Gu Jin first glanced at the title of the book - "The Chief Assistant of the Ming Dynasty". The title was quite impressive.
Looking at the author's name again - "Old Man of Mountains and Rivers", it sounds a bit like a bold and unrestrained literary youth.
She searched for this book on her computer and started reading.
At this glance, I saw nine o'clock in the evening. He had only read less than half of the million-word novel, and Gu Jin's stomach was already growling.
She moved her stiff neck, somewhat unfinished.
This book is about a modern man who traveled to the late Ming Dynasty, passed the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination, struggled in the officialdom, was framed and wronged, but still stayed true to his heart and served the country and the people. Step by step, he ascended to the position of chief assistant and tried his best to restore the precarious Ming Dynasty.
The book's description of the officialdom and the lives of the people in the late Ming Dynasty is very realistic and can be called a record of the officialdom in action.
The characters are also very full and impartial. It can be seen that he has a deep understanding of the history of the Ming Dynasty, and his writing style is countless times better than those of the so-called great masters.
What's even more rare is that among the hundreds of thousands of words I have read so far, the protagonist in the book has always been devoted to his wife, whether he is at a low point or at a high position.
Gu Jin had also seen some male videos in his previous life. No matter how touched the male protagonist was at the beginning by his wife's companionship and support, he would never show any mercy when it came time to accept girls later on.
She deeply hates this kind of writing that reflects feudal patriarchal ideas, and has been accidentally criticized many times. She is filled with tears when she thinks about it!
If this article continues to maintain its style, it will definitely become a masterpiece, and it is not impossible to adapt it to film and television in the future!
It was rare to encounter a story about the struggle of the protagonist that he liked, and Gu Jin felt extremely happy.
Several hours passed without the phone ringing. She rubbed her belly, picked up her phone, and planned to order takeout.
When I opened it, I discovered that she had set the silent mode at some point.
Open the screen and several messages and missed calls are displayed.
The message came from Tong Lin, asking her what she thought of the novel.
There are phone numbers belonging to my younger brother Gu Teng, one with an unknown number, and one belonging to Mu Mingcheng.
The first two numbers rang more than once, but only the 1 after Mu Mingcheng's phone number stood straight up.
Gu Jin casually added the unknown number to the blacklist and started ordering takeout. Looking across the rows of meat and vegetables, Gu Jin pinched the newly grown fat on his waist and ordered a pumpkin and millet porridge with stir-fried vegetables.
After some hesitation, I couldn't help but add a small portion of stir-fried pork.
While waiting for the takeout, she sent a message back to Tong Lin:
[The book is very good, and the plot and characters are all brilliant.]
It's just that the emotional line is a little weak. When it comes to the scenes between the male protagonist and his wife, it can be seen that the author is very slow in describing emotions.
After thinking about it, she added another one, [Unfortunately, the author does not sign a contract and cannot join v, so there is no place for giving rewards.]
Indeed, without signing a contract, the author will not receive the reward money.
On the other end of the phone, Tong Lin had been waiting for a reply for several hours.
"Boss, what are you looking at?"
Wang Tuo, a key member of the literary club, worked overtime until nine o'clock to finish his work. When he looked up, he saw the president's gentle smile.
He was startled.
Wang Tuo and Tong Lin are in the same major and know a lot about him. It's strange today. The boss usually concentrates on his studies and work and rarely plays with his mobile phone. Why did he keep glancing at his mobile phone all afternoon while working.
You're still smiling a little silly now, maybe you don't want to fall in love! He thought endlessly.
Tong Lin stood up and patted his shoulder, "You've worked hard today. Go back to the dormitory! I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow."
Before leaving, Wang Tuo turned around and saw the boss lowering his head and clasping his cell phone.
[No need to reward him, just treat him to a meal.]
[Do you know each other?]
Gu Jin was a little surprised.
Then he sighed, Tong Lin deserves to be the president of the literary club, he is just talented himself, and the people he knows are so extraordinary.
[Well, do you want to treat me to dinner? ] he asked.
[OK! I don’t know when I will have time. ] Gu Jin responded readily.
After she agreed, she was still a little confused. She just sighed casually, why did the topic come to inviting the author to dinner
However, someone who can write such a good book must also be someone with a gap in his heart, and it is not a disadvantage to get to know him. Moreover. After the establishment of their magazine, they will definitely need to find someone to write for them. Isn't it great that they can grab someone in advance
[anytime.]
oh
It seems that Tong Lin is really familiar with the "Old Man of Mountains and Rivers", and he can even set a meal time for him.
Gu Jin thought about it for a while and asked:
[I’ve been a little busy these past few days. What do you think will happen in five days?]
The other side paused for a moment and said back:
[No problem, I already told him.]
…
The time for waiting for takeout seemed extremely long, so Gu Jin called Gu Xiaodi again.
Gu Teng took the initiative to call her, which was something Yuan Gu Jin couldn't even think of. But since his last trip home, Gu Teng seemed to have suddenly turned on some switch. He often exchanged messages with her on WeChat, and occasionally even made video calls.
The two siblings have a close relationship, and Gu's father and mother feel both happy and sad at the same time.
Gu Changsheng, in particular, has always been jealous of his son. But he was embarrassed to let a grown man who had been serious for decades go to express sticky condolences to his daughter.
Father's love is like a mountain, but he is always not good at expressing it.
"Hey, you finally remembered to call me back." Gu Teng's angry voice came over, and Gu Jin could imagine the curls on his forehead when he was having a blast.
Gu Teng had just finished his college entrance examination. He was like a bird that had escaped from its cage and was about to let himself go completely. These days, he would not go to bed before twelve o'clock every night.
Around nine o'clock is when he is full of energy.
She pursed her lips and smiled, not caring about his angry tone, "I forgot to turn on the volume on my phone. I was ordering takeout before I saw your phone number."
"Order takeout? Why haven't you eaten yet?" Gu Teng frowned and said angrily: "Why don't you eat well at a young age? Want to lose weight?"
Without waiting for Gu Jin to answer, he added: "With your appearance, you can't get married even if you lose weight. It's better to eat more and take good care of yourself. It will be easier for me to raise you in the future!"
Gu Jin put the phone away and took out his ears. I didn't realize that Gu Xiaodi still had the potential of being a mother-in-law.
But Saonian, you and I have the same father and mother, and we look very similar. I am ugly, so how can you see me better
Besides, have you ever seen anyone who is trying to lose weight eat late night snacks
Seeing that there was no sound on the other end of the phone, Gu Teng stopped and said, "Where is the person? Did you hear it?"
"Listen clearly, if you keep talking nonsense, my takeout will be cold." Gu Jin held the takeout in one hand and complained on his mobile phone in the other, "Brother, are you calling me at night just to accuse me of not eating?"
"...Stop being narcissistic." Gu Teng was speechless for a moment, and then said seriously: "Don't go home for the next few days if you have nothing to do. Don't come back even if the old man asks you to."
What he said was serious, Gu Jinxin asked, "Did something happen at home?"
"That greedy guy is coming."
When Gu Teng said the word "greedy ghost", Gu Jin understood.
Gu Jin and Gu Teng were the same year and had just finished the college entrance examination. Grandma Gu had long said she would come over, and now she naturally wanted to take Gu Ling to the Gu family.
"Well, I understand."
She rubbed her eyebrows. It was really not a pleasant thing to live under the same roof with someone who always imitates you and wants to compare with you.
After dinner, Gu Jin cleared the table and went to the bathroom to wash up. When she finished tidying up and lay on the bed, she felt like she had forgotten something
Set a time to turn off your phone and put it next to your bed.
Gu Jin thought: Women are older, they can't stay up late, and their memory is not good. It's common for women to forget something.
She also wants to attend the banquet beautifully.
For beauty care, going to bed early and getting up early is much more effective than skin care products.
In the VIP ward of the hospital, Shao Chong's expectant eyes dimmed little by little as the beeps from the phone came.
"Isn't anyone picking up yet?"
The assistant held the phone and replied anxiously: "Miss Gu may have fallen asleep..."
He himself was a bit speechless. From five o'clock in the afternoon to ten o'clock in the evening, he called more than twenty times in several hours, but the other party did not receive it.
Either there is something wrong with the phone, or... someone has blocked this phone number.
The assistant couldn't understand the thoughts of wealthy people like the boss.
When Miss Gu liked him before, he didn't care. Instead, he cared about his girlfriend's cousin. Miss Gu ignored him, and he started to look for someone again.
Isn't this mean
Shao Chong smiled. He called Gu Jin, but she never refused to answer. It seemed that she was busy with something.
She is so well-behaved, gentle, considerate, and does her best in everything she does.
It's just that I like to keep things in my mind and don't like to express my feelings in front of others.
If I remember correctly, they are currently dating. He couldn't remember anything about his relationship with Gu Jin in his previous life. But thinking about it, I don’t have many good memories.
In his previous life, he couldn't figure out his own feelings and ignored her. In the next life, I will seize the opportunity to make up for it, and truly I will only have Gu Jin in my eyes and heart.
No, they also need to add the children they have no chance to see.
He wanted to see her, but his parents were worried that his sudden fainting might be due to an underlying disease, so they stopped him and asked him to rest in the hospital for two more days.
Two days later, there was a banquet at the Jing family, and as Cheng Xin's good friend, she would definitely attend.
Just be patient and you can see her soon. Shao Chong covered his chest and took a long breath.
The author has something to say: Report to Mu Erba, there are many people who want to poach you.
