Post-80s Rebirth Daily

Chapter 20 Inspiration

The weather has gotten colder and colder these days. There has been heavy fog in the mornings and the roads are icy, making it impossible to ride a bicycle. Xu Ningyu and Li Lei walk to school every day.

Li Lei wanted to carry Xu Ningyu behind his back, but Xu Ningyu didn't want to.Winter - the clothes are too thick and heavy, and the road is slippery. Li Lei is still a child, so it is easy to fall when walking with him on his back.

Xu Ningyu's clothes are cumbersome now, especially wearing a long cape, which is very difficult to carry.

There is a new clothing store in the town. Recently, a hooded cape-style children's clothing is selling very well. It has become popular in the family area. Many families with good money bought it for their children, so you can often see it in the family area. To the child in the little cape.

Most of them were bought for little girls, but Xu Ningyu's aunt followed suit and bought one for Xu Ningyu as a gift.It's bright red, with fluffy edges, and it looks like a child in an ancient costume film.These clothes look good on children of just a few years old, and older people can't wear them. It's too strange to walk on the road.

Xu Ningyu wore a red cloak, which made her fair face flush.He was young, and now he looked more like a little girl.But this is the wish of the aunt. Xu Ningyu not only has to wear it, but also wears it to go to school every day. Who told him that his aunt is a teacher.If he doesn't wear it, the aunt will think he doesn't like it.

It was the first time Li Lei saw Xu Ningyu wearing this outfit, and he almost couldn't straighten his back from laughing: "Haha, Xiaoyu, why did you steal your sister's clothes?"

Xu Ningyu turned her eyes to look at him, and finally sighed like a grown-up: "Auntie bought it for me. She said she saw that the neighbor's children looked good in clothes, and she wanted to see me in them too. She even picked her favorite bright red color." This is not ancient. Not today's clothes, how can they look good.

Li Lei laughed for a while, seeing that Mao Xu Ningyu was about to be offended, he restrained himself a little, and came to hold his hand again: "This dress is really fun, but it's too long, it almost dragged to the ground, Be careful not to trip over."

Xu Ningyu had short legs, Li Lei of course cooperated with his speed, and the two walked slowly hand in hand.Xu Ningyu wore small gloves. Although Li Lei didn't ride a bike, he also wore the old pair of labor protection gloves, so his hands didn't get cold.

Now after washing his face in the morning and evening, he also imitated Xu Ningyu and dabbed it with crooked oil, otherwise Xiaoyu would be bothered by frostbite.The one that Xiaoyu bought for him before has been used up, and he saved the crooked shell in his own treasure box, and now he is using his second aunt's.Although he often has to be talked about by his second aunt, he doesn't care.

Also because of the cold weather, Xu Ningyu didn't ask Li Lei to contribute for a while.Although she didn't submit a manuscript, Xu Ningyu has not stopped writing, and she also plans to write a longer story.

I was very happy when I was shopping, and when I came back to look at my empty pockets, I immediately became sober, so I couldn’t stop writing.

Children's poems and short essays are short, the manuscript fee is not much, and there is a special fee for stamps and envelopes. Xu Ningyu has long since stopped writing.

Among several magazines, "Children's Literature" has the highest manuscript fee, and each issue of "Children's Literature" will serialize medium-length children's novels with school life as the main content, which suits Xu Ningyu's age and student status, so he wants to try it. Write it down.

It's just that he is not very familiar with children's novels.In her previous life, Xu Ningyu bought two or three children's books at home when she was a child. In addition to "Andersen's Fairy Tales", there was also a copy of "Charlotte's Web" and a book of "Stories of Idioms".When he grew up, all he read were world famous novels, and he couldn't think of what to write for a while.

He simply asked for leave with teacher Xie, the head teacher, and went to the reading room to find inspiration for unimportant sub-classes.Teacher Xie asked a few words and heard that he was going to write a "novel", so he agreed with a smile.That's why Principal Wei said that he was in the reading room every day recently.

In the reading room of the school, Xu Ningyu really pulled out a lot of children's novels that he had never heard before, and two of them gave him an idea.

One is a sci-fi story written by Chinese writers 30 to [-] years ago, called "PHS Roaming the Future".Although there are many differences between the protagonist PHS's roaming future and what Xu Ningyu has experienced, many things described in it have already been realized, such as electronic watches, organ transplants, etc., so it feels particularly wonderful.

For the future, I believe that no one knows better than him, so he is going to write a science fiction novel about roaming the future. The only thing to pay attention to is to avoid too many real situations in the future.

Another children's book that caught his attention was a children's book about the daily life of a young foreign boy called "Naughty Emil".The little protagonist is mischievous and mischievous all day long, which is also very interesting.

These two books inspired Xu Ningyu, and she also wanted to try to write a story about a child's experiences at school and at home.

A novel is different from a composition. It needs a vivid protagonist. Xu Ningyu designed the little protagonist as a lively and active first-year student. Let’s call it Little Naughty, and the title of the book can be called "Little Naughty Going to School".Yes, Xu Ningyu is also a bad name.

The protagonist of the novel has a more active personality to lead to more stories, but it must be likable.You can be naughty, but you must be kind and cute, and you must not be a bear.

Finally, with a writing direction, Xu Ningyu began to conceive the outline of the story, thinking about how to write the interesting side of campus life from the perspective of a naughty boy.For example, what is it like for a child with such a personality to go to school?How will he get along with his classmates at school?

Although Xu Ningyu himself does not have such a personality, he can collect materials through observation.The most indispensable thing around is a lively and naughty little boy, such as a big boy beside him.

Xu Ningyu carefully observed the mannerisms, habits, etc. of these boys' speech.Maybe it's because I spent a lot of time with Li Lei, but at the end of the observation, the image of the little naughty overlapped with Li Lei wonderfully.

Xu Ningyu thought about it for a moment, and simply took Li Lei as a prototype, and added to the little naughty the characteristics of poor academic performance but a sense of justice and loyalty.So this afternoon when he went home with Li Lei after school, he discussed with Li Lei: "I want to write you in the story, is that okay?"

Li Lei was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of something, very happy: "Okay, okay, write me better, just like Monkey King, I can change 72, and you have to kill monsters with a stick, don't put it in a hurry. Let's go." This is the resentment that arose after watching "Three Attacks on the Bone Demon".

It seems that Li Lei thought the story was like this, Xu Ningyu was a little funny, and told him ruthlessly: "It is about the things that elementary school students encounter at school and at home, without those ghosts and ghosts."

"Oh." Li Lei was a little disappointed.What's so interesting about this story about going to school? I've gone to school enough, and there's no such thing as Monkey King beating monsters.Of course, he wouldn't tell Xiaoyu like that, so he nodded: "Okay, just write it, and show me the first one after you finish it."

This request is not high, Xu Ningyu readily agreed, and prepared for more than a week before starting to write.

This time Xu Ningyu's writing speed slowed down a lot because the weather was too cold.Especially since the first snow of this winter started to fall this afternoon, the sky was full of goose feathers and heavy snow, and it seemed that the breath was filled with ice slag, and the school was dismissed early.

The home is much warmer than the classroom, but in the era when there was no heating and air conditioning, the walls of the family building were not warm enough, and the room was said to be gloomy and cold, and it was very cold to write.Xu Ningyu has been wearing gloves, but it is only slightly better, and her fingers are still a little stiff after a long time.

Li Lei rubbed his hands when he saw him writing for a while, thought for a while, stood up and said, "I'll go out for a while."

Xu Ningyu thought he was going to the bathroom, so she said "um" without looking up, and didn't care.

As a result, Li Lei went there for almost half an hour.Xu Ningyu glanced at the door, wondering: Did he forget to bring paper?I said to my sister, "I'll go to the toilet." I took some toilet paper and went to the public toilet in the corridor.It was so cold and there was no one in the toilet.

It's snowing so much outside, where can Li Lei go?

Xu Ningyu stood in the corridor and looked downstairs again, just in time to see a figure running into their building, and there was a rush of footsteps coming from the stairs, and the noise was getting louder.As soon as he turned around, he happened to meet Li Lei face to face.

"Xiaoyu, did you come out to look for me?" Li Lei was pleasantly surprised.With snowflakes all over his head and shoulders, he was holding something in his arms, but his face was full of energy, and he ran over with a "boom, boom, boom" stride, so that the floor seemed to be shaking.
