[Titanic] Golden House

Chapter 26

Rose's advice to Li Yetong was tricky.In the hearts of ordinary people.Only the people in my own family need to be treated well, the others are just outsiders.That is to say, the outsiders, the outsiders' affairs, do it with them.This is the same as the saying that all children in one's own family are good, and the bad ones are also good.

But Rose's idea is to turn outsiders in this matter into her own family.If this women's alliance is full of family members of those in power or important people.So many things cannot be discussed in the same way.

For other women to participate in politics, in the eyes of men, it is a major event like rebellion.But my own woman wants to participate in politics, or can participate in politics.Instead, the man felt honored.

When Rose gave Li Yetong an idea, Li Yetong quickly released the news.The threshold for their women's league is too high, and nearly 80.00% of the women mentioned by Rose are not included.If these people are really recruited into the League.It is very likely that the alliance will find a qualitative change.

At that time, what Li Yetong did not mention in the telegram was that the quality of these people was beyond description.Some have not read the book, very philistine.Some of them have read books, but they obey their husbands every day, and obey their husbands' three obediences and four virtues.There are also some, which roughly meet the membership requirements of the Tongmenghui, but their ambitions are no less than that of the Lafayette.

Others even asked directly to become the president.They cooperated with their master inside and outside.Also, the first wife wants power, and the concubine wants to overwhelm Dongfeng.Once this kind of person enters the Tongmenghui, it doesn't matter whether the Tongmenghui will become a mess, but it's almost the same.

Rose thought about it.Eventually a telegram came back.Is it important for the League or for women to participate in politics.Is it important to get out of the backyard or feminism.Many things, there is no way to have the best of both worlds.All we can do is choose one.

The disadvantage of this is that the alliance will be assimilated by those people, or it will be assimilated by others. In short, it is a process of time.But time can also prove that the alliance exists, doesn't it?

Maybe one day in the future, the Women's Suffrage League will become the reliance of some ambitious women.Perhaps, it will become a subsidiary of some man.But these can guarantee the legitimacy and recognition of the League.

The biggest problem for Li Yetong and the others now is that the alliance will not be recognized.If it can be recognized, then things in the future can actually be done slowly.

Time and space are turning, when Li Yetong received Rose's telegram again, the emotion in his heart can no longer be described in words.As expected of someone who aspires to be a queen, what she sees and thinks is different from them.

Now, Li Yetong actually agreed with Rose's idea in his heart.Although this is very likely to make the women's alliance in her heart sour.But she cannot deny that this is a good way to get the fastest approval from Congress.As long as the legitimacy is recognized by Congress, there is an opportunity to participate in politics.Other things can take their time.

On April [-]th, [-], after Li Yetong made up his mind, he called together the president and initial members of the Women's League.She relayed her decision to everyone.

Those who can organize and join the League are not lacking in intelligent people.Li Yetong's idea just came out.There was a word in everyone's mind, and they took advantage of the situation.

Although a little reconciled, they also know that in the face of lack of absolute strength and the right to speak, temporary bowing and compromise are inevitable.

"Let's invite the president's wife to join the club first." This was first proposed by the president of the League.

"Will Mrs. Yuan agree to join the association? The President does not approve of the Women's League."

"The Tongmenghui can invite other wives to participate in the meeting. This is a force. Madam Yuan can fully grasp this force. Presumably the power is in the hands of the President. It should not be difficult."

"The most important thing is that once women participate in politics, they have the right to vote veto. This can increase the power of the president in Congress."

"Moreover, once Madam Yuan has power, the President will pay more attention to her, and she will have more prestige in the backyard of the Presidential Palace."

"Wait a minute, how did I hear that the President values ​​the Fifth Aunt? Now the Yuan Manor is the housekeeper of the Fifth Aunt. Maybe we should invite the Fifth Aunt."

"It's not good to go beyond the main room and invite my aunt."

"I also heard that the President doesn't like the original wife. If you invite the original wife, maybe something..." The speaker said half and kept the other half.But everyone in the seat understood what she had said.

"Actually, there is a courteous wife in the front who is honest and righteous, and a concubine who is watching over her later. If we invite this fifth concubine, it may be profitable."

Hearing this sentence, several people's eyes are all bright.At the same time an idea came to mind.

......

"Wait until all the wives have joined the League. We can also develop more civilian members."

"That's right, in this way, whenever something important happens, we can also hold a vote in the Women's League. The final result of the vote is the result of the vote in Congress." Sometimes, one vote can also decide the key of.

After thinking of this one, several unparalleled women thought of many ways.And many methods have also helped the League to become independent.

Of course, how did the Women's Suffrage Alliance headed by Li Yetong invite the wives and ladies of various families.And how to make these wives and young ladies go home and grind their own family members to agree to women's participation in politics, Rose doesn't know anything about it.

Because of the time difference, Rose has just delivered breakfast at this moment.And during breakfast, she heard a piece of news that nearly dropped Rose's jaw.

NO.12 night, that is, last night.On the deck of the Titanic, a hero saved the beauty.The hero is still that hero, but the heroine is someone else.

Not only has the heroine changed, she is also a pregnant woman.She is the American rich man Sean Astor, his petite and young wife McPhee.

It turned out that yesterday's dinner party still started as usual.There are many people in the restaurant, and the smell is a bit messy.As a pregnant woman, McPhee wanted to go out for some air.Accompanied by the maid, McPhee, who was breathing on the deck, suddenly felt a little thirsty.So he sent the maid to fetch some drinks.

Unexpectedly, the maid left with her front foot, but McPhee's back foot cramped a little.When he was about to fall, let Jack Dawson, who was also on the deck, touch him.This is how a simple hero save the beauty came out.

I don't know if Rose thinks differently from others, or if these American men think too much the same.Originally, giving a sum of money could be regarded as a thank you gift, but I insisted on inviting a third-class guest to have dinner in the first-class cabin.

It's not what's wrong with it, and showing off your wealth isn't like that.Don't be afraid of people with dark hearts retaliating against society.

"Jenny, you mean that Mr. Jack Dawson will have dinner with us tonight. Is that so?"

"Yes, Mr. Sean Astor's invitation is tonight. Miss Rose, is there any problem with that?"

"I'm wondering if Mr. Sean Astor looks down on that Mr. Jack Dawson."

"Why do you say that?" Probably not.He saved his wife, didn't he?

"He rescued his wife on the front foot, and he invited his wife's savior to the first-class cabin for dinner on the back foot. Let him feel the gap between the rich and the poor up close, and let him understand how the rich live in extravagance and waste. How do the people in the first class live, and then compare the living conditions of the third class, this Mr. Jack Dawson, he must think that this is revenge."

Jenny: "..." I really think something is wrong.

"Do you think this is repayment or revenge?"

"Maybe Sien Ashto didn't think that much." Jenny said with uncertainty.

"Actually, wouldn't it be better to give him a sum of money directly? It can be considered labor income. You just said that you should live in the third class. Obviously, you are going to the United States to develop. Give him a sum of money, or give him The last job is much better than eating an uncomfortable dinner. At least the former solves the problem of livelihood in the future. The latter is actually to satisfy curiosity."

Jenny thought about it, and came up with another possibility. "Actually, I think eating together is beneficial. At least you can get to know more people. It will also be helpful for your future development in the United States."

"The premise is that these first-class guests will really put this Mr. Jack Dawson in their eyes. Don't forget that rich people also have their own pride." All kinds of temptations and sarcasms.Although Rufu's words are the harshest.

Jenny couldn't refute Rose's words.

Later, Jenny asked again: "Miss Rose, will you attend the dinner tonight?"

"Yes, I'd like to see what kind of character that Jack Dawson is. He actually made Mr. Sean Estor even stingy with tips." After speaking, Rose remembered that in the original book, Rose stopped The part where Carl tipped Jack was speechless on the spot. Rose, a woman, had never been understood by her.Good thing she wasn't her.

Jenny: "..." How should I continue this sentence.

Speaking of this, Rose remembered an important thing. "By the way, what's going on with Carter?"

"It has been dealt with. The first mate William and the second mate Lightoller both accepted the gift. They also promised to reduce the speed of the ship to the minimum speed by night."

"Well, I told them, is it the whole process?"

"Having said that, Carter told them that they will have another copy when they return to England."

"Miss Rose, Mr. Hockley is visiting." Tracy knocked on Rose's door, stood in front of the door, and said softly.

"I see." I heard Tracy say the word 'visit'.Rose shook her head and smiled.This fart is a big place, is it still necessary to visit?After thinking for a while, Rose stood up from her seat.

"Come here today. Tell Carter to keep an eye on Captain Smith. Pay attention to what's going on in Huaxia. If there's nothing else, you don't need to come here today."

Speaking of Captain Smith, Rose can actually act first.But Rose always thinks of people in a bad way. She is afraid that if her front foot promises her to slow down, her back foot will promise Emes to speed up.

So Rose is going to use the content of their conversation as a bargaining chip after Emes talks with Captain Smith, or you can take my gold and slow down and reach New York safely.Or Rose would take it as a threat, tell the ship's guests and report the matter to the newspaper by telegraph.

Of course, just in case, the two first and second mates that Carter bought with money played a relatively decisive role.She will not let Rufu, who took her like jewels and treasures, become a widow again.

"I see, Miss Rose." Jenny tidied up her things and followed Rose out of the room.After giving a slight salute to Carl in the living room, he returned to his cabin.

"Why are you here now? Are you not busy?" As soon as Rose came out, Carl stood up from the sofa.Seeing him like this, Rose first asked with a smile.
