Chapter 507 On Bragging

Xu Zechen was not a student of our school, even if he violated some regulations, Liang Huishi and the others couldn't give him any substantial punishment. The most serious thing was to call Huaiyin Normal University to talk about it.

However, Liang Huishi didn't mean to make a phone call. Today's incident did not cause any bad effects. If it really went online, it would appear that their school is stingy.

"Go away, don't do this next time."

Xu Zechen blinked: "Teacher Yu Dong and the others will come next time?"

Yu Dong smiled and said, "You paid for two meals, plus round-trip fare, just to see us?"

Xu Zechen replied: "This is the main purpose. I am from a small place, and I want to come to the provincial capital to see the world. Also, I want to see how Jinling Normal University is doing. Maybe I will come here to study next year."

"Oh?" Liang Huishi became interested, "You want to come to our school for the postgraduate entrance examination?"

Xu Zechen shook his head, "No, our school has a place to come to your school, and I'm going to fight for it."

"That's even more difficult than the postgraduate entrance examination." Liang Huishi smiled, "I wish you good luck."

Then Liang Huishi looked at Yu Dong again: "Mr. Yu, it's time for us to move to the conference room."

Yu Dong glanced at Xu Zechen, nodded, "OK."

Yu Hua seemed very interested in Xu Zechen, patted Xu Zechen on the shoulder and said, "Young man, if you want to see us, go to Jinyi if you have time, I welcome you anytime."

Xu Zechen's eyes lit up: "Teacher Yu Hua, don't you have time today?"

Yu Hua's hand patting Xu Zechen's shoulder stopped suddenly, his expression was slightly stagnant, he was just saying a polite word, but Xu Zechen beat a snake with a stick and forced him to come forward.

"Uh, I'm afraid I can't do it today. Today's event is not over yet." Yu Hua shook her head.

"What about tomorrow?" Xu Zechen asked again: "Tomorrow I will still be in Jinling."

The corner of Yu Hua's mouth twitched. He had never seen such a straightforward young man as Xu Zechen, but he had already spoken, and now he couldn't take it back.

Yu Dong and the others were silent, completely watching the show.

After thinking about it, Yu Hua said, "Okay, you go to Jinyi tomorrow morning, and I'll take you shopping."

"Thank you, Teacher Yu Hua, I won't bother you." After speaking, Xu Zechen ran away in a flash.

Yu Dong looked at Xu Zechen's back, and said with a smile, "It's better to be a young man, with numb legs."

Bi Feiyu also smiled: "Isn't it? Not only are the legs and feet numb, but the mouth is also very numb. Look at just now, some people were blocked by him at once."

Yu Hua knew that the two were yin and yang, rubbed his face, and said, "I think this young man is not bad, and it would be nice to take him for a walk in Jinyi. I am different from you, I care for young people very much. "

……

The next morning, Xu Zechen arrived at Jinyi early in the morning.

Because Yu Hua didn't give a password to enter the school gate, Uncle Zhou had to call Yu Hua to ask about the situation.

Yu Hua hadn't woken up yet. Chen Hong answered the call. Hearing that it was for Yu Hua, Chen Hong called to the back room, "Yu Hua, I'm looking for you."

"Who?"

"Master Zhou in the reception room."

Yu Hua ran to answer the phone sleepily, and after listening to Uncle Zhou's words, he remembered the agreement he had made with Xu Zechen the day before.

"Uncle Zhou, let him in."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Hua hurriedly dressed and washed, and when Xiao Fang sent Xu Zechen downstairs to the faculty apartment, Yu Hua happened to walk to the edge of the balcony.

"Xu Zechen, here."

Xu Zechen looked up and saw that it was Yu Hua, he smiled and waved back, "Teacher Yu Hua, I'm here."

"Come up." Yu Hua waved to Xu Zechen.

When Xu Zechen came up, Yu Hua smiled and said, "I thought you would come later."

Xu Zechen said embarrassingly, "I'm in a hurry to take a look. I didn't disturb your rest, did I?"

Yu Hua waved his hand, "No, I always get up early. As I get older, I feel less...have you had breakfast yet?"

"I've eaten, Teacher Yu Hua."

"Have you really eaten it? If you haven't eaten it, you can deal with it at my house. We haven't had breakfast yet."

"I've eaten too much, Mr. Yu Hua, you're welcome."

"Okay, come in and sit down for a while, after I finish eating, let's..."

In the middle of Yu Hua's speech, Mo Yan came out of the house, looked at Yu Hua with a smile, and said, "Yu Hua, you got up so early today, Tianyang came out from the west? Oh, it's Xiao Xu."

"Teacher Mo Yan." Xu Zechen hurriedly greeted him.

After being dismantled by Mo Yan, Yu Hua didn't take it seriously, and said without blushing, "Early or late is just a relative concept."

"Yes, yes, yes." Xu Zechen nodded again and again, "Teacher Yu Hua is right. For example, I didn't sleep last night because of nervousness, and I only squinted for a while at five o'clock in the morning. It's hard to say whether I went to bed early or late. It is said that I went to bed early, but this sleep was delayed for several hours. If I said that I went to bed late, it was morning. So early or late is relative."

Hearing Xu Zechen's words, Yu Hua gave a thumbs up, "That's right, you're savvy."

Mo Yan silently rolled his eyes. What Xu Zechen said sounds a bit oily, but he can always speak it out in a serious manner. After all, we just met him, and it's not clear whether he is really straightforward or cautious.

After Yu Hua had brought breakfast, she took Xu Zechen to knock on Yudong's house one by one, and called them all out, insisting that they also accompany Xu Zechen to school.

Yu Dong himself was interested in Xu Zechen, so he agreed readily, while Bi Feiyu and Mo Yan had no choice but to agree because of Yu Hua's quarrel. In the end, the four of them accompanied Xu Zechen, who was under 20 years old, in Jinyi wandered around the campus.

Although it was the weekend and the time was relatively early, there were already many students on the road.

Seeing Yu Dong and the others surrounding a student in his teens and 20s, these students were a little curious, and guessed who this was, so they let Yu Dong and the others accompany him.

Being stared at by Jin Yi's students, Xu Zechen felt a little shy, his face that was not originally white turned red and black.

Yu Hua looked at his red and black face with great interest, and said with a smile, "How strange, a person who dares to break into other people's school auditorium alone can't see other people's eyes?"

"Teacher Yu Hua, I'm actually quite introverted." Xu Zechen said solemnly, "It's just that occasionally some crazy thoughts flash through my mind and I make some crazy moves."

After getting in touch for a while, Yu Dong and the others have gotten used to Xu Zechen's serious and dark humor.They didn't think anything of accompanying a student on a school tour.

It's true that the few of them haven't visited school together so early in a long time.

Halfway there, Bi Feiyu asked Xu Zechen, "Xiao Xu, how many places does your school have for Jinling Normal University?"

Xu Zechen shook his head: "Not many, one in a thousand."

"It sounds quite difficult."

Xu Zechen smiled: "Actually, it's not difficult. It's much easier than going to Jinling Normal University in the college entrance examination. So, I'm lucky to catch up with this good opportunity."

Yu Dong and the others nodded. Xu Zechen was right. The gap between Huaiyin Normal University and Jinling Normal University is very large. If it is the college entrance examination, almost no one from his school has any hope of being admitted to Jinling Normal University.

But now, one in a thousand people can get in, and the competitors are all students from Huaiyin Normal University, so it is much simpler.

Yu Dong didn't know much about Xu Zechen's academic qualifications, but he only remembered that he graduated from the Chinese Department of Peking University.As an existence who can wrestle with the Chinese Department of Yan Normal University, Yu Dong will naturally pay more attention to the Chinese Department of Peking University.

"Actually, before this year, I always wanted to be a lawyer."

Yu Dong and the others looked at Xu Zechen, waiting for his next words.

"I wanted to be a lawyer for a long time, but then I was admitted to the Department of Chinese. At the beginning, I was very confused and didn't know what to do all day long. In fact, I didn't do very well in Chinese in the college entrance examination, and I almost failed. I just thought, what's the use of going to the Chinese department for a person like me? I'll be a Chinese teacher in a primary and secondary school in the future, just to dawdle. But at the end of last semester, I started to go to the library and read A lot of literary works gradually have some ideas.”

"I have read the books of several teachers. As long as they have been published, I am sure that I have read them all."

"Then after reading these books, do you know what you are going to do?" Yu Hua asked.

Xu Zechen shook his head: "I still don't know what I want to do in the future, but I have become interested in literature, and my thoughts have changed accordingly. Perhaps it is also a very good thing to be engaged in literature-related work in the future."

Hearing Xu Zechen talk about his mental journey, Yu Dong and the others didn't say much.

Today's incident was very strange, but it was a student I met yesterday when I was doing an activity. Today, the few of them even accompanied him around the campus, and heard him talk about a lot of teenagers' thoughts.

Yu Hua patted Xu Zechen on the shoulder: "Do it well, you are lucky, you can ask, which Chinese department student can get this kind of treatment, and let us go to school with you?"

Bi Feiyu curled her lips: "You are the only one, so you have to drag us together."

"Isn't it good to come out and breathe the fresh air? Besides, I think Xiao Xu is a good guy, and he will definitely make achievements in the field of literature in the future. Maybe his achievements will surpass us in the future." Yu Hua said with a smile .

Hearing this, Yu Dong raised his eyebrows.

Whether Xu Zechen can surpass Yu Hua and the others in the future, Yu Dong is not sure, but Xu Zechen's achievements are indeed not small.He didn't expect Yu Hua to be able to see this.

Yu Dongzai sized up Xu Zechen carefully, but he couldn't see anything special about this kid from head to toe.If you don't know Xu Zechen's future achievements, in Yudong's eyes, Xu Zechen is just an ordinary student.

……

Although Xu Zechen was upright, he was not a person who didn't know what to do. He followed Yu Dong and the others for a while, and took the initiative to leave before it was time for lunch.

After Xu Zechen left, Yu Dong couldn't help but asked Yu Hua, "How do you know that he can make achievements in literature in the future?"

Yu Hua smiled and said, "It feels like, as long as he is willing to take the path of literature, he will definitely not be bad in the future. You have to know that the level of Huaiyin Normal University is not very high, and he is only a freshman, but he can have such a mind, which proves that He is talented in literature, and his heart is a little more delicate than ordinary people. In addition, the most important point, I think he is very good at bragging."

"Bragging?" Bi Feiyu looked at Yu Hua in surprise, "What kind of reason is this?"

"In my eyes, all those who can brag are talented in literature. Like you, like Mo Yan..."

Mo Yan replied, "It's like yourself?"

Yu Hua nodded with a smile, "That's right, it's also like myself."

Although Mo Yan and the others didn't want to admit it, what Yu Hua said was quite reasonable.

The category of literature may be too big, but those who write novels are basically good at bragging.

Even Ruan Xiaohu, who is generally recognized as introverted, has a way of bragging after getting used to playing with his peers.

Being able to talk about the sky and the ground at the same time can be said to be the basic quality of a writer.

In Su Tong's words, if you can't talk about anything, then you can write a fart novel.

……

The matter of bragging was originally a joke discussion between Yu Dong and the others, but what Yu Dong didn't expect was that Yu Hua actually wrote an article "On Bragging" after returning home, and shared their remarks about bragging. integrated.

After finishing writing, Yu Hua showed it to Su Tong. Unexpectedly, Su Tong immediately made a decision: "Zhong Shan" has used this manuscript.

This matter was nothing at all, but after Yu Dong and the others knew about it, they were unwilling, because many of the "On Bragging" were based on their usual bragging. You can see what they are saying.

But Yu Dong and the others did not stop Yu Hua from publishing, but instead wrote an article to "revenge" Yu Hua.

Bi Feiyu wrote an article called "Blowing Up", which made Yu Hua's remarks about bragging into a set of theories, and wrote it out in an academic research tone.

Mo Yan wrote a novel "The Divine Cow", which talked about the harm of bragging and warned people not to brag.

Yu Dong wrote the novel "Country of Cows", in which a man named Huayu strays into the country of cattle. The law of this country is to brag, and anyone who doesn't brag will be punished by law.

But people in this country hate bragging because they have been forced to brag for a long time, so many people don't like bragging.

Some people would rather not talk all day than brag, and some people, in order not to brag, took to the streets to protest this law.

Originally in his own country, Hua Yu was disliked by the surrounding people because of his love of bragging. Now that he is in Niu Country, he is naturally like a fish in water.No one here expected that there would be such a bragging person.

Later, with his superb bragging skills, he successfully entered politics in the country of Niu, and rose step by step, eventually becoming the leader of the country of Niu.
