Make a Fortune and Become Well-off [90] - Chapter 63
The girls in dormitory 610 were no exception. In fact, there were very few nerds who really relied entirely on studying.
After Jiang Ning came back from washing, they asked her curiously, “Jiang Ning, have you finished reading the two martial arts books on your bed?”
“I haven’t finished reading them, what’s wrong?”
When Jiang Ning said that she hadn’t, the girl who wanted to borrow it felt embarrassed. “It’s okay. If you finish reading, can you lend it to me?” She took out a Reader digest from under her pillow, “We can exchange.”
Jiang Ning did not take the Reader she handed over, but directly took out the Reader Youth Digest, Martial Arts, Yangtze River Literature, Science Fiction World, and other magazines that she had bought before and prepared to submit novels in the right style from under her bed. She turned them all out and put them on the bedroom desk.
She didn’t throw them away as she might still need them to submit.
Since she had signed a contract with a martial arts magazine and was busy writing Catcher in Song Dynasty, she had no time to write anything else. But once she finishes the book, or wanted to write a short story in the middle, she would need them again.
Moreover, Jiang Ning was a person with a strong desire for expression. She had told herself since she was a child not to be a nagging and thankless person like Mother Jiang. She had not spoken much since she was a child, but not speaking did not mean that she had no desire to express, but it was self-control. So how could she vent her desires for expression that she needed to talk about?
She could do that by writing.
She put all her desire for expression into her works.
The reason why she could still keep writing after working was actually caused by her desire for expression because her work required her to be silent and keep her mouth shut.
Some people said that writing was the embodiment of the desire to express themselves.
Jiang Ning agreed, and she was a very expressive person.
Her strong desire for expression also meant that she had a strong desire to write and a steady stream of inspiration.
She might see a flower, a tree, a blue sky, a clear lake, or even read a poem, an article, or see a story or person in life, and get all kinds of inspiration.
The little girls in the dormitory didn’t expect that Jiang Ning actually had so much inventory. Several of them got up from the bed and went to the desk to look through it under the dim light of the corridor.
“Jiang Ning, where did you get so many magazines?” They turned to look at Jiang Ning in amazement.
They were not very interested in Bosom Friends, but they all liked to read Readers and Youth Digest.
What Jiang Ning didn’t know was that readers of Youth Digest had sent her sample magazines after she left the village, and they were all piled up at the brigade headquarters.
Although the people at the brigade headquarters didn’t know who sent it, they wouldn’t open other people’s letters casually. They just kept piling them in the cardboard boxes in the corner with no one paying attention.
Maybe in half a year or a year or two, someone would open it and see what’s inside.
At that moment, Mother Jiang, who had been idle for more than half a month because Jiang Song was unwilling to repeat his studies, finally remembered that Jiang Ning had been moving bricks in the kiln for almost a month.
It was time to get wages.
Naturally, she would not let Jiang Ning get the salary. She cheered up and hurried to her sister’s house. It was still very hot in September.
Seeing that her sister was not at home, she rushed to the kiln factory. She originally wanted her sister to collect Jiang Ning’s salary for her, but then she could just go herself and collect it directly, saving Jiang Ning, a little girl, from spending her salary indiscriminately.
Summer was already hot, and the temperature in the kiln was three points hotter than other places. Even though she was wearing an apron and protective sleeves, Wang Ailan still got dusty.
She was eight years younger than Mother Jiang and had been raised by her since she was a child. She respected her eldest sister very much. When she heard that her sister was coming, she wiped the sweat on her face with a towel, “Sister, what do you want to see me for? Didn’t you ask Ning Ning to come over and move the bricks? Why didn’t she come?”
“She didn’t come?” Mother Jiang’s voice suddenly rose.
“Well, she did not come here. I was thinking of finding a rainy day to go ask you about the situation. It hasn’t rained these days, and I can’t find anyone to send a message.” Wang Ailan and Wang Lan looked completely different. Wang Ailian looked like her mother. Although she was taller and stronger, her facial features were strong and resolute. Wang Ailan was like her father, with a soft face. They were obviously sisters, but one’s nose was as tall as a mountain and the other had a flat nose.
She took off her, then said as she walked, “I didn’t know you’re coming. There’s nothing to eat at home. Come on, I’ll take you to eat something on the street.”
The street she was talking about was the street in the town hall of her hometown. It was a four-way intersection. There were many fruit stalls, noodle stalls, breakfast stalls, etc. at the intersection, which was very lively.
Mother Jiang said disgustedly, “No need. I came here after breakfast, so I won’t eat those things.”
The food was not delicious, and it was also expensive.
She thought of Jiang Ning’s craftsmanship and refused, “You go about your business, I’m here to see Ning Ning.”
“Ning Ning didn’t come,” Aunt Wang Ailan said, “I haven’t seen her even once.”
Wang Lan gritted her teeth angrily and said, “I don’t know where this little brat has gone. When I find her, I’ll pull out all her hair.”
Mother Jiang didn’t have an outlet to vent her anger when Jiang Song disobeyed and didn’t want to study but suddenly found a place to vent her anger.
Wang Ailan was a little puzzled as to why her eldest sister was so angry and said, “If Ning Ning doesn’t want to work, let her do as she wishes. Why should you make such a big fuss? How old is she? How can she do the work in the kiln? Let her study. After studying for so many years, it would be great for her to find a clerical job at the brigade headquarters.”
Wang Ailan gave birth to a son and a daughter. The son was eight years old and the daughter was five years old. She usually treated the two children the same way. She moved bricks every day and had no time to take care of the children. The elder brother was told to take care of his sister.
Mother Jiang said angrily, “This girl is too courageous. I want her to move bricks at your place, but she hasn’t come at all. She hasn’t been at home these days. She has gone to fool around somewhere. What if she runs away with someone?”
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.
The girl had been raised for so long, and she was about to earn money and get married. If she runs away at this time, raising her for so many years would be a waste.
