Chapter 129 I’m going to show off(1/2)

"I didn't say An Jie is your mother." Lin Chaoyang quibbled.

Tao Yushu squinted his eyes and smiled, "Is Dehua right?"

"Well. Not only Dehua, but An Xin also has some of her colors."

"A character is written into several characters, but you really have it. But don't say it, it's quite interesting to write it like this."

Although "Parents' Love" is about the stumbling and hardships of Jiang Defu and Anjie for decades of ups and downs, the tone is actually relaxed and pleasant.

Especially when describing the two characters An Jie and Dehua's sister-in-law, the lines in the novel are filled with a sense of humor and happiness, which always makes people feel happy when they read.

Tao Yushu said that Tao’s mother would get angry, which was just a joke.

Although An Jie in the novel has the shortcomings of being willful and willful, he also has many advantages. It should be said that her advantages and human brilliance are far greater than her shortcomings.

If my mother reads the novel, she should be happy.

While the couple were chatting about the novel, Zhang Guiqin had already led Tao’s father and mother to travel around the team, calling it a look at the customs and customs of our countryside.

As soon as they got home, someone came with a child in his arms.

"Professor Tao, I heard that you are a university professor in Yanjing. This child in our family has just been born a month and has not yet been given a name. Can you please give me a name?"

I don’t know if the news of naming Da Mingzi’s child last night spread. In just one night, a brigade next door actually brought the child to ask Tao’s father to name it.

He is also considerate and not only holds the child in his hand, but also has two kilograms of pork.

Tao's father was not willing to refuse, so he took some thought and gave the child a name. After thanking the adults at home, they left happily.

"Dad, I think if this continues, you can earn back the round-trip train tickets."

Tao Yushu teased his father with pork, and Lin Erchun said, "In-laws, the country people have never seen any world before, so they have caused you trouble."

Tao's father smiled and said, "Nothing is a trouble. I'm very kind. I asked me to name my child. I should be so nervous."

The ideas of the people in the team are actually not difficult to understand. First of all, Tao’s father is indeed a top intellectual who has not appeared in Xiao Yangtun for many years. Everyone has some educational experiences;

Secondly, he asked him to name his child, and he would be glorious when he said it in the future. Especially when Tao's father named his child, he always quoted classics. Just listening to it makes people feel harsh and so proud!

Tao Yushu held the pork and smiled and said, "I can add another dish today!"

Everyone laughed.

The truth is as Tao Yushu said. In just one day, more people came to ask Tao’s father to name him.

When Lin Chaoyang asked, they all belonged to the various brigades of the commune.

Tao's father never expected that he and his son-in-law would go back to his hometown in Northeast China and actually open up a new business.

However, he was not impatient with this matter. He adhered to the spirit of not allowing every parent to have a chance to have a chance to name every newborn seriously, striving to be not only good-sounding, easy to remember, but also has good meanings. His attitude is much more dedicated than those named masters in later generations.

In just two days, Tao's father had received eight gifts, which also meant that eight newborns had names.

Lin Chaoyang really didn't realize that the birth rate of newborns in their fields was so high. You should know that these children are all children less than two months old.

If this were in the Northeast of later generations, it would have been the birth rate of this area in a year.

On the 29th day, Lin Erchun is going to the market. Today is the last big market before the New Year and the last chance to prepare New Year’s goods.

Early in the morning, he got on a donkey cart, and Lin Chaoyang and others were sitting in the cart. They followed him to the market and joined in the fun.

Markets are an indispensable and important shopping channel for rural people in this era. Even when speculation was the worst in the past few years, many markets in rural areas were very prosperous.

The ticket rationing in rural areas is already less than in cities. If there is no market channel to supplement it, it will seriously affect the daily lives of farmers.

At this time, in the big market, industrial products are not allowed to be sold. Clothing requires cloth tickets, and food, including snacks, are not allowed to be sold, because these are all purchased, sold, and supplied in a fixed quantity.

As long as the rest of the products are not resold, the items sold by their own products or the output of the production team are allowed.

The most common thing in the market is to sell vegetables grown in your own land, and agricultural and sideline products such as home-raised poultry, and the most common ones are cabbage, carrots, eggs, duck eggs, etc.

The production team also has special people to buy and sell cattle, horse, donkey and mule, and some members also hold the piglets, chickens, ducks, geese and pigeons that have just been taken from home. Others include hand-woven kang mats, baskets, dustpans, brooms, and other agricultural knitted products.

As the Chinese New Year is over, there are more New Year pictures, couplets, persimmon cakes and candied haws in the market.

Lin Chaoyang bought Tao Yushu a string of candied haws, and ate and walked around. The two fell behind Lin Erchun. Lin Erchun bought something and handed it over to Lin Chaoyang to carry it.

Tao’s father and mother walked further behind and wandered around the market with great interest.

Tao Yushu wanted to buy couplets, but Lin Erchun hurriedly stopped him and said that he could just go back to the team and ask Cheng Xiucai to write two pairs of them.

Tao Yushu said: "It would be better to ask my dad to write two copies for you, his calligraphy is also good."

Lin Erchun smiled and said, "That's good!"

After visiting the market, Lin Erchun led Tao’s father to the "Cheng Xiucai"'s house in the team in the afternoon.

The Lin family has no pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and there is no tool to write couplets, but Cheng Xiucai has it.

Cheng Xiucai is not a scholar, his grandfather is a scholar, and he has practiced calligraphy since childhood with his grandfather.

Every year end, every household in the team has to write couplets, and he can make a small profit.

Cheng Xiucai thought Lin Erchun was here to ask him to write couplets. At this moment, he still had two groups of "customers". After sending these two groups of customers away, he was about to splash ink, but Lin Erchun threw them to him.

"Old Tao, come!"

After two days of familiarity, Lin Erchun and Tao's father got closer.

Cheng Xiucai pulled Lin Erchun and said, "How do you calculate money?"

Lin Erchun secretly gave him two cents, and Cheng Xiucai decided to shut up. He had no need to write, so he didn't have to write. What a great thing!

But before Cheng Xiucai was happy for a while, the new client discovered that Tao’s father seemed to be much higher than Cheng Xiucai.

The most important thing is that he is a university professor at Yenching University, and the couplets he wrote are calligraphy.

Someone ran to Tao's father with shamelessness and asked for magic treasures. Lin Erchun did not do anything, so Cheng Xiucai walked forward to "drive the king forward".

"Go and go, they are a university professor in Yanjing. Their words can be sold for money. If you want to fool people with these three melons?"

The customer was dissatisfied with the criticism of Cheng Xiucai, "Your word is worth a few times. He is a university professor, so it must be another price."

Cheng Xiucai said unconvincedly: "Come on, come on, you can take this twenty yuan, I will ask Professor Tao to write a couplet for you."

"You are not afraid of the wind blowing your tongue, you still have twenty dollars?"

"I still don't admit that I want to take advantage of it? I can wait honestly!"

When Cheng Xiucai saw that the other side was timid, he showed pride.

As the two quarreled, Tao's father had already written a couplet. Cheng Xiucai praised: "Professor Tao's handwriting is really good. Is he copying Liu Gongquan's post?"

Tao’s father smiled, “Yes. Your regular script skills are quite good, and it is obvious that it has been decades of hard work.”

After receiving a compliment from Tao’s father, Cheng Xiucai became even more proud. Professor Yan University recognized his calligraphy skills and would be able to brag when he went out in the future.

When they got home, Lin Erchun talked about what happened at Cheng Xiucai's house, and everyone laughed.

Lin Chaoyang whispered to Tao Yushu: "Why do I feel that your dad is more popular than me when he returns to his hometown?"

Tao Yushu couldn't help but smile, "Are you praising me these two days?"

"That's different. They looked up to your dad, and they were 'Your kid'.'"

"Ha ha!"

Tao Yushu was amused by him and laughed.

Lin Chaoyang's feeling was not wrong, because Tao's father's identity as Professor Yan University was too far away from everyone, so when he suddenly saw him, everyone used the look of looking up.

Lin Chaoyang grew up watching him as a member of the team. He suddenly became a great writer because he was too close to him, so it was difficult for everyone to feel that looking up.

However, this situation improved significantly on the second day of the Lunar New Year, because the commune leaders actually led the county leaders to Lin Erchun's house.

It is said that the county leaders came to visit Lin Chaoyang, a famous writer who is famous all over the country, and heard that he had returned to his hometown.

Upon hearing this news, the people in Xiao Yangtun finally understood the value of Lin Chaoyang, a writer.

After seeing off the county leader, Tao Yushu asked, "This County Mayor Zhou is quite etiquette, he just doesn't say what he is doing."

"I won't go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. I am the county leader. It's impossible for me to really wish us a happy New Year, right?" Lin Chaoyang said relaxedly.

"Then do you think he has something to ask for?" Tao Yushu asked.

Lin Chaoyang shook his head, "Who knows, those who are officials cannot tell you the first time they have something to say. I guess they just want me to write about my hometown."

Tao Yushu nodded slightly. Apart from this purpose, she could not think of any reason for a county leader to come to a writer's house to pay New Year's greetings.

"Then if he really asked you to help write something, would you write it?"

"If there is a suitable subject, there is no reason not to write it. After all, it is my hometown, but if it is a copy and hard work, it is no need."

While the couple were chatting, they watched Ms. Zhang Guiqin go out in a neatly dressed manner.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Lin Chaoyang asked.

Zhang Guiqin replied: "I'll visit you."

This sentence was automatically replaced by "I'll pretend to behave."

The couple looked at each other and smiled.

In the afternoon, Cangtai ran to Lin Chaoyang and asked him: "Chaoyang, are you leaving tomorrow?"
