He was excited not because "The Legend of Shushan" was sold at a high price, but because he solved the problem of food shortage at home through this matter, which made him full of confidence in the future road full of thorns. At this time, not only was he not afraid to see Yan Song and Xu Jie, but his heart was full of expectations.

"Brother Xin, I'm really convinced for my brother. Not only are you good at reading, but you are also so capable of making money. ”

The corners of Luo Xin's mouth showed a wry smile: "This is all forced by the food shortage." ”

The two of them talked and laughed, and then returned to Zhou Yu's house, and when they passed by the door of Zhou Tingyu's study, Zhou Tingyu saw the two of them through the window, and beckoned the two of them in. Luo Xin carried a blanket and followed Zhou Yu into the study. Zhou Tingyu's eyes fell on Luo Xin's coat, and he couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Xin'er, what is this?"

Before Luo Xin could speak, Zhou Yu over there said the matter again. Then he stood there waiting for his father to praise Luo Xin, but he didn't expect Zhou Tingyu's face to be gloomy, and he glared at Luo Xin and said:

"What Haode said is true?"

"Yes, father-in-law." Zhou Tingyu's face made Luo Xin cautious.

"So, you still have dozens of books to write?" Zhou Tingyu's eyes were already angry.

"Yes...... Father-in-law! ”

"Smack!" Zhou Tingyu slapped the table hard and shouted, "Don't you know that you will participate in the scientific examination in February next year?" ”

"Yes!" Luo Xin whispered.

"Do you know what is the most important thing for you right now?"

"Yes!" Luo Xin lowered his head.

"You know you still write that book? You are going to be admitted to the Jinshi in the future, how can you focus on the trail at such a critical moment? Only the imperial examination is the avenue, so what if you make a lot of money by writing a book? Do you want to be a writer for the rest of your life? ”

Zhou Tingyu pointed at Luo Xin with hatred: "Confused, you! There are less than ten months to go to the scientific examination, but you waste precious time to write a script, if you fail because of this. You will regret it for the rest of your life. You're destroying your future! ”

As he spoke, Zhou Tingyu stood up excitedly, turned out from behind the desk, stood in front of Luo Xin, and sprayed Luo Xin in the face.

"I thought you were a sensible child, smart. Work hard, work hard, how can you do such a self-destructive thing?

Don't think that you won the battle for water, don't think that others call you a prodigy, you are really a prodigy. There are tens of thousands of people reading in the world, and there are countless young heroes. You're going to waste the rest of your months on that book...... What's going on? ”

"Legend of Shushan!" Luo Xin said weakly.

"You're just wasting your time on that Broken Shu Mountain Biography? Even if you are a child prodigy, you can pass the imperial examination. But did you know that this kind of reader who writes a book is despised by Shilin? Will it have a detrimental impact on your career? ”

Listening to Zhou Tingyu roaring there, Luo knew in confidence that this was Zhou Tingyu for his good and anxious for him. So when Zhou Tingyu was angry, he couldn't explain it, and he could only explain it when Zhou Tingyu finished his fire.

But Zhou Yu is also a clever person, the moment his father gets angry. He quickly closed the doors and windows. And his actions were also clearly seen by Zhou Tingyu, so Zhou Tingyu could not hide the disappointment and anger in his heart. But he was just a low roar, which roared for a full quarter of an hour, and his tired throat was hoarse, his breathing was uneven, and he was sweating on his forehead, and his emotions were almost vented. Only then did he return to the table and sit down, his eyes still disappointed and angry as he glared at Luo Xin. Zhou Yu watched his father look at the angry bull on the side, while Luo Xin stood there with his head bowed with an aggrieved look, and explained in a low voice:

"Father, isn't there a food shortage at home? That's why I want to make some money to solve the food shortage. ”

"Smack!" Zhou Tingyu, who had already vented his emotions almost to the fullest, became popular again. Slammed the table and shouted:

"Will there be a food shortage in my son's house? I, Lu Weng, Zhang Shu, the three of us will make Luo Xin's family have a food shortage? And ......"

Zhou Tingyu stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhou Yu and said, "As the eldest brother, don't you know that you care about Luo Xin?" Don't you know that the grain was delivered to Luo Xin's house early? This is your immorality as a big brother! You...... You...... Not my son! ”

"I ......" Zhou Yu was also aggrieved: "I told Brother Xin that I wanted to send food, but Brother Xin said that I didn't need to ......"

Luo Xin knew that he couldn't let the father and son fight any longer, so he hurriedly spoke: "Father-in-law, I didn't do this completely for the sake of food shortage. ”

"Huh?" Zhou Tingyu's expression was stunned, and Zhou Yu also turned his head to look at Luo Xin. Luo Xin said softly:

"Father-in-law, I know that on the surface there will be a food shortage in my family soon. However, in reality, this problem does not exist at all. Neither the two stepfathers nor my teacher would have watched Xin'er starve to death. ”

Hearing Luo Xin say this, Zhou Tingyu's face softened slightly. If Luo Xin would rather starve himself than come to him to get food, he would be very disappointed in his heart. He is none other than Luo Xin's stepfather. Seeing that Zhou Tingyu's face was slightly softened, Luo Xin continued to say softly:

"Father-in-law, you also know that my teacher was dismissed because he offended Yan Song, and in the future, when he enters the officialdom, Yan Song will definitely embarrass me in many ways. So I took this food shortage at home as a test for me. If I can solve this problem independently, then when I face Yan Song in the future, I will have more confidence, I will think that as long as I am willing to work hard, I will definitely come up with a solution to the problem, if I don't come up with a solution to the problem in the end, I have to come to my father-in-law to get food, although it also solves the problem of food shortage at home, but Xin'er is afraid that she will lose confidence in the future officialdom. Fortunately, Xin'er solved this problem through her own efforts, which made Xin'er more determined to enter the officialdom. ”

Seeing that Zhou Tingyu was about to speak again, Luo Xin hurriedly said: "As for the dozens of books left, I naturally won't write "The Biography of Shushan" every day without reading. Anyway, I have to practice writing every day, so I use the time to write that book. This will not delay my time in reading. Anyway, Champion Bookstore didn't want to print and sell all the books at once, so what money would they make? They will definitely publish one volume at a time, and there will be a long time between each volume, and he will not publish a second volume if he does not squeeze out the profits of each volume, so Xin'er just uses the time to practice calligraphy to write "The Biography of Shushan". ”
