Pei Yue changed his surname and now became Tan Yue. Tan Xingguo and Bai Churong wanted to formally introduce him to their relatives and friends.
Mr. Tan's family was a tenant farmer. He was the fourth of nine children in the family. His family was so poor that he herded cattle for the landlord's family at the age of six just to eat. Later, he couldn't survive anymore and went to the city to work as an apprentice at the age of thirteen.
, due to fate, I will join the organization and make revolution.
Because of the war every year, Mr. Tan had nine brothers and sisters. Apart from him, only one younger brother survived by the time of liberation. His younger brother died of illness more than ten years ago, and only the youngest of the three children stayed in the Sijiu City Prison.
Bureau work.
Tan Xingguo and Bai Churong said: "I called Uncle Liao this afternoon and he said that the third child will not come back soon. But since he has changed his surname, he should find an opportunity to meet everyone."
Forget about the marriage recognition ceremony, it was too high-profile, and he didn't think Tan Yue would like it either.
Bai Churong also felt that it was indeed time to show up, but he didn't need to be too deliberate: "It will be the old man's seventy-third birthday in two months. Then we will invite all the uncles to our house for a meal."
It's just right to introduce Lao San to everyone.
Tan Xingguo hummed and said: "Although the third child has changed his surname, he is still full of resentment towards the old man. He may not come to the old man's birthday party. We have to ask Tian Shao to help persuade the third child."
He had long discovered that this younger brother followed Tian Shao in everything. If Tian Shao agreed to this, there would basically be no problem with the third child.
Bai Churong nodded and said that he would ask Tian Shao to meet to discuss the matter. He thought it would be a simple matter to ask Tian Shao to meet him. After all, college students have Sunday off, but they failed to make an appointment twice. It was not a job search.
The reason was no longer showing off, but she was really busy.
There were a lot of things going on in school as she was about to graduate, and she had to keep an eye on the progress of several comics under her name. She was really busy. Bai Churong didn't have anything particularly important to do, so it was naturally impossible for Bai Churong to make a special trip back to the city for her.
Bai Churong and Tan Xingguo said: "I will go to Beijing University tomorrow afternoon to find Xiamian Shao and talk to her about this matter."
Tian Shao was busy with business. She was relatively free at work anyway, so she had better run over and settle the matter earlier. Otherwise, the old man wouldn't be able to respond when he asked.
"Thanks a lot."
Bai Churong shook his head and said it was not hard. Instead, he told Tan Xingguo to take care of his health. Tan Xingguo has been busy these days and has not been home for the past few days.
Tian Shao saw her and invited her to the room in the teacher's building. After pouring her a glass of water, Tian Shao asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, if you need anything, just call me, why do you have to make a special trip?"
?”
Bai Churong told the story about the old man's seventy-third birthday. After finishing speaking, he said: "Xiaotian, everyone outside now knows that the third child has changed his surname and recognized his ancestors. When the old man turns seventy-three next month, his relatives and friends will come.
It just so happens that everyone can get to know Lao San."
Tian Shao refused as soon as she heard it. She said: "Sister-in-law, Pei, Tan Yue is willing to change his surname because the things his adoptive father did are disgusting. After approval, he does not want to use this surname anymore. It does not mean that he has forgiven you."
Old man."
It can only be said that compared with his biological father, his adoptive father was slightly better than his biological father. And Tan Yue knew that she didn't like the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt, so she gave up the idea of changing her surname to Mu, so she couldn't let Tan Yue suffer.
.If Mr. Tan doesn't give Tan Yue an explanation for a day, they won't go see him.
Bai Churong's expression paused. She thought that what happened before she changed her surname had changed, but she didn't expect that it was not the case: "Xiaotian, the old man was indeed wrong about what he did before, but for the sake of his age, don't worry about it."
The knife hadn't pierced her body, but she didn't know how much pain it would have caused, so she lightly said the words "don't care about it." She was deeply hurt by it, so she could understand Tan Yue.
Tian Shao shook his head and said: "Whenever you are willing to give us an explanation, we will go there. Otherwise, Tan Yue and I will only go when that day comes."
That day was naturally the day that Mr. Tan died.
Bai Churong wanted to persuade her again, but the phone rang.
Tian Shao answered the phone and heard Lou Ziyu talking there for a while and then said: "The reason why that small plot needs to be deleted is that it is very abrupt because it is not connected, and it is not in line with the character of the male protagonist."
If it were written like that, the male protagonist's character would collapse.
Thinking that Bai Churong was still here, Tian Shao no longer wanted to listen to her advice to persuade him to be more generous with Tan Yue. He deliberately pretended to be very irritable and said: "Forget it, I'll come over now. Let's meet and talk."
After putting down the phone, Tian Shao looked at Bai Churong and asked, "Sister-in-law, is there anything else you can do? I have something to tell you. If not, I would go to the studio now."
Bai Churong knew that today's matter could not be reached, so he wanted to ask Tian Shao to have dinner on Sunday.
Tian Shao said apologetically: "Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry. I have something to do on Sunday. Don't be in a hurry to eat. Anyway, sister-in-law will be in Sijiu City from now on. We will make an appointment after I graduate."
After Bai Churong returned, he said to Tan Xingguo: "I saw a lot of drawings on her desk. These drawings include characters, strange costumes, and all kinds of weird weapons-like things. What exactly is she drawing in this cartoon?"
She knew that the comic books drawn by Tian Shao were not only popular in Hong Kong City, but also sold in many places such as Sakura Country and Bangzi Country, but she had not read these comics.
Tan Xingguo didn't read it either, and said, "If you want to know, I'll ask someone to go to Hong Kong City to buy you a copy."
Bai Churong didn't take it seriously before, but now she is a little curious: "If my family has it, why should I ask someone to buy it? When I see Xiao Shao next time, I will ask her for a share."
It's not that I'm reluctant to spend the money, a little book doesn't cost much, but I don't want to owe others such a personal favor.
Tan Xingguo did not refuse, but just reminded: "Oda's comics are quite expensive, so you should also send some good things over there."
"Very expensive? A comic on the market only costs two or three cents. No matter how expensive it is, you can still sell it for one yuan."
Tan Xingguo actually went out of his way to find out more about it. He said with a smile: "The newspapers and periodicals in Hong Kong City that serialize comics cost 2.5 yuan per copy, but this comic costs 25.6 yuan per copy."
When converted to mainland prices, the price is more than eight yuan. I am afraid that no one in the mainland would be willing to spend so much money to buy a little book. I have to say that people in Hong Kong are really rich.
Bai Churong's first reaction was that it was outrageous. When he was sure that this matter was true, he suddenly felt that his knowledge was shallow.
Tan Xingguo said with a smile: "I was shocked when I heard it for the first time. No wonder this girl insisted on going to Hong Kong City to open a company. Here, even if the sales are good, the sales will be hundreds of thousands a year at most.
"
But in Hong Kong City, Tian Shao's annual profits from one comic book are tens of millions. In the past two years, the number of comics has increased and his profits have increased several times.
After hearing this, Bai Churong became more and more interested in seeing what Tian Shao's comics were about, so they sold so well.
