Li Aihua and Zhao Kang's wedding date is set for the sixth day of the first month. Now everyone's wedding date is set for the year before and after the year, Zhao Kang is eager to marry his daughter-in-law and chooses the nearest date.

On the ninth day of December, the two went to the provincial capital to buy things. Tian Shao didn't have any money in hand, so he asked Li Aihua to help him get the manuscript fee.

Li Aihua was a little surprised and asked, "Didn't you say that the manuscript fee for the next year has been donated, how can you still receive the manuscript fee?" ”

Tian Shao explained: "Recently, the books have been selling well, and the money has been divided, and the 1,000 yuan advance has been full. I now have more than 40 yuan left in hand, and I won't be able to spend this year without receiving the manuscript fee. ”

Because Tian Shao called Gu Hongxue, Li Aihua got the manuscript fee very smoothly. Because the manuscript fee was placed in an envelope, she didn't know how much when she took it, but it felt very thick.

Gu Hongxue took a slip and asked her to sign.

Li Aihua saw that the amount of manuscript fee on the table was 360 yuan, and Li Aihua said in surprise: "Editor-in-chief Gu, how much is Xiaoshao's monthly manuscript fee?" ”

She also thought that Tian Shao's monthly manuscript fee was really one hundred and eighty yuan, but now it seems that it will be two or three hundred.

Gu Hongxue said with a smile: "She gets royalties, and the more she sells, the more money she makes." Books are selling well these months, so I get a bit more money. However, since last month, sales have fallen a bit compared to the previous two months. ”

"Why?"

Why, there are already villain books similar to "Little Hero Ah Yong" on the natural market. Some of those books were also very well written, and they took away some of the readers. No matter what era it is, there is no shortage of people who follow the trend, as long as they make money, someone will write about it.

Li Aihua had some atmosphere: "How can these people be like this? ”

Gu Hongxue is doing this business, and thinks this is normal: "You go back and tell Xiao Tian to let her publish a new book quickly." In this way, it will be connected with the old books, and the new books will sell better when the time comes. ”

Li Aihua returned to Yongning County, and after handing over the money to Tian Shao, he relayed Gu Hongxue's words to her: "Xiao Shao, Editor-in-Chief Gu said that he hopes you will write different themes, so that those people will not be able to imitate them in a short time." ”

Tian Shao shook his head and said, "I'm too tired this year, and I won't write again until I graduate from high school next year." ”

Hearing this, Li Aihua was very supportive: "Then I won't write it." Making money is important, but so is the body. ”

Tian Shao hummed and asked, "What did you buy in the provincial capital this time, did you spend a lot of money?" ”

As soon as he mentioned this, Li Aihua's flesh ached: "I bought a red tweed coat, do you know how much it is?" One hundred and eighty yuan, which is equivalent to half a year's salary. I don't want it, Zhao Kang bought it secretly. ”

When she got the clothes, she was both happy and painful. At that time, I was thinking about retreating, but Zhao Kang said that he would get married once in his life, and hoped that she could dress beautifully. In the end, Li Aihua still stayed.

Tian Shao was worried when she heard this, if Li Aihua knew that the style of this dress was from her, would she settle accounts with herself. After all, if you buy materials and do them according to the style, it will only cost you a third of the money. From this point of view, this Zhuang Liangpeng is quite dark. Of course, he made money for the garment factory, and he could only get a small bonus.

Tian Shao said: "Sister Aihua, what will I give you when you get married?" ”

She really doesn't know what to send? In the past, girlfriends and roommates got married, and there were many choices for buying jewelry, bags or skin care products, but now they can't buy them even if they want to.

Li Aihua didn't say anything polite to her, and said with a smile: "Don't you know how to draw?" I always feel too monotonous in my new house, and you have time to help me draw a picture. ”

Tian Shao had an idea in his heart when he heard it, and responded with a smile.

On Sunday, Tian Shao went back to the countryside, had lunch and then turned back to the county seat. Before leaving, Tian Shao called Liuya into the house and handed her an envelope. In her puzzled eyes, Tian Shao said that he wanted to rebuild the elementary school classroom.

Liuya said: "Eldest sister, this is a lot of money!" ”

Tian Shao said with a smile: "The eldest sister has recently had more than 300 yuan a month for manuscripts, and she can build the classroom in three or four months." Sixth, the classroom can benefit many people. It's a hundred dollars, and you ask the principal to buy the wood first. ”

The brick house consumes the most bricks and wood. If you want to get bricks, you can get the goods directly from the brick factory, but the wood has to be prepared in advance. Like Uncle Li, he started preparing the year before last.

Liuya still didn't accept the money, and said, "Sister, our own house hasn't been built yet!" If you want to build a house for the primary school, your mother will definitely scold you, and the people in the village will know that they will be angry with you again. ”

Like the last donation to the disaster area and the donation of cotton shoes this time, it is obviously a good thing, but the people in the village have nothing good to say.

Tian Shao said: "Your school's house is too dilapidated, and it is still a trivial matter to be frozen, and the house may collapse in case of heavy rainfall." If the collapse happened to be in class, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”

Liuya herself is studying in school, and she knows what the situation is in that house. She was so thick that it was too cold in the classroom, let alone anyone else. But thinking of spending so much money and adding to Tian Shao's burden, she was reluctant.

"Eldest sister, I don't want you to work so hard."

Tian Shao touched her soft hair and said with a smile: "You think it's hard to write a book, but the eldest sister enjoys it." Big sister hopes that you can also do what you like in the future. As for donating money to build classrooms, the eldest sister now has this ability. If I don't have the ability, I won't be strong. ”

Liuya knew that she couldn't change Tian Shao's decision, so she finally took the money.

When she went to school on Monday, Liuya took advantage of the break to go to Principal Xin. Give him a hundred dollars.

Principal Xin's eyes turned red instantly. The school was so dilapidated that although it was renovated and reinforced every time, he still hung in on it. Well, now I have the money to build a new classroom.

Liuya said: "Principal, in fact, my sister has no money now, and she is going to use the manuscript fee for the next six months to build a house." If something happens, the house may not be built, so I hope you don't talk about it. ”

After a pause, she added, "If it spreads, many people will come to our house to borrow money." ”

After the news of her eldest sister's donation of money spread last time, many people went to the house to borrow money, and her mother scolded the eldest sister at home after she took those people away. She listened to it at the time, and she was very aggrieved for Tian Shao.

Principal Xin was moved and said, "Don't worry, I won't say a word about this." ”

Liuya said again: "Principal, my eldest sister also works hard to write books. On such a cold day, she was busy until eleven or twelve o'clock at night. Principal, I don't think all the money for this house can be paid by my eldest sister. There are so many students in our school, and they should also contribute. ”

The principal understood what she meant, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, when the time comes, I will mobilize everyone to contribute money and forcefully." ”

Tian Shao has a big head, and it is easy to raise a small head.
