Although her grandfather and father didn't say anything excessive because she was a girl, their usual attitude made her understand that they actually wanted a grandson and a son.
Grandma was nice to her.
Apart from her grandmother, her third aunt and cousin were the ones who treated her best.
Ning Jiali knew that even if she was admitted to university, her mother would not buy her a computer or a mobile phone.
With such a comparison, how could she not be moved
Ning Jiali threw herself into Xu Xiuwen's arms with tears in her eyes, put her arms around Xu Xiuwen's neck, hung herself on him, and buried her head in his chest.
Xu Xiuwen was shocked by his actions.
He quickly advised: "Lili, let go quickly, this is inappropriate!"
Upon hearing this, Lili let go obediently.
She looked up at Xu Xiuwen and said with tears in her eyes, "Cousin, you are so kind."
Xu Xiuwen smiled and said, "Okay, stop crying. Why didn't I realize you have the potential to be a crybaby?"
Hearing this, Ning Jiali wiped away her tears and retorted, "I'm not a crybaby."
Xu Xiuwen rubbed her head and said, "It's getting late. You should go back to bed early."
Ning Jiali nodded, turned around and walked outside. After a few steps, she suddenly stopped and said to Xu Xiuwen, "Cousin, close your eyes?"
"Hmm? What are you doing?"
"Hey, close your eyes."
Xu Xiuwen was very confused, but he still closed his eyes obediently.
A fragrant breeze blew over.
The next second, his left cheek became wet.
Xu Xiuwen immediately opened his eyes and stared at Ning Jiali in surprise.
Ning Jiali didn't explain.
She smiled faintly at Xu Xiuwen, waved and said, "Good night, cousin."
After saying that, he walked out of the house.
Ning Jiali left happily.
Xu Xiuwen stroked his forehead and sighed!
If Ning Jiali treats him as a brother, it’s okay, but if she wants to go astray, that’s absolutely not allowed
Xu Xiuwen decided to minimize physical contact with Ning Jiali in the future.
Fortunately, he will go home after the second day of the Chinese New Year.
If my cousin can get into college, the next time we will see each other will be when she starts school in September.
In the blink of an eye, it was the third day of the New Year.
Early in the morning, Xu Xiuwen and Ning Wanqiu got up, packed their luggage and prepared to go home.
In previous years, when Ning Wanqiu went back home on this day, she would at most bring back a bag of rice.
Today is different from the past.
My aunt gave four old hens and my second aunt gave a basket of salted pork ribs. It was said that they only pickled two baskets at home and they couldn't bear to eat them themselves.
My aunt gave two ducks and two geese.
Even my usually stingy aunt gave me a jar of freshly pickled cabbage.
So, as long as the money is in place, there is no relationship in this world that cannot be managed well.
Before leaving, everyone in the family came out to see him off.
Cousin Ning Jiali's eyes turned red.
Under the gaze of his relatives, Xu Xiuwen drove away.
On the way home, Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but ask, "Mom, how much New Year's money did you give me this year?"
"The two youngest children in your aunt's family are 500 each, and the others are 1,000 each."
Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but shook his head and said, "You are really generous. You don't feel bad about giving out New Year's money."
Ning Wanqiu sighed, "Their family conditions are not good, so I'll help them if I can. Anyway, my son can make money, so he doesn't care about this little money."
"That's right. I, your son, may be making money now. You can just wait and enjoy a comfortable life in the future."
…
When I got home, it was not yet 11 o'clock.
Ning Wanqiu started killing chickens and ducks.
Xu Xiuwen originally wanted to help, but Ning Wanqiu felt that he was tired from driving, so she asked him to go back to his room to rest and she would do it herself.
After Xu Xiuwen returned to his room, he turned on his computer and logged into Penguin.
He first took a look at the group and found that the group was chatting enthusiastically!
Xu Xiuwen now has a total of 10 book clubs, and each group is full.
At this time, messages kept flashing in these 10 book clubs.
Xu Xiuwen took a closer look and found that they were discussing "Boys Over Flowers" which was being broadcasted by the Jiangsu Provincial TV Station.
He notified everyone in the group before the TV series was broadcast.
Every book friend in the group said that they would definitely stay in front of the TV to support the drama.
Afterwards the TV series premiered.
The book lovers in the group were very pleasantly surprised to find that the remake of the TV series was highly faithful to the original.
And most importantly, the leading male role played by Dada himself is so handsome.
There were already many fans of Xu Xiuwen’s looks in the group, and now they are even more obsessed with his good looks.
Many female book friends no longer call him "Dada", but simply call him "husband" instead.
Xu Xiuwen looked at the chat for a while and typed a reply: "This drama is not produced by a big company, so it may not be so exquisite. I wonder if you like it?"
Xu Xiuwen’s appearance immediately made the group lively!
"like!"
“I love it!”
"My husband is so handsome!"
…
All kinds of praise and recognition directly flooded the screen.
The message was like a shooting star, and was covered by the next message in the blink of an eye.
Xu Xiuwen typed a reply: "As long as you like it, I am planning to publish my fourth book, which is an alternate history novel. I hope you can support me."
"Support, definitely support!"
“I’ll be the first to support it!”
“I’m really looking forward to my husband’s new work!”
Which author would not like a book friend like this
Those who criticize the author all day long are doing nothing but breaking the author's faith.
Xu Xiuwen typed: "You guys chat, I'm going to log off first."
“Ah, no!”
"Hubby, don't go!"
"husband… "
The screen is full of husbands.
Faced with the female book friend's attempt to retain him, Xu Xiuwen smiled and closed the Penguin group.
Some fanatical book lovers have gone to the comment section of Xu Xiuwen’s previous novels and actively promoted his new book.
For a time, the entire Jinjiang author circle was stirred up.
The authors are more worried that they will be crushed if they are in the same period as Xu Xiuwen.
Readers are very much looking forward to it.
Xu Xiuwen did not disappoint them.
The first chapter of "Nirvana in Fire" was published that night. It was not long, only 3,000 words.
But the comments in the book club are increasing at an explosive rate.
But that’s all in the past.
Xu Xiuwen closed the Penguin group and was about to type when he suddenly saw a familiar avatar jumping in the Penguin column.
