Mrs. Zhao was not satisfied with Ruolian. However, this Zhao Dongquan was even more outrageous. He actually brought an oriental woman home and said that they had already held a wedding in Japan. On the spot, Mrs. Zhao said that there was no matchmaker to count the marriage and asked Zhao Dongquan married another.

Zhao Dongyun does not intend to blame anything about his brother's behavior. They are all adults, but although Zhao Dongyun is possessed by his soul, to be honest, he does not have much feelings for his family in time and space, but he always needs to make a filial gesture, so many times in the eyes of the outside world, he Zhao Dongyun is a filial son in other aspects except that he rarely goes home.

And it is understandable that ordinary people can't go home all year round. These days, Zhao Dongyun is not the only eun. It is normal for officials not to return to their hometown for several years or even decades after they go to office. They go home either because of Ding You or because of their officials.

So on the surface, he still has to say a few words about Zhao Dongquan to defend Mrs. Zhao's idea!

"During this period, you should run to Tianjin more often, and your mother will always figured it out later! Don't bring your sister-in-law to Tianjin first, just live in Beijing. I'll let your sister-in-law help you arrange it later!"

"I know!" Zhao Dongquan nodded and agreed.

Zhao Dongyun said again, "Let's not talk about these family affairs. Now that you have returned to China, is your studies going well?"

Hearing Zhao Dongyun ask about his studies, Zhao Dongquan said, "Everything is going well. I have successfully completed my degree certificate!"

Zhao Dongyun nodded: "That's good, otherwise after studying for many years, this talented master will need to be used. What do you plan to do in the future?"

Zhao Dongquan heard Zhao Dongyun's question. Although he had expected this day to come, he was still a little worried. He looked up at Zhao Dongyun's expression and then said, "I'm thinking about it and see if I can apply for a job at Fengtian University or Beijing Normal University!"

After hearing this, Zhao Dongyun frowned undisguisedly: "Are you going to engage in education?"

Zhao Dongquan said, "The politics and economy I have learned is a shortcoming in China. Whether it is Fengtian University or Beijing Normal University, there is a lack of professors in this kind of major, so I think..."

Unexpectedly, he didn't say anything, but Zhao Dongyun planned to say: "Which aspect of domestic education is not a shortcoming now? And there are so many returned international students in China, and there is no shortage of you to engage in education!"

Zhao Dongquan immediately did not care about being formal and immediately retorted: "I have been traveling to school for many years. The biggest feeling is that their education is strong, and China's education level is low. If we can follow Japan's experience and attach importance to education, in ten or 20 years, China will definitely be full of talents and rebuilding China. Wait!"

"So you are going to be a teacher?" Zhao Dongyun didn't expect that his brother would have this idea after returning to China, which was completely different from what he expected.

Although he has no family feelings for the younger brother in front of him, others don't know that his soul is a descendant, so this younger brother is still one of the people he can rely on in his time and space. Otherwise, why did he send him to Japan to study abroad?

You should know that Zhao Dongyun wanted to send his brother to Japan and then be admitted to the army. If it goes well, he will have a direct brother in the military as a help, but Zhao Dongquan did not pass the exam and did not want to return to China to study in the domestic military rank. Instead, he was admitted to Waseda University, otherwise Zhao Dongyun would not have transferred the training goal to Zhao Dongzhi.

Zhao Dongquan did not join the army and went to study politics and economics, so Zhao Dongyun will forget about it. At worst, he will let him enter the Fuyuan Company of the family enterprise to help or simply enter the government to help. Well, not to mention Zhao Dongquan's personal relationship, just a regular college graduate is worthy of Zhao Dongyun's solicitation.

In contemporary China, there are so many students studying in Japan, but in fact, 90 percent of them have graduated from all kinds of messy middle schools and language studies. Well, just like Jiang Zhiqing. In fact, there are not many people who have graduated from real Lu Shi or other regular universities, especially few people who have graduated from several imperial universities.

Even if Zhao Dongquan doesn't have a Jing identity, his talent is enough to attract other warlords. It is very easy to go into politics, but Zhao Dongquan is going to be a teacher? This made Zhao Dongyun a little incomprehensible.

"Even if you want to engage in education, you can work in the Ministry of Education, so that you can better develop domestic education!" Zhao Dongyun tried to persuade this brother.

However, although Zhao Dongquan looks young, he is stubborn enough, otherwise he will still marry the Japanese woman without the objection of the whole family.

"If we all go back to politics, who else will pass on what we have learned to domestic students?" Zhao Dongquan took a deep breath: "The greatest sadness of our nation is not that our guns are not sharp enough, but that the most outstanding group of people go to politics as officials."

After listening to this, Zhao Dongyun's face turned black in an instant. He could clearly hear the irony and accusations in his words. To be honest, if others spoke like this in front of him, even if he put up with it in front of him, he would definitely not be able to bear it behind his back. However, the man in front of him is his younger brother.

After taking a deep breath, Zhao Dongyun said, "Since you have ideals, I won't say more!"

After waving Zhao Dongquan out, Zhao Dongyun was in a bad mood. He got up and walked out. At this time, the reception outside was almost over, and the guests had begun to leave gradually. Zhao Dongyun was not interested in going out again, but went straight back.

When I walked through the long corridor and entered the flower hall of the back house, I happened to see a woman in a long dress walking out quickly. Maybe she was in a hurry to look out of the door. When they turned around, they bumped into each other.

Although the person left in a hurry, Zhao Dongyun was also the one who was hit, but Zhao Dongyun's body was strong and naturally nothing happened, but his body shook slightly, but the young woman who hit him was directly hit and fell down.

Zhao Dongyun took a step back, then bent down to help her up and asked, "Are you all right, Miss?"

The woman let out a 'ouch', and then looked up at the person she bumped into. The pain on her face quickly turned into panic after seeing that it was Zhao Dongyun: "I'm sorry, President, I didn't mean to. I was just in a hurry just now!"

Zhao Dongyun looked up at himself. Zhao Dongyun recognized that it was Yu Wanling, the female translator who often followed Fang Ruolian. It's just that Yu Wanling at this time is different from what he usually sees.

At this time, Yu Wanling's face was full of various expressions, with pain, panic and worry. Maybe it was painful to fall, or panicked. Her big eyes slid down a few drops of tears in the blink of an eye, like a lotus devastated by the storm. Although tears like rain made her makeup, they showed a different beauty, which made people feel pity for them.
