Barracks of Rebirth

Chapter 12 Birthday Present

Although Ji Xin'an told himself not to worry, more than a month has passed, and there is no news about the manuscript fee or rejection. It seems that he still overestimated the speed of the postal service at this time.

Sometimes Ji Xin'an even wondered if he had overestimated his abilities. Maybe these manuscripts had already been sent, but they were not admitted, so waiting here was useless.

But Ji Xin'an persisted, thinking that even if all the manuscripts were rejected in the end.

When the sky was already covered with snowflakes, Ji Xinan finally looked forward to her first manuscript fee.

After the violin lesson, Ji Xin'an ran out first, blocking Zou Ze and Chen Zhaodi who were going home, "Don't go home at noon, I'll treat you."

"Hey, this is the sun coming out from the west, making a fortune?" Zou Ze put the guitar on his back, leaned against the wall, and looked at Ji Xin'an with a smile.

"Huh, love to go or not, I tell you that after passing this village, there will be no such shop." Ji Xin pulled Chen Zhaodi and was about to leave, without even looking at Zou Ze who was playing handsome there.

"Don't wait for me, how can I miss the beauty's treat!" Seeing that they were about to leave, they hurriedly chased after them.

"An'an, why do you two pinch each other as soon as you meet? It's not too tiring." Chen Zhaodi really couldn't stand their way of communication.

"We are sacrificing ourselves to entertain you, what a noble sentiment, you don't appreciate it?" Zou Ze replied on her behalf. However, Ji Xin'an only got a supercilious look.

The three of them found a snack bar nearby, ordered some simple dishes, and started chatting while eating.

"An An, didn't you learn the violin this morning? Where's your violin?" When Chen Zhaodi put her guitar on the seat, she realized that Ji Xin'an had brought her.

"I haven't bought it yet!" Ji Xin'an replied indifferently while eating.

"Your family doesn't agree with you learning the piano?" Zou Ze thought after hearing it that maybe her family didn't buy it for her.

"What do you disagree with? I didn't come to tell them in a hurry. Besides, I can't ask for money from my family when I learn the piano. I'm saving money by myself. When I save enough, I'll just buy a good one." Ji Xin'an He looked at Zou Ze and smiled.

"Save money by yourself? Then you still treat us to dinner?" Chen Zhaodi was startled, as if she lost her piano after eating this meal.

"It's not bad, don't worry, it's almost enough." She didn't have the nerve to say that this was the first money she made.

Zou Ze glanced at Ji Xin'an, who was comforting him, and didn't say anything, but seemed to be thinking about something.

"Zou Ze, eat quickly, it will be cold in a while." Ji Xin'an pushed Zou Ze who was standing there in a daze.

"Ah, oh, eat." When he came back to his senses, he immediately lowered his head to pick up the rice in the bowl.

Sure enough, with the first copy, subsequent manuscript fees will arrive one after another. Sometimes, along with the manuscript fee, there will also be a sample issue, so that Ji Xin'an can also know which article has been accepted by which magazine, and when he writes next time There is a direction.

Ji Xin'an has been investing uninterruptedly, and now he sees the benefits. He basically receives money every day, even if he doesn't have it for a few days, he will suddenly get two or three copies a day. It can range from a few tens to as many as one or two hundred, and it can be three to four thousand in just one month. You must know that the salary of ordinary office workers is still calculated in hundreds at this time, so this result is quite good.

However, the plan did not change quickly. Just when she was planning to buy a violin, a good violin was delivered to her.

Ji Xin'an, who just came back from outside this morning, received a call from Zou Ze and called her out. Ji Xin'an looked at the time, and if she went out and came back, it would be too late, so she didn't eat, and said hello to her parents. gone.

"What happened, call me out early in the morning." Running down the stairs, he saw Zou Ze standing in the snow holding a packed box.

"Happy birthday." Yi stretched out his hand and handed over the box.

"Ah, today is my birthday? I forgot about it myself." Thinking about it carefully, isn't it today? "How do you know my birthday?"

He said "thank you" when he received it, and it was not heavy to hold it, so he held it in his arms like him.

"It's just such a little thing, and it's not a state secret. I don't know anything. You go back. Don't you have to take piano lessons again?" Zou Ze smiled. In fact, he was counting the files of his classmates. I checked Ji Xin'an's birthday on purpose when I checked the watch, which is considered to be taking advantage of my power.

"Don't go, you came so early and didn't have breakfast, you are going to eat with me, I am also hungry! After eating, I will go to class directly." Ji Xin'an was afraid that he would be hungry to practice the piano soon!

"Since you strongly demand, I will satisfy you." In fact, Zou Ze came early in the morning on an empty stomach in order to catch up with Ji Xin'an's class. Now I can feel it barking, but his mouth is still unrelenting yelling.

Ji Xin'an smiled wryly, thinking that for the sake of the gift, he would not bother with him.

The two sat in the dining room, Ji Xin'an held the box in his hand and looked from top to bottom. "What is this? With such a big box, you wouldn't pack a big box with a 2B pencil inside."

"Open it if you want to know, you must like it." Seeing her curious look, Zou Ze directly suggested that she open it.

Ji Xin'an began to unpack the package expectantly, but what he didn't expect was that there was a beautiful violin inside. "Why is it a violin? It's too expensive, I can't accept it." As he spoke, he wanted to return it to him.

"It's just an old violin, and it's worthless. It's useless to put it in my house except to collect ashes. You just need it now, and it saves me the money to buy gifts!" Look cheap.

"But..." Ji Xin'an looked at the finely crafted violin with beautiful lines in his hand, but he couldn't associate it with the cheap old violin he was talking about.

"Okay, put it away quickly, isn't it just a broken piano! Why did it become so sloppy, I can tell you, you have already collected this piano, if you don't want it, I will throw it outside now." Zou Ze Put the piano back into the box and forcefully stuff it into her arms.

Holding the violin that couldn't be pushed out, Ji Xin'an was still a little uneasy. Although she practiced for a long time, she could tell that this violin was not a common product that could be bought casually on the street. Why did I accept it in a moment of soft-heartedness!

After thinking about it, forget it, I took it anyway, and find a way to give him something else to make up for it in the future!

After entering the piano room, Yu Yao had already arrived and was taking off her coat. She glanced at Ji Xin'an and glanced at the things she was carrying, and asked, "A new piano?" She also knew that Ji Xin'an was playing on Sunday. Violin lessons.

"Oh." Putting it on the ground, I really don't know what to say. Although the two of them often attend classes together these days, their relationship has not improved. Even Ji Xin'an sometimes feels that she seems to be there. The provocation made me baffled. Ji Xin'an couldn't help thinking that she should not be so stingy just because of the question!

"Can I have a look?" Yu Yao stared at it as if she suddenly discovered something after taking a few glances.

"Of course." Ji Xin'an still found it strange that she seldom took the initiative to talk to herself.

Yu Yao opened the piano case and held it in her hand, her expression was a bit ugly.

"What's the matter?" Ji Xin'an thought there was nothing special about this piano, it seemed that accepting it was really troublesome.

"It's nothing, it's a good piano." Somewhat unnaturally, he returned the piano.

Ji Xin'an felt even more uneasy, and regretted that he died
