National Party Elder
"Miss Zhang, although I deeply sympathize with your situation, it's too unfair for you to get married now. Why don't I fake a marriage first? How about suppressing the matter of your father forcing you to get married first!
We can talk about our feelings in the future! If both of us get along, how about we do it as husband and wife!”Ao Yi said!
This was something that Ao Yi had no other choice. No one could endure such torment. As a dragon, leaving a woman was like leaving a fish in water! If it wasn't for the fact that he hadn't successfully transformed yet, he would have had a lot of wives and concubines!
His current body was made of a shapeshifting object. The second brother below had that shape but not that function! His true form was still a golden dragon! He was currently in the Golden Core Stage, and could only transform into a human when he reached the Nascent Soul Stage! It seemed that for the sake of his future sexual happiness, he had to put this cultivation on his schedule as soon as possible!
After hearing Ao Yi's words, Zhang Liying felt that she had not misjudged this person. This person was worthy of her trust! "Really? I don't think I've misjudged you. Besides, if I add another person, I won't divorce you unless you divorce me!”
Women in this era still divorced. In the early years of the Republic of China, all kinds of old ideas began to be broken. The first step was for women not to bind their feet! Previously, the two couples had relied on their parents 'orders to get married. The matchmaker had never met before marriage, and their personalities were different. It was easy to have conflicts if they relied on their understanding after marriage!
However, for some big families, their parents did not receive new education, and their children were more or less influenced. For example, Zhang Liying was like this. Although she hated the marriage arranged by the elders, she still agreed with the idea that men had many women and that a woman could only have one man in her life!
As a man, Ao Yi was very touched when he heard Zhang Liying say that she would only marry once in her life. Today, it could be considered love at first sight for the two of them!
"Liying, let me send you home!" Ao Yi took the initiative to send this woman, whom he had just met for the first time today, home. This woman was already his wife! Of course, they were obliged to send him home. In this generation, there were already trams in Shanghai, but most of the nobles or upper-class people took those rickshaws, the kind that were pulled by humans!
As for cars, there were very few in 1930! Not many people could afford it! Even if there were, not many people in the wealthy families would have one. There were even fewer people who knew how to drive than those university students!
"Alright, thank you! Ao Yi, can you meet my father today? I don't even want to go home now!”Zhang Liying said that they fell in love at first sight, as if they had been together for three years!
"Of course, that's not a problem. Let's go. I'll accompany you to meet this father-in-law! Wait a moment, I'll go get the car!”Ao Yi said!
"Ah! This Ao Yi was from the Che Clan! That's great. At least he won't be poor!”Zhang Liying added a few more points to Ao Yi! If her father did not agree today, she was not afraid that her father would cut off her source of income! At most, she would elope with Ao Yi! She didn't have a job. Besides, her family was so rich that she didn't need to do any work. Her father didn't want her to always show her face in public, but she couldn't stay idle if she didn't work. She always went to the outside world!
"Get in the car! It was faster to drive where his home was!”Ao Yi said! As a college student in the 21st century, he basically got his driver's license in school. He came from a modern society and had a wide range of knowledge. Although he had never been abroad, he knew more than Zhang Liying, who had been to Europe several times! Previously, when they were talking in the outside world, Ao Yi even showed off a lot of English, which made Zhang Liying's face full of stars!
Ao Yi was a CET-6 student, and his university teacher was a foreign teacher. His English was very good, and he had also learned some foreign information from the Internet. Zhang Liying didn't realize that Ao Yi was lying to her!
Soon, they arrived at Zhang Liying's home. His home was not in the concession, but in the Kuomintang-ruled area. There were many wealthy families here!
Zhang Liying's father was the elder of the National Party, Zhang Dingjiang. Ao Yi did not know who this Zhang Dingjiang was. If he knew, he probably would not dare to go home with his father so brazenly!
Speaking of which, Zhang Liying's father was a rather impressive figure. Although he was a businessman, his words were taken seriously by the higher-ups of the National Party!
Zhang Dingjiang, one of the four tycoons of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang consortia in the early 20th century, and one of the "four elders" of the National Party. Sun Dapao called him "Second Brother" and "China's number one strange person". The chairman called him the "revolutionary mentor," and Chen Guofu called him the "number one person in managing the finances of the party and the state." In the spring of 1906, he met Sun Dapao and began to engage in the anti-Qing struggle. He gave advice to Sun Dapao and donated his family property to fund the revolution. After Sun Dapao's death, he turned the tide. During his tenure as the head of the Central Standing Committee of the National Party and the acting head of the Central Executive Committee, he spared no effort in helping the chairman seize the highest power of the party and government.
In January 1924, he was elected as a member of the Central Executive Committee during the National Party's First National Congress. He was also the chairman's party oath supervisor. After Sun Dapao's death, he participated in the Xishan Conference and served as the head of the Central Political Conference of the National Party. In May 1926, he acted as the head of the Standing Committee of the Central Executive Committee.
In 1927, he became the head of the Political Branch of Zhejiang Province. In 1928, he became the head of the Construction Committee of the Nanjing National Government. In the same year, he became the head of the Zhejiang Provincial Government. During his time as governor of Zhejiang Province, he had done two things: The first was to hold the West Lake World Exposition, which was to reward industries and revitalize domestic production. The second was to advocate a private railway. Zhang Dingjiang presided over the construction of the railway from Hangzhou to Jiangshan. He proposed not to use foreign capital and not to invite foreigners to set up the company. These two events had a positive effect on promoting Zhejiang's economic development. At that time, it was undoubtedly rare for an official to be willing to do one or two practical things.
Zhang Dingjiang was now the head of the Central Executive Committee and the governor of Zhejiang Province! The official position was so big that it scared people to death! Y should be at the national level now!
Zhang Dingjiang was usually very busy. He had been at home in Shanghai for the past few days, accompanying his family. In a few days, he would have to go to the Nanjing National Government to deal with some matters! It was already half-past nine today, but why was his youngest daughter not home yet? He was so angry that he did not do anything! He sat on the sofa and waited for his youngest daughter to come back!
"Sigh, this little girl is too wild! Don't you know that it's not good for a girl to go out and show her face?! It seemed that she had to find someone to marry him off! Otherwise, it would really be difficult for her to get married!”Zhang Dingjiang thought of something he did not expect. His daughter had already found Ao Yi!
He had already found a person for Zhang Liying, the former foreign teacher, Chen Youren. Although this person was one year older than him, he was 55 years old this year.
Chen Youren was Zhang Dingjiang's close comrade. The news of the 1911 Revolution had just reached London. Although he had never returned to China and did not speak a word of Chinese, he had always believed that he was a Chinese and had always been concerned about the affairs of China. The more he talked with his friends, the more excited he became. In his excitement, he made the biggest decision of his life. Back to Huaxia. He didn't even go home and went to Huaxia without hesitation. He did what he said, which was in line with his decisive personality.
He did not know if this was an inevitable choice in Chen Youren's life, or if it was a predestined arrangement? His career changed from a lawyer to a newspaper editor, a revolutionary, and a diplomat. It also gave Sun Dapao a close comrade and assistant, and an outstanding foreign minister in the National Government.
(After his first wife, Mary Liang, died of illness in 1926, Chen Ren married Zhang Liying, daughter of the National Party elder Zhang Dingjiang, in Paris in 1930.) In 1941, the couple were arrested by the Japanese army in Hong Kong and escorted to Shanghai, where they were placed under house arrest for a long time. After Chen Youren's death, Zhang Liying was not released until after the Second World War. She later immigrated to America, France, Singapore, and other places, and died in the 1990s.）
Zhang Dingjiang was Chen Ren's close comrade! Therefore, she did not care much about seniority. She only admired Chen Ren's dedication to the country and decided to recommend her daughter to him!
