The fate of writers

Chapter 6
Liu Zhi unceremoniously sent Liu Shu to leave: "Brother, let's go. Don't you want me, my elder sister, to send you outside the door?"

This time the willow tree didn't dare to push and push the willow branches anymore. He pretended to be a good brother: "I don't dare to bother sister. You are familiar with that person, sister Aju. She just likes to talk, but I It's really my fault that I was able to be teased by her, and I hope sister will forgive my brother. Ah Ling...it's a pity. When you are buried, if sister needs me, just call me and order me around, brother and I will have nothing to say."

After finishing speaking, there was no need to rush, Liu Shu left, and walked quickly, as if someone was chasing him from behind.

Willow Branch frowned watching Willow's leaving back.The younger brother and sister, Aju, have some minor problems and like to gossip, but there is some simple justice in her body.It must be Liu Shu's own attention that Aju can't do it.

It was Ah Ju who scolded those villains who had taken advantage of Jiang Wei after his death in front of Jiang's house.Liu Zhi held a child in one hand and looked at A Ju's back, feeling that A Ju had become extraordinarily tall.She also decided to change after that day, and the person she wanted to learn from was Aju.

If you trouble Aju to do something, although her mouth will not be idle, the matter will be done clearly.Typical knife mouth and bean curd heart.Willow is different, he is used to making promises well and not doing anything.

According to Liu Zhi, Liu Shu is really blessed to have cultivated for eight lifetimes to marry such a hard-working and capable wife as A Ju.

"It's not alive, is it? It's still sticking?" As soon as Liu Zhi spoke, the servants who were still stunned suddenly dispersed like birds and beasts.

At night, Liu Zhi saw that Jiang Ling was about to leave after drinking the medicine, but was stopped by Jiang Ling.Seeing that Jiang Ling had something to say, Liu Zhi shunned the people around him.

Liu Zhi sat beside Jiang Ling's bed, with an air of listening attentively.

"When will he be buried?" Jiang Ling was referring to Jiang Wang.

"In recent days, the Taoist priest said that nine days later is a suitable day for a funeral. It's better to hurry up. You don't know that my heart has been hanging on my heart. I'm afraid that my secret will be revealed. Today, Liu Shu will come alone. In the future, if a group of people come, or maybe I will be crowned in five years, but how will I deal with getting married and having children?" Liu Zhi got a headache just thinking about it. Why was she deceived by Jiang Ling in the first place? What should Jiang Ling do about her personal happiness?

"Mother, we sold the land recently and carved two steles. After Ah Wang was buried, we left and went to the county. We didn't come back until we could. We changed the stele before we left. It was originally for us. The two living people, the mother and the daughter, wronged him, and let Ah Wang use his own name." Jiang Ling said.

Jiang Ling's original plan was to replace Jiang Wang's identity and be a landlord in Dongliu, but this is different now, her writer system has been loaded successfully, and she still has to go to the county if she wants to become famous.

There are many newspapers in the county.When Jiang Ling was a child, Jiang Wei always brought several newspapers with him when he came back from the county. It was only then that Jiang Ling realized that newspapers and newspapers had developed outside.Jiang Ling's favorite time to pester Jiang Wei when he was a child was when Jiang Wei brought back new newspapers from the county.

The above news made her understand the outside world and expanded her horizons.There is also a special novel magazine, but the stories published are a bit old-fashioned for Jiang Ling, but there are also some writers with wonderful writing and fascinating plots. Their novels add a touch of color to Jiang Ling's boring ancient life.

After listening to Jiang Ling's plan, Liu Zhi once again realized how courageous Jiang Ling really is: "My little friend, why are you so courageous?"

"As I said before, what should you do if you regret it? Now that the news of Jiang Ling's death in the fire has spread, how do you turn around?" Liu Zhi looked at Jiang Ling's calm face, and didn't know how she could do this. generally calm.

"Mother, I have no regrets. This is part of the plan. We need enough silver to live in the county, so we need a reasonable reason to sell the land. Awang wants a grand burial, and then spreads the news that my illness healed so quickly It's because I met a miracle doctor, and the medicine prescribed by the miracle doctor naturally has miraculous effects, but the medicinal materials are really rare, each flavor is a rare treasure, and you need to spend a lot of money to buy it." Jiang Ling can't say that she changed her mind because of the system.

"There is a small courtyard bought by my father in the county. We are not without a place to stay in the county. The tenant's lease expired in May. I decided not to renew the contract. We can move in when we arrive in the county. The county also There is Uncle Zeng, and many of my father’s old acquaintances are in the county. There are great scholars in the conversation, but there are no casual friends. The friends my father makes must be gentlemen. With the help of gentlemen, we are no longer isolated and helpless like in Dongliu.” Jiang Ling I don't know the character of Jiang Wei's friends, but in order to persuade Liu Zhi to enter the county, she can only praise first.

Liu Zhi sees Jiang Wei with a filter, she thinks Jiang Wei is a noble gentleman, and the friends he makes are naturally gentlemen too.Secondly, Dongliu's relatives really hurt Liuzhi's heart, making people feel strange.

"If you sell the field, how will you and I live? You can't just sit and eat." Liu Zhi unconsciously no longer rejected entering the county.In other words, she has always been the most flexible, as long as the benefits outweigh the harms.

"We can use part of the money to buy a shop, start a small business, or buy two small courtyards for rent. With money in hand, it is not difficult to make money from money. My father has always been an open-minded person. Since he was guarding Tian, ​​he hoped that we would live a better life. I have a manuscript in my hand now, and I can contribute it to the newspaper, but I feel good about myself, and I think I can be famous." Jiang Ling laughed, she has no manuscript, but her brain Here's an idea.

"If my Aling doesn't become famous, people will be ignorant. I will buy a newspaper by then and publish articles written by Aling." Liuzhi also relaxed and joked.

"Mother, let's enter the county." Jiang Ling put away his smile and said seriously.

"Have you decided?" Liu Zhi also asked with a restrained smile.

"When we get to the county, we decide for ourselves, and we don't have to pretend to be worried for the rest of our lives." Jiang Ling must be going to the county, and the county is the starting point of her career as a writer.

"Most of the servants in that family are going to be dismissed. Most of them are from Dongliu. They signed a contract of living. Their parents and relatives are all in Dongliu. After we enter the county, we will basically not return to Dongliu. Separation is always bad." After Liu Zhi changed his mind, he immediately thought about how to deal with the servants of the family property.

"Whether the contract expires or not, let them go home, and give them a few shillings to make the transition. It's all a good deed, and it's a good deed for Awang." Jiang Ling had a goal, and he didn't want to stay in Dongliu for a moment, and only wanted to think about the county. where to develop.

"Yes. As for the land, you can't act like you are in a hurry to sell it, otherwise the price will be lowered. There are many people in Dongliu who actually have money to buy land, but even if they don't buy the land well, the land will be divided. We can sell it to They need to find more people, it will be a little troublesome, but it won't let anyone get an advantage." Liu Zhi was referring to the people who wanted to take advantage of the Jiang family.

Jiang Ling nodded, it's good if he doesn't suffer: "Listen to mother, we should still..."

The mother and daughter planned a lot tonight, until Jiang Ling felt that his throat was uncomfortable and it was difficult to say a word.Only then did Liu Zhi realize that this eloquent talker was still a patient.
