1978: Female educated youth, don’t want an illiterate husband

Chapter 51: Too cruel to them? How can I say this? (Seeking follow-up reading

"Zaxido?"

Today, when they were praising The Horse Wrangler, they also mentioned Cha Jianying's article to Cheng Xuemin.

But when Cheng Xuemin turned to the manuscript, he found that Zha Jianying used a pen name, "Zaxiduo", which was not her real name.

"Hehe, your wife is such a smart person, how could my mother catch this loophole?! Xuemin, I was just teasing you, I already knew that Jianying used a pen name, they couldn't find out!"

Feng Jiayou glanced at the article and confirmed once again that Cha Jianying used the pen name "Zaxiduo", not to mention being proud.

"You are indeed a smart guy. It's up to you if you think it's okay. I don't care anyway!"

Cheng Xuemin shook his head, he was indeed too smart.

I just don’t know if her classmate Cha Jianying will act with her.

And if she did that, wouldn't she be exposing in front of her classmates that Lao Xu was her man and her lover?
"By the way, I promised Dening to give this novella to Yanjing Literature. She has also read the manuscript, so I can't break my promise!"

"I'll write another one and try to get the start tomorrow. You can show it to mom!"

Although his mother-in-law also said that the price was also the maximum of seven yuan per thousand words, he had already promised Zhang Dening today that the novella in his hand would be given to Yenching Literature. It was an agreement, and it would be difficult to go back on his word at the last minute, otherwise it would be unkind.

"Xuemin, do you have inspiration again? You can just say you have it as soon as you write it!"

Feng Jiayou nodded. Since she had agreed to Yanjing Literature, it would be difficult for her to switch to her mother's October.

But judging from her husband's tone, he wants to write another one for her mother?
So awesome?

Inspiration comes suddenly, and the manuscript can be written as soon as it is ready?

"As for inspiration... as long as you are kind enough, I can be kind enough too!"

"Wife, I'm helping you write this for mom, shouldn't we celebrate?"

The woman actually mentioned inspiration, so Cheng Xuemin had to mention where his inspiration came from!
"Celebrate, you big-headed ghost! Cheng Xuemin, your mind is full of nonsense, thinking about that thing all day long!"

Feng Jiayou was like a frightened bird. He jumped away and sat down, keeping a distance from Cheng Xuemin.

"What can such an excellent brain of mine contain? It must be full of essence!"

"Come on, wife, help me find some inspiration!"

"Megalomaniac, don't..."

……

In the end, they failed. Feng Jiayou is a very principled person. They had agreed that they could only celebrate after seeing the payment receipt. He really wouldn't let them take any backdoors!
In this case, Cheng Xuemin also told her that he would write the manuscript for his mother-in-law as soon as possible.

As long as she wrote it down, she would have to fulfill her promise and celebrate for him.

The woman also took a step back, okay!
Although it's not a bill for royalties, it's a manuscript I commissioned for her mother. Once she gets the manuscript, I'll pay her back and give it to her!

As a result, Cheng Xuemin was in an excited state while writing the manuscript the next morning.

In just three hours, Cheng Xuemin wrote tens of thousands of words. If he works harder in the afternoon, he will be able to finish this short story of nearly 20,000 words!

During lunch, Feng Jiayou invited Huang Beijia, Cha Jianying and others to come together. Is this a showdown?

Cheng Xuemin was ready to receive their worship.

"'The Shepherd' is really popular. All the copies of the movie were sold out at the distribution point outside our school!" Huang Beijia just sat down with his lunch box and exclaimed to Feng Jiayou and the others.

"It's not just our Yan University. Shuimu next door is the same, and Yan Normal University is even crazier. This author named Lao Xu is really famous!" Cha Jianying also sat over and said.

"Has the fire been stopped? It's only the first morning of the first day of publication, and the magazines sent to various parts of the country are still on the way! Just wait, it will be a nationwide hit in a few days!" Huang Beijia nodded in agreement.

"Then we have to write our reviews quickly and send them out as soon as possible!" Cha Jianying thought of everyone's braised pork and became anxious.

"We are still a little slow in writing. I heard that some people have finished their manuscripts overnight and have already sent them out!"

"Who is it? Do you have to be so exaggerated? "

Cheng Xuemin sat nearby and listened. Because he didn't pay much attention to the outside world, he didn't know that this issue of Yenching Literature was selling so well.

Then he looked at Feng Jiayou. He thought she would tell the two of them to formally introduce Cheng Xuemin as 'Lao Xu', the author of The Wrangler!
The 'Lao Xu' they kept praising was her man.

But what Cheng Xuemin didn't expect was that Feng Jiayou never mentioned it from beginning to end, which made him very puzzled!

He is already prepared!
After they finished eating and separated, Cheng Xuemin grabbed Feng Jiayou and asked, "Wife, didn't you want to ask Zha Jianying for an article? Why didn't you tell me just now?!" "I wanted to tell them just now, but I suddenly realized that it would be too cruel to tell them so!"

Feng Jiayou shook his head, with an expression and tone that showed he was very considerate of them.

"Too cruel to them? How do you say that?!"

Cheng Xuemin was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted. This woman is too narcissistic. What Huang Beijia and Cha Jianying said were so nice, she would not be willing to expose them, right?

"They are almost crazy, and they are all eager to write to you, 'Old Xu', and make pen pals with you! Can I tell them directly that the 'Old Xu' they are obsessed with is actually my lover Cheng Xuemin?"

"Can I tell them that the Shepherd was written by you, Xuemin? Are you the 'Lao Xu'?"

"Forget it, let's wait until we receive their letters in a while and then read them!"

Just as Cheng Xuemin saw through, Feng Jiayou was indeed getting too arrogant and wanted to hear more words of praise from the girls around her. The more beautiful their praises were, the better her man wrote, and the happier she felt.

This feeling is so great!
Moreover, she was indeed looking forward to receiving letters from Zha Jianying, Huang Beijia and others. If she confessed now, there would be nothing left!
"Not really?!"

"I'm almost done writing this manuscript. Should I give it to mom or not?!"

Cheng Xuemin clicked his tongue. Has it developed to this point?
“Give it to me!”

"Didn't the October issue just come out? The next issue is still two months away, we can talk to Jianying later!"

"And Xuemin, you can't do this! You can't just write nonsense just to celebrate! Even though you are Lao Xu from the Wrangler, if the manuscript is not of high quality, my mother will definitely ask you to revise it!"

Hearing that Cheng Xuemin was almost done writing, Feng Jiayou felt worried about the quality of the manuscript!
"Whether it's nonsense or not, you'll know when you read it when you get back! What I'm worried about now is whether my mother would dare to use this manuscript even if I give it to her!"

Cheng Xuemin said with a smile!

"Tsk! You underestimate your mother-in-law, don't you? Li Qingquan dares to make your headline, but your mother-in-law doesn't even dare to use it?!"

"No, Xuemin, what did you write to your mother-in-law this time?!"

……

No. 7 West Chang'an Avenue, Yenching Literature Headquarters, Cultural Bureau Compound.

"The response is so fast? We just officially launched it for one morning, and several universities in Yanjing have already sold out!?"

Today is the first day that this issue of Yenching Literature is published, and it is still on the way to mailing in many places.

But as soon as Li Qingquan came back from outside, Zhou Yanru told him that all the distribution points of several universities in Yenching were sold out!

The printing factory's editorial department was almost bombarded with calls this morning, all requesting more prints and additional stock.

Li Qingquan was stunned after hearing this!

He had thought that this issue might be popular, this issue of "The Horse Wrangler" would be popular, but he didn't expect the response to be so quick!

It's only the morning?
You know, at this point in time, magazines sent to all parts of the country may still be on the way.

If you want to get readers' response, it is impossible without ten days or half a month of fermentation!
But now it’s better!

There are several distribution points at Yenching University, and they were sold out in just one morning?
Do you have to be so exaggerated?!
"It's sold out! The first batch of restocking has been delivered! But if the math continues, I think we need to print more quickly, in case we need to restock from all over the country later!"

Zhou Yanru's face was full of excitement. They were going to be famous!

"We need to print more copies! Old Zhou, give the printing factory a call and ask them to print three more copies... maybe 50,000 more copies!"

Li Qingquan was equally excited and told Zhou Yanru to call the printing factory immediately and ask them to print an additional 50,000 copies.

"Add 50,000 copies? Isn't that too much, Lao Li?!"

It is necessary to print more copies, but Lao Li directly said to print 50,000 more copies. Isn’t that too exaggerated?

You have to know that the total number of copies printed for each issue of Yenching Literature is only 50,000. Mr. Li's addition doubles it. Isn't this a big step?
"Not much! Lao Zhou, go and call them!" Li Qingquan waved his hands, feeling that it was not much at all.

Now the book is so popular at Yenching University alone. When it is rolled out across the country later, he feels that printing 50,000 copies will not be enough!
"Old Li, aren't you calling over there now?" Zhou Yanru nodded, seeing that Li Qingquan had already picked up the phone, and couldn't help but ask.

"I called Lao Liu from October to ask him if he had watched this issue of The Shepherd!" Li Qingquan said with a grin.

"Old Li, you're not going too far, are you?"
