“......”

Lin Yuan's answer once shattered some of Huang Benyu's long-standing cognitions, but thinking that there was a more demonic Gu Xi in the school, he suddenly felt a little relieved.

That's a good thing.

This shows that our school is full of talents.

In fact, without a professional ear like Huang Benyu, it is absolutely impossible to taste how mature Lin Yuan's skills are, and the students in the class can only come to a very similar conclusion-

Lin Yuan plays the piano very well.

However, after Lin Yuan showed a song, Huang Benyu did not say the words of "I'm not targeting anyone, I'm talking about how everyone here" is a large-scale and indiscriminate attack.

In the next piano lesson, Huang Benyu's speech had a routine prefix:

"Except for Lin Yuan, you all have to memorize this knowledge point. ”

"Except for Lin Yuan, I believe that no one else will understand why this is done here. ”

"Except for Lin Yuan, everyone should practice this piece after class, especially the last part. ”

"Except for Lin Yuan's classmate......"

Anyway, after a piano lesson, the words "except for Lin Yuan" almost became Huang Benyu's mantra.

Probably in Huang Benyu's heart, it was hoped that Lin Yuan had better be like Gu Xi and not come to piano lessons.

He is willing to give credits!

And Lin Yuan's peaceful campus life will not change because he showed off his hand in piano lessons.

If anything, it's probably that he's more popular in the class.

Also.

Poor health, good personality, handsome, study hard, and play the piano well, it is difficult for such an excellent and good character student to be hated.

In fact.

When Lin Yuan first transferred to the composition department, the classmates in the class once thought that Lin Yuan was very cold, but after everyone came into contact, no one felt that Lin Yuan was cold-

Talking less and being cold are two concepts, this boy just doesn't like to talk.

The days that followed.

Lin Yuan didn't like to talk as always, and he studied hard as always, and his grades in his major courses had completely kept up with the progress, and he was no longer affected by the sudden change of department in his sophomore year.

And in the midst of such a peaceful day, March is coming imperceptibly.

At this time when it is warm and cold, the weather in March is still cold, and people don't want to get out of the bed easily.

At this time, the smell of the year fades.

The latest issue of "Net King" is still selling well.

Also issued on March 1st, there are also published in "Fun" magazine, as well as Chu Mad's new work-

The short story "The Gift of the Magi".

Lin Yuan also received several sets of sample periodicals from the Silver Blue Library for free on this day.

Definition of sample journal is the newspaper and periodical newspaper that the editorial department of the newspaper provides to the author free of charge after the author's work is published, and the provision of sample journal is the obligation of the newspaper and periodical to the author.

I got a sample issue of "Fun Reading".

Lin Yuan saw that "The Gift of the Magi" was placed in the most conspicuous publicity position on the cover of the magazine, and the four big words "Chu Mad New Work" suddenly came into view.

This represents the importance that editors attach to the story.

However, the publicity effect of "Chu Mad's New Works" is actually not large, because the users who like to buy "Fun Reading" magazine do not overlap much with the group of readers who like youth fantasy novels.

After all, Chu Mad became famous for his youth fantasy novels.

If you are not interested in youth fantasy novels, some buyers of "Fun Reading" don't even know who Chu Mad is, but when they see the cover promotion, many people will look forward to the story promoted by the cover.

......

Han Jimei is the Tribal Literature Operations Officer, that is, the person in charge of the Tribal Literature section, and her future goal and work task is to build the Tribal Literature section into a fragmented reading and leisure base for users to get used to.

As a woman who loves to read, she loves her job and has a habit of subscribing to some magazines every month.

The best-selling magazines in Qinzhou are of high quality.

There are always a lot of good short stories on it.

It's not that Han Jimei doesn't like long stories, it's just that for a professional woman like her, who is busy with work, the time required for long reading is really luxurious, and short stories don't delay too much time because of their short length.

Today is the beginning of March.

All kinds of books have a new day, so this month's magazine alone Han Jimei bought a full six, but the first thing that caught her attention was the latest issue of the best-selling magazine "Fun Reading".

It's not how much she likes "Fun Read".

It's because the cover of this magazine is actually promoting Chu Mad's new work.

You must know that last month, Chu Mad also wrote a short story in tribal literature that received a very good response.

The story called "Artificial Beauty" is really cleverly conceived, and it is a rare masterpiece.

Han Jimei was still expecting Chu Mad to write some new short stories in the literature section of the tribe, but she didn't expect that Chu Mad had now completely shifted his position and ran to "Fun Reading" to serialize.

"Look at what you wrote this time. ”

Although I felt a pity in my heart that Chu Mad did not continue to choose the tribe as a publishing platform, Han Jimei was still very curious about what Chu Mad wrote in his new work this time.

Flip straight through the first few short stories.

Han Jimei watched "Maggie's Gift" first.

Many people may not understand what "Maggie's gift" means, and think that the protagonist of the story will be called Maggie, but Han Jimei, as a reader with a lot of reading, knows that most of the protagonists of the story are not called Maggie-

This is related to the Christmas legend of Wei Zhou.

There is also Christmas in Qinzhou, but Christmas is not a mainstream festival in Qinzhou, and there is not even a holiday.

Wei Zhou's side is different.

They had a Christmas habit, and many of them believed in Christ, and legend has it that at the time of Jesus' birth, three wise men sent gifts, and since then there has been a custom of exchanging gifts at Christmas-

This should be the origin of the title.

At this time, Han Jimei began to read: [Tomorrow is Christmas, Mrs. A only has three yuan and eight cents to buy a gift for her husband, obviously she saved money for a few months, and she saved everything she could, but the result was only this. 】

It's called Mrs. A?

Chu Mad's name is too lazy.

Han Jimei complained in her heart, but she understood the first expression of the story.

This is a woman in distress, who is counting the few changes she has in her hand over and over again, worrying about what gifts to give her husband tomorrow Christmas.

The story should be set many years ago.

At that time, the value of money was still very high.

But apparently three dollars and eight cents is not much.

[She suddenly turns from the window and stands in front of the wall mirror to look at herself, her eyes shining brightly, but her face is discolored in twenty seconds.] She quickly untied her hair and let it fall down. 】

What is she going to do?

Han Jimei guessed Mrs. A's intentions.

She even developed some exaggerated associations, such as Mrs. A selling her body for money, and the first customer she met was her husband.

It's not that Han Jimei is unhealthy.

In some special eras, it is not uncommon for someone to sell their bodies for life, Chu Mad may want to restore the cruel side of that era, but if it is only for Christmas gifts......

Isn't the reason too far-fetched?
