Rebirth of Rural Literary Life

Chapter 78 Novel with illustrations (Thank you for your rewards and monthly tickets, I can’t write the title)
With Liu Aixia's help, He Ping accepted the sweater Mao Chunhua gave him, and a layer of window paper seemed to be pierced between the two of them.

Before Liu Aixia left, she bit Mao Chunhua's ears for a while, but she didn't know what she was talking about. Anyway, Mao Chunhua's originally ruddy face became even more rosy.

He Ping bid farewell to Mao Chunhua who was reluctant to leave him, and rode his bicycle to the county seat.

Today he wants to fulfill what he promised Xiao Zhuer and buy books for Xiao Zhuer.

The Xinhua Bookstore in Dongguan, the county seat, was the only place to go, and He Ping rode a bicycle to find him.

After entering the door, the salesperson still has an attitude of life and death. Someone enters the door without saying hello, and just waits for the customer to speak first.

"Hello comrade, I want to buy some books for my children, about ten years old."

"Do you want popular science or literature?"

"Is "One Hundred Thousand Whys" available?" He Ping thought about this when he came here. The child is still young, and he hasn't read all the characters yet, and he can't appreciate books selling novels, poetry, and prose.

"One Hundred Thousand Whys" is a good popular science book for teenagers. Although some characters are not yet known, it is considered to be a new word.

"Do you have fairy tale books here?"

"There are "Sparkling Red Star" and "Little Hero Rain Comes"."

You call this a fairy tale?

He Ping complained in his heart, these days there are really few fairy tale books just for children to read, at least there will be a Zheng Yuanjie in China in later generations.

Huh!This is really a direction. After the wool of short sci-fi is over, we can squeeze the wool of fairy tale novels!
This saves me from having to ask the old captain to borrow money after the expansion of the courtyard is completed. The old man belongs to Pixiu, so it would be too much effort to ask him to produce something.

After picking and choosing, He Ping chose a set of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" published by Juvenile and Children's Publishing House in 62 and a set of comic strips "Little Soldier Zhang Ga". "Xiao Zhu'er may not like it when he sees it, but he definitely likes the comic strips of "Little Soldier Zhang Ga".

It was already noon when He Ping got home, and Xiao Zhu'er had already prepared meals in advance.

"It's really capable." He Ping praised Xiao Zhu'er, seeing the child's bright eyes looking at him, he knew what the little guy was looking forward to.

"Here, the book I promised you."

Xiao Zhuer took the two heavy sets of books, and said sweetly, regardless of the weight, "Thank you, Dad."

"Look good, but don't forget to do your winter homework."

"Ok!"

After lunch, Xiao Zhu'er couldn't wait to get into the study to read a book.

He Ping also started his "creation". He thought that he wanted to read fairy tales to his son before going to bed, but he bought a lot of fairy tale books in a certain store. He chose Su Huai's novel "" Adventures of Crickets".

"The Adventures of Cricket" describes the adventure process of the protagonist and his friends in the world of animals and humans in the tone of a cricket.Every time he goes through an ordeal, he gets a precious lesson and understands something.

In the process, he gradually grows from being arrogant, reckless, and ruthless at the beginning to a cricket full of kindness, love, dreams, and pursuit of peace. Datong" ideal!

This novel was recommended by a friend at the time. To be honest, when He Ping heard that the author was a Southern barbarian, He Ping refused in his heart. But after he tried to read it, he found that the perspective of this novel is indeed very unique. The plot is tortuous and vivid, and the scene description is delicate and touching.The whole work is fascinating to read, and even an adult can find it fun and enlightening, let alone a child.

Although writers have nationalities, good literary works really have no distinction of nationality.

After choosing a work, He Ping began his creative writing.

Although "The Adventure of Cricket" is a fairy tale novel, it is still a novel, and at the speed of He Ping's handwriting, it would take several days to finish.

He Ping was concentrating on "creation" at home when the postman Kan Lijun from the commune came.

"Huo! The house you built is really arrogant."

After more than half a year of contact, the two were considered acquaintances, and Kan Lijun was not polite, so he directly entered the room and handed him the letter.

"It's okay, I just want to live more comfortably."

Kan Lijun said enviously: "How can you live in a more comfortable place, the houses in the city are not as good!"

After the two exchanged a few words, Kan Lijun left, and he had to continue to deliver the letter.

The letter was still from the magazine, and the content of the letter was nothing. As always, the manuscript was notified, and the words were very respectful. He Ping has now become a major contributor to "Science Fiction World". "Teacher He".

The only pity is that there are no gifts from readers and fans in it. What's the use of just writing letters? Just say a few nice words and you want me to add more?Good idea!
A remittance slip for the manuscript fee was included in the letter, 625 yuan.

It is the largest manuscript fee that He Ping has received since he submitted the manuscript. After all, it is the amount of three short stories.

It's a little bit reluctant not to contribute articles to a magazine like "Science Fiction World" that is not bad for money in the future, but who made our inventory empty.It’s not that there are no science fiction novels in the mobile phone. What’s left in the mobile phone are the more famous novels of later generations. He Ping hasn’t planned to publish them yet, but it’s a pity to serialize them in “Science Fiction World”. Let’s talk about them when we have a chance.

It took more than ten days before and after He Ping finished writing the novel "The Adventures of Crickets".

After He Ping finished writing, he always felt that there was something wrong. After comparing it with his mobile phone, he found that he had read the illustration version before. The illustrations in it were very exquisite, and the reading experience with the text full of emotion was excellent.Now there are only bare words left, and I always feel that there is a little bit of meaning missing.

He Ping scratched his head and was a little entangled in the illustrations. The reading experience of the text alone is not good, but it is only for him, a reader who has read the original version, and other people have not read the original work. How can there be such a comparison? It feels like it doesn't matter.

He suddenly remembered that some time ago when he went to the post office to make a phone call, he saw Mao Chunhua's paintings when he was bored. It seemed that this girl's painting skills were not low, anyway, he stunned He Ping, a layman. At that time, Mao Chunhua said However, his teacher is still from Lumei, so he can be regarded as a famous teacher and a high-ranking apprentice.

How about asking Mao Chunhua to help draw some illustrations for the novel?
He Ping looked down at the sweater on his body, the matter had come to an end, it seemed that it would be okay to bother her again.

Such a happy decision.
