Chapter 24 actually opened a column
Xiao Fei himself also got a haircut by the way, and after a haircut, he looked in the mirror, and felt that his original simple face was a little handsome.
Xiao Yang also finished the haircut, and it was the same three-seven small part, all kinds of parted hair were very popular in this era, well, there was also half-length broken hair, long men's hair that could be tied up in braids.
This is a time when individuality begins to be displayed in various ways.
Xiao Yang looked at himself in the mirror, looked at it for a long time, and was fascinated.
It is estimated that he will soon not know the greatly changed self.
The two brothers were handsome and fragrant and came out of the barbershop, even though the sun outside was still hot, but their spirits were very high. Xiao Yang, who was originally walking on the street, looked dodgy and shrunk his head, his head was raised, looking left and right, and he was a lot more confident.
At this time, it was already past eleven o'clock in the morning.
I went out early in the morning, and I went on a long journey, and after shopping for so long a day, both of them were a little hungry.
Xiao Yang said: "Fly, go home?" ”
"What's the hurry, brother, you can go to another place with me." Xiao Fei wasn't going to go hungry and ride more than fifty miles home.
He thought, finally come to the county seat, or go to Wu Aizhen to have a look.
By the way, eat some at the restaurant in the county seat.
The manuscript to the Z City Evening News has been sent out for several days, and if it goes well, maybe the manuscript has already been sent.
Z City Evening News is a party newspaper and a metropolitan newspaper, which is very famous in H Province, and its circulation is also good, and there are retail outlets in Heyang County.
The newsstand where Wu Aizhen works is the retail outlet of the Z City Evening News in this county.
The two brothers rode to the county town cross street and found the newsstand.
Wu Aizhen was surprised and delighted when she saw Xiao Fei: "Ah! Xiao Fei, you're in the city, I'm looking for you in a hurry, if you don't come today, I'm going to go to your house tomorrow afternoon when I'm off work. ”
Xiao Yang stood next to Xiao Fei, squeezing his eyes at his younger brother, with a look of banter. He didn't expect that his brother seemed to be very familiar with this pretty girl.
There must be gossip in it!
Could it be that Xiao Fei talked about his girlfriend?
This is big news, and my parents will be very happy to find out, huh! It's best to show Wang Guizhi's cheap woman, my Xiao family's second child has found such a beautiful daughter-in-law, and she has the ability!
It's impossible for the brothers of the Xiao family to be singles.
Xiao Yang felt a burst of lightness in his heart.
Looking at his brother's demeanor, Xiao Fei knew that he had misunderstood.
It was a mistake to bring him here today.
Explain that to him later.
Hearing Wu Aizhen say this, Xiao Fei's heart also beat a few times violently, has the manuscript been published? She once said that if she saw her work published, she would leave a sample for herself or even send it home.
"What's the matter, Wu Aizhen, is there anything particularly urgent?" Xiao Fei asked with a smile.
Wu Aizhen bent down and took a newspaper from below and handed it to Xiao Fei: "There is a manuscript of you on the evening newspaper of Z City today, what is it called "Chicken Soup for the Soul or Spiritual Tablets", you see, there is a short paragraph of your profile at the bottom of the manuscript, it should not be someone else with the same name and surname, right?" ”
Xiao Fei took the newspaper.
At this time, the newspapers were not as thick as those of later generations, because there were not so many advertisements, and today's Z City Evening News only had 16 editions.
He skillfully flipped to the page of the Baihuatai supplement and took a closer look.
Sure enough, my manuscript was very eye-catching and posted in the headline position of this edition, and the title was bold and enlarged, which was particularly eye-catching. In addition, there are four words in the upper left corner of this manuscript, which makes Xiao Fei even more excited.
Those words are: Xiao Fei's column!
It's actually a column!
Liu Zelai was also a little too powerful, and he opened the column for himself quietly, and the draft was also sent quickly. According to Xiao Fei's estimate, it will take three days for his submission to be delivered to the Z City Evening News, and today is only six days.
In other words, after Liu Zelai received the submission, he immediately recommended his manuscript to the leader, and by the way, he applied for a column for himself, which was grandly launched the next day.
This made Xiao Fei very moved.
At the end of the 90s, it was still difficult to open a column in a newspaper supplement, and even famous people could not open it just by saying it.
Because the layout is limited after all, and there are too many newspapers for a supplement to its famous authors, the layout is very tight.
I'm just a 19-year-old boy, and it's the first time I've contributed to the Z City Evening News.
In his previous life, Liu Zelai had always taken good care of Xiao Fei.
Xiao Fei's first newspaper column was also opened by him.
Liu Zelai is really good.
This friendship has to be maintained.
In addition, Xiao Fei has other long-term grand plans, and Liu Zelai is a good partner to work with.
He thought that he would have to visit him in the provincial capital after a while.
The manuscript has been sent, but I don't know what kind of impact this series of ten manuscripts can set off in China, and will it not provoke any reaction at all?
After all, his anti-chicken soup argument was a bit too advanced.
Nowadays, people don't have that many negative opinions about chicken soup.
If the stagnant water is faint and there is no repercussion, Xiao Fei will be disappointed. Because, if there is no controversy, there will be no sensation, and if he is snubbed by public opinion, it also means that his goal of stirring up the wind and rain to gain fame and fortune will be frustrated.
"What's wrong? Fly, did your article get published? Xiao Yang stretched his neck from behind and leaned over to look at the newspaper in Xiao Fei's hand.
He saw that there was a manuscript in the newspaper with Xiao Fei's name written under the title.
Xiao Yang became happy: "Congratulations, fly!" I got the manuscript fee again, how much can I get for this article? ”
Xiao Fei rolled his eyes, he was moved, Xiao Yang launched such a cheesy question to himself, but he still replied: "It's not much money, it's estimated that it's only 50 yuan." ”
"Oh, it's only 50, so little?" After experiencing the baptism of selling turtles and getting a huge amount of more than 3,000 yuan in cash, my brother's vision was raised, and he looked down on the income of this small 50 yuan manuscript fee.
"This big brother, 50 yuan is a lot, and my monthly salary is only 300 yuan." Wu Aizhen pursed her lips and said with a smile.
Xiao Fei only reacted at this time, he didn't introduce his brother and Wu Aizhen.
"Brother, this is a friend of mine, named Wu Aizhen, Sister Aizhen has always taken good care of me."
"Wu Aizhen, this is my brother, my brother, called Xiao Yang."
He introduced them, and his heart suddenly moved, if he could match his brother and Wu Aizhen together, then he could also get rid of a piece of heart disease.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Xiao Fei invited Wu Aizhen to eat together, but Wu Aizhen wanted to see the stall, and he couldn't leave, so Xiao Fei bought some fruit snacks and the like nearby in order to express his gratitude, and asked his brother Xiao Yang to send it to Wu Aizhen, he meant to create a chance for them to get along.
Unfortunately, my brother quickly returned with his things dejected.
"People didn't want to take it, so they pushed it back very resolutely." Xiao Yang said.
"Oh?" Xiao Fei blinked, "What did you tell her?" ”
Xiao Yang touched his head: "I just said, this is a little bit of my heart, thank her for taking care of you or something, her face looks very bad." ”
Xiao Fei was very depressed, so he had to buy another popsicle by himself, and went to go again with the things he had just bought.
Wu Aizhen saw Xiao Fei and smiled narrowly: "I know what you mean, you want to sell your brother to me, right?" ”
Her words were too direct.
Xiao Fei didn't know how to answer, so he had to laugh wryly.
"My brother is pretty handsome."
"But I'm not interested in him, what should I do? You can't force me to like him just because he's your brother, can you? Wu Aizhen's talking eyes looked at Xiao Fei, as if she was smiling.
This, unexpectedly, was seen through the intention.
"Here, eat a popsicle." In order to relieve the embarrassment, Xiao Fei hurriedly handed the popsicle he had just bought to Wu Aizhen.
"Thank you." Wu Aizhen took it, peeled off the paper, and gently sucked it with her little pink tongue, making Xiao Fei sweat for a while.
This action is so much, it reminds Xiao Fei of the common scenes in those love action movies in later generations.
"Wu Aizhen, these things are bought for you, you won't not accept them, right? Actually, it doesn't mean anything else, just to express gratitude. Xiao Fei handed the fruit and snacks to Wu Aizhen.
This time, Wu Aizhen smiled lightly and took it: "Don't call me by my name in the future, okay?" It's too blunt, I'm two years older than you, you can call me 'Sister Aizhen', since my brother wants to honor my sister, then I will accept it politely. ”
This made Xiao Fei even more vigilant.
There must be no emotional entanglement with Wu Aizhen, she is a good girl, and he must not hurt her.
