The Sick Beauty Dressed in Chronology [70] Verse 198
Captain Feng returned home with a bag of things and a comic book.
Gu Yijia was sitting in front of the fire pit while warming himself while waiting for him, when he heard the sound of the door opening, he immediately greeted him.
"Brother Rin, you're back!"
Feng Rin was cold, and his hands were cold, and when she pounced, he held her arm, "You wait a while, I'm cold." ”
Gu Yijia obediently sat back and looked at the things he had brought back.
Although she said that she didn't want to buy anything for the head of the regiment, the man still took advantage of his free time to buy a lot of things in the department stores in the city, and he had everything to eat.
As she was watching, Captain Feng, who had changed her clothes, came over and handed her a comic book.
Gu Yijia's heart moved, "This is ......"
Regiment Commander Feng said: "Comrade Fang came back in the army's car today, and asked me to give you this comic book, and she said that she would come to you tomorrow." ”
Hearing this, Gu Yijia had already determined that the comic strip they drew had been published.
Although Fang Meiyi has not heard from her, she is sure that the comic book can be published, but there is no quasi-letter, and she is still a little hesitant. At this point, even the sample book is available, and the dust has finally settled.
She pursed her lips and slowly flipped through the comic strips to calm the excitement in her heart.
How can it not be excited?
No matter how confident she is, she can't be sure that what she draws will be published.
Comic strips are different from making clothes, making clothes is only a small area of business, for her, it is like earning some living expenses, passing the time, so that she will not be too wasteful, but also her poor health, helpless choice.
And drawing comic strips, if they can be published, will face more groups, and also give her a more enviable profession: painter.
These are her capital.
Even if she can't do a lot of work in this life due to physical reasons, she doesn't want to really be a waste, so she can only wait for others to support her.
Life is so long, you always have to have your own career.
Feng Rin washed his hands and looked at her.
His observation was always keen, and he didn't feel the agitation of her mood, her movements of turning the book were so gentle, her lips were unconsciously pursed, her long curled eyelashes drooped slightly, and she couldn't see the emotions in those eyes, but judging from her reaction, her mood was extremely excited at this time.
Gu Yijia finally finished flipping through the comic strip, then put it aside, and turned his head to look at Head Feng.
"Brother Rin."
Commander Feng responded, and when he saw her rushing over happily, he was also ready, and hugged her with open arms, as he had done a thousand times before.
She jumped and jumped in his arms, holding his face with both hands and kissing and kissing hard.
"Brother Rin, I'm so excited, I'm ...... cough cough cough ......"
Head Feng was startled, and hurriedly patted her on the back to smooth her breath, and hurriedly said: "Don't get excited, inhale and exhale......
For people who are not in good health, they should not be too excited, because once they are too excited, they will lead to bad consequences, such as coughing and gasping for breath.
After a long time, Gu Yijia finally stopped coughing and drank half a glass of warm water from his hand.
Her face was flushed, and her eyes were stained with physiological tears from the violent coughing, misty, pitiful and lovely.
Gu Yijia leaned on his arms, rested his chin on his shoulder, let him give her a sigh, and said, "It's so good......
"Brother Rin, I'll be a painter from now on."
"I really didn't expect that I would be able to publish my own work, and the circumstances of my life would be so different."
In the last life, when she was born, the children's growth has been very volatile, to learn this and that, as long as the family economy allows, parents will give children a lot of interest classes, among which painting is the most popular newspaper, whether you have talent or not, you have to learn, back to learn this, and then you will be able to use it when you go to school.
When Gu Yijia first knew how to hold a pen, she was also stuffed into a painting class by her mother.
Everyone is rolling, and if you don't roll it, you can't talk about it.
However, learning to paint is just a skill for her, and she really didn't think about becoming a painter.
Who knew that what she had learned before had now become the capital of her employment, and even she did not dare to imagine that she now had an amazing identity.
Feng Rin listened to it, although he couldn't understand what she meant, but he could feel the emotion in her words.
He quietly changed the subject, "Comrade Fang said that he would come to see you tomorrow, and he should come over with the manuscript fee." ”
Gu Yijia said with a smile: "I don't know how much the manuscript fee is, but I promised you that if it can be published, I will invite you to go to the restaurant." She looked up at him, "Head Feng, when are you free, I invite you to go down to the restaurant." ”
Head Feng smiled at the corner of his mouth, "When the weather is warm, let's go to the restaurant." ”
"No problem, just wait and eat."
When he went to bed at night, Gu Yijia was still very excited, and he couldn't fall asleep over and over.
In the end, the head of the Feng regiment directly covered her and pulled her to do bedtime exercises together, which finally consumed her high spirit and let her fall asleep.
The result of exercising too late is that you can't get up on the second day.
When Gu Yijia finally got up, Fang Meiyi and Zhuang Yijia had been waiting for her for a long time.
Fang Meiyi asked the single dog: "What time did you sleep last night?" Why do you get up so late? ”
Zhuang Yijia, who had come over, was almost choked to death by her, her face was so red that she was about to drip blood, and her small eyes glanced at Gu Yijia. Jiajia's body is so delicate, so that the head of the regiment is ...... It's good that she can get up, and it's okay if she gets up late.
Gu Yijia said calmly: "No way, I was so excited last night that I couldn't sleep until midnight." ”
Her expression was too serious, which made Zhuang Yijia, who originally wanted to be crooked, stunned, it turned out that this was the reason, not what she thought?
Fang Meiyi didn't doubt it, and said happily: "It turns out that you also have times when you are not calm." Then he said with great interest, "You don't know, after the editor-in-chief read your sketches, he made a decision on the spot to publish them, mainly because your story is really good, the main tone is warm and funny, and people can't help but smile when they see it, this is already the first step of success, plus your painting style is very smooth, and the paintings are very good-looking, if you can't publish it, it will be unreasonable." ”
Gu Yijia nodded and said, "Actually, if you didn't call us back so that we don't have to paint, I knew that this manuscript would pass." ”
Zhuang Yijia's eyes widened, "Is that so?" That's why you've been urging me to rush the manuscript? It seemed that he finally understood why Gu Yijia was so urging, and he couldn't help but knock his head in annoyance, and said embarrassedly, "Jiajia, you should have told me." ”
Gu Yijia said calmly: "Meiyi didn't have an accurate answer over there, and I can't tell you, what if it's not, isn't it a joke?" ”
Zhuang Yijia thought about it and felt that it was the same, and quickly turned the matter over.
Then Fang Meiyi gave them the manuscript fee for this issue, and at the same time took out the contract of the publishing house.
"Our editor-in-chief wants to sign you to become the painter of our publishing house's comic strips, and you will be given a very high salary, so you can take a look, and if there is no problem, you will sign it, and then I will be your editor, responsible for your work......
Gu Yijia looked through the contract and looked at it very seriously, and Zhuang Yijia also flipped through it excitedly.
The contract does give them a very high salary, and they are marked with a share and the like, which is so detailed that people can't find fault with it, which shows that the publishing house has a good opinion of them.
Gu Yijia asked: "Isn't the treatment in this contract too good?" ”
"That's natural, because you're worth it." Fang Meiyi smiled and said, "This is what I fought for you, and the publishing house also looks down on you." ”
Zhuang Yijia herself has been in the publishing house herself, and she knows something about the contract of the publishing house, her face is flushed, "I, I have no opinion, what about you, Jiajia?" ”
Gu Yijia said: "I have no opinion. ”
With Fang Meiyi here, naturally they will not suffer.
Both signed the contract and then began to split the money.
When the money was in hand, everyone was very happy, and Zhuang Yijia was even more enthusiastic, eager to go to the sketch right away, and to draw the story in one go.
Fang Meiyi also got the next draft.
She was very happy, "I didn't expect you to draw it, you don't need me to urge it, it's so good!" ”
Gu Yijia drank tea and said with a smile: "Thanks to Yijia's hard work, even Camp Commander Xu was snubbed by her for the sake of the draft." ”
"I don't have it." Zhuang Yijia's face turned red, and she said in a snort, "I'm not here for work." ”
Gu Yijia said with a smile: "Yes, yes, Yijia works very seriously, thanks to her, I don't have to spend so much energy, otherwise my body can't stand it." ”
Her tone was calm, so that Fang Meiyi and Zhuang Yijia suddenly didn't know how to answer.
In fact, as long as people who are close to her, they can see that her health is not very good, because of this, they sometimes don't take care of her, Zhuang Yimei is also willing to do more by herself, so as not to let her spend too much energy.
Gu Yijia saw all these things in his eyes and remembered them in his heart.
When others treat her well, she naturally won't be too stingy.
Chapter 139
Fang Meiyi left with the next draft.
Before leaving, she said to Gu Yijia and Zhuang Yijia: "You have to hurry up and draw, the next issue will be published before the year, and then everyone will have a good New Year!" After the New Year, I will take another issue back, otherwise I will wait for the editor-in-chief to come and scold you. ”
Zhuang Yijia was beaten with chicken blood, patting his chest and guaranteeing that he would be able to complete the task.
Then she took the task given to her by Gu Yijia and went home to retreat with high morale.
Gu Yijia didn't feel guilty at all, encouraged her with a smile, and then took the comic book that Fang Meiyi brought back, and went back to her brother and sister-in-law's house with Head Feng.
When she entered, she took out the comic book.
"Big brother, sister-in-law, Baoshan Baohua, look, "Cats and Dogs Wandering Fairy Tale" has been published!"
In an instant, everyone looked over, and Baohua screamed even more and pounced directly.
"Little aunt, show me quickly!"
Gu Yijia gave her the comic strip, stood there, greeted everyone's amazement, and rarely gave birth to a little pride.
Chen Aifang and Gu Mingcheng were naturally not stingy in complimenting, and Baoshan also leaned over to read the comic book with his sister.
It was a different feeling to look at the sketch and the comic book that had already been paid, especially when they knew that the comic book was the work of their little aunt.
In short, the Gu family was very happy for Gu Yijia.
Chen Aifang said happily: "You guys are going to eat here today, and I'm going to kill a chicken to celebrate." ”
The army did not have such a strict limit on the number of chickens raised by each household, as long as it did not exceed the exceedance, because their family also raised several chickens and ducks, which were originally raised to be eaten for the Chinese New Year.
But at this time, there is only half a month before the Chinese New Year, and it is okay to kill a chicken in advance.
Over there, Baohua and Baoshan finally finished reading this issue of the comic strip, and when they turned to the last page, they found that it was gone, which made the two children who were still a little anxious.
"Little aunt, what's down there?" Baohua was so anxious that she couldn't do it, "When can I see it below?" ”
Baoshan also asked: "Can you see it a year ago?" ”
Gu Yijia said: "It depends on the publishing house, when your Aunt Meiyi comes back, see if she brings it back." ”
