Literary Master 1978

Tonight, Lin Chaoyang changed his state a while ago and sat at the desk, writing quickly and non-stop.

When he went to bed, Tao Yushu asked him: "I see you wrote a lot tonight."

"Yeah, I'm full of inspiration!"

Full of inspiration!

He had been slacking off before, and it happened that Liu Xinwu's door-to-door commission gave him a boost today. He felt that the progress was almost stretched, so he sped up.

"Creation is like this. At the beginning, you always need some deep thinking, just straighten out your ideas."

Although Tao Yushu usually puts pressure on Lin Chaoyang, he also pays attention to his creative state and communicates with him from time to time.

On Sunday, his brother-in-law Du Feng, who hadn't seen him for more than half a month, came again.

Lin Chaoyang thought he was looking for him to "polish" his love letter again, and the two greeted each other enthusiastically.

"How is your girlfriend going?"

Du Feng smiled and said nothing.

"Give you a few more love letters?"

"No need." Du Feng waved his hand.

Lin Chaoyang thought he had found his girlfriend, but Du Feng said, "Brother-in-law, I'm going to Yunnan soon."

"Yunnan is great, the four seasons are like..."

Lin Chaoyang stopped talking, he reacted and looked at his brother-in-law.

"Going to Yunnan?"

Du Feng nodded casually, "The battle on the front line is raging, and we, the group of art soldiers, can't just sit there and eat, right?"

"When are we leaving?" Lin Chaoyang asked.

"The day after tomorrow."

"So soon?"

"I was exiled by my dad." Du Feng smiled bitterly and told the truth.

"What do you mean?"

"The captain found out about my relationship."

Lin Chaoyang asked, "I'm not a student, what's wrong with having a relationship?"

"She's only 16."

Good fellow, you're a lawless lunatic!

Lin Chaoyang didn't expect that he almost became an accomplice of Du Feng. After being shocked, he asked again: "What's the matter with going to Yunnan? Just a love affair."

"My father doesn't let me find someone from the art troupe. You don't know that some people in our army specifically look for female comrades from the art troupe as their daughters-in-law."

Lin Chaoyang nodded knowingly. He still remembered that there was a TV series called "Happiness is Like a Flower" in later generations, which was about this kind of story. It seemed that Du Feng's father couldn't stand the style of some comrades in the army.

"My father said that the soldiers on the front line were fighting bloody battles, and I only knew how to talk about love. In a fit of anger, he wanted to send me to the front."

"Your father is really willing to do that!"

Everyone can talk about patriotism, but how many people can bravely step forward when it comes to bloodshed?

This is where the predecessors are worthy of admiration and respect.

Du Feng sighed, "He has been through many hardships in his life. I have never seen him cry since he was a child. Sometimes I even wonder if his heart is made of iron."

He added, "But we are just going to express our condolences. It is not as dangerous as you think. The real danger is for the soldiers."

Du Feng comforted Lin Chaoyang, but his tone gradually became low, more like comforting himself.

Lin Chaoyang did not know what to say, but patted Du Feng on the shoulder and said sincerely, "When you come back, I will treat you to a drink!"

Du Feng nodded heavily and took out another cigarette from his arms.

"What for?"

"Thank you, the matchmaker."

Du Feng blinked at Lin Chaoyang, "I said I would write a self-criticism, but I did not say that we are not together anymore."

Lin Chaoyang laughed. The love of young people is like a sudden flame, burning fiercely. The more you obstruct it, the more it is like adding fuel to the fire. Sometimes you let it burn, and the passion may disappear, and the two of them will break up by themselves.

After the two chatted, Du Feng left the room and told Tao's father and mother about the incident.

Although the two were worried about Du Feng, they were still calm. Tao Yumo, the little girl, cried instead.

Although she and Du Feng quarreled with each other, they grew up together after all.

"It's okay, I'm just going to perform. It's not as dangerous as you think."

After saying goodbye to everyone, Du Feng declined Tao's mother's invitation to have dinner together, got on his bicycle, waved to everyone, and left in a casual manner.

On this day, the Tao family was in a heavy mood.

The next morning, Lin Chaoyang was about to run to the classroom to take a class. When he passed the east side of the library, he saw Zhu Guangqian running away. It seemed that the old man was really undeterred by wind and rain. Today, there was even a blond curly-haired boy beside Zhu Guangqian.

The curly-haired boy was more than 1.8 meters tall. He had an inexplicable sense of humor when he followed the old Zhu, who was less than 1.6 meters tall.

Yanda has always had foreign students, and they can be seen from time to time on campus, but Lin Chaoyang rarely sees this group of people in the library.

During class, Lin Chaoyang heard students from the Chinese Department discussing whether to go to the Workers' Stadium to watch the performance of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

In the past two years, Sino-US diplomacy has been in a honeymoon stage. The old man just visited the United States some time ago. The two countries will usher in comprehensive exchanges in the political, economic and cultural fields. The Boston Symphony Orchestra is visiting China against this background.

The orchestra first arrived in Shanghai on March 15. After exchanging and performing two shows in Shanghai, it flew to Yanjing. The newspapers have already reported this news a few days ago.

In recent years, there have not been many cultural activities in China. As one of the top ten symphony orchestras in the world, the Boston Symphony Orchestra's visit to China has caused a lot of repercussions among the people through the media's hype.

"Can you get the tickets?" Lin Chaoyang asked Liang Zuo about the Huan he was discussing just now.

"You have to rob it, it's hard to say."

You have to buy tickets to see a symphony orchestra performance. This is the sequela of the poor spiritual life of ordinary people in the past few years.

Lin Chaoyang wanted to invite Tao Yushu to a concert. The couple rarely had the opportunity to go out on dates, so since tickets were hard to grab, forget it.

After class, Lin Chaoyang didn't care about eating and went back to the library first.

As soon as he walked to the front desk, he saw Hu Wenqiong chatting with a foreigner. The foreigner was the blond and curly young man that Lin Chaoyang saw in the morning.

There are many highly educated talents in the Yanda Library, many of whom can speak English. Hu Wenqiong's English is also good, but his English is mute.

The young man is not proficient in Chinese and his pronunciation is not very standard.

The two of them were talking about their own things. Hu Wenqiong couldn't understand even though his forehead was sweating in a hurry, and he was about to go find someone.

Lin Chaoyang listened for a long time, then struggled to identify it, and said: "Sister Hu, he seems to be looking for "The Golden Lotus"."

"Qing Pengmei, fight, fight, fight!"

The foreigner's bulk Chinese boy became a lot smarter now, and he even wanted to come up and give Lin Chaoyang a high-five. This style of behavior obviously came from the United States.

Lin Chaoyang's English is only level 4, but fortunately there are more opportunities for practical use in later generations, so it is still passable.

After a few stumbling exchanges with the foreigner, I found out that he was indeed an international student from the United States. His English name was Matthew Mouw. He also gave himself a Chinese name, Mao Tianci.

"You can call me Amao."

Amao?

Lin Chaoyang shook hands with him. The name was quite good. It matched Mao Tianci's hairstyle and was very vivid.
