Chapter 3 Peking Library

It is said that Xie Shuyao entered the library with his mother, Xie Shuyao entered the library, and the gorgeous decoration of the interior really amazed her, a person from later generations, and she was not surprised when she saw this Chinese palace-style library at first sight, after all, she was not surprised to see the high-rise buildings and places of interest in later generations. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Xie Shuyao has seen a lot of libraries in his later life, but he was also at a loss by this library, and he didn't know what to do, and the interior of this library was better than the libraries he had seen in later generations.

"Yaoyao, what are you stupid! Come with me! Xie's mother took her daughter's schoolbag and handed it to the caretaker, and the library caretaker put the schoolbag and handed Xie's mother a bronze plaque, and turned around to see her daughter who was looking around.

Xie Shuyao was a little shocked by this Western-style decoration, and followed her mother to the second floor, Xie Shuyao, which is called the big reading room, has about 400 seats, and the floor is actually covered with soft rubber floor tiles, probably specially laid to reduce the sound of walking.

was taken to a seat by her mother to wait, Xie Shuyao saw that her mother handed over the documents she received to the staff at the borrowing office at the door of the second door, and filled out a list, and then came back.

When Xie Shuyao saw her mother returning empty-handed, she couldn't help but ask, "Mom, where are the books you borrowed?" ”

"You stupid! People can't help you find a book to give it to you! Wait a minute! ”

Xie Shuyao rolled her eyes and ignored the mother who had just scolded her. Boredom, dragging his head with his right hand, he looked around at this luxurious library to pass the time.

Slightly fluttering eyes looked at the people who were quietly reading in the library, there were not many people in the huge reading room, many seats were empty, and as far as the eye could see, these people reading books were dressed like people, and the dress of suits and dresses suddenly made Xie Shuyao have a feeling of returning to the afterlife, without those groups of ragged lower-class people running around for a living, the feeling of being like a different world gradually spread in his heart.

When he was feeling the past and this life, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of him and passed by, interrupting Xie Xiaoxue's daze, Xie Shuyao, who came back to his senses, squinted and glanced at it, a boy dressed in a clean and neat tunic was sitting on the seat diagonally opposite him with a few books, and with his good eyesight, he was surprised to find that two of them were foreign language books, although he didn't know which country's writing this was, he looked at his mother next to him, and suddenly thought that his mother had been abroad and had stayed abroad for many years.

Xie Shuyao gently poked her mother with her elbow and asked in a whisper, "Mom, do you recognize what those two foreign books are?" ”

"Those two in Russian? I can't see clearly, but it seems to call the majority or something. Xie Mu glanced at it.

"Wow, Mom, you can speak Russian!" Xie Shuyao couldn't help but stare at her mother in surprise and whispered.

Seeing her mother's dissatisfied eyes, as if she was blaming her daughter for being looked down upon, Xie Shuyao closed her mouth very knowingly, and when she saw that her mother went to pick up the book, she looked at the person not far away in boredom.

Coming from the Red regime, accustomed to Bolshevism, of course understood what the majority was. Xie Shuyao had a plan in his heart, knowing that this person was very likely to be a hot-blooded Communist Party member, thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at this man of the same age as himself, according to this good tunic suit, his family background must be good. The man was in his twenties, with short hair that looked quite energetic, deep and energetic eyes, a high nose, and a resolute face despite his youth. Seeing that he was reading carefully, he must be a good person, Xie Shuyao looked at it briefly.

Xie Shuyao, who was looking at this man, never thought that the man who was being looked at seemed to be aware of something, and suddenly raised his head and met Xie Shuyao's gaze. When Xie Shuyao was intertwined with this man's gaze, he felt that pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything, Xie Shuyao couldn't help but be stunned, and he didn't know how to feel a little flustered, and his eyes were a little flustered because of the panic.

Temporarily dodged the gaze like a torch, and my heart immediately calmed down, I'm not wrong, why should I be afraid of him! So, Xie Shuyao met the man's gaze without showing weakness, and glared back fiercely.

The man frowned slightly when he saw his gaze back, looked at himself, seemed to be thinking about it, and then slowly shifted his gaze to confront him, Xie Shuyao knew that although he had defeated the other party, his nervous and thumping heart was only known to him, and his eyes were so cold, if he continued to look at him, he might be timid, that creepy feeling, like being the prey of a vicious beast, At any time, the meat on the cutting board can be preyed upon and become the food of the belly.

Xie Shuyao recognized this kind of look, an old friend of his grandfather was this kind of look, and after thinking about his grandfather's old friend, somehow Xie Shuyao just felt that this person was definitely not simple, Xie Shuyao got such a message in his heart.

When I looked up, I saw that my mother had not returned. Fiddled with a wisp of green silk a few times, and had a plan in his heart, he got up and left his seat, intending to get to know the person in front of him.

came to sit down opposite the man, and saw that the man didn't even raise his head, Xie Shuyao saw that the man didn't move, he snorted coldly in his heart, picked up a book that the man put on the top of the stack of books on the table, and looked at it fakely, full of words he didn't know, and he couldn't understand anything.

Glancing quietly at the man in front of him, he saw that he looked at him with a frowning face and a puzzled expression, as if he was dissatisfied with his behavior of taking his books.

Ignoring the other party's dissatisfied look, Xie Shuyao whispered to herself: "This book is propaganda about communism. Are you a communist? ”

After hearing this, seeing that the other party looked at Xie Shuyao unhurriedly, he soothed his brows, smiled and said softly: "Girl, you don't know Russian, how can you conclude that I am reading a book by a Communist Party member." ”

"Isn't it 'Bolshevik', how could I not understand it?" Xie Shuyao closed the book, looked at the other party with a smile, and secretly said in his heart that this kid still wants to deceive me.

'Oh?' Bolshevik' you all know, then why did you take all the books down? It's not like you're in the habit of reading books like this! ”

Xie Shuyao looked at the other party's smile and became stronger, I don't know if he deliberately deceived himself, put down the book in his hand, and continued to say with a smile: "You are still in the mood to make this joke, sure enough, the communists are not ordinary people!" ”

"Girl, don't say that I am a member of the Communist Party, if this is known, I will be killed!" The man in front of him slowly put away his smile and said with a serious face.

Xie Shuyao saw his serious appearance, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, You little Communist Party finally knows that you are afraid, I thought I couldn't cure you kid!

After thinking carefully in his heart, he smiled and said to the boy in front of him: "I still think that all of you communists are not afraid of death!" Since you are unlucky to meet me, then it is not difficult for me to be a little Communist Party for you, so you can admit it! As he spoke, he threw him a look that you know.

After hearing this, the man in front of him frowned and thought for a while, and said puzzledly: "I'm not a communist, why do you embarrass me?" ”

Xie Shuyao squinted his eyes and smiled and quickly rubbed his fingers, then looked at his face full of doubts, and finally couldn't help but make it clear: "You just boldly admit that you are a communist!" I won't tell anyone, I swear! He raised three fingers and swore an oath.

"I'm not a communist! If you want to arrest the Communists, go to Yan'an, northern Shaanxi. The man in front of him shook his head playfully and looked at himself.

Xie Shuyao also suddenly thought that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are now hostile, and even if there are Communist Party members in Beiping, they are all underground, who will act openly, so the topic changed to him and said: "I'm sorry, even if I want to make friends with you." Let's get to know each other, my name is Cao Ping. ”

After hearing this, the man in front of him took out the pen and paper he was carrying, and wrote it out like a dragon: "Jia Deming"

"Cao Ping" Xie Shuyao also quickly wrote down the fine font on the paper Jia Deming took out, and then looked at Jia Deming with a smile to express his kindness.

"I'm a student at Beijing Normal University, are you still in school?" Xie Shuyao made up another lie, blurting out without the slightest unease, except for heaven and earth, who could know that this seemingly incomparably sincere beautiful girl was actually lying.

"Peking University" Jia Deming also showed a sincere expression.

As soon as Xie Shuyao heard that this guy was also at Peking University, he thought that if he met him at school in the future, the unnatural look on his face flashed inadvertently, but this scene was seen by Jia Deming, who was sitting opposite, quietly.

"By the way, you like to read these Soviet books?" Xie Shuyao changed the topic, intending to divert the other party's attention.

"Well, your mother is back." Jia Deming glanced behind Xie Shuyao.

Xie Shuyao followed Jia Deming's gaze, and sure enough, his mother was watching him not far away, Xie Shuyao hurriedly returned to his mother's side and sat down.

Xie Shuyao thought that her mother would ask about this, but she didn't expect her mother to just glance at Jia Deming not far away, and then told Xie Shuyao with a serious face not to contact strangers casually in the future, to learn self-respect, and to have girl's rules and the like.

My mother has always been a very open-minded person, supporting herself to become an independent, self-reliant, thoughtful and ideal woman in the new era, and not to be bound by the traditional women's ideas of three obedience and four virtues. I don't know what my mother's intention was to tell me like this today, and I wanted to ask why, but when I saw my mother's firm and serious eyes, I didn't ask anything more. I just nodded confusedly, thinking that something was wrong with my mother today, and I would ask my mother what was going on when I got home.

In his previous life, his mother passed away before his college entrance examination, and when he thought that his mother in that world would beat and scold himself because of his disobedience, and understood that it was all for his own good, his mother was no longer in this world, and only your mother was the one who loved you the most in this world. In this life, he became Xie Shuyao, and Xie Shuyao's mother's selfless love for him has always cherished it, and in Xie Shuyao's mind, her mother Zhou Yiya is the closest person to her in this world.

On the way back, Xie Shuyao saw that her mother was a little distracted along the way, did she still look back, and couldn't help but ask her mother what was wrong today, and why she said that to herself like this in the library, her mother poked Xie Shuyao's smooth head with her finger, and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you thinking about in your head every day!" I don't think about anything. ”

Xie Shuyao was not wrong, Xie Shuyao did hide a lot of things from Xie Shuyao and did not tell her daughter.

When she came back from borrowing books from the Peking Library, Xie's mother saw that her daughter was talking to the man, and she didn't care about anything at first, and Xie's mother herself has always supported her daughter's independence, in order to exercise Xie Shuyao's independence and self-improvement, Xie Shuyao once let Xie Shuyao get drenched in the rain in the courtyard on a rainy day after autumn, and took her daughter to swim through some big rivers and climb mountains. All this is to make her daughter like a boy, with perseverance, courage, and responsibility. Xie's mother is well aware of the deep poison of traditional Chinese ideas to Chinese women, and encourages her daughter's independence and freedom.

But soon Xie Mu found a man in his thirties in a white robe not far away, short, thin and short haired, that man had been paying attention to the person Xie Shuyao was talking to, Xie Mu saw this person's vicious snake-like eyes, and could see his calloused hands from a distance, knowing that this person was a dangerous person.

Seeing that the other party had been staring at the person talking to his daughter, he thought that maybe the person talking to his daughter had some grievances, and he was worried that his daughter would also be implicated, so he hurriedly took his daughter out of the place of right and wrong. Xie's mother didn't tell her daughter, because she knew her innocent and righteous daughter too well, and she was worried that her daughter's impulsiveness would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble, so she didn't tell her what happened.

Mother Xie saw her daughter holding her arm with a courteous face, and Mother Xie naturally knew that her daughter had something to ask for her.

"Mom, you see that the weather is so good today, I want to take a walk around the city, okay? I'll go back myself later. Mom, what do you think? Xie Shuyao said as if flattering.

"By the way, I almost forgot, I almost forgot to take you to buy a few clothes. Just to accompany you shopping. Xie's mother, who was walking on the street, suddenly turned around and said to her daughter.

As soon as she heard this, Xie Shuyao couldn't help but feel a little numb in her scalp, for buying clothes for herself was just a mother's excuse, shopping is her mother's real purpose, Xie Shuyao, who knew her mother's temperament, knew her mother's shopping fanaticism, and immediately pretended to be a little uncomfortable and said: "Mom, I suddenly have a headache and feel a little tired, will I go shopping for clothes next time?" Let's go home first! ”

"Really? Since it's uncomfortable, let's go back! ”

Xie Shuyao nodded desperately, afraid that her mother would suddenly regret it, and she didn't realize how her mother could talk so well today. Xie Shuyao didn't think about it, and felt glad that he didn't have to go shopping for a few hours.

"What a daze, it looks like you're really sick. Let's hurry home! Mother Xie saw her daughter's reaction in her eyes, and Mother Xie said with some amusement.

Just as Xie's mother was about to take her daughter into the rickshaw, two huge gunshots broke the noise of the street.
