1978: Female educated youth, don’t want an illiterate husband

Chapter 61: Woman, if you continue to play like this, you will have no friends sooner or later (follow up reading)

They are also going to launch a satellite in October? And it will be even bigger than the one of Yenching Literature?
In a short while, the news spread throughout the October editorial department!
When Feng's mother Gu Xueqing walked back to the office, she looked at her colleagues' envious expressions and felt so proud and complacent!
The extremely arrogant teacher Gu of the past is back!

If Old Liu had a little more courage and really gave her son-in-law an exclusive interview with a famous writer, she would be even more proud!

It’s a pity that Lao Liu didn’t have it. He said he needed to study it and see!

This made Feng's mother, Gu Xueqing, even more anxious. She really wished that everyone in the editorial department could know from the outside that Lao Xu, the author of "The Shepherd", was her, Gu Xueqing's son-in-law!

Isn't Li Qingquan of Yenching Literature showing off? Didn't he launch a big satellite?
Her son-in-law, Gu Xueqing, helped him do it!
Cao Aiqin, what do you think? Is my son-in-law, Gu Xueqing, awesome? Is your son-in-law, Cao Aiqin, so awesome?

Gu Xueqing was really looking forward to the gossip that Lao Xu, the author of The Horse Wrangler, was her son-in-law to spread sooner rather than later.

As for Lao Liu’s research and decision, he should also come down quickly and launch another big satellite!

Then they will ask, who built this big satellite?

He is still Gu Xueqing’s good son-in-law!

……

"Xuemin, do you know? You've become famous in our Beijing Film Academy. Almost every student and teacher is holding a copy of Yenching Literature and is talking about you, the author of The Shepherd!"

Everyone gathered together for dinner, and my brother-in-law Feng Jiazhao brought up the topic, which instantly opened up the topic.

"Yes! Mr. Cheng, it's the same in our school! Especially the female students, each of them dreams of having their other half, the Xu Lingjun you wrote about!"

"There's something even more outrageous. A female classmate secretly wrote a love letter to you, the author Lao Xu, in class, and was caught by the teacher on the spot!"

My sister-in-law Feng Jiamo also said the same thing.

"Ahem..." Cheng Xuemin was almost choked by his sister-in-law's words, and said awkwardly, "I just wrote this article based on the popularity of 'Scars'!"

"You are a little brat, why don't you study hard at school every day and read those miscellaneous books?"

"Feng Jiamo, I'm telling you, you better concentrate on preparing for the exam. If you fail to get into Yanjing University next year, you'll be in big trouble!"

Mother Feng hit the chopsticks that Feng Jiamo was using to pick up a piece of meat, scolded him, and then picked up the meat and put it into Feng Jiayou's bowl.

outrageous!
Aren't you ashamed to ask your sister-in-law to write a love letter to your brother-in-law?
"Mom, is this a miscellaneous book? Our Chinese teacher has come out! He said that Cheng's "The Horse Herder" is definitely a pioneering work after "The Class Teacher" and "Scars", and predicted that it will definitely have a strong impact on next year's college entrance examination. He also asked us to submit a profound reading experience!"

My mother said that "The Shepherd" written by Lao Cheng was a miscellaneous book, and my sister-in-law was the first one to speak up and argue!

He took advantage of her mother's inattention and found another big piece of meat, quickly picked it up in his hands and put it directly into his mouth.

Knowing that her mother is partial, whenever there is something delicious or drinkable, she usually gives it to her sister first, saying that her sister is now pregnant with two children, so they have to give in a little.

Being partial is being partial. We were supposed to have a big roast duck tonight, but I didn’t buy it.

"Did your head teacher really say that?"

Mother Feng looked at Feng Jiamo in surprise. She didn't expect that her son-in-law's "The Horse Shepherd" would be so highly praised and become the pioneering work of "scar literature"?

"Mom! Xuemin's 'The Horse Herder' is amazing! Old comrades in our unit all sighed that the Chinese literary world has produced a 'The Horse Herder', which is amazing!"

The weight of these words from my brother-in-law Feng Jiazhao is even more extraordinary!

What kind of people are the old comrades in their unit?

They all say that China's literary world has produced a "Horse Wrangler". Doesn't that mean that she, a son-in-law from a peasant family, can occupy a place in China's literary world just by writing this "Horse Wrangler"?
"You didn't tell them that The Shepherd was written by Xuemin, right?" Mother Feng glanced at the siblings Feng Jiazhao and Feng Jiamo, especially Feng Jiamo, and asked, "Especially you, Feng Jiamo, you didn't say that in your school, did you?"

Feng's mother had already informed them in advance that the story about The Shepherd was written by their brother-in-law and their husband, so they shouldn't spread it around.

Her original intention at the beginning was to let Li Qingquan of Yenching Literature jump around for a few more days, and then she could use the big satellite in her hand to slap him in the face.

Now Feng's mother doesn't want the news to be spread so early, and she also wants to launch such a big satellite in her unit first.

"No, no, don't worry, Mom. I won't sell out Big Cheng. I'm waiting for him to go to the Affiliated High School of Yanda University, so that I can formally introduce him to my classmates!"

"Especially those female classmates. When they start to ferment more, I will envy them to death!"

The cunning in the sister-in-law's eyes is exactly the same as her sister Feng Jiayou!

A whole family of bastards!

Cheng Xuemin could see that this family was full of pretenders, and each one was better than the other.

"hiss……"

But Cheng Xuemin, who was not happy at all, suddenly took a breath for no reason.

"What's wrong? Xuemin, are you feeling unwell?"

It’s a rare opportunity to get care from my mother-in-law!
"No, no, Mom, I'm done eating, you guys take your time!"

Cheng Xuemin rubbed his waist calmly and turned his head to look at the woman next to him, Feng Jiayou. How did he offend her again?

"Xuemin, you are so proud now! How many girls will write love letters to you with an article "The Shepherd"? "

"Do you know? I noticed that Huang Beijia looked a little strange today. Do you know what she did?" Feng Jiayou, who had returned to the house together, said to Cheng Xuemin with a smile on her face. But why did Cheng Xuemin feel more and more that this woman was so fierce and fierce, and she had bad intentions?
It wasn't like he was the one who actively flirted with those girls, and he had read this article "The Horse Shepherd" to her before submitting it!

Cheng Xuemin didn't expect that it would attract so much love and admiration from girls.

As for her classmate Huang Beijia, she was not a classmate that Cheng Xuemin spent every day with, so how could he know what she did? !
"Also writing love letters!" Feng Jiayu said calmly!
Cheng Xuemin's scalp tingled for a moment when he heard this. Woman, are you taking things a little too far?

Cheng Xuemin smacked his lips and quickly advised: "Wife, why don't you tell them right away? You can't keep it a secret for long. Won't you be embarrassed to death in the future?!"

When Huang Beijia and the others find out that all the love letters they wrote were received by you, Feng Jiayou, what will they think? How embarrassed will they be?!
Are we still going to be together in the future?! After you get admitted to Yanda University, you will see each other every day for three or four years. Do you really need to play so big with women?

"That won't do! I have to receive Huang Beijia's love letter first. This is her first love letter, and it is hidden very carefully. Jianying and I won't even let her see it!"

"So I'm very curious about what's written! Aren't you curious and looking forward to it, Xuemin?"

Feng Jiayou glanced at Cheng Xuemin and asked with a wicked smile.

"I... what's there to look forward to!" Cheng Xuemin quickly shook his head. No one would believe him if he said he wasn't looking forward to it, but did he dare to admit to his face that he was looking forward to it? Wasn't the fat around his waist red enough?
If Cheng Xuemin dared to nod, the woman would definitely let him know why the flowers are so red.

"No... Why did Huang Beijia want to write... this!? Isn't she afraid that the author is an old man? "

Although she is a new writer, no one knows how old she is exactly. Yenching Literature is very secretive, so Huang Beijia shouldn’t be such a straightforward and impulsive girl!

"Is Huang Beijia so stupid?! It's spread!" Feng Jiayou was successfully diverted a little by Cheng Xuemin, and he was no longer looking forward to the love letter!

"It spread!? The fact that I'm the author of The Horse Wrangler spread?!"

Cheng Xuemin asked again in confusion, if this spread, would Huang Beijia still write a love letter to her man in front of Feng Jiayou?
Or now that the news has spread, can Feng Jiayou allow her best friend to write love letters to her man?
Is Feng Jiayou’s hobby really so unique?

"The news that you, the author of The Wrangler, are a student at Yenching University has spread!"

"It should have come from the mail room. Isn't the return address for our manuscript Yenching University?"

"Luckily it was written by The Horse Wrangler, Lao Xu Shou. Now everyone is trying to figure out who the author of The Horse Wrangler, Lao Xu, is!"

"When Huang Beijia and the others heard that the person was actually a classmate, they became even more eager to contact you, the author of The Wrangler, through the reader's letter!"

"So I guess Beijia must be in the letter, asking you out to watch a movie together!"

"Then let's go together and give her a big surprise, okay?!"

play!
Woman, just keep playing like this! Sooner or later you won't have any friends at all!

In the following days, Feng Jiayou was waiting for her best friend's love letter, while Cheng Xuemin could not delay his plan to enrich the slush fund no matter how busy he was.

While I was slowly writing that novella, I also finished a short story of nearly 30,000 words!
This time, Cheng Xuemin still did not alarm Feng Jiayou, nor did he alarm his mother-in-law who had occupied two of his manuscripts and had not yet replied to his letter.

Submitted quietly!

I submitted it to the "Yanhe Literature" magazine in my hometown. Since the manuscript was originally about the events of those years on the Loess Plateau, the manuscript was simply named "Loess Plateau", and the main theme is the hometown sentiment.

Time passed slowly and November came. It had been almost a month since Cheng Xuemin came to Yenching!
During this period, he received a reply letter from his parents in his hometown. They had mentioned in the previous letter that this year he and Feng Jiayou would go back to northern Shaanxi during the winter vacation to spend the New Year with them.

But his parents mentioned in the letter that their young daughter was pregnant and it was not suitable for her to travel long distances, so they simply let Cheng Xuemin, the son-in-law, spend his first year with his parents-in-law!
Just tell them to wait until the baby is born in the spring of next year and then find time to send the grandson back!

What his parents said did make sense. Feng Jiayou's belly was getting bigger day by day, and it was really not advisable for her to run around during the winter vacation and New Year holidays.

Let alone going back to northern Shaanxi. Even if you can buy a sleeper berth, you will be exhausted. As for soft sleeper, forget it. You are not qualified for it because of your low level.

So Cheng Xuemin and Feng Jiayou discussed it and decided that since it was not convenient for them to go back, they would invite their parents to come to Yanjing to celebrate the New Year.

Cheng Xuemin was also worried that his parents might find it hard to leave their hometown and would be reluctant to come over.

Feng Jiayou said directly that they would book the train tickets for their parents and mail them back to northern Shaanxi. How could they not come?

This clever little guy...it's really a good idea, just kidnap her parents-in-law and bring them to Yanjing to celebrate the New Year, right! ?

After many days passed, Feng's mother was also looking forward to it, and seemed to be getting impatient!
"What's up, Old Liu? Haven't you come up with any results yet? The author is pushing for more. If it doesn't work, he'll ask for the manuscript to be rejected. This issue of Yanjing Literature is about to be finalized!"

The first thing Feng's mother, Gu Xueqing, did when she arrived at the office that morning was to go to Liu Xinwu's office to ask if there was any follow-up.
I've been researching this for over a week, okay?!
"Teacher Gu, the leaders are also very busy! It is impossible for them to approve the manuscript we just submitted right away!"

"But don't worry, I've been asking about this for the past two days. I'll let you know as soon as I have any news!"

Liu Xinwu was also anxious, okay? But the leaders above were not just concerned about their situation, they were busy!
"I can wait, but the author can't?! Li Qingquan from Yanjing Literature is also urging him! We are occupying two of his manuscripts, do you think the author is anxious?"

The same excuse again. Old Liu doesn't have the courage he had when he was on "Class Teacher"!

"Teacher Gu, how about you..." Liu Xinwu originally wanted to ask Teacher Gu to delay the author a little longer, but at that moment the phone on the desk rang, which made him startled and he sensed something, so he quickly answered the phone!
"Hello, Secretary Yang! Yes, yes, I'm Liu Xinwu from October! The leader has approved it, right? Okay, okay, I got it! I will notify the author as soon as possible and won't keep the leader waiting for too long!"

"Old Liu, is there any news?!"

Seeing Liu Xinwu hung up the phone with a look of shock and horror on his face, Feng's mother quickly asked!

"Teacher Gu, please inform the author immediately and ask him to report to the department tomorrow morning. The leader wants to meet him in person!"
