Momo no rain

Chapter 163 I’m going to publish a book

Momo was startled when she heard that the other party said she was from the publishing house.Suddenly remembering something, she was surprised, confused, and a little nervous. She hesitated and said softly: "Hello, teacher! Did you call me for something?"

"I have been following your official account for a long time. Your inspirational articles and book reviews are very good. You look at problems from your own unique perspective, your views are sharp and clear, and your writing style is also very mature. To be honest, I admire your talent. I have an idea to collect your 10+ high-quality articles and publish them in a book. I wonder if you have this intention?" The sincere and steady baritone came through the electromagnetic wave again.

"Thank you in advance for your kindness, teacher, for taking a fancy to my essay." After hearing the explanation from the teacher opposite, Momo finally relaxed her slightly nervous mood and felt a little excited. She immediately asked, "Of course it's a good thing to publish a book. I don’t know what you think about the remuneration and copyright royalties?”

"Don't worry about this. We are a well-known publishing house in the country and will not treat you badly. I will send the signing contracts between us and all the authors to your email soon. You can take a look at it first. If you have any questions or dissatisfaction, we will discuss it again. Discuss, what do you think?" The other party's attitude was kind.

"Okay. I will send you my email address later. Teacher, please send me your WeChat ID and I will add you as a friend." Momo said happily.

After hanging up the other party's call, Momo was almost ecstatic. More than three years of non-stop writing work finally paid off. She is going to publish a book!She suddenly remembered a lyric and hummed in a low voice, "I'm so happy today, so happy..."

"Mo Xiaomo! Did you win the prize?" Ma Jiali, the classmate at the next table, suddenly turned to look at her curiously with big eyes.

"Well, it's almost like winning a lottery!" Momo was in a rare mood and answered Ma Jiali cheerfully.

"What a good thing makes you so proud? Tell me, share it, and let me share your joy!" Ma Jiali twinkled her starry eyes cutely.

"I'm going to publish a book, blah blah blah~" Momo said with a smile, making the ending sound long, soft and waxy.

"Ah! A book is published!" Ma Jiali's starry eyes immediately changed to diamond eyes, staring at Momo with big and bright eyes, deliberately acting weak, and asked unwillingly, "Are you going to be a writer?"

"It's possible!" Momo's mood was high.

"Are you going to cover all the late night snacks in our dormitory from now on?" Ma Jiali stared at Momo and asked seriously.

Momo suddenly felt like she had been deceived. She stopped smiling and asked knowingly, "Why?"

"Because, because you are going to be a family, because you are going to be rich, because you are going to become a rich man, because..." Ma Jiali was still thinking about it, and Momo smiled and pushed her gently. "Don't be so shameless, okay?! You want to plunder people's wealth before I even make any money! You, you are so unreasonable."

"Hmph! Return to me, girl, you should say lady. You are already married and you still call yourself girl. You are using the wrong words, is that right?" Ma Jiali wrinkled her nose and squinted her eyes to tease Momo.

"Okay, okay, okay! If I use the wrong word, I'll call myself Ms. from now on, okay? Lovely Apple Bloom." Ma Jiali has a lively personality and a round face, like a big apple.Therefore, her classmates in the dormitory often teased her and called her "Apple Li".

"Well, that's pretty much it." Ma Jiali stopped teasing Momo, but said seriously: "Mo Xiaomo, I see you writing and drawing every day. I thought you just wrote casually, but I didn't expect you actually wrote something. I’m so famous. I’m so envious, and a little bit jealous~”

"You don't have to be envious or jealous. As long as you want to write, you can publish a book." While talking to Ma Jiali, Momo sent her email address to Teacher Zhang Jun from the publishing house.After a while, there was a notification of new emails in her QQ mailbox, and she hurriedly opened her inbox.

"Mo Xiaomo, seeing your results, to be honest, I'm really envious! But in addition to studying our professional courses, I have some perseverance. I also have to learn. When doing other things, I always have a 3-minute fever and can't persist. Come down. I really need to learn this from you." Ma Jiali said seriously.

"It's good to learn from me. It's better to act than to think! Then take action!" Momo said to Ma Jiali with a smile.

"Okay! When I'm full, move, move, move!" Ma Jiali said as she took out a plum candy from under a book and stuffed it into her mouth.

Momo turned to look at her, smiled bitterly and shook her head.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. After thinking about it, Momo also consulted several literary friends who had published books to learn about some details and precautions for publishing books.

On the third day, Momo replied to Mr. Zhang Jun from the publishing house, and the matter of publishing the book was finally settled.The publisher will pay Momo an initial payment of 10 yuan, and then give Momo a share based on the sales volume of the book and according to the terms of the contract.

Momo told Zimo about the good news, and Zimo was of course very happy to hear that.WeChat: "Unexpectedly, I accidentally married a talented woman who is also a writer. Apart from admiration for my husband, I still admire, I still admire!"

In the days that followed, in addition to studying her professional courses, Momo began to organize articles needed by the publishing house in her spare time.Three weeks later, Momo revised and corrected all the articles three times before sending them to meet the requirements of the publishing house teacher.

By the time Momo finishes publishing the book, New Year's Day will be here and the college will have a three-day holiday.Zimo didn't let Momo go back, but he went to Jiangcheng.The reason why he didn't let Momo go back was mainly because he was worried that his mother would mention the child again when she saw Momo.

According to the plan, the next morning after Zimo arrived in Jiangcheng, he and Momo got on the train to Wenzhou, Zhejiang. They were going to Momo's biological mother's house.

Zimo and Momo arrived at Wenzhou Railway Station at six o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, Li Fangjie's family of four was already waiting at the exit of the train station.

In fact, they had met before, but they didn't know there was such a relationship at the time.Now that everyone knows that they are a family, Momo and Duan Zimo did not act too harsh when they saw Li Fangjie's family, but quickly integrated into their family.

Momo and Duan Zimo stayed in Wenzhou for two days. Li Fangjie's husband took them and their family to visit several famous scenic spots in Wenzhou. Momo happily took a lot of photos with her mobile phone, including pictures of her mother. .

On the morning of the third day, Momo and Zimo were going back to Jiangcheng, and Li Fangjie's family of four enthusiastically took them to the train station.

Just when Momo and Zimo walked into the waiting hall, Zimo's cell phone suddenly rang.He hurriedly took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and the word "Mom" kept flashing on the screen.He hurriedly pressed the answer button, opened his thin lips and said, "Mom."

"Zimo, where are you and Momo now? Your Aunt Sun and I have arrived in Jiangcheng. We are now at the gate of Momo's school." Luo Yuanyuan's urgent voice came from the mobile phone.

"Mom! You've arrived in Jiangcheng! Why didn't you tell me in advance when you were coming?!" Duan Zimo scolded his mother with a frown.
