Parental Love: Jiang Weimin's Life of Lying Down

Jiang Weimin participated in Shan Tianfang's storytelling recording for three consecutive days and felt that listening to storytelling and reading comic strips were two completely different experiences.

The story adapted by Shan Tianfang is more suspenseful, and the suspense at the end of each episode is also very strong.

Seeing that the recording work was on track, Jiang Weimin and Song Wenqing took a day off and went to visit their uncle Ouyang Yi.

"Wei Min is here, come in quickly, your uncle knew you were coming, so he took a day off to stay at home with you."

"Aunt, you are too polite. Actually, there is no need to be so formal. I have already said it on the phone before. This time I came here to pick up the things I brought for my cousin."

Just as they were chatting, Ouyang Yi came out of the kitchen.

"Wei Min, now you're here. After I finish cooking, we have to have a good chat. How about this, you don't have to go back today and just stay at our house."

Jiang Weimin hesitated for a moment, but soon agreed: "Okay, uncle, I'll call my uncle's workplace and tell him I won't be going home tonight."

"Okay, sit for a while, the food will be ready soon." Ouyang Yi said and turned back into the kitchen.

Jiang Weimin looked at his uncle's back and asked his aunt curiously, "Aunt, my uncle, a top student at Tsinghua University, can also cook?"

"He learned everything on the island by himself, but he's doing pretty well now. Knowing you're coming, he wanted to show you his skills."

"Then I'm in for a treat!"

Jiang Weimin understood that it was all caused by the times. Otherwise, a talented man from Tsinghua University, with a gentle and housekeeping wife, would never be able to cook in that era.

Hearing this, Ouyang Yi leaned out of the kitchen and said with a smile: "Wei Min, go back and tell your father to come to see me when he comes to Qingdao. I will cook for him myself and also invite him to taste authentic Western food!"

"Okay, uncle! If my dad knew you cooked for me, he would come over tomorrow."

"Haha, it's great that he's here! Our family hasn't been together for a long time, so this is a good opportunity to have a good chat."

Soon, Ouyang Yi brought the food to the table. Jiang Weimin couldn't wait to taste it, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised: "Uncle, your cooking skills are simply at the level of a chef! It tastes great!"

"No, no, just some ordinary home-cooked dishes." Ouyang Yi waved his hand modestly, but still showed a humble smile on his face.

"Wei Min, stop praising him. If you keep praising him, your uncle's reputation will be lifted up to the sky." An Xin joked.

“It’s really delicious. I must tell my dad about it when I get home.

But from what I know about my dad, he would definitely say

"This old Ou can cook? I don't believe it! I have to go and see how he cooks a table of dishes for me when I have time."

"Wei Min, no one knows a father better than his son! You are absolutely right, this is indeed something your father would say.

No, it seems I have to practice my cooking skills and try to convince him." Ouyang Yi said with a smile.

"Then my aunt can rest assured!"

"Wei Min, you are working now, do you want to drink some wine?"

"Old Ou, how old is Weimin and you let him drink! Neither of you is allowed to drink today."

"Forget it, uncle. I'm not yet an adult! And I'm not interested in alcohol."

"Wei Min, you are now drawing comic strips, working as an editor, and also going on business trips to Guangzhou. You are too busy!" An Xin said as she picked up some food for Jiang Wei Min.

Jiang Weimin smiled and replied, "Aunt, I actually like my current job. I can draw comic strips and have the opportunity to let foreigners see my comic strips. I think it's very interesting."

"Yes, what Wei Min is doing now is very meaningful. It can let foreigners understand our country through comic strips." Ouyang Yi said with appreciation.

"Uncle, your insights are profound! Great minds think alike."

"Haha, Weimin, when you meet foreigners in Guangzhou, don't be shy. Let them see the strong backbone of us Chinese people."

Jiang Weimin was a little excited by what Ouyang Yi said. He straightened up and said firmly: "Okay uncle, I will definitely show the best side of our Chinese nation."

"Seeing how excited you two are, stop talking and eat quickly." At this time, An Xin on the side couldn't help laughing and reminded them not to get too excited.

Jiang Weimin came to his senses, smiled awkwardly, and then began to concentrate on eating.

After dinner, Jiang Weimin and Ouyang Yi drank tea and chatted in the living room.

"Wei Min, I have read all your comic strips. Although your father's Anti-Japanese War drawings are also very good, I prefer the Police Dog Attack Series."

An Xin, who was cleaning up, heard Ouyang Yi's words and couldn't help but correct him, "It's called "My Father's War of Resistance". Old Ou, don't change the name for it."

"Yes, yes, it was a slip of the tongue." Ouyang Yi nodded quickly, then turned to look at Jiang Weimin and continued to ask: "Weimin, when will your next work be published?"

"Uncle, it will probably take another three or four months before it can be published."

"It's taking so long!" Ouyang Yi sighed in disappointment, "I can't wait any longer."

Jiang Weimin smiled and consoled him, "Don't worry, uncle. In a while, Police Dog Attack will be changed into a storytelling show and broadcast on the radio.

Don’t forget to listen when the time comes. Listening to storytelling and reading comic strips are two completely different experiences, and storytelling should talk about the latest case first.”

"The storytelling is about to start, and I can be the first to hear about the latest cases. I must listen carefully."

Ouyang Yi said excitedly. He had always liked the "Police Dog Attack Series" and now that he heard there was a storytelling series to listen to, he was naturally looking forward to it.

This was also what Jiang Weimin and Song Wenqing had agreed on. They would stop the storytelling halfway through and wait for the comic book "Police Dog Attack - The Invisible Man" to be published one month before broadcasting the next half.

Although this is somewhat unethical, it can greatly increase discussion and thus increase circulation.
