Chapter 38 The Little Bookstore

Little aunt Xu Ying came again after the year. She came here specially to help Cheng Ye transfer schools.Her husband, Chen Qiang, came with her.Chen Qiang stood aside to help her carry the bag, smiling innocently, and he knew at a glance that he loved his wife.

Grandma Cheng's health has improved recently. Hearing Xu Ying talk about transferring schools, the old man smiled, "This is great! Cheng Ye, thank you little aunt, it's rare to go to a school in the city , we must cherish the opportunity and study hard!"

Cheng Ye was a little hesitant. He took care of Grandma Cheng all winter. Now that the old man is just a little better, he is even more worried about going out.

Grandma Cheng saw his thoughts at a glance, and touched Cheng Ye's head to comfort him, "Grandma can take care of herself, so you can rest assured. Study hard, and you will be successful in the future, right? The days ahead will be long."

"I must study hard." Cheng Ye felt uncomfortable seeing Grandma Cheng suffer from illness. "Grandma must also insist on drinking Chinese medicine. I have divided the medicine primers for you. There are [-] packs in total. Don't forget to add them when you cook the medicine."

Grandma Cheng knew that Cheng Ye would have the opportunity to go to school again, and she was very happy. Most of her illnesses were cured, and she agreed after hearing what Cheng Ye said. "Don't worry, why are you learning from grandma? Hehe." She carefully asked Xu Ying a few more words, "You just got married and you came here like this. Is there anyone to take care of you at your in-law's house?"

Xu Ying's face was rosy, and when she heard Grandma Cheng's question, she hurriedly told her, "It's okay, Mom, there are two sister-in-laws at home who can take good care of me. They are all very kind to me. Where are the clothes?"

Grandma Cheng felt relieved when she heard her say that, "That's good, you are married now, you must get along with your mother-in-law's family, and keep your temper calm..."

Hearing Grandma Cheng's lecture, Xu Ying pursed her lips and smiled, "I know, you're still talking about me, who is the one who caught a cold in the winter? You must take care of yourself, you're going to be a grandma soon..."

Grandma Cheng was a little surprised, but she understood right away. She looked at Xu Yingshang's flat stomach in surprise and joy, "You...have a child?"

The man next to Xu Ying grinned first, looking at the silly face of a new father, "It was just checked out when I came here, the doctor said eat well, so that you can grow strong..."

Xu Ying scolded him from the side, but the man was not annoyed, and scratched his head, still grinning from ear to ear.

Grandma Cheng also laughed. She saw that this son-in-law was a real person, and she could tell from a few words that he was very caring to Xu Ying on weekdays.

Grandma Cheng is an older generation, and she still thinks that daughters and sons are different in traditional concepts.When a daughter is married, she must take good care of her husband and children, serve her parents-in-law well, and be considerate and considerate; but her children and grandchildren adhere to the idea that all things should be studied well, thinking that they will have a future if they learn well.For Cheng Ye to be able to study again, the old man was very grateful to his daughter.

Knowing that Grandma Cheng and Xu Ying had good intentions, Cheng Ye no longer insisted on staying, and went to the city with Xu Ying according to the old man's wishes.

My uncle, Chen Qiang, is a teacher. He is a classmate with the teacher of the private school in the city. When sending Cheng Ye to the school, he specially greeted him and asked him to take more care of him.Little aunt Xu Ying was even more afraid that Cheng Ye would be bullied outside, so she bought a complete set of accommodation for Cheng Ye, and took Cheng Ye to the dormitory to lay it out.

Xu Ying took Cheng Ye's hand and told him, "Cheng Ye, you must study hard, and catch up with the homework you miss. When I return to the provincial capital, I will also write to you to urge you..."

The little uncle next to him knew how to keep warm and cold. Seeing that Xu Ying was a little tired, he hurriedly brought a chair for her to sit down and rest.Xu Ying sat down with her waist supported. She was really reluctant to come out this time. She had just had a child, and what she was most afraid of was fatigue. Fortunately, she was in good health and had a husband who knew how to love others. The journey was smooth.

Xu Ying looked at the child in front of her. She had just given birth, so she couldn't help but feel that Cheng Ye, who had no father and no mother, made her sad.She is a strong one, and her words of consolation to Cheng Ye became a strict education, "Cheng Ye, remember, you must fight for your breath! Even if you are sick, you can't miss your homework. Everyone is running forward. We have no Let the capital run again, illness is not a reason to be lazy."

Cheng Ye listened carefully and kept it in his heart silently.He misses his little aunt well and always listens to what she says.

Xu Ying felt a little burden in her body, settled down with Cheng Ye, and returned to the provincial capital after staying for a few days.Cheng Ye then wrote a serious letter to thank her, and said hello to Xu Ying's little cousin or little cousin, hoping that he (she) would grow up healthy and that he would be a qualified elder brother in the future.

Li Rui went through the school transfer procedures very quickly. As soon as Cheng Ye left, he followed.When Li Rui's father heard that his son was coming, he got him into No. [-] Middle School without a second thought. It was a coincidence that he was in the same class as Feng Chen.

Feng Chen expressed great enthusiasm for Li Rui's arrival. If Li Rui wasn't staying at the school, he would have wished to find someone to change the bed and share the bunk with Li Rui.Even if they are not in a dormitory, they are still affectionate during the day.

"Brother Rui, it's great this time! I heard from Fatty Yang that his family also tried to help him get into No. [-] Middle School, and we can be regarded as the gathering of the Three King Kongs, haha!" Feng Chen said with joy, and he There are also many friends here, but after all, they are not as deep as the ones who grew up wearing open crotch pants. "I heard that Cheng Ye is here too? Which school is he in?"

"At Yuying Middle School, I will transfer here in the fall." City No. [-] Middle School is divided into high school and junior high school, and the requirements for scores are very high, but those who enter the junior high school can almost go straight to high school.The two campuses are separated, but not far from each other, and it only takes a few minutes to walk.

Feng Chen also understood, "Yes, I almost forgot that he hasn't had time to go to junior high school. Fuck, the headmaster of the breakout scene is like a fool, he only knows how to persuade him to quit..." He helped Li Rui pack his things. , and took the lunch box to cook together. "Let's go! My brother invites you to the first meal!"

Li Rui was not polite to him either, so he took a lunch box and went out with Feng Chen, and ordered three meat dishes and two vegetarian dishes in one go.The master chef in the cafeteria was also righteous, and he pressed spoons full of spoons into him, stacking them one level higher, and that's all.

The meal ticket in Feng Chen's pocket was left with a few flimsy papers. He touched his nose, feeling a little resentful, "Thanks to today being Friday, I can go home tomorrow."

Li Rui didn't say a word. He didn't pick any food as long as he could fill his stomach. He ate the signature dishes in the cafeteria. When he was almost finished, he put down his chopsticks and made a comment. "It's okay, a little salty."

Feng Chen rolled his eyes, bit his jar of soybean sprouts, chewed and taunted him, "That's right, you are usually served by Cheng Ye! When you fry a vegetable, you put salt particles stuck in it, and when you cook a soup I've been busy all morning... I said, Brother Rui, you're treated really well, I went back to have a meal, and after three days after I came back, I felt that the food in the cafeteria was tasteless."

Li Rui smiled, sat on the chair and invited him, "Will you go to my place to eat when you have a rest on Saturday and Sunday?"

Feng Chen couldn't eat with a jar of bean sprouts in his arms, and he felt even more unbalanced when he heard him say, "Come on! Ever since your family moved to the forest farm, I've been to such a distant place three times and twice, but I'm not there. I won't go! Besides, if I want to eat, I can just go to Cheng Ye's house and wait for the rabbit..."

"Cheng Ye only comes home once a month, and you won't be able to see each other." Li Rui was in a good mood, and the corners of his mouth curled up. "I rented a shop near No. [-] Middle School and opened a bookstore. He lives here every Saturday and Sunday."

Feng Chen was stunned for a moment, and then became excited, "Damn! Brother Rui, you are really good! Have you already prepared it? How long has this bookstore been open? No, I won't go home this week, I have to go and see Look! Haha, Brother Rui, you are so awesome!"

Li Rui's reaction was quite flat, but there was inevitably a little pride in those eyes, and he didn't know if it was because of the bookstore or because of Cheng Ye. "Come on, it's just that the store is a bit messy, and it hasn't been cleaned up much yet."

The location of the small bookstore is good. It is in the place where several schools pass by, surrounded by small vendors, and it is very lively at night.The size of the bookstore is small, but the advantage is that it has two floors. There are two separate rooms and a living room on the upper floor, and some shelves are placed on the lower floor for people to choose and buy.

Li Rui is in his old business, so there are still some old books in the most eye-catching places, not many in number, but they are all high-quality goods.There is a sign written by Cheng Ye at the door. It is written in small letters, and the titles and types of the main books are written. It is quite elegant.There is also a plum blossom drawn on it, and a chirping magpie stands on the plum blossom, which is auspicious for "happy brows".

As soon as Feng Chen came in, he praised Li Rui again and again. Seeing that most of Li Rui's books were difficult to understand, he made a little suggestion to Li Rui, "Brother Rui, here are No. [-] Middle School, No. [-] Middle School, and those from Yuying. Private schools, there are a lot of students. I see you have so many places here, how about getting some martial arts novels and magazines? You may not buy many, and you can rent them out. I saw people running all the way to the west to rent books. There are quite a few in our school alone."

After thinking about it, I added, "Get some cheap dictionaries and reference books, otherwise parents and teachers will gossip."

Li Rui thinks this is good, "Okay, I'll go and have a look tomorrow."

Feng Chen walked around the bookstore, sighed, "Brother Rui, your father is so kind to you, he said he can open a bookstore..."

Li Rui brought him a bottle of water, and opened one himself, "It's because I'm afraid I'll get into another fight at school, so I'll find a place nearby to accommodate me in advance. Originally, I only wanted to rent the second floor, but after looking at the The location of the building is very good, and it was rented out by the way.”

Feng Chen asked about the specific situation again, and learned that Li Rui's parents had arranged for an aunt to cook, and she usually took care of the store, so he gave up unwillingly. "Hey, you said you were recruiting earlier, Brother Rui, I can come and work for you!"

Li Rui drank half a bottle of water, and when he heard this, he gave him a sideways glance, "Come on, if you delay your studies, won't your parents eat me alive?"

Feng Chen squeezed the mineral water bottle, and replied with a smile, "Brother Rui, don't say that, the word 'eat raw' is most suitable for you. I heard from Fatty Yang that you smoked that bastard Cheng Yue ? I knew that anyone who dared to provoke Cheng Ye would be the class enemy of the rascals and rascals, and sooner or later they would be 'swallowed alive' by you, Brother Rui..."

He was still talking poorly, when he heard the door creak, and a man walked in with a big bag.He looked up and saw that he was a well-behaved boy, his hands were full of various vegetables, he seemed to have walked for a while, and his face was covered with thin sweat, which seemed quite painful.

"Brother Rui, you guys are here so early? I'm going to cook now, it will be ready in a while!"

The author has something to say:

Come to the small bookstore for a group photo of three people:

Li Rui: Feng Chen, what expression do you have?Didn't you laugh just now?

Feng Chen (far left): Huh?Oh, as soon as I see other people being sweet, I'm habitually jealous... =. =
