Chapter 75 What Taeyeon Only Knows

Not asking does not mean not caring, not saying it does not mean not wanting to share.

There are some things that need not be said or some things need not be asked.

=================================

The old man's surname is Jiang, well, this is nonsense... but it is also true. It is said that their ancestor is the legendary Jiang Taigong. It is said that when King Zhou's uncle Jizi brought his tribe members to Korea with his tribe members, although the king of Zhou Dynasty expressed his generosity and did not stop him too much, he was always worried. It is not that he did not believe in Jizi's character, but you cannot guarantee that his tribe members have noble character like him. So as the prime minister and the founder of Qi, the largest vassal state at that time, he understood that one of his sons also came to Korea with Jizi, and then took root here.

It is said that it is just said that as for whether this is true or not, it is impossible to verify. Anyway, looking at the history of the entire peninsula, it is always closely related to the big country next to it. Even if they emphasize the history of their own nation and think that other people's things are their own, they cannot bypass the powerful and terrible country next to them.

Logically speaking, this was not a very formal family meeting, but both Jiang Zhijian and Jiang Zhidong were very eye-catching and gave the grandfather and grandson a chance to get along alone.

Not to mention the conversation between the grandfather and grandson, Kim Taeyeon, who had been sitting in the living room, was now surprised.

Regarding the girl Kim Taeyeon, Jiang Zhijian also talked to Jiang Zhidong. As the closest friend of the opposite sex with the third generation eldest grandson, others would naturally greet her very kindly. But no matter how you say it is, it is a strange environment. For Kim Taeyeon, she just knows Jiang Zhijian. She will inevitably be a little restrained. So Jiang Zhijian talks to her about some of the things about their Jiang family.

Since knowing that the house here is very old, Kim Taeyeon knew that Kang Jae-hee's family must have a great background in ancient times, but this was nothing. People in ancient times had passed away, and whether they were used to commemorate or show off, there was actually not much change in their current life. But even so, the official positions that did not understand very well in ancient times, but sounded very powerful also gave this little girl living in modern times a certain understanding of this family.

After all, I have watched a lot of TV, right?

However, the negotiation of the government and the Six Caos is equivalent to the current ministerial-level official position at the prime minister level, which is a bit too big... and what surprised Kim Taeyeon even more.

"The old man has been with Mr. Park Chung-hee since the Korean War, from the guard platoon leader to the guard battalion commander."

"After 61 years, Mr. Park Chung-hee originally planned to let the old man be responsible for the work of the Security Bureau, but the old man refused on the grounds of low education and has been serving as the guard of Mr. Park Chung-hee since then."

"After Mr. Park Chung-hee was re-elected in the 1970s, he planned to let his old man work in the Ministry of National Defense, but he was still rejected."

"After 77 years, the old man felt that he was 40 years old, and he was not as energetic as before. He was not suitable for serving as a guard again, so he retreated directly. At that time, the domestic economy was developing very fast and the conditions were much better than before. The old man felt that he could relax, but he didn't expect that such a thing would happen in 79..."

Although neither Kang Zhijian nor Jiang Zhidong said it in detail, Kim Taeyeon still understood from those familiar eras and names.

For the Eastern nations, officials are a very special group, and officials who can reach the heavenly hearing are even more unimaginable to ordinary people.

Just when Kim Taeyeon's little head was in an abnormal state, Kang Jae-hee-jung and the old man were sitting quietly in the study.

Whether in the past or present life, Kang Jae-hee is not unfamiliar with such things as facing a stranger or unfamiliar person. But the person he is facing now is his direct blood relative, but at the same time, he is very unfamiliar. This feeling makes him very uncomfortable. He doesn't even know what kind of sitting posture he should face the old man now.

The silence was not long, and the old man spoke first.

"How do you think of President Park Chung-hee?"

What? I wasn't born when this person died... When he heard this question, Jiang Jae-hee was stunned. He thought that the old man would ask if he hated him for his parents, or he asked how he lived, how his parents were, and how his uncle Jiang Zhijian was like family. But he didn't expect that the first sentence the old man said was to ask a deceased national leader.

After considering it, Kang Jae-hee answered with a very common view among the people.

"Although he has come to power through a coup and is indeed a bit dictatorial, he has made great contributions to South Korea for so many years."

Regardless of how history books or the official evaluate this legendary president, in the minds of the older generation, this president has indeed brought them visible changes. For ordinary people, the regime does not matter. The key is whether this person can really bring actual benefits to the people.

"This is a common opinion. I want to know your own opinion." The old man was a little dissatisfied with Kang Jae-hee's answer and continued to ask.

"Well... no one will deny this economic development. As for the dictatorship, my personal opinion is that in such an environment, iron-blooded skills are still necessary. If the country wants to develop, society must be stable." Through Kang Zhijian, Kang Jae-hee knows the relationship between the old man and the president, so...

"Yes! You're right! The country was so chaotic at that time, and there was no tough person. How could I do the country and develop it!" The old man was very happy when he heard Kang Jae-hee's answer.

The atmosphere was loose.

In the living room, Kim Taeyeon continued to listen to the two elders talking about the past.

"Do you know the Gwangju incident?" Seeing Kim Taeyeon nodding, Kang Zhidong continued: "Jang Jae-hee has a relative uncle who was hit by a stray bullet in that incident because she did not listen to the old man..."

Since I had never heard Kang Jae-hee say it before and had not seen that elder when I came here, Kim Taeyeon knew very well what Kang Ji-dong didn't finish it.

"At that time, Kang Jae-hee's father was still in the middle school. The old man was very strict in his children after that. The high school and university were no different from prison for Kang Jae-hee's father. So after meeting Kang Jae-hee's mother told the old man that she didn't agree, she ran out."

Until now, Kim Taeyeon understood why during the holidays, she would follow her parents to visit her grandfather, while Kang Jae-hee and his parents just stayed at home.

Fortunately, this is not a slap. Kim Taeyeon quickly deleted the story of the male protagonist in the TV series she had seen in her head...

Not long after, Kang Jae-hee walked out with the old man. Kim Taeyeon looked at Kang Jae-hee carefully, and she didn't see anything wrong with her expression, so she felt relieved.

He declined the proposal of the old man to let them stay here for one night. Although Kim Taeyeon lived at Kang Jae-hee's house when she was in Seoul, this time he went back to Kang Jae-hee's ancestral house, staying overnight and visiting were two completely different concepts. Kang Jae-hee was only 18 years old, and Kim Taeyeon was only 16 years old. For modern society, it was really a little smaller...

"How is the environment here?" Kang Jae-hee asked on the way back.

“Very good, very beautiful.”

"Then come here to play when you're fine?"

"Okay, I can come."

It was already evening when I returned. Outside the car window under the setting sun, the monotonous and dazzling white became softer.

Kang Jae-hee didn't ask what Kim Taeyeon knew when she was in the living room, and Kim Taeyeon didn't ask what Kang Jae-hee had talked with the old man. For young people, no matter what they knew, it would not affect their relationship.

However, after today, the trust between them has become deeper.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

After losing habits, I am so lazy...
