Literary Master 1978

After dinner, Zhao Li returned to the room and said excitedly: "I never thought that Chaoyang, who usually keeps quiet, could write and publish novels, and it is so popular!"

Tao Yucheng sighed: "Yes, who could have thought of it?"

Sensing the frustration in his tone, Zhao Li held his hand, "You are not bad either."

It would have been fine if she hadn't said it, but Tao Yucheng felt even worse when she said it.

"Wife, Chaoyang only has a junior high school education, and it seems that he has never written any novels before. How come he has made such a big name all of a sudden?"

Zhao Li comforted: "Everyone has different strengths. His strength may be writing novels?"

"What about me?" Tao Yucheng asked expectantly.

Zhao Li pondered for a moment, "Treat?"

Tao Yucheng's face was full of grief and indignation, "Have you forgotten the love poems I wrote to you when we were in love?"

"The past was the past, and now is now." Zhao Li muttered.

Tao Yucheng glared at his wife, women are really fickle!

"Hey, did you notice Mom's reaction?" Zhao Li asked.

"What's wrong with mom? Do you still expect her to look at Chaoyang differently?"

"Why not? Chaoyang is now a famous writer anyway."

When it comes to business, Tao Yucheng's expression also became serious, and he shook his head.

"How can it be that easy? Mom has been holding back a grudge."

"What grudge?"

"You won't understand even if I tell you."

Zhao Li thought he was keeping her in suspense, but Tao Yucheng shook his head and said nothing, with an unfathomable look on his face.

"You are just being mysterious, so forget it!"

Just as the two were talking, in the room of Tao's father and mother next door.

Tao's mother was leaning against the bedside reading a book with her reading glasses. Tao's father had just changed his clothes and was about to go to bed. He looked at his wife and hesitated to speak.

"Ruohui!" Tao's father called out a name that he would only call when they were together.

Tao's mother seemed to be absorbed in reading and did not notice his voice.

But Tao's father understood her. He confiscated Tao's mother's book. Tao's mother said impatiently, "What?"

"Let's talk." Tao's father went to bed.

Tao's mother turned her back. She had guessed what her husband wanted to say and didn't give him a chance to speak.

"Alas! I know you are angry." Tao's father gently stroked her shoulder. "It's true that Chaoyang was born in the countryside and has a low education, but have you ever thought about why the child can achieve such results in such a short time?"

After waiting for a while, seeing that Tao's mother didn't respond, Tao's father continued to talk to himself, "Yushu is our daughter. You love her and I love her too. We all hope for her well. She married Chaoyang, and life was a little difficult at the beginning, but if the couple can support each other step by step and go to the end, it may not be a bad thing."

"Sometimes I also wonder, in your heart, how much anger is directed at Chaoyang?

Did this child suffer from the fate we experienced in the past few years and that era?"

After saying this, Tao's father saw that his wife still didn't respond, sighed, and stopped persuading.

The next morning, Lin Chaoyang secretly observed Tao's mother's reaction while eating breakfast.

After leaving the house, he asked, "Your mother's attitude doesn't seem to have changed?"

"She just wants to save face." Tao Yushu kicked the bicycle stand open and said to Lin Chaoyang while walking.

"Now, you don't need to care about her attitude. Instead, you should care about your next work. As long as you have more and more works and become more and more famous in the future, she won't dare to do anything even if she doesn't like you."

Although he knew that Tao Yushu was trying to comfort him, Lin Chaoyang felt that she was taking the opportunity to put pressure on him.

"Wife, I just finished writing a novel and haven't published it yet." Lin Chaoyang complained.

Tao Yushu was exposed by him, and she took his arm and rubbed it back and forth, "I didn't say you should write now, but just let you have time to think about it. The work in the library is so idle."

"Comrade college students, the division of labor in revolutionary work is different. Your task is to study, but you can't look down on our work in the library."

Lin Chaoyang pretended to be serious, which caused Tao Yushu's pink fist.

The popularity of "Unnamed Lake" in Yanda seemed to accelerate the spread of Lin Chaoyang's hidden identity.

In less than two days, everyone in the library knew that Professor Tao's son-in-law, Lin Chaoyang, a young man working at the closed-shelf lending desk, was Xu Lingjun, the author of the popular novel "The Horse Herder" some time ago.

Lin Chaoyang had to face the good-natured teasing of his colleagues at work, and of course, the malicious speculation and ridicule in private.

Laugh at people who have nothing, hate people who have something, dislike people who are poor, and resent people who are rich. This is human nature.

Another morning, when Lin Chaoyang was about to walk to the library, he saw Old Zhu running again, with a golden retriever - A Mao following him.

Not far away, Lin Chaoyang clearly saw A Mao chattering to the old man while running, and the old man looked impatient.

Lin Chaoyang couldn't help laughing at this scene. What does it mean that evil people will be punished by evil people? This is it.

Old Zhu has a poisonous mouth, but when he meets A Mao who is completely immune to his magic attacks, he can't do anything.

The most annoying thing is that A Mao can still torture Old Zhu with his half-baked Chinese.

This time, Old Zhu is at a loss.

Lin Chaoyang watched the old man stop and walk towards him angrily, just about to say hello to him.

"What kind of nonsense did you instill in him?" Zhu Guangqian questioned.

Lin Chaoyang almost went up to cover the old man's mouth, "Don't dare talk nonsense!"

He whispered again: "Didn't I tell you? Mao Xuan!"

Only then did the old man realize, "I didn't mean that. I mean, is this guy mentally abnormal? He told me early in the morning that he wanted to cause trouble, occupy the stronghold, fight against the rich, and divide the land. And he asked me to be his military advisor!”

"Political commissar, political commissar!" Amao corrected as he ran over.

Don't tell me, these two words are a rare standard accent in Amao's bulk Chinese.

Lin Chaoyang advised: "Amao, now is New China. We have already done everything in the book and won."

“It’s not done in China, it’s done in the United States!”

Good guy!

Lin Chaoyang looked at Amao with admiration. Have you never experienced McCarthy's beating?

Just as Lin Chaoyang was about to speak, he saw Amao take out the hammer and sickle badges from his pocket, said goodbye to his chest, looked solemnly, and looked ahead, "The great leader taught us..."

Seeing Amao's half-crazy, half-demon look, Zhu Guangqian ran away in fear of being blackmailed by him. He probably wouldn't see him near the library in a short time.

"Amao, have you ever heard of an ancient Chinese saying?"

Boss Zhu ran away, and Lin Chaoyang still had to clean up the mess.

"What?"

"Sit down and try your courage!"

"What's the meaning?"

"It probably means...do you understand?"

Amao's face was serious, "I understand, you asked me to accumulate strength and wait for a good time."

"Just waiting is not enough. The road of revolution is full of twists and turns, and you must have the spirit of perseverance and invulnerability. It is this spirit that you lack now.

As the saying goes, when heaven assigns a great responsibility to a person, he must first work hard on his mind and body...

You may not understand this well, but it probably means that if you want to do great things, you must first hone your body and spirit. "

Amao thought thoughtfully, "So the most important thing for me now is...exercise?"

Lin Chaoyang clapped his hands, "Yes! That's the truth."

It's a lie, I understand.

"I run every morning."

"No, no, no, this is not enough. Do you know about Chinese Kung Fu?"

Amao's eyes lit up when he heard this, "I know, I know. Before I came to China, I also watched Bruce Lee's movie, Chinese Kung Fu, newbee!"

It turns out that you can't learn well by sticking to Lao Zhu's head, and "newbee" has learned it.

"Kung Fu pays attention to practicing Sanjiu in winter and Sanfu in summer. Let me tell you..."

After spending a long time, Lin Chaoyang finally fooled Amao away.

Looking at his confident and striding back, Lin Chaoyang felt an inexplicable feeling of guilt in his heart.

This kid is so real!

Forget it, it’s up to me to let him see the dangers of society first!
