Rebirth: Make a fortune and raise a daughter

Chapter 21 Meeting an old friend in the bookstore

At this time, the area around Ye Liuli's house had not yet been developed. Everything was pastoral and quiet, with fields, green vegetables, various plants, small ditches, small rivers, and ridge paths everywhere.

The road in front of every house has not been poured with cement. It is a mud road full of potholes. It is fine on a sunny day, but it is terrible on a rainy day. Not only are the feet covered with mud, but the bicycle is not easy to walk at all. I can only push the bicycle to the main road. To ride a bike.

At this time, Jinlin County was completely integrated with urban and rural areas, as was the case in many places. Later, it was slowly demolished, and the land was filled in ditches and rivers to build houses. Places like the one near Ye Liuli's house basically disappeared. Soon In the future, the neighborhood around Ye Liuli's home will be surrounded by high-rise buildings. Every household will pay for a cement road at the door, and the busiest shopping mall street will be within a few steps of the door.

It’s impossible to imagine that it once was such an idyllic place.

The bicycle soon reached the main road and passed two traffic lights. Li Yu put Ye Liuli down. Ye Liuli waved goodbye amidst Li Yu's uneasy instructions.

Until Li Yu's figure was no longer visible, Ye Liuli turned around and walked towards the way he came.

What she wanted to go to was a large Xinhua Bookstore near her home, just across the road from her home.

Ye Liuli didn't walk long and looked at the old houses on the roadside. Many of them would become high-rise buildings in the near future.

After passing a few traffic lights, Ye Liuli arrived at Xinhua Bookstore.

The steps at the door are very high, and the sign of the bookstore is in black letters on a gold background, which is very grand and reads, Xinhua Bookstore.

The bookstore is large and close to home. Ye Liuli often came here to read romance novels when she was in high school.

The inside and outside of the bookstore are like two different worlds. Outside there is a lot of traffic, people, noise, and horns, but inside the bookstore is very quiet and seems to be a few degrees cooler than outside.

Ye Liuli wrapped herself in a thick coat and entered the bookstore.

The bookstore is very clean. There is no trace of dust on the bookcases, books, and floors. There should be dedicated people cleaning it every day.

In her previous life, Ye Liuli was lucky enough to work in a library for several months. Every day she would sweep and mop the floors, wipe the bookshelves, sort out the messy books on the shelves, and sort them into categories.

Even if I say I am tired, I am tired. Even if I say I am not tired, I am not that tired.

The books in the bookstore are divided into many areas. In her previous life, Ye Liuli liked to stay in the modern literature category, and the books in that area were basically novels about youth pain.

Ye Liuli walked near the textbooks and looked for books related to programming.

At this time, computers were not yet a household name, and there were not many books on programming. Ye Liuli finally found it in a corner.

The library in the small county town did not have tables and chairs. After Ye Liuli found the introductory book on programming, he leaned against the side of the bookshelf and started flipping through it.

I can understand some of it, but there are still some things I don’t quite understand.

Ye Liuli squatted down against the bookshelf, took out the small notebook and pen in his pocket, and wrote down everything he understood and didn't understand. Then he would try it on his computer when he got home to see if he could figure it out.

The people in the library are all very well-educated. Everyone speaks softly and walks softly in unison, creating a very reassuring and quiet atmosphere.

Ye Liuli read carefully and wrote quickly on the paper.

Programming knowledge can also be found on the Internet, but the knowledge on the Internet is too much and messy. It is better to read the system from books. She has written down the titles of several books that teach programming that she thinks are quite good. She will go back to the computer later. Search online to see if you can find electronic versions of these books.

Time always flies by when you are doing something seriously. Ye Liuli looked up at the clock hanging on the wall behind the counter at the entrance of the bookstore. It was already past 4 o'clock.

Dad gets off work at 05:30, and she is almost ready to go back.

Unlike the mouse in the previous life who always had to return when she saw a cat and was afraid of being beaten or scolded if she didn't, in this life she was worried that her father would not find her because she didn't have a mobile phone and would be anxious, angry and hurt her body.

Yes, Ye Liuli now won't let her parents get even the slightest chance to be angry. It's not unreasonable to be so angry that it hurts her body.

Ye Liuli put the book back in its place, packed up the notebook and pen, and put them in his pocket. The moment he stood up, he saw a man walking in from the door wearing a bright red cotton-padded jacket and a wide scarf, revealing a pair of big eyes and high hair. Little girl with high ponytail.

Ye Liuli's eyes lit up, he stood up and walked over.

"Boss, do you have an English-Chinese Dictionary?" The girl walked straight to the counter and asked the boss sitting in front of the counter.

The boss was a middle-aged man with a slight bald head. He raised his eyelids and glanced at the person in front of him. He was a child. He didn't think he could afford to buy a book. He hit his eyelids and tilted his head, saying, "Then Side." Then he continued to play on his old-fashioned big brick desktop computer, "Hurry up, I'm about to get off work."

"Oh..." The girl was a little confused, but said nothing and walked in the direction the boss said.

People who are not familiar with bookstores may not be able to find books even if they are working in a bookstore.

The girl turned around several times in the direction pointed by the boss but couldn't find it. She saw the clock immediately pointed to five o'clock, and gradually became a little anxious. She hesitated whether to ask the boss again, but after thinking about it, she gave up because the boss was so impatient. , she didn’t really want to talk to him, so she looked for him again, but she really couldn’t find him.

"Hello, do you want this book?" Seeing that the girl couldn't find it after searching for a few times, she frowned and was obviously a little anxious. Ye Liuli came over with an English-Chinese dictionary and spoke in a low voice with a smile.

Ye Liuli was startled when the girl suddenly appeared in a quiet environment. He took two steps back. After seeing clearly the book in Ye Liuli's hand, his eyes lit up and he took it happily, "Thank you, I couldn't find it for a long time." turn up."

"You're welcome, I heard you ask the boss, and then I saw you couldn't find it, so I happened to see it."

The girl looked at Ye Liuli with her big eyes, blinked, and said in a happy voice, "Thank you so much. I'm so anxious. I need to use it at school tomorrow. Hey, do you want to buy the "English-Chinese Dictionary" too?"

"No, I'm reading here." Ye Liuli looked at the little girl in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Hey, I'm not good at English. My dad asked me to buy it." The girl held a thick dictionary and stopped worrying. She chatted with Ye Liuli, "Hey, are you a primary school student?"

"No, I'm a junior high school student, what about you?"

"I'm also a junior high school student! But you look so young!" The girl was very happy, "I'm in the second grade of junior high school, and you!"

"What a coincidence! I am also in the second grade of junior high school!" In her calm mind, the old aunt Ye Liuli has lost the excitement that a child of this age should have, but she is really excited at this moment.

very excited.

What a coincidence, she actually met one of the best best friends she met in high school, Mu Zihan.
