It was already late when we returned to the base.
Shen Congji asked her why she came back just now, and Liang Su mentioned the publishing house matter to him.
"Not only did they plagiarize, they also tried to squeeze my share of the profits. I was so angry that I didn't stop cooperating with them."
Shen Congji pulled her into his arms and patted her back gently.
"You're wronged. I'll find you another publishing house."
Liang Su shook his head and said, "I've found one myself. It's Sister Yufeng's night school teacher, Yang Jianxiao."
"A man?"
Liang Su raised his eyebrows and tilted his head.
"What's wrong with men? Can't I cooperate with men?"
Shen Congji asked, "Why are you talking to him so late?"
Liang Su glared at him, "I went to many places, and I talked to him there."
She walked inside, saying to him, "Teacher Yang Jianxiao's father used to run a publishing house, but it was later nationalized. Their publishing house is now the Yang County Publishing House. He wanted to start another one, and I couldn't bear it, so I teamed up with him."
Gu Xia was slightly surprised when she heard the name "Yang Jianxiao".
"Yang Jianxiao? He used to be in Yang County."
Liang Su asked, "Aunt Gu, do you know him too?"
"I know him. I helped him once before. He's a very decent man. Although his family owns a publishing house, he didn't work there at first. Instead, he was an apprentice in a tailor shop."
He was still young at that time. Later, for some unknown reason, he gave up his dream of becoming a tailor and went to work in a publishing house as arranged by his family.
Not long after, he was kicked out of the publishing house again. At that time, he was notorious, and Gu Xia helped him.
But we never saw each other again after that, and it turns out he was here.
"I told you, he looks like a man with a story."
Gu Xia chuckled, thinking that what she said was cute.
"Look at me then, do I have a story?"
Liang Su looked at her seriously, shook his head and said, "You look like you're in your twenties. How can you tell that you have any sense of story?"
Gu Xia smiled even more happily, and as she smiled, she thought of her daughter.
It would be nice if Song Song was around.
…
The next day, Wang Hongyue went to Liang Su in person.
He said he came to see her, but his eyes lingered on Gu Xia.
This made Gu Xia very uncomfortable.
Soon, the person she wanted to introduce to Liang Su came over.
"This is Ms. Zhuang Xuefan, the head of the Organization Department of the Municipal Women's Federation, and this is Liang Su."
Liang Su remembered that it was thanks to Minister Zhuang that the Ministry of Education took the last physiological knowledge picture book issue seriously.
"Hello, Minister Zhuang, I'm Liang Su."
Zhuang Xuefan was simple and low-key, with a humble attitude. He smiled and said to her, "Don't mind me coming here so rashly."
Liang Su smiled and said, "How could that be? I'm so happy that you're here. You must stay for lunch."
Zhuang Xuefan glared at Wang Hongyue, "When you mentioned it to me before, you never mentioned that Liang Su was also a great beauty."
Wang Hongyue laughed a few times and said, "If she wasn't beautiful, how could she have locked Ah Ji up so tightly?"
As for Shen Congji's attitude towards Liang Su, does he dare to say that he is not attracted by Liang Su's appearance?
Such a beautiful lesbian, no matter how delicate she is, there will always be someone who wants to marry her.
Zhuang Xuefan sat down before saying, "I came here this time because of the picture book. After all, you are the creator, and I need your authorization to publish it."
Liang Su readily agreed: "I agree to publish it."
"Because it's semi-charitable, the profit sharing..."
"No need to share. If there is any profit, please donate it to the welfare home for me." Liang Su said with a smile.
Zhuang Xuefan looked at Wang Hongyun, unable to hide his surprise.
"You never told me that Liang Su was such a conscious female comrade."
Liang Su accepted her compliment and pointed at Gu Xia who was reading a newspaper nearby.
"I learned this from Aunt Gu. She has sponsored many children in welfare homes and is a true philanthropist."
Gu Xia's eyebrows moved slightly, and he said in a gentle voice: "Just flatter me."
"I'm not flattering you, I'm just telling the truth." Liang Su blinked smartly.
Zhuang Xuefan then looked at Gu Xia seriously. He had heard Wang Hongyue and Dai Shan mention her before. Now that he looked at her, he saw that she looked exactly like the photo in Chu Jingcong's wallet.
She felt that they were not similar, but the same person.
Not everyone can possess this kind of extraordinary temperament.
After having dinner at Liang Su's house, Zhuang Xuefan went to Wang Hongyue's house to sit for a while.
Zhuang Xuefan said: "Liang Su is so aware, we should also reward him."
"Why don't you just send me a banner later?"
Zhuang Xuefan said dissatisfiedly: "Banner is the most useless thing. It's better to just give money."
Wang Hongyue laughed and said, "Can you just give me the money?"
We are all people in the system, and everyone knows that it is difficult to apply for this money.
Zhuang Xuefan said, "I'll recommend Liang Su's other picture books to those schools and ask them to purchase them from the publishing houses."
In this way, Liang Su can also get a share, killing two birds with one stone.
"But I still have to present the banner. It's a testament to my honor."
"As you wish."
Zhuang Xuefan didn't stay at the base for too long and hurried home.
In the evening, Dai Shan returned home and mentioned Gu Xia.
"She looks just like Qiao Yu in the photo. After all these years, she hasn't aged at all."
You can't even tell her real age.
Dai Shan was thoughtful. The person he sent out had already received a reply and had indeed found out some things.
"Where is she?"
"It's right at the base. What a coincidence. Old Chu is not at the base during this period."
The two of them just missed each other perfectly.
Dai Shan said coldly, "I'm going to go over there tomorrow. Only after I talk to her can I confirm whether she is Qiao Yu."
"After all, it's Old Chu's business. Wouldn't it be a bad idea for us to go there rashly?" This was also the reason why Zhuang Xuefan didn't mention it today.
Dai Shan said, "Old Chu has suffered for her for so many years. I must help him get to the bottom of this."
Zhuang Xuefan said nothing more.
Dai Shan is a man of action. He said he would go and he went the next day.
When Liang Su saw him, he was surprised and walked out of the house.
Dai Shan said, "I'm here to see Ms. Gu Xia. I have some questions I want to clarify with her."
Liang Su glanced back and asked, "Shall we go inside and talk?"
Gu Xia waved his hand, "No need, let's talk about it here."
She expected Dai Shan to come.
He is good friends with Chu Jingcong, so he will definitely show up.
Liang Su came into the room and gave them some space to be alone.
Dai Shan spoke directly, without beating around the bush: "You are Qiao Yu."
Gu Xia curled the corners of his lips, "I already have the answer, why ask again?"
Dai Shan frowned, "Since you are still alive, why don't you go find Lao Chu? Do you know how long he has been looking for you all these years?"
His barely concealed complaints made Gu Xia feel that they were groundless.
Gu Xia sneered, "What does he want me to do?"
