Chapter 22: Double Snatch
In addition to Liang Zongshan’s package, there were also mail packages from the newspaper and magazine yesterday.
Needless to say, the one from the newspaper was the first edition of her novel, as well as royalties and some tickets.
She didn’t expect the magazine to give her tickets. After reading the letter, she realized that it was a benefit for authors with good sales.
In that case, she accepted it.
Tickets are still needed now, otherwise it would be inconvenient to buy anything.
If you have money but no tickets, you can only go to the black market to buy something. Not to mention whether it is safe or not, the things there are very expensive.
She was just worrying about how to get some tickets, and when the double snatch came, she bought some meat and rice and flour to replenish the labor force at home, and now it was delivered to her door.
Thanks to the magazine!
After collecting the manuscript fee and various tickets, Cui Xue looked at the letter asking her to write more chapters, and suddenly she didn't think it was so unbearable.
However, after weighing her current work and the intensity of her writing, she still sent a letter to the newspaper, saying that her energy was limited and she might not be able to provide a stable supply of children's stories.
Attached is a children's story she wrote and some articles about parenting knowledge from later generations.
She is not a professional, she just wants to write something to make today's parents pay more attention to children.
Of course, it is not the time for family planning yet, and there are not so many parents with chicken babies. Basically, they have to practice small trumpets when the big one is useless.
She knows that she is insignificant and can't change anything, but she still wants to express her views, hoping to help some people.
Putting the reply letter to the newspaper aside, Cui Xue started writing the manuscript.
The magazine asked for more chapters, but the few manuscripts she had on hand were not enough. The next day, the sky cleared up after
the rain, and Cui Xiongnian and Liang Xiaoying looked much better. They were really worried that it would rain for a few days and delay the work in the fields. Cui Xue followed them out. She first went to the mailroom to mail the letter to the newspaper. It would not be too late for her to mail the letter to the magazine two days later. Then she went to the sheepfold to check if there was any water accumulation from yesterday's rain. Seeing that the sheepfold was relatively dry, she hurried the sheep out of the sheepfold. She lived a very regular life in the days that followed. It is worth mentioning that she spent several days thinking about her reply to Liang Zongshan. She was somewhat embarrassed. Although she had lived for more than 20 years in her previous life, she really had no experience in love. All her time was spent on making money, and this was her first time to fall in love. However, she had seen pigs run, and she generously admitted in the letter that she had a good impression of him, and asked him if he was willing to give it a try. Of course, she also mentioned that she had been to Daliang Village and met his mother, Xu. The whole letter was very different from Cui Xue's previous writing style, and she didn't know if Liang Zongshan would be surprised when he received the letter. She was a little worried, but it didn't stop her from sending the letter. It's a pity to stick your head out, and it's also a pity to shrink your head. After sending the letter, Cui Xue no longer felt nervous. Anyway, she had taken the initiative, and the rest depended on whether the two of them were destined to be together. Soon it was time for the double harvest. After this period of rest, Liu Ping's body was not bad, but she had severe morning sickness. Cui Xue said she would not let her work in the fields. "Sister-in-law, you are so irritated. The work in the fields is the heaviest right now. You are tired and can't eat. Your body can't stand it." When Liu Ping once again expressed her desire to work in the fields, Cui Xue couldn't help it and began to persuade her with a stern face. "I just want to share some of the work." Liu Ping said a little embarrassedly. "Why don't you let your sister-in-law break the corn?" Liang Xiaoying glanced at her and suggested. "She doesn't have to work too hard. She can break the corn every day. If she can't break it, she can just rest." "Yes, yes, yes, I can do some work." Liu Ping nodded repeatedly to affirm her mother-in-law's suggestion. With the two of them like this, it was hard for Cui Xue to talk, so she looked at her father, Cui Xiongnian. Seeing everyone looking at him, Cui Xiongnian came to his senses, coughed twice and said, "Then go to the cornfield. Xue'er will follow your sister-in-law. If you need anything, take your sister-in-law back to rest." "Okay!" Cui Xue agreed without hesitation. She was not afraid of looking down on her sister-in-law at all. After all, Liu Ping was still a little afraid of her sister-in-law, especially after she made money writing manuscripts, so she became more polite to her. Before she started to work, Cui Xue found some time to go to town and buy a lot of things and go home. Of course, I avoided people when I came back. Otherwise, if people saw me, I don’t know how the gossip would spread. When the horn of double robbery sounded, Cui Xue followed everyone to work in the fields. It was only at this time that we could appreciate the hard work of the working people. Working all day and surviving can really exhaust one. What shocked her even more was that she, a healthy young person, could not work as efficiently as Liu Ping, a pregnant woman. After working all day, she returned home doubting her life. Without thinking too much, she went into the kitchen to prepare food. No one came back at noon. They were working in the fields in a hurry. All they ate was some mixed grain porridge with salted vegetables. They were already hungry. "Xue'er? What are you doing?" Liang Xiaoying changed her clothes and walked into the kitchen. She was a little surprised to see Cui Xue already there. "Mom, let me make dinner. You are all tired. Take a rest." Cui Xue said without turning her head. Compared to her and Liu Ping, the rest of the Cui family went to the fields to harvest rice, which was much more uncomfortable than breaking corn. "Can you do it?" Liang Xiaoying asked hesitantly. "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? I can't do it?" Cui Xue was speechless and couldn't help but look back at Liang Xiaoying. The original body could cook, but she was spoiled by her parents at home, and she was not allowed to go to the kitchen after she learned to cook. "Look at me, I almost forgot that I taught you that skill." Liang Xiaoying remembered at this time that Cui Xue could cook, and couldn't help laughing. "Okay, then I will enjoy the blessing of being a lady today and wait for the delicious food made by the lady." After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the kitchen with light steps.
Cui Xue shook her head and buried her head in busying herself in front of the stove.
Everyone was hungry, and she didn't want to make it too complicated, so she simply fried some tomato scrambled eggs, sauerkraut pork, carrot and pork rib soup, and a vegetable. The staple food was the mixed grain porridge cooked in the morning. She
shouted loudly for dinner and quickly put the dishes on the table. Soon the table was full.
Seeing the dishes on the table, the Cui family members widened their eyes.
"Xue'er, where did the meat come from?" Cui Yingxiong swallowed his saliva, his eyes straight.
"I bought it and put it in the well on purpose, otherwise it would stink in this weather." Cui Xue was a little worried about the storage of the meat. Fortunately, there was a well at home, so it could be kept for a day or two.
