Literary Master 1978

Listen to what is said and hear the tone. Lin Chaoyang is not a young man who has never worked before, so he was not happy about Zhou Yanru's words.

If the novel is not published, everything will be meaningless.

Zhou Yanru is only the head of the novel group of "Yenjing Literature and Art". Above her is an editor-in-chief who is responsible for the final review.

The situation of "Yenjing Literature and Art" is a bit special. The earliest editor-in-chief of this publication was Mr. Lao She. Since Mr. Lao She's death in 1966, the publication has never appointed an editor-in-chief. The main person in charge of the leadership group has always been appointed to act as the editor-in-chief.

"Leave the manuscript here for now. The editorial committee will discuss it later. If it is adopted, I will let someone notify you to revise it."

Although Lin Chaoyang wanted to publish it earlier, he also knew that this kind of thing could not be rushed. The manuscript had been sent over, so he must wait.

It was already noon when he came out of the editorial office.

Lin Chaoyang and Chen Jiangong swapped places, and he rode the bike. "Jiangong, are you hungry? Let's find a place and I'll treat you to a meal."

"Not bad. Let's go back to school. The food in school is cheap."

The canteen of Yanda University is subsidized by the state, and it is indeed much cheaper than outside. Chen Jiangong also wants to save money for Lin Chaoyang.

It took more than an hour to go back, and it took nearly three hours to go back and forth in the morning. The two were starving. Lin Chaoyang dragged Chen Jiangong to the Long March Restaurant in Laohudong to eat meat, but was stopped by Chen Jiangong.

"Just the canteen, the canteen is fine. I'll give you a good meal when your novel is published later."

The Long March Restaurant is outside the school and is one of the places where Yanda teachers and students usually have the most food. However, the price of the dishes is much more expensive than the school. A portion of fried liver is 50 cents, which is equivalent to eating three meat dishes in school.

The two of them ate a meal in the canteen in a hurry. They ordered four meat dishes and only spent 1.2 yuan.

It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when Lin Chaoyang returned home. Tao Yushu was still studying. The scene was exactly the same as when he left home in the morning. Looking at her back with the aura of a top student, Lin Chaoyang was a little dazed for a moment.

Time stopped?

He secretly opened the lunch box he brought back, and the smell of meat spread, attracting Tao Yushu's attention at once.

"Where did it come from?" She asked while opening the window.

"I saved it for you in the cafeteria at noon."

Although the Tao family is a respectable family in Yanyuan, they only have meat at dinner among the three meals, and because of the large population, it is difficult for everyone to eat meat freely.

Tao Yushu would occasionally eat some meat dishes at school, but more often she would eat vegetarian dishes. She had to save the money to buy books and daily necessities.

Lin Chaoyang was not as careful and frugal as people of this generation. He had to eat meat every meal at school. Today, when he was eating with Chen Jiangong, he suddenly thought of Tao Yushu who was studying hard at home. He felt a little guilty and ordered another portion of braised pork for her.

The braised pork in the aluminum lunch box was still steaming when it was opened. It was covered with a layer of red sauce, which was shiny and could arouse people's appetite at a glance.

Tao Yushu picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth. Her big round eyes narrowed happily, and her cheeks were filled with large pieces of braised pork, like a little hamster stealing food.

Lin Chaoyang pushed the lunch box towards her, "Eat slowly."

She picked up another piece and handed it to Lin Chaoyang's mouth. He patted his stomach and said, "I ate too much in the cafeteria."

After eating several pieces in a row, she put down her chopsticks, "Don't eat too much, or you'll be sleepy later."

"Take a nap if you feel sleepy!" Lin Chaoyang said casually.

Tao Yushu shook her head, "I haven't finished writing that review yet, others have handed it in."

Lin Chaoyang stood up and rubbed her shoulders, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Although studies are important, life is equally important."

"I know." Tao Yushu stroked his hand, "I just..."

"I understand. Our generation has wasted and wasted too much time, and you finally got this opportunity."

Hands were held tighter, Tao Yushu looked at him sideways, "Thank you."

"Legal husband and wife, what are you thanking for?" Lin Chaoyang joked, "I'm just afraid that you'll be tired, and..."

He lowered his head to her neck as he spoke, "It's been a long time since we last met..."

Lin Chaoyang's voice became lower and lower, and Tao Yushu's neck skin turned pink, "You're not serious just by talking about it."

Lin Chaoyang sighed, "It's really not easy to be a son-in-law!"

The smile was faint between his eyes, and she knew that Lin Chaoyang wanted to play rogue again.

"It's not convenient at home, my sister-in-law and the others are still here."

Tao Yushu laid out the objective conditions, and Lin Chaoyang was a little helpless. He scratched his head anxiously, "How about going to a guesthouse outside?"

"You're going to die!" Tao Yushu hit him, firmly rejected the proposal, and then calmed her husband's restless emotions.

In order to prevent Lin Chaoyang from turning into a wolf, she took the initiative to change the subject, "Hey, can you help me see how my review is written?"

Knowing that this girl was perfunctory, Lin Chaoyang still took what she handed over.

"... In terms of selecting themes and shaping characters, "Scars" shows a completely different style from literary and artistic works over the years, so it is very normal to be questioned and criticized.

According to the great man's "Speech at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art", "concentrating daily phenomena, typifying the contradictions and struggles in them, and creating literary or artistic works can wake up and inspire the people." The novel "Scars" follows the guiding direction of pushing the people towards unity and struggle, and just cites a common story in daily life..."

After reading Tao Yushu's review article, Lin Chaoyang joked: "I don't think this is like literary criticism, but more like a recommendation."

"This novel is indeed good."

"If this is indeed the case in terms of the social significance and influence of the novel. But as a student of the Chinese Department, you still have to explore it from a professional perspective.

From my personal point of view, the level of this novel is not high. Its success does not come from the novel itself, but from the empathy of the people. "

Tao Yushu became interested after listening to Lin Chaoyang's words, "Please elaborate more."

Tao Yushu always believed that her husband was a man with hidden treasures. She worked in the countryside for several years, and the two of them didn't have much interaction at first. Later, they gradually got to know each other through working together. And because of a heroic rescue of a beauty, the two came together.

Many people thought that she was repaying her kindness, but in fact, only she knew that apart from the grace of saving her life, the bigger reason why she and Lin Chaoyang got together was that they had the same interests and topics - literature.

In an environment like Xiaoyangtun, having a confidant like Lin Chaoyang, it can be said that Lin Chaoyang illuminated her gloomy queue-jumping life during that period.

Lin Chaoyang is not only her savior, but also her companion with whom she can have soul communication.

Under Tao Yushu's urging, Lin Chaoyang was thinking about his words and how to show off in front of his wife.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open.

"Sister!" Tao Yumo poked his head in and shouted, but his eyes were fixed on Tao Yushu, full of astonishment.
