Chapter 170 Fair Lady
"Li Ye, there's your package down there."
Li Ye was washing clothes in the bathroom when a classmate from the next dormitory came over to inform him.
"Thank you! I'll go get it later."
"You're welcome, but Li Ye, you have so many mail packages."
The classmate smiled and left.
The semester is almost over, and Li Ye has become somewhat famous in this dormitory building.
One of the reasons, of course, is his handsome appearance and excellent temperament.
The second reason was that he received parcels and letters almost every week, so the rumor that "Li Ye received love letters all day long" was circulated from time to time.
In Wu Runfu's words, Li Ye is a "low-key show-off" who is always passively attracting attention.
After Li Ye finished washing his clothes, he went downstairs to get the parcel. He was seen by a few familiar-looking students, who encouraged him to open it and take a look.
"Li Ye, what's in your mailbag? It's so heavy? Let us take a look!"
"It's inconvenient, it's inconvenient, I'm sorry!"
Li Ye took the package and walked away on his own, which caused confusion among the classmates.
In fact, Li Ye is not stingy, it’s just that the things in this parcel are really not convenient to show to unfamiliar people.
These are the economics books and magazines that Li Ye entrusted Pei Wencong to send from Hong Kong Island.
If in a few years, when economics becomes a popular major, everyone uses foreign magazines to discuss cutting-edge economic topics in the world, that would naturally be a very positive behavior.
But in 1982, these topics were very sensitive.
In particular, the world economics major that Li Ye studied is one of the most sensitive majors.
After the college entrance examination was resumed in 1977, the Department of Economics at Kyoto University initially had only one major - political economy. It was not until 1980 that Kyoto University was the first in the country to offer Western economics courses.
However, this pioneering move was controversial and stressful, and was even investigated by superiors to analyze whether the direction of Kyoto University's Department of Economics was correct.
Then, many universities that followed Kyoto University's example and added Western economics courses were also implicated and criticized, and some even stopped offering Western economics courses.
"Liberalization of the market economy" was not achieved overnight, and it went through countless twists and turns.
The academic criticism of "bourgeois liberalization" lasted for several years until March 1983, when Dai Lao, the head of the Economics Department of Beijing University, published an article entitled "Research on Modern Western Economics and my country's Economic Modernization" in the Journal of Beijing University, proposing the attitude of "overall criticism and individual reference".
Then, the first official daily newspaper reprinted the article on half a page, and Western economics finally had a formal living space in this land.
Now it is 1982, and there is still some time before March next year. If Li Ye shows the magazines from abroad now, it will definitely attract some senior students to borrow them and then start a big discussion.
Li Ye does not reject such discussions or even arguments, but that would take up too much of his energy and time, so he would take these books and magazines to the courtyard of Zaojun Temple, read and study them before making a decision.
"Li Ye, brother, wait for me."
Li Ye went upstairs with the package, and Sun Xianjin hurriedly followed him from behind.
"Did you go to look for Jingjing? I didn't see you go to the cafeteria for dinner today?"
"No, brother, please stop making fun of me." Sun Xianjin denied it embarrassedly, then shook the newspaper in his hand and said, "Look, I got the first issue of the National College Student Economics Journal."
"You really found it? Let me see it."
It was initiated in the summer of 1979 by the Department of Economics of Peking University, together with the economics departments of seven other universities, including Nankai University, Xiamen University, Renmin University of China, Fudan University, Jinan University, and Wuhan University, and student academic groups from the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and was proposed to universities across the country.
Li Ye reached out and took the newspaper, and asked Sun Xianjin: "Where did you get this good stuff?"
The first issue of "National Undergraduate Economics Journal" is not just a newspaper. With the enthusiastic submission of economics students across the country, more than 40 articles with more than 90,000 words were selected and collected, which is of great commemorative significance.
"Brother, how can I not do what you asked me to do?" Sun Xianjin said proudly, "I bought it from Zhu Xianfeng, who is level 79, in exchange for five bags of candied peanuts.
I originally offered eight bags of candied peanuts, but Zhu Xianfeng put newspapers under the box to prevent moisture, so the condition was not very good. I argued with him for three minutes and cut it down to five bags.
"It's okay, but I don't know if Zhu Xianfeng will regret it in the future."
Back in the dormitory, Li Ye flipped through the articles written by students in the newspaper. It seemed that he could feel the enthusiasm and responsibility of "every man has a share of responsibility for the rise and fall of a country" between the lines.
【There are too many great masters. 】
This is Li Ye’s sincere feeling.
There are too many talented people among the college students of Class 77 and Class 78. Unlike Li Ye, they do not have the wisdom to see through the future, but their sharp thinking ability often surprises Li Ye.
In fact, it is not surprising if you think about it carefully. There were only 80 people in the Economics Department of Kyoto University Class of 1977. After a few decades, at least half of their names can occupy the front row positions in Baidu searches.
If you say that heroes are made by the times and that there is not enough wisdom and intelligence, then you are absolutely deceiving yourself.
Li Ye was flipping through the newspaper carefully, while Sun Xianjin was sitting there fidgeting.
After a long time, Sun Xianjin approached Li Ye and asked, "Brother, will you invite classmate Wen to attend the economics lecture tonight?"
"I didn't make an appointment with her today. I guess the topic of tonight's lecture will definitely be more controversial than last time. She doesn't really like that kind of noisy environment."
"Oh~"
Sun Xianjin sat back on the bed in disappointment, with his head down, looking very lost.
Li Ye sensed something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong, youngest? Are you looking for Wen for something?"
"No, no," Sun Xianjin said shyly, "Bian Jingjing said the other day that she was interested in the Economics Department, so I just wanted to invite her to attend the lecture.
But I always feel that it is too deliberate to invite a girl rashly. If you go with Wen, it will be very natural. "
"Oh, that's great, youngest brother. You've finally got it."
Li Ye smiled and said, "Then I'll go call classmate Wen tonight! Can you do me a favor?"
"Brother, I'll accept your favor," Sun Xianjin held up two fingers and said, "I've found out that Bian Jingjing and Wen both live in Building 17. When the time comes, let's go downstairs together to call them."
“.”
"Okay, there are no fools who can get into Beijing University."
. . . . . .
Li Ye and Sun Xianjin arrived at Building 17 at the same time and asked a girl who went upstairs to call Wen Leyu and Bian Jingjing to come down.
Then, the two of them saw a flash of a figure from two windows on the second and third floors respectively.
Wen Leyu came down in two minutes. Seeing Li Ye and Sun Xianjin together, he looked puzzled as if asking, "What are you doing with a light bulb?"
Li Ye smiled and said, "There is an economics lecture tonight. Would you like to go with me?"
"Okay, let's go!"
Wen Leyu nodded happily. Although she really didn't like noisy environments, since Li Ye called her, she would not object.
But Li Ye said, "Wait a little longer, we're waiting for another girl."
Wen Leyu was a little surprised, but when he saw Sun Xianjin standing beside him, he immediately understood.
Look at the anxiety and anticipation on that child's face. What else is there to not understand?
After five minutes, Bian calmed down.
Li Ye saw that the strands of hair in front of her forehead were a little wet, and immediately felt that there was still hope for Sun Xianjin.
Nowadays, if a girl can quickly wash and dress up before meeting a boy, it at least proves that she doesn't hate you.
However, Sun Xianjin's reaction was a bit slow, as if he was waiting for Li Ye to speak for him.
[Vonima, how about I serve you from start to finish? ]
After Li Ye glared at Sun Xianjin, the kid said hesitantly, "We are going to attend a lecture. You said you were interested in economics the other day, so would you like to go with us?"
Li Ye used his strong expression control ability to keep his facial expression unchanged.
The cold and indifferent Wen Leyu slightly raised the corners of her mouth, and finally turned her face away quietly. Her little shoulders trembled several times before she quickly regained her composure.
This made Sun Xianjin even more embarrassed.
However, Bian Jingjing said openly, "I'm already down here, so I must go and listen, right? But can you take me in? I heard that the lectures in the Department of Economics are always packed."
“Then you can definitely get in.”
Sun Xianjin made the promise and grinned happily.
The four of them walked all the way towards the small auditorium where the lecture was to be held.
Li Ye and Wen Leyu quietly fell behind, Sun Xianjin led the way with brisk steps, and Bian Jingjing naturally "walked as a pair" with Sun Xianjin.
At this time, Wen Leyu asked Li Ye in a low voice: "Is the youngest in your dormitory looking at Jingjing?"
Li Ye asked curiously: "You also know Bian Jingjing?"
Bian Jingjing was from the law department and her dormitory was on the second floor; Wen Leyu was from the English department and her dormitory was on the third floor. Li Ye didn't know how the two knew each other.
"Not really," Wen Leyu shook his head and said, "It's just that there are always male classmates looking for Bian Jingjing downstairs, and a few days ago someone even read a poem loudly to her downstairs, so we know her name."
Li Ye was stunned and laughed, saying: "A beautiful lady is always a good match for a gentleman. It seems that our youngest one needs to work harder!"
Wen Leyu glanced at Li Ye with his eyes slanted, and asked with a smile: "Graceful lady, this is the first time I hear you say this word!"
Li Ye felt something was not right when listening to Wen Leyu's words.
He never commented on girls before. Even though he was very familiar with Hu Man, Jiang Xiaoyan and others, he would never comment on whether they were pretty or ugly.
As a result, I said the word "fair lady" today and Wen Leyu noticed it.
Li Ye examined himself and felt that he had indeed said too much.
Bian Jingjing has some of the athletic beauties of later generations. She is quite pleasing to the eyes, so it is normal to praise her.
But Li Ye really just "appreciated" it and didn't have any improper thoughts.
Girls who practice high jump are recognized as a group of beauties in the sports world.
They are tall, slender, elastic and flexible. As girlfriends, they are pleasing to the eye and prestigious to be dragged out. As wives, they can pass on excellent genes to the next generation.
But an incident in her previous life made Li Ye realize that behind any beautiful thing, there are her bitterness and helplessness.
At that time, Li Ye had a friend who was a rich second-generation with whom he had a good relationship. The friend was a complete nymphomaniac and was desperately pursuing a girl who practiced sprinting.
The other party was reluctant at first, but he couldn't resist his friend's enthusiasm and finally succeeded in holding hands.
But after only two months, that friend cut off all ties with the sprinter girl and was determined to break up.
Everyone accused him of being heartless, including his close friends like Li Ye.
As a result, when he got drunk one time, the guy cried and said, "Who of you is willing to spend your whole life hugging a girl who is harder than a man?"
Later, everyone found out that the sprinter girl's eight-pack abs were as hard as steel, and she had good physical fitness and strong explosive power. In less than two months, she had destroyed the friend's man's self-esteem and beautiful dreams.
After that, this rich friend never touched the girl who practiced sports again.
In his words, loving sports and practicing sports are two completely different things.
For example, he pointed out the shortcomings of the three goddesses who hurdle later: "Turn off the lights, there are airports in front and behind, can you tell the front from the back?"
Li Ye and others immediately pulled out the video for identification and found that she was indeed different from an ordinary girl.
The human body has its perfect balance. When certain parts are strengthened, the rest will inevitably be destroyed and changed.
Among the three hurdle goddesses, only one of them has a little fat on her waist.
But a little bit of fat might affect your performance.
So in Li Ye's eyes, a girl like Bian Jingjing is completely different from his perfect Wen Leyu.
But now Wen Leyu was unhappy, and Li Ye couldn't talk nonsense, so he could only give a flexible explanation.
So he made eye contact with Wen Leyu and explained in a low voice: "The phrase 'a graceful lady' can only be used as a compliment from bystanders, and cannot be used directly on the girl you like.
How about I stop calling you Xiaoyu when I see you from now on and call you a pretty lady? Can you get used to it?"
Wen Leyu's face turned red, and she lost all her sharpness. She pouted and whispered, "I'm not a pretty lady."
Li Ye said seriously: "Everyone has a beautiful lady in his or her heart.
Even if she wasn't one before, as long as she lives in the boy's heart, she will be one.
What's more, my Xiaoyu is a pretty lady!"
Wen Leyu's beautiful eyes moved as she looked at Li Ye, who had a serious expression on his face. She sizing him up for a long time before she reached out and silently held Li Ye's hand.
Her hands were not big, but she clenched them tightly.
