Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 765 Xiao Shu'er said: The book writer is too poor

Liu Ya said that she was not thirsty, so she didn't need to find water.But Xiao Shu'er turned around and ran back again, and came back after a while holding a porcelain bowl filled with warm boiled water.

Xiao Shu'er held the bowl in both hands, and said with a smile: "Although it's summer, but I see that the eldest sister still drinks warm water every day, I think it's better for girls to drink warm water, so what I asked for the second sister is Warm water. You can eat, I will hold the bowl for you, and I will get it when you drink."

Liu Ya immediately felt a lump in her throat, and the feeling of being cared and loved by her younger brother was also so warm.From the moment she traveled through time, she knew that this younger brother cared for the silly girl in the family as if she loved her younger sister.Now he is "not stupid" anymore, but Xiao Shu'er is still so caring.

She couldn't bear to refuse, so she ate the hot pancakes and the sauced beef with peace of mind. She felt that her mouth was full of fragrance, and her heart was even sweeter.

After eating and drinking the bowl of warm water, Xiao Shu'er took the bowl and returned it to others, and the siblings started on their way again.Jiang Zitao just gave Liu Ya an address before, but the ancient house numbers are not so regular, and there is no number plate on the door of each house, so it took some effort to find it.

Jiang Zitao's house is located in a narrow street on the edge of the city, which is not a place where rich families would live.The specifications of the doors and windows are very small, which shows that the houses will not be very large.

Liu Ya made some inquiries and found Jiang Zitao's home.At the door, a young daughter-in-law was holding the little doll and basking in the sun. Liu Ya and Xiao Shuer walked over with a big black horse, and she even looked up.

Liu Ya asked, "Sister-in-law, is Jiang Zitao's home here?"

The little daughter-in-law nodded and said: "I belong to his family." After speaking, she called inside, and then said: "Girl, please sit in the room."

He said he would invite Liu Ya to sit in the room, but the little daughter-in-law didn't intend to stand up and give in. Liu Ya knew that she probably didn't want to go in by herself, and "please come in" was just a polite sentence.He said: "No, just wait outside, I will leave after saying a few words."

Just as he was talking, Jiang Zitao came out from the inside and first asked, "Yue'e, who's here?" Then he saw Liu Ya, and hurriedly called out, "Little Boss, you're here."

Hearing Jiang Zitao calling Xiaodong's house, the young daughter-in-law became nervous, and quickly got up and said: "So it's the boss, I didn't know it was you, I'm neglecting you. Come on, please."

Liu Ya shook her head and said with a smile: "It's okay, I just passed by and came to take a look. I didn't say hello in advance, or I was abrupt." Then she directly asked Jiang Zitao, "I just came to ask you, how much did you write?" gone?"

When Jiang Zitao heard Liu Ya's question about the book, he was very happy and said: "I was thinking about how to talk to Xiaodong's family. Recently, the writing has been very smooth, and the big and long stories are all done in one go. It just doesn't work. Knowing whether it feels right or not, I am worried that the writing is wrong, and I would like to ask my little boss to take a look."

After speaking, Jiang Zitao said "please wait a moment" and went into the room.When he came out again, he had already taken a thick stack of manuscripts, handed them to Liu Ya and said, "Little Boss, please take a look and give me some pointers."

Liu Ya didn't say anything like "I don't dare to be it", she turned the manuscript page by page and read it carefully.

Liu Ya's memory is very good, and her comprehension and comprehension skills are also super strong, so it is not an exaggeration to say "ten lines at a glance".The manuscript was about [-] to [-] words, and she finished it in a short time.Then he nodded and said: "Very good, the scene is progressing well, and the story is going in the right direction, so let's continue writing like this. These manuscripts are about [-] words long, so I'll take them away first. I'll settle the [-] yuan for you, The rest will be rounded up and settled for you next time, okay?"

Jiang Zitao immediately nodded and agreed: "Okay. The little boss can just take it away and print the book first, and we can settle the bill together next time, it doesn't matter."

Liu Ya didn't say anything else, she could still afford this little money.After paying the [-] characters, I handed the money to Jiang Zitao, and said, "I also want to ask you, is there any familiar classmate who is also good at writing, and can help me bring some essays like this?"

When Jiang Zitao heard this, he became a little nervous, and asked, "Does the young master think that my writing is slow?"

"No, I just have other stories to start writing. You can only write one book by yourself. When you finish this book, I have other stories for you. But I can't wait for you I won’t write another book for a month, right? So, if you have someone you can trust, you might as well introduce it to me, if the writing is good, the price is good, and I can give you some referral fees.”

Jiang Zitao heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.Since it's not about grabbing his job, there's nothing wrong with it.He said: "When I was studying, there were a few good classmates. At present, there is only one who is at home comfortably. His writing style is only higher than mine, and his mood is also high. It's just mediocrity, which has wasted a lot of time. I Go talk to him, if he is willing, bring him to meet the little boss."

Liu Ya nodded and said: "Then you should take the time to ask him. I will come back in three days, or about this time. If he wants to, he can wait for me here. If you need to know, you can explain it to him first. I won’t explain any more.”

Jiang Zitao agreed, and Liu Ya had nothing else to think about.He took the little tree and left.

After leaving Jiang Zitao's house, Xiao Shuer breathed a sigh of relief.Said to Liu Ya: "Second Sister, only [-] characters earn such a little money, it's not as good as the income of our small water shop for two days. It seems that writing a book is really hard and not profitable. I still Quit it."

Liu Ya smiled, and said: "Yes, the life of a scholar is always sad. Those who study hard, if they get the fame, are fine, but if they only rely on studying for a lifetime, they may starve. It is said that the book itself There is a house of gold, but in fact the house of gold is in the individual’s brain. As long as you use your brain, you will have silver and gold. Reading is just a boost.”

Xiao Shu'er nodded and said, "From this point of view, I should really learn from that old gentleman in Feihongfang. It seems better to be his school boy than to study hard."

Liu Ya actually thought so too.But this is also a risky move. No one knows what the result will be after giving up the right path of studying and taking another shortcut.

In the end, there was only one thing left to go to Xiankeju to check out.Originally, I had to be the first to do it in a hurry, but with the 50 taels of silver from Tongli Yinzhuang, the second car of firewood here was 20 taels of silver, but I was not so anxious to take it.

When Liu Ya took two ten taels of silver bills from Qi Shiming and told Xiao Shu'er that they were money for selling fruit trees and firewood, Xiao Shu'er's eyes were as big as copper bells.
