Before her rebirth, Shen Xuewei was over thirty years old. After seven years of estrangement from her family and many years of hard work, she finally had her own small home.
After her rebirth...
Chapter 218 Dream Weaving Book Gallery
Grandpa Chen's good mood was instantly ruined when he saw Chen Fangqiu, who was asking him for money with his palm up, looking like he was the most powerful person in the world.
He slapped Chen Fangqiu's hand hard and cursed, "Money, money, money! All you do all day is ask your family for money. You never go out and find work!"
"I have no money, and even if I did, I wouldn't give it to you. If you're not going out to work, then stay home obediently and stop causing trouble all the time!"
He put the money away and glared at Chen Fangqiu again.
Not wanting to see him at home, she simply picked up a machete and went out to chop wood.
Chen Fangqiu lowered her eyes and suddenly looked at Shen Xuewei, who was sneaking upstairs.
"where are you going?"
Shen Xuewei gave a dry laugh, "Ah, Uncle, I just went upstairs to see if Auntie has finished tidying up."
Chen Fangqiu slowly walked over and extended his hand to her.
"Give it to me."
Shen Xuewei looked at the hundred yuan in her hand, paused for a moment, and then handed it to Chen Fangqiu.
She was magnanimous and didn't hold it against him. She gave him the hundred yuan, and that was that. She wasn't short of a hundred yuan.
A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle; it's best to stay away from Chen Fangqiu.
After receiving the money, Chen Fangqiu gave a satisfied "hmm" and turned to go back to his room.
The moment he closed the door, Shen Xuewei quickly rushed upstairs to the second floor, urging Chen Fanglan to leave immediately.
Chen Fanglan hadn't been home for a while and wanted to stay at home for one night.
She shook off Shen Xuewei's hand and rolled her eyes at her. "What's the rush? I just got back today and haven't spent much time with your grandparents. I'd like to go back to the county tomorrow."
Shen Xuewei pouted her lips and said, "My uncle just came back. He asked my grandfather for money, but my grandfather didn't give it to him. Instead, he took the hundred yuan that my grandfather gave me."
"Auntie, if you don't leave now, your uncle will come to borrow money from you soon."
Still in debt, Chen Fanglan can't stand hearing anyone ask her for money, not even her own brother.
Upon hearing Shen Xuewei's words, she jumped up instantly and grabbed her bag.
"Go, pack your things, we're going back to the county now."
Seeing her impatient look, Shen Xuewei teased, "Auntie, won't you sit down for a bit longer?"
Chen Fanglan declared resolutely, "I won't sit here; making money is the priority."
Recently, the store introduced several Thermage machines, which cost her all the money she had earned from the beauty salon. She has only managed to pay off a few tens of thousands of yuan of debts she owes to her friends, and there is still a lot left to pay.
Fortunately, the beauty salon's business has been getting better and better lately.
Although it's impossible to pay off all the debts this year, at least most of them can be paid off.
The pressure will be less next year.
Shen Xuewei turned around and went back to her room, picked up the backpack she had prepared, and left the Chen family with Chen Fanglan.
Once back in the county, Chen Fanglan called home to tell her maternal grandparents that they had already returned.
Shen Xuewei has now graduated from junior high school, and her high school entrance exam results have been released.
The elderly couple didn't scold Chen Fanglan like before; they just said something in a low voice.
"Okay, then let Weiwei have a good summer vacation at your place and relax."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Fanglan muttered in puzzlement, "Huh? Your grandparents have changed their minds?"
Shen Xuewei didn't care whether her grandparents had changed their ways or not. All she knew was that for the next two months, she would have all the time to herself and could arrange it as she pleased. She wouldn't have to read those books that made her dizzy anymore.
After finishing her meal, Chen Fanglan went out shopping with her friends.
Shen Xuewei didn't go with them. After cleaning up the dishes, she sat down in front of the computer.
The first thing to do, of course, is to see how many points the stock price has risen today.
Upon seeing the vibrant red scene, he immediately smiled, his eyes crinkling into crescents.
She calmed down and began to plan her new book for the summer.
While thinking about this, I opened the webpage and logged into the author backend of the Dream Library.
In recent months, as more and more authors have joined Dream Book Gallery and brought their new books, the library of Dream Book Gallery has become richer.
Realizing the time was right, Dream Gallery started advertising like crazy a few days ago, both online and offline.
Online platforms include forums and online communities, as well as pop-up ads; offline, they collaborate with bookstores to display promotional leaflets.
They even targeted internet cafes, setting their browser homepage to a novel website and placing shortcuts on their desktops.
Authors recruited by Dreamweaver Book Gallery already have a certain number of readers.
With the added impact of extensive advertising, more and more people are becoming aware of the existence of a novel website called Dream Gallery.
In recent days, the number of visitors to the novel website has almost exploded.
To retain these people at Dream Gallery, Dream Gallery launched a series of activities.
Register now to receive tons of free chapters and book coins; the first half of popular novels is fully available.
By consistently reading, checking in, and commenting, you can earn book coins, and also have a chance to win autographed copies of popular novels, as well as digital products such as mobile phones, cameras, and computers.
In this way, many readers were retained, and the website gradually got on the right track.
Several days ago, upon learning that Shen Xuewei had finished her high school entrance exam, Yun Li immediately came to urge her to start a new book.
It's just that the middle school entrance exam results have been pending, which is why it's been delayed until now.
Shen Xuewei had barely sat down in her chair when Yun Li's message popped up again.
Shen Xuewei knew that she must be in a great hurry, otherwise she wouldn't have kept urging her.
She sent a message.
Become a Rich Woman Soon: Yes, yes, the new book is in preparation. I will send you the outline and the first few chapters of the new book for your review by tomorrow night at the latest.
On the other side, Yun Li felt relieved after receiving the message from Shen Xuewei.
After replying to Shen Xuewei with an "OK", she looked at the QQ page, clicked on Feng Xuemei's profile picture, and sent a "Are you there?" message in a very good mood.
Xuexue is a pretty girl: ?
Xuexue is a pretty girl: Speak quickly, I'm busy lately.
Yunli: It's nothing. I'm happy and I'm willing to do it. Is it any of your business?
Feng Xuemei narrowed her eyes, instinctively feeling that this guy was hiding something from her.
Xuexue is a pretty girl: I can't control you, but you'd better keep your door closed tonight, or I can't guarantee I won't suddenly appear and mess with you.
After reading her message, Yun Li ignored her.
I just lock the front door as soon as I get home from get off work.
Shen Xuewei stared at the blank document, pondering what to write.
Upon arriving at the new website, she wanted to innovate upon the existing foundation.
Because of her two consecutive domineering CEO novels, the market response was generally better than her previous works.
Although the third book has not been officially serialized yet, its performance is not expected to be much worse than the first two.
Therefore, Yun Li had already made the request to her several days ago.
Her first new book at Dreamweaver Bookstore is a long romance novel in the domineering CEO genre.
This wasn't difficult for Shen Xuewei, but this time she wanted to add some new elements and write something different.
After sitting in front of the computer for nearly ten minutes, she finally had an inspiration.
