A book, Qin Xi and Qin Jiang read together, one is to review the old and learn the new, the other is to ask for advice, when they are usually fine, they take a branch and write and draw on the mud floor.

A few days later, Qin Xi and Qin Jiang went to the supply and marketing cooperative, bought two pencils and two books, one was to practice calligraphy, and the other was to try to write something.

Like picking herbs and mushrooms, the money is still too slow and hard, Qin Xi has to find another way out, and writing articles for the newspaper is one of them.

This is a new attempt, even Qin Xi, who had only written for the club before, in her time, the newspaper was very far away from her life, and she rarely even read it, but now she wants to make a living from it, which is a challenge for her.

When she first arrived, she couldn't figure out this way, so she went to the scrapyard to get some old newspapers and came back to read.

In the end, she planned to submit articles to the Ping Shi, that is, the Ping Bao in her urban area, because among the pile of old newspapers she got back, this newspaper had the most newspapers, and she read and studied the most.

The newspaper had the contact number of the newspaper and the address, the phone number was impossible, she had not seen this precious thing after coming to this place for so long, and she planned to write a letter directly to the newspaper.

As for the content, the autumn harvest is about to begin, and is it more appropriate to use this incident to praise the laborers and the leaders of the party and the state?

After determining the theme, Qin Xi began to write, and she was very clear about what should be written and what should not be mixed with her, the whole article was a celebration of merit, positive things, those sensitive things, she didn't dare to touch them at all, and she shouldn't touch them.

It took Qin Xi three days just to write this article, and then another two days to polish and revise, until she read and recited it dozens of times, knew the content inside well, and made sure that the content of the article was smooth and simple, so she stopped writing.

Qin Xi has high hopes for this article, and naturally hopes to hit it immediately.

On the day of the twelfth, Qin Jiang accompanied Qin Xi to the post office, sent the letter, Qin Xi bought a complete set of zodiac stamps, no way, I really can't help it, this thing is very collectible at a glance, I met, I don't buy a whole set of collections, I feel like I am destroying the heavens.

Of course, adding value or something, it's all her guessing, and who can say for sure what will happen in the future.

Even if it doesn't increase in value in the future, it's good to buy a set for collection, after all, this is a stamp of the zodiac, and it is pleasing to the eye when you look at it.

She bought a total of thirteen stamps, the zodiac ones, five cents each, which cost her six cents, and as for the envelopes, she bought the cheapest ones, two cents a piece.

In the first two days of casting, Qin Xi's mood was so anxious that he didn't even want to go out, for fear of missing the email.

The address she filled in was Qin's house at No. 30 Ping'an Street, and she had no other choice than this address.

Although she is not very willing to let her family know about her contribution, this is inevitable, she can only hope that her family will find out later, or if she finds out, but ask less about some things that are not, because some things are really tiring to explain, and some things may not be explained clearly.

If it was Qin Qing, who was in the first year of junior high school, whether it was Liu Qin or Li Chunhua, their first reaction would be pride, but if they changed to Qin Xi, who had never been to school and didn't know a single word in their eyes, their first reaction must be suspicion.

One day and two days, three days and four days, there has been no news, and gradually, Qin Xi's expectations are getting less and less.

At noon on the 20th, a postman suddenly came to the door of the house, and Qin Xi happened to be at home that day.

"Qin Xi is your family, right? There is her letter. ”

"Mmmm, just give it to me, I'm Qin Xi."

After Qin Xi signed his name, he successfully got the letter.

When she didn't get the letter before, she was always entangled in this and that, and this letter was in her hands, whether it was a rejection or a success, there was finally a result.

Qin Xi couldn't wait to open the envelope, the first thing he saw was a piece of stationery, and after taking it out, he found that there was a remittance slip in the envelope.

Opening the letterhead, Qin Xi found that it was a letter from the editor of Ping Pao to her, which stated that they welcomed her contribution and hoped that she would continue to contribute to their newspaper in the future.

For a newcomer like her, who is not famous, the manuscript fee is generally 2 yuan per thousand words.

As for the remittance slip, Qin Xi can go to the post office to withdraw five yuan, but she still needs her identity certificate when she withdraws the money, and now she doesn't have an ID card, so she needs the piece of paper on her household registration book.

But how can she get that piece of paper in her mother's hand?

Confess? Then the ownership of the manuscript fee for her future submission will definitely not belong to her, it is a few dollars, not a few cents.

Conceal? If you really want to hide it, then you have to think about it in the future, and as for the piece of paper that belongs to her in the household registration book, you have to secretly get it.

The household registration book is still very easy to take, before her mother took the household registration book to register Qin Qing and the twins, if she remembers correctly, the household registration book is placed in the large wardrobe of their room, their room is generally not locked, but the wardrobe will, the clothes and bedding inside are important assets of the family, if you don't lock it, it will be harmed by mice.

Of course, if it is locked, the rat may also be harmed, because the rat's teeth are very powerful, and they will make holes in the wardrobe, after all, it is wood, how can it be worthy of the steel teeth of the mouse.

Liu Qin and Qin Shan have two keys to their wardrobes, one in Liu Qin's hand and one in Li Chunhua's hand, many of her important things are placed in the big wardrobe, after all, their room doesn't even have a decent small table, let alone a large item such as a wardrobe, so the cotton clothes and quilts worn in winter can only be put in their rooms.

At noon, Li Chunhua finished lunch, as usual, lying in bed for a morning break, Qin Xi sat directly next to her without blushing and heartbeat, and his hand got into the straw under the mat, and it was useless for three seconds, so he got the key that Li Chunhua put there.

Liu Qin and Qin Shan's house is not locked, when they sleep at night, they can lock the door from the inside, but during the day, people are not at home, they at most take the lock to fasten the door frame, the lock is not, Li Chunhua will not allow it, after all, in her opinion, lock the door in broad daylight, who is this to prevent?

Qin Xi entered Liu Qin's room, while Qin Jiang stayed outside to watch the wind.

Less than three minutes after entering, Qin Xi came out, and in her pocket was her household registration page, and she would be able to go to the post office with Qin Jiang to withdraw money later.

As for the key, of course it was put back, she didn't move the things in the house that shouldn't be taken, she had money in her hand, and she could buy what she wanted.
