Literary Heroes of the Republic of China

Fu Yun'an was carrying a basket, which contained several kinds of food, all of which were common but exquisite, and must have been bought in a good restaurant.

After dinner, Mu Qiong was really hungry after working so long. He took a duck leg with sauce and ate it, and said with a smile, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Fu Yun'an said, "Are you going home? I'll go with you."

Mu Qiong didn't refuse, they were on the way, he couldn't disagree.

And if he disagrees, Fu Yun'an may be sad.

When they arrived at the entrance of the orphanage, Zhu Wanwan and Mu Changyu happened to come out of the orphanage, and the four of them walked home together.

Mu Qiong had been thinking about "Contagion" and was a little lost in thought. Fu Yun'an asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing, I just saw the news about the war in the west again today, and my mood is quite complicated." Mu Qiong said, and said something else casually: "I don't know what happened to Boss Chen's son."

"There's been a war over there recently, and it's hard to find out a lot of things, but I've already asked someone I know to help find him..." Fu Yun'an's voice was apologetic.

Seeing him like this, Mu Qiong felt even more embarrassed. Unknowingly, he already owed Fu Yun'an a lot of favors...

When they reached the door of the house, they separated.

When Fu Yun'an returned home, the lights in Fu Huai'an's room were still on.

Fu Huai'an probably came out of the room after hearing the commotion: "Brother, the new monthly education magazine is on the market, have you read it?"

"Look." Fu Yun'an said, he was in a good mood at the moment, and added: "The story you translated is very good."

Fu Huai'an immediately became complacent, pretending to be modest: "It's just like that, but it's actually not that good."

If Huo Ying was here, he would definitely be hit, but Fu Yun'an was very friendly to him when Fu Huai'an was out of the way: "It's already very good, keep working hard."

Fu Huai'an became even happier, and said again: "Brother, I want to buy a few more copies and send them back..."

"You can ask Sun Dalin to do it tomorrow." Fu Yun'an agreed.

Sun Dalin bought a lot of educational monthly magazines and had nowhere to go, so I'll send them back tomorrow in the name of Fu Huai'an.

After Fu Yun'an returned to his bedroom, he opened today's Dazhong Daily and read "Wandering Notes" on it.

He did read the Education Monthly, but in fact he simply flipped through it and didn't read it carefully. After all, there were no articles written by Mu Qiong on it.

But he wanted to watch "The Wandering Notes", so that he wouldn't be able to pick up the conversation with Mu Qiong in the future.

He's been very busy lately, so it's kind of a pastime.

It was rare for Fu Yun'an to go to bed early that day, and the next day, he got up on time again.

A few days ago, Fu Huai'an was called up early in the morning just to use Fu Huai'an's mouth to walk with Mu Qiong and the others logically, but now that Mu Qiong and the others are used to walking with him, there is no need to call Fu Huai'an anymore. woke up.

In fact, after confirming what Mu Qiong had guessed, not only did he not need to hide any more, but he also tried hard to let Mu Qiong see his "sincerity".

After Fu Yun'an had breakfast, he began to read a book, and at the same time asked Sun Dalin to keep an eye on the neighbor.

After a while, Sun Dalin said: "Third Young Master, Mr. Mu and the others are going out."

Hearing this, Fu Yun'an stood up and walked out. Hearing the sound of the door opening next door, he also opened the door.

Sure enough, Mu Qiong was looking at him with helplessness in his eyes.

Seeing him like this, Fu Yun'an inexplicably wanted to laugh, and he did, "What a coincidence."

"What a coincidence." Mu Qiong knew that Fu Yun'an would definitely go together, so he simply invited him first: "Doctor Fu, let's go together."

"Okay." Fu Yunan said.

They sent Mu Changyu to school as usual, and then went to the editorial office of Educational Monthly.

Mu Qiong had nothing to do that day, so he spent all his time writing "Contagion".

He spent the whole morning sorting out the outline and details of this novel.

Many of the things he wrote yesterday were background information. The article will definitely not describe the germ warfare of the war of aggression against China in detail. In fact, the key to this article is that a few Japanese students found an abandoned laboratory. The next Chapter 1 will be I wrote it from the perspective of the leading actor Nie Huan, a Chinese doctor.

Of course, as a background, Japan's invasion of China will definitely be mentioned.

And even now, this is not false—although a full-scale invasion of China has not happened, Japan is actually invading China.

During the period of the Qing government, the Sino-Japanese War broke out, followed by the signing of the "Treaty of Shimonoseki", which humiliated the country and humiliated the country.

According to the treaty, not only were the Liaodong Peninsula, Taiwan Island and its affiliated islands, and the Penghu Islands ceded to Japan, but they also had to compensate Japan for military expenses of [-] million taels of silver, open the treaty ports, and so on.

In fact, it was this treaty signed by the Qing government that allowed Japan, which had a small land area and received many constraints, to develop rapidly.

After the First World War, Japan successively invaded and occupied Shandong and Northeast China, and invaded China in an all-round way 20 years later.

Now that such an article "Contagion" is published, the Japanese side will definitely be angry, and those who are pro-Japanese because they went to Japan to study will probably also be angry.

And this is why Mu Qiong used the pen name Tianxing to write.

He cherishes his life. Anything written under Lou Yuyu's pen name will never involve politics, but Tian Xing's pen name doesn't matter.

As for the possible boycott at that time... He felt that Huo Sanshao would definitely be able to handle it well.

The territory occupied by the Huo family is not smaller than that of Japan, and he doesn't think the Huo family will be afraid of Japan.

And it's not a bad thing for the Huo family to go against Japan in this way.

After Mu Qionghua sorted out the book in the morning, he started writing in the afternoon.

In one afternoon, he wrote [-] words, and his hands were sore.

Wei Ting had something to do that day, and he didn't go to Ping'an Middle School for dinner, so Mrs. Yao didn't go to cook, so Mu Qiong went directly to the orphanage to eat.

When Mu Qiong arrived at the orphanage, the children in the orphanage were having dinner.

What they ate this evening was white rice and boiled cowpeas. In addition, each of them was given a spoonful of pork liver.

It is really a spoon in a spoon. The pork liver is cut into small pieces and cooked with soy sauce. Each person shares a spoonful of nutrition.

These are all suggested by Mu Qiong. Most of these orphans are malnourished, and at least one-third of the children suffer from night blindness. He also pays great attention to their nutrition.

Of course, Mu Qiong didn't eat these things.

Mrs. Yao cooked some other dishes for Jin Huailai, the soldiers sent by Huo Ershao, and Mu Qiong, Zhu Wanwan and others. As for herself, she insisted on not eating, and she ate the same food as those children.

On the one hand, she is embarrassed to eat too well, on the other hand, it is because for her, eating the same food as those children is already very good. She used to eat sweet potatoes at Yao's house, let alone white rice. Can't open it up to eat.

Mu Qiong, Jin Huailai and others ate together. The cowpeas on the table were not boiled but fried. In addition, there were fried eggplant, dried bamboo shoots and old duck soup, and a large plate of scrambled eggs.

As for Mu Changyu and Zhu Wanwan, they also ate the same four dishes, but they didn't eat with them, but reserved some to eat elsewhere.

At this time, it is not good for men and women to sit together.

After Mu Qiong finished eating, he went to find them, and then found that Mu Changyu was eating, as if he was a little tasteless: "Changyu, what's wrong with you? The food is not delicious?"

"No... brother, those children eat so poorly, we eat so well..." Mu Changyu's face showed guilt.

Mu Qiong said: "Changyu, if you eat the same food as them, then my hard work is not in vain? We can't live the same life as them just because of sympathy. What's more, there are so many poor people in this world. We can’t help others by ourselves.”

Mu Qiong is willing to help others, but he does not intend to treat himself badly in order to help others.

Mu Changyu just couldn't figure it out for a while, but now after hearing what Mu Qiong said, he didn't struggle anymore, and just said, "Brother, I need your help."

"What's the matter?" Mu Qiong asked.

"Brother, I want a name." Mu Changyu said.

The big ya and er ya that Mu Changyu was talking about were Miss Yao and Second Miss Yao.

Those who rented a house in Yao's house at the beginning called them the eldest lady and the second miss, but in fact, these two girls have never been favored in the Yao family, and they don't even have a better name, so they just call them whatever they want. with.

"Does Mrs. Yao know about naming things?" Mu Qiong asked, he couldn't just name people casually.

"Of course I know." Mu Changyu said, "Brother, don't call her Mrs. Yao anymore. Her name is Qi Xiufen. Everyone calls her Aunt Qi now."

Since Mrs. Yao also knew about this, Mu Qiong certainly would not disagree. He called Mrs. Yao... no, Aunt Qi's family, and asked them about their naming.

When Aunt Qi first came to the orphanage, she always looked embarrassed and guilty when she saw Mu Qiong, but now she is better: "My surname will be my surname, I want to give them a better name."

Mu Qiong was a little surprised when she said that she wanted her daughter to have her surname, but her impression of her was much better, and she asked, "What do you expect from them?"

Aunt Qi thought for a while and said, "I hope they are safe and sound."

"My name is Qi Xinping, Qi Xin'an?" Mu Qiong said, "Actually, I'm not very good at naming names. If you think it's inappropriate, then think about something else."

"It's very suitable." Aunt Qi was very happy: "Mr. Mu, the name you named is just nice!"

Aunt Qi was full of admiration, and Qi Xinping and Qi Xin'an were also full of admiration, which made Mu Qiong a little embarrassed.

Jin Huailai often praised him in the orphanage, and now everyone in the orphanage knew that the orphanage appeared because he wrote "Wandering", so that everyone couldn't worship him... He was a little helpless.

"Does this child have a name?" Mu Qiong asked, pointing to Aunt Qi's youngest son.

Aunt Qi shook her head: "I usually call him Bao'er."

"Why not call him Qi Xinbao." Mu Qiong said.

Aunt Qi was stunned when she heard the words.

Her youngest son obviously has a problem. She has made up her mind to raise this child for the rest of her life. Naturally, she thinks that the child can be called whatever he wants, and there is no need for a good name. As a result, Mu Qiong gave him a name now. ...

Mu Qiong said again: "Teach him more when you have time, I don't think he is particularly stupid."

Mu Qiong didn't know what was going on with the child, but he wanted to teach him anyway.

Even if he can't teach well, he must be able to take care of himself.

Mu Qiong stayed in the orphanage for a while, then returned to the editorial office of the Educational Monthly, and continued to write "Contagion" with the lights on all night.

His hard work was not in vain. In just a few days, he wrote the [-]-word "Contagion" and sent the letter.
