Chapter 231 Teacher Gu, it’s so hard for you to hide it from us (please order it in full)
“Two thousand four hundred and eighty, right?”
When Feng Jiayou was a girl, her two dimples were really not too pretty when she smiled. Now that she has just become a mother, she is really not too sexy, and her beauty is even more lustful.
At this moment, Cheng Xuemin was intoxicated by his wife's smile.
If it weren't for the second sister-in-law and the others who were looking over here, Cheng Xuemin would have wanted to stab her on the spot and have sex with her first.
"What is Xuemin asking you? Is it two thousand four hundred and eighty? Why are you in such a daze?"
Seeing her man suddenly absent-minded, Feng Jiayou, who was waiting to count the money, had not yet reacted. She was coveting the manuscript fee slip in her man's bag, but she didn't know that her man was more covetous of her.
But after all, they are all people who have been here before. How can Feng Jiayou not know the virtues of his own men?
The Feng family reacted quickly and gave Cheng Xuemin a flirtatious look: "Are you going to die? My sister and sister-in-law are all in the house!"
"Besides, your son is watching too!"
The Feng kitten glanced at his son who was sleeping in the bamboo bed next to him, and he didn't know when he woke up.
Maybe it’s the heart-to-heart connection between father and son!
Whenever Cheng Xuemin, a father, came over, this kid would wake up by accident.
"Daughter-in-law, your smile is so beautiful that it can charm anyone to death! It's true!"
Cheng Xuemin couldn't help but praise his woman. This was a true compliment from the bottom of his heart. His woman's smile was really beautiful and charming.
They say that the kind of woman who can captivate a city with one smile and captivate an entire country with another smile, maybe she is talking about this kind of woman like his wife, right?
"Not serious!"
Feng Jiayou rolled her eyes at her man with pleasure again. No longer waiting for Cheng Xuemin to take out his wallet, she went directly with her purse and began to rummage through the royalties slip inside.
"Don't provoke me, I can't stand your provocation at this time!"
Then he raised his eyes again and warned Cheng Xuemin again.
Although she knew that her man was indeed having a hard time during this period, but why wasn't she the same?
Especially during this period of confinement, she really can't stand a little provocation.
so!
Every night, she and Cheng Xuemin basically sleep in separate beds. She and her son now sleep on the nanmu bed, and Cheng Xuemin sleeps on the kang.
The 38th parallel was clearly drawn every night, and Cheng Xuemin would never be allowed to cross the line, unless her son was in a panic at night.
"No, no, my wife, didn't I bring you the payment slip?" Seeing through his attempt, Cheng Xuemin smiled bitterly, and then went to help Feng Jiayou get the payment slip from his bag.
He tucked the bill of royalties into a manuscript, and the Feng family couldn't find it for a while.
“I can’t even come back to collect the manuscript fee!”
Feng Jiayou scolded him so carelessly again, and Cheng Xuemin's enthusiasm for helping to find the royalties was instantly dampened.
My wife doesn’t like this. Didn’t we always agree to celebrate once with a royalties bill?
Today, Cheng Xuemin finally brought back a fee bill, and it was a large fee bill. My wife, we can’t deny the bill just because we are in confinement, okay?
Yes, you really shouldn’t be too messy during confinement, but why don’t you just let you use your mouth to satisfy your cravings?
"Huh? Two thousand four hundred and seventy-two? I didn't calculate it correctly!" Feng Jiayou pretended to be confused and only talked about the royalties and no more celebrations.
Seeing that the amount on the royalties was eight yuan less than what she had calculated before, she deliberately used the topic in a big way to change the subject.
"The last volume only has sixty-one sheets. The five volumes add up to 309 sheets. The single sheet costs eight yuan, so isn't it 2,472 yuan?"
Cheng Xuemin rolled his eyes, very dissatisfied with his wife's poor performance.
It's just eight yuan less in royalties. Is it such a fuss?
The first nine volumes of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms are all finalized according to the sixty-two pages of a single volume. Only the last volume has sixty-one pages. Isn’t it normal that one page is missing?
"Yes, yes, Xuemin, you are right, it is indeed 2,472 yuan, which is already very, very amazing!"
“It’s been a long time since our family received a royalties bill like today!”
Of course, Feng Jiayou just wanted to divert the man's attention, and was quite satisfied with the fee bill.
"Does that mean we need to celebrate?"
Cheng Xuemin took advantage of the situation and mentioned the good thing again with a smile.
"Ah, sister, are you calling Xuemin?"
"By the way, Xuemin, just now my sister and my second sister-in-law couldn't figure out a question, and I'm not very good at solving it either!"
"I'm just waiting for you to come back. Hurry over and help my sister and the others answer the questions!"
When it came to the celebration, Feng Jiayou directly refused to admit it, and then deliberately thought of something, shouted in the direction of the main room behind him, and urged Cheng Xuemin to hurry over.
"Okay, let's do the same thing at night!"
Cheng Xuemin will not let this woman go. It was originally a matter of night. Let’s see how he deals with her!
You actually want to take money and do nothing!
At the same time, Liu Xinwu from "October" has just returned to his own unit from the Humanities Club.
"Old Liu, Lao Liu, do you know what award Mr. Gu and her son-in-law Cheng Xuemin received at the commendation meeting in the Great Hall yesterday?"
Liu Xinwu just entered the unit and glanced at the editorial department but did not see Teacher Gu.
But the other editors present saw Liu Xinwu, and Cao Aiqin rushed up and said impatiently.
"What award did you win? I met Xuemin at the Humanities Club today, and they didn't say what award you won?"
"It should be the group award of their condolences group, right?"
Today at the Humanities Club, Liu Xinwu also asked Cheng Xuemin if he won any award at the commendation meeting yesterday?
Cheng Xuemin just replied that he had indeed won the award.
However, the specific award was not stated clearly. Liu Xinwu guessed that it was very different from what they had discussed before. It might be a group certificate for the condolences group.
certainly!
Now Liu Xinwu doesn't care what award Cheng Xuemin won at the commendation meeting yesterday.
Now he just wants to tell the colleagues present, his close comrades, and their good son-in-law Cheng Xuemin from "October" how many awards he has won outside.
It can be said that the first awards ceremony held by their cultural outlet this time was basically held for this guy!
Good guy!
Unknowingly, one person has monopolized six award-winning manuscripts, but none of them belong to their "October"!
Liu Xinwu is really upset now and really wants to complain to Teacher Gu.
"Old Liu, what's the group award for the condolences group?"
"It's a first-class merit medal and a first-class combat hero certificate!"
"Teacher Gu brought all the medals and certificates received by her students early this morning!"
Cao Aiqin rolled her eyes. Old Liu's mental state was not right today!
For the first time today, the news about Teacher Gu and her son-in-law Cheng Xuemin is not very enthusiastic at all.
If this was normal, Lao Liu would be the most concerned about his son-in-law.
"First-class merit?"
"Level 1 combat hero?"
"Is it true?"
Liu Xinwu, who had not thought about it at first and had a depressed expression on his face, was instantly stunned when Cao Aiqin broke the news!
Are you kidding? Did he hear it correctly?
Cheng Xuemin received the First Class Medal of Merit and the First Class Combat Hero Certificate at yesterday's commendation meeting?
This... this is unlikely, right?
Liu Xinwu had served in the military in his early years. He knew that if he wanted to get these two medals in the army, he not only had to make great military exploits, but he also had to be able to save half his life.
These two conditions may be indispensable, otherwise you will not get the first-class merit medal. But now Cao Aiqin actually told herself that Cheng Xuemin was awarded the first-class merit medal and the first-class combat hero certificate at yesterday's commendation meeting?
How is this possible? ! The Cheng Xuemin I saw at the Humanities Club today was completely intact, neither blind nor deaf. It didn’t look like he was stuck in a half-life state at all, right?
"Old Liu, you are a first-class meritorious and first-class combat hero. Teacher Gu has brought medals and certificates. How can this be fake?"
The leader of the editorial team, Elder Wang, also nodded vigorously. They had already seen the medals and certificates. How could this be fake?
"Really?"
Liu Xinwu was even more dumbfounded and shocked when he saw Lao Wang standing up and speaking eloquently!
So... what exactly did he do on the front line?
Teacher Gu, it’s so hard for her to hide this from me, Lao Liu!
"It really can't be true anymore. This is the first time I've seen a first-class military medal. It's golden and should not be too sacred and glorious!" Lao Wang nodded and emphasized.
"Yes, Old Liu, you didn't pay attention to the teacher's cheerfulness today. I'm really envious of her for having such a good son-in-law. Don't be too arrogant about being capable in both literature and martial arts!"
Cao Aiqin has long since moved past the secret rivalry with Teacher Gu. Now, in addition to envying Teacher Gu for having a good son-in-law, she only has envy!
I also hate my two sons-in-law, who only know how to drive screws in the factory. I asked them to follow the manuscript she wrote and use other sentences and words to write it again, but they can't do it!
Anyway, she, Cao Aiqin, was done with it, so she still had to train a son-in-law who could write manuscripts.
And considering that their respective positions have different divisions of labor, her son-in-law is good at driving screws. In fact, he can't afford to be educated, but he can still use his strength to drive screws.
At the very least, if Teacher Gu's son-in-law is asked to drive screws, he will definitely not be able to beat her two sons-in-law.
But now it’s better!
Teacher Gu and her son-in-law directly brought back first-class martial arts and first-class combat heroes to her, the mother-in-law.
In an instant, her son-in-law, who was good at screwing, was pressed to the ground and rolled and rubbed.
No comparison, no comparison, no comparison, no comparison!
Cao Aiqin has seen through it all. Her two sons-in-law are both in love with each other in terms of martial arts and culture, but they cannot keep up with Teacher Gu!
"Teacher Gu? Where is Teacher Gu now?"
Hearing that he was really a first-class meritorious and first-class combat hero, Liu Xinwu just wanted Teacher Gu to come. He just wanted to ask Teacher Gu what else happened to the mother-in-law and son-in-law together. He, the editor-in-chief, didn't know!
"Teacher Gu...Teacher Gu, she just...here, Teacher Gu is here!"
Cao Aiqin turned around and was about to say to Teacher Gu that she was still here just now. When she saw Feng's mother coming in from the outside, she reminded her.
"Old Liu, how are you back? Are you almost done with the preparations for the awards ceremony? It will start the day after tomorrow. The award-winning authors from various places should be coming over one after another. Have you signed in?"
When Feng's mother came in and saw Liu Xinwu, who had just returned from the Humanities Club, her eyes lit up and she stepped forward and asked with concern.
"Teacher Gu, it's so hard for you to hide this from me!"
Liu Xinwu didn't mention any preparation work at first, but directly 'accused' Feng's mother. It was really hard to hide it from him.
Anyway, I was so resentful at the Humanities Club today.
"Well!?"
"Lao Liu, Lao Wang and the others have told you?"
Feng's mother also guessed that several other colleagues in the office must have told Lao Liu about her son-in-law Cheng Xuemin's commendation while she was away.
Immediately, his face was very bright and he said: "Actually, I didn't want to hide it from you. Moreover, the commendation meeting was held yesterday, and Xuemin was also commended yesterday. We also learned that he was awarded the first-class military medal and the first-class combat hero. Honorary title!”
"I brought it here early today, but Lao Liu, you just happened to go to the Humanities Club, so you're not here!"
The more Liu Xinwu listened, the more bitter he became, and his face was still full of resentment. After hearing what Teacher Gu said so much, he nodded bitterly and said:
"Xuemin has received such a high honorary title in the army. I think there must be too much deeds involved, and it is not convenient to tell us!"
"We must understand this Teacher Gu very well!"
Liu Xinwu shook his head and continued, "But what I want to say is, it's not about military medals and certificates of honor!"
It is indeed not about the medals and certificates, but about her son-in-law’s six award-winning manuscripts!
Liu Xinwu wanted to know whether you, Teacher Gu, as the mother-in-law, knew about these six award-winning manuscripts in advance?
"Huh? That's not what happened? What are you referring to, Old Liu?"
Now it was Feng's mother's turn to be very surprised. She thought it was because her family learned the merits of the civilian army.
But now Lao Liu actually says that this is not the case. What could it be?
Mother Feng thought about it carefully. There should be nothing to hide from Old Liu, right?
At least work matters, matters related to their "October" magazine, seemed to be discussed by everyone. Feng's mother should not have done anything else behind the back of Lao Liu, the editor-in-chief!
Not to mention how hard it was to hide it from him!
Isn’t it about military medals and first-level combat heroes today?
After hearing this, other Lao Wang and Cao Aiqin became excited. There was actually something to eat from the melon, and it was quite exciting now.
"Teacher Gu, you really don't know? About Xuemin's award this time?"
Seeing the surprise on Teacher Gu's face, Liu Xinwu was a little undecided. Not only did Teacher Gu think she was the mother-in-law, she really didn't know, right?
If you really don’t know, then Cheng Xuemin, a good son-in-law, did it secretly behind her mother-in-law’s back!
If his mother-in-law really doesn’t know this, then should I tell Cheng Xuemin about his evil behavior in front of her mother-in-law now?
Isn’t this...not good?
Liu Xinwu suddenly realized that maybe Teacher Gu, the mother-in-law, really didn’t know.
"Eh? Xuemin went to the Humanities Club today and signed in?"
When Liu Xinwu mentioned the award, Feng's mother immediately realized that it must be her son-in-law who went to sign in today and was bumped into by Old Liu.
So some things, after all, cannot be contained by paper!
Originally, Feng's mother really didn't want Lao Liu and the others to know about some manuscripts. After all, it was her son-in-law who submitted them to outside magazines behind the family's back.
But who knows!
Her son-in-law's abilities are so incredible that all of the short stories he wrote years ago unexpectedly won awards.
Today her son-in-law Cheng Xuemin went to sign in at the Humanities Club and was bumped into by Old Liu again!
What else is there to say? Lao Liu must know everything now.
"Yes! I met Xuemin at the Humanities Club! He happened to go there to sign in too!"
"Teacher Gu, do you know how many awards Xuemin won this time?"
Liu Xinwu nodded bitterly, then asked Feng's mother a question.
"Old Liu, aren't there three?"
"The Wrangler and Youyou Cuncaoxin from Yanjing Literature, and the story of the appointment of Director Qiao from People's Literature!"
“Originally, Director Qiao’s inauguration record should have been submitted for selection by us in October, but it was snatched away by People’s Literature!”
Cao Aiqin, who was standing next to her, responded quickly and expressed her strong indignation for their October.
Liu Xinwu ignored Cao Aiqin, but still looked at Feng's mother with bitterness, hoping that she could tell her, weren't they the three?
This also made Liu Xinwu feel a little better. At least Teacher Gu, the mother-in-law, did not know about it and was kept in the dark.
"It should be six, right?"
"In addition to these three stories about love, there should be "Loess Plateau" from "Yanhe Literature", "Female College Students' Dormitory" from "Shanghai Literature and Art", and "The Traitor" from Balao's "Harvest"!"
"A total of these six manuscripts should have won the award. I really don't know if there are other pseudonymous manuscripts!"
Feng's mother replied angrily to Liu Xinwu and the others. Liu Xinwu sounded fine, but the others were instantly stunned on the spot, their eyes full of disbelief.
