Chapter 96 The comic book is popular in the family courtyard

Once the two children spread the news that Li Jian is the original form of Zhui Feng in the comic book, many children knew about it.

The comic book in Sun Xiangdong's hand became a hot commodity among the children.

Some of them could not be borrowed, so they begged their parents to buy it for them.

But when they arrived at Xinhua Bookstore, they found that the comic book of "The Loyal Dog" had been sold out.

The salesperson saw more people asking than before, and could only say, "When the comic book was sold out before, we had already contacted the publisher to add more goods. It will take time for them to reprint. You can't keep talking about it, but it will still be gone."

The children could only follow their parents to come with excitement and leave in disappointment.

At this time, someone heard that the author Shi Tingyu still had books in his hands, so he ran over to buy from Shi Tingyu.

When Shi Tingyu saw a few women standing at the door of her house after school, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

Today at school, many teachers asked her if she had any comic books.

At that time, everyone in the office was there, and there were also teachers from other offices, so she could only find an excuse to refuse.

She just said that the publishing house had sent them before, and then she sent them back to her hometown to give to relatives. Otherwise

, it would be a problem whether to give them to someone or not.

A group of teachers were very disappointed, including Liu Xiaohong. She whispered to Shi Tingyu, "Teacher Shi, you don't know, my daughter Yue is clamoring for your comic book and it's almost giving me a headache. The last time I took her to Xinhua Bookstore, they were all sold out."

The girl Yue she was talking about was her nine-year-old daughter Chen Yue, who was in the second grade. She

was also Shi Tingyu's student.

Shi Tingyu could only smile awkwardly, "I don't know the specific situation."

When the school bell rang, Shi Tingyu felt that he was finally free, but he didn't expect to see those people blocking his door when he arrived at his home.

Seeing Shi Tingyu coming, several female comrades stepped forward with smiles on their faces and said, "Oh, Teacher Shi, school is over. You have worked so hard."

Seeing this, several others followed suit.

"Yes, children nowadays are very naughty, and it's not easy to be a teacher."

"Teacher Shi, you've worked hard."

"Teacher Shi, you should pay more attention to rest in the future."

This considerate and familiar greeting aroused Shi Tingyu's social anxiety, which had not occurred for a long time because she was used to living in the family compound.

She smiled awkwardly and greeted several people, and asked, "Are

you looking for me for something, sisters-in-law?" Everyone looked at each other, and the first person who spoke said, "Nothing else, I just want to ask if Teacher Shi has any comic books? Our children like to read them. If you have any, can you sell them to us?"

Those who can come here to buy comic books are basically those who have better family conditions and spoil their children.

Since he had already rejected the teacher at the school, Shi Tingyu would not sell the books to anyone else, so he used the same words as before.

The sisters-in-law looked at each other, not knowing whether what Shi Tingyu said was true or not.

Shi Tingyu was still very good at observing people, and seeing that the other party was doubtful, he said bluntly: "Sisters-in-law, the books are really gone. Those are sample books sent to me for free by the publishing house. If I can sell them for some money, I will not be stupid enough to keep them and let them gather dust."

Everyone thought it made sense.

If it were them, they would at most keep one copy as a souvenir, and they would not keep any that could be sold.

Seeing that there were no books to buy, the sisters-in-law said goodbye.

But when they left, they all looked sad, and the children at home would be noisy.

That night, when Lu Weiguo came back, he also talked about this with Shi Tingyu.

He said, "Wife, today someone kept asking me if there were any comic books at home."

Shi Tingyu looked nervous, "You won't tell anyone, will you?"

If he really told anyone, he would be exposed.

She didn't expect that these parents would go this far for their children. It was not enough for the sisters-in-law to ask her, but they actually asked Lu Weiguo.

Seeing her nervous look, Lu Weiguo thankfully said, "Except for the one we bought at Xinhua Bookstore, which I gave to Feng Wei, I said I didn't know anything else."

In fact, when Feng Wei came to ask him for it, he felt strange.

The other party was not short of money, and it was not that he could not afford the comic book for 50 cents, but it was a bit strange to ask him for it now.

After asking, he found out that the Xinhua Bookstore had sold out, and the children at home wanted to read it, but he had been pestering him.

Lu Weiguo gave him the book.

When the second person came to ask him if he had the comic book at home, he became alert.

He said directly that he didn't know, and only said that the matter of the book was caused by his wife.

Then he sent away a few people.

"Will Master Feng not let it slip?" Shi Tingyu was a little worried.

Lu Weiguo was very confident, "Don't worry, old Feng is smart, and he is very good at observing people's words and expressions. According to what you said, many people in the family compound didn't buy the book, and he will definitely not tell anyone."

Now, Shi Tingyu was relieved.

Lu Weiguo looked at his wife and said with emotion: "My wife is famous now."

Shi Tingyu: "I am also famous."

Lu Weiguo went forward and hugged her, saying with a smile: "It is true that my wife's beauty is unmatched. She caused a sensation when she first arrived at the family compound."

Shi Tingyu rolled her eyes at him and thought to herself that the past was unbearable to look back on.

Thinking about what was discussed by the people in the family compound, she still wants to dig her toes into the ground when she thinks about it now.

At that time, she was reluctant to go out. When she walked in front of people, she always felt that they were talking about her. Don't

mention how uncomfortable it was.

Lu Weiguo also knew his wife's temper, so he didn't continue the topic. He washed his hands and cooked with his wife.

The next morning, when Shi Tingyu was having dinner with Lu Weiguo, the radio started to ring.

The postman came to deliver letters and packages.

When Shi Tingyu heard her name, she was about to put down her bowl and go out, but was stopped by Lu Weiguo.

He picked up the bowl and drank the porridge in a few gulps, then said, "You continue eating, I'll go get it."

Then he went to the room to get Shi Tingyu's seal and ID and went out.

If it was a letter, it would be fine, but if it was a package, these things would be needed.

When Lu Weiguo arrived at the door, the guard at the door saluted Lu Weiguo.

The other sisters-in-law also greeted Lu Weiguo when they saw him.

Since the comic book incident, they now try their best to overcome their fear when they see Lu Weiguo and start to greet him.

For the sake of the children, they are not afraid.

Lu Weiguo was a little surprised, but he still nodded to them.

But that face no longer had the gentleness that he had in front of his own wife.

Lu Weiguo reported Shi Tingyu's name, and the postman found a letter and handed it to him, "Comrade, this is a letter from Comrade Shi Tingyu."

Lu Weiguo saw that it was from Jingshi Fine Arts Publishing House, so he didn't read it much. He signed and stamped it and took it away.

After he left, several sisters-in-law couldn't help but sigh together.

"Xiao Lu is so hardworking, unlike my son, who doesn't even raise his eyes when he takes down the package."

"My son is the same, he is like a master at home."

"Who said it wasn't? I have to talk to my son when I go back and let him learn from Xiao Lu."
