All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Yue Hongrui feels that these two specialties of his are very ordinary, and he is not wrong. He can speak Mandarin better and his composition scores are higher. There is really nothing to brag about.

Yue Wenxuan just asked casually and didn't have much expectations. This world is originally populated by ordinary people, and most people are just one of the ordinary beings with no special abilities.

It is very rare that my nephew can casually mention two of his strengths.

Regardless of whether you speak Mandarin well or have good composition scores, if you are just a little more outstanding than the average person, it does not have much advantage, but if you can be much more outstanding, it is also a great specialty.

The level of Mandarin is the easiest to test. Yue Wenxuan took a newspaper and said to Yue Hongrui: "You can choose an article from it and read it, and I will listen to how your Mandarin level is."

Yue Hongrui was still a little confident in his Mandarin skills. After receiving it, he first browsed it roughly, then selected an article that was not very long and began to read it aloud.

After listening to a few sentences, Yue Wenxuan had a clear understanding of Hong Rui's Mandarin skills. His Mandarin level is indeed very good, and he is very outstanding among ordinary people, but if compared with professional announcers, there is still a big gap.

With such a level of Mandarin, if you have the opportunity to compete with others for a job as an announcer, you will be quite competitive. But without a position, it is almost impossible to use this ability to find a job as an announcer.

Yue Wenxuan is also a little annoyed that he has not been able to find a suitable job for his nephew. This matter is always on his mind. It is better to resolve this matter as soon as possible to avoid always thinking about it.

Yue Hongrui's personal ability is not enough to carve out a way for himself without a job quota, but with Yue Wenxuan's help, he might have this opportunity.

If he wanted to further improve his broadcasting level, Yue Wenxuan had the ability to guide him, but it might take a long time. Yue Wenxuan didn't have the patience, so he didn't consider it.

If Yue Wenxuan wants to help Yue Hongrui, he can only work on his writing ability.

No matter what Yue Hongrui's writing foundation is, it will undoubtedly take longer to further improve his writing ability, but if it is just to help him revise the articles he has already written, it will be simple.

Yue Wenxuan planned to ask Yue Hongrui to send his revised article to a major newspaper in his own name. As long as it could be published smoothly, two or three articles would be used as a stepping stone to find a suitable newspaper for him. Work, hope should still be great.

After making the plan, Yue Wenxuan said to Yue Hongrui: "I have a lot of newspapers at home. I will find you a few articles and you can study them yourself first.

Then I will give you a topic, you write it referring to the newspaper article, and I will see how your writing level is. "

Yue Hongrui thought this was a test given to him by the uncle, so he didn't think much about it and just followed the uncle's request.

The topic given to him by Yue Wenxuan was "A Vegetable Garden Full of Hope." After reading several sample essays, Yue Hongrui wrote a thousand-word article in just one hour.

After Yue Wenxuan read the entire article, he was very happy. His nephew did not lie, and his article was actually well written. As long as he makes a few modifications, it will be published in major newspapers in the province at the level of this article.

Yue Wenxuan decided to strike while the iron was hot and gave him another topic and asked him to write another article. Of course, Yue Wenxuan would not embarrass his nephew. The topic must be consistent with Yue Hongrui's personal experience, so that he can write a meaningful article.

This time, the topic he asked was "A College Entrance Examination Student's Vision for the Future."

Yue Hongrui had just finished the college entrance examination, and this question particularly suited his state of mind. It only took him more than half an hour to complete it in one go.

After Yue Wenxuan read it, he nodded, praised him a few words, and made corrections for him word by word.

Although the two articles written by Yue Hongrui are quite good, they are still not good enough to be published in newspapers. But with Yue Wenxuan's modifications, the situation is different.

After the revision was completed, Yue Wenxuan said to Yue Hongrui: "Copy these two articles again. After copying them, send them directly to the Eastern Province Daily. The address should be the village address."

"If we really want to send it to the "Eastern Province Daily", can it be published? Should we set a smaller target, such as sending it to the "Quancheng Evening News", so we can be more certain?"

Although Yue Hongrui also felt that his two articles read at a very high level after being revised by the uncle, he knew that the uncle had not been engaged in writing work before, and he still had no confidence that these two articles could be directly published in newspapers.

“You can give it a try. Even if it’s not adopted, it’s just a waste of a stamp, not a big loss.

If it does get published in the newspaper, based on these two articles, it shouldn't be a problem for you to find an ideal job. "Yue Wenxuan made his words very clear.

Speaking of finding a job, Yue Hongrui was very excited, but he still smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle, even if these two articles are accepted, they are not written by me. This is not my true level. Isn't this appropriate?"

"Why is it not your true level? The main body of these two articles was still written by you, I just revised it for you.

If you still need to submit a manuscript to the provincial newspaper after joining the work, I can continue to revise it for you. When your actual level improves, you won't need my help. "

Yue Hongrui was very moved, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Yue Wenxuan urged: "While it's still early, you should go to the post office and mail these two articles now.

After my revision, we still don’t know whether these two articles will be accepted. We’ll discuss the rest after they are published. "

After all, Yue Hongrui was just a kid who had just graduated from high school. Under Yue Wenxuan's tough attitude, he could only obey orders.

After sending these two articles in an anxious mood, he returned home again.

Yue Wenxuan took out a pile of newspapers and stuffed them all into his hands, "Today you have only one task - read the newspapers carefully and carefully study how the articles in the newspapers are written. The more you read, the more There will be some gains.”

In this way, Yue Hongrui had a sumptuous lunch at the uncle's house, and then read the newspaper seriously. It was not until evening that Yue Wenxuan let him go.

After the article is submitted, Yue Wenxuan will know the result immediately as long as he pays more attention to the provincial newspaper whether it has been accepted.

As expected, things went smoothly. One day later, Yue Wenxuan read the two articles he had revised in the provincial newspaper. Yue Hongrui's news was still lagging behind. It was not until he received the royalties from the provincial newspaper a week later that he learned the outcome of the matter.

During this period of time, Yue Hongrui lived a very miserable life. Every day he looked forward to receiving the news that the article was included in the provincial newspaper, and he would always fantasize uncontrollably about the beautiful scene after the article was published.

Letters from the village are always delivered to the brigade headquarters by the postman first. Before Yue Hongrui could walk home after getting the receipt, the news of his article published in the provincial newspaper had spread throughout the village.

After learning the news, apart from Yue Hongrui himself, the most excited people were his parents and the whole family.

For the first time, Yue Wenlong opened a box of "Big Chicken" cigarettes given to him by his elder brother, took out one with trembling fingers, took a deep breath, and said:

"Hongrui, you're doing a good job. You've given our family a sigh of relief. You can write articles that can be published in the provincial newspaper. This is not an ordinary skill. Even our commune has never produced such a capable person. , these years of reading are really not in vain, Dad is proud of you. "

"Dad, please stop praising me. I'm so embarrassed." Although Yue Hongrui was very happy, his mind was still clear. "The publication of these two articles is mainly due to my uncle. If it weren't for his careful revision, I wouldn't be able to do it." Not so capable."

Yue Wenlong knew that his eldest brother revised his son's article. After Yue Hongrui returned home, he told the story exactly.

Yue Wenlong also knew that the credit mainly belonged to his eldest brother, but he was still very happy, "Your uncle is not an outsider, he is your own uncle, so there is no shame in him revising your article.

In the future, you should learn more from your uncle. Your uncle has already said that he is willing to give you guidance. What else do you have to worry about.

Just keep your composition score low. You also like to write. Since your uncle has the ability to guide you and get your article published in the provincial newspaper, this is your opportunity.

I also know that writing articles is not an easy task. If you ask others for advice, they may not have the patience, but you certainly won’t. As long as you ask for advice humbly, why are you afraid that your uncle won't teach you?

Under your uncle's guidance, you will definitely make progress. I believe that sooner or later you will be able to write good articles based on your own abilities and publish them in the provincial newspaper. "

Yue Wenlong dared to say this, not only because he had confidence in his son, but also in his elder brother.

Although it makes people happy that the article appeared in the provincial newspaper, Yue Wenlong knew that this was not the point. The point was whether his son could find a formal job based on these two articles.

Early the next morning, he urged his son to take the remittance slip and go to the city to report the good news.

Yue Wenxuan estimated that his nephew would come to visit in the next few days, so he did not go out and kept reading and practicing calligraphy at home.

As soon as Yue Hongrui entered the door, he took out the remittance slip and said excitedly: "Uncle, both articles have been included in the provincial newspaper. This is the remittance slip. Take a look."

Yue Wenxuan took the remittance slip and glanced at it. The royalties for the two articles totaled twelve yuan. The financial income alone was very tempting.

If he didn't have other sources of income besides salary, Yue Wenxuan would definitely be very tempted when he saw this remittance slip, and he might write more articles to earn extra income in the future.

If you just write some short stories for newspapers and magazines, as long as you pay more attention to the content and wording, you don't have to worry about leaving any consequences.

Some short stories will basically not have any attention-grabbing influence. If they are covered up with pseudonyms, they will be buried in the sea of ​​books after a few years. As long as you stop contributing to newspapers and magazines long before trouble comes, there's nothing to worry about.

When Yue Wenxuan allowed his nephew to get a job opportunity in this way, he would naturally consider the long term and would not let him fall into crisis in the future.

Seeing his nephew so happy, Yue Wenxuan also said a few words of encouragement to give his nephew a little more confidence.

At noon, in addition to the third child, the second child also came to the house for a rare meal carrying a bag.

After entering the door, he took out a few sausages from his pocket and said, "Dad, my father-in-law cooked a wedding banquet for someone two days ago and got some good things. He specially gave me a few sausages. I kept two. These are It’s all brought to you.”

The second child took out four sausages, which seemed to weigh about one and a half kilograms. They were indeed rare and good things.

Yue Wenxuan picked up the sausage, looked at it, and said, "The sausage is smoked well. It should be the flavor from Shudu. It is not common here. It is really good."

"You still have good eyesight. The family holding the wedding banquet is indeed a leader who has just been transferred from the capital of Shu. I heard from my father-in-law that they have a lot of money and the wedding was quite grand."

Yue Wenxuan said: "Your father-in-law is quite generous. I'm afraid he gave you all the sausages. It's very difficult for everyone at this time. Even if the leader's family holds a wedding banquet, it's very difficult to save face."

"My father-in-law was also lucky this time. It is said that he helped this leader to receive such a heavy thank you gift.

It's been a while since he went out to cook wedding banquets for people. Now fewer and fewer people are hosting wedding banquets. It's only thanks to his craftsmanship that he is well-known in our local area that he can have such an opportunity. "

Recently, the second son Yue Hongtai's wife has been bringing home less and less money from her parents' home, and he feels a little sad.

Yue Hongtai hadn't seen Hongrui from his second uncle's house for a while. Knowing that he had just graduated from high school, he naturally wanted to be concerned about his college entrance examination status.

Knowing that he had little hope of getting into college, I felt very sorry for him.

The younger sister Yue Hongying said from the side: "Second brother, don't underestimate Brother Hongrui. He has already published two articles in the provincial newspaper. His future achievements may not be worse than those of college students."

"Hongrui can actually publish an article in the provincial newspaper. This is really amazing!" Yue Hongtai was surprised. "My little sister is right. If Hongrui has such a good pen, his future achievements may not be worse than that of a college student like you. ”

"Second brother, the admission notice hasn't arrived yet. I'm not a college student yet. Don't say that. If I don't pass the exam, I'll be embarrassed." Yue Hongying quickly corrected him.
