Chapter 23 Change
Facing Li Luo's greeting, Ying Zhicheng glanced at the boy's face, then looked at the clothes in his hand, and couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing?"
"Oh, me." Li Luo blinked and said innocently, "Ying Chanxi called me at noon and said it was going to rain and asked me to collect her clothes."
As he spoke, Li Luo walked to Ying Chanxi's bedroom door, opened the door and walked in.
After putting the clothes on her bed, she immediately left.
He didn't feel guilty at all.
After all, he is the one Ying Zhicheng has seen since he was a child. He can easily enter the houses of both families, and it is normal for Ying Chanxi to ask him to accept his clothes.
Ying Zhicheng really didn't react much to this. After putting on another pair of slippers, he walked into the living room and asked Li Luo, "Is Xixi still in school?"
"right."
"Today is Friday." Ying Zhicheng thought for a while and said, "I remember that school should be out early?"
"Yes, there is no late self-study on Friday. Ying Chanxi usually gets home at 5:30 in the evening." Li Luo answered the question while thinking about whether it was time to run away.
It was a bit awkward to be alone in the living room with Uncle Ying.
Ying Zhicheng thought the same thing, but he definitely wouldn't say it like this: "I'm going to cook a meal tonight, and I told your dad that we'll eat together in the evening and let's get together."
In fact, Ying Zhicheng doesn't like Li Luo.
Of course, I can't say I hate it.
He and Li Guohong have been close friends since childhood and have a very good relationship.
Naturally, he would not reject the son of a good brother.
It's just that Li Luo is a bit too wild, and Ying Zhicheng is always worried that he will lead his daughter into trouble.
Especially since he has been working in the city for a long time and has no time to look after Yingchan River on weekdays.
If Ying Chanxi is taken around all day by Li Luo, his grades will definitely be affected.
However, as time passed, Ying Zhicheng found out that his daughter's grades had always been ranked first in the school and had never fallen down, so he felt relieved.
In addition, the good brother's family lived next door and often took care of his daughter. Ying Zhicheng didn't care about it anymore and concentrated on making money there.
It's just that I can't like Li Luo anyway.
And Li Luo could also feel it, so naturally he would not stay here. After hearing what Ying Zhicheng said, he walked towards the door: "Uncle Ying, I will come over with my parents in the evening to disturb you, and I will go back and catch up on my sleep first."
"Okay." Ying Zhicheng took off his suit. Seeing that he was about to leave, he suddenly asked, "What does Xixi like to eat now? Minced pork and eggplant?"
"Yes." Li Luo was changing shoes at the door. Hearing this question, he immediately said, "Minced pork and eggplant, tomato scrambled eggs, and cola chicken wings are her three favorite dishes."
"It really hasn't changed at all." Ying Zhicheng laughed and shook his head.
"After all, these are Auntie's three best dishes." Li Luo said with a smile after putting on his shoes, "I also like to eat them."
"Well..." Ying Zhicheng fell silent and did not respond.
So Li Luo also opened the door in time and prepared to go home.
As soon as he opened the door, Li Luo saw a courier boy standing at the door of his house, about to knock on the door.
Boom, boom, boom.
"Is there anyone at home? The express has arrived!"
"401 Express?" Li Luo stood behind the courier guy and asked abruptly.
The courier boy was startled when he heard a sound behind him. He turned to look at Li Luo, then looked at the courier in his hand: "Yes, from 401, do you know this family?"
"We know you, I live in 401." Li Luo walked out of the door of 402's house, took out the key and opened the door of 401, "But our family doesn't seem to have bought anything online, right? What are you giving as a gift?"
"The admission notice." The courier boy saw Li Luo opening the 401 door, so he handed the courier to him, "Are you Li Luo? Do you have an ID card or student ID card? You need to sign for confirmation."
"Oh, okay, just wait a moment." Li Luo said this, thinking about closing the door of 402 first.
But at this time, Ying Zhicheng from the other side of the living room had already followed the sound, stood at the door and asked curiously: "The admission notice?"
"Yes." Seeing that Ying Zhicheng had no intention of closing the door, Li Luo responded and went home to get his student ID card.
Ying Zhicheng looked at the courier with curiosity and couldn't help but ask: "Which school's admission notice is there?"
"It's from the No. 1 Middle School," the courier boy said casually, "The kids from your neighbor's family are pretty awesome. I remember that the No. 1 High School is the most powerful high school in Yinjiang District, right?"
Hearing the courier boy's answer, Ying Zhicheng was obviously stunned for a moment, unable to react: "Is this notice sent to Li Luo?"
"Yes, who else could it be?" The courier boy glanced at Ying Zhicheng a little strangely, "There are names written on them."
This made Ying Zhicheng a little surprised.
In his impression, Li Luo's grades don't seem to be very good, right?
During the Chinese New Year, the two families had dinner together, and he and Li Guohong even talked about Li Luo's final grades.
Ranked 27th in the class, with a total score of more than 170 points lower than Yingchanxi.
Is it possible to get into the attached 1st middle school with this level?
Ying Zhicheng was surprised and watched Li Luo walk out of the house, took out his student ID card, signed the express delivery form, and received the express delivery.
After seeing off the courier boy, Li Luo took one look at Ying Zhicheng's expression and simply stopped entering the room. He stood directly in the aisle, opened the courier in his hand, and took out an admission notice.
Ying Zhicheng, who was opposite, came over and took a look at the content above.
There are two things in the admission notice. One is a congratulations letter similar to a certificate, congratulating Li Luo for successfully enrolling in our school, Balabala.
Then there is a school opening notice, which explains the date when school starts, as well as the items you need to bring and various precautions.
"Did you do well in the high school entrance examination?" Ying Zhicheng asked, "The attached first high school was not easy."
"Well, I got 555 points in the exam." Li Luo said, "I ranked 86th in the district. I did pretty well in the exam, but it's definitely not comparable to Ying Chanxi."
"That's pretty awesome." Ying Zhicheng glanced at Li Luo, and suddenly felt that this kid wasn't as bad as he thought, "Just in time, I'll celebrate with you tonight with this meal."
"Then thank you Uncle Ying first."
The two men walked home in the hallway.
Li Luo went back to the house, took a shower, and then lay on the bed to catch up on his sleep.
When I woke up, it was already past three in the afternoon.
Originally, at this time, he should have gone to the study room of Ying Chanxi's house next door and borrowed a computer to continue coding.
But now that Ying Zhicheng is over there, Li Luo can't go there.
Anyway, I still have a lot of manuscripts to save, so I’m not in a rush for a day or two. Let’s take a rest today.
Thinking like this, Li Luo turned over on the bed and heard the sound of raindrops hitting the window outside.
He sat up and looked out the window.
It was raining heavily and the windows were blurred.
Li Luo opened the window and found that it was raining heavily outside, and it probably wouldn't stop for a while.
So he simply got out of bed, rummaged in the cabinet at the door, took out three umbrellas, put on his shoes, and prepared to bring umbrellas to his parents.
As a result, as soon as the door opened, the door 402 on the opposite side was also opened.
Ying Zhicheng walked out of the house and was obviously stunned for a moment when he bumped into Li Luo.
"Uncle Ying, are you going out?" Li Luo asked curiously as he went downstairs.
"Well, I ran out of soy sauce at home and forgot to buy it when I went shopping." Ying Zhicheng said, "I have to go downstairs and buy a bottle."
"That's it." Li Luo stopped and said to Ying Zhicheng, "Then Uncle Ying, please don't go down."
"I just happened to be giving an umbrella to my parents. I'll give you a bottle when I come back."
"It's raining heavily outside, so there's no need for both of us to go downstairs."
When Ying Zhicheng heard what he said, he nodded happily: "Then I'll trouble you."
"No trouble." Li Luo smiled, turned around and ran downstairs.
Looking at Li Luo's leaving figure, Ying Zhicheng felt a little dazed. He always felt that this kid Li Luo seemed to have suddenly become more stable and mature.
Not as frizzy as before.
With this thought in mind, Ying Zhicheng turned back to the house and continued to prepare food in the kitchen.
Li Luo went downstairs, opened his umbrella, broke into the rain, and walked towards the breakfast shop across the street.
"Mom, I left the umbrellas here! Remember to use them when you go home." Walking into the store, Li Luo put the two umbrellas in his hands on the counter and said to Lin Xiuhong.
When Lin Xiuhong saw her son actually coming to deliver an umbrella, her heart suddenly warmed up: "I know."
"Then I'll go back first." Li Luo said, "Uncle Ying next door is back. He said he wanted to make a meal and invited us over in the evening."
"Well, your dad told me." Lin Xiuhong nodded, and then reminded her, "Remember not to tell Xixi. Your uncle Ying probably wanted to give her a surprise and didn't notify her in advance."
"Oh?" Li Luo raised his eyebrows, then smiled and said, "I know, I will definitely keep it a secret."
After saying that, Li Luo held an umbrella again, ran to the gate of the opposite community, bought a bottle of soy sauce in the supermarket, and walked back to the corridor.
After putting away his umbrella and climbing to the fourth floor, Li Luo came to the door of 402 and subconsciously wanted to take out the key from the couplet.
After thinking for a moment, he retracted his hand and knocked on the door.
After a while, Ying Zhicheng came over to open the door. After taking the soy sauce from Li Luo, he said to him: "Come in and sit down. The computer in the study is still empty. You can go and play for a while."
After Ying Zhicheng said so, Li Luo, who originally wanted to go back to his room, stopped being polite to him and walked into the room to change into slippers.
Seeing him go into the kitchen and continue to be busy, Li Luo strolled into the study room, turned on the computer without ceremony, logged into Qidian Chinese website, and took a look at the Sanjiang rankings.
"I'm Really Not a Star" is on the list.
Yesterday, he asked the editor that the number of readers of his book is about 1,200.
Once this round of recommendations is completed, it will be ready to go on shelves next week.
Seeing the data in his book, Li Luo could only shake his head and laugh. He thought that if this data were placed ten years later, let alone Sanjiang, whether he could advance to the third round of recommendation would be a problem.
But Li Luo is not in a hurry, he knows exactly where his advantages lie.
Now in 2014, the online literature industry is ushering in a new stage of development.
With the gradual popularization of smart phones, Qidian Chinese Network has also followed the trend and launched the Qidian Reading APP, joining the wave of the mobile Internet era.
By the end of the year, the number of readers of Qidian will be distributed, and the computer and mobile versions can be opened in half.
By the end of 2015, mobile phone users accounted for 70%, and by the end of 2016, this figure had expanded to 90%.
Some people may think, what is the difference?
We are all reading books. What is the difference between using a computer and using a mobile phone? At most, it is more convenient to read novels on a mobile phone.
But actually, there are two big changes here.
One is the change in user groups.
In the past, people who had the means to use computers to surf the Internet and read novels more or less had some academic qualifications and literary literacy. They could at least learn to use computers, and their family conditions were not that bad.
And as smartphones, especially very cheap smartphones like Xiaomi, entered the market, people who were originally isolated from the Internet were suddenly attracted to the mobile Internet.
These users, at least in terms of literary literacy and aesthetics, are definitely not as demanding as previous users.
Naturally, it will also lead to the rise of a number of more cool and white works.
The second is the change in the way of reading.
Originally, when reading a novel on a computer, the author would write hundreds of words in one paragraph, and the layout on the computer screen would be normal.
But once the same piece of text is placed on the mobile phone screen, it suddenly turns into a big pile of text garbage.
The reading experience will be very poor.
Many authors did not realize this at the beginning and still maintained the coding habits of the computer era.
But for mobile users who are new to the world of online writing, if the problem of text formatting can be solved, then this book will have a head start at the starting line.
Li Luo stands at the forefront of the wave of the times. The new book has perfectly adapted to the changes at this stage, and it is only natural that it can achieve good results.
However, just when Li Luo was about to write a few words, there was a noise from the kitchen.
Li Luo walked out of the study room in confusion and looked towards the kitchen, where he saw Ying Zhicheng frowning and clenching the fingers of his left hand tightly with his right hand.
Looking at the ground again, a kitchen knife fell there. I don’t know how it fell.
"Uncle Ying, what's wrong with you?"
"Um...sss..." Ying Zhicheng frowned, sucked in some cold air, glanced at Li Luo, and said a little helplessly, "I'm done cutting the vegetables."
