Chapter 106 Signing a New Contract
Lu Yuening's eyes widened, this...
The courtyard with two entrances is the same as hers. There is a house in the backyard, but there are only six rooms, three upper rooms in the front, two rooms in the east and west, not counting the kitchen and utility room. There are twenty-three people...
It's so crowded.
"Grandma Qian gave birth to four sons, eight grandsons, and six granddaughters. Her husband is gone, and five of the six granddaughters are married, including the youngest. Only the top two grandsons are married, and there are four more. I am a bachelor, my eldest grandson is married and I have three sons, and my second grandson has two children.”
Lu Yuening had a headache hearing this.
Not to mention other things, it is difficult to manage the livelihood of this big family.
Shanhua served Lu Yuening a bowl of chicken soup, "But there are quite a lot of people working in her family. Her four sons are all regular workers, and her daughter-in-law Mu is also a regular worker. All her grandchildren are in the class. Although there are a few temporary workers, But it’s much better than someone without a job.”
Lu Yuening took a sip of the delicious chicken soup and squinted her eyes in enjoyment.
Then he took a bite of the rolled pancake and said, "How do you know so clearly?"
Shanhua was a little embarrassed and her face turned red.
Lu Yuening thought of something and widened her eyes, "Grandma Qian won't have any ideas for you, right?"
Shan Hua sighed, "I don't know. I met her yesterday when I went out to buy groceries. She held me and talked for a long time, and then she was seen by Aunt Gao in front of me. Aunt Gao chatted with me for a while."
Aunt Gao in front of me works in the street office, so she knows the situation best.
She also knew that the male owner of the house was an officer in the army, and when she saw the Huo family on the day of moving, she felt that the people living here were not simple.
Therefore, both inside and outside the words reminded Shanhua that he was also selling personal favors.
Lu Yuening sighed a little after understanding, "No wonder Grandma Qian looked at me a little strange just now."
It seemed like there was a burst of light.
"Be careful. Don't go out alone when it's late. Be careful." Lu Yuening said.
Shanhua was very obedient and nodded seriously.
Afterwards, she told Lu Yuening about the situation at Aunt Chen's house.
Aunt Chen's family is also a big family, with nineteen people living in it. The difference is that Aunt Chen is now the head of the family, and there are no elders in the family. She has three sons and two daughters, and the younger daughter is not married yet.
Family planning hasn’t started yet, and everyone wants to have as many children as they want.
After September next year, there won’t be that much freedom.
Just as he finished speaking, he heard the commotion at Aunt Chen's house next door, and then the cry of the child.
Lu Yuening and Shanhua looked at each other, having too many children was too annoying.
After dinner, Shanhua washed the dishes, wiped the kitchen clean, and brought the books over.
Lu Yuening taught her how to study.
Shanhua has always cherished the opportunity to read and write, and she is also very smart.
Now I know a lot of Chinese characters and can read some simple books by myself.
Lu Yuening taught for half an hour, and then it was time for her to practice alone.
The next day, Lu Yuening was still asleep when he was kicked awake by Little Fat Girl Nian Nian.
She opened her eyes and looked at Nian Nian, who had slapped his butt on her face. She laughed angrily and slapped him.
"That's you. If it were anyone else..."
The little fat girl hadn't woken up yet, so she snorted twice, turned over and went back to sleep.
Lu Yuening got up when he couldn't sleep, washed up and started writing.
I haven't received a reply from the newspaper yet, so I don't know what they think of the contract.
Just thinking about it, Lu Yuening received a reply at noon.
The postman delivered it to her door. After she signed for it, she went back to the house and opened it.
It was a contract that was revised according to her requirements.
It has already been signed and stamped over there, so she just signed and stamped it and it took effect.
At the same time, the letter also urged me to write a manuscript for the second issue, which requires about 50,000 words.
Lu Yuening herself has saved manuscripts. She has saved nearly 120,000 words. If she has 50,000 words, she can serialize them in two issues.
The next submission deadline is half a month later.
She did not hesitate and directly gave me a manuscript of 50,000 words.
The final contract was signed, twenty-five thousand words.
This time, there was also a remittance note sent along with it, for 750 yuan.
This is the manuscript fee she sent last time, which is about 30,000 words, calculated as 30,000 words.
This time it’s 50,000 words, so there will be more.
These days, people who can earn more than a thousand yuan a month are very few and far between.
When Lu Yuening's income was exposed, many people were jealous.
The next day, when Nian Nian fell asleep, she asked Shan Hua to take care of her and went out by herself.
First go to the post office to mail the letter and manuscript, and then withdraw the money.
She went to the department store again.
When I came out, there were big and small bags full of stuff.
People passing by looked sideways.
"Xiao Lu, what are you..." When Lu Yuening came back, there were a few people sitting at the entrance of the alley, who were from the east and west, including Grandma Qian and Aunt Chen.
Lu Yuening smiled and said, "There is something missing at home, so I happened to have some free time, so I went to buy some."
Grandma Qian's eyes flashed. On the day the furniture was moved in, there was a color TV, refrigerator and washing machine, and all other furniture was in good condition.
"Grandma Qian, you guys chat first, I have to go back, the kids at home are still young."
Until Lu Yuening's back disappeared, everyone was talking about it.
"This girl looks like she's only ten years old, but she actually has a child?"
Aunt Chen, "More than five months ago, I heard that her man is an officer."
Grandma Qian also nodded.
"No wonder, he spends money lavishly." He was a little jealous.
"I saw someone moving a refrigerator and a washing machine that day. Are they all from her house?"
In fact, it was just the day before yesterday.
It turned out that Huo Xiao had ordered it but it was out of stock, but one of his friends had their wedding postponed, so he gave the goods to them first.
"Hiss~" He has bought all four major items, and he is not an ordinary person.
A refrigerator costs at least 3,800 yuan, and it may not be available yet.
Everyone is thinking about it with different thoughts.
When Lu Yuening returned home, Shan Hua was playing with Nian Nian.
When I saw her every year, I immediately opened my hands.
Lu Yuening squeezed her chubby hand with a smile. He didn't rush to hug her. He put down the things and washed his hands before coming over to pick up his daughter and give her a hard slap on the face.
The little fat girl was amused.
"Shanhua, what's in this bag is for you." Lu Yuening pointed to the bag next to him.
Inside were two sets of clothes, a shirt and pants, and a pair of sandals.
Shanhua was surprised, pleasantly surprised, and in disbelief.
She touched the clothes lovingly, then looked back at Lu Yuening, "Sister Yuening, these clothes are so good."
The clothes on her body were washed and turned white.
They are all ruffled and patched.
"When we make money in the future, we can all wear better clothes than this." Lu Yuening regarded Shanhua as one of his own.
Shanhua's eyes were red, and she couldn't say any words of refusal. She just told herself over and over in her heart that she must repay Sister Yuening well.
Lu Yuening not only bought Shanhua, but also bought two sets for herself.
A skirt, a pair of trousers, and two pairs of leather sandals.
