    "Okay, okay, I have my parents to rely on and my brother to rely on, so why do I work so hard?"

    Lin Xianyu saw that his parents were trying to blame each other because of his name, so he quickly spoke.

    "That's right. In addition to shining a bright light, your brother is working hard to study, isn't it just to be your backer? I'm working hard to make so much money, isn't it just to squander it for my wife and daughter?"

    Mr. Lin nodded in agreement, feeling that his daughter¡¯s consciousness was quite good.

    "And Mrs. Lin could no longer watch the conversation between her husband and her daughter.

    Fortunately, although my daughter has a lazy temper, she is still obedient. As long as she makes a request, she will always try her best to do it well.

    ¡°Then the responsibility of urging your daughter to make progress is left to you.

    "Didn't we just talk about "The Condor Shooting"? Bring the manuscript and let your father and I proofread it. You just need a break."

    Mrs. Lin quickly brought the topic back. Of course, proofreading was just an excuse. The most important thing was that she wanted to watch "The Condor" again.

    "Chang Changshou, go get my manuscript." Lin Xianyu quickly ordered Changshou to fetch the manuscript.

    Soon Changshou fetched the manuscript. When Mr. Lin looked at it, a very strange look appeared on his face.

    "Xianyu, what are these little symbols on here for?" Mr. Lin pointed to the punctuation marks on the manuscript.

    Lin Xianyu read the manuscript and realized that he had used punctuation marks habitually.

    I have never used this punctuation mark when writing poems and lyrics before.

    Even if it was a mock paper copied to my brother, because the paper issued by the system had no punctuation marks, it was arranged according to the ancient format, and I copied it subconsciously, so there was no punctuation mark.

    Nowadays, when writing such a long novel, punctuation marks are naturally indispensable, but I have forgotten that these punctuation marks were not used in ancient times.

    "That's right, my script is very long. If it seems difficult to write one sentence after another, I will make some punctuation marks."

    "This is a comma. Use this when you need to pause in the middle of a sentence. This is a period. Use this when a sentence is finished. This is a question mark, which means a question"

    Lin Xianyu gave a simple explanation. There were only a few commonly used punctuation marks. Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin quickly understood it.

    "This does seem to save a lot of effort and is less likely to cause ambiguity." Mrs. Lin nodded.

    "Madam, Xianyu, don't you realize that this punctuation mark is very important?" Mr. Lin was obviously more sensitive.

    Mrs. Lin only thought it was really convenient, but Lin Xianyu was used to it. Only Mr. Lin realized that this invention might be as good as movable type printing.

    "I will proofread the manuscript of "The Condor Shooting" as soon as possible. Xianyu, please write another piece about the usage of this punctuation mark, and we will print it together with the book."

    "This is your invention, no one can take it away."

    Mr. Lin said that if movable type printing had to be signed by Lin Yunfeng, then the name of the inventor of this punctuation mark would have to be in the name of his daughter no matter what.

    Now that my daughter is already a well-known and talented woman, it makes perfect sense to invent punctuation marks in her spare time, and this will definitely change the entire writing habit.

    Maybe it will take time, but it won¡¯t be too long. It may not change the writing on the official documents, but it will definitely shine among the people.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
