Chapter Seventy-Three: Going to Zhou Kai's House (2)
Wu Neng couldn't talk at all, so he just wanted to wait for the news link to finish broadcasting. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Finally came to the last five minutes of foreign international events, Wu Neng also watched the news broadcast very seriously in the past 20 minutes, this feeling is very novel and fresh, the things put in it have disappeared in Wu Neng's memory for a long time, but when I saw the news once again said that a certain leader had recently visited something in a certain place, Wu Neng especially felt a sense of vicissitudes, things are not people, many of the big guys in it have passed away after 20 years, and some have withdrawn from the front line for various reasons, and the only one who can still have an impression is Jiang。 Host. Seats.
At this time, the picture flashed on the TV, and the host reported: "On November 3, the quadrennial US election was announced, and the Democratic candidate William Jefferson Clinton won by an overwhelming majority. In this way, he will enter the White House as the 42nd President of the United States. ”
Clinton became president, Wu Neng was immediately attracted by this news, Clinton, the president of the United States, Wu Neng was most impressed by nothing more than his lace news, the travelgate incident, the Whitewater case, Foster's suicide, and the Jennifer Flowers incident...... A series of lace news about keeping a mistress is overwhelming, and he also has a great wife, Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton ......!
Well, the past in my memory has not happened, or it has just happened, this is a very wonderful, very interesting experience, Wu Neng can only be a condiment in life, where should he think about what life, what ability should he do, he is still just a junior high school student, and the ability in front of him can only protect his family from worrying about life, and what he is doing at this moment is also within his own ability, changing the life of a young man.
Finally, the host said goodbye, and the familiar ending voice sounded, Wu Neng breathed a long sigh of relief, and was about to speak, when he saw Zhou Kai's mother coming over with the dishes, Wu Neng hurriedly got up to help pick it up, Zhou Aimin saw the guests going to pick up the dishes, and immediately scolded the three children sitting on the chair: "They are all lazy pigs, people are guests, and the three of you don't get up to set the table to eat!"
When the three brothers and sisters heard the reprimand, they stood up again and again to pick up Wu Neng's vegetable bowl, Wu Neng had no choice but to hand it over, and continued to be an idler, at this time to help, it was also a disservice, and he was not familiar with it, and Zhou Kai's father Zhou Aimin had a temper, it seemed that he was an absolute authority at home, the three children were silent, and they didn't dare to refute, and looking at Zhou Kai's brother Zhou Yuan's old and mature appearance, Wu Neng secretly guessed whether he was scolded like this all day long, scolding the old ......!
Anyway, the dinner table was finally served, and Wu Neng also sat next to Zhou Aimin under the enthusiastic arrangement of the other party, as long as the rural family did not come to important guests or festivals, it was a few home-cooked side dishes, and even the Chinese cabbage just now was fried, four dishes together.
There are no meat dishes, just a few small dishes grown at home, there is no preparation at home, sorry, Zhou Kai's mother apologized to Wu Neng with a smile, no matter what kind of dialogue is in that family, whether there are meat dishes or no meat dishes, the host will say this to the guests like this, Wu Neng smiled and didn't mind.
Don't talk about business when eating, this is a lot of rules, Wu Neng also finished eating three rice bowls quietly, and didn't pretend to be a guest who was afraid of ugliness and didn't dare to eat, until he was full, he said that he was full, sat at the table not far away and pretended to watch TV, until he watched Zhou Kai's father Zhou Aimin finish the last bite of food, then turned around and went to the chair to take his schoolbag.
"Uncle Zhou, Auntie, that's the case, Zhou Kai took twenty yuan for the manuscript last week, I heard that you didn't believe him and beat him, so I came today to make this matter clear. ”
Wu Neng didn't know what Zhou Kai's mother's surname was, so he had to call Auntie
Zhou Kai wrote a novel in his extracurricular time, I took a fancy to it, I thought it was very good, so I published his novel in the school magazine I did, the 20 yuan manuscript fee is the manuscript fee published in the school magazine, today I came to settle another manuscript fee with him, because I recently found a friend to publish Zhou Kai's novel, and I also settled the manuscript fee of his book according to the price mentioned by Zhou Kai earlier.
Zhou Kai's parents looked confused but listened carefully to what Wu Neng said, including Zhou Kai's brother and sister, who also sat on the side and listened to this topic that seemed to be far away from their lives.
Zhou Aimin was a little surprised, and a little skeptical, and was naturally surprised that his young son, who had no knowledge of learning and no skills, could still write novels?
As for the suspicion, it is natural to wonder if Wu Neng was invited by Zhou Kai to partner to deceive him, otherwise how could such a thing happen?
Although Wu Neng had seen Zhou Aimin's serious suspicion and distrust, Wu Neng finally took out the evidence, and the evidence was naturally banknotes!
When Wu Neng took out an envelope from his schoolbag like magic, Wu Neng deliberately prepared an envelope to make money, also to look formal, and the envelope was written with a capital number: "Zhou Kai's manuscript fee is two thousand yuan." ”
Wu Neng estimated that Zhou Aimin was illiterate, otherwise he took his envelope and glanced at the words on it without any reaction at all, sure enough, Zhou Aimin was illiterate, but of course after he opened the envelope, his eyes suddenly changed.
A kind of like seeing the incredible things in this world, seeing the twenty hundred-yuan bills in the envelope, his face suddenly turned from doubt to a hint of flushing, he wanted to say something, but he was so excited that he couldn't even speak, Zhou Kai's mother stepped forward and walked to her husband, bent down and took a look, her eyes suddenly enlarged, and she looked up at Wu Neng with an incredible look on her face, and then looked at Zhou Kai's classmate who was ready to accept praise with her head down......!
"Little... Xiao Wu, this... What's the matter with this money?" Zhou Kai's mother asked in a somewhat trembling voice.
In 92 years, 2000 yuan is not an astronomical amount, and it is basically about twice the annual income of a family in the countryside, that is to say, the annual income of two years, at this time lying quietly in this envelope, although the annual income can be about 1000 yuan, but every year it is also spent on a little earning, and it may not be possible to directly see ten 100 yuan bills, not to mention the impact of these 20 hundred yuan bills.
Wu Neng just wants this effect, so that this impact will wash away Zhou Kai's parents' impression of Zhou Kai's past, stimulate them to make it difficult for them to forget what happened today, and really change their attitude towards Zhou Kai.
Wu Neng pretended to be an understatement and replied with a smile: "Auntie, I said, this is the manuscript fee for the first novel with Zhou Kai, counting 200,000 words, I will give Zhou Kai ten yuan for every 1,000 words, and 200,000 words is 2,000 yuan." ”
Ten yuan for one thousand words, two thousand yuan for two hundred thousand words, this statement suddenly shocked Zhou Kai's family in the room, Zhou Kai himself seemed to have a feeling of really becoming the pillar of the family at this moment, he wanted to look up at the shocked and admiring eyes between his parents and brother and sister, but the shadow in his heart was always haunting him, so that he did not dare to raise his head.
