Save the Bachelor of Heaven

  Chapter 2713 2716 [The proud cat is as fierce as a tiger]

Compared with the desolation of the Jin family, when Xiangnan took Bai Xiuzhu back home in the third year of junior high school, he saw a long queue at the gate of the Bai family, all of whom came to pay New Year's greetings and give gifts, almost blocking the alley in front of the Bai family up.

   "Look, my brother is still the best." Seeing this, Bai Xiuzhu said proudly.

  Xiang Nan saw her say that, and immediately sent a polite yet awkward smile.

  Actually, after Bai Xiongqi became prime minister, Bai Xiuzhu inevitably felt a little arrogant.

  Especially after Jin Quan went to the field, the third son of the Jin family was fired, and finally Bai Xiongqi was reinstated as an official, she was even a little crazy.

   Fortunately, Xiang Nan is more promising than Jin Yanxi, a well-known scholar in the country, good-looking, talented, and wealthy, not much inferior to her prime minister's sister.

  That's why Bai Xiuzhu didn't raise her tail to the sky. Otherwise, Jin Yanxi would be disgusted by Bai Xiuzhu even if the two got married.

   "Yanxi, resign your teaching position, come and help me." Bai Xiongqi smiled and said to Xiang Nan, "With your talent, it's a pity to be a professor."

   "Thank you for the praise, brother. But I don't have any ambitions, and I am satisfied with being a good teacher." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

   "Then you and your sister move back to live. The house here has always been reserved." Bai Xiongqi said again.

   "Thank you, brother, but our house is empty." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "If you miss Xiuzhu, I'll bring her back later."

  He is the son of the Jin family, not the son-in-law of the Bai family. Why did he go to live in the Bai family. Bai Xiongqi really looked at the Jin family's downfall, actually bullying people to this extent.

   "Brother, I live well in Jin's house, so I won't move back and forth." Bai Xiuzhu also spoke to Xiang Nan after hearing what her brother said.

  Although she is a bit arrogant now, she still loves Xiang Nande after all. Naturally, she knew the difference between living in Jin's house and Bai's house, so she didn't want to make things difficult for Xiang Nan.

   "That's all." Seeing that his sister said so, Bai Xiongqi could only nod his head.

  …

  In 2025, Xiang Nan still focuses on teaching and writing.

  The serialization of "Peerless Twins" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been completed, Xiang Nan is now starting to serialize "Wulin Outer History" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" (the story is adapted from "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3").

  After the two novels were released, they were naturally still very popular.

   On the one hand, his writing techniques are up to date. Today's vernacular has only been developed for a few years, and the techniques are not proficient. In contrast, when Xiang Nan started writing online articles, the vernacular had already been developed for hundreds of years and had already become very mature.

  Many common techniques were a great innovation in the Republic of China. For example, the image of the protagonist is both good and evil, which is not new to modern people at all, but the protagonists of novels during the Republic of China are definitely based on positive images.

  For example, the psychological description of characters is now very common. But at that time, there were few psychological descriptions of the characters, and they could only be portrayed sideways through words, actions, and expressions.

   On the one hand, Xiang Nan's story is also the latest. Most of the stories in the period of the Republic of China are relatively traditional, especially popular novels, which are basically about wit and beauty, love and hatred.

  Xiang Nan's story has been greatly innovated, integrating many elements such as martial arts, detectives, love, history, war, etc., with rich themes and novel stories, which are naturally very popular.

   Therefore, Xiang Nan's remuneration for the manuscript at this time has also risen to ten yuan per thousand characters, which was considered the highest level at that time. 12,000 words a day, 3,600 oceans a month, definitely considered a high income.

  …

  In terms of teaching, Xiang Nan still teaches step by step.

  But usually, I like to mingle with my classmates. Like playing basketball together.

  He also has martial arts, and has inherited Liu Wenqin's basketball skills, making him invincible in basketball.

   Therefore, every time it is played, it can attract a large number of students to stop.

  And his approachable approach also won him the love of his classmates.

  In addition, Xiang Nan also released a new song after school started at the beginning of the year - "One Cut Plum".

   "True love is like a plum blossom

  The cold and snow cannot be submerged

  Bloom on the coldest branch

  I see spring coming towards you and me

  …

  Snowflakes are fluttering, the north wind is blowing

  The world is boundless

  A cut plum blossom standing proudly in the snow

  Only for Yi Ren’s fragrance”

  Because the melody is beautiful and the lyrics are moving, especially the line in the song "a cold plum blossom stands proudly in the snow, and it blooms on the coldest branch", which is even more meaningful. So very popular with young people.

   Moreover, not only the revolutionary youth like it, but even ordinary listeners like it. It is melodious and sweet, full of emotion, and really beautiful, so it spread quickly.

   This also allowed Xiang Nan's popularity to continue.

What is especially rare is that in March, Hujiang EMI Records bought half of the copyright of "Yijianmei" at a price of 100 yuan, and then invited Cai Ling, a popular singer in Hujiang at that time, to record the record and play it on the then China Radio Corporation .

   Once it was broadcast, it quickly caused a sensation, forming a scene where everyone in the Hujiang River sang "Yijianmei", making Xiang Nan's name known to more and more people.

  …

  In April, Xiang Nan created a new drama "Sunrise" for Peking University Drama Club.

   "Sunrise" is also the work of Mr. Cao Yu, and it is one of the top ten outstanding contemporary dramas in China.

  Centering on the courtesan Chen Bailu, taking the gorgeous lounge of a big hotel where Chen Bailu lives and the third-class brothel as the venue of the event, it tells about the intrigues of the upper class and the sufferings of the people at the bottom.

  The play was immediately rehearsed and performed by Peking University Drama Club, and once performed, it once again caused a great sensation in the literary world, and was praised as a more outstanding work than "Thunderstorm".

  Lu Xun commented on this play as "the best harvest in China's new literature movement""

Harold Shedick, a professor at Yenching University, praised this drama even more, ""Sunrise" is the most powerful modern Chinese drama I have seen. It can compete with Ibsen and Ibsen without shame. Galsworthy's masterpieces of social drama stand side by side."

  The launch of this drama has once again consolidated Xiang Nan's reputation as a talented scholar, and also won him the admiration of more and more girls. There are really girls who write to him, don't care that he is married, and are willing to be with him for love.

  I can only thank you for being insensitive to this item. After all, it is 1925, not 2025, and the relationship between men and women is still very serious.

   As long as he is stained, it is impossible to be irresponsible. At that time, it was undoubtedly condemned by thousands of people and reviled by thousands of people.

  For the sake of momentary pleasure, it is really not worth the infamy of being a "talented but not virtuous" and "clothed beast", and Xiang Nan doesn't want to cause such trouble.

  So no matter how much a girl admires him, he always keeps her at a respectful distance and stays away, so as not to cause trouble.

   And this kind of self-cleaning and spotless practice made him more loved and respected by students.
