The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 281 Publication
Zhou Rong didn't want to go out to work, but just wanted to stay at home and prepare for the college entrance examination with all her strength. She had put down her books for several years, and it was not easy to pick them up again.

"If you don't go out to work, how can you support two people just relying on my salary?" Feng Huacheng certainly wanted Zhou Rong to work to reduce the burden on the family.

"When we were in Guizhou, we came here without wages! Now we can still have a balance of more than ten yuan a month, which is more than enough." Zhou Rong said.

"That's Guizhou, and this is the capital, how can I live on a dozen dollars." Feng Huacheng's voice was slightly louder.

Zhou Rong said bluntly: "There are many people in the capital who can support a large family with more than ten yuan, why can't we live?"

Feng Huacheng said: "Our salary can't just live on! I also have contacts in my work unit, and they all need money."

"You are a writer, you can create with a pen and a piece of paper, what kind of human relationship do you want?" Zhou Rong asked puzzled.

Feng Huacheng said speechlessly, "Why are you so childish."

Zhou Rong became angry and shouted, "Why am I naive?"

Feng Huacheng said: "The job is not that simple. Unless I don't want to be promoted, it's not enough to just complete my job."

Zhou Rong stayed at home until she was 19 years old, and later chased Feng Huacheng to Guizhou. She had no experience in the workplace and lacked sophistication.

Feng Huacheng is different. He has worked hard for half his life, and he knows too well that talent alone is not enough to work in the capital.

Compared with talent, Feng Huacheng is not afraid of anyone, but he is not very good at other aspects.

To be honest, he has nothing but talent.

"If I go out to work, it will affect my review." Zhou Rong finally softened, and said to Feng Huacheng: "Huacheng, let's stick to it for half a year. When I get into university, everything will be fine."

Feng Huacheng said: "With your level, you can be admitted to university even if you work part-time and study part-time."

Zhou Rong gritted her teeth and said, "I want to be admitted to a first-rate college, and I want to go to Qingbei."

Feng Huacheng said in surprise, "Why are you pushing yourself so hard?"

Zhou Rong snorted coldly: "If I don't get into Qingbei, it will be difficult for me to overwhelm Zhou Bingkun."

Feng Huacheng was speechless, why are you arguing with your younger brother, besides, it will prove that you are better than your younger brother by being admitted to Qingbei?
"Let's not aim too high, first ensure that we can get into university, and then try to get into Qingbei." Feng Huacheng sat down and comforted his wife.

"No, I have to take the Qingbei exam, otherwise I will lose my face and return to Jichun." Zhou Rong said firmly.

Feng Huacheng had a headache. He knew his wife too well. Zhou Rong was the kind of person who, once he decided on something, would do it regardless.

Just like she went to Guizhou alone back then.

The couple started to quarrel about work and university entrance exams.

No one could convince anyone, and the last truce was because the neighbors came to complain.

"What's the noise during the New Year's Eve? They keep people from sleeping."

Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng could only stop arguing when they heard their neighbors shouting and cursing, but they fell into a cold war.

…………

Jichun, the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen suddenly visited Wang Gang's house.

"Mr. Ma, why are you here? I just wanted to take Juan'er to your house to celebrate the New Year?"

Wang Gang warmly welcomed Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen into the room, and asked Zheng Juan to pour some tea.

"I heard that you bought a new house, why didn't you invite me to come and have a sit down, our two families are not far apart now." Ma Shouchang walked into the house without pretensions, and looked around.

"It's not long since I bought it, and I haven't had time to report to you." Wang Gang let out a haha ​​before passing.

"You chose this house well. You should use your royalties to buy it!" Qu Xiuzhen said with a smile.

"I can't hide anything from you." Wang Gang replied.

About Xiangjiang's contribution, Wang Gang didn't hide it from Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.

"Your military-themed novels are well written, why did you write martial arts instead?" Ma Shouchang complained.

"Bright Sword can't be published, I want to make money to support my family!" Wang Gang said helplessly.

Ma Shouchang likes the bright sword written by Wang Gang very much, but this kind of novel has too many restrictions and can't make money at all, so Wang Gang just tasted it.

"I think Xiao Zhou's writing of Shooting the Condors is very good. I earn money by my ability. As long as I don't break the principle, why not?" Qu Xiuzhen said to Ma Shouchang.

"What do you know? This kid is talented. It's a pity that he doesn't need to go to the right place." Ma Shouchang said regretfully.

"What is the right place, Comrade Ma, you can't look at things with your old eyes." Qu Xiuzhen put her waist on her waist, as if doing ideological work for her subordinates.

"I've read the original manuscript of Shooting the Condors, and there is nothing wrong with it. The idea of ​​defending the home and the country is very good!"

Ma Shouchang was taken aback, he didn't expect his wife to like martial arts novels.

"Bright sword is no better than shooting eagles." Ma Shouchang argued.

Two veteran cadres, at Wang Gang's house, had an argument over the subject of the novel, and Wang Gang stood aside, unable to intervene, and had to keep smiling.

The old couple didn't stop arguing until Feng Yue ran out, and instead teased the child together.

Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen had troubles in their early years, and their only son also broke away from them.

Later, after the two were rehabilitated, they also reconciled with their son, but it was difficult for the family of three to return to the past.

The son also concentrates on developing in Shanghai and rarely returns to Jichun.

Ma Shouchang and his wife lived too lonely, but they liked the sweet-mouthed Feng Yue very much.

"Grandpa Ma, Yueyue likes you the most."

As soon as Feng Yue came up, she threw herself on Ma Shouchang, making him laugh out loud.

"Xiao Yueyue, you don't like Grandpa Ma, you like the candy I brought!"

Ma Shouchang grabbed a handful of candy from his pocket.

"Big White Rabbit Toffee." Feng Yue jumped up happily, grabbing Ma Shouchang's hand with his little hand.

"Yueyue, don't eat too much sugar, it will damage your teeth." Wang Gang said in a deep voice.

Feng Yue didn't move immediately, looked at Wang Gang cautiously, and begged, "Uncle, I'll just eat three, no, two!"

Wang Gang sullenly, Feng Yue withdrew another finger.

"I'll just eat one, okay?"

Feng Yue's small eyes were tearful, Wang Gang was fine, but Qu Xiuzhen couldn't stand it.

"What's the matter with children eating some candy, at worst, brush your teeth after eating." Qu Xiuzhen gave Wang Gang a white look, and then stuffed the candy into Feng Yue.

"Yueyue, listen to Grandma Qu, let's eat candy."

Feng Yue glanced at Wang Gang cautiously, but didn't eat the candy right away.

"You are only allowed to eat two, and put away the rest, and eat later." Wang Gang said with a straight face.

Feng Yue happily took out a candy, peeled off the wrapper, and stuffed the candy directly into his mouth.

"You are too strict." Qu Xiuzhen said to Wang Gang speechlessly.

"You don't know, this child is too smart, you can't control him for a day, if you are not strict now, it will be even more difficult to control in the future." Wang Gang said helplessly.

"Xiao Zhou did the right thing. There are no rules, and it's the same with taking care of children. Blind indulgence is harming children." Ma Shouchang nodded and smiled.

"I can't say no to you, I will play with the children." Qu Xiuzhen rolled her eyes, and then went to play with Feng Yue in the room.

Wang Gang invited Ma Shouchang to the living room, and Zheng Juan just made tea.

After sitting down, Ma Shouchang said mysteriously:
"I have good news for you, Bright Sword can be published."

Wang Gang was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized.

"Old Ma, have you visited Jiangliao Publishing House?"

Bright Sword is a novel written by Wang Gang a few years ago. At that time, he was still working in Golden Land Magazine, so he sent the novel to Jiangliao Publishing House, his superior unit, to try to publish it.

As a result, Jiangliao Publishing House called back directly, saying that the subject matter of the novel was not good and they would not publish it.

Later, Shao Jingwen took the novel to Ma Shouchang to read, but Ma became addicted after reading it, and has been paying attention to the publication of the novel for several years.

Now that the chaos is over, Bright Sword can indeed be published.

"I met with the president of Jiangliao Publishing House before the Chinese New Year because of work. I accidentally chatted about Liangjian. I didn't expect President Wu to remember this book you wrote." Ma Shouchang took out a cigarette and wanted to light it, and then Remembering that there were children in the house, he put down the cigarette again.

"Why didn't Teacher Shao tell me?" Wang Gang asked strangely.

"Maybe the news hasn't reached him yet. People from the publishing house should come to talk to you in a few days. Remember to leave me ten copies of the first edition, and I'll give it to an old friend." Ma Shouchang said.

Wang Gang said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Ma, I know that if it weren't for you, Liangjian would never have been published so soon."

"I just mentioned it casually, I really didn't help you much." Ma Shouchang waved his hand and said, "But if you really want to thank me, write more good novels like Bright Sword, and don't write about martial arts."

Wang Gang smiled, but dared not agree.

"By the way, where did that kid Guangming go? I still want to play chess with him." Ma Shouchang looked around but couldn't find Zheng Guangming.

Wang Gang's heart moved, and he said, "Guangming accompanied Zheng Juan's mother back to Taiping Hutong, and Juan'er will go there in two days."

Ma Shouchang said with regret: "I have thought about the game of chess I played with Guangming for a long time, and I plan to avenge my shame."
