Chapter 82
Su Miao happily opened "Echo". In her previous life, she had read every issue during her four years in college. Two issues a month were not enough. Now she can read new ones!
She plans to buy all the recent and old issues and read them to her heart's content!
But... the more she looked at it, the more she felt something was wrong. It... was missing something!
She felt that compared to the ones she had read before, the articles in this book "Echo" were much more restrained. The stories in it were still exciting, but they did not have such strong tension.
Was it the times? Was such a melodramatic style of writing not yet in vogue? Or was it simply that the submissions received this time were rather mediocre?
In order to verify her guess, Su Miao went to the convenience store across the street and bought several recent copies of "Echo". While giving them to her, the old lady reminded her not to read too many extracurricular books and that the right thing to do was to focus on doing the exercises well.
Su Miao flipped through the magazine roughly and came to the conclusion that the predecessors were still too conservative and that shocking writing style had not really become popular!
Then... could she once again stand on the shoulders of giants and get a head start?
It's going to become popular anyway, so why not let her write it in advance? I heard that these days as long as the submission is successful, the royalties are quite good!
Su Miao began to recall the popular "Echo Body" in her mind and began to build an outline. She turned on the desk lamp, took out the letter paper and pen, and quickly wrote down a catchy title: "On the Day of Returning to My Parents' Home, My Husband Rolled into Bed with My Sister!"
OK, OK! I don't believe you don't want to read this story!
Su Miao wrote furiously, becoming more and more excited as he wrote. He even chuckled a few times when he came to the exciting parts. An hour later, a complete outline of the novel was completed.
After dinner she went back into her room and began to write the first draft while her ideas were flowing.
Su Yuanzheng and Su Yu were watching TV in the living room. When they went to the kitchen to boil water, they saw their daughter doing her homework seriously. They nodded with satisfaction and turned back to turn down the volume of the TV.
It would be fine if she didn't write, but once she did, it would be a disaster. As a veteran bookworm, she had read countless bloody and unorthodox stories, and now they were vying to pop out of her mind one after another!
Before she knew it, it was 9:30 in the evening. Su Yuanzheng's knock on the door interrupted her train of thought: "Miaomiao, don't study too late. Rest your eyes. Come out and have a bowl of kelp and mung beans. It's time to take a shower and go to bed."
Su Miao's thoughts hadn't completely escaped the melodramatic novel, and she was a little dazed for a moment. It wasn't until her father called her a second time that she came to her senses: "Okay, Dad."
She stretched her stiff fingers. Holding the pen for so long had left deep red marks on it. If she continued writing, she was afraid she would get cramps.
Her father handed her the cooled sugar water and said, "Miaomiao, I see that you and Ayu like to buy cold drinks. Do you want us to buy a refrigerator? I can freeze the desserts I cook in it."
"Yeah! Great! A refrigerator can keep desserts and drinks cold, and it can also store food! It's very convenient to use in the summer. But there's one more appliance I have to buy."
"Washing machine? No, it's just a few pieces of clothing, it's not tiring to wash them."
Now, except for Su Miao's underwear, which she washes when she takes a shower, all the other clothes in the house are washed by Su Yuanzheng or Su Yu. Su Miao feels that since there are convenient electrical appliances to use, this work can be completely saved.
"Dad, the invention of the washing machine is to make things more convenient for people and free their hands. Since we have the conditions, why not buy one? Isn't running the store every day tiring enough? It would be great to have the remaining time to rest."
Su Yuanzheng thought for a moment and said, "Okay! It's not something we can't afford anyway, and the house is big enough to accommodate everything. I'll go buy it the day after tomorrow!"
After eating dessert and taking a shower, Su Miao returned to her room and started writing again. She didn't turn off the lights and went to bed until Su Yuanzheng knocked on the door and told her to go to bed quickly.
In the darkness, Su Miao tossed and turned but couldn't fall asleep. The urge to write made her mind unusually clear, just like the feeling of reading a novel.
I knew it was impossible to finish it in one go, but I couldn't help but stay up late and watch it over and over again, as if I was addicted.
She quietly got up, drew the curtains in front of the desk, turned on the desk lamp and continued writing, not daring to make any noise even when turning the pages.
Even so, the light was still discovered by Su Yuanzheng who came out to relieve himself.
"Miao Miao, I can't continue reading, go to bed!"
Watching the light dim in the next second, Su Yuanzheng sighed. Having a daughter who loves studying too much can also be a headache.
The consequence of sleeping too late is that you won’t be able to get out of bed the next day. Fortunately, it’s still summer vacation, so I can still sleep in.
After waking up, she took out the meat buns her father had left for her from the small steamer and ate them while strolling to the front bunk.
At 11 a.m., as soon as the door opened, customers started coming in in twos and threes, and then more and more people came.
However, Sister Yingzi is very skillful and after a week of working together, she is able to cooperate well with Su Yuanzheng and Su Yu.
Su Yuanzheng, wearing a mask, cut the braised food while saying to his daughter, "Miaomiao, I don't need your help. Just look at what to eat for lunch. If you don't want porridge, Daddy will make you a bowl of noodles, or you can go out and buy something else to eat."
Su Miao shook her head and said, "I just ate two buns and I'm very full. I'll just have a bowl of mung bean porridge later. If you don't need my help, I'll go back to read."
"Hey! You read all day yesterday. Relax, watch some TV, or play with Jiayin."
"Sister Jiayin went swimming. Didn't you tell me not to go swimming alone? You just go about your business and don't worry about me." After saying that, she ran away.
The neighbors all laughed when they saw this: "Xiao Su, your daughter is so well-behaved. Unlike my naughty monkey, who won't even open the book unless he is hit by a stick."
"Exactly. School is about to start in half a month. I just started writing my first essay yesterday. I want to see how he's going to get it done for me."
…
Su Yuanzheng shook his head. "My daughter loves reading too much, which is not good. She has already scored full marks on the test, but she is still studying so hard. I'm really worried that her eyes will be damaged. How about letting your child take her out to play when she has time?"
…
The neighbors looked at him speechlessly. Is this even human language?
I got full marks on all the tests!!! Full marks!!!
If they had not heard the letter earlier that Su Miao really had been admitted to No. 1 Middle School with full marks and ranked first in Ning County, they would have thought that Su Yuanzheng was bragging.
Alas! It turns out that human joys and sorrows are different. Which temple of the Goddess of Childbirth did you pray for such a clever, beautiful and filial daughter?
They are willing to offer 100 kilograms of incense oil!!!
