Fang Zheng said: "Uh...... It's not that miserable. ”

Yu Nian shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's only worse than you think, you know? ”

Fang Zheng nodded, indicating understanding.

Yu Nian said: "But you must not know how many blind dates I have had before I got to this point." ”

Fang Zheng said: "How many times?"

Yu Nian said: "I started a blind date three years ago, five times a month, sixty times a year, and one hundred and eighty times in three years! Most of the time, the woman asked me what I did, and I said that I was an online writer, and basically the matter was over. ”

Fang Zheng said: "So miserable?"

Yu Nian said: "Almost, in the eyes of most girls, online writers are a group of poor scumbag otaku." Because they don't know you, they can only ask their friends. Most of the online writers I know from my friends are one of five or six million people, or the kind that barely survives. So the feedback you get is...... I can't live this day. ”

Fang Zheng said: "Then do you hate them?"

Yu Nian shook his head and said: "If you don't hate, why do you hate others? Everyone has the right to choose their own happiness, and I can't ask others to compromise me because of my misfortune. ”

Hearing this, Fang Zheng smiled: "It's good that you can think so." You said before, you were still 1,002 last year, so how much is this year?"

Yu Nian said: "I'm a stupid bird, I have practiced my literary skills for ten years, and finally broke out in the second half of last year." I can now have more than 20,000 or 30,000 yuan a month. Coupled with the channel fee and the cost of physical publishing, I got more than 100,000 yuan a month at most. ”

Speaking of this, Yu Nian was quite proud, and then did not forget to add: "Moreover, my copyright is also being discussed, if it succeeds, I should be able to get about one million." ”

Fang Zheng gave a thumbs up and said, "Awesome, in this way, your conditions should be very good." At least, better than most of us in Songwu County?"

Yu Nian said: "I think so too, but when it comes to getting married, I don't think it's useful." The woman has to think so too......"

Fang Zheng said: "By the way, are you getting married today, right? Why did you come to the poor monk?"

Speaking of this, Yu Nian's eyes, which were originally energetic, instantly dimmed, and said bitterly: "Master, I actually want to ask you if I want to continue writing online articles." ”

Fang Zhengdao: "Why do you want to ask the poor monk?"

Yu Nian subconsciously took out a box of cigarettes and wanted to smoke them, but when he took them out, he remembered that this was a temple and he couldn't smoke.

Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Let's go out for a walk, you can smoke outside." ”

Yu Nian nodded gratefully and followed Fang Zheng out.

Although the snow on the mountain is thick, it has not snowed for many days, and the mountain wind is strong enough to blow out a layer of snow shell like a stone slab, and if you step on it, you will not sink down, as if you are walking on the concrete floor.

The only difference is that it's a bit slippery......

In addition, there are many tourists, and people who come every day can tread a path in many places on the mountain with their feet alone.

Therefore, it is not difficult for two people to walk.

Yu Nian lit a cigarette and took a hard breath, then said, "I'm confused, I don't know if it's time for me to continue." ”

Fang Zheng didn't speak, and waited quietly.

Yu Nian continued: "I love writing, I have loved it since I was a child, but there has never been a channel for me to live on something. You know, traditional publications themselves don't sell well, and the remuneration they give is pitiful. The most important thing is that it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, it's hard to get selected. So, even if it's just those few dollars, it's not so easy to earn. ”

Fang Zheng nodded with deep feelings, because there used to be an old gentleman in the village, who used to teach private school, and he was full of words, and every sentence was entwined. At that time, Fang Zheng felt that the other party was sour, but when Fang Zheng grew up, he realized that the old gentleman was exporting chapters, quoting scriptures, and saying very exciting.

Fang Zheng still remembers that the old gentleman once became angry, stood on the street and scolded for more than an hour, and finally directly recited an article.

Later, when I went to school and learned this article, I realized that it was a poem used by Mr. Wen Yiduo to scold people back then-stagnant water!

At that time, the old gentleman submitted a manuscript to the county publication, but it was rejected.

It's nothing to dismiss, the old gentleman told others at the beginning that there are too many excellent literati in the world, and the thing he wrote still can't work......

But when that issue came out, the old gentleman saw that the poems that took his place were actually ......

"Ah, the sky, you're blue.

You're so blue......

I want to fly up in my dreams,

It's a pity that there was no chance. ”

That's right, it's such a poem, which replaces the poem that the old gentleman has been thinking about for a month.

So the old gentleman became angry, ran to the county town overnight, blocked the door of the publication and scolded the people inside, and later learned that the person who wrote the poem was a retired cadre, who was idle, but he also wanted to be a literati and cultivate his sentiments.

That poem not only replaced the old gentleman's poem, but also won the grand prize in the city that year, the cadre was stunned at the time, and when he went to receive the award, he threw the certificate directly and threw down a sentence: "What is it...... Can I still win an award for that thing? Do you tease me, or do you scold me?"

Then the old cadres brushed their sleeves away......

That became a joke at the time.

The old gentleman didn't know what happened later, anyway, after that incident, he came back and started scolding, and it was also on that day that he recited the stagnant water.

Fang Zheng couldn't remember all the contents of the backwater, but the last two sentences, he had always felt very happy, so he was extremely impressed, and he can still recite it now: It's better to let the ugliness reclaim it and see what kind of world it creates.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng also said casually.

When Yu Nian heard this, he said with emotion: "Hey, although not all of them are like that, as long as you are unlucky and meet one, I guess I won't be in the mood to write." ”

Fang Zheng nodded slightly, the old gentleman back then, since that incident, has left Yizhi Village, and then there has been no news.

I guess I'm desperate for something......

Yu Nian said: "Fortunately, later the online article appeared, and I saw the opportunity again." When I earned my first remuneration from online articles, two hundred yuan for full attendance, I decided that this path was my hobby, and it was possible to support myself if I worked hard, and that was enough. Ten years have passed, and suddenly I was asked to give up, I was really hard to ......"
