Chapter 31: The Artifact

The sky in June is like a baby's face, it changes when it is said, the sun is shining on the first day, and it is pouring rain the next day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Lin Xiaoman stood in front of the window with a sad face, looking at the rain line outside in a daze.

There was no spatula at home, so she finally found out the location of the supply and marketing cooperatives yesterday afternoon, ran over and bought a pig iron wok, bought a few pairs of dishes and chopsticks, and bought a shovel, a soup spoon, a colander and two basins.

This is the result of her running back and forth for three miles and spending half an hour.

The fat sister-in-law followed her all the way, until she returned to the door of the guest house with her, and she said that she followed Lin Xiaoman because she blamed Lin Xiaoman, and she felt sorry in her heart, so she wanted to see if she could follow Lin Xiaoman to mention something or something, and compensate for it.

Lin Xiaoman wanted to say that the circle was forked at that time, and you wanted to carry something for me, didn't you say it earlier?

I mentioned it all before you came to tell me?

Fat sister-in-law, are you playing with me?

But looking at the fat sister-in-law's sincere eyes and guilty expression, Lin Xiaoman held her anger back into her stomach, and the fat sister-in-law happily helped her lift the pots and pans to the third floor, and then looked at Lin Xiaoman with a smile as if waiting for praise.

She smiled, her eyes narrowed into slits, and her fleshy cheeks bulged out, and she looked a little cute, like the face of an oversized Garfield.

Then, with the help of the fat sister-in-law, Lin Xiaoman bought almost all the things on the purchase list. Originally, I thought that there would be white labor, not to make it white, and to buy all the things that were moved at one time, but the little brother of the supply and marketing cooperatives said that to buy rice and noodles, you have to go to the grain station, and the grain station is only open in the morning, and generally less than ten o'clock, the rice and noodles are sold out.

Before leaving, the little brother of the supply and marketing cooperatives chased out the door and repeatedly told Lin Xiaoman: "Grain and oil are in short supply, you try to come to line up before ten o'clock tomorrow, if you are late, you will not be able to buy it."

Lin Xiaoman woke up at eight o'clock, cleaned up, washed and washed out, and lightning and thunder began to roar outside, and then it rained heavily.

It rained for two hours, getting bigger and bigger, and there was no sign of stopping at all.

Lin Xiaoman waited and waited, and waited until half past eleven, when the rain slowly subsided, he asked the staff of the guest house to borrow a black umbrella and rushed out of the door.

With such a heavy rain, there shouldn't be many people going to the grain station, right?

Lin Xiaoman stepped on the potholed streets and ran fast. When she came to the supply and marketing cooperative, the little brother shook his head when he saw her from a distance, and then pointed to the grain station diagonally opposite, Lin Xiaoman fixed his eyes and saw that the staff of the grain station were already cleaning up the counter.

I forked that circle, so heavy rain has been robbed?!

I'm not afraid to brave the rain to grab the rice, and when I go back, I'm all wet and moldy in the rain... Hum.

"I reminded you yesterday that it's still too late! By the way, do you use a grain book or a food stamp? If it's a local food stamp, I and I can help you buy it tomorrow and put it in the supply and marketing cooperative, and you can come and get it later.

If you provide food, I won't be able to help you, and whoever is written in the book will be the only one who can buy it. ā€

Lin Xiaoman knew that he almost made a big oolong again. It turned out that Lin Xiaoman relied on earning labor in exchange for rations, and the team ate a big pot of rice, and the amount was exchanged according to the amount of work.

In this city, to buy food, you have to rely on food stamps, this thing, for Lin Xiaoman, the soil bun, has never seen it.

When Xu Weiguo gave her money, he just asked her to buy it, and she thought how easy it was to buy things, and she could buy anything with the money! It turned out that she had made a wrong idea, she had money, but she didn't have a ticket, and the money was just a blank sheet of paper, and it was useless.

"Uh-uh, I'll come by myself tomorrow, so I won't bother you. Waving his hand to the little brother of the supply and marketing cooperative, Lin Xiaoman walked aimlessly along the street depressedly.

After walking for about a few minutes, she noticed that the pedestrians on the road had put away their umbrellas, and when she looked up, she found that the rain had stopped, and a beautiful rainbow suddenly appeared in the eastern sky, and those passers-by were looking at the rainbow with their faces up.

The air after the rain is mixed with the smell of grass and rain, which is exceptionally fresh and pleasant.

Lin Xiaoman took a deep breath, and his mood improved a little. Looking around, I found a bookstore on the right, and behind the counter of the bookstore, there was a boy in a white shirt, his head was little by little, as if he was dozing off.

At this time, TV and everything are scarce materials, and if you want to live a boring life, books are an artifact to solve worries. She plans to go in and pick up a few books to take home, and flip through them when she has free time.

The bookstore was very deserted, only two people were groping around beside the shelves, but they didn't take down a book and look through it, and when they saw Lin Xiaoman walking in with a closed umbrella, the two of them immediately walked out the door.

"It's raining, it's raining, let's go. One of the middle-aged women said to another, a younger woman.

The young woman looked at the boy behind the counter meaninglessly, coughed slightly, and the boy suddenly stood up and asked sleepily, "Want to borrow a book?"

The young woman lowered her head embarrassedly and replied in a low voice, "No, I haven't finished reading the book I borrowed last time, so I'll borrow it again next time." I came in today to hide from the rain with my co-workers. ā€

The boy snorted, sat down again, and yawned.

The two of them walked out of the bookstore quickly, and when they were far away, the young woman looked back.

Lin Xiaoman picked a circle, and found that the books in this bookstore are basically thick text versions, and the layout is also very dense, as soon as the pages are opened, they are densely packed with small characters, and it is very tiring to read such books, maybe, this is the reason why this bookstore is not doing well.

Poking his head out from behind the bookshelf, Lin Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. She hadn't noticed that the boy behind the counter was actually very good-looking, with a fair complexion and very delicate facial features.

A simple white shirt worn on his body not only makes him look as sunny as the rising sun, but also gives people a clean and refreshing feeling.

The prince in the white shirt should describe a person like him, right?

Lin Xiaoman stared at him like this, the boy's face turned red quietly, and he lowered his head shyly.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, you're very good-looking. I want to ask, do you have any illustrated books in your store?" Lin Xiaoman smiled.

The boy tilted his head and thought for a moment, then pointed to a bookshelf in the corner and said, "Put it all over there." ā€

Lin Xiaoman walked over, took down a book and flipped through it, her brows furrowed slightly, and then she took several copies in a row, and found that without exception, all the picture parts of the book were torn off and torn off, and those that were not torn and not torn have been drawn beyond recognition with a ballpoint pen.

These are collector's editions that have long been extinct in her time, and they have been destroyed like this! Lin Xiaoman's eyes crossed a touch of distress.

The boy saw that she was standing next to the bookshelf and didn't move, so he also walked over, and just happened to see the distress and pity in Lin Xiaoman's eyes.
