Chapter 240: , Big Event (Please vote for monthly tickets!)

This time, Song Chunming and Liu Yu left Beijing with three things to do.

The first thing, confirm with Li Heng himself whether "The Original Landscape of Hometown" was original?

Although the two had done a lot of investigation before setting off, they still had to verify it face-to-face with Li Heng. This was a necessary process.

The second thing, invite Li Heng to the Spring Festival Gala.

The third thing, conduct a social background investigation, which in a sense is also commonly known as political review.

Was it original? Did that need to be asked?

After getting Li Heng's affirmative answer, Song Chunming was quite satisfied and took the opportunity to formally issue an invitation to the Spring Festival Gala.

Li Heng asked: "How many rehearsals?"

Ms. Liu Yu told him: "A total of 5 rehearsals before and after, the first rehearsal time is tentatively scheduled for January 15th, and it will last for about a month later."

Li Heng asked: "Recorded broadcast?"

Liu Yu replied: "Yes, recorded broadcast."

Li Heng had a bottom line in his heart, pretended to ponder for a while, and then agreed:

"Thank you to the country and the leaders for their appreciation, I am willing to contribute a meager effort to the Spring Festival Gala and shine for the Spring Festival Gala."

"Good!" Having this awareness at such a young age is quite good, Song Chunming was very satisfied.

After talking for half an hour, Li Heng left the Management School office.

Once he left, Song Chunming and Liu Yu immediately started the third item, background investigation.

The two had already planned the route, starting from the university, and then turning their eyes to Shaodong.

At Fudan University, with the old principal covering him, and the Management School secretary also knowing Li Heng's writer identity, naturally, they all spoke well of him and praised him highly.

For a time, they praised Li Heng to the skies, praised him as rare in heaven and unique on earth, making Song Chunming and Liu Yu dizzy.

Especially when the background investigation was about to end, the Management School secretary took the initiative to explode a mine: "Li Heng is the writer 'December'."

"So young and a writer? That's indeed not bad." Song Chunming didn't react at first and praised him casually.

Liu Yu's heart moved: "Which December? Is it that one from 'Harvest' magazine?"

Hearing this, Song Chunming tilted his head to look at his colleague, thinking this question was too outrageous and lacked level. Li Heng's hair below hadn't even grown fully yet, how could he dare to lean on that great writer?

But after all, they were colleagues, so he couldn't tear down the stage and pretended not to hear this ridiculous remark.

Unexpectedly, the Management School secretary nodded: "It's him."

Song Chunming and Liu Yu looked at each other, and the latter couldn't help but pursue further: "The one who wrote 'To Live' and 'Cultural Bitter Journey'?"

The Management School secretary nodded with a smile again.

Song Chunming couldn't care about being slapped in the face anymore, listening in confusion: "At his age...?"

The Management School secretary secretly said proudly: "Our Fudan has confirmed it again and again. If you two think it's incredible, you can contact 'Harvest' magazine directly."

What was the identity of the Management School secretary? Since he had said it to this point, how could it be fake?

Song Chunming and Liu Yu looked at each other, their brains buzzing, not knowing how they left the office?

Out of the Management School, the two tacitly went to the principal's office, and the answer was the same.

When leaving Fudan University, Liu Yu took a deep breath: "It should be correct. Li Heng is that great writer. No wonder a dignified secretary is so polite to him, this explains it."

After speaking, she paused and looked out the window: "Why do I feel like this sky is upside down?"

Song Chunming followed her to look up at the sky, and it took a long time before he popped out a sentence: "This is a great talent, did we neglect him just now?"

Liu Yu recalled the meeting process and finally said: "It was okay."

Then she asked: "Are we going to 'Harvest' magazine?"

"Yes, such a big thing, it's safer to go again," Song Chunming made the decision.

Returning to the classroom, Li Heng continued to attend the second English class.

At this time, Zhou Min in the front row passed a note. After taking it and looking at it, it turned out to be Li Xian's handwriting.

I saw the note written: Master, shall we eat together at noon?

Li Heng was speechless. Breakfast hadn't been long, and she was already thinking about lunch. Are you a foodie?

He replied: No time at noon.

Seeing Zhang Bing next to him rarely not taking English notes but rushing to write a letter, Li Heng reminded: "Old Zhang, the English teacher noticed you."

Zhang Bing hurriedly raised his head. Seeing Professor Yu's gaze really sweeping towards this side, he was so scared that he quickly put the letter into the drawer and then stared at the blackboard feignedly, but anyone with a discerning eye could see he was absent-minded.

Li Heng asked with concern: "Did something happen at home?"

"No, it's a good thing."

Zhang Bing's eyes showed excitement, and he lowered his voice to share the joy he couldn't suppress: "Just now Liu Yue gave me a family letter. When I opened it, it was written by my wife. She said she was pregnant, and the old Chinese doctor took her pulse and said she was pregnant with twins. Do you know? I'm going to be a father, and a father of two babies!"

Li Heng was stunned, twins? Becoming a father in his freshman year? Wouldn't the child be able to help buy soy sauce by the time he graduated from university?

After the surprise, he sent his blessings: "Twins are really a blessing, Old Zhang, congratulations!"

"Same to you, same to you!" After speaking, Zhang Bing touched the back of his head and then laughed foolishly: "I'm really too happy, I'm speaking incoherently."

In his previous life, Li Heng had been a father and could especially understand this feeling of becoming a father for the first time, "How is your wife's health now?"

"She's good. She said in the letter that she can eat and drink, can eat three big bowls in one meal, can go down to the fields to work, and can carry loads. Her body is very light, don't worry." Speaking of this wife who had no feelings, a tenderness flowed in Zhang Bing's eyes for the first time.

Li Heng said: "Work like digging soil and carrying loads is too heavy, your wife should still pay attention. If she really can't be idle and her hands are itchy, doing some needlework is the best."

In fact, in the countryside of this era, especially in remote areas, it was common for pregnant women to work in the fields. Some families in poor conditions even gave birth to children in the afternoon and were still in the fields in the morning.

He had even heard rumors that some careless pregnant women gave birth directly in the fields.

"Old Li, you're right. I've already written 3 pages of letter paper to persuade her. The three of them are my treasures now, so nothing can go wrong..." The usually steady Zhang Bing became a chatterbox today, whispering and chattering until the end of class.

As soon as the bell rang, Yu Shuheng decisively put the chalk in her hand back into the chalk box, packed up her textbooks, and announced the end of class.

This was the place where students loved her the most.

It was enough that she was beautiful, and she never dragged the class. Compared with those old professors, she was simply a clear stream.

Li Heng chased out of the classroom at speed and caught up with Professor Yu at the corner of the stairs, "Professor, I have something to tell you."

In the corridor and stairwell, there were people coming and going everywhere. Professor Yu nodded slightly to him, signaling him to follow her.

Arriving at the English teaching and research office, seeing no one inside, she sat down and looked at him, "About the Spring Festival Gala?"

Damn it! Insightful. He knew he couldn't hide it from her.

"Yes, someone came to find me before, and I agreed," Li Heng said.

Yu Shuheng pointed to the chair next to her, "Sit down and talk."

Song Yu and Xiao Han were top-tier beauties. Although Li Heng didn't want to look at the teacher in front of him, he didn't have the restraint and stuttering that other boys had when facing her. He pulled over a chair unceremoniously, sat down with a thud, and said: "Writer's business, sorry to trouble you, Professor."

Yu Shuheng said okay, then reached for the landline phone on the table and dialed a number, which was to Beijing.

As she pressed the number keys, Li Heng tactfully turned his head away and didn't look.

It was done in less than 2 minutes. She put down the receiver and said: "It's fine, you can study and write with peace of mind."

"Mm, thank you, Professor."

Li Heng said thank you, and then continued: "There is one more thing. The Spring Festival Gala group came and said that the solo of 'The Original Landscape of Hometown' might appear monotonous and not achieve the best performance effect. It's best to have accompaniment. And I don't know much about this aspect, Professor, what do you think?"

Not to mention, because the attraction of "The Original Landscape of Hometown" was enough, Yu Shuheng, as a music lover, had really pondered this aspect privately.

She pondered for a moment and gave a suggestion: "Piano is the first choice. Piano has great inclusiveness and won't steal the limelight of the clay flute. With it, the prelude and accompaniment will have a richer sense of layering.

Another is the violin, its sound quality is very compatible with the clay flute.

The combination of the three should be able to create a perfect musical effect and enhance the expressive power of the clay flute."

This suggestion coincided with Li Heng's idea.

As for the piano, among the people he knew in this life, three could play it, namely Song Yu's mother, Chen Siya, and Zhou Shihe. And in terms of level, Zhou Shihe was the best, and much higher than the other two.

The problem was that he and Zhou Shihe had only eaten together twice. He didn't know if she would be willing to help him with this favor?

As for the violin, Li Heng was confused and asked humbly: "Professor, do you know anyone who can play the violin?"

Yu Shuheng blinked, looked at his eyes, and a knowledgeable smile appeared on her face, and her whole person exuded a strong scholarly atmosphere.

Li Heng didn't react at first, then suddenly realized and asked happily: "Professor, you can?"

Yu Shuheng nodded with a smile.

She not only could play the clay flute and violin but also the guzheng, bamboo flute, and xiao, which could be described as multi-talented.

Li Heng immediately issued an invitation: "Professor, then come and help me."

Yu Shuheng said: "Is there any reward?"

"Re, reward?"

Li Heng's eyelids twitched, and he was heartbroken. You said you have such a family background, you lack nothing, and you still ask for a reward from me, a country boy? Are you embarrassed?

I am your student.

I am the student of your best friend, Teacher Wang.

He thought about it and asked tentatively: "Half a month's food? No, a week's food, okay? I'll make sure you eat comfortably. But you also have to help with the arrangement."

Yu Shuheng smiled elegantly and said: "Okay."

The violin was settled. Li Heng asked: "Piano, Professor, do you have any candidates to recommend?"

Yu Shuheng pondered for a while and finally said: "Zhou Shihe is not bad, her temperament is outstanding, and her piano skills are very high."

Li Heng: "..."

Wasn't this the same as what he thought?

Yu Shuheng seemed to see through his little thoughts and started to organize the books on the desk: "I'm not familiar with Zhou Shihe, you have to strive for it yourself."

"Hey, I'll go ask. If it really doesn't work, I'll ask Sister Chen for help." Seeing that this teacher's attention had shifted elsewhere, he realized he should leave. She already had the intention of seeing him off.

Leaving the teaching and research office, Li Heng stood on the corridor for a while and found that in the warm winter sun, many boys and girls were whispering in the corridor. As far as the eye could see, it was a harmonious scene.

Winter is here, spring is not far away, sigh, everything is recovering, and it's almost the season for animals to breed and mate.

How should I open my mouth to her?

After thinking for a long time, forget it, he decided to ask without any preparation. If it didn't work, then forget it. He was the protagonist, he was the star, it wouldn't matter much if the prelude was a bit worse.

Honestly speaking, it had been almost a year since his rebirth, and his life planning, cognition, understanding, and pursuit were changing bit by bit.

Now he was not only an enhanced version of his previous life, but also no longer satisfied with taking root in the class and vision of his previous life. He longed to expand his territory in this life and go to see the scenery in higher and farther places.

Not limited to the one-third of an acre of land in his previous life, only then would rebirth have meaning.

This was also the reason why he was tireless in being a writer, and why he tried hard to read and write to enrich himself and be a good writer.

Similarly, going to the Spring Festival Gala, which was unreachable in the eyes of ordinary people, was also based on this psychology. He wasn't greedy for how perfect the result had to be, he only sought a wonderful process.

Now he was going to seek an answer. Would Zhou Shihe agree?

Walking through the corridor, Li Heng went down the stairs and arrived at the door of Accounting Class 2.

Don't believe it if you say it, he had been in the Management School for so long, and this was his first time visiting a class. You know, those spirited young men in Dorm 325, let alone the Management School, had visited every department where beauties appeared several times.

Just from this aspect, he could really be counted as a good baby.

He didn't flirt with girls, it was all girls taking the initiative to write love letters. He didn't break peach blossoms, it was all peach blossoms stretching their branches over, and he kept restraint and didn't explore whether the peach blossoms at the fork of the branches were pink, red, or black. Hey!... Comrade Tian Run'e gave him a face that attracted people, and he was wasting it.

Li Heng's trait of bringing his own cloud-piercing arrow made the men and women next to him gather their eyes on him involuntarily when he passed by in the corridor.

Especially when he walked into Accounting Class 2 and arrived in front of Mai Sui and Zhou Shihe's seats, the attention reached its peak.

For a moment, the entire Accounting Class 2 was briefly silent because of his arrival, and then various people started whispering, and their eyes turned to him from time to time.

"Beautiful Comrade Mai Sui, good morning." He greeted.

Mai Sui smiled tenderly, the smile on her face was more romantic than mountain flowers, looking at him.

Li Heng tilted his right index finger 45 degrees towards Zhou Shihe in the side seat, "I came to find classmate Zhou Shihe for something."

Hearing this, Zhou Shihe stopped the fountain pen in her hand, and her gaze projected over, just colliding with his line of sight.

Ye Ning in the side seat feigned dissatisfaction and said: "Hey hey, Li Heng, I'm a big living person here, you just ignored me?"

Li Heng smiled and squeezed a sentence out of his neat, white teeth: "Classmate Ye Ning, people with weight have always appeared as the finale since ancient times, don't be anxious."

Ye Ning was puzzled: "Weight? You don't mean I'm fat, do you?"

Li Heng asked back: "Then do you think you're fat?"

Ye Ning shook her head fiercely, "Where am I fat? I'm even on the thin side."

"Indeed a bit thin, like a giraffe, with two eyeballs the size of red beans on a long neck," Li Heng teased.

"There's no such way to describe people."

Ye Ning complained, then asked curiously: "What's the matter with you looking for Shihe?"

Li Heng turned to Zhou Shihe, put away the joke on his face: "Classmate Shihe, can you come out? It's not convenient here, I have some private business to ask for your help."

Based on the favor of the 4-mao noodle money in the cafeteria, Zhou Shihe didn't hesitate, put down the fountain pen, got up, and followed him out of the classroom.

Before leaving, he said to Mai Sui and Ye Ning: "Oh, you two come along too, so I don't waste my breath saying it a second time later."

"Hee hee, Sui Sui, let's go, let's follow and see, see what the handsome guy is looking for the great beauty for?" Ye Ning was itching to know, and pulled Mai Sui and chased out with great force.

The corridor was crowded with people. As soon as the combination of Li Heng, Zhou Shihe, and Mai Sui appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of students on the opposite three floors.

Liu Yue saw this scene from a distance, and a strange thought suddenly popped into her mind: If Mai Sui and Zhou Shihe pried Xiao Han's wall corner, would her aunt be able to let go of her psychological burden?

Well, she didn't expect Zhou Shihe to take the initiative to pry the wall corner. Looking at that woman's words, deeds, and temperament, she shouldn't be able to do this. But what if Li Heng accidentally fell in love with Zhou Shihe?

Wouldn't it invisibly break the inherent obstacle of Xiao Han?

Liu Yue was really a bit anxious. When chatting with her mother at home the night before, her mother worriedly revealed a piece of news: Mother accompanied Grandmother to the temple to ask for a fortune for Aunt's marriage, and the result showed that Aunt's red phoenix had moved, but her vitality was insufficient. The monk said that if she missed this marriage, she might accompany the green lamp and ancient Buddha in the future.

Of course, this wasn't the monk's original words, but the meaning was roughly that.

Arriving at a deserted corner, Li Heng didn't talk nonsense and simply explained his purpose: "Someone from the Spring Festival Gala group came to find me today and issued an invitation to me to go to the Spring Festival Gala..."

The three women didn't interrupt, listening to him finish in surprise.

Finally, Ye Ning grabbed Mai Sui's arm tightly, shouting: "My god, it's really like what Professor Yu said, the Spring Festival Gala really invited you!"

"Why, Comrade Ye Ning, do you have any dissatisfaction with 'The Original Landscape of Hometown'?" Li Heng joked.

"No, no. I'm just sighing, hey, Li Heng, you're the same age as me, right? I'm still sleeping in class and ignorant, but you're going to the Spring Festival Gala, it's really people comparing with people, it's maddening." Ye Ning muttered.

Li Heng comforted: "They say school is where dreams begin, it's so good to sleep and dream in class, I support you."

Zhou Shihe and Mai Sui laughed, feeling that this person could pick up on anything.

After some banter, Li Heng looked at Zhou Shihe, waiting quietly for her decision.

Zhou Shihe thought for a while and asked gently: "I heard there will be rehearsals, at what time?"

Li Heng replied truthfully: "The first rehearsal is tentatively scheduled for January 15th, and it will last for a month later, with a total of 5 rehearsals before and after. Don't worry, you can definitely go home on New Year's Eve because it's a recorded broadcast."

Up to this point, everything that needed to be said had been said. Li Heng didn't over-babble to beg for help.

Because he felt that for someone like Zhou Shihe, if she was willing, she wouldn't hesitate too much. If she wasn't willing, wasting more words would be inferior.

Sure enough, after thinking for less than a minute, Zhou Shihe gave the answer and agreed.

"Thank you!" Li Heng's mouth curled up, very happy.

Seeing him like this, Zhou Shihe smiled knowingly, and then asked dignifiedly: "Is the arrangement done?"

"Not yet, I just got the news not long ago. This isn't it, I rushed to find you and Professor Yu. How about this, tomorrow is Friday, let's eat together at my rented house in the evening, let's get together and discuss it properly. In terms of arrangement, I want to hear your and Professor Yu's opinions," Li Heng said.

Since she had already agreed to help, Zhou Shihe naturally wouldn't refuse to eat and discuss. "Okay."

Seeing the two finish the big event, Ye Ning asked eagerly: "I heard from Manning that your cooking is super delicious, can you bring me, this foodie, along?"

"That goes without saying, you must come. If you don't come, the sky of Fudan University will collapse. You must show face and eat, this is my honor," Li Heng put his right hand on his chest and bowed to make a gentlemanly invitation.

Ye Ning covered her mouth and laughed.

Li Heng said to Mai Sui: "Notify Manning later, let's come together tomorrow night. Uh, you'd better come early and accompany me to buy vegetables."

"Mm," Mai Sui agreed.
