While the two were talking, a young and beautiful figure appeared near the front desk.

"Brother-in-law!" Tao Yumo called sweetly.

Lin Chaoyang said: "Why don't you go home these days?"

When Yan University started school, Tao Yumo, a freshman in the class of ’79, also moved to the student dormitory. This move was like a dragon releasing into the sea and a tiger returning to the mountain. The Tao family did not see her shadow for several days.

"I'm busy in class!"

"You are busy in class and after class? Are you busy at night?" Lin Chaoyang mercilessly exposed his sister-in-law's lies and reminded: "Mom has been in a bad mood recently."

Tao Yumo was not afraid at all, but instead smiled with a bit of confidence, "You scold me a lot, right? It doesn't matter, let her scold me, I won't listen anyway."

The happy college life made Tao Yumo so happy that he didn't even want to go back home.

Lin Chaoyang looked at his sister-in-law's performance and felt as if another "Tao Yushu" had appeared. Do women from the Tao family develop this fighting spirit and fearlessness after entering college?

"Brother-in-law, it's already noon, please treat me to dinner!"

"How much money does your sister give me in a month? Are you embarrassed to ask me to treat you to dinner?" Lin Chaoyang cried out.

Tao Yumo looked like I'm stupid, "You have enough money to buy a record player for my sister, but you don't have enough money to treat me to dinner?"

Lin Chaoyang:......

My sister-in-law's reason sounds impeccable. She has money to buy a 200-yuan record player, but can't afford to spend 50 cents to treat me to dinner?

Lin Chaoyang lamented in his heart, my record player only cost thirteen yuan!

He never thought that his wife's casual shout of two hundred dollars would dig such a big hole for him, and it would actually become fat in his sister-in-law's eyes.

"Zhenyun, let's come too."

Since you can't avoid treating guests, you might as well be more generous.

Lin Chaoyang noticed that from the moment Tao Yumo appeared at the library desk, Liu Zhenyun's eyes had been evasive on her, the kind of look he wanted to look at but didn't dare to look at.

Tao Yumo and her sister Tao Yushu have similar looks, and they both inherited Tao's mother's excellent genes, but her face has a more delicate and girlish appearance.

Lin Chaoyang invited the two of them to Changzheng Restaurant and ordered two meat dishes. The three of them had a great time eating and ended up spending one yuan and eighty dollars.

"Thank you, brother-in-law!"

After Lin Chaoyang had a meal, Tao Yumo wiped her mouth and left, leaving Liu Zhenyun looking at her back with a sense of loss.

"Don't look at it, there's no trace of it." Lin Chaoyang reminded.

Being exposed, Liu Zhenyun's face flashed with a look of embarrassment.

He and Lin Chaoyang are one year apart, but Lin Chaoyang has been married for almost two years, but he is still a boy. It is normal to have such a reaction when seeing a beautiful girl.

"Chaoyang, the novel "Garland Under the Mountain" is so well written!"

Liu Zhenyun's topic was very blunt, but Lin Chaoyang still said politely: "What's the good thing?"

Putting aside the shyness in his heart, Liu Zhenyun pondered for a moment before speaking.

"After reading this novel, I was most impressed by two points. The first point is the authenticity and three-dimensionality of the characters.

The image of soldiers in the novel "High Mountain" is very different from what we have seen in literary works and movies in the past, breaking away from the past thin stereotypes and the heroic image of Gao Daquan.

Instead, it gives them a rich emotional world and complex human characteristics. In the novel, Liang Sanxi’s simplicity and perseverance, and Zhao Mengsheng’s growth, this realistic approach makes the characters closer to real life, and also enhances the artistic appeal of the novel itself.

force.

Then there is the tragic consciousness and humanistic care shown in the novel. The story of "High Mountain" is somewhat disadvantaged when placed in literary creation.

Because it’s impossible not to praise heroism in this type of war-themed work, but I think you handled it very well here.

The focus of the novel has shifted from simple military narrative to conflict and dramatic treatment, and it has also incorporated a strong tragic color and deep humanistic care.

Finally, the thinking about the cost of war and the value of life is very profound, especially in exploring the significance of military personnel’s sacrifice and their responsibilities to their families, which raises acute social issues.”

Liu Zhenyun talked eloquently about the content of the novel, which was very different from his usual somewhat silent image. Lin Chaoyang laughed and joked: "As expected of a Chinese major, his analysis is clear and logical!"

Liu Zhenyun was a little embarrassed, "To say this in front of you, the author, is just a trick."

You see, this is how a normal person should react when the author talks about his work.
