Chapter 202: Bookstore
After saying goodbye to Cao Xuping, the head of the department, Wang Defu went to a bookstore he frequented on the way back, wanting to buy a copy of Ye Liqing's "The Best Democracy" to read and see what was so special about this sociology book, which claimed to have been booked for the best of the year.
As a creator, of course, Wang Defu is also a person who loves reading, and he will never underestimate the authors of this world because he already has countless classics from another world in his mind, he can always lower his profile, learn from the strengths of others, and always improve his creative level.
Therefore, the bookstore is also a place where Wang Defu often goes, and because he often goes to this bookstore, which is not very large, the customer flow is not very large, and the environment is quite quiet, he is also familiar with the owner of the bookstore.
What is relatively rare is that the owner of this bookstore turned out to be a woman, of course, her appearance is not top-notch, and the beauties that Wang Defu often comes into contact with cannot be compared at all, but how to say that she also has a middle-class posture, she looks like she is in her thirties, and she has a mature woman's charm all over her body, for those men who are controlled by mature women, such a woman may be the most in line with their taste.
When Wang Defu saw the bookstore owner for the first time, he couldn't help but think of a foreign movie in his mind, called "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", in which the heroine, he felt that in terms of temperament, the two were very similar.
Even so, Wang Defu directly bought the books he wanted to read when he came for the first time, and after paying the money, he left silently, and did not take the initiative to talk to anything, he did not feel any interest in this kind of woman who was already married to a wife at a glance, and he was not the kind of man who liked to destroy other people's families.
And he came to this bookstore purely because of the fact that the creative hut he rented near Soochow University was very close to this bookstore, and when he returned to the hut from school, he would pass by this bookstore.
Therefore, Wang Defu also developed the habit of going to the bookstore after school to see if there are any books he likes, although this bookstore is not big, but unexpectedly, he can often find his favorite books, all kinds of books, and then he is very happy to pay money to solve his book shortage.
He didn't know how many times he had visited this bookstore, until one day, the owner, who looked very much like "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", finally took the initiative to talk to Wang Defu and said something other than how much money he would charge.
The boss's voice has a magnetic hoarseness, which seems to have been through vicissitudes of life, but it has a charm that is difficult to describe in words, and she also smokes slender lady's cigarettes, but never in the bookstore, but in the evening, she sits on the old street outside the store, under the veins of the slanting sun, and smokes slowly, only two puffs of a cigarette, and the rest is allowed to spontaneously combustion.
In this way, the woman smoking in the sunset is like a painting, the loneliness that goes deep into the bone marrow, as if it can be completely presented from the picture scroll.
"You're a student at Soochow University?" The boss seemed to be in a state of complete boredom, talking to Wang Defu, and Wu Nong's soft language was inexplicably beautiful.
Wang Defu nodded, showing a polite smile, absolutely impeccable.
"You seem to like to read a lot. I won't hide it from you, you are probably the most book-reading customer in my small bookstore. There seemed to be helplessness in the boss's tone.
Wang Defu was also curious, so he said: "Isn't it just to buy books in the bookstore, if you want to read books in vain, it is better to go to the big library in this city." ”
The boss saw Wang Defu who seemed to be a nerd, she suddenly showed a smile with some kind of flattery, which instantly made her appearance that was only in the middle and upper posture, and became seductive, she really has a mature charm that young girls do not have at all, and she is definitely the favorite of those really old drivers, because such a young woman and wife, she doesn't need them to guide or fiddle with anything when she gets to bed, she can make the most in line with men's expectations.
"Reading and buying books are just a façade, and the best thing to look at, of course, is people. I originally thought you were the same as those men with ulterior motives but who were as timid as a mouse, but then I found out that you are a student boy, and you are really a simple student boy, every time I see a book you like, I smile from the heart, I feel infected, if there are more people like you in this world, it would be great. ”
The boss seemed to have completely opened the conversation box and confided everything she had encountered to a "familiar stranger" like Wang Defu, who had bought so many books, but the two didn't even know each other's names.
But after this time, Wang Defu knew the name of the boss and what happened to her.
The boss's name is very ordinary, just Donna, but she is a widow, and she is a celebrity in the town she left at the beginning, but this name is obviously not a good name, because she is a husband and married two husbands, and as a result, the two husbands died not long after they were with her.
So she became an "ominous person" in the whole town, but there are still many men who covet her beauty, and some wealthy local tyrants in the town want to continue to marry her as a widow and wife, and as a result, she seems to have become the public enemy of the women in the whole town.
I have to admit that with Donna's appearance, in such a small town, she can definitely be regarded as a stunner, and it is no wonder that so many men flock to her, after all, the peony flower dies, and the ghost is also romantic.
However, Donna is obviously not the kind of person who is willing to be the wife of a local tyrant, the two husbands she married are basically well-off, and then she couldn't stay there because she couldn't bear the public opinion of the town, so she came to the city of Suzhou, and used her previous savings to open such a small bookstore, and she lived alone like this, which is not bad.
What Donna didn't expect was that when she came to such a big city in her mind, it seemed that she still couldn't get rid of some men with bad thoughts, they were like flies, and when they saw a beautiful woman, they had to lean up.
Fortunately, the people here didn't know that she was a widow, and thought that her husband was still alive, just as a businessman, often in laymen, and then let her mother-in-law open a small bookstore here, and also have a job to do.
Donna didn't dare to reveal her widowhood, as it would surely make some men throw all their concerns aside, and pounce on them like the disgusting men in the town.
However, after meeting Wang Defu, she felt that this student boy was very interesting.
