I am a Big Villain
291. The counterattack of the old people 3
According to his original character, Yan Chu did not dare to change too much all at once. He originally offered to help his parents with cooking, which was enough of a surprise to Yan's father and Yan's mother. If he suddenly started cleaning housework, I'm afraid In the eyes of the superstitious elders, it was time to consider ghost possession.
So Yan Chu made a plan and temporarily helped the family to cook a lunch. As for breakfast, it was usually prepared by Gu Aihong, who got up early. She would not get up until three o'clock in the morning. As for dinner, as long as the portion was cooked at noon, Just reheat these meals at night and cook a pot of rice.
If they only cooked one meal a day, the couple would not doubt it.
Once they were able to accept his changes, he would make subsequent changes.
Therefore, after calculating the time, Yan Chu got dressed and came out of the room when he saw that it was already ten o'clock on the watch. In fact, this time was already too early for the original person. Before that, Because I stayed up late coding, it was common for the other party to sleep until one or two in the afternoon.
Worried that her son would be starved, Gu Aihong would often bring the prepared meals to the room at this time, wake her son up, watch him eat, and then let him go back to sleep.
The Yan family's room is an old house built more than 30 years ago. The structure of the bungalow is very old. In addition, a straw team was hired when it was originally built. There are some problems with the construction structure. Now it can be called a dilapidated house.
After the original person was born, Yan Yuanjiang and Gu Aihong paid for someone to strengthen the ceiling on the roof, then renovated the house and built a bathroom that was just becoming popular in rural areas at that time.
For the convenience of my son going to the toilet at night, this bathroom is located next to the original room.
Wearing short-sleeved shorts and dragging slippers, Yan Chu went to the bathroom to wash up. Because it took a long time to build and there was no money left to repair it, the toilet seat inside had been damaged in the past ten years, and the water tank behind it could not work properly. To use, you can only flush the toilet manually with water from the bucket placed next to the toilet.
On weekdays, Yan Yuanjiang and Gu Aihong do not use this bathroom. They are accustomed to going to the toilet in the backyard. To this day, the latrine is still preserved in the Yan family's yard.
The bathroom is also equipped with a gas water heater, but like the flush toilet, it also has various problems. The ignition is slow and the water output is weak. In short, there are a lot of problems in a small bathroom.
From Wei Zhi's work, the economic level of the Yan family is clear at a glance.
Yan Chu took out the original toothbrush and squeezed a tube of toothpaste on it. There was an enamel cup on the side, the paint had peeled off. There were two toothbrushes inserted in it. The bristles had already turned yellow and exploded, but The brush was still not thrown away by the owner, and there was a piece of toothpaste that had almost turned into iron in the cup, which was also not thrown away by the frugal owner.
In comparison, the original mug, which is quite fashionable, and the brand-new toothbrush, can be regarded as the most beautiful thing in this room.
Sighing, Yan Chu took a sip of water, rinsed his mouth, and began to brush his teeth. Along the way, he looked at himself in the mirror.
The facial features of the original body are still very good, but it is a pity that due to the long-term lack of light and the reversal of day and night, the originally smooth skin has become rough. The pores on the tip of the nose and the wings of the nose are enlarged and shiny, and there is a huge pimple on the tip of the nose. .
His skin color was dull and yellow, his eyes were blue and black, his lips were also an unhealthy color, his hair hadn't been combed for an unknown amount of time, and his bangs had covered his eyes, even blocking his line of sight.
After spitting out the foam in his mouth, Yan Chu felt that maybe he should be lucky that although he was a homebody, he did not overeat. At least with him ruining his body like this, he did not have problems such as excessive obesity for the time being.
But even so, his current state is definitely not much better. I am afraid that his former classmates in junior high school and high school will not believe that this is the top student in their minds.
After rinsing his teeth, shaving and washing his face, Yan Chu rubbed the skin on his cheeks. The skin turned red and looked a little brighter before he walked to the main room.
"Oooh ooh-"
When he came out, Yan Aotian had just woken up and was enjoying grandma's care.
"Let's have another bite."
Gu Aihong sat on the chair and asked Yan Aotian to put his two front paws on her knees. He held a bowl of mixed rice in his hand and fed it into the mouth of the dog grandson.
There is a saying, "Grandma always thinks you are hungry. She has just fed Yan Aotian a bowl of rice, but Gu Aihong always thinks that she can feed another half bowl, so that she and her boss will not be at home in the afternoon, and her son will forget Feeding Aotian.
Who is not a baby anymore? Yan Aotian enjoys grandma's love very much. He cooes like a baby, eats a mouthful of food, and rubs the old lady with his big furry head. He can coax the old lady into blindness and treat him as his own grandson. .
"Ah Chu, why did you get up so early today?"
Gu Aihong said in surprise when she saw her son coming down from upstairs and feeding his grandson the last bite of food.
Her son's living habits were not good before, and she was worried. Didn't the experts on TV say that staying up late can cause cancer? Even if it doesn't cause cancer, it is definitely bad for the body.
But her son had big ideas and wouldn't listen to her at all. Sometimes he would get angry if she tried to persuade her too much.
His son said that he is creating now, and only at night can he get the most inspiration. Gu Aihong doesn't know what his son is creating. He has been creating for four years, but the old lady who has always followed her son does not dare to be too I can only tolerate it if I go against my son.
Sometimes, the old lady wakes up at two or three in the middle of the night and sees the light in her son's room is on. She is so distressed that she dares not wake him up during the day, for fear that she will not get enough sleep and put a greater burden on her body. .
Under such a vicious cycle, the original body almost became a nocturnal creature.
No, although ten o'clock is not too early for ordinary people, the old lady was still very happy and immediately started preparing breakfast for her son.
It’s just that the rest of the pot of porridge cooked in the morning was eaten by the dog’s grandson. Not even half of the steamed rolls were left. How could he conjure food for his son?
"Aotian's appetite is so big that he has eaten all his breakfast. Just wait, Mom will cook you a bowl of noodles."
Looking at the empty pots, the old lady regretted feeding her grandson so much breakfast.
"Ouch——"
Yan Aotian's face was confused. Who was feeding it one baby at a time just now?
The baby is heartbroken.
With his tail drooped, Yan Aotian walked towards the dog cage in the backyard with his head lowered. He felt that he needed some time to accept this unreasonable world.
"Mom, no need, we'll have lunch soon."
The original person's living habits are not good, and Yan Chu plans to slowly change them. However, because the other person never had breakfast before, he really doesn't feel hungry at all now. I'm afraid the original person's body has become accustomed to this. Unhealthy lifestyle.
"The pot of potatoes was not fried well yesterday. I went online to find some tutorials at night. I will be able to fry the potatoes beautifully today." With an unconvinced look, Yan Chu followed the old lady into the kitchen. , pointing to the basket of potatoes on the porcelain stove.
"Besides, didn't you say yesterday that I would be the one to cook from today on? You can just help me out on the side and check out my skills."
Yan Chu looked like he was treating cooking as a fun thing. Although the old lady was worried that her son would hurt his hands when cutting vegetables or burning oil when cooking, she still agreed nervously.
She is already so old, and to put it bluntly, who in the family will cook for the two of them in case of an emergency? And to put it bluntly, the old man is older than her, so who of the two will leave first? It's hard to tell, without their care, my son is alone, and he has not been allowed to do any housework since he was a child. How can he take care of himself?
Marrying a daughter-in-law is just the beautiful yearning of the two elders. It is not certain whether they will actually get married. Besides, girls nowadays are also very coquettish, and they may not be willing to marry her as a ready-made nanny.
Now that her son is willing to learn to cook, she shouldn't hurt her son's self-confidence.
With this thought, the old lady actively helped her son. When Yan Chu was cooking, she also taught him some cooking tips from time to time. Although Yan Chu had already memorized those tips by heart, but after listening to When the old lady mentioned it, she still showed a knowledgeable expression.
Today is the same as last night, with one meat and three vegetables, but the portion is much larger than last night, because these dishes require another meal in the evening.
This time, his craftsmanship has indeed improved a lot, at least there is no burnt phenomenon.
"We, A Chu, are just smart. Unlike your father and me, we have lived our whole lives and can't even fry a vegetable."
Few men in Yan Yuanjiang's era could cook. At most, he only went into the kitchen to help his wife light the fire. After installing a gas stove at home, the earth stove was used even less. In contrast, He also goes into the kitchen less often.
Times are changing now. A man's ability to cook has become one of the signs of whether he is a good man who takes care of his family. But at Yan Yuanjiang's age, he has no intention of changing. He would rather help the old woman share some of the farm work. I don't want to go into the kitchen to learn how to cook.
But the situation of his son was there. Yan Yuanjiang, like his wife, understood the benefits of his son learning to cook, and happily accepted this situation.
After lunch, Yan Yuanjiang and Gu Aihong rested for a while, then went to the fields again. Suddenly, only Yan Chu and Yan Aotian were left in the house.
After tidying up the original messy room a little, Yan Chu fell into deep thought while facing the computer with the word document open.
As an online novel writer, he has never been exposed to such a profession before. Now that he has become an author loved by many readers under such blinding circumstances, it is obviously very unreliable.
Especially when writing novels, you have to find your own position and audience. He doesn't even know what type of novels are popular right now, so he seems to be a bit hasty when he writes rashly.
Speaking of which, the original person seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding.
Before he wanted to become an author, he was crazy about online novels, but after he wanted to become an author, his enthusiasm for novels subsided.
Every time he reads a novel, he can't help but compare that novel with his own novel, and then find out a lot of faults in that novel. At this time, he is more than ten times better than him. After ten times the collection, my mentality collapsed.
Since then, Yuan Zhen rarely reads novels, and he can't read the popular novels. He just takes advantage of the popularity of popular novels to determine what he will write next. He has never thought about learning other people's structures. The reason why people’s novels are so popular among readers.
It is never advisable to work behind closed doors. The reason why the original author has not achieved any results after four years of writing may be inseparable from his arrogance and low self-esteem.
Thinking like this, Yan Chu closed the word document, opened the website where he originally wrote, found the novel that ranked first on the best-seller list, and began to study it seriously.
Wonderful, so wonderful!
It is worthy of being another masterpiece by the master of the male channel. Yan Chu could not help but immerse himself in the content of the story after just reading the beginning. When he saw the wonderful parts, he could not help but applaud.
"Ouch——"
Yan Aotian's eyes widened. Who did it offend if it slept honestly? Why spank it if it had nothing to do?
Yan Chu, who was immersed in the content of the novel, rubbed Yan Aotian's fat butt perfunctorily as compensation, then lay on the bed holding the phone, never taking his eyes off the phone again.
In one afternoon, Yan Chu only read the first one hundred chapters, and the latest chapter of this serialized novel has been updated to more than one thousand three hundred chapters. If you want to finish reading this book, I am afraid it will take ten hours. Time to come.
Especially Yan Chu, because he has to learn other people's rhythms and cool arrangements, so I'm afraid it will take longer.
This is just a best-selling article. If you want to figure out the preferences of current readers, you have to read at least ten or twenty cool articles on the best-selling list.
Moreover, Yan Chu also noticed that the Dian family's articles were often long articles with millions of words, and some even had nearly 10 million words. In other words, it would take at least two or three years to write a book.
Moreover, as a newcomer, the long free period of hundreds of thousands of words means that there is almost no exposure, and it is difficult to get ahead.
Many authors have survived one book after another. On this entire website, there are many people who have struggled for many years but have not been able to get ahead.
Rubbing his sore eyes, Yan Chu began to think about his current situation. Can he survive that long? In other words, can the two old people at home stay with him for that long?
After collecting the novel he was watching, Yan Chu directly logged into an author forum called Kongkong and compared the business models and audience groups of different websites.
Currently, there are many well-known websites on the Internet, among which Dianjia and Lujiang are the leading websites for male and female channels respectively.
After understanding the survival mode of Dian authors, Yan Chu observed the Green River again.
Compared with Dianjia's long free period, Lujiang's free period is basically kept at 50,000 to 70,000 words due to the short length of the articles. Based on the normal calculation of 600,000 words for a book, it only takes three or four months to complete a book. time.
The most important thing is that Lujiang provides support and preferential treatment to newcomers. Basically, by looking at the top three lists, you can roughly know the development prospects of the article.
It's just that Lujiang is a female channel. As the name suggests, the main audience is women.
The two websites had pros and cons, and Yan Chu suddenly fell into the anxiety of choosing.
In the end, he decided to choose which site to write on after studying the best-selling novels on both sites.
*****
In the blink of an eye, Yan Chu has been in this world for more than 20 days. During these 20 days, he finally finished reading the book list he ordered and took two thick notebooks, barely gaining some insights.
After weighing his own writing style, Yan Chu finally decided to write an article in Lujiang. Although it seemed a bit strange for a male author to go to a female channel to write an article, but across the Internet, as long as he didn't say anything, what would the readers do? Will know his gender.
Yan Chu has a delicate character. In contrast, he feels that the wind of the green river with long flowing water may be more suitable for him.
After deciding on the writing website, the next thing to consider is the subject matter and content.
Yan Chu already had a direction for what to write specifically, but he still had to make preliminary preparations. After all, this was his debut novel.
"Mom and Dad, I'll go to town to get a haircut after dinner."
For more than half a month, Yan Chu's hair has grown longer. In order not to affect his meals, he even had to tie his hair up with a rubber band.
Previously, he had no time to go to town to get a haircut because he was obsessed with writing. Now that the most worrying matter has been dealt with, he has free time to take care of himself.
"It's time to cut your hair. Mom will get you money later."
Gu Aihong reminded her son once a few days ago. Seeing that his son now took the initiative, he rummaged through his pockets to get money for his son: "Since you have gone to town, go to the supermarket and buy something you want to eat. By the way, the weather is bad now." It’s getting hot too. If you want to eat some popsicles, just buy some from the town.”
After calculation, it seems that there are quite a lot of things to bring when his son comes back. Gu Aihong pushed her husband aside: "Old man, you don't have anything to do this afternoon anyway, so you might as well drive your son to town on an electric tricycle. By the way, Put the things you bought back. By the way, the washing powder at home is almost used up. Check to see if there are any promotions in the supermarket. Buy a bag and ask for the cat brand. That one is more cost-effective. There is also sugar. I also weigh one pound. I still have salt at home. As for radiation, I have stored three boxes, and I don’t know when I will finish all the salt.”
The old lady counted on her fingers what needed to be added to the house, for fear of missing something.
"Mom, you and Dad can take a break at noon, and I can just drive the electric tricycle to town."
After finally finishing a busy period, the old couple didn't get much rest. Yan Chu didn't want his father, who was finally able to take a comfortable nap, to accompany him to the town in the sun because of his haircut.
"That's not okay."
Gu Aihong and Yan Yuanjiang both objected. Their son could drive an electric three-wheeler, but he could only drive it in the village. There were so many cars in the town, what if he got hit? He was always worried if there was no one to follow him.
"I have to meet my classmates in the afternoon. If dad follows me, there will be no difference between me and an unweaned baby in the eyes of others. If you insist on following me, I won't go."
Yan Chu randomly found a reason to meet his classmates. God knows how many years he has not been in contact with those classmates. His self-esteem is so strong. He knows that he is a joke in the eyes of others, so how can he get involved in it and humiliate himself? Woolen cloth.
"Go meet your classmates."
Gu Aihong and Yan Yuanjiang looked at each other, with a hint of joy and excitement on their faces.
"In that case, you go by yourself, but you have to be careful along the way. Don't bring any washing powder or anything else with you."
Gu Aihong was fortunate that the money from selling grapes for two days had not yet been deposited in the bank. Her son rarely got together with his classmates, so he always had to bring more money with him.
The old lady didn't even bother to eat, so she started looking for money when she got back home, wishing she could give him all the money at home.
"It won't take that much."
Yan Chu took out five red old men's heads and pushed back the remaining money.
"It's rare for you to meet your classmates. If you want to eat or sing, take the initiative to treat them. This is how relationships are built." Gu Aihong hopes that her son's classmates can take care of him. It's not like staying at home all the time. Ah, if those classmates could guide her son to become outgoing, she wouldn't feel bad no matter how much money they gave her.
"No, there are all kinds of parties now. If you treat me, people will think you're showing off."
Facing Yan's mother's red eyes with excitement, Yan Chu felt very uncomfortable. It was clear that the other party's behavior was one of the reasons for condoning the original person's corruption, but he couldn't be angry with such an old man. On the contrary, he still felt So sad.
In fact, what Gu Aihong and Yan Yuanjiang did is just the epitome of most parents in the world. They can give everything to their children and save money to provide them with the best life. However, children may not be able to repay this love equally. on them.
After changing his clothes and putting the money in the pocket of his coat, Yan Chu rode on his family's electric tricycle and left home for the first time since he came to this world.
Along the way, many villagers saw him and pointed at him, but Yan Chu didn't pay much attention to it, because his reputation in the village was already extremely bad.
In less than half an hour, Yan Chu arrived in the town. He parked the tricycle outside a barber shop, locked the wheels, and walked towards the barber shop.
"You are - Yan - Yan Chu -"
As expected, people can't help but talk about it. Yan Chu just refused to go out with his parents under the guise of meeting his classmates. As a result, he actually met his original classmates in the barber shop.
Looking at him wearing a shirt and trousers, he looks like an elite. It seems that he has been doing well in these years.
Facing the other party's twinkling and mocking eyes, Yan Chu had a headache. He felt that this haircut seemed to have solved a small problem.
