Chapter 62 Maggie's Gift
“…”
Lin Yuan's answer once shattered some of Huang Benyu's long-term understanding, but when he thought that there was a more terrifying Gu Xi in the school, he suddenly felt relieved.
This is a good thing.
This shows that our school is full of talents.
In fact, without professional ears like Huang Benyu, you will definitely not be able to appreciate how mature Lin Yuan’s skills are. The students in the class can only come to a very different conclusion, which is-
Lin Yuan is very good at playing the piano.
However, after Lin Yuan showed off a song, Huang Benyu did not say such a large-scale and indiscriminate attack, "I'm not targeting anyone, I mean everyone here."
In the next piano class, Huang Benyu's speech was prefixed with a routine prefix:
"Except for Lin Yuan, you must remember this knowledge point."
"Apart from Lin Yuan, I believe no one else will understand why we do this here."
"Except for Lin Yuan, everyone should practice this song well after class, especially the last part."
"Except for Lin Yuan..."
Anyway, after a piano class, the six words "except Lin Yuan" almost became Huang Benyu's catchphrase.
Perhaps Huang Benyu had hope in his heart that Lin Yuan would better not take piano lessons like Gu Xi.
He is willing to give credits!
Lin Yuan's peaceful campus life will not change just because he showed off his skills in piano class.
If you insist on saying that there are any changes, it is probably that he is more popular in the class.
Too.
He has poor health, good personality, handsome appearance, hard-working study, and good piano playing. It is hard for anyone to hate such excellent and good-person students.
actually.
When Lin Yuan first transferred to the composition department, his classmates thought Lin Yuan was very cold, but after everyone came into contact with him, no one felt that Lin Yuan was cold again—
Less talking and aloofness are two different concepts. This boy just doesn’t like to talk.
The days to come.
Lin Yuan was as unspeakable as ever and studied hard as ever. His professional grades have completely kept pace with the progress and are no longer affected by the sudden change of his sophomore year.
And in such a peaceful day, March came unknowingly.
At this time when it is still cold, the weather in March is still so cold that people don’t want to get out of bed easily.
At this time, the atmosphere of the New Year is gradually fading.
The latest issue of "Net King" is still released and has a gratifying sales.
Also published on March 1st are Chu Kuang’s new works published in the magazine “Fun”—
The short story "Maggie's Gift".
On this day, Lin Yuan also received several sample magazines sent by Yinlan Bookstore for free.
Defining a sample magazine is a newspaper or magazine that publishes the author's works after the author's work is published, and providing a sample magazine is the obligation of the newspaper and magazine agency to the author.
Get the sample magazine of "QuDu".
When Lin Yuan saw that "Maggie's Gift" was placed on the most prominent publicity position on the cover of the magazine, the four big words "Chu Kuang's new work" suddenly came into view.
This represents the editors' emphasis on this story.
However, the promotion effect of "Chu Kuang's new work" is actually not very good, because users who like to buy "Qu Du" magazine do not overlap with those readers who like youth fantasy.
After all, Chu Kuang became famous by his youth fantasy.
If you are not interested in youth fantasy, some buyers of "Quan Reading" don't even know who Chu Kuang is, but when you see the cover promotion, many people will look forward to the story of this cover promotion.
...
Han Jimei is the tribal literature operation officer, that is, the person in charge of the tribal literature section. Her future goal and work task is to build the tribal literature section into a fragmented leisure base that allows users to develop habits.
As a beloved woman, she likes her job very much and has the habit of subscribing to some magazines every month.
Qinzhou best-selling magazines are all very high-quality.
There are always many excellent short stories published on it.
It’s not that Han Jimei doesn’t like long stories, but for a professional woman like her who is busy with work, the time required for long stories is really luxurious. Because the short story is short, it won’t waste too much time.
Today is early March.
There are new days for various books, so Han Jimei, the magazine this month alone, bought a total of six books, but the first thing that attracted her attention was the latest issue of the best-selling magazine "Qu Du".
It’s not that she likes Fun Reading.
But because the cover of this magazine actually promotes Chu Kuang's new work.
You should know that last month Chu Kuang wrote a short story with a very good response in tribal literature.
The story called "Artificial Beauty" was really cleverly conceived and was a rare masterpiece.
Han Jimei was originally expecting Chu Kuang to write some new short stories in the literary section of the tribe, but unexpectedly, Chu Kuang has completely transferred his position and has gone to the serialization of "Quan Du".
"Look at what you wrote this time."
Although he felt a pity that Chu Kuang did not continue to choose a tribe as a publishing platform, Han Jimei was still curious about what Chu Kuang wrote this new work this time.
Just go through the first few short stories.
Han Jimei first reads "Maggie's Gift".
Many people may not understand what "Maggie's Gift" means, and they think that the protagonist of the story will be called Maggie. However, as a reader with a high volume, Han Jimei knows that most of the protagonists of the story are not called Maggie-
This is related to Weizhou's Christmas legend.
There is also Christmas in Qinzhou, but Christmas is not a mainstream festival in Qinzhou, and there is even no holiday. People in Qinzhou are more just looking for fun about this festival.
Weizhou is different.
They had the habit of celebrating Christmas, and many people believed in Christ. Legend has it that when Jesus was born, three wise wise men sent gifts, and from then on, they had the custom of giving gifts to each other on Christmas—
This should be the origin of the title.
At this time, Han Jimei began: [Tomorrow is Christmas, and Mrs. A only costs three yuan and 80 cents to buy a gift for her husband. She obviously saved up for several months and saved up all the things she could save, but this was the only result.]
He actually called Mrs. A?
Chu Kuang was too lazy to name.
Han Jimei complained in her heart, but she understood the first expression of the story.
This is a woman with a difficult life. She is counting the few change she has in her hands over and over again, worrying about what gifts she will give her husband tomorrow on Christmas.
The story background should have been many years ago.
The value of the currency was still very high at that time.
But obviously three yuan and eight cents are not much.
[She suddenly turned around from the window and stood in front of the wall mirror and looked at herself inside. At this moment, her eyes were bright and bright, but her face was lost in twenty seconds. She quickly untied her hair and let it fall down.]
What is she going to do?
Han Jimei guessed Mrs. A's intention.
She was experienced and even had some exaggerated associations, such as Mrs. A sold her body to exchange for money, but the first customer she met was her husband.
It’s not that Han Jimei’s thoughts are unhealthy.
In some special times, it is not uncommon for some people to sell their bodies for life. Chu Kuang may want to restore the cruel side of that era, but if it is just for Christmas gifts...
Is the reason too far-fetched?
