Zhiqiu fell seriously ill after the rain that night. There is weakness all day long, and the already pale face is becoming more and more listless. Even the eldest lady in the bookstore couldn't bear to laugh at him when she saw him.

However, Zhiqiu still went to the bookstore with a sick body, and the shopkeeper couldn't bear to look at him, so he allowed him not to use the bookstore for a few days, anyway, he didn't do anything when he came, just sat there.

But Zhiqiu was unusual, saying that he would come to the bookstore anyway. This is impressive to the shopkeeper. However, when it was time for lunch, I saw the amount of Zhiqiu's meal. He seemed to understand something.

Why did this little Zhiqiu get sicker and eat more?

I don't know when it started, but a few drops of rain fell outside. The rain was not heavy, but the sound of lapping on the roof was not small, and the shopkeeper did not take out a bench and sit at the door as usual. Instead, he picked up a book and sat in the room to read it, Zhiqiu was curious and wanted to take a sneak look, but the shopkeeper covered the book tightly.

This made Zhiqiu think more and more that the shopkeeper was not reading some serious books.

Suddenly, Zhiqiu caught a glimpse of a young man outside the door, burly, but his face was white and pure. It doesn't match his figure at all.

Zhiqiu saw that this man was a little strange, and he didn't come in when he stood at the door. The man didn't have an umbrella, so he let the rain fall. But after waiting a while, he walked in.

The shopkeeper turned a blind eye and was still reading. His eldest lady didn't mean to ask at all, and was still playing with her hair.

Zhiqiu sighed, this old and young really don't take money seriously.

"This benevolent brother, are you interested in buying books, our bookstore, there are all kinds of books, look at your body, it must be a person who practices martial arts, then I recommend you to take a look at the boxing cheats here, there are all kinds of them. In a word, there are no books that we don't have, I'm afraid you don't need them!" Zhiqiu quickly greeted him and said a lot of words to the young man.

The girl who was playing with her hair not far away pursed her lips.

How could this man look sick?

The young man smiled and said, "I'll just take a look, I'm just a rough person, I can't read, I don't like to read, as for what boxing you said, I'm not too young, and it's useless to practice." ”

Zhiqiu still didn't give up: "Where is this saying! You have to learn to live to be old, look at Brother Ren, your fairy temperament, with your understanding, buy a few books, and let a literate person teach you to recognize words, isn't it a simple matter?"

The man patted the rain on his body and whispered to Zhiqiu, "Is there any such book?"

Seeing his expression, Zhiqiu feigned anger and said, "What kind of book? Those messy books don't sell!"

He saw that the shopkeeper's face was expressionless, still reading. So he whispered again: "Well... Need a little bit of special silver..."

"Well said, well said. ”

So Zhiqiu pulled the young man to a corner, and after looking around to see that there was no one around, he pulled out a yellowed book from among the many books. It was covered with dust, and it looked like it hadn't been turned over in years.

The man hurried up and glanced at the name, only to find that the book had no name.

"Don't look at it, how can this kind of book have a name, the imperial court is strict, and they don't dare to write their names, and ordinary bookstores don't dare to sell this kind of book!" Zhiqiu glanced back at the man.

"Oh no wonder, I just said why do you need silver for this kind of book. Okay, little brother, thank you, how much? I bought the book. The young man looked suddenly enlightened.

"You didn't even read the contents of this book, so you bought it? It's a pleasure to do business with you, okay! I see that you are so happy, I will only charge you two taels of silver!" Zhiqiu rolled his eyes and said to the young man.

"Deal!"

Zhiqiu handed the book to the man, and specially found a piece of cloth to wrap it for him, and told the young man that it was best not to read this kind of book in public, and if he wanted to read it, he would take it home and lock the door to read it secretly.

The man nodded, indicating that he understood.

After the man walked out of the bookstore, Zhiqiu returned to his previous listless appearance, walked to the door of the bookstore, and sat down.

I don't know when, the shopkeeper walked behind Zhiqiu.

"Where's the silver, little Zhiqiu?" said the shopkeeper to Zhiqiu with an expressionless face.

"Oh yes! Shopkeeper, I just said that I gave you the silver, look at my memory!" Zhiqiu took out a handful of broken silver from his arms, "Shopkeeper, you see, that's all, that man just now is not very rich, he is short of money, and he bargained with me for a long time before he came up with such a broken silver, but I remember the price of the books in our bookstore, and I can't lose money." ”

"Take out the rest. The shopkeeper's voice was lukewarm.

"What's left? Why can't I understand you from the shopkeeper?" Zhiqiu looked at the shopkeeper with an "innocent" face.

"Forget it, for the sake of your kid's illness, I won't take the rest of the money, your kid's heart is really black, two taels of silver?

Zhiqiu smiled.

Of course he won't admit it, even if he is discovered.

After coming to Suzhou for three years, I didn't learn anything else, but I learned a lot.

The young man hugged the book he had just bought tightly in his arms and ran back as fast as he could.

Lock the door as the boy had just said.

Then slowly unwrap the cloth.

But after the man looked at it for a few minutes, the fist was clenched tightly.

Isn't this book just about the history of Nan Chen....

This is the kind of book that teenagers say?

This is to say that the court wants to ban the book, the ban may be banned, but it will not be hidden in a pile of books, which makes people feel extremely mysterious.

Did the boy really not know or did he not know?

The young man smiled awkwardly, as if he was also to blame himself, and did not say clearly what book he wanted to read.

Well, let's go to the boat tonight.

After selling the book, Zhiqiu put the silver in his arms and went to see it every once in a while. When the bookstore lady next to her saw it, she inevitably sneered again.

"Yo, haven't you seen the money Xiao Zhiqiu. Isn't it just a few taels of silver, come and call a few nice sounds, and this girl will reward you with a few taels of silver. "But it's not a coincidence. The young lady still saw it.

Zhiqiu often yelled at the girl at this time: "This handsome and dashing woman, it's good to reward a few taels of silver, and the sugar gourd in the west of the city is waiting for me!"

"Okay, wait for my dad to send me pocket money. The girl was generally smiling happily at this time, and finally gained the upper hand in the battle with Zhiqiu.

And the little money fan also smiled.

Little girl, make her happy.

A manly man, who can bend and stretch, this is nothing.

Zhiqiu ran to the shopkeeper again and whispered: "Shopkeeper, I'm not feeling well today, I have to leave early." Well, you can't deduct my salary, and when my body recovers, I will definitely stay a little longer!"

The shopkeeper glanced at him and said nothing. A word popped out of his mouth: "Go!"

Zhiqiu hurriedly thanked him three times, and didn't forget to greet the eldest lady when he left: "This beautiful woman, I'll go first!"

"Well, let's go, let's go. "Although there is some light rain today, it is obvious that this young lady is in a good mood, and she has not made it difficult to know the autumn.

Zhiqiu stepped out of the bookstore with one step forward, and suddenly remembered that it was still raining outside. So he retracted his steps and ran into the bookstore to get his umbrella, but he looked at his little umbrella and sighed.

It's still Mr. Wen's big black umbrella that looks good.

Zhiqiu held his small umbrella and walked towards the west of the city step by step, but as he walked, he saw an old acquaintance on the bridge.

I've known each other for a long time, even the kind that I played from childhood to adulthood.

But I haven't seen it for a long time, maybe three years. If you think about it, it happened to be the day you left home?

Zhiqiu walked over slowly, suddenly remembering a lot of past events, but after a while, he shook off his thoughts.

"Should I call you the second prince or Chengde?" Zhiqiu looked at the young man his age with a playful expression.

The second prince was not surprised why he met Zhiqiu here, and turned to face Zhiqiu.

"You've lost a lot of weight. The second prince said with a flat face.

"Luckily, when I first came here, I wasn't used to a lot of food. Aren't you losing weight yet?Can't you get used to eating the food in the palace?" Zhiqiu asked rhetorically.

The second prince did not respond. The two of them just stood on the bridge.

One person has a small umbrella, just like a few years ago, the two of them held an umbrella together on the Jingxin Lake in the capital.

But this meeting seems to be a lot more rusty.

"You don't have to guess the purpose of my visit this time, it has something to do with you, but it doesn't have to do that much. The second prince still took the lead in opening this topic.

"I don't really care about this, just don't die in Gusuzhou. When the time comes, I won't be able to make a difference, it's not peaceful here, and there are more than one or two who want you to die. Zhiqiu also began to get serious.

"You put the extra whistles around me lately. Actually, it doesn't matter, my dad cares more about my life than you think. ”

"It's better to be careful in everything, if you die here, how can I deal with it?" Zhiqiu smiled.

"You lost?" Zhiqiu suddenly looked at the second prince again.

"Hmm. The second prince seemed to say indifferently, "I lost quite badly." ”

He suddenly looked up at the sky and muttered, "Lost a lot." ”

"That's why I came to Suzhou. ”

"What does that have to do with me, are we two brothers and sisters, and two losers complain to each other here?"

"Are you willing to go on like this?" the second prince, who had now lost very badly, was a little excited.

"Ganxin, I'm living a good life now, I get up every morning to play boxing, and then go to the bookstore to fight, it's okay to flirt with the eldest lady of the bookstore, there is food and drink, what is not satisfied?" Zhiqiu replied casually.

"Then I see. ”

The second prince turned around, still holding the small umbrella in his hand.

Zhiqiu looked at his back and put the umbrella back.

But there was an annoyance, as if another annoyance had come.

Chengde, I do have a good life every day, but I haven't seen Miss Yun for a long time.
