Chapter 771 Charlotte's Net(1/2)

[Before breakfast, when they were packing the table and preparing for breakfast, Fen asked her mother, "Where did Dad go with his axe?"

"Go to the pigpen," replied Mrs. Arabel, "I gave birth to a few piglets last night."

"I don't understand why he needs an axe." Fen, who was only eight years old, continued.

"Oh," her mother replied, "One of them is a small man, it is small and weak, and has no value to stay. So your dad decided to destroy it."

Fin screamed, "God, destroy it? Are you saying to kill it? Just because he is smaller than others?"

Mrs. Arabel put a can of cheese on the table, "Don't yell, Fen!" she said, "Your dad is doing it right. The pig will die no matter what!"

Lin Han found that he had the talent for telling stories. He told the story vividly, telling Fen's conversation with her mother vividly.

The little loli next to her looked nervous. She unconsciously bit her finger and asked anxiously: "Has that little pig really been killed? It's so cruel. She is a bad mother and a bad father!"

"Don't worry, it's not started yet."

Lin Han unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle, took a sip of water and continued to speak. The little girl also listened attentively, not to mention how well-behaved he was.

["Dad, don't kill it!" Fen said as she cried, "This is not fair!"

Mr. Arabel stopped and said kindly: "Fen, you have to learn to control yourself."

"Control yourself?" Fen shouted, "This is a matter of life and death, but you actually say you control yourself?"

Tears flowed down her cheeks, and she grabbed the handle of the axe and planned to snatch the axe from her father's hand.

"Fen," said Mr. Arabel, "I know more about raising pigs than you. A small thin pig is in a very troublesome way. Now you go away!"

"But you are not fair!" Fen cried, "The pig was born small, not its poke, right? If I were born thinner, would you kill me?"

Mr. Arabel smiled, "Of course not," he looked down at her lovingly, "but the two cannot be compared. Little girls are one thing, little pig is another."]

"I know, this dad definitely didn't kill the pig!"

The little loli said with a confident look on her face, and she looked full of confidence.

Lin Han asked curiously: "How do you know?"

"Because I also pestered my father to do something similar, he wanted to send my lame dog away, but after I cried and begged him, he left the dog!"

This expression seemed to be waiting for praise, and Lin Han followed suit and said, "You are so awesome."

The story Lin Han is telling the little girl is called "Charlotte's Web". He is not sure whether this story exists in this world. After all, he has never had time to verify this children's book before.

Anyway, I'm telling it to others now, not publishing it.

In the following time, the story Lin Han told came to the real text, and the rescued pig was named Wilbur by Fen.

Finn loves Wilbur very much, she likes to caress it, feed it, and coax it to bed.

Wilbur the pig ate well and even took a stroller with Fen's doll for a ride. She was happy and looked very good!

But the good times didn't last long. Fen's father decided to sell Wilbur, and eventually asked Fen's uncle to buy the piglet. So Wilbur rented it into the pile of fertilizer under his uncle's barn.

Although they were well eaten and there were many animals in the barn, they were all busy with their own things, and no one was willing to play with Wilbur the pig, and Fen had to leave the school to see it.

Wilbur felt lonely, he needed friends and love.

On a dark night, just when Wilbur was very sad, a very fine and nice voice came from the darkness: "I can be your friend, I like you."

It was not until the next day that Wilbur saw his new friend, which turned out to be a spider named Charlotte!

This is finally the topic. The name of the fairy tale is "Charlotte's Web", and Charlotte finally appears.

Now, Wilbur has other friends who can talk to Charlotte, except Fen, who can eat well, so he raises fat and fat people.

Just as Wilbur was immersed in happiness, the oldest sheep in the barn told him that when it was Christmas, it would be killed for bacon ham.

The news was like a bolt from the blue, causing Wilbur to howl and cry, and toss it to the ground and scream. It didn't want to die. And Charlotte racked his brains for his friends and finally came up with a solution!

It is a spider, and uses its own spider silk to weave the three words "Ace Pig" on the web.

Charlotte's net is a miracle. It caused a sensation from all directions, and people around came to witness the appearance of the ace pig!

No one knows what's going on, but Wilbur is the ace pig.

Later, Charlotte woves words such as "Excellent" and "Glorious" on the spider web, so Wilbur becomes big news.

...

Lin Han said so much in one breath, and his throat was a little dry, but the little girl was still fascinated by it!

"What happened later? Did Wilbur survive healthily and happily?"

The little loli urged and said, she wanted to know what the ending was like.

However, at this time, the little loli's father was probably tired of watching the movie. He took off his headphones and stood up, looking at Lin Han very vigilantly, thinking that he was going to do something to his daughter!

"Carry, come to Daddy's side."

The blonde and blue-eyed middle-aged white man frowned, and he was very alert to strangers like Lin Han.

It was not until now that Lin Han knew the name of the little loli, but the father's actions made him a little disgusted and hurt. It was pitiful, he had no wrong ideas at all, he was just telling stories!

Carey pouted and bounced his legs hard, "No! I want to listen to the story. Uncle is telling me the story of Wilbur the Pig and Charlotte Spider."

"Hey. I know what you're thinking. Don't have any thoughts about my daughter, otherwise I'll kick you out of your ass!"

The father ignored his daughter's objection and carried her to his seat, while he stood in the aisle and looked down at Lin Han.

Lin Han was even more unfair than Dou E. He spread his hands and said helplessly: "Sir, don't think too much about this. She is a cute little girl, that's all."

"It's better!"

Carrey sat next to her mother, not forgetting the ending of the story at this time, and asked, "Is the final ending they both live a happy life?"

But Lin Han shook his head, "Charlotte died to save Wilbur, but before his death it successfully spawned its eggs and left behind its offspring."

"What kind of story is this? Why haven't I heard of it? Could it be that you made it up?" The father looked bad.

Lin Han frowned. This book "Charlotte's Net" was once the first of the ten greatest children's literature masterpieces in the United States. It is a household name in the United States. It is a work that can compete with "The Little Prince".

The original author e`b-White released his work in 1952. Since then, it has become popular all over the world as a fairy tale about friendship. Charlotte uses his life to save the lives of his friends. This fairy tale is not only animated, but also adapted into a movie!

But according to the father's approach, Lin Han felt that he had never heard of "Charlotte's Web". Maybe this novel was like the rest of the works that Lin Han brought, and had never appeared at all!

"Maybe not very famous yet, you will see it after a while."

Lin Han didn't say anything in detail, he was too lazy to argue with others!

Carrie's mother apologized in Chinese and said, "Sorry, Adam didn't do it on purpose. He was a little nervous recently. Thank you for telling Carrie this story."

"It's my honor, and I hope more children can hear this story."

"What's the name of this story? Maybe I can buy one for Carrey!"

Lin Han said, "I don't know if I can buy "Charlotte's Net."

He was actually not sure. What if Carey's father Adam really hadn't heard of this story? After all, "Charlotte's Net" is definitely not as popular as Snow White, Cinderella and the like in terms of popularity.

Her mother is very well-educated and she speaks Mandarin fluently. "I hope you have a happy journey. I'm very embarrassed about what happened just now. I'll let Adam calm down for a while!"

After receiving the gaze of his wife, Adam obediently sat down from the aisle, and at the same time, his body stiffened his hand to apologize.

"Sorry, I misunderstood you just now, but Carrey looks very happy, that must be a good story."

Lin Han nodded and accepted the apology. He didn't want to say anything to Adam anymore. He just silently put the blindfold on and fell asleep accidentally!

...

Lin Han woke up slowly when the airplane broadcast reminded passengers to fasten their seat belts.

At this time, they were already above Yanjing, and the planes were hovering and preparing to land.

The feeling of weightlessness gradually increased, and the plane shook slightly and gradually stopped on the runway. Although the air quality here was not particularly good, Lin Han missed it very much.

This is the reason why a golden nest is not as good as a dog nest!

Lin Han put on the baseball cap, dragged his suitcase and walked out of the VIP channel in a low profile.

At this time, assistant Yan Hong had been waiting aside for a long time. The two of them left without delaying anything, not giving the reporters any chance!

No one expected that Lin Han would come back by plane at this time.

"All everything in the company is OK?"

Although they have always been in contact with Lin Han through email, WeChat, etc., they were not on the scene after all.

Yan Hong said while driving: "No big thing happened. He just decided to cooperate with Zhongyuan Film and Television to develop the TV series "Lost". This plan has not been announced to the public yet."

Although Lin Han is the boss, Miao Hong is responsible for the specific affairs. Since Miao Hong thinks this project is feasible, Lin Han will naturally not object.

He asked, "How is the progress now?"

"Everyone is waiting for you to come back before confirming the director and then looking for a production team. We may not have the right to decide on the actors."

When shooting a movie, both the director and the starring actors are indispensable, so they are willing to give Lin Han a face and let him determine the director's candidate.

Lin Han waved his hand and said impatiently: "I will call Miao Hong later. "Lost" basically puts me the name of the producer. It's okay if I go to see it occasionally, but I can't hand over this project to me."

"The rest seems to be nothing. It seems that there is an essay contest to invite you to be a judge, but it doesn't seem very rigorous."

"Then just push it. I'm very busy now and I really can't separate myself. By the way, you can take me back to the villa and drive the car to the company when the time comes."
To be continued...
