On the first day of July, Li Yu finally finished writing half of the piece of paper she bought from the bookstore last time.
She had only written about a quarter of the plot, and she planned to go to the town bookstore tomorrow to see the owner and submit it to him.
The last time I bought something for Lin He, I met the owner of Yunshang Bookstore. He seemed like a nice guy, although a bit cunning, but since it was a business, Li Yu could understand.
When Lin Hai was about to set up his stall after breakfast early in the morning, he was surprised to see Li Yu wanted to join him.
His mother hasn't left the room for several days except to eat and go to the toilet.
I just told them not to disturb her for no reason. They only knew that my mother was writing something, but they didn't know the details.
Unexpectedly, he was about to go out today, so Lin Hai asked Li Yu: "Have you finished writing your work? Do you need anything when you go to town? I'll buy it for you when I get back. You can continue with your work."
"I haven't finished writing it yet. I came out for a walk today to change my mind. I have something to do in the bookstore." Li Yu answered him.
Everyone was smart enough not to ask anything. After all, apart from knowing a few words, they really didn't have much knowledge.
They all agreed that what their mother wrote must be profound and they themselves did not understand it.
When they arrived in town, Lin Jiang asked Li Yu, "Do you want us to take you there?"
Li Yu disagreed: "Hurry up and go to the stall. Your mother is such a grown-up, are you still afraid of getting lost?"
Seeing that their mother refused, the few people did not force her and went to set up the stall. Setting up the stall could not be delayed.
Li Yu is now familiar with the town, after all, she has been here many times.
When we got to the bookstore, the clerk and the owner were both there. The clerk was looking for a book for a customer, and the owner was sitting in a rocking chair at the front desk, reading a storybook while rocking.
Seeing this scene, Li Yu knew that this boss was a good storyteller. Last time, he saw so many kinds of storybooks on the second floor, so Li Yu had some guesses.
After all, in this era, people who read storybooks are regarded as playthings and a waste of time.
Of course, other bookstores also sell them. Most bookstores just set aside a corner to sell storybooks. After all, they make money there.
But for a bookstore like Yunshang Bookstore, which has a second floor dedicated to storytelling and miscellaneous books, it can be imagined that the owner is very fond of storytelling.
Originally, Li Yu had only guessed, but this time when he saw his boss leisurely reading the storybook, he knew that his guess was right.
When Li Yu walked in, the boss was engrossed in the storybook in his hand and didn't even look at her.
The boy over there finished helping someone find a book and came over to her and said, "Auntie, are you buying anything? What do you want? Just tell me and I'll find it for you."
"I'm not buying anything. I'm looking for your boss." Li Yu said.
Although the waiter was puzzled, he didn't ask any questions. He just walked up to the counter and yelled, "Boss, stop looking. Someone's looking for you."
The chubby boss finally looked up from his book at Li Yu. "Looking for me? You're looking for me? I don't know you," he said.
Li Yu was not embarrassed at all. He just smiled and said, "I heard that you are collecting storybooks here, so I brought one here today for you to read."
Li Yu didn't finish the story this time. She only read the first twenty chapters, just when the plot reached its climax. That's when the protagonist, the God of Cooking, regained his memories of his past life.
As he said that, he handed over a few pieces of paper.
The boss didn't read the storybook first, but looked at Li Yu. "Sister-in-law, did you write this yourself?"
"It's not me, it's a relative of mine. I'm here to help." Li Yu answered him.
"You don't have to read it now. You can read it when you have time. If you think it can be published, just tell the roujiamo stall at the morning market. If it is not usable, you can throw it away. Sorry for the trouble. I'll be leaving first." Li Yu continued.
After saying this, Li Yu walked out without caring whether the boss agreed or not.
To be honest, she is still very confident in her ability to write storybooks. In her previous life, she made her fortune by writing novels.
She believed that the boss would be curious and go to see it. Li Yu guessed that the boss would go to the breakfast stall to find her in a while.
She guessed correctly. The boss was stunned by Li Yu's words. Before he could say whether he agreed or not, the man left, leaving behind the few crumpled papers she brought in front of him.
If Li Yu knew what he was thinking, he would definitely roll his eyes and complain.
Is it that I want to use this crumpled paper? Is it that your good paper is too expensive for me to buy?
After Li Yu put on this show, the boss couldn't tell whether she was too confident or not confident enough about her work, but she successfully aroused his curiosity, and he really wanted to take a look.
Fortunately, Li Yu studied language and literature in college, because she was required to write calligraphy in class.
If it were any other major, she estimated that traditional Chinese characters and calligraphy would become her weaknesses, let alone writing storybooks.
The owner of the bookstore is named Chen Zongwen.
As soon as Chen Zongwen read Li Yu's book, he was attracted by the content. It's not that the writing style of the book is so good, but the storyline is so well written.
I really don’t know how to evaluate Boss Chen’s writing style.
The author wrote the entire article in vernacular Chinese, giving the impression of being uneducated.
But it’s really refreshing to read this way.
Li Yu certainly knew his own style, which was completely different from the current vernacular novels.
But she doesn't plan to change.
Is writing a storybook the same as writing an article? Do I have to spend a lot of time studying the meaning of a sentence in a storybook?
Tired!
Her main feature is straightforwardness.
