Chapter 198 Shura Field

Last time I thought my wife was pregnant, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

"Okay, why are you so resentful? I didn't agree with Sister Tao's suggestion. There is no rush to have a baby, and there are advantages to having it later. Once the baby is really born, you will know how difficult it is to raise it." Li Xia coaxed in a gentle voice.

"It's okay, I'll take care of it. When Old Hu's daughter is born, I will learn how to take care of a child." Gu Weicheng had already planned for this. He had never taken care of a child, but he was able and willing to learn.

After his wife gives birth to a daughter, he will make sure she takes good care of her.

Li Xia looked at Gu Weicheng's serious expression and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll wait for you to be my nanny when the time comes."

"Daddy?" Gu Weicheng was surprised by the word. He looked down at himself. He couldn't breastfeed. He said with a complicated expression, "Wife, I can do other things, but breastfeeding depends on you..."

After saying that, he glanced at Li Xia's chest again. Well, his wife had good capital, which he had personally certified. If she gave birth to a daughter in the future, she would definitely have enough food.

Li Xia was stunned when she saw Gu Weicheng staring at her chest. Even though they were an old couple, she couldn't help but blush.

She rolled her eyes at him and said, "That's not what I meant by 'nanny'!"

At night, Gu Weicheng reached out and unbuttoned Li Xia's clothes.

Moreover, Li Xia felt that Gu Weicheng worked particularly hard tonight, as if he was expressing something.

Li Xia's body rose and fell in the tossing and turning, and in the end she curled up into a ball with her face flushed.

She held Gu Weicheng's firm waist with both hands and breathed heavily. It took her several minutes to slowly calm down from the intense feeling.

Gu Weicheng leaned over, kissed her face, and asked in her ear: "Wife, can I do it?"

The breath sprayed on her ears, making her feel tingling and numb.

Li Xia: “…”

Seeing that Li Xia didn't say anything, Gu Weicheng turned her over, and scared Li Xia so much that she quickly said, "Okay, very good!"

What kind of bastard is this? He even uses threats and inducements, bah!

After finishing, Gu Weicheng immediately filled warm water for Li Xia to clean up. This was a habit he had developed over time. At first, Li Xia was a little embarrassed, but after doing it many times, she let him do it. After seeing every part of an old couple, what else was there?

After cleaning, Gu Weicheng lay back on the bed, holding Li Xia in his arms and sleeping with a very satisfied look on his face.

The next day, Qiao Ran called the army's communications department. The communicator found Li Xia and asked her to come over to answer the phone.

"The telegram didn't explain it clearly, and the letter was too slow. It would take about half a month for you to receive it, so I called you directly to tell you. Recently, a publishing house contacted our newspaper and said they wanted to publish Zhaodi. I told them that the copyright of Zhaodi is in your hands, so they can just contact you directly."

"They?" Li Xia raised her eyebrows and immediately caught the key point in Qiao Ran's words.

Qiao Ran laughed and said that Li Xia was worthy of being a writer as she was very sensitive to words.

"Yes, a total of four publishing houses have contacted the newspaper, not 'them'? You can imagine how popular your novel 'Zhao Di' is. I guess the 'New Evening News' can also be published in more cities."

At this moment, someone else's voice came from the phone: "Team Leader Qiao, another publishing house just called and said they want to publish Zhao Di!"

After listening to this, Qiao Ran smiled and said, "Did you hear everything? There are five publishing houses in total now. You have to make good terms with them when the time comes. They are called publishing houses, but in fact they are all businessmen. They will definitely put their own interests first. After all, you should compare prices from three different stores, and the one with the highest price will win.

There is nothing else to do, just pay more attention to the mail recently. Also, keep writing and remember to submit your manuscripts on time! "

Qiao Ran did not forget to urge Li Xia to submit the manuscript at the very end. Li Xia could not help but laugh and complain: "Qiao Ran, don't you feel guilty for saying this? When have I ever failed to submit the manuscript on time? I even updated on time during the Chinese New Year!"

Qiao Ran felt embarrassed by this. She smiled and said, "I know, I know. You are the most diligent author. I am just cheering you up. Come on, come on. I am still busy here, so I will hang up now. I look forward to our next meeting~"

After saying this, Qiao Ran immediately hung up the phone, probably because she was afraid that Li Xia would continue to "trouble her".

The reason was that Li Xia received a letter from her two days ago. In the letter, Qiao Ran "euphemistically" expressed that she had recently sent a letter to the newspaper saying that only two updates a week were too little, and she wanted "Zhao Di" to be updated one more day, which would be 30,000 words a week.

Li Xia ruthlessly rejected him.

Although writing 30,000 words in a week is not impossible, Li Xia can do it most of the time.

But she still has a job. If she gets busy with work, like when she went to Wangjia Village for an interview last time and had no time to write for a few days, and she was sick and had no energy to write, she would definitely be overwhelmed.

Moreover, she knew too well that readers could never be satisfied. Even if she agreed to serialize three times a week, she would still continue to receive letters asking for a fourth serialization. So she simply refused from the beginning.

The day after Li Xia talked to Qiao Ran on the phone, the soldier on duty at the military district gate came to her and told her that someone was looking for her at the door and said it was from the publishing house.

So fast?

Li Xia really didn't expect that the other party did not choose to send her a letter, but came directly, and came so quickly.

"Okay, I understand." Li Xia said.

When we arrived at the gate of the military area, we found two people standing there waiting. One was a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit and a hat, and the other was taller and younger. The same thing about them was that they both had a briefcase under their arms.

Just when Li Xia was wondering whether these two people were from the same newspaper or two different newspapers

The tall and thin man's eyes lit up when he saw her. He immediately walked over with a smile and said, "Hello, you must be Comrade Li Xia! You look like a cultured person, and you exude an artistic atmosphere. I must have recognized you. I am Editor Zhao from Chunfeng Literature and Art Publishing House. Our publishing house wants to publish "Zhao Di". I wonder if you are willing?"

"Hello, Editor Zhao." Li Xia nodded at him.

"Editor Zhao, I think you said the same thing to the female comrade who came out before you just now." The middle-aged man reminded.

Li Xia: “?”

Editor Zhao didn't expect the other party to expose him in front of him. His face was embarrassed for a moment, but then he immediately returned to normal:

"Just now I was a little tired after sitting in the car for a long time and didn't react. I was a little dazed and saw the wrong person. Isn't that normal? Now that I have rested well, of course I won't make a mistake again. This person must be Comrade Li Xia!"

Seeing him say that, the middle-aged man said nothing more, but introduced himself to Li Xia: "Hello, Comrade Li, let me introduce myself first. My last name is Liu, and I am the editor-in-chief of Shuguang Publishing House. You can just call me Editor-in-Chief Liu.

Our Shuguang Publishing House has published many books, all of which sold very well! The book "Zhao Di" you wrote has sold very well. Our publishing house wants to publish "Zhao Di" and is here to discuss cooperation with you. "

Li Xia nodded: "Hello, Editor-in-Chief Liu."

At the same time, she was speechless in her heart. She originally thought that these publishing houses would send letters to her, but she didn't expect that they would come in person.

It would have been fine if they had come in person, but they bumped into each other.

The first Shura field in my lifetime was actually given to me by the editor of a publishing house.
