After returning home, my mother was watching a TV series with my sister in the living room, and Zhong Nuanyang said hello and entered the house.

Zhong Nuanyang walked to his desk, took out the key in his schoolbag and opened the yellowed lock, this is the only private place he doesn't want to give up, even his mother doesn't know what's inside.

Zhong Nuanyang rummaged through it and took out a passbook, she carefully opened it and looked at the numbers inside, which was still a long way from her goal. She bit her fingers and thought for a moment, then pulled out the card that was sandwiched in it and relocked the drawer.

The money in the passbook was accumulated by herself little by little, including the New Year's money given by her grandmother before, and some of the money she earned from odd jobs, most of which mainly came from her own contribution fee to the magazine, and she wrote some stories and essays in her spare time, but she didn't expect them to be published.

I still remember the first time I saw my article published in the newspaper, Zhong Nuanyang was very excited. That day, when she got up early in the morning, she flipped out her article and quietly put it next to the stove where her mother was cooking, and while washing up in the bathroom, she pricked up her ears to listen to her mother's movements outside.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no response, and when she entered the house to change clothes, she glanced at her mother, who was busy in the kitchen, and found that the newspaper by the stove was gone. I don't know if my mother has seen it, thinking so, Zhong Nuanyang excitedly went into the bedroom, and was so frightened that his sister who came out rolled her eyes.

When Zhong Nuanyang came out after changing his clothes, everyone was already sitting at the dining table and ready to eat.

"Why is this again?" Zhong Nuanyang couldn't help frowning when he saw the yogurt cereal and bacon on the table.

"Doesn't Yang Yang like this?" Zhou Gang reacted and turned his head to look at Zhang Xue: "Is there anything else, if she doesn't like to eat, she will eat something else." ”

Seeing that his mother was a little embarrassed, Zhong Nuanyang sighed in his heart, squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay, that's it." ”

Zhou Yun raised his eyes to look at the three people who were slightly embarrassed, pouted and took a big bite of the homemade burger that Zhang Xue specially made for her.

"Mom, did you see a newspaper?" Zhong Nuanyang didn't see the carrier of his article everywhere, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Newspapers? Oh, see, do you want to use it? I wrapped up food for Yun'er......" Zhang Xue poured a glass of milk and handed it to Zhong Nuanyang, pointing to the dining cabinet casually.

Zhong Nuanyang immediately turned around, and sure enough, he saw something wrapped in newspaper in a transparent plastic bag on it.

"Why don't you ask me?" Zhong Nuanyang stood up a little excitedly, walked to the dining cabinet and wanted to open the plastic bag to take a look.

"I don't know if it's what you want to use, I just don't have anything to wrap up, so I'll take it and use it, there are so many newspapers at home, no, I'll buy you a ...... when I go out" Zhang Xue didn't understand the reason for her daughter's sudden gaffe, and looked at Zhou Gang with some astonishment.

Zhou Gang hurriedly stood up and helped Zhong Nuanyang unwrap the tightly wrapped plastic bag, I don't know what was wrapped inside, I wrapped it in several layers of newspaper, and I could see oozing oil stains.

"Today, Yun'er and they want to have a picnic, so they bought her a fried chicken that she can eat with her friends, and I also kept one and came back from school today to eat together......"

Zhong Nuanyang looked at the chapter with his name printed on it that was crumpled with oil stains, and a sense of grievance rushed into his nose, almost shedding a few tears.

"Oops, it's dirty, it's okay, I'll buy you another one when I go out later, I'll see what kind of newspaper this is......" Zhou Gang reached out and pulled the front of the newspaper, just shredding Zhong Nuanyang's pen name.
