Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

After He Hongjun left, Father Lu said to Feng Qingxue, "This man possesses both ambition and ability, and is definitely not an ordinary person."

"Father, how did you see that? Where did you notice it from?" Feng Qingxue was very curious. Isn’t He Hongjun just a normal young man who had stopped by while on the road to seek aid from relatives, extremely down on his luck? His looks and temperament are quite unremarkable.

Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng, both no longer young, looked at Father Lu with questioning eyes asked, "Yes, how did you see that?"

Father Lu smiled and said: "His parents died and he chose to leave home rather than remain under his brother and sister-in-law’s care. This indicates he is decisive and courageous. Many people prefer to starve to death at home than to venture out and seek a new way of life. The fact he didn’t choose to wait for death shows he’s courageous. Moreover, his decision to take care of his childless elderly aunt in Shanghai indicates he’s clever and ambitious. Do we know what Shanghai stands for? There are countless advantages to settling in there. By taking care of his aunt until her death in exchange for a place to stay, he shows he understands the concept of fair exchange, and knows how to strike a chord with human weaknesses while maintaining respect and decency."

Feng Qingxue seemed to be lost in thought, while Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng nodded in agreement. They now understood that Father Lu was teaching them how to judge a person’s character.

"Yes, he’s very clever. I remember something he said now – he always sought help from households that looked good because there was a high chance they would give him food." Guan Cheng suddenly said.
