Chapter 453 452 "The Order of Appearance of Each Person You Meet in Life Is Really important.quot

Chapter 453 452 "Everyone you meet in life, the order of appearance is really important."

"Mr. Fang, I am very interested in this novel. I also want to translate it into English." At this time, Lin Lijun interrupted and turned to another novel.

"1986" written by Yu Hua.

"Yes, I am very familiar with this author, and I will authorize it to you on his behalf. I will contact him to explain the situation after I return to China."

"Mr. Fang, the literary level of this magazine you sponsor is very high, and I have become your loyal reader." At this time, Ge Haowen said again.

Fang Minghua chuckled: "Since you like it so much, Professor Ge, let's do this. On behalf of our editorial department, I will give you every issue of Yanhe magazine for free! Mail it to you!"

"thanks, thanks."

Ge Haowen was as happy as a child.

A few people chatted about literature again, which was quite enjoyable.

Seeing that the time was already past nine o'clock, Fang Minghua and Li Li said goodbye and left.

The two took a taxi and arrived near Demi's house. The lights were on and the surroundings were quiet.

"Brother-in-law, let's go for a walk again." Li Li invited.

So the two of them strolled along the street side by side, and Li Li took the initiative to talk about how she met Gal Haowen.

"I know Professor Galvan, who was introduced by Demi's father. He said that there is a professor at our university who is very keen on translating your Chinese writers' novels into English. You can talk to him."

"So I met Professor Ge and his wife, who is also a translation scholar. After listening to their words, I decided to stay in San Francisco and, like them, translate works written by writers from our country."

"In the United States, the influence of our country's writers is far less than the influence of American writers in our country. We all know Hemingway, Mark Twain, O. Henry, and Jack London. We have watched "The Old Man and the Sea", "Millions of Pounds" and " "The Police and the Hymn" and "Love of Life"."

"But ordinary American readers know very little about our country's writers. Guess which writer they know best?"

"who?"

"Zhang Ailing."

"She?" Fang Minghua was a little surprised: "Is it because Zhang Ailing has been living in the United States for a long time?"

"Yes, and she writes bilingually, and many ordinary American readers know her. So I think it is necessary for me to translate our country's excellent novels, especially the works of the younger generation of writers, into English so that more ordinary American readers can know about her. At the same time, I Teaching modern Chinese literature at the University of San Francisco is also a very meaningful thing.”

"Lili, you are great." Fang Minghua admired him sincerely.

"Is it great? I don't feel it, I just feel a little pride."

"It's certainly something to be proud of."

Li Li looked at the dusk night sky and suddenly changed the topic.

"My cousin has been more capable and smarter than me since she was a child. She is much better at dancing, singing, knitting, cooking, and even fighting. But I am clumsy and can't do anything else except study. ”

Fang Minghua didn't speak, just listened quietly.

"But now I am better than her. I can translate novels for you!" After the girl finished speaking, she turned her head and smiled sweetly at Fang Minghua.

Fang Minghua suddenly felt his heart tremble.

He didn't know what to say.

Li Li quickly skipped this topic: "By the way, brother-in-law, I have finished translating your "Crossing the Guandong" and now I am starting to translate a series of short and medium-sized novels you wrote, including the one you wrote "The Ring". I will try to translate it as soon as possible. Come out and publish!" Li Li finally said.

"thanks, thanks."

"Why are you being polite to me?" Li Li put her hands behind her back and walked briskly: "Let's go back. San Francisco's security is not very good at night."

That night, Fang Minghua stayed at Demi's house for the whole night. The next morning, he picked up his suitcase, said goodbye to Li Li, and prepared to take the train to Los Angeles.

Of course Li Li was going to see her off. She was sitting in Demi's Beetle and saw Fang Minghua getting on the bus. She still stood blankly on the platform until the train slowly left the station.

Demi stood beside her.

"Lili." Demi called.

Li Li came back to her senses and smiled: "Let's go back." After that, she walked towards the station outside.

"Lili, do you like your brother-in-law?" Demi suddenly asked.

"Yeah!" In a foreign country, Li Li finally said what she was thinking.

"But what I don't understand is that you said that you knew your brother-in-law earlier than your cousin? Why aren't you together?" Demi asked curiously.

Li Li's face turned gloomy after hearing this.

"I'm sorry." Demi quickly apologized.

"Actually, it's nothing." Li Li said slowly: "I was young at that time and didn't understand what love was. By the time I understood it, it was already too late."

"There is a famous female writer in my country named Yang Jiang. She once said this: "The order of appearance of everyone you meet in life is really important. Many people, if they met at another time, would have a different ending. Life is not at the right time, love is with the right person, and wherever you go, it is destiny. "

"As for me, I got up very early and rushed to the late market."

Seeing her friend's sad look, Demi quickly held her arm: "Okay. This means that there is no fate between you two! Isn't there an ancient poem in China: You were born before I was born, and you are old when I was born. ! Wait until I introduce you to an American boy who is as good as your brother-in-law!"

"How can this poem be used here?" Li Li was at a loss for words: "Come on, you don't have a boyfriend yet, your parents are so anxious, can you introduce me to someone?"

"I won't get married, I'm a bachelor!" Demi looked proud.

"Then I'll be a bachelor too!"

"Okay. Then we'll both be bachelors, living together from now until we grow old."

"Oh Demi, I'm not gay."

"Me neither, I'm a happy bachelor!"

At this time, Fang Minghua was sitting on the train to Los Angeles, enjoying the scenery outside.

The most beautiful scenery along the way. The waves hit the shore, the seabirds and the seascape suddenly hit the eyes, the summer coast near Santa Barbara has less sea fog, and you can see the most beautiful blue.

Fang Minghua was in a happy mood.

This trip to the United States, in addition to receiving the award, also did other things.

I bought American stocks and met good friends, Sun Lizhe and Emily.

It's a very pleasant thing to reminisce with old friends.

And to meet Li Li.

Li Li's decision was unexpected but reasonable.

Everyone has their own pursuits, and Li Li is undoubtedly a very opinionated girl.

But

I don't know if my wife will be disappointed if I tell her about it.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when Fang Minghua arrived in Los Angeles. After having a quick meal at a random place, he rushed to Los Angeles International Airport without stopping. He boarded a plane to Yanjing at eight o'clock in the evening and finally arrived at Beijing Capital International Airport at six o'clock the next morning.

He didn't stay in Yanjing, but bought a plane ticket to Xijing directly, arriving in Xijing at about twelve o'clock in the afternoon.

Finally home.

After leaving the terminal, he took a taxi straight to his home in Xingfu Community. When he took out the key and opened the door, he saw Song Tangtang in the living room.

Seeing her husband come back, Song Tangtang was overjoyed and immediately ran over to hug him.

The first sentence was: "Minghua, have you seen Lili?"
