Chapter 26: Chinese New Year (Part II)

The first and second days of the Lunar New Year rushed by like a white horse passing by while visiting relatives and friends.

Geng Wenyang is a traverser, and he has little impression or affection for the relatives of the Geng and Li families, and follows Geng Huizhong and Li Yufen like a marionette to meet a group of relatives.

Fortunately, everyone didn't pay attention to Geng Wenyang, who was silent and inactive, and treated him as a prop man, and no one was willing to ask him more.

finally looked forward to the third day of the Lunar New Year, and after breakfast, Geng Wenyang found an excuse to sneak out of the house. It's not a wise choice to hang out in the cold, and it's best to go to a good friend's house for a day of worship.

Whose house is the right place to go? If you look for Xin Xudong and others, you will only get together to play cards and play games to kill time meaninglessly, it is better to go to the beautiful sister Zhuang Xiaomeng to talk about something cultural and tasteful.

He immediately made a decision, went out and turned his head straight to Zhuang Fujin's house.

Unexpectedly, when I entered the dealer's house, Zhuang Fujin and Zhang Minhua were entertaining a group of relatives, and the house was overcrowded, and it was very lively to chat.

Geng Wenyang looked around and didn't see Zhuang Xiaomeng's figure, and asked curiously after greeting his relatives: "Aunt Zhang, where is Sister Xiaomeng?" ”

Zhang Minhua turned around and pointed to the back of the room and said, "Xiaomeng came to a few classmates, and they went to the backyard to play together." ”

Geng Wenyang hurriedly said politely: "Thank you, Aunt Zhang, I'll go to the back to find Sister Xiaomeng." ”

"Look at this kid, so polite." In Zhang Minhua's praise, Geng Wenyang turned around and walked to the backyard.

When he climbed up to the second floor of the embroidery building, he saw Zhuang Xiaomeng lying on a chair for a long time, chatting with four or five young men and women of the same age.

Seeing Geng Wenyang suddenly appear, several people looked at him in unison.

"Wen Yang!?" Zhuang Xiaomeng stood up with a look of surprise and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Geng Wenyang smiled: "Sister, I'm really bored, I want to come and talk to you for a while!" ”

Zhuang Xiaomeng walked up to him in three steps and two steps, and couldn't help but take his arm and introduce it to everyone: "Let's get to know, this is the author of "The Biography of Xiaoao" that I told you: Geng Wenyang! ”

"Ahh He is Geng Wenyang!? The young men and women suddenly had a look of astonishment on their faces.

It is unbelievable that the wonderful and insightful words in "The Legend of Smiling Proud Heroes" were written by the teenage boy in front of him.

"Wen Yang, you sit here!" Zhuang Xiaomeng pulled over a rattan chair, let Geng Wenyang beside him, and introduced to him: "These are my junior high school classmates. ”

She pointed to a tall and thin man wearing gold-rimmed glasses among the young men and women and specially introduced: "My classmate is the best, he was admitted to Donghai Normal University and studied English. ”

The guy with gold-rimmed glasses saw that Zhuang Xiaomeng was very enthusiastic about Geng Wenyang, and his brows frowned slightly, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but he still took the initiative to speak: "My name is Daniel Zhang." It's a great pleasure to meet the great writer of "The Legend of Smiling Proud" today! ”

After that, he rolled his eyes and said, "Zhuang Xiaomeng, this little brother really didn't go to high school?" ”

"Nope!" Zhuang Xiaomeng praised proudly: "Wen Yang went to work as a temporary worker after graduating from junior high school, how can he have a chance to go to high school?" ”

"Oops, that's a shame." A girl lamented.

Daniel Zhang sneered: "Then he must not have read European and American literature." Compared with European and American literature, our martial arts novels are inferior to the Riba people, and they cannot be put on the stage. ”

Geng Wenyang secretly wondered that he had not offended this Daniel Zhang, why did he just meet and sneer at himself? Is there something wrong with this guy?

Zhuang Xiaomeng also heard the disdain for Geng Wenyang in Daniel Zhang's words, and said unfairly: "Daniel Zhang, you don't look at people in the cracks of the door and look at people flatly. How do you know that Wen Yang doesn't know European and American literature? ”

Daniel Zhang smiled when he heard this: "Well, since you said that he understands European and American literature, then I want to ask, what European and American literary masterpieces has he read?" Can you name a name or two? ”

Although the person who can write martial arts novels is powerful, Daniel Zhang dares to interrogate him face to face, and everyone can't wait to see the excitement, and one by one they quickly turn their eyes to Geng Wenyang.

Under the eyes of everyone, Geng Wenyang finally figured out a little taste, and secretly laughed: "This Daniel Zhang must have some thoughts about Zhuang Xiaomeng, so he deliberately made things difficult for me and wanted to elevate himself by belittling me." ”

Zhuang Xiao dreamed that he was silent, thinking that he was stopped by Daniel Zhang, and hurriedly unraveled: "Wen Yang likes traditional literature, and it is normal that he is not familiar with European and American things. ”

The corners of Daniel Zhang's mouth curled, and he was about to say a few sarcastic words, when he suddenly heard Geng Wen say loudly: "Tobeornottobe, what do you mean by you explain to me?" ”

"What?" Daniel Zhang didn't expect Geng Wenyang to take the initiative to speak English, and couldn't help but be stunned: "What did you say?" ”

β€œTobeornottobe。” Geng Wenyang accentuated his tone and said, "Aren't you very familiar with European and American literature?" What do you mean by that? ”

Daniel Zhang frowned, and muttered in his mouth: "Tobeornottobe?" ”

Others saw that Daniel Zhang fell into deep thought, and out of classmate friendship, they also helped to discuss.

One girl said: "The literal translation of this sentence should be: yes or no." ”

Another girl said: "I think it means: success or failure." ”

Geng Wenyang saw that Daniel Zhang couldn't think of it, and snorted: "It's not difficult for you to celebrate the New Year." In the novel, this phrase translated into Chinese means: to live or to perish. ”

"Huh!?" One girl exclaimed, "I see! This is a famous line from Shakespeare's "Hamlet". ”

Geng Wenyang not only knows Shakespeare and "Hamlet", but also knows the original text of the famous sentences in it, and the knowledge and connotation can be described as unfathomable.

The hidden person is the most surprising, and this group of self-esteemed Zhuang Xiaomeng classmates were impressed by him.

Daniel Zhang lost face in front of Zhuang Xiaomeng and a group of classmates, and said unconvinced: "This is nothing, foreign literature everyone reads the Chinese translation, who goes to read the original English version?" ”

There is a way that it is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord. For the enemy who takes the initiative to provoke, we should take advantage of their illness to kill the water dogs, and we must not learn from Mr. Dongguo's woman's benevolence.

Geng Wenyang sneered and said, "That's good! You're an English major, so you should be able to translate if I say a word in English, right? ”

A junior high school student actually has to compete with himself professionally, and isn't it a tiger catching lice on his head to ask for hardship?

Daniel Zhang was overjoyed in his heart, and said with a stalk around his neck: "No problem, you say!" ”

Geng Wenyang read slowly: "Thesizesixspringisenought."

"Thesizesixspring......" Daniel Zhang silently recited a few times, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, gritted his teeth, and said: "The meaning of this sentence is: No. 6 spring is very watery. ”

Zhuang Xiaomeng's heart sank when he heard this. She knew that spring certainly didn't mean spring here, but it didn't seem very appropriate to translate it as spring water.

Geng Wenyang grinned and said, "Spring doesn't mean spring water here. The meaning of this sentence is: it is enough to choose a number six spring. ”
