When Zhang Boming left, Jing Yulan found that there were only two people left in the room, and her thinking was still in the shock of the 2,000 yuan manuscript fee, and she asked without words at the moment: "What article did you write for Science Illustrated, such a high manuscript fee?"

"A popular science article, called "Biosphere", has tens of thousands of words, so the manuscript fee]" Yang Rui put away the manuscript fee notice and passbook, and whether he can continue to eat meat in the future depends on them. Although the WestJet factory gives a lot of money, it is inconvenient to expose, moreover, the Chinese registered a company in Hong Kong, legal or illegal are also two words, revealing that it is troublesome.

"Do you have Science Illustrated here? I'll take a look. "Jing Yulan can't leave now, it's better to find something to do.

Yang Rui nodded and took out a few copies of Science Illustrated from the bookcase. Before he wrote the article, he bought a copy of Science Illustrated to read the style of the article, and then bought two more copies, and he never read it since. Compared with the science fiction of later generations, the science illustrated magazines of the 80s were not advanced enough.

Jing Yulan is a girl who studies literature, she only reads literature and does not read science, but she also reads with relish. The entry point of "Biosphere" is very good, and it is happening in a foreign country, and Yang Rui's popular science article can be published in a national magazine, and the readability is naturally not weak.

The magazine even asked Yang Rui for a manuscript, but unfortunately he had already earned his first pot of gold at that time and began to prepare for the publication of papers, so he had no time to tinker with the novel.

Compared with biology and papers, Yang Rui is far from being good at novels, and he has put more energy and time into novels, and he doesn't want to touch them at all.

Jing Yulan looked interesting, and asked two sentences from time to time, both in Chinese and in English, and Yang Rui answered in general English.

Seeing the middle section, Jing Yulan also became interested in the Biosphere 2 made by the Americans, and asked Yang Rui to explain to her in English what is a "miniature artificial ecological circulation system that simulates the earth's environment".

For this kind of professional English, Yang Rui is better at than daily conversations, and spits out a large number of professional terms in one breath.

Jing Yulan was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she was convinced: "You have checked a lot of books, right? When I wrote this article at that time, it was not easy." ”

"Alright, you're asking about what I'm good at. Yang Rui said half-truthfully: "I have liked biology since I was a child, and I have prepared a lot of biology-related words when I read biology papers and the like. This article was also written after reading foreign papers. ”

"No wonder it was published in Science Illustrated. Jing Yulan still admires this.

Science Illustrated has a circulation of more than 1 million copies per issue in China, which is a rather frightening number, with a rough estimate that at least tens of millions of people read it per issue. It wasn't until 2005 that this number was broken again, and in the 90s, the best magazines in the country sold only 100,000 copies, and many magazines closed down because of this.

Zhang Boming also left gloomily because of this. As a literary and artistic youth, the weight of "Science Illustrated" is quite heavy, the influence of the magazine in the 80s on people's thinking, the occupation of people's time, and the occupation of people's information channels are unprecedented.

Although "Biosphere" has Yang Rui's past experience, it is completely written by himself.

When it comes to this article, Yang Rui is also quite proud.

Jing Yulan refreshed her perception of Yang Rui, and the issues discussed by the two slowly deepened.

By the time a pot of mutton was fully cooked, Yang Rui's understanding of Jing Yulan had tripled.

"Let's eat by the stove, that's the dish anyway. Yang Rui pinched the time, opened the lid of the aluminum pot, put salt, stirred it again, and said with a smile: "It seems to be a success, let's chat while eating, when it is a fireside conversation." ”

"Roosevelt's fireside chat?" Jing Yulan's eyes lit up.

"Yes. ”

"You know the fireside chat, where did you see that?"

"You can see it anywhere. Yang Rui replied cautiously.

Jing Yulan shook her head and said, "Now there are few students in the English Department who know about the fireside conversation, and many people still think that capitalism is immutable." ”

From a biological point of view, it is possible for cancer cells to be immutable, and neither the biological system nor the political system is possible. Yang Rui smiled and changed the topic.

Jing Yulan's attention was not on how Yang Rui obtained the information, and said, "That's right." Roosevelt's fireside chat is a clear proof of this, listening to his first seven fireside chats, they all talked about the New Deal, social, industrial and labor problems, and of course, the relief and revival that he has always emphasized, these are all reforms that capitalism is moving closer to...... I believe that the most important thing to talk about in Chinese society today is also social, industrial and worker issues......"

She obviously had in-depth thinking about this issue, and Yang Rui didn't bother, just let her talk to herself.

Talking, at some point, is also a way to straighten out your thoughts.

Jing Yulan may be able to publish a heavyweight paper on this.

Yang Rui wasn't worried that she would say the wrong thing or anything. Since the '80s, conviction for speech has little to do with the academic community, and scholars have discussed ideology or socio-economic issues in the form of essays, almost whatever they want. On the contrary, the mass media, once certain articles or excerpts are reprinted, often cause an uproar.

The reality is that some remarks that ordinary people can't stand at all are not even extreme in the academic world.

However, the price of freedom has always been the same. If you want freedom of speech, you have to put up with teenagers watching Playboy, if you go back to the Stone Age, you have to put up with your 9-year-old son in public, and your 11-year-old daughter having children.

While saying that the people can "say whatever they want", while demanding that "**** pornography" be restricted and blocked, that is not freedom, it is a privilege.

Under Jing Yulan's tirade, Yang Rui silently completed all the mutton quilts, then scooped up two big bowls, put them in front of each other, put the chopsticks again, and said, "It's scalded with hot water." ”

Jing Yulan woke up in shock, immediately shut up, and said, "I seem to have said too much. ”

Yang Rui knew what she was worried about, and said with a smile: "You are a professor at the Normal College, and you are talking about American politics, so you still use English, what does it matter?" ”

Jing Yulan thought about it, her body that had just tensed relaxed, and she shook her head and said, "The professor is relaxed, I am still a lecturer." ”

"As long as you are a university teacher, this is a talisman, and you will definitely have an academic discussion, and nothing will happen. Besides, the current political climate is not so tense. Yang Rui comforted him, the movement has just passed, and people still have all kinds of worries, and it is not surprising that Jing Yulan is afraid.

Jing Yulan nodded slowly and said, "I may have been influenced by my father, and when I talked about political issues, I was a little excited. Over the years, I have carefully avoided this kind of thing, but I didn't expect that I couldn't hold back from you. ”

"It's not just that you're excited when you talk about the political issue, I see that people now are excited when they talk about the political issue. Yang Rui pushed the bowl and said: "If you want to eat the staple food, there are steamed buns, I lost two in the oven, don't eat the staple food with potatoes, just eat meat, it depends on personal preference." ”

"Just eating meat?" Such a luxurious way of eating was obviously beyond Jing Yulan's expectations.

"I ate first. In order to avoid Jing Yulan's discomfort, Yang Rui first moved his chopsticks and chewed it while blowing.

He has to go for a morning run and exercise every day, and the energy consumed is not half a star. Later generations of fitness champions all relied on protein powder and the like to supplement nutrition, and Yang Rui had no place to buy these things, nor did he need to really exercise a bodybuilder-like figure, so he used a lot of meat to fill it.

After four or five catties of mutton are cooked, there is only more than half of the weight left, even if there is no Jing Yulan, Yang Rui will only eat two meals.

Jing Yulan was intensely affected by Yang Rui's rough way of eating meat, and also picked up a small rib, put it on her lips and bit it, the rich aroma of meat mixed with the mellow aroma of fat instantly woke up her taste buds.

"That's good. Jing Yulan sincerely appreciated it, and the speed of putting down the chopsticks quietly accelerated.

The lamb that is fried first and then stuffed is locked in the juices, so that after it is fully cooked, it is still tender and juicy, and the thin layer of fat is stuffed and half-melted, moisturizing the lean meat of different thicknesses, so that the grade of the whole meat is improved.

Yang Rui ate three bowls of mutton in one go before slowing down, and Jing Yulan, under his encouragement, also ate a full bowl of meat and potatoes, and her whole body was hot.

"I'll wash the dishes. Seeing that Yang Rui had eaten well, Jing Yulan took the initiative to ask.

"You're a guest......"

"Guests can also help, besides, I'm still your teacher, and I can't let you just keep busy. Jing Yulan took off her coat again, revealing her slender figure, put away the dishes, bent down to carry water, and washed it in the room.

Yang Rui moved his body, looked at Teacher Jing's plump ****, and lost his interest in helping.

Think of it as a welfare.,Tutor daily welfareの relaxation,It sounds very emotional.。

……

The visiting group came and went, as New Year's Day approached, fewer and fewer people came, more and more people left, and the halo hanging over Yang Rui's head for the first place in the preliminary examination seemed to have gradually disappeared.

Jing Yulan went back to school and came back the next week.

Zhang Boming regrouped, and heard that Jing Yulan had returned to Xibao Middle School, so he also followed.

Yang Rui couldn't catch up, but he didn't see him.

Jing Yulan and he continued to chat in English, and by the way, grammar was taught in English.

This is also a compromise method that Jing Yulan thought of, in English grammar, it is naturally more unclear, but from another aspect, it is more in line with Yang Rui's requirements. He can listen to it if he wants to, it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, just wait for Jing Yulan to talk about it next time.

Yang Rui has more free time, far more than Jing Yulan expected, the two spend a lot of time in English, and the relationship has gradually become familiar.

At the same time, Yang Rui's real room was reopened, and life was dull for two weeks in tension, and then it was disrupted by a phone call from the United Kingdom.

It's time for the WestJet facility to pay dividends at the end of the year.
