Chapter 74



74 Opinion

Hou Xiling had not written for a few years, but his skills were still the same.

The character in the script was well-developed. An jiuyi was ruthless and apathetic.

Xiao Zi was passionate, bold, and unrestrained. He loved his country and worried about his people.

When Beiping was about to fall, the warlords took the opportunity to seize territory, regardless of the life and death of the country. Everyone’s character was written on paper.

Hou Xiling had arranged to meet Jiang se the next day. Therefore, Jiang se put down the script in her hand after 9:30 even though she had not finished the story.

After hou Xiling called her yesterday, he had already sent her his home address.

The old lady wasn’t used to the current way of contacting people, so she sent a text message. She opened it, washed up, changed her clothes, and went out. She found a breakfast shop outside the community and had breakfast before taking the subway.

Hou Xiling’s house was located in a courtyard house on the east side of the imperial capital’s middle circle. The house had an antique feel to it. The price of the houses in this area had been increasing with the development of time. It was a place that could not be bought even if one had the money.

She bought some fruits. When she carried them over and knocked on the door, hou Xiling was holding a kettle and watering the Camellia.

In the early years, hou Xiling had bought the entire courtyard. The main door faced the main house, and there were wing-rooms on both sides. The middle courtyard was divided into two. One half had grape racks, and the other half had stone tables and chairs. The other half was empty.

There were some flowers and trees around the courtyard, and a Begonia tree was planted in a corner of the courtyard. It was quite big.

“Xiaojiang is here.”

After hou Xiling’s wife opened the door, hou Xiling finished watering the plants. He put down the pot and smiled as he waved at Jiang se.

There seemed to be no one else in the house other than the two elders. Jiang se greeted the two elders first, and hou Xiling said, ”

“You’re early.”

It was only nine O ‘clock when Jiang se arrived. It was indeed early. it’s a rare opportunity to talk to teacher hou, so I wanted to visit earlier. I was just afraid of disturbing you.

Hou Xiling’s wife had been a high school teacher in her early years. Although she was old, she had a good temperament. Clearly, she knew that Jiang se was coming and had prepared tea for her.

When she heard Jiang SE’s words, she smiled and said, ”

“We don’t usually have many people here. After the child grows up, he has nothing to do at home. It’s good that he’s here.”

Hou Xiling led Jiang se to a stone table in the courtyard. The imperial capital’s weather was turning cold in the middle of October. He was wearing a white shirt and a gray knitted jacket. He chatted with Jiang se.

“Have you finished reading the script for” events of Beiping “?”

Jiang se shook her head and answered honestly, ”

not yet. I usually live on campus, and I occasionally go back to check. Last night, I saw Xiao Zi trying to stop an jiuxiao from signing the contract with the Japanese invaders and stop the fall of Beiping.

She did not read the book in a hurry. Instead, she read it slowly. Perhaps she had learned the Chinese Language and Literature before her rebirth. When she was reading, she noticed that hou Xiling was very particular about the words and sentences he used. This showed that he had a deep foundation in writing.

“Reading books is a very pleasant process for me.” Especially when he read hou Xiling’s books. Every paragraph was reminiscing, and after reading a paragraph, he would be in a good mood.

Hou Xiling clearly agreed with her. When the Marquis Madam washed the fruits and brought them out, the two of them had already started talking about the characters in the drama.

“What do you think of the ‘doukou’ in the movie?”

The Marquis Madam smiled and shook her head. She sat down as well and waited for Jiang SE’s answer.

“To be honest, when I first saw the role of ‘doukou,’ other than the fact that you’re the scriptwriter and director Lin values the movie, I was actually a little hesitant when I saw the identity of ‘doukou .'”

Jiang se picked up her teacup and took a sip.

When the Marquis Madam heard her say this, she understood and nodded.

No matter how stunning the appearance of the ‘doukou’ in the novel was, when she first appeared, her origin was still a major flaw.

Generally, those who were willing to act as such women were usually played by sexy female stars in movies to show their charm and allure.

However, hou Xiling did the exact opposite. He wrote an image of a woman who was completely different from what everyone had in mind.

“The reason why I’m interested in the role of ‘doukou’ is because you’ve brought her to life.” Hou Xiling smiled and gestured for her to continue.

“She’s tried to capture Xiao Zi several times, but she’s let him escape several times. This kind of action subconsciously proves that her feelings for Xiao Zi are extremely complicated and reserved. She fell into the party and was saved by an jiuyi. So when an jiuyi’s power fell, she still stayed by an jiuyi’s side and never left.” Deep down, there was a sense of ‘righteousness’ that many men did not have.

“In” Grand occasion of Beiping,”many people felt sorry for her, thinking that she had lost her virginity and purity. Entering the pleasure Hall was like falling into a quagmire. However, when Xiao Zi took over the an residences and captured an jiuxiao, the moment he saw her, she started singing ‘a maiden’s day’s chant’. ” When Jiang se said this, she added, ”

“I think this place is very interesting.”

In many people’s eyes, a ‘doukou’ who was born in a Pleasure House and wandered between men was not a chaste woman. However, when she was captured, she sang ” a maiden’s Day song. it was obvious that she had her own standards in the depths of her heart about whether she was chaste or not.

She didn’t think that she was dirty. The only dirty ones were those who coveted her beauty.

she once said that she didn’t think that she was born a ghost, but that the world had forced her to become a ghost. I think this is a kind of condemnation of the world.

The Marquis Madam also nodded and expressed her opinion.

“I think that rather than saying that she was refuting Xiao Zi, it would be more appropriate to say that she was fighting against the social environment at that time and was unwilling to yield. I have the same opinion as you, Xiaojiang.”

Madam hou had heard hou Xiling mention Jiang se before. She even knew that hou Xiling had invited Chang Yuhu for Jiang SE’s sake. Back then, she had been very curious about Jiang se. Now that she had met her, she felt that her husband had a good eye for women.

The few of them discussed for a while, from ” events of Beiping ” to foreign religious works. It was fine that hou Xiling and his wife were knowledgeable, after all, they were older.

However, what surprised hou Xiling was that Jiang se had read many books. It was hard to imagine that she was still young.

Sometimes, when she did not understand something, she would listen quietly and humbly ask for advice. The couple felt at ease when they talked to each other. When Chang Yuhu called hou Xiling to remind him of the appointed time, Mrs. Hou was reluctant to let her go. She even invited Jiang se to visit their house next time.

The restaurant that hou Xiling had booked was a traditional-style restaurant. It was not located in a busy street but in a courtyard house.

He was old, but he walked most of the time. He would only take public transportation when it was too far away. His life was very simple.

The restaurant was not far from the hou family’s residence. They arrived after walking two alleys. When the two of them came over, they happened to meet Chang Yuhu at the door.
