Chapter 1984

How many people hate themselves, Mr. Truman is well aware.

But he is not afraid.

This is an inevitable process and result.

The evolution of the Federation's social system several times has been accompanied by great hatred!
Because of these changes, it will inevitably hurt vested interest groups in the current federal system.

The current major educational reforms are, in fact, no reforms at all.

Elite education is still concentrated in private schools, and students in public schools are still eating, drinking and having fun.

Education has been reformed, but has it really been reformed?
The public still cannot enjoy those real educations, and the so-called "talents" are just tool people to work better for the middle and upper classes!
Social security reform is a huge trouble. It seems that the current policy has solved some problems, but at the same time there are huge drawbacks.

Once the power of capital overwhelms the power of politics, the greed of capitalists will turn reform into a "carnival".

Those restrictive policies aimed at capital and capitalists do not know when they will be implemented.

Sometimes Mr. Truman is also afraid. He is afraid that these capitalists in the future will not only overthrow the current policy, but also make everything worse!
He has already stood on the opposite side of the vast majority of capitalists. What he said, Lynch said "some people", is not just as simple as "some".

Mr. Truman smiled and took another drag on his cigarette. "You can't just do nothing because you are afraid. Someone has to do something."

"History is like this. It takes a long time for us to find out whether the previous people did the right thing."

"Theories need experiments to demonstrate, and so does history!"

At this time, Mr. Truman seemed to be covered with a layer of brilliance. In fact, both he and Lynch knew it.

Some things are definitely right, but whether they can be done is another question.

He is braver than others!
Mr. Truman doesn't have that much time, especially now that the countdown to the end of the war has begun.

There are ambassadors from all over the world going to the federation to discuss a series of follow-up issues with the federal government.

The end of the war, the restoration of world trade, how to divide the market, and how to pay the protection fee must have a charter.

Therefore, Mr. Truman's time is particularly tight, and he has to deal with many more things every day than before.

Lynch spent a little time with him here and then left, getting what he wanted and moving on to the next agenda item.

After nine o'clock in the evening, he finished his day's work and returned to the living area of ​​the presidential palace.

The weather has warmed up, the windows of the room have been opened, and the gentle breeze blows into the room, calming the restlessness in the heart.

Joanna came back very late, because the war was about to end, some social donations, and various charitable activities increased.

The former president's wife can stand for her, and she has to stand for others when necessary. Although her background is not particularly prominent, she is still the first lady after all.

This title must be worth at least 50 in the federation!
Joanna, who came back from the outside, carried a strong smell of alcohol in the wind when she walked. Mr. Truman put down the materials in his hand and looked at his wife with some dissatisfaction.

He didn't object to her socializing outside, he knew very well that it was necessary, because if he didn't socialize himself, if he didn't let his wife socialize, people outside wouldn't know what they would think of him.

People who are unwilling to contact capital do not exist in this world. This is also a truth that has become clearer in his mind recently, a truth!
Maybe he won the election successfully, not just because Lynch helped him behind the scenes.

What's more, he showed an attitude of not rejecting capital!

Lynch is one of the representatives of capital, what he rejects are capitalists who do not agree with him, not capitalism!
This is very critical!

So Joanna's socializing outside, Madam's route, can also be seen as a compromise.

But he didn't like her drinking so much, the strong smell of alcohol, at least a few glasses.

"You're drinking.", he looked at Joanna, "We talked about that last time."

In fact, not just last time, but several times ago.

Joanna was perfunctory while taking off her clothes, "There are many important people this time, as well as those noble wives."

"They donated a lot of money, I can't even give them a chance to have a drink, can I?"

That being said, if she really doesn't want to drink, or keeps a temperance, who can force her?
After all, he still didn't take this matter to heart.

During this period of time, she has become more and more adapted to the current life, entertaining, socializing, making money, and spending money!
She experienced unprecedented happiness!
Let her change these?

She has had a hard time doing it!

Mr. Truman was still a little angry, "I didn't tell you not to drink, but you have to drink less."

"The prohibition order is still being enforced, but you are running around reeking of alcohol, what will others think and think?"

Joanna, who was already naked, glanced at him, and responded perfunctorily, "I will definitely pay attention next time."

As for whether you will really pay attention to it, that is another matter.

Just such a glance of her turning around made Mr. Truman feel that something was wrong.

She trimmed her fur.

At this time, federal women are undergoing a process of psychological transformation, from passively accepting the world to being active.

The beauty and makeup industry has begun to flourish, and female body shaping has become a new bodybuilding project. Various consumer concepts and cultures surrounding women are developing rapidly.

Trimming body hair has also become a very fashionable choice today...

Especially among young girls, trimming body hair has become a fashion.

Can……

Building such a place seems unnecessary for two people who haven't had sex for a while, right?

Joanna didn't notice the change in her husband's expression, and then walked into the bathroom.

Mr. Truman thought for a while, and finally decided not to ask.

Lynch had told him Joanna was fine.

Moreover, he also arranged for people from the safety committee to monitor Joanna in the name of protection, but did not find any accidents.

Apart from her weekly checkups, nothing unusual was found.

Mr. Truman knows this better than anyone else.

A friend of theirs had cancer, so she was terrified, and even she and Lynch's mother, Sierra, knew each other.

Sera had undergone a resection operation, and the breast and uterus had been removed, completely eliminating the possibility of cancer, which made Joanna very envious.

But she didn't have the guts to do that, she was a little scared.

The psychiatrist also responded supportively to her weekly check-ups.

Self-examination of the body will not cause additional burden or harm to the body, and it can also reduce the anxiety in the heart and make the mood easier. Why refuse?

It’s not an ordinary family, and they can’t afford the checkup, which is much cheaper than buying placebos and other psychiatric medical services, and the psychiatrist also recommends business as usual.

It's just that their current relationship is a little delicate. He doesn't know why he feels this way, but he can feel it.

Some frailties, in fact, were frail before, but now they are more frail.

When Joanna finished washing, changed into her pajamas and lay on the bed, Mr. Truman asked about the operation of her foundation.

"The war is coming to an end, and a large number of soldiers will retire soon. By then, your work may be very busy."

Joanna "hmm" for a while, without further expression, Mr. Truman thought about it, and stopped talking about this issue.

"Go to bed early, good night."

Joanna turned off the bedside lamp on her side, "Go to bed early too, good night."

The two are like roommates sleeping in the same bed, even a little stranger.

On the other side, Lynch and Sierra had dinner together in the evening.

Sierra is in a good state of mind now. In fact, rich people are in a good state of mind.

Her hobbies are still so "harmonious".

Reading, exercising, running, and now learning the piano.

In her own words, if a person's life is not trying to master a musical instrument, it must be incomplete!

She was completely different from Nell, from everyone else.

After experiencing sudden wealth, her whole body has been sublimated, she is more like a noble lady than any noble lady, and she has more pursuits.

"Recently I'm learning to listen to opera, and I've always found it a very difficult thing."

"You know, they recommended an opera to me and gave me a set of scripts, the thick ones!"

"I have to read the script or the story first, and only after I have a deep understanding can I understand what the opera is about!"

"I finally understand why many people only talk about their favorite operas when they talk about operas."

She smiled slightly, "Because the others may not know what they are singing!"

Lynch found it very interesting, "Besides listening to opera and practicing the piano, do you have any new hobbies?"

Sierra nodded. She didn't mind sharing her life and happiness. "I bought a horse, a two-year-old horse, and I ride it every week."

"It was scary at first, but now I'm used to it, and I like the process of riding a horse and running on the grass."

Lynch didn't grasp this. He didn't expect Sera's hobbies to become so extensive.

This may have something to do with the fact that Gefla's nobles fled to the Federation together.

The life of the ladies of the nobles is so "monotonous" and "boring", but for the ladies of the Federation, it is another kind of freshness.

The expansion of the social circle has also brought more activities and hobbies with Gefra culture characteristics. If Serra might not have gone to the opera in the past, it would be too much trouble!

Speaking of this, Sera suddenly seemed to think of something, "You and Joanna know each other, right?"

Lynch nodded. Joanna said more than once in public that Lynch was a frequent visitor to their family dinners and had an unusual relationship with the president's family.

Sera hesitated for a while before saying, "I heard that she has recently become obsessed with playing cards, and she plays very big."
