After meeting Nixon, Gao Xian did not leave St. clement in a hurry, but stayed.
First, to continue to communicate with Nixon, who was at the bottom of his life, in order to consolidate their "new" friendship; Second, to facilitate taking over Nixon's staff.
The handover of this resource in front of the old owner and the new owner is still very ceremonial, and even reminds Gao Xian of the picture in the film The Godfather.
Since Patricia Hurst became her submissive little servant because of Stockholm syndrome, Gao Xian has a few more respects for the mysterious human psychology.
Therefore, Gao Xian was very serious about this link, and even showed the humility of being unconcerned in Nixon.
In addition, St. clement is a holy land for surfing, so Gao Xian can exchange feelings with these newly defected American elites by learning and playing.
Nixon, who had been nestled in St. clement, seemed calm. In fact, he was waiting for whether the guillotine on his head would really fall, that is, whether the criminal prosecution against him would really happen.
Finally, the current American President Ford made a compromise, no longer insisted that Nixon issue a statement of repentance, and officially announced on television that Nixon would be granted an amnesty, that is, an unconditional and complete amnesty for any crimes that Nixon committed or might commit during his presidency, thus ensuring that Nixon could not be prosecuted again.
In his speech to the national television broadcasting of the United States, Ford said with great responsibility that he felt that this amnesty was the best for national interests, because the situation of the Nixon family was "The American Tragedy in which we all participate. It will never end unless someone writes an end. I realize that only I can do it. If I can, I must do it."
While granting Nixon amnesty, Ford also introduced a conditional amnesty for those who hid in Canada and other countries to escape military service in the Vietnam War. It can be regarded as a slightly disguised equality for all.
After Ford highly announced the amnesty, Nixon issued a statement: my fault is that I did not deal with Watergate more decisively and frankly, especially when things have developed to the stage of judicial proceedings and escalated from the Zhengzhi scandal to a national tragedy. No words can describe the impact of my mistakes in Watergate on the country and the presidency I love this country so much and respect this institution so much.
Political leaders are political leaders. Nixon finally did not admit what crimes he had committed in the Watergate incident.
Of course, Ford's amnesty to Nixon caused a strong debate, and even a conspiracy theory appeared, that is, the amnesty was a "corrupt deal" between Ford and Nixon, which Ford exchanged for Nixon's resignation and became the president of the United States.
In Gao Xian's view, Zhengzhi is a matter from imbalance to balance. Up to now, the "Watergate incident" has become a key chip in this year's mid-term elections in the United States. If competitors do not come up with an attack, they are hardly qualified to mix in this circle.
For example, Hillary Clinton, one of the potential stocks of American governance that Gao Xian has been secretly concerned about, grabbed Nixon's amnesty and jumped to attack President Ford, amusing Gao Xian. Nixon's "Watergate incident" is always more important than Clinton's "zipper door" in the "old script".
In any case, the Watergate incident basically ended and became Nixon's unbearable past.
Nixon, who was under less pressure, was no longer healthy, so he had to start preparing for phlebitis surgery.
Gao Xian is not really a filial son and grandchildren. He has to stay by Nixon's side all the time. There are other things waiting for him to deal with outside, so he leaves after saying goodbye.
As for the contract for the business speech, Nixon still returned it to Gao Xian with dignity because he could not perform it because of his current health. In addition, according to the practice of the former American president, after moving out of the White House and returning to his home, he should start writing his memoirs.
Gao Xian only smiled at this, because he estimated that Nixon's economic situation would become embarrassed in not too long.
Although Nixon completely disbanded his staff team, his health and living standards were still a lot of expenses, especially lawsuits.
Because he was forced to step down, when Nixon moved out of the White House, some documents that should have belonged to him could not be brought out, and the US Congress instructed President Ford to withhold these documents.
From the perspective of ordinary people, it is difficult to understand the value and significance of these documents. As a ruling family, Nixon, even for the sake of the least dignity, had to return these documents in the form of ruling assets as the historical evidence of his once serving as president of the United States.
Even hearsay can tell how expensive it is to file a lawsuit in the United States. Nixon doesn't have oil at home like Bush. It's strange that he doesn't sit around.
So, in private, Gao Xian gave Nixon's eldest son-in-law Edward Cox the contract for the business speech and told him to contact himself if he needed anything.
……
Now that he has come to the United States, Gao Xian must have an in-depth spiritual and physical communication with his little maid Patricia Hearst, not to mention now that he has arrived in California.
When she saw Patricia hurst, who was pregnant in July, Gao Xian was startled. Does her stomach seem a little big?
Patricia Hearst said happily, "honey, I'm giving you a surprise. I'm pregnant with twins. Of course, my stomach looks a little big."
"Is it because of this?" Gao Xian gently touched Patricia Hurst's stomach, felt the powerful fetal movement, and couldn't help thinking, "it seems that it was so crazy that there were a lot of seeds."
……
While giving psychological counseling courses to Patricia hurst, Gao Xian also handled some business affairs, mainly in the fields of Finance and oil. As for personal computers and game consoles, he was too lazy to ask more because it was still a seedling.
Then Gao Xian left for his home in Toronto, Canada. It's not a short time to go out this time. It's more than two months, and it's still after getting married. You must report it to your wife.
Yi Huirong handed Gao Xian a glass of lemon juice and asked with a smile, "look at your refreshing appearance. This business trip must have been fruitful."
After taking a sip of lemon juice, Gao Xian felt unbearably sour, but he didn't dare to comment. He quietly put it on the table and replied with a smile: "it's really rich. In short, he asked for money in Tehran and received people in Nixon."
Yi Huirong skillfully added a spoonful of sugar to the glass of lemon juice, and then reminded her husband from the perspective of virtuous internal help, "I heard that Nixon and his aides who survived the Watergate incident have extremely poor reputation in the United States. You are not afraid of being implicated with these people?"
"I'm afraid of a hair." Gao Xian said with disdain: "I use the talents of these people. Besides, their current reputation on the smelly street is only from the perspective of Watergate. After this year's mid-term elections in the United States, all kinds of noise will disappear. You see, those who stand at the right commanding height of Zhengzhi and hiss the most, if they get on the stage, they will often be even worse."
Yi Huirong said angrily, "your current status is not ordinary. How can you be so cynical?"
Gao Xian smiled and said, "why should I hide my true feelings when I shut the door in front of my wife? Of course I will try my best to restrain myself when I wait outside."
Yi Huirong just wanted to say something, suddenly frowned, picked up her handkerchief, covered her mouth, retched, and walked quickly to the bathroom.
The self combing aunt who brought up Yi Huirong from childhood quickly trotted after hearing the news.
Gao Xian, who stood up, stopped, touched his chin and thought to himself, "my real wife, is there a? Counting up, the first wife has children the latest."
Sure enough, Yi Huirong returned to her seat and told her husband, "I forgot to tell you that I was pregnant for more than two months. The doctor's examination results were very normal, but the reaction during pregnancy was a little big."
After confirming his guess, Gao Xian said happily, "great, you must pay attention to rest and don't bother. Alas, we have children. This villa is a little small. I have to build a manor."
Yi Huirong rolled her eyes. "How many do you want me to have?"
Gao Xian took his wife's hand, put it on his face, and said with a smile, "let it be... What you say... The kind of rum made by Dominica is really good..."
"Look, you are so happy that you are incoherent." Yi Huirong touched her husband's angular face and said slowly, "I can't accompany you to the mainland this time. My mother won't let you walk around, and her old man will come and take care of me herself soon."
Gao Xian nodded again and again. "Your mother-in-law is right. You can keep your baby in Canada honestly. I'll go to Yanjing alone."
Yi Huirong continued: "after all, it's your first time to go to Yanjing. You'll see a lot of Chinese senior executives. There's still a considerate person around you who can check and make up for deficiencies. Let Liang Xin accompany you. She is now deeply trusted and valued by the mainland."
Upon hearing this, the sour taste left in Gao Xian's mouth suddenly turned into a strong bitter taste, "no, really, it's enough for me to go to Yanjing alone."
Yi Huirong said softly, "don't be nervous. I don't mean anything else. After the kidnapping storm, I also want to open up. As long as you are here and everything is well, otherwise, what's the point of contention? Liang Xin is really the best person to accompany you to Yanjing."
Gao Xian is not a young man who is new to love. He won't take Yi Huirong's words seriously and continue to refuse solemnly.
Yi Huirong wrung her husband's face angrily. "Anyway, I said all the suggestions that should be put forward. Whether to adopt them or not, you should weigh them by yourself."
"If I really adopt it on the spot, I must be cold." he whispered in his heart, made great efforts to move the world, changed the topic and said: "this business trip unknowingly missed the opening time of Xiangjiang University. After returning to Xiangjiang, I have to hurry up to report."
Yi Huirong nodded. "I've asked Qiwen to say hello for you. There's no need to be embarrassed. Just write and hand in the paper seriously."
……
When Gao Xian left his home in Toronto, Canada, he didn't worry too much about his wife's life during pregnancy, because when they got married, the Yi family sent almost all the supplies and servants Yi Huirong used to in Xiangjiang, such as the self combing aunt and driver Uncle Li.
What's more, Gao Xian's mother-in-law has come to Toronto, Canada from Xiangjiang to take care of her daughter herself.
When I arrived at Gaoxian in Xiangjiang, I couldn't help feeling a little numb when I saw Ma Qiwen welcoming herself. In particular, I heard the other party say again: "brother Gaoxian, I've finished the admission procedures for Xiangjiang University for you."
"By the way, I also went to Xiangjiang university to study for a master's degree. We are alumni. Hee hee, I can stare at you by the way, so as not to get involved."
The high string said repeatedly on his mouth, but he muttered in his heart. Is this the arrangement of his wife's adult again?
In fact, how could Gao Xian not understand the horse daughter's intention for herself? The little sister had worshipped herself. After the kidnapping storm, she became more uncontrollable and obsessed with herself.
To tell the truth, as a man, Gao Xianting enjoys this kind of happiness.
Yi Huirong's love for Gao Xian includes nurturing, spoiling and so on; Liang Xin can be called Gao Xian's congenial confidant; Patricia Hearst, who has become a submissive little maid because of Stockholm syndrome, can meet the desires of men with some dark tendencies; Ma Qiwen's admiration for Gao Xian is pure and beautiful
In short, Gao Xian is not a saint. He is really a little addicted.
After getting on the bus, Gao Xian clearly felt the soft touch passed by Ma Qiwen holding her arm. She couldn't help laughing bitterly and said, "Qiwen, your father will break my leg when he sees us like this."
Ma Qiwen said foolishly, "my father can't control it. I'd like to!"
Gao Xian turned his eyes to the outside of the car and couldn't help thinking that now it seems that the kidnapping storm six months ago not only convinced David Rockefeller and Nixon that his victim's firm opposition to left-wing ideas, but also made his inner house peaceful, and suddenly completely captured the psychological defense line of four women.
He glanced at Ma Qiwen, who leaned carefree on his shoulder. Gao Xian was a big head again. He had close business relations with Ma Jingxi and made friends with Ma Yongda. As a result, he made the Ma family's daughter like this. How can it end!
