Chapter 172 Lao Meng, Yuqing and I are together, you don't object, right?
It's really hard to have a Sunday every seven days.
Cheng Xuyuan lay on the bed in the courtyard of the District Cultural Association and didn't want to get up at all.
But he had to get up! It was just after six in the morning, and when he was half asleep, a scream suddenly woke him up.
Thinking something had happened, he quickly got up. Just as he was getting ready to rush out to take a look, the second sound was heard. Only then did he realize that someone was warming up his voice.
It’s worthy of being the family compound of the Writers Association!
If I had faced such a situation in my previous life, I would definitely not be able to tolerate it.
A Chinese quintessence, he cursed out as soon as he opened his mouth! However, in the current situation, everyone is seeing each other every day, so this kind of disturbing voice can only be endured.
Cheng Xuyuan, whose sweet dream was awakened, couldn't fall asleep again and had to get up.
After quickly taking care of his personal needs in the public restroom at the end of the building, Cheng Xuyuan began his morning writing.
I have already written more than half of "Lush", and I will be able to finish it in more than a week.
However, this article has been given to Liu Xinwu, and it will take several months to publish! The efficiency in the morning is extraordinary.
It’s just eight o’clock and I’ve already written three thousand words.
Cheng Xuyuan was reluctant to use the pen given by Mr. Wan, and he still used the pen he used every day.
After shaking his slightly sore wrist, Cheng Xuyuan walked out of the house.
Although I didn't show any courtesy at Fang's house last night, my stomach was still growling with hunger this morning.
A young body just can't stand hunger! "Xuyuan, did you come back last night?" As soon as I went down the stairs, I saw Niu Wanjia carrying the fried dough sticks upstairs.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Brother Niu, I came back almost eleven o'clock last night."
"Are you going to buy breakfast?"
Niu Wanjia raised the dough sticks in his hand and said, "The kids at home are greedy, so your sister-in-law asked me to go out and buy some."
"For this little bit of fried dough sticks, not only do you need money, you also need food coupons."
"To be honest, if I didn't have limited oil coupons at home, I would have fried them myself."
"Let's go home and have some food together."
For families at that time, fried dough sticks were a delicacy.
Not only does this thing cost eight cents a stick, but it also requires food coupons. Most people would definitely not be able to afford to buy it for breakfast.
Buying it will improve your life.
"Thank you, Brother Niu. I have something to do outside."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Wait until later, I'll go get you a drink."
Niu Wanjia did not refuse. After all, it was morning, not noon.
"Okay, let's find another time."
"Oh, I forgot to tell you that I have already reported to the Literary Gazette!"
At this point, Niu Wanjia's expression was filled with excitement: "The editor-in-chief still thinks highly of me and let me be responsible for the novel review page."
Cheng Xuyuan said: "Brother Niu, congratulations!"
"With your ability, you should be able to produce results soon if you are able to take charge of one aspect of the work."
"I think given the size of Literary Gazette, it's basically a foregone conclusion that you'll make further progress."
The two chatted for a while, and then Niu Wanjia happily went home with breakfast.
Cheng Xuyuan originally wanted to have noodles for breakfast, but when he smelled the aroma of fried dough sticks, he decided to have tofu pudding and fried dough sticks for breakfast.
Four fried dough sticks and a bowl of tofu pudding with chili peppers made Cheng Xuyuan very satisfied.
This meal cost less than 50 cents.
Riding on his bicycle, Cheng Xuyuan prepared to go look for Meng Dezhi.
Although the meal last night seemed delicious, Cheng Xuyuan felt that neither Fang Gengsheng nor Meng Fanjin were very satisfied with him.
He felt that the other party did not dislike him as a person, but was dissatisfied with the fact that he was divorced.
This seems understandable. After all, no one wants their young daughter to find a divorced man.
If he wants to break through the situation, he needs to win over more allies.
In his opinion, both Meng Dezhi and his wife are very suitable candidates.
If it were a normal day, Cheng Xuyuan could naturally go empty-handed, but this time he was asking for help, so Cheng Xuyuan had to bring something with him.
Arriving at the department store, Cheng Xuyuan took a look around and decided to buy some of the latest tea.
Now is the time when new tea is on the market. Cheng Xuyuan took a look around and prepared to buy some good Maojian tea.
But this tea not only has a price, but also requires a tea ticket.
Without a ticket, it’s useless even if you have money.
As a student, Cheng Xuyuan naturally did not have tea tickets. However, this did not pose a problem for him. After walking around the tea stalls in the department store a few times, people came to him to exchange their tea tickets.
Finally, Cheng Xuyuan came to Meng Dezhi's home on his bicycle, carrying half a pound of packaged Maojian.
Meng Dezhi happened to be at home. When he saw Cheng Xuyuan, he smiled and said, "You've been scolded badly recently, right?"
Cheng Xuyuan and Meng Dezhi have been friends for a long time, so they often speak very casually.
Hearing what Meng Dezhi said, he smiled and said, "I'm used to it!"
"But Lao Meng, just wait until the second half comes out..."
"What? Will you still be praised when the second half comes out?" Meng Dezhi asked back when he saw Cheng Xuyuan stopped talking halfway.
"When the second half comes out, more people will scold me." Cheng Xuyuan spread his hands and said with a smile.
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan who looked calm, Meng Dezhi felt helpless.
At this time, Mo Yunqi also came over and said, "Xiao Cheng, actually Desire is very well written, but do you know how many people scolded you for letting Liu Huifang and Wang Husheng get married?"
"When I write something in the future, I must also consider everyone's acceptance level."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Aunt Mo, I will definitely pay attention to it."
"Didn't I tell you that you can just call me sister-in-law from now on?" Meng Dezhi looked straight at Cheng Xuyuan and said with a smile.
He and Cheng Xuyuan are friends regardless of age difference. Cheng Xuyuan basically calls him "Lao Meng". He doesn't want his wife to be older than him.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Uncle...Meng, I think I should be more polite in the future."
"otherwise……"
When Meng Dezhi heard the words "Uncle Meng", a strange expression appeared on his face.
He said in a deep voice: "Cheng Xuyuan, did you not hold your fart well? I remind you, if you have something to say, speak quickly, if you have to fart, fart quickly, don't beat around the bush here!"
When Mo Yunqi heard this, he also became interested.
On weekdays, Cheng Xuyuan and Meng Dezhi are used to being casual with each other, and she also likes them interacting like this.
Now Cheng Xuyuan suddenly called the old man Uncle Meng in a serious manner, which made her feel puzzled.
What's the matter, Xiao Cheng?
Just when she was doubting, she heard Cheng Xuyuan say, "Uncle Meng, Aunt Mo, I went to Shijingshan for dinner last night."
"What's wrong with going to Shijingshan for dinner? I go there often..."
Meng Dezhi had only said half of his words before swallowing the rest.
"What are you doing, kid..."
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Meng Dezhi who was pointing at him, and said with a smile: "Uncle Meng, Yuqing and I admire each other, you won't object, right?"
"Cheng Xuyuan, I thought you were a gentleman, but I didn't expect that you are actually... so heartless!" Meng Dezhi took a breath and was about to pick up the copper paperweight he had placed on the table while speaking.
This thing is just a copper ruler. If it hits your body, it will definitely hurt!
Cheng Xuyuan didn't dare to let this thing hit him, he quickly said: "Uncle Meng, Yuqing and I are about the same age, we are both college students, what's wrong with us dating?"
"You...you are a married man!" Meng Dezhi pointed at Cheng Xuyuan and said sternly, "Don't you want to think about your own identity? How dare you lie to others so brazenly?"
Cheng Xuyuan said, "Meng, I've wanted to get a divorce for a long time. Isn't that what you told me? I can't get a divorce for now. Should I wait until the popularity of "The Pursuit of Happyness" dies down a bit?"
"What's more, although we haven't obtained the divorce certificate yet, we have already signed the divorce agreement!"
"In fact, we are already divorced."
After listening to Cheng Xuyuan's sophistry, Meng Dezhi shook the copper paperweight in his hand, but finally put it down.
He really wanted to say, how dare you attack my juniors, but looking at Cheng Xuyuan's young appearance, he finally swallowed the words.
Although he felt that Cheng Xuyuan was his friend regardless of age difference, in fact, Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing were of the same age.
"Old Meng, don't be so excited." Mo Yunqi came to Meng Dezhi and asked him to sit down while saying to Cheng Xuyuan, "Xuyuan, are you telling the truth?"
"Aunt Mo, how dare I talk nonsense about this kind of thing."
"Yuqing and I admire each other, so..."
Mo Yunqi did not doubt Cheng Xuyuan's words. Not to mention Cheng Xuyuan's versatility, just looking at the young man's appearance, he was handsome and imposing, exactly the ideal object that many young girls were competing for.
Fang Yuqing is beautiful and loves literature. For this kind of literary young woman, Cheng Xuyuan, who is good-looking and talented, is simply an irresistible killer.
Meng Dezhi also regained his composure at this time. He said with a hint of sarcasm: "You said you went to Shijingshan yesterday. Did that stubborn ass beat you up?"
Stubborn donkey?
Cheng Xuyuan stared at Meng Dezhi with wide eyes. At this moment, he felt as if he had deciphered something.
Looking at Cheng Xuyuan's surprised eyes, Meng Dezhi showed a trace of embarrassment on his face.
The way he addressed Fang Gengsheng was really not suitable to be revealed to the younger generation.
Especially younger generations like Cheng Xuyuan, who have a special identity.
"I'm asking you a question, speak up quickly." Meng Dezhi turned his embarrassment into urging.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Uncle Meng, I went to Shijingshan and received a warm welcome."
"Not only did Aunt Meng prepare a large table of dishes, but Uncle Fang also asked Brother Yuanfeng to take out two bottles of the fine wine that he had stored in the basement."
"I had a very pleasant conversation with Uncle Fang."
Meng Dezhi didn't believe such words at all.
He looked at Cheng Xuyuan with a teasing look and said, "Xiao Cheng, you said that stubborn donkey took out his treasured wine to welcome you. Tell me, what kind of wine is it?"
"I heard that his old comrade gave it to him. He kept it at home for more than ten years, but he never wanted to drink it."
Meng Dezhi was stunned! He knew exactly what kind of good wine Fang Gengsheng had at home.
Many times, he even thought about giving Fang Gengsheng's good wine to him.
It's just that there has never been this opportunity.
Now Fang Gengsheng was actually willing to use such good wine to entertain Cheng Xuyuan. He was the first one who didn't believe it.
But if it wasn't true, why did Cheng Xuyuan know that Fang Gengsheng's family had this wine? Fang Yuqing didn't care what was good wine and what was not.
He stared at Cheng Xuyuan for a few seconds, and finally sighed, "Xiao Cheng, if things were as pleasant between you as you said, I don't think you would have come to my place this morning."
Looking at Meng Dezhi who looked confident, Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Uncle Meng, it seems that nothing can be hidden from your eyes. I came here to seek your help."
"You wouldn't object to Yuqing and I, would you?"
