Chapter subtitle: The old cannot go, but the new will come. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Yuan Yanqian said with a look of guilt: "So getting a degree step by step is too slow for me, I hope you can understand......"
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”
Our Master Yuan peeked at it and was happy in his heart, it turned out that he raised his voice and let those classmates hear it too. Look, what a good comrade...... Well, gentleman, I was moved to tears by my patriotic fervor.
He looked around with a "blank" expression, and it took a while to "react". Yuan Yanqian stood up again, bowed to the students who applauded more enthusiastically than just now, and thanked them with a look of more excitement than just now.
When the applause subsided, Vice President Conant stood up, patted Yuan Yanqian on the shoulder, and said, "Mr. Yuan, I am looking forward to your doctoral dissertation. Don't forget to send me a copy when the time comes. ”
Master Yuan showed a reserved smile on his face, and said politely: "This is my honor......
"Ahh
Standing on the pier and looking at the cruise ship in the distance, Yuan Yanqian was blown by the sea breeze and couldn't help but sneeze loudly. When he took out his handkerchief, he also brought out a small note written in Juanxiu's handwriting.
He came to the dock to see off MS. Don, and the business is not benevolent. However, Ms. Tang Baokun still couldn't hold back after all, and left him a mailing address.
Our Master Yuan wiped his nose with a handkerchief, a self-deprecating wry smile appeared on his face, and with a sudden release of his hand, the note flew towards the Atlantic Ocean with the bitter sea breeze.
A man will break when he is decided, and what kind of hero is procrastination.
He turned around and saw the Chinese students who had come to see him off in twos and threes. In the end, it is the daughter of the former prime minister, whether they are familiar or not, they always have to come over and make a familiar face.
Yuan Yan strode over, greeting the acquaintances with a smile on his face: "Xiangzi, Xiao Yang, and ...... Xiao Lu, are you going to leave too? ”
Xiao Yang, who looks like a fried bun, took the lead in replying angrily: "Allah doesn't go, I left each blow wind." (Translation: We're not leaving, we're going to stay here and blow the wind.) )
Our Master Yuan laughed and said without mind: "Xiao Yang, you are still talking like this. ”
He gave the three of them a message: "The brothers offended a lot a few days ago, and the three brothers have a lot of forbearance." ”
President Yuan patted his chest and said: "Don't talk nonsense, today's lunch is my brother, and then I will listen to you for eight or sixteen laps." ”
As soon as he said this, the faces of the three card partners finally loosened. How can there be such a deep city?
Camel Xiangzi ran up and put his hand on Yuan Yanqian's shoulder, and said with a smile: "I'll just say, President Yuan doesn't have so many fancy intestines, and he won't forget our brother if he beats him." ”
And the six-fingered qin demon rolled his eyes, touched his nose and "hummed" softly, but finally did not open his mouth to refuse.
"Very-good, what are you going to eat today?"
"There's something else to say, steak."
"You don't get tired of steak all the time, my local Chinese will eat Chinese food if you want to."
This morning, President Yuan always felt that he was not very strong, not only did his back hurt, but even his feet were a little weak, and his nose was a little cold. So he walked up to Xiao Yang Shengfang without a trace, lowered his voice and deliberately asked in Shanghainese: "Xiao Yang, Nong knows what Ali can buy...... Liuwei Rehmannia Pills? ”
Ever since our Master Yuan was in Professor Chandler's class, "three years without a fan soaring into the sky, three years without a roar, a blockbuster." After that, the relationship with his American classmates gradually warmed up.
The so-called interpersonal relationship actually depends on the mentality. You can make any friends with a good mentality, whether they are Chinese or crooked.
When the original Yuan Yanqi was studying at Hujiang University in Shanghai, he saw the high-spirited foreign soldiers stationed in China in the concession and the warships of the great powers rampant on the Huangpu River every day, and it was difficult not to have the complicated emotions of the Chinese in the Republic of China when facing the Westerners.
Some people, such as Yuan Yanqian's father, really can't turn the corner, and they know that they can't do anything, so they have to pretend to turn a blind eye. Like an ostrich, it plunges its head deep into the sand made of the "old paper pile".
Of course, this is the practice of the old-school characters. And the new-school characters can't catch up with the afterlife of being a foreigner, and now there is no plastic surgery technology to change a white skin, so they try their best to be a banana man in this life
The more troublesome ones are people like Yuan Yanqian, who are not willing to deceive themselves, but they still have a little national self-esteem; I want to integrate into Western society, but I know in my heart that foreigners look down on me; I didn't want to be an "inferior nation", but I didn't have this self-confidence, so they were at a loss, and in the end, Citigroup, thousands of miles away, could only huddle with their compatriots to keep warm.
In fact, these mentalities still exist in the hearts of many Chinese people decades later.
The new version of Yuan Yanqian is an authentic post-90s generation, most of their generation is not like their ancestors and fathers, and they have never had a hard life at all; Unlike the post-70s and post-80s, they do not have a very specific impression of the pains of social transition. On the contrary, when he was a teenager who established the three views, he watched the enemy rot day by day, and it seemed that he could only wait for the mustache to come to power; At the same time, I saw that we are getting better day by day, so good that the stars and the sea seem to be really an achievable ideal. Although in the eyes of some people they are brainwashed rabbit bar little pink, but they are really a new generation of Chinese who have not carried a heavy history.
Therefore, he can at least be level in the face of foreigners. In addition, he is a time-traveler who is quite familiar with history, and he congenitally carries a sense of superiority over those who are downstream of history. When he communicates with foreigners, he is not hesitant, he is very open, and those jokes of later generations are one after another.
Well, those jokes don't need to be unlocked by the Master Ball system.
Strangely, such a Chinese aroused the curiosity and affection of his classmates, who were still from the elite class. It's like a Chinese college student meeting an African student whose name he has never heard of, who not only speaks fluent Chinese and is called a brother, but also learns and uses Chinese pop culture...... That's probably how it feels.
And the most close to him is Mr. Louis Baker, the grandson of the big Wall Street banker.
