Literary Heroes of the Republic of China

Mu Qiong's pen name for writing novels in Xincheng Monthly is Zhu Shi'an.

He is not very good at naming, so he named it "Shi'an" which means "the world is stable", and added a surname in front of it to deceive people.

After such a toss, this pseudonym looks like a real name. If others want to look for it, they should first go to "Zhu Shi'an". .

With this pseudonym, he can finally write with confidence now that he was afraid to write some things before.

Mu Qiong asked Zheng Runze not to tell others his pen name, Zheng Runze agreed, saying that he would never tell others.

Mu Qiong still trusted Zheng Runze very much, so he left after taking the manuscript fee and went to the orphanage.

The orphanage now has a relatively complete set of rules and regulations. At the same time, the number of orphans inside has also increased to one hundred. If there is no accident, it should continue to increase.

Although there are many children, but because these children are fairly well-behaved, they are easy to manage and do not require much effort.

Jin Huailai probably has other things to do, and now he spends less and less time in the orphanage, but Zhu Wanwan spends all the time in the orphanage except for her studies.

In addition, the orphanage recruited several female workers.Some of these female workers were kicked out by their in-laws because they could not give birth, and some were trafficked and sold to Shanghai. In short, they all suffered a lot.Zhu Wanwan left them in the orphanage, and they were all very grateful to Zhu Wanwan and worked hard.

There is nothing for Mu Qiong to worry about here. Mu Qiong took a look and went to the editorial department of Education Monthly.

After three o'clock in the afternoon, Sheng Chaohui came to the editorial department yawning. When he saw Mu Qiong, he grinned: "Mu Qiong, it's really a pity that you didn't go out with us last night! Learned a lot."

"What did you go to play?" Mu Qiong asked curiously. He liked to chat with Sheng Chaohui very much. He could learn a lot of things from Sheng Chaohui, which he could use when writing novels.

For example, when he wrote "Being an Official", some of the descriptions of the government depended on the memory of the original owner, and others were heard from Sheng Chaohui.

Sheng Chaohui's face was mysterious: "I met the President of Huaguo!"

"President of Huaguo?" Mu Qiong didn't realize it. Is there a country called "Huaguo"?In modern times, some people call China the Kingdom of Hua, but no one called it that at the time.

Seeing Mu Qiong's blank face, Sheng Zhaohui showed a meaningful smile, and then gave Mu Qiong a little introduction.

Only then did Mu Qiong know that the so-called "President of the Flower Country" refers to the most beautiful prostitute in Shanghai.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the brothels in Shanghai began to select "Hua Guo No. [-] Scholar", "Hua Guo No. [-]", "Hua Guo Tan Hua" and so on. Up to now, they have kept pace with the times and started to call presidents and prime ministers.

No.1 is the president of Huaguo, the second and third are the vice presidents of Huaguo, and the No.4 is the prime minister of Huaguo. They will be selected once a year.

"Mu Qiong, would you like to go and meet me?" Sheng Chaohui asked, "The president of Huaguo is really beautiful! But I like the prime minister of Huaguo better. By the way, when they talked to me, they asked Get up Lou Yuyu."

Mu Qiong has no interest in these things at all: "I don't want to see them. Zhaohui, you'd better not go to such places."

"Men always want to see it." Sheng Chaohui disagreed.

Mu Qiong frowned slightly, and said a few more words of persuasion.

Ever since the Educational Monthly made money, Sheng Chaohui has been a little smug and spending more and more money. Mu Qiong thinks this is not a good thing.

Sheng Chaohui is young and likes to have fun, if he is accidentally led astray, his life will be ruined.

"Mu Qiong, your life is really the same as my father's. We are so young, we have to see and try everything anyway." Sheng Chaohui said.

Sheng Chaohui obviously didn't take brothel shopping seriously, and Mu Qiong also knew that people are like this at this time, so he had no choice but to stop persuading him.

At the same time, he also made up his mind that when Mu Changyu is looking for a partner in the future, he must keep an eye on him and never let him find such a man.

Of course, it's still too early to worry about this... What he has to worry about right now should be Mu Changyu's grade-skipping exam.

Primary school at this time was not compulsory education, and not everyone could go to it, and even if they failed the exam, they could still go up to the next level.

At the same time, if you have good grades, it is easy to skip grades.

Mu Changyu decided to skip a grade. After she graduated from the third grade, she planned to skip the fourth grade and go directly to the fifth grade.

On the day of the exam, Mu Qiong's family got up early in the morning. After getting up, Zhu Wanwan ate noodles.

There are two pots in the kitchen at home, one pot boils water to cook noodles, and the other pot fry three poached eggs with oil, then add water, add some pickles to cook noodle soup, it tastes very good.

And when they walked out of the room after breakfast, they still saw Fu Yun'an.

The hospital next to the editorial office of the Education Monthly has been built, and the exterior walls have been plastered. Now, Fu Yun'an really wants to stay there every day—his hospital is about to open, and various arrangements are being made now.

Mu Qiong sometimes stood at the window to get some air when he was tired of writing, and he could see all kinds of people coming and going in and out of the hospital building not far away, and many of those people were familiar to him.

The doctors, Zheng Weixin, Sun Yiyao, and Fu Yun'an's assistants who worked with Fu Yun'an in the free clinic at the beginning, it seems that they will all work in Fu Yun'an's hospital in the future.

Of course, there were many people Mu Qiong didn't know, and some workers moved a lot of things to the hospital.

"I'm going to send Changyu to school today." Seeing Fu Yun'an, Mu Qiong said.

Fu Yun'an has been very busy recently, a few days ago he was afraid that Fu Yun'an would be tired, so he simply didn't send Mu Changyu to school, but walked directly to the hospital with Fu Yun'an.

But today Mu Changyu has an exam, so he plans to accompany him there.

"Me too." Fu Yun'an said: "The hospital is about to open, and I happen to have something to ask you."

Mu Qiong: "..." He doesn't know anything about hospitals, what can Fu Yun'an ask?

Although he gave Fu Yun'an some advanced ideas, such as putting traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine in one hospital and making Chinese patent medicines, he didn't understand the specific operation at all.

Fu Yun'an's reasoning was too perfunctory.

Mu Qiong looked at Fu Yun'an helplessly, and agreed with a smile.

Along the way, Fu Yun'an really didn't ask about the hospital, but only chatted with Mu Qiong. Mu Qiong occasionally looked over and saw him looking at him intently.

On the day when it rained heavily, the two walked home together. After he told Fu Yun'an that he had something to do the next day, Fu Yun'an became more attentive to him.

No matter how busy he was, Fu Yun'an would bring him some food from time to time, and Mu Qiong even felt that he was going to be fed fat.

He already knew Fu Yun'an's intentions.And this point, Fu Yun'an should have guessed it by now.

After all, he was pretty obvious.

But neither of them broke through the last layer of window paper.

Mu Qiong felt that Fu Yun'an probably didn't dare to confess.Judging from the novels he had read before, Fu Yun'an probably felt that he could be friends anyway if he didn't confess his love.

After all, they are the wrong gender.

As for him...

Mu Qiong feels that what he is doing now is a bit like hanging others, which looks pretty scumbag.

But other than that, he couldn't think of any other way to deal with it.

He didn't want to alienate Fu Yunan, but being with Fu Yunan... He didn't think about it either.

Although he has never been in a relationship before, he also thought that if he is in good health, he must marry a beautiful wife and have a lovely child, but if he wants to be with Fu Yun'an, all these will be gone.

Apart from that, they should face many other problems, among other things, Zhu Wanwan would definitely not be able to accept this.

At the same time, their friends, the society, should have a hard time accepting this.

Of course, the most important thing is that he is not sure if he loves Fu Yun'an.

He must have a good impression of Fu Yun'an, but it's not love, he can't say it.

Thinking of this, Mu Qiong looked at Fu Yun'an again.

At this time, most men don't take care of their appearance, but Fu Yun'an has always cleaned himself up very cleanly, especially handsome.

Now she smiled at him.

Once again, Mu Qiong felt... Fu Yun'an was kind of cute.

At the same time, he couldn't help but think of another question - he thinks that the relationship between a partner is one-to-one, but Fu Yun'an...does he think so?

If they are really together, Fu Yun'an still wants to marry a wife and have children... Ha ha!

Fu Yun'an didn't know what Mu Qiong was thinking, but he could guess that Mu Qiong should be very conflicted.

He is not in a hurry, and he doesn't mind Mu Qiong getting entangled slowly.

At the same time, he will also weave a net to catch Mu Qiong.

The two had different thoughts and walked along the way, finally, Mu Changyu's school arrived.

After Mu Changyu went in, Mu Qiong sent Zhu Wanwan to the orphanage, and then went to the editorial department of Education Monthly.

The new issue of Educational Monthly is coming out again, and they have been very busy recently.

But at noon that day, Fu Yun'an came over as usual, and brought Mu Qiong a bowl of ice.

Really just a bowl of ice.

"Someone gave it to me. It's very hot today, I think you'll like it." Fu Yun'an gave the ice to Mu Qiong: "This is clean and edible."

After Fu Yun'an gave the ice, he left in a hurry.

The ice was in pieces, and Mu Qiong finally put the ice into the tea, drinking it not only quenched his thirst but also relieved his heat, which was quite good.

Of course, when drinking, you must think of Fu Yun'an.
