Chapter 69, page after page
The group of people who had been laughing happily just moments before suddenly realized something was wrong and tried to run away, but it was too late.
Shen Xuewei led Teacher Yan, whose face was dark and gloomy, in.
The group hunched their shoulders, remaining as quiet as chicks, not daring to make a sound for fear of being noticed by Teacher Yan.
What you fear most is exactly what happens.
Shen Xuewei pointed at them.
"Teacher, they were the ones who laughed at me just now, and they tripped me, but I didn't see exactly which one tripped me. But it really hurt when I tripped..."
She tearfully recounted her story.
The boys, heads bowed and still somewhat resentful, muttered under their breath, "Crybaby, tattletale."
Shen Xuewei heard it, and Teacher Yan, with her keen ears, also heard it, and her expression immediately turned even worse.
Teacher Yan looked at the other students in the class, "Did any of you see Chen trip over just now? Did you see clearly who it was?"
Little Firecracker Ye Meiling was the first to point it out: "Teacher, I saw it. Wu Jinming tripped him. When I looked over, his leg was stretched out really long!"
The other students in the class nodded in agreement.
Teacher Yan snapped, "Wu Jinming, come to my office right now!"
Wu Jinming's face turned ashen. Just as the people next to him were about to breathe a sigh of relief, they heard Teacher Yan call on them.
"And you guys, come to my office with him too."
The group of people, heads hanging low, followed him to his office.
After they left, amidst the comforting words of her friends, Shen Xuewei wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and handed out the homework books.
She paused, then nudged the girl who had been crying and slumped over the table.
The girl looked up at her, puzzled.
Shen Xuewei whispered a comforting word: "These are all normal developmental phenomena. You don't need to pay attention to what they say. Just ignore them."
She handed out all the homework books and returned to her seat.
They say hurtful things and then don't take them seriously, or even forget about them in the blink of an eye.
However, the negative impact on girls may follow them for a lifetime.
The girl sitting in the back row stared at her back in a daze for a while, and finally smiled, her previously hunched shoulders relaxing a bit.
Shen Xuewei's studies went very smoothly, requiring little effort from her.
She devoted most of her energy to the world of the novel she was creating.
She doesn't write novels quickly. Because she needs to write them down in a notebook first, it takes her about a month to write a novel of 70,000 to 80,000 words.
If the speed is slower, it could even take more than a month.
The royalty rate for her novels is still 50 yuan per thousand words.
That is, I earn about three thousand yuan a month after tax.
Three thousand yuan may not sound like much, but at this time, it's quite a lot.
After she obtained a household registration and was no longer an unregistered resident, she stopped using her maternal grandmother's name to sign contracts with magazines and novels, and instead used her own name, having them deposit the royalties into her bank account.
At this age, minors can sign contracts with magazines to write novels, but a guardian's signature is required when signing the contract.
She slipped the contract inside the exam paper and had her grandmother sign it, successfully getting away with it.
Meanwhile, the editor on the other side was still shocked by Shen Xuewei's age when he saw her age information on the contract, even though he was prepared.
I had considered that the other person might be a minor, but I never imagined they would be this young!
From then on, she would try to be gentler when chatting with Shen Xuewei on QQ, so as not to hurt the child's young heart.
In four months, Shen Xuewei submitted only three short stories and novellas.
The payment for the manuscript was deposited into her bank account, but she still hasn't been able to see which page of the magazine the novel was published on.
Mingda Town is a remote town, and for the time being, there is only one place in town that sells these novels and magazines.
The magazine she submitted her work to was a shop in town, and the latest issue was even from last year.
Editor Tangtang learned about this incident from Shen Xuewei during a casual chat.
With a wave of her hand, she sent Shen Xuewei several of the latest magazines.
Shen Xuewei brought these magazines home, flipped through them once, and then Chen Fanglan, who had returned home, snatched them away.
“You’re too young to read novels like this. Here, I’ll keep it with you for now and return it to you when you’re older.”
Shen Xuewei remained silent. Whose novel is this that they've collected to read when they grow up?
At that time, will she even need to look at it?
Chen Fanglan received several novels and magazines from her and took them back to her room.
The beauty salon recently gave her a few days off, which is a rare opportunity for her to stay at home for so long, except for the Spring Festival and National Day holidays.
When she discovered that Shen Xuewei was reading novels, she didn't complain to Chen Wai-gao, thinking that if she stopped her, Shen Xuewei would settle down.
What if Shen Xuewei gets scolded if this is brought up in front of Grandpa Chen and Grandma Xi?
She wasn't interested in these things before, and just casually flipped through a page.
After reading for a while, I turned the page again...
The next day, she came out of the room with dark circles under her eyes, and the people in the room couldn't help but take a second look.
Grandma Xi asked, "You're in your room all night, why do you have such big dark circles under your eyes?"
Chen Fanglan yawned and said casually, "Oh dear, I couldn't sleep, so I stayed up all night."
Grandma Xi muttered a couple of suspicious words, but seeing that it was almost time to go to the fields, she put the matter out of her mind, picked up her hoe, and went to work in the fields.
After Chen Fanglan brushed her teeth and washed her face, she was left alone at home.
She drank a bowl of porridge, and when she returned to her room, she couldn't help but pick up those magazines and novels and read them over and over again, especially the ones that interested her the most.
However, after looking around, I couldn't find the ending I wanted to see, and I couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Shen Xuewei was herding cattle on the back hill when she leaned against a tree and studied English on her learning machine for a while.
Wu Yuhong also drove the sheep over and sat down next to her to study.
Around noon, she put away her learning machine, cut some pig feed nearby, and then led the cow home.
After returning home, she scooped water from the water tank to wash her hands, and then prepared to start a fire to cook.
Upon seeing this, Chen Fanglan, who had been waiting for her to return, quickly took the pot from her hands, washed the rice, placed the pot on the iron mountain stand, and started a fire to cook it.
Seeing her so enthusiastic, Shen Xuewei's alarm bells went off.
She looked up at the sky; the sky outside was clear, and the sun hadn't risen in the west.
Her aunt is really not a diligent person at home.
If you don't ask her to do any work, she can be completely immobile for a whole day.
Such attentiveness must be a trap.
Her eyes darted around, and she made a move to scoop out the pig feed from the other large pot, intending to cook a new one.
Just as Chen Fanglan was about to ask her something, she saw this and quickly took the work from her hands.
"Oh dear, you're so young, how can you do so much work? Come on, let your aunt do it."
She pressed Shen Xuewei down onto a stool next to her, and then busied herself with chores.
When she finally felt it was about time, she pulled up a chair and sat down next to Shen Xuewei.
