Save the Bachelor of Heaven

It is worth mentioning that from the time he went to college in 1978 to now, all the people Xiang Nan has engaged in, together, there is not one battalion, but three companies.

For young people of this era, Xiang Nan's status is like that of the top class 40 years later, not to mention how popular he is. Because of this, he has almost never missed a girl.

In comparison, Chunming was much worse.

Although he and Su Meng were admitted to the same university, the relationship between Su Meng and him is not that close.

For one thing, although Chunming was admitted to university, he didn't pay much attention to dressing, and wore tattered clothes all day long. And although full of talent, his speech and demeanor are always a little frivolous.

But Su Meng is a very vain person, seeing him so slovenly and sloppy, he is not very happy. In addition, her roommates laughed at Chunming even though he was from Yanjing, but he didn't dress decently like their provincials.

So Su Meng had an opinion on him and raised it with Chunming several times. But Chunming got used to dressing like this, and it was really not easy to dress up, so Su Meng became more and more dissatisfied with him, and she didn't want to be with him anymore.

Secondly, Chunming studied archaeology, while Su Meng studied pedagogy. At that time, there was no antique craze, so archeology was not taken seriously.

Chunming also often accompanied the teacher to conduct cultural relic surveys in the field. They are covered in dirt on sunny days and mud on rainy days, more down-to-earth than farmers. Su Meng naturally also has opinions.

So after going back and forth, the two got into a stalemate again.

Knowing this, Xiang Nan didn't persuade him any more.

Anyway, this is also the fate of the two of them, what they love has nothing to do with him.

...

In 1980, 1981, and until 1982, Xiang Nan was mainly engaged in creation.

In terms of novels, excellent works such as "Conspiracy", "The Gate of the Mansion", "Crossing the Guandong", "Red Sorghum", "White Deer Plain", "The Criminal of the Great Song Dynasty" and so on, one after another.

In terms of drama, there are also many works such as "The No. 1 Building in the World", "Raise the Red Lantern", and "The Stage".

He was so prolific that the critics were amazed.

Moreover, Xiang Nan's writing themes are also very comprehensive, from the earliest educated youth themes, to anti-special themes, historical themes, detective themes, military themes, biographical themes, almost everything can be afforded and put down.

Therefore, the critics are increasingly appraising him, saying that he is one of the most outstanding writers in contemporary China.

Therefore, in 1981, in the first Mao Dun Literature Award, Xiang Nan's "Wreath under the Mountain" was included, along with Wei Wei's "Oriental", Yao Xueyin's "Li Zicheng", Gu Hua's " Hibiscus Town" and so on.

"A Blizzard Tonight" created by him also won the National Excellent Novella Award. It can be said that Xiang Nan is already a well-known figure in the literary world.

Because of this, when Xiang Nan graduated from University in 1982, countless units offered him olive branches. The names are all scary big. What shocked Xiang Nan the most was that there were still several national brands.

However, after consideration, Xiang Nan finally decided to stay in school.

First, the officialdom is too deep, and there are too many constraints. For him, a free life is better. Second, staying in school as a teacher has easy work and a noble status. If you enter, you can enter the political arena, if you retire, you can resign and go to sea, and there are more choices.

Just like Gao Yuliang in "In the Name of the People", it is only a step away from the head of the Department of Political Science and Law of Handong University to the party in power.

...

Xiang Nan chose to stay at Peking University to teach, which surprised many people.

Because according to his reputation, as long as he is in politics, at least he starts as a section chief, he is promoted to the deputy department in two years, and he is promoted to the deputy department in three years. It is very possible to be promoted to a high-ranking official in one's lifetime.

But she chose to stay in school to teach, which is really puzzling.

Cheng Baoguo and Feng Aihong persuaded him to change his mind.

"Son, men are afraid of entering the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. Once you choose this job, you can't change it later." Cheng Baoguo persuaded, "Being a teacher is less comfortable than being an official?"

"That's right, son, don't make a mistake." Feng Aihong also persuaded, "What kind of power does a teacher have, but he only manages dozens of children. It's better to be an official, at least he can take charge of one party."

Xiang Nan waved his hands, "Dad, Mom, being an official has great power, but also great responsibility. Although I am famous, I am liked by many people. But the bright ones are easy to get dirty, and the dirty ones are easy to break. The higher you stand, the harder you fall , how many people wish me bad luck.

What I study is literature, not politics. In terms of mind, I am no match for those people. If I'm not careful, I may be ruined. But being a teacher is different. They are relaxed, comfortable, and want to say whatever they want, and they have to give me some face.

Just like the Donglin Party in the Ming Dynasty, it seemed that they were not officials, but they were actually more powerful than officials. "

When Cheng Baoguo and Feng Aihong heard what he said, they also felt that it made sense.

His son is now radiant and famous, and he attracts attention wherever he is placed. But in fact, being an official requires keeping a low profile and keeping a low profile.

If you perform too prominently, your superiors, colleagues, and subordinates will all feel pressure. At that time, a cold arrow will come from nowhere. In comparison, the campus environment is much simpler and safer.

So they all nodded and stopped trying to persuade their son to change his mind.

...

Xiang Nan chose to stay in school, and Chunming chose to join the archaeological team. Influenced by Mr. Guan, he has a strong interest in literature, antiques, history and culture. Archeology was right in his way.

Su Meng chose to work in the Education Bureau. She learns education, and her parents are also teachers, so she is destined to eat education.

After Cai Xiaoli graduated, she joined the Chongwen District Finance Bureau.

After graduating from university, Xiang Nan made a fuss about getting married, which moved Cai Xiaoli very much.

During the four years of college, she had very few opportunities to meet Xiang Nan. She originally thought that he would not love her anymore because of getting together less and leaving more.

In addition, in the past four years, Xiang Nan's reputation has been getting higher and higher year by year, which also made her feel ashamed and unworthy of others. But she didn't expect that he was willing to marry her, which made her really overjoyed.

"Jianjun, are you really willing to marry me?" She asked in surprise.

"What are you talking about, of course I would like to marry you." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Xiaoli, marry me."

Cai Xiaoli nodded with tears in her eyes, feeling really happy.

Later, Xiang Nan mentioned this matter to his parents.

When they heard that their son was going to marry Cai Xiaoli, and when they heard about her conditions, Cheng Baoguo and Feng Aihong objected again.

With Xiang Nan's current fame and status, it is more than enough to be assigned to the children of cadres at the bureau level.

But Cai Xiaoli's family background is average, and she is only a member of the Finance Bureau. Such conditions are really not worthy of her son.

"Son, if you choose carefully, there are plenty of good girls, why do you have to marry her?" Cheng Baoguo persuaded.

"That's right, son, there are many girls chasing you. If you choose again, there will always be someone more suitable than her." Feng Aihong also persuaded.

"Dad, Mom, marrying a wife and marrying a good man, the most important thing in marrying a wife is not her identity, status, or background, and I can't afford to rely on my wife to get ahead.

The key is to marry a good wife and mother, be able to care for husband and teach children, and be filial to parents-in-law. Xiaoli is good, I can't choose wrong. "Xiang Nan waved his hand.

Seeing their son's insistence, the old couple had no choice but to nod. After all, their son has already accomplished something, and they can't control it if they want to.
