Obediently, Tingyin'er realized that Lin Chaoyang was not a young man who had never worked before, so he was not happy because of Zhou Yanru's words.
The novel is not published, so nothing counts.
Zhou Yanru is only the leader of the novel team of "Yanjing Literature and Art", and there is an editor above her who is responsible for the final review.
The situation of "Yanjing Literature and Art" is somewhat special. The earliest editor-in-chief of this publication was Mr. Lao She. Since Mr. Lao She's death in 1966, the publication has not appointed an editor-in-chief. It has always been called the main person in charge of the leading group and assumes the duties of acting editor-in-chief.
"Leave the manuscript with us for now. Let's go back to the editorial board to discuss it. If it is adopted, I will let you know how to revise it."
Although Lin Chaoyang wanted to publish it as soon as possible, he also knew that this kind of thing could not be rushed. The manuscript had already been sent, so it would definitely have to wait.
When I came out of the editorial office, it was already noon.
Lin Chaoyang and Chen Jiangong switched positions, and he was the one to ride the bike. "Jiangong, are you hungry? Find a place and I'll treat you to a meal."
"It's okay. Let's go back to school and eat. School food is cheap."
The canteen at Yanda is subsidized by the state and is indeed much cheaper than outside. Chen Jiangong also wanted to save Lin Chaoyang money.
It took more than an hour to go back, and they went back and forth for nearly three hours in the morning. The two of them were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. Lin Chaoyang pulled Chen Jiangong to go to the Changzheng Restaurant in Laohudong to eat meat, but Chen Jiangong held him back.
"Just the cafeteria, just the cafeteria. When your novel is published later, I will kill you again."
The Changzheng Restaurant is located outside the school and is one of the places where students and teachers from Yan University usually go to eat a lot of food. However, the price of vegetables is much more expensive than that of the school. A serving of liver noodles costs 50 cents, which is equivalent to eating three meat dishes at school.
The two of them had a meal in the cafeteria in a hurry. They ordered four meat dishes and only had one piece and two pieces.
It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when Lin Chaoyang returned home, and Tao Yushu was still immersed in studying. The scene was exactly the same as when he left home in the morning. Looking at her back that exuded the halo of a top student, Lin Chaoyang felt a little dazed for a moment.
Time has stopped?
He secretly opened the lunch box he brought back, and the smell of meat spread, attracting Tao Yushu's attention.
"Where did it come from?" she asked, opening the window.
"The lunch in the cafeteria is specially reserved for you."
Although the Tao family is a respectable family in Yanyuan, meat is only served at dinner among the three meals, and because of the large population, it is difficult for everyone to eat meat openly.
Tao Yushu occasionally eats some meat dishes at school, but mostly eats vegetarian dishes. She has to save the money she saves to buy books and daily necessities.
Lin Chaoyang did not live a frugal life like people of this era, and could not live without meat at school. Today when he and Chen Jiangong were eating haise, he suddenly thought of Tao Yushu who was studying hard at home. He felt a little guilty and gave her another slap.
Come back with braised pork.
The braised pork packed in an aluminum lunch box is still steaming when opened. It is covered with a layer of red sauce and is shiny. Just one look at it can arouse people's appetite.
Tao Yushu picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. His big round eyes grew narrow and happy, and his cheeks were stuffed full of large pieces of braised meat, like a little hamster eating secretly.
Lin Chaoyang pushed the lunch box in her direction, "Eat slowly."
She took another piece and handed it to Lin Chaoyang's mouth. He patted his belly and said, "I was so full in the cafeteria."
After eating several pieces in a row, she put down her chopsticks and said, "Don't eat more, I'll make you sleepy later."
"If you're sleepy, just take a nap!" Lin Chaoyang said casually.
Tao Yushu shook his head, "I haven't finished writing that review yet. Others have submitted it."
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 gently, "I just..."
"I understand. Our generation has wasted and wasted too much time. You finally got this opportunity."
Tao Yushu looked at him sideways as his hand was held tighter, "Thank you."
"Legally married, what are you grateful for?" Lin Chaoyang joked, "I'm just worried that you will be tired, and..."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and leaned against her neck, "It's been a long time since we both..."
Lin Chaoyang's voice became lower and lower as he spoke, and the skin of Tao Yushu's neck turned pink, "It's not right to talk about it."
Lin Chaoyang lamented, "It's really hard to be a son-in-law who steps in on someone else's door!"
The smile seemed to disappear as her eyes flickered, and she knew that Lin Chaoyang wanted to play rogue again.
"It's not convenient at home, but 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 guest house outside?"
"You're going to die!" Tao Yushu hit him, firmly rejected the proposal, and then calmed her husband's restless mood.
In order to prevent Lin Chaoyang from turning into a wolf, she took the initiative to change the topic, "Hey, can you help me see how I wrote this review?"
Knowing that this girl was perfunctory with him, Lin Chaoyang still took what she handed over.
"..."Scars" shows a completely different style from the literary and artistic works over the years in terms of subject selection and character creation, so it is quite normal for it to be questioned and criticized.
According to the great man's "Speech at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art", by gathering "daily phenomena, typifying the contradictions and struggles in them, and creating literary or artistic works, the people can wake up and become excited."
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, and 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 beauty. She worked in the countryside for several years. The two did not have much interaction at first, but they gradually got to know each other through working together. And because of a hero saving a beauty, the two came together.
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 communicate with her soul.
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 moment, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open.
