1980 My literary era

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, there is a barbecue restaurant in front of the main entrance of Yan Normal University.

Today's party was organized by Yu Hua, and the barbecue restaurant was opened. He felt proud that the poor suddenly became rich, and he couldn't help but want to show off.

His barbecue restaurant was opened after New Year's Day, and it has been less than a month since it was fully booked.

Lin Weimin has tasted the taste of the barbecue in the store, and it's hard to describe it in words.

But what people didn’t expect was that business was pretty good in the first month.

Therefore, Yu Hua scoffed at Lin Weimin's comments when he first opened the business. Facts have proved that Teacher Lin does not know everything.

However, it is understandable that people make mistakes and horses stumble, but it does not affect the glorious image of Teacher Lin in his heart.

Today is the third day of the Lunar New Year, and everyone in the store is on holiday. Yu Hua invited everyone to come to the party, and everyone prepared the food themselves. Fortunately, he had all the things, so it didn't take much trouble.

When he came to the barbecue restaurant, the Northeastern gene in Lin Weimin's heart awakened and he became the BBQ chef today.

When the first mutton skewers were grilled, Lin Weimin handed them to Shi Tiesheng, "Tiesheng, try it!"

"Hmm~ It tastes good!"

Shi Tiesheng spoke highly of it after tasting it. He is a carnivore. Although he has not dared to eat meat as much as before due to physical reasons in recent years, he cannot hide his hobby.

Lin Weimin was quite proud and passed it to others around him, "Come on, let's all have a try!"

Liu Zhenyun took the mutton skewers and finished them in two bites. He gathered around Lin Weimin and said, "Teacher Lin, what are your expectations for this beef?"

"I think it would be nice if it could survive." Lin Weimin said silently.

Liu Zhenyun loves to dig holes in others when talking, and friends around him have long been accustomed to his way of speaking, but when meeting Lin Weimin, his cleverness is usually not easy to use.

When the people around him heard Lin Weimin's words, they couldn't help laughing. Liu Zhenyun was stunned, but he was not discouraged and continued: "I heard that the ingredients in chicken wings are very important to chefs."

Lin Weimin nodded and continued: "Yes, this is evidence that they once soared in the sky."

The crowd burst into laughter again, and Liu Zhenyun's face turned bitter.

Stop playing. Teacher Lin is too smooth-talking and he can't fight.

"If you want food, you need food. Why are you doing so many odds and ends?"

Lin Weimin scolded him and handed him another hand of mutton skewers.

Liu Zhenyun didn't care about Lin Weimin's reprimand, and happily took the mutton skewers, and then he didn't forget to say: "Your craftsmanship is much better than the chefs in Yu Hua's store."

Yu Hua, who was busy cooking over there, was unhappy when he heard this, "Who said that? Zhenyun, you can't lose the character of a scholar just to order food!"

Liu Zhenyun licked his lips and said, "What I said is very factual. If you don't believe me, just ask everyone."

Yu Hua muttered: "Everyone knows how to flatter everyone."

He didn't ask anyone, but walked over by himself, took the last skewer of mutton skewers from Liu Zhenyun's hand and stuffed it into his mouth.

Chewing slowly, a look of unwillingness gradually appeared on his face.

"It's just... average!"

Yu Hua finished eating the meat, took a bite of the stick and said.

Everyone looked at him with a bit of amusement on their faces. If you didn't sign when you said this, your credibility would be higher.

Mo Yan finished the meat skewers in his hand with a blank look on his face, "It's indeed better than your chef's."

As soon as Yu Hua tried his best, Mo Yan stabbed him in the back and glared at him fiercely. Mo Yan didn't care at all and squatted next to Lin Weimin's barbecue stall, quietly waiting for the next batch of kebabs to come out of the oven, just like at home. The Chow Chow is waiting to be fed by its owner.

Yu Hua couldn't help but spat at Mo Yan, "Flattery!"

This mouthful is full of stubbornness and uprightness.

Lin Weimin glanced at him, and a flattering smile immediately appeared on his righteous face, "Teacher Lin, your kebabs taste really good."

Seeing his performance, everyone burst into laughter again.

The barbecue shop is full of joyful atmosphere.

Being a barbecue chef is a very hard job. Not only do you have to endure the poison of oil fumes all the time, but you also have to endure the pressure of many diners staring at you.

Lin Weimin roasted for an hour, but the number of people watching beside him did not decrease at all. Instead, there were more and more people. They were like chickens waiting to be fed, barely opening their mouths to wait for Lin Weimin to feed him.

He put down the barbecue rack and said, "No more grilling, Yu Hua, you can do it!"

He sat aside and drank hot tea, watching everyone continue to surround Yu Hua.

"Hey, I'm going to give you a taste of my cooking today. I'm telling you, I learned all this from the chef. I guarantee you'll think twice after taking one bite."

Yu Hua was grilling and sizzling. After a while, the fresh skewers came out of the oven. Everyone shook their heads after eating.

Compared with Teacher Lin, it’s far behind!

Everyone laughed and laughed at his craftsmanship. Yu Hua was furious and muttered: "You guys are a bunch of sycophants!"

Lin Weimin took a few sips of tea and came to the area where the children were playing.

Today everyone came with their wives and children. Except for a few lesbians who were busy preparing for the banquet, everyone else was gathered here.

Yu Haiguo from the Yu Hua family is half a year younger than Xiaodou Bao. He is a chubby little boy in his early three years and looks easy to bully.

Except for the two children who were still in kindergarten, most of the other children present were already in elementary school or even junior high school. These children played together without them.

Xiaodoubao has the character of a big sister and enjoys the feeling of having someone under her. She walks in front with her hands behind her back, and Yu Haiguo follows her step by step, giving her a sense of familiarity as if a big boss is out on the street.

Xiao Dou Bao was walking in front, and she seemed to think of something and stopped. However, Yu Haiguo behind her didn't react and bumped into Xiao Dou Bao's back.

Even though he was fat, he was a soft and glutinous ball of flesh. After bumping into the little bean bag, he leaned over, but the little bean bag only swayed. She turned around and saw Yu Haiguo's embarrassed look, and let out a giggle. laughter.

Yu Haiguo fell to the ground and didn't cry. Seeing Xiao Doubao laughing, he also let out a few silly giggles.

Lin Weimin smiled and said to Cheng Hong, "This child of yours has such a good character."

"What's the matter? You're stupid." Cheng Hong complained about her son without any mercy. It was obvious that he was her biological child. She added: "It's better for you to have a little baby bag. The child will grow up as you please." The best of both worlds, the more you look at them, the better they look.”

Tao Huimin glanced at Xiaodoubao, who was still laughing at Yu Haiguo, "Oh, look at her character, she looks like a tomboy. I'm really afraid that I won't be able to get married in the future."

Cheng Hong laughed, "If such a beautiful girl cannot get married, those young men may be blind."

The adults chatted enthusiastically and the children laughed happily.

In the barbecue shop, the atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant, and the years are quiet.

Before the Spring Festival holiday was about to end, Lin Weimin went to visit an old acquaintance.

So when I retired from the entertainment industry in 1992, I originally planned to give up my role as the director so that I could finally enjoy a few good years on the stage.

But he never expected that he would suffer from Alzheimer's disease.

In fact, everything was foreshadowed. Before retiring in 1992, Su Zhi forgot his lyrics on stage when performing "Teahouse". It was Lan Tianye who played Qin Erye who quickly made up for his mistakes, so there was no performance accident. Nor did he notice his mistake. This kind of mistake is unimaginable for Su Zhi, who has played Wang Lifa all his life.

In the past few years, Su Zhi's memory has gradually declined and his reactions have become slower.

Since Su Zhi's retirement, Lin Weimin has had much less contact with him. This time it was also during the Chinese New Year that Li Guangfu came to pay New Year's greetings, and he learned about Su Zhi's current situation.

When he arrived at Yu Zhi's home, Feng Yuanzheng, He Bing, Ding Zhicheng and others also came to wish Yu Zhi New Year's greetings.

"teacher LIN!"

The Five Tigers of the 85th Class of Humanities and Art saw that Lin Weimin could only stand and talk and said hello. Lin Weimin waved to several people and said, "Sit down, I am the same as you today. We are all here to see Dean Yu." .”

He greeted a few people and then said to him, "Lao Yu, are you sick?"

So he was in good condition at the moment, and when he saw Lin Weimin, he had a wry smile on his face.

"I'm sick. It's all my fault for acting in the drama!"

He still had the intention to joke, which proved that his thinking was still very clear at this moment.

He said that his illness was caused by acting in a drama, which meant talking too much.

Lin Weimin smiled and said: "Who asked you to play the leading role all day long? If you played more minor roles, maybe you wouldn't have this problem."

After a few jokes, So Zhi chatted with Lin Weimin for a few minutes, and then looked at him and suddenly calmed down.

"Teacher Lin? Why are you here?"

Lin Weimin was stunned for a moment, knowing that this was probably an illness. He smiled and replied, "I'll come over and see you!"

"Some comrades in the hospital still have some opinions on the script of "Farewell My Concubine"!" Souzhi sighed.

Lin Weimin looked back on the past, and then said: "I understand the opinions of the teachers in the hospital. But the good thing about this play is that we want to change it. If it is really changed, it will be useless. In that case, I would rather not Modify. My opinion is, either don’t upload it, or don’t change a word!”

Souzhi's face showed a bit of sadness, "Are you free? How about we go talk to Mr. Wan."

"Okay!" Lin Weimin smiled.

At this time, a narrow smile appeared on Su Zhi's face, "How is it? My memory is pretty good, right?"

Lin Weimin suddenly realized that he was pretending to be sick just now. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You are sick, but your skills have not diminished at all, and are even better than before."

So Zhi was a little proud when he heard this, "That's right, I have been acting for half my life. In "Teahouse" alone, I have performed more than 400 performances."

"Haha, I think you're in good condition. If your physical condition permits, it wouldn't be a bad idea to go to the hospital and do some extra work!"

"Let's see if there is a suitable opportunity." Su Zhi responded with a smile and asked: "Hey, when will your script of "Horse Trapper" be sent over?"

Lin Weimin looked into Yu Zhi's eyes and stared at him for a few seconds. Seeing his calm eyes, he said, "I'm just writing it. You didn't push me so much. I haven't even published my novel yet, so I'm writing a script for you Renyi."

"Hehe, aren't you thinking about getting a new play this year? When the new play comes, I'll treat you to dinner."

"This is what you said, let's go to Donglaishun!"

"As long as the east is coming, let's call a few more people."

"You are still as heroic as the dean!"

…

When Lin Weimin left, Sonzhi was still discussing the script and rehearsal matters of "Horse Trapper" with him.

After the door closed, Lin Weimin's smiling face fell down, and there was a bit of sadness in his eyes.

The five people who came out of Shizhi's house with him saw that he was silent and didn't dare to say anything.

Lin Weimin calmed down his emotions and said to several people relaxedly: "Why are you thinking about visiting Lao Yu today?"

He Bing replied: "We just heard that the dean is a bit seriously ill, so we came here to take a look."

"You...are thoughtful." Lin Weimin praised.

Several people waved their hands, and He Bing said again: "Teacher Lin, thank you."

"no need thank me?"

"Zhicheng acted in "A Romantic Affair" and I acted in "Party A and Party B", thanks to you."

Lin Weimin shook his head, "People and art make actors. If you use your talents to act in movies and TV series, your talents will be overused."

He Bing and others expressed their gratitude to Lin Weimin, chatted for a few words and left.

Lin Weimin looked at their backs, with only one sentence echoing in his mind.

A generation will eventually grow old, but there will always be people who are young.
