Chapter 14: Feng Ming
Everyone will have such a person around them from childhood to adulthood, she or he has better grades than you, looks better than you, has more friends than you, and even in the impression of parents, she is hundreds of times better than you. This kind of person is commonly known as someone else's child.
"Look at who is who, people are back to the first place in the exam, look at you!"
"Look at that who, people are so obedient, look at you!"
That's right, the children who are sitting next to Ye Leiyang now have been talked about by Wang Yuan and Ye Aiguo since they were children, and they are used to "spur" and "motivate" him. Aunt Ye Leiyang's cousin Tian Xiaoxu.
Tian Xiaoxu is five years older than Ye Leiyang, and now he has just graduated from college and works in the municipal government office. On weekdays, the relationship between the sister and brother is still good, but Tian Xiaoxu naturally likes a poisonous tongue, Ye Leiyang has been hit by her countless times in the past, and he naturally doesn't want to associate with her after a long time.
It's just that in Ye Leiyang's opinion today, although Tian Xiaoxu has a bit of a poisonous mouth, he is not bad. In her previous life, when she was in the capital, she came on a business trip and saw that she was living poorly, so she secretly left 3,000 yuan for herself. So when they met again at this time, Ye Leiyang was not unhappy with her complaints, but felt cordial.
"But then again, you kid is good, you haven't made a splash for three years, and you have suffered so much in the test with such a high score, right?" Tian Xiaoxu casually picked up the mineral water in front of Ye Leiyang and poured it down, and said with a smile.
Ye Leiyang shrugged: "It's okay, you also know, the college entrance examination, that's it." ”
Tian Xiaoxu smiled: "It's good to go to college, my sister guarantees that you will definitely be happy." ”
Ye Leiyang rolled his eyes, of course he knew what Tian Xiaoxu meant, today's college campus has long lost the rigid atmosphere of the past, and the increasingly open society naturally makes the students in the ivory tower have different ideas, his college career in his previous life was full of nonsense such as skipping classes, falling in love, etc., I believe that Tian Xiaoxu's college career is similar.
But today's Ye Leiyang naturally won't make the same mistake, for him, every second of coming back to this world is precious, he has not experienced the cycle of birth, old age, sickness and death, and no one can appreciate the preciousness of time and life.
"Sister, didn't you say you couldn't come?" Ye Leiyang tilted his head and said to Tian Xiaoxu. Just now, my uncle said that Tian Xiaoxu has something to do today, so he shouldn't come over.
Tian Xiaoxu shrugged: "Don't mention it, a deputy district chief in your suburbs is a classmate of our director in the party school, isn't this pulling us over for dinner, I see that the distance is so close, of course I have to come over to see my dear brother, although you are not a big deal." ”
Ye Leiyang's heart warmed, and she naturally knew that she could come over to see what it meant to her when she had a meal with the leader, although the old sister didn't care about it, she was still very worried about her younger brother in her heart.
"Okay, I'll come over and tell you a few words, I have to go over, these people in the unit are too good to drink." Tian Xiaoxu muttered a few words, said hello to Ye Aiguo and Wang Yuan, and left. She went out to eat with the leader, and it was inconvenient to leave for too long.
Ye Leiyang watched Tian Xiaoxu leave, shrugged his shoulders and came back to continue chatting with several elders.
Soon the wine and food were delivered, Ye Aiguo was very happy today, kept raising his glass, and even allowed Ye Leiyang to drink a bottle of beer, which made Ye Leiyang, who had not drunk much in his previous life and this life, suffer, a bottle of beer in his stomach, Ye Leiyang felt that his head was a little sinky.
"Yangyang, your sister and their leaders are having dinner next to you, we are going over to toast a glass of wine, you can come over too." At this time, the eldest uncle said to Ye Leiyang.
Ye Leiyang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't think much about it, got up and followed his eldest uncle and aunt out of the private room.
This kind of thing is very normal, the habit of the northern wine table, when you meet someone you know, you always have to come over to make a scene and toast.
"Director Li, we Xiaoxu will have to trouble you to take care of it." The eldest uncle held a wine glass to Tian Xiaoxu's top boss, and Deputy Director Li of the Municipal Government Office said with a smile.
Director Li waved his hand again and again: "Professor Tian, you are polite, Xiaoxu is a good seedling and his performance is very good." ”
My uncle is the director of the Department of Brain Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Beihai University, and he is also a visiting professor of the School of Medicine of Beihai University, so he can be regarded as a senior intellectual, so Director Li did not take any official positions and was very polite to him.
The two of them chatted in a staggered manner, and Ye Leiyang didn't speak, just stood quietly behind his eldest uncle and aunt.
"Hehe, this is the child of my brother's family, and he has taken the liberal arts line in the college entrance examination this year, and he came out for dinner today."
At this time, the aunt pointed at Ye Leiyang and explained to Director Li with a smile.
"Really? The little guy is very good, study hard. Director Li also smiled and praised it, everyone carries the sedan chair.
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at a young woman on the table: "By the way, Xiao Wang, didn't you just say that your brother also took the college entrance examination this year, how about it, how many points did you score?" ”
The girl smiled when she heard this: "My brother is a science major, six hundred and ninety points." After speaking, she also glanced at Tian Xiaoxu and raised her head.
Tian Xiaoxu snorted and didn't speak, but Ye Leiyang saw a trace of resentment in the old lady's eyes, and he was speechless for a while, this is also worth comparing? One liberal arts and one science, the questions in the exam are not the same at all, okay?
Director Li also seemed to see the undercurrent of the two subordinates, smiled and changed the topic to Ye Leiyang and asked, "Little guy, what major are you going to study?" ”
Ye Leiyang replied respectfully: "I prefer history and literature, so I applied for the Department of Chinese and the Department of History." ”
Director Li nodded: "History or Chinese?" Not bad, not bad. I like to study history, our country's history has a long history, and it is worth learning from future generations. ”
"I recently saw a book on the Internet that writes about the history of the Ming Dynasty, which is particularly interesting, the author's historical skills are very profound, the historical materials are studied very thoroughly, and the writing is also very good." As Director Li spoke, he actually recommended the books he liked to read.
What the leader recommended is naturally a good thing, this is an unspoken rule in officialdom, and soon, including the deputy district chief who invited guests, everyone began to discuss the history of the Ming Dynasty, and Xiao Wang, who was secretly competing with Tian Xiaoxu, took the initiative to help Director Li buy this book.
Unexpectedly, Director Li shook his head helplessly: "The book must not be bought, and the author updated it on an online forum." The people of Tianya Forum contacted the author several times, but did not get a reply. And I don't know why.,The author hasn't updated it in the last two days.,Alas,I'm in a hurry to wait.。 ”
Ye Leiyang's heart moved, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "That, the book you are talking about, is it "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"?" ”
Director Li was stunned: "Young man, have you seen it too?" ”
Ye Leiyang nodded honestly: "I'm ...... in the Internet café."
"Hehe, it's not good to study at a young age, but it's really interesting to go online." That little Wang interrupted Ye Leiyang before he could finish speaking, the meaning was obvious, as a student, he didn't study hard and went to the Internet, it seems that Ye Leiyang's achievement is just a coincidence.
Tian Xiaoxu glared at the other party fiercely, but he was still on his brother's side: "My brother is born with a smart brain!" ”
Ye Leiyang shook his head helplessly, maybe it was because of the stimulation of alcohol, maybe it was because he saw his sister being stimulated with words, he glanced at the girl lightly, and then said calmly to Director Li: "That, if you remember the title of the book correctly, the author of that book seems to be me." ”
In an instant, there was silence at the dinner table!
