Yu Dong was a little disappointed not to see Wang Xiaobo, but it was also expected.
After graduating from Renmin University, Mo Yan also said goodbye and left.
The four of them, Yu Dong, were left wandering around.
It's still inconvenient in this day and age, otherwise Yu Dong and the others could have called their friends in Yanjing to hang out.
It is not very cold in Yanjing in April, but the climate is dry. Yu Dong and Su Tong have stayed in Yanjing for a long time, so they are quite accustomed to it. Bi Feiyu has been to Yanjing several times before and is familiar with the weather in Yanjing.
Be prepared.
Ruan Xiaohu has never seen such weather since he was a child. After staying in Yanjing for two days, his throat has been itchy and he can't help but cough.
As people who have been here before, Yu Dong and the others knew that the problem was not serious, so they smiled and said, "Drink more hot water and get used to it. You should come to Yanjing often in the future."
Ruan Xiaohu nodded, took out the thermos bottle and poured out the water and took a sip. Yu Dong bought this bottle for him at a store near the hotel this morning. It was not worth much, but Ruan Xiaohu held it in his hands like a baby.
of.
"By the way, you have time to go to Jinling." Yu Dong said again.
"Well, I've been thinking about going over to find a teacher."
Yu Dong shook his head, "I asked you to go to Jinling not to see me, but to have something else to do. You are also writing now, and there are many things that you are too busy to do yourself. I will introduce you to your agent so that you can save your worries."
"broker?"
Ruan Xiaohu looked puzzled. There was no concept of an agent in his mind.
"Well, an agent can save you a lot of things. For example, if your book is to be published in the future, and someone wants to buy the film and television rights of your work, you don't need to negotiate it yourself, just leave it to the agent."
"But I've only published a few novels now, so I don't need an agent, right?"
"If you don't need it now, you will need it in the future." Bi Feiyu said from the side, "Your teacher and I are an agent, which is very good and can save you a lot of things. And I think you have a good one at this time.
Agents are also good and can help you find a good development direction. Agents know more about publishing and distribution than we do."
"Yes, I understand. I will go there in a while." Ruan Xiaohu nodded.
Yu Dong feels that finding an agent should be done sooner rather than later. It can release the most energy on creation from the beginning and allow writers to grow quickly.
Literature depends on talent, but as for writing, writing more will always be better.
Ordinary writers do not have the conditions to find an agent at the beginning. Ruan Xiaohu is lucky. He met Yu Dong and had unique conditions.
But Ruan Xiaohu had never thought about this. In his heart, Yu Dong was his teacher, and he only hoped to learn more from Yu Dong.
…
The next morning, Yu Dong and others went to Yu Hua's residence.
Their family of three was squeezed into a small bungalow of less than ten square meters.
Yu Dong and the others brought a lot of things, except for a bottle of good wine, the rest were nutritional supplements for both children and adults.
Possibly due to the hard work of childbirth and postpartum, Chen Hong's face was thin, her complexion was sallow, and she looked a little depressed.
However, the poet's temperament in Chen Hong could not be hidden. As soon as Yu Dong and others passed by, she thanked her profusely.
"I told Yu Hua that if you want to come over, you must not bring anything with you. He probably didn't listen."
Chen Hong's voice was not loud, just enough for people to hear clearly. Yu Haiguo was sleeping, and she probably didn't want to disturb the child.
Yu Dong and others were affected and deliberately lowered their voices when speaking.
"Yes, when the sea fruit was growing last year, we should have come over to take a look. It's just Yu Hua's fault. Many geniuses told us later."
"You are so far away, it's not convenient to come here. When he said he was going to Jinling, I was happy because I knew..."
While Chen Hong was talking, Hai Guo, who was sleeping on the bed, burst into tears. Several people gathered around to take a look. The little guy was chubby, his forehead and head were like Yu Hua's, and his mouth and nose were more like Chen Hong's.
He was also easy to coax. Chen Hong held him in her arms and patted him twice, and her cries gradually subsided. Then he found a few strangers coming to the house, so he hid in his mother's arms and looked at Yu Dong and the others.
The child, who is seven or eight months old, has his eyes rolling around and babbles from time to time. Sometimes a "daddy" pops up and can amuse Yu Hua for a long time. He knows that the child can't call anyone yet. It's just that the voice that comes out of nowhere sounds like daddy, but it makes me happy.
After sitting at Yu Hua's house for a while, Yu Dong and the others got up to leave.
The place in his house was too small, and it was barely enough to cook for the two of them, let alone four more people. Moreover, Chen Hong had to take care of her children, so it was unrealistic for Yu Hua to cook a full table of meals.
Seeing that Yu Dong and the others were about to leave, Chen Hong became anxious, "There's no reason to leave without eating. I've bought all the groceries. The place is a bit small, so you can make do with it and have a drink with Yu Hua and a few of your friends at noon. One cup.”
She held the child in her arms and pushed Yu Hua, "Go and stop them."
But Yu Hua didn't listen to her and tilted his head and said, "Forget it, let's stop working. Let's save this meal for Jinling. Aren't we about to leave now?"
"It's almost over?" Bi Feiyu stared at Yu Hua with bright eyes: "Is it settled?"
Chen Hong smiled and said, "Yes, I discussed it with Yu Hua. The house allocated to Jin Yi is in pretty good condition, and you and your good friends are all here, so why not just go there and live there."
"This is a good thing. When are you going to leave?" Su Tong asked.
"In another week or two, we have to clean up."
Yu Dong said: "Then Yu Hua won't leave this time. He will stay here with his sister-in-law for a few days. Then you can go there together. Call me before you leave and I will arrange a car to pick you up at the train station."
Chen Hong waved her hand, "No need to bother..."
"He's not afraid of trouble, it's okay." Yu Hua was not polite at all, "There are still many ways to trouble them later, so don't be polite to them."
Yu Dong smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, he is right. There should be trouble between friends. Besides, what kind of trouble is this? Since we have decided to go there, let's leave today."
After standing at the door and chatting for a few words, Yu Dong and the others left.
Looking at the backs of Yu Dong and the others, Chen Hong smiled and said to her husband: "Yu Dong looks young, and his interpersonal relationships are not ambiguous at all. This is much better than you. After seeing them today, I I'm relieved, your decision to go to Jinyi seems to be the right one."
"Of course, haven't I told you before?"
Yu Hua put his hands behind his back and walked towards the house with a proud look on his face.
