Compared with the deserted Jin family, when Bai Xiuzhu returned home from the third day of the third year of junior high school, she saw a long queue in front of Bai's house. They were all coming to pay New Year's greetings and give gifts, and the alley in front of Bai's house was almost blocked. .

"Look, my brother is still more powerful." Seeing this, Bai Xiuzhu said proudly.

When Xiang Nan saw her saying this, he immediately smiled politely but awkwardly.

In fact, after Bai Xiongqi became prime minister, Bai Xiuzhu was inevitably a bit arrogant.

Especially after Jin Quan left office, the three sons of the Jin family were fired, and Baek Xiong was finally reinstated, she became even more arrogant.

Fortunately, Xiang Nan is more promising than Jin Yanxi. He is a well-known scholar in the country. He has good looks, talent, and wealth. He is not much inferior to her sister, the Prime Minister.

That's why Bai Xiuzhu didn't raise her tail to the sky. Otherwise, if it were Jin Yanxi's coward, even if they got married, he would be despised by Bai Xiuzhu.

"Yan Xi, resign from your teaching position and come over to help me." Bai Xiongqi smiled and said to Xiang Nan, "With your talents, it is a pity to be a professor."

"Thank you for the compliment, brother. But I don't have any ambitions. I am satisfied if I can do a good job as a teacher." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "But brother is still in the prime of life and should take a step forward."

"Then you and your sister can move back here. The house here will always be kept." Bai Xiongqi added.

"Thank you, brother, but our house is also empty." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "If you miss Xiuzhu, I will just bring her back later."

He is the son of the Jin family, not the son-in-law of the Bai family, so why would he go to live with the Bai family? Bai Xiongqi really saw the Jin family in decline, and he actually bullied others to this extent.

"Brother, I live well in the Jin family, so I won't move back and forth." Bai Xiuzhu heard what her brother said and also spoke to Xiang Nan.

Although she is a bit arrogant now, she still loves Xiang Nande after all. She naturally knows the difference between living in the Jin family and living in the Bai family, and does not want to embarrass Xiang Nan.

"That's it." Bai Xiong saw his sister saying this, so he could only nod.

…

In 2025, Xiang Nan still focused on teaching and writing.

"Two Prides" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" have been serialized, and Xiang Nan is now starting to serialize "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy 2" (the story is adapted from "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3").

After the two novels were released, they are naturally still very popular.

On the one hand, his writing techniques are the latest. Today's vernacular has only just developed a few years ago, and his techniques are not yet sophisticated. In comparison, when Xiang Nan started writing online articles, vernacular had already been developed for hundreds of years and had become very mature.

Many commonplace techniques were a major innovation in the Republic of China. For example, the image of the protagonist is both good and evil, which is not new to modern people at all. However, the protagonists in novels during the Republic of China were definitely mainly positive.

For example, psychological description of characters is very common now. But at that time, there was little psychological description of characters, and they could only be profiled through words, actions, and expressions.

On the one hand, Xiang Nan's story is also the latest. Most of the stories from the Republic of China period are relatively traditional, especially the popular novels, which are basically about talents, beauties, love, hate, and hatred.

Xiang Nan's story is a great innovation, integrating martial arts, detectives, love, history, war and many other elements into one. It has rich themes and novel stories, so it is naturally very popular.

Therefore, Xiang Nan's remuneration at this time had also risen to ten yuan per thousand words, which was considered the highest level at the time. Twelve thousand words a day, which is 3,600 yuan a month, is definitely a high income.

…

In terms of teaching, Xiang Nan still teaches step by step.

But usually, I like to mingle with my classmates, such as playing basketball together.

He also has martial arts skills and inherited Liu Wenqin's basketball skills. He is invincible when playing basketball.

Therefore, every time it is played, it can attract a large number of students to stop.

And his approachable approach also won him the love of his classmates.

In addition, after school started at the beginning of the year, Xiang Nan also released a new song - "One Cut Plum".

"True love blooms like plum blossoms

Cold ice and snow cannot drown

Blooming on the coldest branches

See spring coming to you and me

…

Snowflakes are falling and the north wind is blowing

The world is vast

A cold plum stands proudly in the snow

Just for my sweetheart"

Because of the beautiful melody and touching lyrics, especially the line in the song "A cold plum blossom stands proudly in the snow and blooms on the coldest branch", it is even more meaningful. Therefore, it is very popular among young people.

Moreover, not only revolutionary youths like it, but also ordinary listeners. It is melodious, affectionate, and really beautiful, so it spread quickly.

This also allowed Xiang Nan's popularity to continue to be maintained.

What is particularly rare is that in March, Hujiang EMI Records bought half of the copyright of "One Cut Plum" for a price of 100 yuan, and then invited Cai Ling, a popular singer in Hujiang at the time, to record the record and broadcast it on the then China Radio Company

.

Once it was broadcast, it quickly caused a sensation, creating a scene where everyone in Shanghai and Jiangxi sang "One Cut Plum", making Xiang Nan's name known to more and more people.

…

In April, Xiang Nan created a new play "Sunrise" for the Peking University Drama Club.

"Sunrise" is also a work by Mr. Cao Yu and is one of the top ten outstanding contemporary Chinese dramas.

Centered on the socialite Chen Bailu, and taking the gorgeous lounge of a big hotel and the third-class brothel where Chen Bailu lives as the venue, it tells the story of the intrigues of the upper class and the pain and suffering of the people at the bottom.

The play was immediately rehearsed and performed by the Peking University Drama Club. Once performed, it once again caused a great sensation in the literary world and was hailed as a more outstanding work than "Thunderstorm".

Lu Xun praised this play as "the best harvest in China's new literature movement."

Harold Sheddick, a professor at Yenching University, even praised the play, "Sunrise is the most powerful modern Chinese drama I have seen. It can stand up to Ibsen and Ibsen without shame."

Galsworthy’s masterpiece of social drama stands side by side.”

The launch of this drama has once again solidified Xiang Nan's reputation as a talented man, and also made him admired by more and more girls. There are girls who write to him, not caring that he is married, and willing to stay with him for the sake of love.

Together.

I can only express my gratitude to Xiang Nan. After all, this is 1925, not 2025, and the relationship between men and women is still very serious.

As long as he got involved, he would not be irresponsible. He started chaos and finally gave up. At that time, he would undoubtedly be criticized by thousands of people and reviled by thousands of people.

For the sake of temporary pleasure, it is not worth it to be called "talented but not moral" and "dressed like a beast", and Xiang Nan does not want to cause such trouble.

So no matter how much a girl admires him, he always keeps her distance and stays away to avoid getting into trouble.

And this kind of clean and tidy behavior made him even more loved and respected by his students.
