Chapter 36: Eat Popsicles

Father Han said earnestly: "Xiaoyu~ Our ancestors pay attention to convincing people with virtue!" You can't go around provoking with a big fist. Do you think what Uncle Han said is right? ”

Zhen Yu nodded and said in agreement: "Yes." ”

"You are a girl, you want to be quiet and graceful~ study more with Mingyue, that's what you should do at your age."

"Got it."

Seeing that Zhen Yu looked obediently taught, Father Han couldn't bear to say more, waved his hand and said, "Okay~ Let's go find Mingyue." ”

"You're here." Han Mingyue chuckled and opened the door, I didn't see him for a day yesterday and realized that it was better for the two of them to read together.

Even if you don't say anything, when you look up and see someone around you doing the same thing as you, you will feel better inexplicably.

Of course, it also matters who that person is.

"I want to go to the bookstore." Zhen Yu had no intention of entering the house, and asked directly, "Are you together?" ”

"Good. Wait a minute! ”

Han Mingyue turned around and picked up the jacket on the chair, took some money from the drawer, closed the door and said, "Let's go!" ”

-

The bookstore in Laha Town is in the center of the town, and when the two of them went out, Han's father repeatedly told them to pay attention to safety when crossing the railway.

Zhen Yu and Han Mingyue bypassed several large water pits, crossed a road, and walked to the unobstructed train track.

Zhen Yu looked at the red and black steam locomotive parked not far away and was stunned for a while, how many years have I not seen this kind of locomotive in my hometown? She couldn't even remember it herself.

People who live in the family area of the transfer station can be called "falling asleep with their heads resting on the wailing sound of the railroad tracks, and waking up to the sound of the horn at the station".

Before going to junior high school, Zhen Yu lived such a life, so much so that in his previous life, he just started to live in school, and he couldn't hear the sound of the train and had insomnia.

Perhaps, it was because I was homesick and missed the little kang where I had lived for 12 years.

In front of me, there are more than 20 railroad tracks, running countless passenger and freight trains day and night, and people on both sides have become accustomed to crossing the tracks to commute, as natural as walking on zebra crossings in later generations.

Of course, it must be dangerous here, there have been deaths, and there are also people who have been disabled.

Among the people Zhen Yu knows, there is one who lost an arm.

Zhen Yu and Han Mingyue looked left and right, and when they heard the sound of a train coming from afar, they waited in the middle of the two railroad tracks, and when they confirmed which line the train was coming from, they stayed farther away.

The two of them straddled along a series of sleepers, either wooden or concrete, with only one wagon passing by, and after a while they came to the platform.

The steps up were quite far ahead, Zhen Yu didn't want to go over, she put her hands on the waist-high platform, and jumped up.

Turn around and bend over and stretch out your hand, and the action is done in one go.

Han Mingyue pursed the corners of her mouth, raised her hands pressed on the platform, patted the soil, and stretched out her right hand.

As soon as she went up and stood firm, Han Mingyue felt Zhen Yu retract her strength, he paused a little and let go of her hand.

Neither of them said much, and walked out of the train station, even if it was the center of the town, but Xinhua Bookstore was still in the center of the street.

The two walked along the straight road to the street, and Zhen Yu asked Han Mingyue, "Do you have anything else to buy?" I can accompany you to the supply and marketing cooperatives or the first department store first. ”

Han Mingyue shook her head, "No, I just want to go and see what new books there are." ”

"Alright then, let's go straight to the bookstore."

Han Mingyue was a little curious, the Zhen brothers and sisters had never bought books before, and he had invited them several times but they were all rejected.

"Are you looking to buy study materials? Haven't you finished all the knowledge in the first year of junior high school? ”

"I'm going to buy some extracurricular books and essay selections."

"Selected essays? Is your essay badly written? ”

"Yes! Not so good. "Zhen Yu admits it directly, compared with the gods around him, it should be called 'too bad'!

Han Mingyue said without thinking about it: "I have some anthologies there, you can take them home and read them." ”

Zhen Yu looked sideways, "Aren't you not borrowing?" ”

Han Mingyue was embarrassed for a moment, how could this person be cheap and behaved? Is there such a direct poke in the face? He also wants to save face!

In the end, he still argued, "Extracurricular reading is not wrong!" Didn't all the materials from the previous first year of junior high school let you take it away! ”

Zhen Yu also blurted out, and after speaking, he realized that he was a little excessive, and at this moment, seeing that Han Mingyue found the bottom of the stairs by herself, she only echoed, "Oh." ”

Han Mingyue was choked by this word, and couldn't get up or down, and didn't speak again for a long time.

In just three or five minutes, Han Mingyue suddenly turned her head and asked Zhen Yu, "Do you eat popsicles?" ”

Zhen Yu was thinking about how to improve his writing skills in his mind, and turned his head blankly when he heard the words, "What? ”

“…… Eat popsicles? ”

“… Hmm~"

"Wait for me here, I'll buy it." Throwing down these words, Han Mingyue ran over to a person pushing an Erba bicycle on the side of the road.

There was a white foam box tied to the back seat of the black car, covered with a snow-white quilt, Zhen Yu looked at it not far away, and suddenly missed the '268' in his memory.

It wasn't until Han Mingyue trotted in front of her with two cylindrical popsicles that Zhen Yu pursed her lips and chuckled, reaching out to take one.

The rich milky flavor melts into the mouth, and it is a feeling of happiness.

How many kinds of ice cream I have eaten later, but it is still not the taste in my memory.

On a whim, he asked, "How much is one?" ”

Han Mingyue glanced at her with the eyes of a fool, "Wumao." ”

Zhen Yu didn't care, and said casually: "Look at me, I won't give you money." ”

I also sighed in my heart that prices have begun to rise!

Soon the price of popsicles will break through to one, two, and three yuan......

After listening to Zhen Yu's words, Han Mingyue was alone in the wind for a while, and she really didn't know what to say, so she had to nibble on the popsicle in silence.

-

Xinhua Bookstore is not big, a small door, and there are piles of books in the middle and around it.

Just books.

There wasn't any other stationery or anything like that.

Zhen Yu casually picked up a copy of Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams" and flipped it over, Han Mingyue leaned over and tilted her head to look at the cover, very surprised.

"You want to buy this book?"

Zhen Yu shook his head, "Just take a look." ”

With that, he put the book back in its place.

Han Mingyue found that she couldn't guess Zhen Yu's mind more and more, everything she thought in her heart before would be written on her face, and now she ......

Now facial paralysis.

Han Mingyue, who was tired, raised her hand and pointed inward, "The anthologies are all over there, and the Chinese and foreign masterpieces are on the left." ”

Zhen Yu looked at it smoothly and walked in the direction of the essay selection first.

The monthly magazine "Selected Essays of National Middle School Excellence" was placed in the most conspicuous position, and Zhen Yu picked it up and took a look, and the price was one yuan.

"I ordered this, you don't have to buy it." Han Mingyue said as she pulled the book out of Zhen Yu's hand and put it back on the shelf.

"What about this?" Zhen Yu picked up a copy of "100 Essays on Full Scores in the College Entrance Examination" and held it up in front of Han Mingyue.

Han Mingyue said in surprise: "This is the college entrance examination, we haven't even taken the high school entrance examination yet~"
