"My cousin also makes a lot of money a year decorating the house. You said that if you had studied plumbing, laying bricks, etc., you would be considered a craftsman now."
She just said it casually, but Lu Cheng didn't know what he thought of, but he lowered his head to think about it.
…
And this simple conversation really stirred up a storm in Lu Li's heart.
——Zhenzhu is worthy of being someone who can't deal with her. She knows how to make this sister-in-law unhappy.
At this moment, Lu Li felt really unhappy in her heart.
Isn’t their family still talking about debts? How come the eldest brother has money to buy a house in the imperial capital?
How can this be?!
Moreover, the house has not been handed over yet, and it must not have been built yet. This is a new house.
——Where did the money come from?
She put down the bowl in disbelief and stared at Ma Lu:
"Mom, did you lend money to my brother to buy a house?!"
She can't accept this.
When she went to college, her mother said she had borrowed the tuition fee of six to seven thousand yuan a year for a few days. If she opened her mouth, she would be in debt, and if she kept her mouth shut, she would pay back the money.
On the phone, they didn't know how many times they had quarreled over this.
But now, he quietly bought a house for his brother!
My son is building a new house and buying a new house.
What about the daughter? Aren’t daughters important?
The house in the Imperial Capital... How much money does their family owe? My sister-in-law has to borrow money from me to give birth to a child. Do I expect myself to pay it back in the future?
She hasn't even started her youth yet, is she going to be burdened with such debt?!
Lu Li couldn't even wait for Ma Lu's answer before she stood up angrily:
"Mom, what a big deal this is! Why didn't anyone tell me?"
Her heart was full of anger.
"I can see that there is no place for me in this family, right? Okay, just tell me, I'll leave now!"
"You go!"
She put the bowl down, and Pearl slapped her chopsticks on the table.
At this moment, this tough sister-in-law pointed at the door:
"Let's go! If you can, go back to the Imperial Capital now!"
"I don't know anything. I'm just talking about this and that. Lu Li, my family is not good enough for you? What kind of life do you think other girls in the village live like?"
"You are the only one in the whole village who goes to college. Do you think you are great?"
"That's the blood and sweat of our father, our mother, and your brother!" and dignity.
"You can't borrow money, but you have to kowtow to others and have to endure their disgust and supercilious looks. Do you feel good about this feeling?"
"I said there is no place for you in this family... I don't think there is a place for you! Think about what you did? After you came back, besides waiting for food and service like an uncle, you asked our dad what
Mom, how are you doing?"
Pearl looked down upon her and had a problem with her from the beginning, not without reason.
Maybe women know women best.
From the moment she became familiar with this family, she could see that while Lu Li enjoyed everything with peace of mind, she felt that she didn't get enough.
This never-satisfied mentality really made it difficult for Pearl to have a good impression of her at first.
"Does this home have a place in your heart?"
"As long as you have some position, you won't be able to do such a thing."
Hot Pearl really refuses to give in at all.
"My dad has been in the imperial capital for treatment for most of the month. If you have any thoughts, just make a phone call and anyone in the village can tell you."
"You probably don't know about this until now."
The sarcasm on Pearl's face was so obvious.
"An operation costs tens of thousands. Guess where the money for medical treatment comes from?"
Her words were direct and pungent, nakedly peeling away the side of Lu Li's heart that was most unacceptable to her.
At this moment, everyone in the room was silent.
…
And looking at the dark night outside the yard, and the mountain road with absolutely no passing cars.
Lu Li could not refute, but at this moment she could only admit in humiliation that she did not have the courage to leave this house.
Her face turned red with humiliation, and tears instantly poured down her face.
Immediately, he rushed into his room without looking back and slammed the door.
pearl:……
So angry!
The newly built small house next to it is the house where they got married!
Lili was still young at that time, so she specially reserved a room for her younger siblings. Now seeing Lu Li go in, I really want to drive her out with chopsticks.
But the scolding just now was so cool, if I try to do it now, I will inevitably feel a bit unreasonable.
Pearl snorted softly in her heart, and for some reason, it seemed as if all the suffocation she had been holding had been let out.
Sure enough, it would be too impulsive to tear her face apart in front of her parents.
but……
Stimulate.
satisfy.
However, Pearl also knew that what she just said was too direct. It made sense in theory, but in terms of logic... who could say for sure?
She looked back at Dacheng and Lu Ma, who were silent, and sat down:
"Eat quickly, the food will be cold later."
…
Lu Li was lying on the pillow, tears streaming down her cheeks and unable to stop. But at this moment, her cell phone sent out a notification.
——This blazingly fast Internet speed still supported her QQ, and now the person sending the message was actually the editor of "Girls" magazine.
Lu Li:!!!
She instantly became energetic.
This magazine still owes her nearly 700 yuan in royalties.
Is it possible that it will finally be released? Or is there some news about the copyright?
She wiped her face indiscriminately with the back of her hand and tried to look at the screen with her eyes wide open. She could not contain the grievance and anger she felt just now.
Editor: Oh my gosh, my dear, this novel of yours was a hit during the serialization period!
Editor: Congratulations, you have really shown your ability, your writing is great, the plot is particularly outstanding, and you have received a lot of feedback from readers.
Editor: Your royalties will be credited to your card this week. The card number has not changed, right?
Lu Li's expression went from ecstasy to disbelief, to her heart pounding.
She endured the shaking of her hands and quickly replied:
"Thank you for the editor, there are no changes."
The editor also spoke in a harmonious and gentle manner, completely different from the stiff and impatient manner before.
"Have you written any new stories recently? Didn't you submit them to other magazines?"
"Listen to me, this novel of yours has great potential. It is very consistent with the reader positioning of our magazine, and it now has a certain readership base. If you have time, I suggest you write another similar book. This subject is currently selling well!
"
What else could Lu Li say?
At this moment she would just nod wildly.
"Okay, I've got an idea, so I'll write it down."
"Okay, then you must work hard. Although there is no news about the copyright mentioned before, the greater your reputation, the more expensive the copyright will be. By then, a book will make you worry-free
It’s the next life.”
The editor's tone was soft, as if he was caring for his golden doll.
"Our magazine is a monthly magazine. We serialize 20,000 words a month. In two months, your story will be over. Try to give me a complete story before then! Only in this way can I evaluate whether I have the ability to continue serializing on the homepage.
.”
"That's right. Just like this story, don't change the pattern and routine. Readers are very fond of it."
"OK."
At this moment, Lu Li's fighting spirit was high.
She has even conceived a new story in this flash of lightning——
A girl who was born in a rural area and struggled a lot to get out of a family that favored boys over girls.
She is so ordinary, like an inconspicuous ugly duckling, growing up hard in a family full of oppression.
But he is so self-improving, relying on his own hard work and struggle, step by step to the imperial capital, constantly transforming during his studies, and thus meets his true destiny.
Sounds pretty good, right?
But she had to apply the core of the previous article before she could continue to conceive and write it, because over the years, her own experience only lasted until school.
In this family that values boys over girls, there is a vicious female partner, her sister-in-law who is greedy for money and is mean and tries to make her drop out of school and marry the old man.
There is also a cowardly elder brother who only listens to his wife and has no regard for the brother-sister relationship.
Parents who favor sons over daughters, and a younger brother who only knows how to behave and wallow.
And in school, he was as noble as a prince, but he only fell in love with the tenacious heroine at first sight.
Of course he also has a fiancée, but that fiancée has an empty mind and evil thoughts, and keeps bullying her in school by relying on his power and money.
Misunderstandings again and again led her to meet the gentle and elegant president of the student union, the basketball boy with a fiery personality, and the indifferent professor who met and admired her in the library...
In the dark room, the lights were not turned on.
Lu Li was lying on the cold bed, but her heart was burning.
As she conceived this story, she felt as if all her inspiration was flowing into it - this was the pinnacle she had never reached.
Her talent in writing is indeed as good as anyone else.
