【221】Come home for a meal
At a certain stage of life, Zhang Yang actually had the idea of "It's all ancient times, so why didn't Yang Guo marry Guo Xiang and Xiaolongnu together?" However, this is naturally not realistic. Putting aside Yang Guo's own ideas, it is reasonable in ancient times, but the novel is for modern readers.
Although there are also harem novels like The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao's character was decided from the beginning. If so many preparations were laid among the Condor Heroes and finally they won both, it would be a bit unreasonable.
Zhang Yang is naturally criticizing readers who dare to have such a rebellious idea. If that is the case, Yang Guo would not be Yang Guo, and there is no need to write any martial arts novels himself, so just write them.
In short, Yang Guo is absolutely devoted to Xiaolongnu, and has a pair of people for life, just like he is treating her.
He didn't care about his loyalty, but just asked curiously: "If you don't write martial arts, what do you write?"
Zhang Yang coughed, "Nothing is right, have you brought the camera?"
"I brought it, what are you writing?"
"It's better not to write it."
"What you just said is obviously better than writing, but there must be something besides writing."
"That's the slip of the tongue."
Zhang Yang pinched her face and said with a hint of amusement, "Where do you get such a great curiosity?"
Lin Yiran hummed twice, talking about the description of Huang Rong and Guo Jing when talking about Yang Guo and Guo Xiang jumped off the cliff. He asked him why he wrote this, Zhang Yang spread his hands and said, "There is no way, that's how it was in that era."
Lin Yiran glared at him angrily, obviously not satisfied with the answer, so he pinched him and talked about his doubts. Zhang Yang was a little funny when he heard it.
"The roles played by different people of different ages and different people are different, of course they are different. Huang Rong in The Legend of the Condor Heroes is a daughter and a lover, and Huang Rong in The Legend of the Condor Heroes is a mother, a wife, and a leader of the Beggars' Sect, so they are naturally different."
"Then why can Guo Jing scold her?"
"You are taking things out of context. When did Guo Jing scold her?"
"You still want to argue? The original text is that Guo Jing has always respected his beloved wife and has never been rude to her before others. These two reproach words are very serious, and Huang Rong couldn't help but blush and blame her. Isn't it called scolding?"
"Even in modern society, a husband can say something wrong after hearing about his wife doing."
"Yes, you see, in modern times, men and women are still unequal."
"Breaking nonsense! If the man did something wrong, can't his wife say it?"
"When did Huang Rong say that Guo Jing was wrong? Or in front of others?"
"You want to argue, do you?"
Lin Yiran hummed twice, leaned on his shoulder, and said, "And what you wrote is that you have never been rude to her before others. That is to say, when there are no others, are you still rude to you?"
"Nonsense, if there was no rudeness, where did Guo Fu and Guo Xiang come from?"
Lin Yiran was angry and laughed, blushed slightly, and gently pinched his arm, "You are just messing around."
"You are not allowed to say that to my wife."
"I'm talking about you."
"You are not allowed to say that to my wife."
Lin Yiran didn't want to pay attention to him, let go of his arm, moved to the car door angrily, and stayed away from him. Zhang Yang looked at her, moved to the car door, and handed over a look: "Who is afraid of who?"
The two of them leaned against the car door and stared at each other to demonstrate. After a while, Lin Yiran couldn't help laughing out loud, and then quickly held back. Zhang Yang leaned over with a smile. Lin Yiran used both hands and feet, trying to push him away.
Although Yuan Tong always pretended to be transparent, she was not really transparent after all. Obviously, both of them were still worried. After a stalemate for a while, Zhang Yang asked for peace, so she reluctantly agreed and sat together with her hands.
The resort villa is in the north city. It is said to be a royal villa with a beautiful environment. The two of them wandered around, had lunch, and rented a boat to go with the flow in the lake.
Zhang Yang originally wanted to rent an electric boat, but she insisted on pedaling the boat. But after pedaling for a while, she was unwilling to pedal. So she just sat together and let the boat float along with the water, sitting side by side and chatting.
"At that time, Guo Jing said that he admired Wu Zixu and Wenzhong for his loyalty to the country, and later helped defend Xiangyang and serve the country and the people."
Lin Yiran inexplicably remembered the conversation between Guo Jing and Huang Rong when she was rafting on Taihu Lake, so she asked Zhang Yang, "What do you want to do after you write martial arts, science fiction, and sing?"
Zhang Yang thought about it and said with a smile: "Science fiction only writes this book, and martial arts is probably only four or five books, and I won't write anything anymore after that. I should continue singing the songs, and then film TV series and movies."
He sighed and smiled: "Modern society, relatively speaking, is still the spread of film and television music and has a greater influence."
Lin Yiran asked: "Do you really want to shoulder the responsibility of promoting the influence of Chinese culture on one shoulder?"
Zhang Yang stroked her delicate and smooth palms and smiled, "I don't have that high awareness, I have greater influence, and I make more money. Only with more money can I marry you."
Lin Yiran's eyes fluttered and glanced at him: "You're just pursuing this little thing?"
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Is this still young? Not to mention earlier, I have only had the idea of marrying you like me from high school to now. But in the end I did it alone. From this perspective, I am better than them, and these people are definitely outstanding in their respective fields. Maybe by marrying Lin Yiran, I have become the small group of people at the peak of the world."
Lin Yiran pounded his shoulder with some amusement and said angrily: "Hate!"
He added: "I haven't married you yet."
Zhang Yang grabbed her with both hands and said with a smile: "Do you still want to run?"
Lin Yiran raised his chin and snorted softly: "That's not necessarily."
"Hey, I'm getting braver!"
Zhang Yang reached out to scratch her itch. Seeing her smiling and twisting her face to dodge, she suddenly remembered the mistake she made when slapping the chrysanthemum platform that day. Her palm seemed to feel the soft and plump touch that was still clear through the clothes. She couldn't help but feel a warm feeling. But on a sunny day, Lin still couldn't let him do anything, so she reached out to hug her. Lin Yiran struggled a few times, and then let him hold her.
"Yiyi."
"Um?"
"When I return to Qingcheng, if I have time, I'll go to my house for a meal."
Lin Yiran raised his head in surprise, his cheeks flushed slightly, and his eyes shining at him, as if shy and joyful, buried his face in his arms again, and whispered: "It's too early, right?"
Zhang Yang said: "It's a bit urgent, but it's going to happen sooner or later,"
He hesitated for a moment and said, "During the summer vacation, my mother once asked us if we had a quarrel. I accidentally said that I would take you home this year for the Chinese New Year."
After Lin Yiran finished listening, he said "Oh".
"Then do you agree?"
Lin Yiran did not answer, looked up at him and asked, "It's because of this that you want me to have dinner at your house?"
Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "Of course not. The main reason is that my parents like you very much, and it's just a meal for the morning and evening, right? Just help me, so that my mother will not ask me, then I'm very embarrassed?"
"Oh! Are you afraid you're not embarrassed?"
“Isn’t this enough?”
"Hmph, what does it have to do with me?"
"Are you going?"
"Hmph."
"Can you go?"
"What can I say right now? It depends on whether I have time at that time, whether I feel good, whether I eat well, and whether I sleep well."
Zhang Yang will go back to Qingcheng tomorrow, so after having dinner together, Lin Yiran went home. Before Lin Canghai came back, Su Hui was chatting with Aunt Kong. Seeing that the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were filled with smiles, she smiled and said, "Where are you going to have fun, so happy?"
“A resort villa.”
Lin Yiran sat down on the sofa next to his mother, said a few words about what he had played today, and said, "By the way, Zhang Yang has discussed with the publishing house, the Three-Body Problem is published directly. Mom, do you want to read it? I'll let him send it later."
Su Hui smiled and said, "Since you are going to publish, you don't have to worry."
Lin Yiran nodded, and saw that his father was not at home, he asked questions that had been bothering since watching the Divine Eagle series in the morning. She told her mother what she thoughts when watching the Divine Eagle and her conversation with Zhang Yang. Finally, she asked: "Mom, when you are so old, you must not be like this now, right?"
"Sure enough, I'm starting to grow up. Do you know what you think about?"
Su Hui stroked her daughter's hair and said something jokingly, but did not answer directly. She pondered for a while before asking with a smile: "Have you ever asked Zhang Yang, the ending of Guo Jing and Huang Rong?"
Lin Yiran was a little confused, and Su Hui added with a smile: "It's not the ending of this novel, it's the ending of Guo Jing and Huang Rong."
Lin Yiran shook his head.
Su Hui said: "According to the novel, Guo Jing helped defend Xiangyang, and made great contributions to the country and the people, he could not change history after all. In history, the Song and Yuan dynasties fought around Xiangyang for decades, and the last Xiangyang War lasted five or six years. After Xiangyang was defeated, Mongolia quickly captured Lin'an and the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed. The timeline written by Zhang Yang must have been before this, but the ending will not change."
"Xiangyang was the top priority for the Southern Song Dynasty to defend Mongolia. This is also the reason why Guo Jing helped defend Xiangyang. Now there is only one last time left for the Condor Heroes. It will definitely not be written that Xiangyang was broken, but it will be broken sooner or later."
She once again emphasized this matter and looked at Lin Yiran, "What do you think will happen to Guo Jing and Huang Rong?"
Lin Yiran couldn't speak for a moment. Su Hui looked at her expression, but smiled slightly, reached out to touch her daughter's face, "I will definitely not write it in the Condor Heroes, but Zhang Yang's future novels will probably point it out. Guo Jing and Huang Rong help guard Xiangyang, and the city was broken and unyielding. Since he decided to write about Guo Jing for the country and the people, this ending was already destined."
Su Hui looked at her thoughtful daughter and smiled: "Huang Rong and Guo Jing were blocked by the seven monsters in Jiangnan. When they were unable to be together, do you think she had thought about these things?"
Lin Yiran shook his head.
Su Hui asked again: "Now we assume that Xiangyang falls and Guo Jing and Huang Rong die, do you think Huang Rong will regret it?"
Lin Yiran thought about it and shook her head again: "I don't know."
Su Hui smiled, "Since the Divine Eagle wrote, there are still many readers of The Legend of the Condor Heroes who are dissatisfied with it. They feel that Huang Rong has a very big contrast and cannot accept that we assume that Huang Rong is a real person. What do you think of her own attitude towards her transformation? What is her attitude towards these voices?"
Lin Yiran thought for a while and said with some uncertainty: "According to the description in the Divine Condor, she must feel happy."
Su Hui smiled and corrected: "It's sweet to be happy, which means that you are experiencing painlessness, hardship, but you don't feel bitter. After Huang Rong and Guo Jing got married, their love has remained unchanged for decades. How could there be any pain?"
She sighed softly before saying, "Zhang Yang was right. In that era, the status of men and women was like this. Women should obey and have four virtues. For people at that time, this was a model couple. Many people may even think that Guo Jing was too doting on his wife and fearing her inner self."
"Guo Jing has changed from a fool to a hero in the world. This is the change that readers expect, moving upwards, and Huang Rong has changed from an innocent girl to a virtuous and considerate wife. In the eyes of readers, she may feel that the contrast is too big, and even thinks that she is going downhill. But in fact, for Huang Rong herself, she is also moving upwards. Brother Jing's good wife is the better self she strives to pursue."
"You think this is a good thing, but don't worry too much about equality between men and women. It is impossible for men and women to be equal in all places. There was no before, but now, and it is likely that there will be a difficult future. It is not that there is a distinction between high and low, but the positioning is different. It is like cups and bottles, pots and bowls that play their strengths differently."
"In modern society, women are not confined to so many rules and regulations, but it does not mean that what women did in the past were wrong and should not be done by women. Human civilization has been reproductive and has been giving birth to children. Is it because men and women are equal, so men are required to have children too?"
"When mom was as old as you, I never thought about whom I would spend my whole life with or even at that time. What I thought was that it would be best not to get married in the future, because if I got married, I could only be with this man in the future, for the rest of my life! Isn't it boring to be with a man for decades, for such a long time?"
Seeing Lin Yiran's eyes widened in surprise, Su Hui smiled, "I met your father later, and didn't he come here like this. When I think back then, I just think so, but I did think so at that time. If I saw me now, I would definitely feel that my mother is very unpromising."
She smiled again, "I'm very happy, even if she laughs at me a few words, I'm happy."
Lin Yiran nodded as if he was ignorant. Su Hui rubbed her head, paused for a while, and added: "However, joining hands for a lifetime is not something that someone dragged through the whole life."
"Zhang Yang's career has begun. With his talent, I can't tell your father whether he will achieve anything in the future. He has been busy all day long before he graduated. Now you are focusing on school, and after graduation, you will definitely have your own business."
"Your dad and I never thought of taking over Dunhuang and Hongzhuang, but you always have to have what you want to do. Even if you are doing your career with Zhang Yang, it's fine, Yiyi, you have to remember one thing, you have to lose his ability."
"It's not that you want to lose his preparation. This kind of thing may damage your current relationship. But if love wants to keep it fresh, you cannot fall into the pattern of going from fresh to familiarity, from habit to boredom. To do this, you must have an independent core and cannot be a vine climbing on the tree."
