Chapter 283 Compared with Cheng Xuyuan, you are asking for trouble.
Coming out of the gate of Shuimu University, Cheng Xuyuan looked depressed.
After watching this movie, he only read the title. As for what the movie was about, he didn't have time to watch it.
Before the movie started, he was answering questions.
After the movie started, although most people went to watch the movie, there were still many students who were very enthusiastic about him and surrounded him to ask questions.
In this situation, his throat was smoking just by talking.
Fang Yuqing held Cheng Xuyuan's arm, her face full of excitement.
Although she only watched a quick preview of the movie this time, she felt an indescribable sense of pride when she saw that so many people were paying attention to Cheng Xuyuan on Shuimu's side.
"Why do engineering students also like poetry?" Fang Yuqing asked with a smile.
Cheng Xuyuan said: "This is normal. These students also need to learn literature before studying engineering."
"Besides, as far as I know, there are many people who write novels who have engineering backgrounds."
Cheng Xuyuan's view is based on his own situation in later generations.
Fang Yuqing didn't understand what Cheng Xuyuan meant by that. She smiled and said, "Jiang Donghai and the others have invited you to go to the movies next week. Are you going?"
Cheng Xuyuan waved his hand firmly and said, "I'm not going."
"This is not watching a movie, it's just letting their classmates come to see me, and they treat me like a monkey in a zoo."
Listening to Cheng Xuyuan's complaints, Fang Yuqing couldn't help laughing.
Neither of them returned to school because tomorrow was the weekend, so Fang Yuqing decided to go home, while Cheng Xuyuan rode a bicycle and accompanied her back to Shijingshan first.
The two chatted and laughed, and felt that the road was a little too close.
When returning from Shijingshan, Cheng Xuyuan rode his bicycle alone and felt that the road was a bit far.
After returning to his home in the Overseas Chinese Apartment, Cheng Xuyuan first took a nice hot bath, then boiled a pot of hot water for himself, and sat in the living room with a cup of tea.
The cool breeze comes in through the window, and the comfortable feeling is really enjoyable.
It was really worth it to exchange the five-year Nanyang copyright of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" for this house.
Although its appreciation potential is not as good as that of the Siheyuan, it is still the most comfortable place to live in now.
However, I still have to find a way to buy a few courtyard houses. Not to mention that leaving them there would make money like a golden hen laying eggs, just keeping the money now would be a considerable loss.
Now Cheng Xuyuan’s total royalties amount to more than 20,000 yuan.
Among this money, there are more than a thousand overseas remittance coupons.
The supplies from the overseas remittance vouchers ensured that Cheng Xuyuan had no worries about food and drink, and the door of the Friendship Store was always open to him.
Cheng Xuyuan casually turned on the color TV he brought with him, and all he saw was a field of snowflakes.
In Yanjing, we can only receive signals from two or three TV stations.
What a pity, it’s time for them to get off work.
After turning off the TV, Cheng Xuyuan somehow thought of the experience of traveling through time and space which lasted almost a year.
I copied a few books and some poems. Overall, my life was not hard.
Cheng Xuyuan fell asleep while lying on the bed and thinking about random things.
At 7:30 in the morning, Cheng Xuyuan, who had just finished writing the 4,000-word "Things about the Ming Dynasty", felt a little hungry.
In fact, although he already had the facilities to cook in the Overseas Chinese Apartment, he still decided to eat out.
Making a fire and cooking by yourself makes a lot of smoke and fire, which is not as good as going out and spending two cents to eat a bowl of meat-stuffed wontons.
Besides, we have bicycles.
After eating a bowl of wontons, Cheng Xuyuan strolled around the street for a while before returning to the Overseas Chinese Apartment with some noodles prepared for lunch.
Before he even entered the door, he heard someone shouting, "Cheng Xuyuan."
The voice was very familiar. Cheng Xuyuan turned his head and saw Shi Xuehong, who was wearing a green top and had short hair, standing outside the gatehouse.
Cheng Xuyuan still has deep feelings for this old friend of the Lying Down Duo.
Of course, it's just the relationship between friends.
"Xuehong, why are you here?" Cheng Xuyuan got off his bicycle and said jokingly, "I haven't seen you for a few months. You look more beautiful now!"
Shi Xuehong was not grateful for Cheng Xuyuan's compliment. Instead, she pouted and pretended to be angry, "If you want to say that I'm fat, just say it directly. Don't be so picky about words here. It's so annoying!"
Hearing this, Cheng Xuyuan felt a sense of emotion. It was indeed Sister Xuehong. She still spoke so straightforwardly.
He smiled and said, "You always think the worst of people."
"I'm telling the truth."
But at this time, Shi Xuehong didn't have time to argue with him. Instead, she pointed to the person next to her and said, "This is Zhao Hongwei, who works in the rubber shoe factory on our street."
Zhao Hongwei is not tall, but he has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks honest.
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Zhao Hongwei carefully, then smiled and said, "Hello, Hongwei. When Sister Xuehong and I were in the district cultural center, we were in the same office."
"She was very caring towards me at that time."
"This is not a place to talk, let's go to my house." As he spoke, Cheng Xuyuan said hello to the gatekeeper and brought Shi Xuehong to his home.
Shi Xuehong was not a person who had never seen the world, but she still widened her eyes when she saw the large house of the Overseas Chinese Apartment that was open from north to south.
"Cheng Xuyuan, is this the house you exchanged for a book?"
"Tsk tsk, if I had known that writing books could change my house, I would have gone for writing."
"Oh my, there are actually two toilets here. This is too luxurious. Where we live, all the toilets in the same building are shared..."
Hearing Shi Xuehong yelling, Cheng Xuyuan was fine, but Zhao Hongwei's face turned a little red.
While Cheng Xuyuan wasn't paying attention, he gently pulled Shi Xuehong, meaning to tell Shi Xuehong to be more careful and not to act like a frog in a well and make a fuss out of nothing.
Shi Xuehong snorted and said, "Cheng Xuyuan is one of us, there is nothing we can't talk about, why are you pulling me in?"
Cheng Xuyuan poured a cup of tea for the two of them, then smiled and said, "Sister Xuehong, how is our unit doing now?"
"What else can I do? My nephew is just holding a lantern. I'll just do it as usual."
"Since you left, Lao Ma can't write anything anymore, so I haven't eaten Donglaishun's hotpot for a long time."
"It would be better if you didn't go to college."
Shi Xuehong said with emotion: "Look at how many works have been produced since you left. I should treat you to all of them!"
Seeing Shi Xuehong stretching out her fingers to count how many times she had missed being invited to dinner, Cheng Xuyuan felt a surge of emotion. This Sister Xuehong had a really good memory when it came to eating.
However, when Cheng Xuyuan mentioned the Chengnan District Cultural Center, Shi Xuehong started talking about the topic.
From the two curators to Old Li who guards the gate, in a nutshell, this year has been a year of joy and everyone is doing well.
After asking about the recent situation of old colleagues, Cheng Xuyuan said: "Sister Xuehong, you came to see me this morning, not just to catch up with me, right?"
"Just tell me what's going on. We're not outsiders."
When Shi Xuehong talked about her former colleagues, her eyes kept flickering. Cheng Xuyuan knew that something was wrong with her, but she was just too embarrassed to say it out loud.
Facing an old friend, Cheng Xuyuan naturally would not embarrass her, so he simply broached the topic for her.
Shi Xuehong was organizing her words, thinking about how to tell Cheng Xuyuan, and when she saw Cheng Xuyuan bring it up, she said, "Xuyuan, Hongwei and I have been dating for a while, and we plan to get married this winter."
"But my mother insisted that Hongwei's family buy a TV."
"Not to mention that TV sets are very expensive, costing several hundred yuan, it's hard to get tickets for TV sets, it's really embarrassing!"
"But, with my mother's temper, if I don't do what she wants, our marriage might not be possible, so I came to you."
"I heard from Old Li that you have some overseas remittance vouchers. Can you lend them to me?"
After saying this, Shi Xuehong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She had no choice but to do so because of her mother's pressure.
Her mother had always looked down on Zhao Hongwei's family, thinking that Zhao Hongwei's family was average and his job was not that good, which was different from her own precious daughter. People always say that adopted daughters hope to marry into a wealthy family, but this time, she didn't marry into a wealthy family, but married into a poor family! Helplessly, Shi Xuehong was determined to marry Zhao Hongwei. In the end, she was forced by her daughter to agree to their marriage, but she still made all the necessary demands.
In this situation, Shi Xuehong and Zhao Hongwei tried various ways. Since they couldn't get any tickets, they placed their hopes on Cheng Xuyuan.
Facing the nervous Shi Xuehong, Cheng Xuyuan said, "Sister Xuehong, getting married is a good thing!"
"Everyone who gets married has to move around a lot. I just received a sum of money for my writing a few days ago, and the author even helped me exchange it for 500 yuan in remittance vouchers."
"Since you and Red Viagra want to buy a TV, just use it first."
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan's straightforward response, Shi Xuehong's face immediately showed joy.
She came to Cheng Xuyuan this time just to give it a try, but she didn't expect that Cheng Xuyuan would give her so much face.
"Thank you Xuyuan, thank you so much!" Shi Xuehong stood up suddenly with a slight tremor in her voice.
Although she has always been a carefree person, this marriage also made her feel a lot of trouble.
Especially since her mother's conditions had not been met, she and Zhao Hongwei were very anxious and angry.
Now, Cheng Xuyuan helped them solve the most difficult problem in one go.
Zhao Hongwei also said excitedly: "Xuyuan, after we get married, I will definitely return the money to you as soon as possible."
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Brother Hongwei, Sister Xuehong and I are good friends, there's no need to be so formal."
"Making a marriage is important, and we can talk about other things later."
After Shi Xuehong wrote a promissory note, she left the Overseas Chinese Apartment happily. The two of them originally wanted to treat Cheng Xuyuan to a meal, but Cheng Xuyuan declined on the grounds that he had something to do.
Under the current circumstances, Cheng Xuyuan could not let Shi Xuehong treat him.
If Cheng Xuyuan treated them to a meal, I'm afraid Shi Xuehong and Zhao Hongwei would insist on paying the bill.
After leaving the Overseas Chinese Apartment, Zhao Hongwei looked at the garden-like community and said with emotion: "I thought I was pretty good, but compared to others, I am so far behind."
"The factory only allocated me a dormitory, alas!"
Looking at Zhao Hongwei, who looked a little gloomy, Shi Xuehong patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, stop thinking about it here."
"There are very few people like Cheng Xuyuan, and he is not even on the same level as us. If you compare yourself with him, aren't you asking for trouble?"
"We just need to live our own lives well, not as good as the best, but better than the worst!"
"Let's go. It's Sunday. Let's go to the Friendship Store and see if there are any good TVs. Then we can bring them home and see what my mom says!"
Looking at Shi Xuehong striding forward, and then looking at the Overseas Chinese Apartment which was getting farther and farther away, Zhao Hongwei felt that what Shi Xuehong said made sense.
