Chapter 55 The royalties are coming
Li Xiaoli probably didn't know that because of her reluctance during the toast, she lost an opportunity to control a small amount of money.
Xie Jingyan saw that Mrs. Luo Qi knew what she was doing, so she didn't say anything more. Anyway, this meant that her complaint had been successful.
After the banquet was over, everyone packed up and went back to rest. The next step was to prepare for the bride’s full moon reception in a month’s time.
This full-moon wine is entertained by the bride's family members, usually her sisters-in-law, aunts, and the like. Of course, the time must be after the full moon.
So the current preparation is actually just to check the existing materials that can be saved, such as saving some dry goods first, so that they can be used later.
For the rest, when the day comes, just buy some appropriate fresh ingredients.
No matter what, the wedding in the commercial port is over.
Xie Jingyan went to school the next day after getting married in the commercial port.
When she didn't want to go to school, the teacher taught her to go to the office.
"Teacher Zhou, look for me." Xie Jingyan arrived at the office.
"I have called you here for two things. One is that your preliminary test results for the math competition have come out, with full marks. You have to prepare. We will go to the city to participate in the math competition next Sunday." Teacher Zhou said.
"Okay." Xie Jingyan didn't expect the results to come out so quickly.
"The second thing is that you have a letter. This is yours. It's from the publishing house." Teacher Zhou didn't expect that the publishing house would write to Xie Jingyan. Although he was curious, he didn't open it directly, but waited for Xie Jingyan.
Come and take it apart yourself.
Xie Jingyan raised her eyebrows slightly. From the publishing house, it seemed that her submitted manuscript contained information, so she hurriedly finished the letter and opened it.
After reading the content, as expected, she smiled: "During the Chinese New Year, I felt the atmosphere of the rural New Year, so I wrote an article "Red New Year's Miscellaneous Notes" and submitted it. I just wanted to give it a try and didn't want to be admitted now.
Yes, there is also a remittance slip, which is not much. The fee for this manuscript is five yuan."
Although five yuan was not much, Xie Jingyan knew that he had found a way to make money temporarily.
"Really, which magazine did you apply for?" Teacher Zhou's face was full of surprise.
"It's a composition for primary school students. You have already sent me a sample of it. As for the entire sample of primary school students' works, they will be sent to me after it comes out. They said it will be published on the primary school students' composition next month."
Xie Jingyan handed the sample manuscript to Teacher Zhou.
Although Teacher Zhou teaches mathematics, it does not mean that he has no appreciation ability. When he saw this piece of composition, he smiled: "Xie Jingyan, you are so good, can you give this manuscript to the teacher? I will show it to the principal.
It’s time to put up the promotional window.”
Xie Jingyan curled up after hearing this: "Teacher Zhou, isn't this a bit too big? It's just a composition."
"Xie Jingyan, you have to remember, this is not a composition, it is a proof that you have become an outstanding young pioneer." Teacher Zhou looked at Xie Jingyan seriously.
Xie Jingyan doesn't care about these reputations, but as a primary school student, he needs to care about these reputations: "Okay, teacher, you can take it. Unfortunately, there is no copy, otherwise I will take a copy to show to my parents."
There are no photocopiers today, so there is no way to make copies.
"It's okay. This is your original manuscript. I will take it to the principal first. After confirming it, I will have someone engrave it for you and then paste it. Then this manuscript will be given to you."
Teacher Zhou thought about it, such a commemorative thing cannot be wasted casually, it is better to have it engraved.
"Okay, I'll trouble you, teacher." Xie Jingyan immediately gave the sample to Teacher Zhou and returned to the classroom.
Xie Jingyan's composition is going to be published in "Primary School Student Composition". What a great honor it is.
After Teacher Zhou approached the principal, the principal immediately agreed. This was a good thing and represented the honor of their Hongxing Town Primary School.
So without saying a word, I asked Teacher Zhou to find someone to print out the content of the composition, and then posted it on the school's publicity window.
The next day, the entire Hongxing Town Elementary School knew that there was a classmate named Xie Jingyan in Class 2, Grade 3, and that her composition would be published in the primary school students' composition next month.
When get out of class was over, many students came over to take a look at Xie Jingyan.
When Xie Jingyan saw this, she patted her face. Unexpectedly, this had not yet entered the entertainment era of later generations, but she had become so famous. She felt like a star.
At the same time, Xie Fugui and Luo Jinlian knew that Xie Jingyan's essay was going to be published, so they had a good time publicizing it.
In fact, there is no need for Xie Fugui and the others to publicize it. The Hongxing Town Primary School has issued an engraved essay to the Hongxing Primary School in Wangxi Village, so there is no need for Xie Fugui and the others to say anything. The entire Wangxi Village already knows that Xie Jingyan’s essay is going to be published.
It’s time for “Primary School Student Composition”.
After Xie Jingyan came home from school, Xie Fugui bought two apples and gave one to each of Xie Jingyan's sisters as an extra meal.
"Er Niu, how much is your remuneration this time?" Xie Ruyan asked curiously.
"Five dollars." Xie Jingyan glanced at Xie Ruyan: "It's not much. You don't want to ask me to borrow money. I plan to save money to buy a walkman to learn English."
"Then you write more articles and earn more. I will borrow some from you then. I want to buy a guqin." Xie Ruyan said.
"Your guqin costs at least fifty yuan. According to my five yuan for one article, I have to write ten.
And I want to buy a Walkman. The lowest price of a Walkman is fifteen yuan. Although I already have the New Year’s money and other things, I still have to learn to play chess.” Xie Jingyan sighed:
"I remember you made more than ten yuan from embroidery during the summer vacation, and then the New Year's money was the same as mine. The total of the little bits and pieces is almost thirty. If you work harder, you should be able to buy it."
"I know, but I have to study and pay two yuan every month, so I plan to borrow some from you." Xie Ruyan did not hide her purpose, and she now wished she could break a penny into two cents and use it.
"After I've done my own calculations, I can lend you the extra money, but you have to write an IOU and the repayment date." Xie Jingyan didn't think it would be okay if he just borrowed it casually.
Some things are better clarified.
"You two sisters still know it so well." Luo Jinlian didn't care now. Mainly because after the Lantern Festival, she really searched around, but couldn't find the place where the two sisters hid their money.
Fortunately, the two sisters did not spend money blindly.
Even if Xie Ruyan wanted to borrow money from Xie Jingyan this time, he said it in front of them, and made it clear why he wanted to borrow money and how much he wanted to borrow.
"Mom, this is called settling accounts between brothers." Xie Jingyan said seriously: "My sister and I are biological sisters, and we can't settle accounts just because we are biological sisters.
Whether my sister can borrow money on time or not is one thing, but her attitude is also another thing.
Last time I heard Uncle Wang Qi next door say that when you borrow money, you are brothers, and when you pay back the money, you become the uncle. Even if you treat someone as the uncle, they may not pay you back."
