Chapter 61: The Great God is by my side
Lu Xiaorong didn't know that the news of her pregnancy had been known to Xu Hongying. She didn't know that Xu Hongying had already walked towards Shen Lin's house in a rage.
At this time, Lu Xiaorong was sitting on a stone block, looking at the letter he received in the message room when he entered the factory.
The letter was sent by Science Fiction World magazine. In addition to a letter announcing that her work had been adopted, it also contained a remittance slip and the latest issue of Science Fiction World magazine.
In the past, Lu Xiaorong often read Science Fiction World magazine, but this time, she really didn’t expect that her work could be published in Science Fiction World.
Looking at the first page of Science Fiction World and the four big words "The Wandering Earth", Lu Xiaorong's heart was still a little dazed.
She knew very well that if it was just about writing style, her writing would never be published in such a magazine.
Now, the reason why this science fiction world published this article is entirely because of the story Shen Lin provided to itself.
Author, Shen Lin, Lu Xiaorong!
Looking at the two names listed side by side, a smile appeared on Lu Xiaorong's face.
The bad mood caused by the work adjustment has completely disappeared at this moment.
The contents on the remittance slip also made Lu Xiaorong feel happy from the bottom of his heart.
Four hundred and sixty-two yuan!
The payment is based on 20 yuan per thousand words!
The Wandering Earth, which has more than 20,000 words, earned me 462 yuan!
Although Shen Lin had already earned a lot of money, these 462 yuan still made Lu Xiaorong feel extremely happy in his heart.
Not only was this equal to her annual salary, but what made her even happier was that she earned the money herself.
Wouldn't it be better if I were a writer myself?
Lu Xiaorong quickly put aside this thought. As a novel lover since childhood, she had dreamed of becoming a writer more than once.
When she had just graduated, she had worked hard in this direction, but unfortunately, all the manuscripts she submitted ended up being ignored without any success.
This is also the reason why Lu Xiaorong finally gave up his dream of becoming a writer.
After reading The Wandering Earth in the magazine, Lu Xiaorong felt much better. The depression of being assigned to the boiler room also disappeared at this moment.
But at this moment, she still felt a little hesitant in her heart. She didn't know what to do next about this matter.
If I can keep writing, I don’t have to work.
Thinking about making a living from her beloved writing, Lu Xiaorong suddenly lost confidence. She knew very well that in The Wandering Earth, she was just a helper.
The most important person is Shen Lin.
"Xiaorong, I finally found you. You...you should go and take a look quickly. Director Luo said that your mother went to see the old factory director." Xiao Li, a co-worker who came over, said breathlessly.
Looking at the sweat on the young worker's head, Lu Xiaorong didn't even bother to say thank you. Her heart skipped a beat.
His mother ran to find his father-in-law. This incident was a bolt from the blue for Lu Xiaorong.
She knew her mother's character very well. Now that her mother was going to find her father-in-law, there was definitely going to be a problem.
Thinking of his father-in-law's health, Lu Xiaorong didn't care about anything else and quickly ran towards the family compound.
The young worker surnamed Li said to Lu Xiaorong "Be careful!" and sat on the stone and began to breathe. At this time, he saw the envelope and the Science Fiction World magazine that Lu Xiaorong had placed on the stone.
"The latest issue of Science Fiction World!" Li Yutong himself is also a science fiction fan. He buys and reads almost every issue of Science Fiction World magazine.
According to his experience, it would take at least the 10th of this month for Science Fiction World to be released in their city.
In other words, there are still eight days left!
But now, Lu Xiaorong actually has the latest issue of Science Fiction World in his hands. This... this is really incredible.
Could it be that Lu Xiaorong had someone send it from Xichuan?
With thoughts churning in his mind, Li Yutong opened the magazine out of habit. No matter what, since the magazine fell into his hands, he would finish reading it first.
Anyway, it was Luo Youcai who let him out, so if he came back a little later, Luo Youcai would not do anything to him.
But when he opened the first page of the science fiction magazine and saw the author's name under the four titles of The Wandering Earth, he was completely stunned.
Shen Lin, Lu Xiaorong!
What the two of them wrote actually made it to the science fiction world!
The sci-fi master is actually next to me!
How is this possible? This... This can't be true. Although Shen Lin and Lu Xiaorong's names may overlap, putting these two familiar names together as authors can only happen to this couple.
I need to take a good look at what they both wrote.
Li Yutong opened the first page of the book and began to read it with anticipation. Once he read it, he was completely immersed in it .
The Earth began to leave its original orbit, and a centrifuge was added to the Earth...
Lu Xiaorong completely forgot about the magazine and hurried towards the old residential compound one kilometer away from the factory.
As the old director of the factory, Shen Lin's father lived in the old family quarters of the factory, a first-floor courtyard with three bedrooms and two living rooms.
Originally, Shen Lin's father wanted him and Shen Lin to live at home, but at that time Shen Lin didn't want to live with his parents anymore, so he insisted on moving out.
There was no other choice, Lu Xiaorong had to move out with Shen Lin.
Because Shen Lin had not been doing a proper job in the past, Lu Xiaorong had very little time to visit his parents-in-law. However, deep down, Lu Xiaorong respected his father-in-law very much.
When Lu Xiaorong hurried over, he saw that many workers who were off work were already standing in the small courtyard on the first floor of his father-in-law's house, and some were even pointing and talking there.
Seeing Lu Xiaorong coming in, many people showed a strange look on their faces. However, these people still automatically made way for Lu Xiaorong.
In the yard, Shen Xingye, who was a little frail, was lying dejectedly on a chair placed on the grape trellis. At this time, the voice of her mother Xu Hongying came over with a harsh tone.
"Old Factory Director, I didn't want to talk about what happened today, but now, I have to say it!"
"Do you know that my daughter, your daughter-in-law Lu Xiaorong, has been assigned to the boiler room?"
"Old Factory Director, I married my daughter to your Shen family because I hope he can live a good life. But look at what your son is like. Can she give our Xiaorong a good life?"
"Marry a man, and you'll have clothes to wear and food to eat. Now, not only do you not have enough to eat and clothes to wear, but you're also suffering from this kind of trouble. Tell me, should I come over and talk to you about this matter?"
Just when Xu Hongying was talking excitedly, a woman who looked to be in her sixties came out of the house with a glass of water and handed it to Xu Hongying with both hands.
But before she could say anything, Xu Hongying waved her hand and the cup fell to the ground.
