Chapter 2 (Bug Hunting)
Yes, Yi Hanxing knew that he was a person who traveled through a book.
Before traveling through time, Yi Hanxing's hobbies were anime and novels. After traveling through time for so many years, just from what Yi Hanxing remembered, he knew that this world was a combination of at least 4 books.
The reason for plagiarizing official documents during the Republic of China was that I saw an author write many novels similar to those in the original world, and the order of publication and the author's name were the same as the protagonist I was following before I traveled through time.
The story of the abandoned woman's counterattack in the Republic of China is about a sister from her own clan. As expected, she is just a background character in this novel. The ending is just a sentence: she died of complications during childbirth at a young age.
The American struggle article was seen to come over and send the donors and messages to the base exactly the same as the novel.
It's a period novel because the uncles, aunts, grandparents in the 1960s are people he knew in his base. The names overlap so much that Yi Hanxing doesn't hold out hope for coincidence, but the protagonist of this period novel hasn't been born yet.
These are just the novels that Yi Hanxing was following before he traveled through time. Yi Hanxing doesn’t know whether there are more novels included.
It is rather groundless to say that Newton's third law and the theory of relativity may not exist. At least the novel authors that Yi Hanxing follows are not the ones who create their own worldview and physical conclusions. But what Yi Hanxing can be sure of is that historical events should be different. At least some major events that Yi Hanxing himself knows do not match up. So this is already a completely parallel world and cannot be viewed with a prophetic attitude.
But even though he didn't know how history would develop in the future, Yi Hanxing firmly believed that the Workers' and Peasants' Party would be the future winner because this was the inevitable choice of history.
Not to mention other things, Yi Hanxing's family, who traveled through time and space, is considered to have good conditions. At least the brothers in Yi Hanxing's clan can all go to school. Yi Hanxing can also ask his brother to teach him at home, and eat eggs and fish every now and then. It is considered a large family that passes on poetry and literature in the local area.
The reason why Yi Hanxing's cousin could become the protagonist of the abandoned wife story in the Republic of China was that her family had the financial foundation to allow her to be a traditional lady and marry into a family of equal status.
Logically speaking, this condition exceeds that of 80% of the people in China, and Yi Hanxing should not feel dissatisfied. However, as soon as he had the chance, Yi Hanxing followed his revolutionary brother to the base.
I had to run! After much struggle (mainly because my older brother, who was open-minded at the time, helped me fight, and my family did agree that modern women were more popular now), I was able to stop having my feet bound. But a girl who was only ten or eleven years old was considered thirteen in the eyes of her family. They had already started planning to arrange a marriage for Yi Hanxing and marry her off in two years!
This is cruelty to a minor! Yi Hanxing simply cannot accept it.
So, his brother, who had helped him to fight for foot binding and then ran away to make revolution, was sent to the Dabie Mountain base. Taking advantage of his brother's home visit, Yi Hanxing joined his brother and ran to the Workers' and Peasants' Party's base in the Dabie Mountains.
This time, Yi Hanxing was like a fish in water. He dazzled the teachers at the base with his wisdom and talent. He completed primary school in half a year and high school in a year. He was admitted to the postman training class together with middle school and college students and won the first place.
Then, the teachers and leaders who wanted to prevent the child from being delayed sent him to Shanghai to take the middle school entrance exam.
Before coming here, the organization's intelligence department had a task to transfer personnel, and asked the base to cooperate. After much selection, the base finally decided to let Yi Hanxing help complete the personnel transfer. This was also the reason why Yu Fuhui and Shazhou had a dispute.
The waiter, Zhuzi, was also an intelligence agent within the Party. After Sister He suggested that Yi Hanxing read the newspaper, he took the opportunity to confirm Yi Hanxing's identity: "Sister He, you have good taste! Didn't our boss's niece come to Shanghai to take the middle school entrance exam?! Reading the newspaper is a piece of cake for her!"
"Oh my, it's a female student!" Sister He exclaimed. "To get into middle school, you need more than just literacy. I heard from our landlord that you need to be able to speak Western languages, too. That's quite something."
Sister He said with a smile: "Then I must listen carefully to the newspaper read by our female scholar! I wonder if the reading made by this female scholar will sound good."
"Don't tease me like that! My sister's face is turning red because of you!" Zhuzi looked at Yi Hanxing's red face and quickly came to the rescue.
"You're still protecting me! Okay, stop joking. I'm in a hurry to go home and cook. Let's not talk about it now. Come back when you're free." Sister He said and walked away in a hurry.
After seeing Sister He off, Zhuzi, knowing the rules, didn't go in to greet Shazhou and Yu Fu for dinner. Instead, he handed the newspaper to Yi Hanxing: "Take a look. They will definitely let you read it today. Familiarize yourself with the content first. We still have the previous issues here. If you are interested, you can take a look."
After thanking him, Yi Hanxing actually became interested in "The Legend of Manjun". He only knew that the heroine wrote a fan fiction of "Half a Lifelong Romance" based on her memory. This was also the heroine's first semi-original novel, and he had never read the details of it.
After seeing this, Yi Hanxing couldn't help but think that this time traveler was really good at playing with the obviously tragic Half Lifelong Romance and gave her a fan fiction and turned it into a happy story with the heroine.
However, even though the routines were common in the Republic of China at that time, "The Legend of Manjun" was criticized for being too colloquial, it also received a lot of attention.
Yi Hanxing hadn't read online novels for many years and didn't care about the routines or not. Instead, he read it with relish.
Time passed quickly once I was immersed in the novel. Shazhou and Yu Fu quickly discussed the matter and called Yi Hanxing in.
"You probably know the content of the mission. Just follow Comrade Yu Fu's instructions. I'll go back first." Shazhou looked at Yi Hanxing and instructed.
"Don't worry, I promise to complete the task!" Yi Hanxing answered in a low but powerful voice.
"You must also take care of yourself and study hard." Shazhou patted Yi Hanxing's shoulder.
Yi Hanxing nodded and watched with Yu Fu as Shazhou quietly and quickly left through the back door while no one was around.
After Shazhou left, Yu Fu looked at Yi Hanxing and said, "Let's go out first. Business is about to pick up. It's not convenient to talk with so many people coming and going. We can talk when we get back tonight."
Yi Hanxing nodded in understanding: "Brother Zhuzi just agreed to Sister He's request to read the newspaper on my behalf."
Yu Fu didn't say much after hearing this, but nodded slightly to indicate that he understood: "When the time comes, just take a small stool and read under the big tree at our door."
"Aren't we afraid of too many people watching us when we read the newspaper here?" Yi Hanxing tried to hold back but still couldn't help but ask his question.
"We run a grocery store, and we've always been good to our neighbors. Harmony brings wealth. If we don't get along with our neighbors, people will be surprised." Yu Fu pointed out, "Besides, strangers might pass by while I'm reading the newspaper, so it's a bit embarrassing to buy some daily necessities. It's more convenient when there's so much people coming and going."
Yi Hanxing understood immediately that this was because there were many strangers coming to buy things, so even if a stranger occasionally came to pass on the message, it would not attract attention.
With his doubts resolved, Yi Hanxing naturally had nothing more to say. Instead, Yu Fu asked as they walked out, "How are your preparations for the high school entrance exam going?"
When the words fell, Yu Fu and Yi Hanxing had already walked outside.
"Boss Yu, when did you get such a pretty girl? Is she going to take the college entrance exam?" The people shopping outside heard a little bit of what was said and guessed what was going on, then they looked inside through the counter.
"Sister Juhua, you have really sharp ears. We were standing next to each other, and I didn't even hear clearly, but you heard Boss Yu say he was going to take the entrance exam?" Another person asked, "Is he taking the entrance exam for junior high or senior high?"
"To take the high school entrance exam." Yu Fu raised his typical friendly smile and said, "This is my niece from my hometown who came over."
"She's actually taking the high school entrance exam!" They were both surprised. "I didn't expect that, Boss Yu, your family has struck gold! Are you also supporting this girl's education?"
Nowadays, the family conditions of female students are much better than those of male students. After all, who would send a girl to school unless the family is rich?
In other words, these days boys can study to get ahead in life, but most girls study just to get their diplomas as dowries. Therefore, families with limited financial resources would rather pay a dowry of real money than a piece of paper with a diploma.
Therefore, even in a big city like Shanghai, wealthy families will at most let their daughters go to primary school. If they are not blindly following the rules and have good grades and are not too old, they may go to high school, but they may drop out of school at any time because of engagement and marriage.
"Please stop joking around." Yu Fugong bowed his hands and gave a pleading smile: "In our clan, we start reading as soon as we can speak.
I was born dumb and couldn't study, but those who could study are now going out to study. Now that the world is better, some girls who are good at studying are also going out to study. This is all from the money raised by the clan for the land sacrifice, but I can't afford it."
"Your clan is really discerning," Aunt Juhua said, "Female students are very popular these days."
As soon as the words fell, Juhua exchanged a look with the other person. You know what I know: this girl is good-looking and has a diploma. I think she will marry a good family in the future!
"It's because her family loves her." Yu Fu echoed: "They're willing to let her stay a girl for two more years and enjoy her life."
Yi Hanxing knew that Yu Fu was just trying to please the organization (family). Not to mention how much he hoped that he would quickly learn the advanced technology, but for the smart aunts in Shanghai, Yi Hanxing just smiled and tacitly agreed with what Yu Fu said.
Even girls are criticized for not being able to go to middle school. How can Yi Hanxing not hope to quickly establish a country where the people are the masters of the country and women can hold up half the sky!
Even thinking this, Yi Hanxing still greeted the two of them warmly: "Today I will read the newspaper, so you two sisters-in-law must come and listen!"
"Oh, then you have to listen. We will definitely come later!"
"Today, I wonder if Manjun will agree to become the concubine of a rich young master! What a wonderful thing!"
"If you ask me, a concubine is also a junior wife. If there are rules, it's better to agree to it. If the student is lucky, he can become an official's wife!"
The two of them walked away while discussing. Yi Hanxing straightened the newspaper and saw a sentence in the Biography of Manjun: If I want money, I can earn it with my own hands instead of exchanging my dignity.
Seeing this, Yi Hanxing couldn't help but smile knowingly. No matter what, the thoughts of people in the new society will never be assimilated.
Everyone who grows up in the new era knows that all people are created equal and a good life must be created with our own hands.
