Tonight, Yang Yi invited Guo Ziyi and Ding Xiang to his house for dinner. The main reason was for the small party at home tomorrow. Yang Yi would definitely be unable to handle it by himself, so he wanted Guo Ziyi and Ding Xiang to come over and help.
"It's not for free. I'll give you two a big red packet later!" Yang Yi said to Guo Ziyi and Ding Xiang with a smile as he picked up food for his daughter.
This guy was getting more and more familiar with the ways of the Chinese world. He had even bought a book to learn about it. Even the "tradition" of giving red packets was something he had read about in books.
"No need, no need!" Ding Xiang and Guo Ziyi waved their hands almost at the same time and said in unison.
Xi Xi slurped down her food and looked at Ding Xiang with her big eyes. She also glanced at Guo Ziyi from time to time. She knew both of them, but this was the first time Xi Xi saw them together!
Guo Ziyi smiled and said, "Brother Yang, you know that I'm not short of money. If I come over and help, I can even freeload food and drink. Why would you give it to me? Why don't you give both of your red packets to my senior sister! "
What was a senior sister?
Xi Xi's eyes lit up like a light bulb. She had questions!
However, at this time, Xi Xi was eating a piece of crispy and sweet braised pork and didn't have time to ask.
"I don't want it either." Ding Xiang blushed and waved her hand and said, "Brother Yang has provided me with such a good job and such a generous salary. How can I still ask for money?"
"Salary is salary. This is rest time. I'm asking you to come out and help …" Yang Yi still wanted to persuade.
However, Ding Xiang said firmly, "There's really no need. Brother Yang, just let me help!"
Yang Yi wasn't a wishy-washy person. He shrugged and smiled.
"Big Brother Yang gave it to you, just take it." Guo Ziyi said with his mouth stuffed. He was really being wishy-washy.
At this moment, Xi Xi, who had been holding back her question for a long time, finally finished eating the big piece of braised pork. She pouted her greasy little mouth and asked excitedly, "Uncle Guo, is sister Ding Xiang your girlfriend?"
Girlfriend?
When Yang Yi heard his daughter's innocent words, he didn't want to laugh. Instead, he became vigilant. Where did Xi Xi learn this word? Did someone confess to her in kindergarten? Which blind brat?!!
Guo Ziyi and Ding Xiang blushed at the girl's sudden question.
Ding Xiang and Guo Ziyi hurriedly waved their hands and denied in unison.
"Xi Xi, where did you hear that? Girlfriend? "Yang Yi picked up some food for his daughter and asked calmly.
The girl was very disappointed with Guo Ziyi and Ding Xiang's denial. She thought she had guessed correctly. Facing her father's question, Xi Xi said nonchalantly, "The TV said that Little Bing Bing is Little Long Long's girlfriend, so Little Bing Bing can't play with Da Zhuang!"
What kind of cartoon is this!? Yang Yi was speechless. He had to make Xi Xi watch less TV in the future.
Because he was going to publish a book, Yang Yi specially went to understand the market of children's books and children's entertainment products in this world. He felt that the children's entertainment content in this world was uneven. There were excellent works like Rem's, but there were also crude works like Little Long Man's.
More importantly, even if it was Rem, its content was more adult!
The whole market was like this. Adult cartoonists and writers used adult eyes to create content. Even if they imitated a child's tone, the content was more suitable for children above the age of ten.
"It seems that I have to write Journey to the West and other storybooks as soon as possible," Yang Yi thought to himself.
Just as Yang Yi was worrying about the country, people, and future generations, Ding Xiang was reminded by Xi Xi and remembered something. She smiled and asked Guo Ziyi, "Didn't you want to chase that graduate student senior? How's it going? "
Guo Ziyi said proudly, "It's too simple. I'm the entertainment committee member of my class. After discussing with my classmates, they all agreed to sign me up. At the freshman party, I'll sing a solo!"
"Then what are you going to sing?" Ding Xiang asked curiously.
"A small town in the south." Guo Ziyi felt that he was better at this song.
Yang Yi frowned and said, "This song doesn't fit your concept of chasing a girl."
Now that Xi Xi was full, she asked her father to wipe his mouth and then jumped around the living room with the three kittens who were also full. Yang Yi didn't stop Ding Xiang and Guo Ziyi from talking about this topic. He was going to join in and give advice to Guo Ziyi.
Guo Ziyi scratched his head and said in confusion, "Isn't a small town in the south good? How about I sing Brother Yang's song 'Once You'? "
"Brother Yang's song? Brother Yang can write songs? "Ding Xiang was a little surprised.
"Hehe, you don't know, right? Last time, Chen Yijie … "Guo Ziyi proudly talked about how Yang Yi sold songs to Chen Yijie. He smiled and said," But don't tell anyone. Brother Yang is afraid of being harassed by paparazzi when he becomes famous, so he doesn't want to reveal his identity! "
Ding Xiang's reaction was flat. How could she have the time and energy to look at celebrity gossip? What kind of big star Chen Yijie was, she didn't have any idea.
But she still nodded seriously and promised Yang Yi, "Brother Yang, you can rest assured that I won't tell anyone."
Yang Yi smiled and waved his hand. He didn't care too much.
"However, 'Once You', Brother Yang, you haven't made this song public yet, right? Will it be bad if I sing it in public? "Guo Ziyi pondered and said.
"It's okay, you can sing as much as you want." Yang Yi touched his chin and said, "It's just that I think 'Once You' is the same as' A Small Town in the south '. The concept is not quite in line. How about I change it for you?"
"Change what?" Guo Ziyi was overjoyed.
"'College Days'!" Yang Yi said lightly.
… …
At night, Yang Yi really began to write down the manuscript of "Journey to the West" as he had thought before.
However, Yang Yi had been hesitating about a question. That was, should he copy the original text word for word, or should he adapt it himself and write it into an easy-to-understand vernacular text?
Needless to say, the original text certainly looked better than the vernacular text of "Journey to the West". After all, this was a story that happened in ancient times. But Yang Yi felt that he didn't know classical Chinese. Even if he could read it out silently, it would be difficult to explain it clearly.
Finally, Yang Yi thought of his original intention of writing this story. It wasn't for scholars to study, nor was it for adults to cultivate their sentiments. He wrote it to add fun to children's childhood!
In that case, it was better to write it into vernacular text. Even if it was a little rough, as long as children could understand it, as long as ordinary adults could read it out, and then children could like the story inside, it would be enough!
Before that, Yang Yi opened his mailbox and prepared to send the manuscripts that he had collected during this period of time to Qiang Zi, so that he wouldn't be anxious all day long.
However, Yang Yi found that there were several emails from Ju Jie in his mailbox, including a money order of three million yuan!
"Interesting!" Yang Yi's mouth curved up slightly.
