Literary Master 1978

Chapter 71: Confused about small matters, but not about big matters

With the help of students, it is no longer a secret in Yanda that Lin Chaoyang is Xu Lingjun.

Let alone the discussion among students, the response among faculty and staff is very large.

What surprises everyone is not that Peking University has produced a writer. Peking University has many celebrities. Any professor picked out from any department may be very famous in the profession.

The first time everyone heard of Lin Chaoyang's name was, of course, when the daughter of Professor Tao of the History Department found a husband from the countryside.

In the story of Lin Chaoyang, Tao Yushu and even the Tao family, he is like the silly boy who was hit by the pie in the sky, or Dong Yong in "The Fairy and the Fairy" and Liu Yanchang in "Chenxiang Saves His Mother".

While everyone feels his luck, they can't help but look down on him.

People can't help but speculate with secular psychology, how could such a rural person spend his life with the daughter of a professor and the pride of Yanda Normal University?

The huge gap between the two determines that their future life must be full of twists and turns, and they may have to divorce at any time.

No matter how interesting the story is, it is only a topic of conversation after dinner. Just when time has diluted everyone's enthusiasm for this matter, it suddenly spread in Yanyuan that Lin Chaoyang is the Xu Lingjun who wrote "The Shepherd".

How could the faculty and staff of Yan University, who had already had a preconceived impression of Lin Chaoyang, not be surprised and surprised? The gossip about Lin Chaoyang, Tao Yushu and the Tao family has once again become the best condiment for leisure in Yanyuan.

The spread of this news not only made Lin Chaoyang's impression among the faculty and staff of Yan University turn positive, but the biggest beneficiary was Tao Yushu.

Many people are saying that the Tao family has a good way of educating their daughters and has a keen eye for people. They can actually see Lin Chaoyang, a potential stock, at first sight in the difficult environment of going to the countryside, and they are willing to give themselves to him without hesitation.

The story of Tao Yushu and Lin Chaoyang is gradually becoming a good story in Yanyuan.

One day in mid-April, Lin Chaoyang just entered the corridor after get off work, and before he entered the house, he heard a happy noise coming from the house.

He pushed open the door and saw his brother-in-law Du Feng, whom he hadn't seen for almost two months, playing and fighting with Tao Yumo. Tao's father and elder brother-in-law looked at them with smiles on their faces.

"Brother-in-law!"

When Du Feng saw Lin Chaoyang, he pushed Tao Yumo away and gave him a warm hug.

"When did you come back?"

"The day before yesterday, I took a rest and came to tell you that I was safe!"

Du Feng only went to the front line to comfort the front line for a short time, only less than two months, but when they met again, Lin Chaoyang could still feel the changes brought to him by this experience.

"More energetic than before!" Lin Chaoyang looked him up and down.

"Everyone says so." Du Feng spoke with a bit of pride. After talking about his own affairs, he asked excitedly: "What's the matter? I heard from Yumo that all the novels you wrote have been published? That "The Shepherd" was written by you?"

Lin Chaoyang smiled and nodded.

"Oh! I really didn't make a mistake. I said that a talent like yours would become a sensation sooner or later!"

Before Lin Chaoyang could speak, Tao Yumo sarcastically said, "After the fact!"

"How can this be called after the fact? If I hadn't discovered my brother-in-law's talent, would I have asked him for help with my love letter?"

Tao Yumo rolled his eyes at Du Feng, "Shameless."

In the past, the quarrels between the two would have attracted Tao's mother's scolding, but today was different. Tao's mother was preparing a big meal in the kitchen to reward her nephew who had returned from the front line, and she was in a good mood.

During the meal, Du Feng talked about some of his experiences on the front line, and the listeners sighed.

The nominal war only lasted for a month and was declared over as early as mid-March, but how could the preparations and endings before and after end so quickly? The small-scale conflicts between the two countries are still continuing.

Du Feng was at the frontline, and although he was not the first line, he knew a lot about the various deeds that happened during that period. When he talked about the emotional part, he couldn't help crying and sobbing.

"They are all so young, someone has to record their heroic deeds." Du Feng finally said while wiping his tears.

He looked at Lin Chaoyang, "Brother-in-law, aren't you a writer? Write a novel for them!"

Du Feng, a grown man, looked at Lin Chaoyang with tears in his eyes, which made him feel very pressured.

"These comrades are worth recording and praising, but I know nothing about the army and the war!"

"If you don't understand, I'll tell you, and I'll let my dad tell you if I don't understand."

How did it become a political task?

"Isn't it the task that your dad asked you to assign to me?"

"He can't remember these things. Brother-in-law, please help!"

Tao Yushu knew that in this situation, if Lin Chaoyang didn't agree to Du Feng's request, it would be somewhat unkind, but writing a novel is not tap water, which can be found by turning on the tap.

"Du Feng, you just made a fuss and asked your brother-in-law to write a novel. Do you think it's like using food coupons to buy rice?"

Lin Chaoyang knew that Tao Yushu was going to be the villain. He had no feelings for writing novels. He just wanted to earn royalties. Du Feng's request might be difficult for others, but it was not difficult for him.

However, what he said just now was not an excuse.

He didn't know much about the war that had just passed, and he had no experience in the army. If he just wrote it, it would be a bit rash.

"Du Feng, this matter can't be rushed. I think this way, I will learn about the information during this period."

After hearing this, Tao Yushu looked at him unexpectedly, and so did the rest of the Tao family. Everyone felt that Lin Chaoyang said this out of consideration for Tao Yushu's feelings.

"Great, brother-in-law!" Du Feng hugged Lin Chaoyang, excited.

"If you need to know anything, tell me anytime, and I'll send you the information tomorrow."

Du Feng was in the army, and had been to the front, so he had a lot of first-hand information. Moreover, his father's rank in the army was not low, so he could learn even more.

Since that day, Du Feng came to Yanyuan almost every day. In addition to handing Lin Chaoyang a bunch of information that was not taboo, he also told him what he knew.

After Du Feng left that day, Tao Yushu said, "Don't be afraid of embarrassment. I didn't want you to agree to the novel. If you don't have any inspiration, I'll tell him later that I won't write it."

"It's not that I can't write it. I have some ideas, but I'm still sorting out these materials and information. The war is still going on. Since the content of the novel involves the soldiers, I still have to take it seriously and be respectful."

Tao Yushu didn't expect Lin Chaoyang to have such an idea. She had never seen Lin Chaoyang have such a serious and rigorous attitude in writing before.

Such a comment suddenly popped up in her mind: Confused about small things, not confused about big things.

It probably said about her husband's character.

His sudden seriousness made Tao Yushu happy, because this was another side of her husband that she had never seen before.

Knowing Lin Chaoyang's idea, Tao Yushu was no longer afraid that Du Feng's idea would embarrass her husband.

But just when Lin Chaoyang was diligently preparing for the novel, Du Feng, who had come to his house every day for some time, suddenly disappeared.

At first, Lin Chaoyang thought that Du Feng was just enthusiastic for three days, and might have become slack after the energy he had accumulated before wore off, until he received a call from Du's father.
