Reborn 1960之巧女当家

Chapter 111 Author Fee Reward
Anyone would be happy to see the article he wrote appearing in the newspaper, and Xia Nuan found 570 five yuan in the envelope. It would take several years for ordinary people to save so much money.

Xia Nuan took out all the other things in the envelope, and said in the letter that the 570 yuan was the manuscript fee and the No.1 reward, and that they charged [-] yuan for [-] words for Xia Nuan's article.

At the beginning, Xia Nuan sent 75 words, which was a manuscript fee of 70 yuan. You must know that at this time, the regular workers in the factory only had a salary of [-] yuan a month, so the manuscript fee paid by the newspaper was really low. low.

After reading the letter written to her by the newspaper, Xia Nuan took out the contract inside the envelope, Xia Nuan read the contract carefully, and only signed her name after confirming that there was no problem with the contract.

There are two contracts in the envelope. Of course, the content of the two contracts is the same. It is said that the contract is actually an agreement, and it only mentions the issue of remuneration.

And the column of the newspaper has already been stamped. After Xia Nuan signed it, she was going to send out the rest of the manuscript and the contract when she returned home the day after tomorrow.

The remuneration for writing this story plus the family Xia Nuan can get a total of 1000 yuan, which is more than all the savings of the family.

Of course, Qiu Xianghong and Wenhua were not hidden from Qiu Xianghong and Wenhua about the remuneration. Xia Nuan didn't want to hide the money from her family and friends. Besides, writing articles to make money was because Xia Nuan wanted to earn gold coins. It was also because Xia Nuan wanted to raise some income for the family openly.

In fact, these days, they have already seen that something is wrong with Xia Nuan. No matter what she does, Xia Nuan doesn't seem to be very motivated. They thought it was because of the submission of the manuscript that Xia Nuan was in a bad mood and dared not ask her.

"Second brother, my article has been published by the newspaper, and I have already received the payment for the manuscript." Xia Nuan was bouncing up and down while holding Wen Hua, looking very energetic.

Before there were other people in the dormitory, Xia Nuan couldn't act too much, but now it's hard for her to be left alone. Of course, Xia Nuan wants to be happy and unrestrained.

"Really, that's really great, Nuan Nuan, you don't even know how much we worry about you, no matter what you do these days, you look like you can't lift your spirits, I thought something went wrong with the submission. !"

Seeing Xia Nuan's happy look, Qiu Xianghong was of course very happy for her. As for Wen Zhi, after hearing Xia Nuan's successful submission of the manuscript, he let go of what he had been worrying about these days, and then immediately thought that Xia Nuan got the manuscript fee. It doesn't mean he can satisfy his hunger.

There is nothing delicious in the school. Xia Nuan knows that although the state-run restaurant needs a ticket for meals, sometimes it will sell some food that does not need a ticket, so she said to take them to have a good meal when I go home the day after tomorrow.

Wenhua doesn't care about whether he eats or not, but he feels that Xia Nuan is happy now and he feels relieved. Now that the big brother Wen Hao is not there, he, the older brother, has to take good care of his younger siblings.

Xia Nuan specifically told Wenhua and the others not to mention her contribution to the newspaper. Originally, she was already very high-profile when she took the first place in every exam. In addition to the matter of submission, Xia Nuan was worried that someone would make a special trip to the newspaper like before. They came to see her in the classroom.

To be honest, the feeling was really bad, making Xia Nuan feel like a monkey being stared at with novel eyes.

Wen Hua and Qiu Xianghong immediately agreed not to talk nonsense outside, but Wen Zhi was a little unhappy. Xia Nuan's contribution was accepted by the newspaper. Wen Zhi was very happy, and wished to let everyone know that he had a very powerful sister Now that Xia Nuan doesn't let him speak out, it is equivalent to letting Wen Zhi eat half of his meal and let him put down his job.

However, after Xia Nuan explained the reason to him, although Wen Zhi was still a little unhappy, he promised not to tell the outside world. In fact, there was a certificate of award in the envelope, but she felt it was inconvenient to take it out.

Xia Nuan put the money, the contract, the newspaper and so on back into the envelope. Of course, Xia Nuan put all these things into the storage ring, so it is definitely not safe to put a large amount of money in the dormitory.

Wenhua and the others accompanied Xia Nuan to the post office after they had packed up their things on Friday, and of course Wen Hao, who came to pick them up, went with them.

On the way to the post office, Xia Nuan told Wen Hao about her success in submitting a manuscript, and Wen Hao, who knew about it, was also very happy to say that he would go home and cook a few more dishes to celebrate Xia Nuan's success.

At the post office, Xia Nuan sent out the remaining 9-word manuscript and the signed contract. Of course, the address was still written in the school.

There is no way that the newspaper's manuscript fees are sent in envelopes. Dafeng Village is very remote and letters may not be delivered on time. The postman usually only goes there every three or four days.

Now that Xia Nuan is still in school, it is most convenient for the letter to be sent to school.

This time, Xia Nuan and the others were lucky enough to catch up with the state-run restaurant to make beef, and the beef didn't cost money, which was a rare good thing, and they couldn't get it at all.

This stewed beef is very expensive for a piece of sixty-one catty, and this pork is only five or sixty cents a catty. This is one of the reasons why there is no need for a ticket, but Xia Nuan is currently short of tickets if he is not short of money.

She bought ten catties of stewed beef in one go, and also bought more than a dozen sesame seed cakes filled with meat. If it wasn't because it was not easy for Xia Nuan to finish buying, maybe Xia Nuan would really buy all these beef home , and it is not very convenient for them to walk home and hold them in their hands.

Ten catties of beef cost 16 yuan in total. Wen Hao was a little distressed when he saw Xia Nuan spending the money without blinking an eye. If he bought pork for the 16 yuan, he could buy more than [-] catties.

But in the end, the money in Xia Nuan's hands was earned by Xia Nuan herself, Wen Hao didn't say much even if he felt distressed, and she didn't spend the money indiscriminately, but spent it where it should be used.

After they got home, Xia Nuan found Xia Zhongguo and the others who were watering the vegetable field in the backyard.

"Father, come here and I have something good to show you."

Seeing Xia Nuanxi's expression on his face, Xia Zhongguo knew that something good must have happened, so he and Wang Ximei hurried back to the house after washing their hands.

"Sometimes the good things are worth your haste to show us?" Wang Ximei couldn't think of any good things that happened at home recently.

Xia Nuan took out the No. 1 award certificate of the essay competition and the money sent by the newspaper from the envelope, "Mother, look at these..."

Seeing the stack of great solidarity and awards on the table, Wang Ximei and Xia Zhongguo were both stunned, "Is this... Are these all? This... You can't make me and your father happy, right?"

"Mother, even if I can lie to you, the money is still fake. You see, these are all real money. When the next time the newspaper sends a letter, there will be more than 400 yuan!" Xia Nuan dared not Xuanyang thinks it's too high-profile, but when his family members talk about it, it makes people feel really funny to look proud.

"This...you can earn so much money by writing articles. It seems that you should read more books. Nuan Nuan has earned more in the past half a month than other people's savings over the years." Wang Ximei felt a little surprised It's like I'm dreaming.

"My Xia Zhongguo's daughter is better than others. Whoever's daughter is as capable as my daughter is not as smart as Nuan Nuan."

Xia Zhongguo loved Xia Nuan, his only daughter, now that Xia Nuan gave him such a face, he was in a great mood.

"Mother, you should keep the money well. When the big brother gets married, he will manage in a decent manner, and it will save some people from always gossiping about our family." Thinking of the way the old house looked down on them, Xia Nuan felt in her heart It's very uncomfortable.

Although the family is indeed short of money, Wang Ximei and the others will not use Xia Nuan's money to hold a wedding for her elder brother.

"This amount of money is really not small. Put it on my side first, but you don't have to worry about your brother's marriage. Your father and I have a plan to use you, a little girl, to worry about your brother's marriage."

"That's right, what is this face? How can I ask for your money when my eldest brother gets married? If I really take it, then I am nothing." Wen Hao also agreed with Xia Zhongguo and Wang Ximei's words, and he was unwilling to take the money his sister earned. To save face.
