The next day, it was Saturday, the time for the holiday, and in the afternoon of that day, most of the relatives of the Ye family were already present, because the news of Ye's father being dismissed and Ye Li being expelled from school came.

However, Ye Li's father was not there.

Relatives showed a caring side.

"Ye Li has always been very smart...... "The second uncle shook his head and said, "But his growth is the key, and he can't be left behind." In this way, I'll help you contact the teachers of the sixth high school and see if there is a way to arrange it for you. ”

"Hmm." Ye Li's mother nodded and glanced at him gratefully.

Grandpa Ye Li coughed and said coldly: "His father will only work hard to study theories, and you have been too concerned about work and yourself all these years." ”

Ye Li's grandfather was originally going to criticize Ye Li's father, but at this joint, Ye Li's father was deliberately absent, and his anger couldn't help but be sent to Ye Li and Ye Li's mother.

And now that Ye Li's father has left his job, Ye Li has been dropped out of school, and if this continues, the family will be in a mess, and he is really worried about Ye Li's future situation......

Hearing Ye Li's grandfather's reprimand, Ye Li's mother showed a look of shame and remorse.

And hearing these words from his relatives, although Ye Li knew that his relatives had good intentions, he still couldn't accept it.

Usually the parents do everything well, never let themselves meddle in the affairs of the family, they do not interfere in their own studies, and what they want to eat, they would rather go far away and they have to help them buy it back.

The happiest thing is to chat together after dinner, talk about politics, economy, national affairs, and literature, and that is the happiest time.

It's just that their love is only restrained, and his father's low but full affection last night has even been remembered in his mind for the rest of his life. How could they not love themselves?

Does love require a very harsh approach?

So he very disapproves of this reprimand, very much disapproves.

So he could only divert his attention by staring at the three wood carvings on the coffee table.

This is the three wood carvings he bought in the antique market this morning in order to observe the surrounding details, one is a solid wood carved tree root, one is the Xuanlong Town Tower to ward off evil spirits, and there is a Sheng Qian wood carving Guan Gong statue with a horizontal knife, which is not expensive, because there are some flaws in the carving on it, so the price is reduced.

But Ye Li felt that these were three statues with majestic power, which was a metaphor for his heart, so he bought them with the pocket money he usually saved.

And more importantly, he wants to sketch the details of this shijie in the novel, which can just start from this wood carving.

After all, he has not yet fully formed the knowledge structure of this shijie, and it is still difficult to control many details in real life.

Seeing that Ye Li was only paying attention to the wood carving, looking like a fugue, the other people's faces became even more worried, while Ye Li's grandfather stared sternly.

He said in a deep voice: "When did you have more of these wood carvings at home? ”

Ye Li's mother wanted to speak and stopped, but Ye Li said softly: "I went to the antique market in the morning to pick it up." ”

Unexpectedly, he dropped out of school, but Ye Li didn't care. Thinking of this, Grandpa Ye Li had a feeling of anger.

Just when Ye Li's grandfather was about to criticize Ye Li, the doorbell rang.

"Is Daddy back?" Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly went to open the door.

But when he opened the door, he froze.

What catches my eye is the color of a light cyan dress, luxurious and splendid, graceful and warm.

It was not his father in front of him, but Mo Bing, the editor-in-chief of Spring Publishing House, and her daughter Xue Ting.

"You are?" Ye Li's mother stood at the door, showing a surprised expression.

"You're Ye Li's mother, right? I am Mo Bing, the editor-in-chief of Spring Publishing House, and this is my daughter Xue Ting. Mo Bing explained.

Ye Li's mother was taken aback, she didn't expect that the woman with such a luxurious appearance in front of her turned out to be the editor-in-chief of the most famous publishing house in the capital, so she couldn't help but subconsciously straighten her waist and said softly: "Please come in, please come in." ”

And when Ye Li's relatives saw Mo Bing, they couldn't help but be surprised, no one expected that such a guest would come, with such a beautiful bearing.

"What is the editor-in-chief of the publishing house doing at home? Does it have anything to do with Ye Li's father? But how did she bring her daughter here? ”

"Or did you make a mistake? But they clearly said that they were looking for Ye Li's mother? Does it have anything to do with Ye Li? ”

For a moment, their eyes were full of doubts.

Mo Bing and Xue Ting were welcomed into the room and sat on the sofa, and while Ye Li's mother was making tea, Xue Ting also winked at Ye Li.

Ye Li's heart suddenly felt warm, they took the initiative to come over at this moment, did they want to help him share some of the pressure?

Mo Bing took the tea, took a sip after thanking him, and then said, "Mrs. Ye, I wonder if Ye Li said anything about the novel?" ”

His novels? Ye Li's mother was stunned, she remembered that she had read the novel written by Ye Li when Ye Li was asleep, especially remembering that the name of the article was "The Legend of Wukong"?

But she couldn't be sure, after all, this was the child's private matter, and then she shook her head: "No." ”

At this time, other relatives were also slightly surprised, the reason why this editor-in-chief of style and temperament came was not because of Ye Li's dropout?

Because of the novel she talked about, they thought of something at the same time, and their hearts moved: Could it be that Ye Li wrote a novel and submitted it?

I remembered my previous impression, although I didn't know how Ye Li's articles were written, but according to the way Ye Li was often criticized by Ye Li's father, I knew that Ye Li's writing was very poor.

Could it be that Ye Li secretly wrote novels when he was in class, wasting time, and now he has been rejected by the publishing house.

However, if I want to reject the manuscript, do I need to use the editor-in-chief to visit the manuscript in person? Still with a little girl?

At this time, a shocked thought flashed through their minds: "Is it so?" ”

They couldn't imagine it anymore: "No! Could it be that Ye Li's novel was published? How is that possible? He's only fourteen! ”

Their eyes were full of incredulity, and their minds were full of anticipation.

Hearing the news that even Ye Li's mother didn't know, Mo Bing glanced at Ye Li with concern, but at the same time, she followed his gaze and saw the three wood carvings on the coffee table, and suddenly her complexion changed slightly.

At this moment, the warm afternoon sun sprinkled into the living room and fell on the coffee table, bathing the three wood carvings in a kind of brilliance, and the firm movements of the three wood carvings seemed to have countless majestic voices stirring.

Mo Bing, who has always been steady, actually lost his mind.

Ye Li's mother couldn't help but explain: "This is an antique that Ye Li went to the antique market this morning to find, but there are many flaws......

Hearing this, Mo Bing showed an incredible expression, she could see things, although it was three flawed wood carvings, but at this moment, it seemed to be alive, as if it was filled with red mist. These three are spiritual antiques, in the eyes of people who don't know, they are not named, but in the eyes of people they know, they are worth a thousand gold.

And these turned out to be Ye Li just picked up from the antique market!

Thinking of this, she looked at Ye Li's gaze, and a feeling that she couldn't tell whether she was happy or surprised, spontaneously arose.

She couldn't help but say: "These three wood carvings are much higher than their surface value, Ye Li is really good-looking." ”

Hearing this, all the relatives looked at Grandpa Ye Li, but Grandpa Ye Li snorted, didn't speak, and looked noncommittal.

Then Mo Bing smiled slightly, this smile was even more elegant, and said: "The reason why we came to visit is because the novel "The Legend of Wukong" written by Ye Li is very well written, and it has passed the review of our publishing house and is included in the catalog to be published next month, and because he has not yet reached the age of 18, he needs to be signed by his guardian......"

Hearing these words, not only Ye Li's mother, but also those relatives were all stunned, and they became stunned one by one.

Originally, in their opinion, Ye Li, no matter how talented he was, was an outcast of a school, and Ye Li must have been the most difficult period in such a crisis.

But now they actually learned that Ye Li, at the age of fourteen, actually published a book.

What's more, it's Spring Press, which is the largest publishing house in the capital, and it is said that only some good writers can be signed!

It turns out that the delusion just now is true!

They couldn't accept it in their minds for a while, and they couldn't even speak.

Ye Li's mother paused and took the contract, and at the same time, her eyes just found that the first page said that the remuneration was 150 yuan per thousand words, and if it exceeded 100,000 sales, the royalty would be 15 percent, and it was only the simplified copyright of the contract.

From what she knew, she knew it was a first-class writer's contract.

She couldn't help but be stunned and looked at Mo Bing.

A soft smile appeared on Mo Bing's face: "Ye Li has a great talent for writing, if there is a new work in the near future, we will also sign a contract on the same terms." ”

At this time, Ye Li's other relatives were even more stunned, in this era when intellectual property rights are valued, the status of writers is unattainable, and Mo Bing's meaning is to make an appointment with Ye Li directly!

It seems that Ye Li's article not only can pass the review, but also seems to be very in line with the taste of this editor-in-chief?

For a while, the eyes they looked at Ye Li all changed.

And Mo Bing, who obviously felt this change, smiled slightly, stood up in the stunned eyes of others, and smiled slightly at Ye Li's mother: "The contract has been delivered, so don't bother anymore and leave." ”

"Xiexie Mo is the editor-in-chief." Ye Li's mother got up and sent Mo Bing to the door, and then gave Ye Li a look and said; "Ye leaves you to send them off."

"Hmm." Ye Li had already had this intention, so he followed Mo Bing and Xue Ting out of the room, and while waiting for the elevator, Ye Li said gratefully: "Xiexie Aunt Mo." ”

"Have you written any jihua lately?" Mo Bing smiled slightly and asked.

Ye Li hesitated for a moment, he didn't know when he would be able to break through when he encountered a bottleneck, but he still smiled like a sunny smile and said, "I'm working hard." ”

"Is there a school you'd like to go to? I think I can help. Mo Bing said.

A trace of warmth rose under Ye Xuan, but his face said stubbornly: "Thank you Aunt Mo, but I want to work hard myself." ”

Does a person go to other schools to convince those leaders? Mo Bing thought to himself, looking at Ye Li's firm expression, he finally nodded, and then slowly walked away with Xue Ting. Naturally, she would not have thought that Ye Li's second book at the moment had already reached a critical moment.

Ye Li, who had sent Mo Bing away, just entered the door, and found that the atmosphere in the room was completely different, replaced by the approving smiles of his relatives.

Ye also heard the second uncle say to his mother in a low voice: "Xiaoli is very talented. Your family is very talented, and that's why you're paving the way for him......"

The third aunt's eyes were also enthusiastic, and she said softly: "Ye Li has always been a prodigy when he was a child, I remember that time I only read Jiang Chengzi once, 'Ten years of life and death', he actually wrote it down word for word, and it was the first time I saw it." Now, his genius is becoming more and more apparent......"

And Grandpa Ye Li finally sighed, and then said: "Ye Li is a genius, he shouldn't be buried, you have to cultivate him well, but I can't give any opinion on his education, it seems that his father's teaching is still good......"

As soon as Ye Li's grandfather's words came out, Ye Li and Ye Li's mother couldn't help but glance at each other, and a smile flashed in their eyes.

And when he heard that his relatives had changed their opinions about him and his father, Ye Li's heart gradually became hot, and his gaze became more determined: "Mom and Dad, xiexie, you have always been silently supporting, I am your pride, and I have always been." I love you. So, I have to work harder! ”
