Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than two years have passed.

Qushui Town, Pingyang County.

It was the day of the market, the bustling crowd on the street, a girl in goose yellow clothes shuttled flexibly through the crowd, she carried a bamboo basket on her arm, avoided the flow of people, and entered a bookstore with a familiar car.

"Lucky girl is here?" The shopkeeper at the back of the account saw Xing Runan, squinted his eyes and smiled.

Xing Runan nodded with a smile, and raised the basket in his hand in a familiar manner: "This is the book that my brother has copied these days, Uncle Zhang, you order it." ”

"Good, good." The shopkeeper smiled and took out the paper manuscript in the bamboo basket, and after reading the whole article, the joy in his heart overflowed.

"My brother said that the next time I send it, it will be in a month." Lucky South Road.

Shopkeeper Zhang listened to her words and nodded: "Academics are important. With that, he beckoned to Xing Runan, "You come with me." ”

The two entered the inner room of the bookstore, and the shopkeeper Zhang took out three taels of silver from his arms and handed them to Xing Runan: "This is the pen fee for this time." ”

Xing Runan took the silver and carefully put it into his arms.

"Uncle Zhang, then I'll go back, it just so happens that my brother and they should also get out of school, so I'll pick him up and go back together." Xing Runan smiled sweetly.

Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly said, "Lucky girl, you wait." ”

"Uncle Zhang, is there anything else?"

"That's right." Shopkeeper Zhang said with a smile, "Nanfeng Bookstore wants me to ask if your brother wants to write a long story, if he can write a long story, your brother will make more money in the future than now." ”

"Long?"

"That's right, it's serial, you may not understand it, go back and tell your brother, he should be able to understand." Shopkeeper Zhang said with emotion, "I heard my son say that your brother and you send people under the fence, even the restraint for Mr. has to earn by himself, and he will end next year, and it is all a place to use money. ”

Xing Runan pursed his lips and asked, "Then if it's a serial, how to calculate the pen fee?" ”

"This, the first draft will be returned to three taels of silver, and if it sells well in the future, your brother and Nanfeng Bookstore will be divided into twenty-eighty."

After listening to the shopkeeper's words, Xing Runan smiled for a moment: "Okay, I'll go back and talk to my brother." ”

"Pay attention on the road, I've been shooting flowers in the past two days." Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly instructed.

"I know, thank you, Uncle Zhang."

Coming out of the bookstore, Xing Runan went to the calligraphy and painting shop to buy some paper and pencils, Song Yu's daily use, the one she used to write the book, and the one that Song Yu used to help her transcribe, the three prices are different, the most expensive paper, pen and ink, she is only willing to give Song Yu daily use, she writes books anyway, they are the first draft, just use the papyrus.

They arrived at Xu's house two years ago.

After about three months, the patriarch died of a stroke, and the current patriarch is not like the previous one, who accepted a little benefit from the Wang family, and turned a blind eye to the affairs of the Xu family.

Song Yu and Xing Runan's life in the Xu family was not easy.

Wang even told them directly that the family was tight, and he had to give Xu Taiming a wife, telling Song Yu not to go to the school anymore, and the family would no longer provide Song Yu with study, unless Song Yu could take out the cost of studying, Wang thought that by scaring Song Yu like this, he would be able to defraud him of the burden he brought out of the original escape.

Yes, when he escaped death, Song Yu also returned to the Xu family with a burden.

It's just that the burden is full of Xu Yunu's things before his death, and Song Yu didn't move anything.

Originally, fortunately, Runan still had the two fifty taels of silver tickets given by Mrs. Song at the beginning, but once she was sick and feverish, she couldn't find it anymore, and she knew that it must have been stolen by Wang.

There is no evidence, and I am afraid that the Wang family will beat me up, after all, the current patriarch has already received the benefits of the Wang family, and fortunately Runan does not dare to speak out, and if she goes to report to the official, the origin of this hundred taels will inevitably be investigated, and she does not dare to take risks, so she can only endure it.

It is impossible to keep Song Yu from studying.

Right now in the Xu family, Xu Zhenfa turned a blind eye to everything that happened, and the Wang family treated him badly and secretly, the two brothers seemed to be close to Song Yu, but in fact, they had already been brainwashed by the Wang family.

So, Song Yu found a bookstore to help people copy books to make money, and a copy of the "Three Character Classic" was copied to earn about one or two hundred texts.

She still remembers Song Yu's face at that time.

A burst of green, a burst of purple, probably a bad pork liver.

He held back for a long time before agreeing, fortunately Runan knew what he was thinking, the first gentleman in Jiacheng, who has always been used to being lavish, can eat more than a hundred taels in one meal with a classmate, and now he can only earn one or two hundred wen by copying a book, Xing Runan even thought, in Song Yu's world before, did he have a concept of the money unit of Wen?

Song Yu copied books every day, and his time and energy were divided, although he was extremely talented, he was still scolded by the gentleman in the school.

Fortunately, Runan saw it, so he took the initiative to help him copy the book.

But her calligraphy is not comparable to Song Yu at all, and Song Yu's words can only earn one or two hundred words, and her words are ......

Then one day, there was a book in the book copied by Song Yu, and the shopkeeper of the bookstore said that it was a book that was selling better now.

This intrigued her.

She's going to write too!

In the afternoon, Xing Runan pondered three short stories, and after Song Yu came back from school, he showed them to him, Song Yu didn't say anything, only said that he would take them to the bookstore to show the shopkeeper the next day.

Fortunately, Runan waited with confidence, who knew that the three articles were not completed.

Later, she studied the well-selling booklets, and found that her positioning was wrong, in a small place like this, most of the people who can read are men, and basically no women are literate, but the protagonist in her book is a woman.

In other words, she is in a men's market, selling a women's novel.

How could anyone be watching?

found the problem, Xing Runan wrote another article, this time, she grasped the needs of men, first, in a patriarchal society, the protagonist must be a man, and he has to bring the reader's cool point.

Why is the story of the elopement of the talented and beautiful woman, the poor boy and the rich lady so good?

Isn't it because the poor boy hooked up with the daughter of a rich family is equivalent to a counterattack?

When Xing Runan saw this clearly, things were much easier, and she wrote a story about her son-in-law's counterattack.

A poor boy, in order to treat the old lady, entered a large local family, the father-in-law has only one daughter, and the son-in-law is recruited to support the elderly, but the poor boy became a son-in-law, but no one in his wife's family looks down on him, the poor boy has suffered all the cold eyes and humiliation, he vows to take the test to gain fame and prove himself.
