Wang Gang and Shao Jingwen had dinner at Ma Shouchang's house and left at almost eight o'clock.
Ma Shouchang specially sent them a car. Wang Gang wanted to refuse, but Ma Shouchang insisted.
Sitting in the car, Wang Gang said to Shao Jingwen: "Editor-in-Chief, did you deliberately bring the novel I wrote to Mr. Ma to read?"
Shao Jingwen said with a smile: "Mr. Ma likes your work very much. I just checked the sword and it was almost the same, so I brought it."
Wang Gang frowned and said, "You are too deliberate. I'm worried that Mr. Ma will be unhappy when he turns around."
Shao Jingwen shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter. You may not even know how influential your writing is."
Wang Gang was slightly stunned, he really didn't understand the meaning of Shao Jingwen's words.
"Your book "Bright Sword" is really well written. I read it three times and became passionate about it three times. I wish I could pick up a gun and go shooting." Shao Jingwen sighed:
"But I discussed it with the president of the publishing house, and he thought that now is not the time to publish."
Of course Wang Gang understood that the first half of "Liang Jian" was okay, but if the second half was published, he would be in bad luck immediately, so he only gave Shao Jingwen the content of the first half and kept the second half locked at home.
Even so, it was not easy to publish this book. His original plan was to wait until the chaos was over before publishing it.
"Mr. Ma is very influential. If he likes this book, there is a great chance that it will be published." Shao Jingwen suddenly said to Wang Gang.
"Editor-in-chief, thank you. I know you are doing it for my own good, but I am not in a hurry to publish Liangjian." Wang Gang said calmly.
Shao Jingwen said anxiously: "I know how much effort you put into this book. Wouldn't it be a pity not to publish it?"
This is Wang Gang's trouble. As a time traveler, he knows that the chaos will end in half a year, but Shao Jingwen doesn't know!
He is not in a hurry, Shao Jingwen is!
The magazine editor-in-chief has long regarded Wang Gang as his nephew. He not only considers his future, but also cares about his interests. He is not so concerned about his own son.
In the TV series, Shao Jingwen is Zhou Bingkun's nobleman, who can be said to have changed his life.
The same is true for Wang Gang and Shao Jingwen.
"Editor-in-chief, I know you are worried about me, but I don't want to publish novels through the back door. Please understand me." Wang Gang said firmly.
Shao Jingwen was stunned, and after a long time he said: "You are right, I was too hasty this time."
The driver driving in front heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but glance at Wang Gang.
After bidding farewell to Wang Gang and Shao Jingwen and returning to Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen, he repeated what he had heard.
"This little Zhou has some scholarly character." Qu Xiuzhen couldn't help but admire Wang Gang even more after hearing what the driver said.
"That's what I said! My savior's character is impeccable, otherwise he wouldn't have acted bravely and left his name alone." Ma Shouchang said proudly.
"Yes, you are right. I judge a gentleman with a villain's heart." Qu Xiuzhen rolled her eyes at Ma Shouchang.
When Ma Shouchang met Wang Gang, he wanted to get to know each other immediately, but Qu Xiuzhen stopped him, saying that he wanted to check out Wang Gang, fearing that he would take advantage of Ma Shouchang's identity.
Later, she found out that Wang Gang had funded the charity work of his neighbor Lao Zhangtou, and then she agreed to Ma Shouchang and Wang Gang meeting.
When Qu Xiuzhen saw him in person, she also knew that she was biased against Wang Gang. This young man had never meant to seek power or wealth.
"This novel written by Xiao Zhou is so good. It reminds me of many past events." Ma Shouchang picked up the first draft of Liangjian and said:
"It's a pity that I really can't help him publish this book."
Qu Xiuzhen also sighed and said: "Yes! It's not easy for us to have the peaceful life we have now. We must be careful when we act."
…………
When Wang just returned home, he found that his mother Li Suhua and his daughter-in-law Zheng Juan had not rested. Even Zheng's mother was at Zhou's house.
"Why haven't you rested yet?" Wang Gang asked doubtfully.
"We're worried if you don't come back," Zheng Juan said.
"I'm sorry, I was having some entertainment tonight, so I forgot to ask someone to tell you." Wang Gang apologized.
Communication is so inconvenient in this day and age. Even for small things like not going home for dinner at night, there is no way to say hello in advance. Wang Gang misses his mobile phone very much.
When Zheng's mother saw that Wang Gang had returned safely, she said hello to go home.
Wang Gang also told Li Suhua and Zheng Juan about Ma Shouchang.
"So the old man who slipped in the bathhouse was a high-ranking official?" Zheng Juan also didn't expect that this ordinary act of bravery would lead to such an opportunity.
Zheng Juan filled a basin of hot water and washed Wang Gang's feet.
Since marrying Zheng Juan, Wang Gang has never washed his own feet.
"Whether Mr. Ma is a high official or not has nothing to do with us. We live our lives and he is his official."
Zheng Juan washed Wang Gang's feet carefully and smiled knowingly: "You're right, we don't care about others."
Wang Gang smiled and then said: "I have 1,400 yuan in my bag. You can save it later."
"Where did you get so much money?" Zheng Juan raised her head in surprise.
"I picked up a jade pendant and sent it to the police station for a long time but no one claimed it. Then it was given to me and I pawned it for 1,400 yuan." Wang Gang told a white lie.
"Isn't this bad! What if the owner comes to find her?" Zheng Juan was still a little worried.
Wang Gang smiled and said, "It's okay. The police station was all given to me. It's mine. You're pregnant. I'm going to school later. It's good to have money."
Although there are 10 million gold and jewelry stored in the space, Wang Gang rarely uses them. It is really difficult to explain the source.
However, both Li Suhua and Zheng Juan are kind-hearted people and will not ask for things or money from unknown sources.
"It's better not to, what if that thing is important to the owner? You can redeem the jade pendant later." Zheng Juan wiped Wang Gang's feet and said.
Wang Gang had a headache and said, "You really don't have to worry."
Zheng Juan picked up the footbath and said, "I'm not worried, I can't use this kind of money reliably."
Wang Gang sighed and didn't know how to persuade his wife.
"What I have done is a dead thing, and I can't redeem it." Wang Gang said.

Wang Gang took Zheng Juan's hand and said, "Do you think this is a good idea? Let's save the money first and use it when needed. If the owner really comes back, we will buy something of similar value and compensate him."
"
Zheng Juan thought for a moment and said, "This is the best we can do now."
After Wang Gang coaxed his wife, he touched Zheng Juan's belly again.
"Have the children made any noise today?" Wang Gang said dotingly.
"I'm only two months pregnant, how could I have any reaction?" Zheng Juan held Wang Gang's hand and said with a happy smile.
"Some pregnant women have severe reactions in the early stages of pregnancy. It seems that our child feels sorry for his mother, so you don't react." Wang Gang said with a smile.
Zheng Juan was still smiling at first, but soon her face darkened.
"Bingkun, otherwise we don't want this child." Zheng Juan summoned her courage and said.
Wang Gang was surprised and said: "What, you want an abortion?"
Zheng Juan said anxiously: "Shh, keep your voice down, don't let mom hear it."
Wang Gang glanced at Li Suhua's room and lowered his voice: "Why do you have the idea of abortion?"
Zheng Juan's eyes were slightly red and she said: "I heard what you and mom said that day. The child comes at the wrong time. Otherwise, we will wait until you graduate from college to have another child."
Wang Gang hugged Zheng Juan and said distressedly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Even if I don't go to this university, I can't let you take away the child."
Wang Gang knew that Zheng Juan must have mustered up the courage to say this. No one knew better than him how much Zheng Juan looked forward to the arrival of this child.
She has not been pregnant for three years after being married. Zheng Juan didn't show it on the outside, but she was actually more anxious than anyone else on the inside. So when she learned that she was pregnant, her joy could not be described in words.
"You can have children again. This is your chance to go to college. I can't let children delay your future." Zheng Juan said with tears streaming down her face.
Wang Gang hugged Zheng Juan tighter.
"Juan'er, I'm only going to say this once, you and your children are more important than anything else. Let alone a university, even if you are an academician, I won't trade my children for it." Wang Gang said pitifully:
"You have to believe in your man. No matter what happens, I have a solution."
Zheng Juan was very moved and hugged her husband tightly, her clothes soaked with tears.
"But what can you do?" Zheng Juan asked weakly.
"There are always more solutions than difficulties. Besides, it's not like I can't go home when I go to college. If I can't afford it, I can just spend some money and hire a nanny." Wang Gang consoled me.
"How much does it cost to hire a nanny?" Zheng Juan said in surprise.
Wang Gang held Zheng Juan's face and said affectionately: "No amount of money can exchange for the health and happiness of my wife and children."
Zheng Juan was so moved that she couldn't say anything.
After finally appeasing Zheng Juan, Wang Gang was thinking about some formal way to get money.
