I really don't want to be a novelist

Chapter 291
"...Brother, what do you think of my Chinese version of the "Epic of the Empire"?"

"Well, the printed ones are okay."

Downstairs, under the gazebo, Ji Zhuo slumped on the sofa after dinner,
It really feels like there are so many books piled up in the room, and the space feels oppressive.
Just come out to enjoy the evening breeze.

Little Fatty is naturally there too, holding a brand new "Epic of the Empire" in his hand, probably just bought it today,

Still a little excited, I put it in front of Ji Zhuo and showed it to Ji Zhuo.

Ji Zhuo nodded and responded.

Xiao Pangdun excitedly flipped through the "Epic of the Empire" back and forth, then re-opened the place he had seen before and continued to read,
Ji Zhuo didn't speak any more, he turned his head to look at the night, yawning and blowing the wind.

But not long after, the little fat pier raised his head again.

"Brother, some of the details in the Chinese version of the "Imperial Epic" are really a little different from what you said earlier."

Nonsense, I wrote the book, and it is impossible for me to write down every sentence and every detail,
Forget the details, Ji Zhuo is all freshly edited.

Ji Zhuo glanced at Little Fatty,

"...But I feel that what you say, brother, is no worse than what you read in the book. Brother, why don't you write novels, it must be very good-looking."

Little Pang Dun's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of a great idea.

Hmm, what a great idea.

Ji Zhuo looked at Xiao Pangdun again, but said nothing.

"...Brother, look, the stories you told me earlier are a bit scary, but they are all quite interesting... If you write a novel, it must be no worse than this 'ABC'!"

"Mmmmmmm..."

Reasonable and reasonable!
Ji Zhuo fooled around a few times.

Little Pang Dun probably felt that Ji Zhuo should be perfunctory, and wanted to persuade Ji Zhuo a few words.

"Brother, look..."

"Any more chips?"

"Oh, yes, here is another bag, I brought out two bags here..."

Ji Zhuo touched the potato chips that Xiaopangdun handed over,

Just interrupted the little fat pier's high-spirited words.

The little chubby pier held the potato chips, paused, scratched his head,
Then I didn't say anything more, I also touched the potato chips, and watched "Epic of Empires" while eating.

Ji Zhuo was right next to him, leaning on the gazebo pillars, blowing the evening breeze, touching a handful of chubby potato chips to eat from time to time.

But the little fat pier is probably because Ji Zhuo told him the story before "Empire Epic",
After reading it for a while now, after reading the first chapter, I briefly broke away from the story, and then raised my head again.

"...Brother, have you read the update of the dog author today?"

"...Well, I can barely read it."

……

"...Boss, beef noodles! Add two fried eggs."

Fancheng.Ye Linhan took his mobile phone and went into the noodle shop he often visited.

There is no video production today, and it is another day of fishing.

In the book friend group, the sand sculpture readers who followed the dog author chatted for a while,
Watching the heated discussions between 'ABC' readers and 'Dog Author' readers on the Internet,
I watched the excitement with great interest, and occasionally ended up following the lively discussion.

To be honest,
Although he also reads works of 'ABC',
He likes it too.

But he still feels that "ABC" is not as good as "Dog Author".

Not because 'ABC' works like "Dog Author" are good,
It is simply that there are too few works, unlike the dog author, who spans multiple subject categories,

So much so that for readers of dog authors, the books of dog authors are just clicked in, who cares about the classification.

By comparison, 'ABC' is still pretty close.

By no means is it because he is an avid reader of 'Dog Author'.

"Okay...you sit down first."

The owner of the noodle shop answered back, and then entered the back kitchen.

Ye Linhan looked up at the noodle restaurant, then looked down at his phone.

"...The work of 'ABC' is indeed not bad, and "The Epic of the Empire" is also worthy of its title. But if it is better than the author of the dog, then I think it is a bit too much.

In other words, the two writers are not comparable.The dog author can write science fiction, fairy tales, science fiction, serious themes, horror themes, Cthulhu, Xiuxian have written, how does 'ABC' compare?
By sales?Just talk about the sales volume of each book "The Bird in the Cage", "Seven Days of Hell", and "The Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".
By quality?Not to mention the book by the dog author, just pick one of these books at random, which one is worse?
So readers of "Imperial Epic", you are not qualified to say that from the perspective of sales performance and quality reputation, the works of 'ABC' are better than my 'dog author'. "

In addition to being agitated, the discussion between the dog author readers and the ABC readers was relatively restrained.

However, compared with foreign countries, domestic or dog authors have more readers,
Don't look at the usual "dog author" and "dog author" shouting, when it comes to this "hot discussion", no matter where the Internet is, a bunch of people can pop up,

Only then did people realize that the author's influence and readership are so huge.

But also because of this,

This was discussed and discussed, and suddenly a statement popped up again,

Soon, more than half of the people who were "discussing" ran away.

"Have you read the dog author's update today? Are you still here?"

So, this lively place was being discussed, and there was no one there in an instant.

Even the readers who were on the 'ABC' side just now are gone.

Although I support 'ABC', it doesn't prevent this group of readers from reading novels written by dog ​​authors.

It's like Ye Linghan also read "The Epic of the Empire".

Ye Linhan, who was originally joining in the fun and watching the lively discussion,
Looking at this suddenly deserted scene,
grinned,

Then he sat down on the stool next to the dining table,
Also opened "Star Dream".

……

Ye Linghan sat opposite,
The son of the owner of the noodle shop, the young man was leaning against the back of the noodle shop, sitting at an empty table,

He was holding a book in his hand, "The Epic of the Empire".

I pre-ordered a copy on Jingpin Taobao, and it finally arrived this afternoon.

It's just a pity that it is said that there will be a signed version of "The Epic of the Empire" next, and he seems to have bought it early.

But it's good to buy early and see early.

After getting the book in the afternoon, he was immersed in the story of "The Epic of the Empire" and kept reading.

His father cooked a bowl of noodles for him, and he just fooled around a few mouthfuls before immersing himself in the world of books again.

But in the evening, it is rare to be briefly separated from the story of "The Epic of the Empire",
The boy began to hesitate again.

Today's update of "Star Dream" by the dog author should have been released.

Then he should temporarily put down "Epic of Empire" to watch the update,
It's better to save the updates first, and read "Empire Epic" in one go before watching "Star Dream".

I struggled repeatedly for a while, so it became what it is now.

The boy spread out the "Epic of the Empire", and his father's mobile phone was placed on the book,
The screen on the phone is on, showing today's update of "Star Dream",

Just look at it like this.

……

The story of the third chapter of Star Dream,

With the update of Ji Zhuo these days, it has made a lot of progress.

The previous plot has come,

The little girl Yuxi finally learned to cook alone,
Start from buying vegetables in the supermarket, and then go home to cut vegetables, fry vegetables, and cook.

She didn't ask her parents to help.

Waiting for the whole family to sit together, happy to finish the dinner made by the little girl alone.

The little girl moved out the glass jar she had hidden in the bedroom,
In the glass jar, the stars are almost full.

The little girl Yuxi squatted in front of the glass jar, carefully folding the stars,

Her father and mother also helped her fold the last star.

"...Dad, Mom..."

The little girl put a star she folded into a glass jar,

She also ran out of origami in her hand.

The little girl's eyes are bright, looking at the glass jar that is basically filled with stars,

Look at your parents again.

In the hands of father and mother, each has a star that has just been folded.

"Give."

Dad put the folded star into the hands of the little girl,
The mother also put the folded star into the other hand of the little girl.

The little girl holds the last star in each hand,

With brilliance sprouting in his eyes, he carefully put two stars into the glass jar at a time.

The glass jar was finally full too.

Picking up the lid of the glass jar, the little girl carefully screwed the lid back on.

Looking at the glass jar filled with stars, the little girl laughed happily.

"Dad... Mom..."

The little girl hugged her father first, and then reached out to hug her mother.

The mother and father also smiled, reaching out and gently hugging their daughter.

"...Yuxi, if your glass jar was full before and Dad hadn't come back, would Yuxi be angry?"

The father put his arms around the little girl and asked with a smile.

The little girl shook her head.

"No. I've already filled it once before... because the glass jar is too small, so it fills up quickly! Dad won't lie to me."

The little girl said firmly, and then looked at her father, grinning.

The father also smiled, hugged the little girl gently, and didn't ask any more questions.

The mother also stretched out her hand and gently stroked the little girl's hair.

"...Yuxi, do you want to watch TV? Dad will watch it with you."

The father said again to the little girl.

The little girl shook her head.

"No...I'm going to wash my hair."

The little girl shook her head, stroked her hair,

She has been learning to cook for the past two days, and her hair is a little greasy.

"...Mom, let me wash it for you."

The mother said to the little girl.

"No, I can already wash it myself."

The little girl shook her head. These days, with her father by her side, her mother has taught her to do many things alone.

She will also do many things by herself.

"...Mom will help you wash today."

Mother just said,

"Today, Yuxi has worked hard cooking and cooking, so my mother will wash your hair for you."

"Um……"

The little girl thought for a while, then nodded.

"thanks Mom."

"Then mom, I'll put the stars away first."

As the little girl said, holding the glass jar full of stars, she went back to the bedroom first,

After a while, he came out.

in the living room,
The man and the woman looked at each other, and the woman pursed her lips and smiled at her husband,
The man reached out and took his wife's hand.

"If you feel uncomfortable, take two more medicines."

"No."

The woman just pursed her lips and shook her head with a smile.

Then the two got up and went to the girl's bedroom door to wait for the little girl,

"...Dad, Mom. Why are you here, Dad?"

"Didn't Mom wash your hair, and Dad will accompany you and chat with you?"

"whee……"

The little girl was a little happy, giggling.

The woman took a stool to the bathroom, let the girl sit on the stool,

The shower head in the bathroom rushed out of the water. After the woman adjusted the water temperature,
Let the girl bow her head, give the girl wet hair, and wash her hair.

"Is it so hard to scratch?"

"Not heavy, hee hee..."

"dad……"

The girl answered first, and then called out to her father.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Father's voice sounded outside the bathroom door, standing by the bathroom door.

"...No, I closed my eyes and my mother washed my hair. If you don't talk, Dad, I don't know if you are here or not."

said the girl.

The father looked at his daughter, was silent for a while, then smiled and said to the girl,
"It's okay, even if you close your eyes and you can't see Dad, Dad didn't speak, and you can't hear Dad's voice. But Dad is always here, with you, don't be afraid."

"Uh-huh."

"Don't move around, the water from washing your hair will get into your ears after a while."

The little girl wanted to nod in response, but was asked warmly by her mother.

"I see, Mom."

The little girl happily agreed.

After washing the little girl's hair, the mother picked up the shower head and rinsed the girl's hair meticulously.

After rinsing, he took another clean towel and wiped the water from the girl's hair.
"father!"

The girl yelled again.

"I am here."

The father answered the girl's call again,

"mom!"

"Mom is wiping your hair, don't move around."

"Uh-huh."

Washed the girl's head.

Mother plugged in the hair dryer,

The girl sat by the bed in the bedroom of her parents,
It was her father who blow-dried her hair.

The father carefully took the hair dryer and dried the little girl's hair little by little.

The little girl squinted her eyes and was always happy.

"...Well, Yuxi, do you want Dad to tie up your hair?"

"Hmm...can I have my mother braid my hair?"

"Why, it doesn't look good to dislike the braids your father made for you."

"...Hee hee, it's better for Dad to braid my hair."

The father said with a smile, he was going to get out of the way and let the girl's mother come.

But the girl smiled and said so again.

The father paused again, and then combed the girl's hair carefully,

Very carefully, tie up the little girl's hair little by little.

"All right."

"So lovely!"

The girl praised.

Father also smiled,

The mother next to her also showed some smiles on her face.

"...Yuxi, tonight, you should sleep with your parents."

The mother paused and said to the girl.

"Really?"

The girl's eyes lit up.

Except for the few days when her father came back, the little girl was able to go back to the bedroom to sleep by herself slowly.

Just sleeping next to her parents, she still felt extra at ease.

"Um……"

The mother touched the girl's hair, and the father went to put away the hair dryer.

The girl put her feet away, pulled the quilt over the bed, and lay down on the bed with some joy.

The father and mother were lying beside the girl.

"...Dad, Mom...I'm so happy today...I can't sleep now."

"Then talk to Mom and Dad for a while?"

"Uh-huh……"

"...Mom, what do you want to eat tomorrow! Let me cook tomorrow... Where is Dad! Dad, what do you want to eat?"

"I can learn it all! I'm sure I'll learn it soon!"

The little girl talked excitedly to her parents again.

"Mom likes to eat the dish that you often make."

"Where's Dad?"

"Well... I like to eat whatever my baby likes to eat."

"Must have one!"

"Then stir fried pork with chili."

"Yeah... I remember."

"..."

"...Mom, I seem to be a little sleepy."

The little girl's excitement came and went quickly,

As the night gradually deepened, the little girl became sleepy again.

"Then mother puts you to sleep. Well... let father put you to bed too."

"Uh-huh……"

The father cushioned the little girl with his hands,

The mother patted the little girl gently, coaxing the little girl to sleep,
Waiting for the little girl to feel a little drowsy, the mother paused for a moment, and then said something more,

"Yuxi... If mom comes back late tomorrow, mom left you a book in the drawer, you can read it if you have anything to do in the house, you know?"

"Hmm...I see, Mom...Mom, are you going to work again tomorrow?"

"Um……"

"Where's Dad?"

"Dad, too..."
