It's better to be alone than to be happy, and my strawberries are half of yours.

Zhao Xun and Quiet finally had a good weekend.

Since entering the third year of high school, there is nothing else in my daily life except books are books.

Fortunately, my father also let go today, so I can go back later, so I can just have a good time.

But Zhao Xun, who has been a good girl since she was a child, said that she wanted to go back first before she waited for the afternoon, and said that she didn't need to send it quietly.

"I think it's too far, so let my dad send you."

"Thank you, but I really don't need to, I want to walk back, it's been a long time since I can come out and let off steam."

"Mainly, I think it's too far away......"

"It's really okay, trust me, I just want to walk back."

"Okay, then you pay attention to safety on the road, and remember to call me back when you get home."

"Okay, bye-bye."

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow."

Jing Jing put the extra strawberries into a plastic bag and brought them back to Zhao Zhao.

When Zhao Xun walked away, Jing suddenly chased after him.

"Zhao Xun, wait a minute!"

"Well, what's wrong?"

"I'll call you at your house tomorrow morning, and we'll go to school together!"

"Okay, old past, half past four!"

Carrying the heavy strawberries, Zhao Xun felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Come and don't be rude, my country is a country that advocates courtesy and exchanges, and Zhao Xun is a good son and daughter of China under this beautiful tradition.

In vain, she took so many strawberries from Jingjing's house, I'm afraid the price will be very high if she buys them in the market.

In addition, he had such a hearty lunch at Jingjing's house at noon, and Zhao Xun was thinking about what to use to repay others.

It was late autumn, the afternoon sun was very good, there was no scorching heat in the morning, and the light was sprinkled on the ground, floating on his face, Zhao Xun yawned lazily.

Zhao looked at the small basket she was carrying, she knew that it must be full of sweetness, and her brother would be very happy when he ate it.

Nearly 1/3 of the way through, she suddenly heard a burst of pleasant music not far away, and she remembered that she seemed to have heard it somewhere.

I remember when I was a teenager earlier

Everyone is sincere

Say a word is a sentence

Early morning train station

The long street is dark and devoid of pedestrians

A small shop selling soy milk is steaming

The old days have slowed down

Cars, horses, and mail are slow

There is only enough to love one person in a lifetime

The old lock is beautiful, too

The keys are beautifully presented

If you lock it, people will understand

The singing came closer and closer, and Zhao looked over to see that it was a bookstore.

Zhao Xun looked up along the glass, she didn't know that there would be such an avant-garde store name at this time.

"The landlord's cat"

Although Zhao Xun didn't quite understand the meaning of the name of the store, there must be a story here.

Zhao Xun has been standing at the door of the bookstore, deeply attracted by this song.

She'd never been here before, and she didn't know there was such a wonderful place.

It was almost the end of the song, but it was played on a loop again.

This time, Zhao Zhao is ready to step into this mysterious little bookstore to see what is going on.

Pushing open the door, a pleasant wind chime sound came.

As the sound passed, a small wind chime hanging on the lattice of the door window was awakened by the sound of the door opening and swayed in the air.

The most beautiful encounter in the world is probably that.

The wind collides with the leaves, the wind collides with the kite, the wind collides with the wind chimes.

The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, and the wind chimes do not stop when they meet the wind.

Each of its ringtones is enough to make Zhao Xun forget his melancholy, forget his loneliness, and even forget time......

If you look closely, in the small room, in addition to the books on the walls, there are also three rows of neat bookshelves.

At the end of each row of bookshelves are pots of long, luxuriant greenery.

This store doesn't have a clear classification like other bookstores, just wandering around in rows.

Close your eyes and continue listening to this soul-deep song.

Oh, yes

Once upon a time, the sun was slow,

Cars, horses, mail are slow,

It will take a long time for a greeting to be put in the green mailbox;

Once upon a time, the sun was slow,

Moonshine is also slow,

Watching a movie that moves you can kill the day;

Once upon a time, the sun was slow,

Love is also slow,

Wait for someone for a lifetime,

You can only love one person in your life.

The smell of ink in the bookstore, which only comes from paper books, makes Zhao Xun feel very comfortable.

After listening to this song, Zhao got up and went to look for some of the better books in the store.

What makes Zhao Xun very strange is what kind of bookstore this is, which can have both 7-8-year-old children sitting on the ground reading books, as well as 70-year-old grandmothers reading books.

Zhao Xun walked into the little girl's side to see what book she was reading.

When leaning over at the same height as the little girl, Zhao Xun saw a heart-shaped wooden board falling from this row of bookshelves, which was engraved:

"It's not a comic"

Then next to it was a smiling face, and it turned out that this 7-year-old girl was reading a comic book.

Curiosity made her walk past the old woman.

The focused grandmother didn't notice Zhao Xun passing by, and when the reading glasses stuck on the bridge of her nose were about to slip off, Zhao Xun hurriedly reached out to pick them up.

The old grandmother replied to Zhao to find a polite but affectionate smile.

Then say "Hello".

This must be an elegant old lady, this must be an old lady with a story.

Zhao Xun saw that the grandmother was holding the famous Russian writer Leo Tolstoy, the famous world literary classic "Anna Karenina".

Although Zhao Xun hadn't read this book carefully, he still knew the general meaning of it.

Zhao looked around the bookstore, and finally chose a copy of "The Kite Runner" by Afghan author Khaled Hosseini among the store manager's recommendation next to the counter.

glanced up at the store manager at the counter, but found that sitting next to the computer was a yellow-haired girl who was no more than 5 years old.

Squatting next to him was a lazy kitten.

At this moment, he was looking Zhao up and down with unfamiliar eyes.

"Little sister, how old are you?"

Zhao asked in as low a voice as possible, for fear of affecting other readers.

Although the child looked at her with big eyes, he didn't say a word, which was very similar to Zhao Xun's childhood, and Zhao Xun thought of himself all of a sudden.

Suddenly, she thought that this little girl who carried such a big smelly bookstore was very interesting.

"Little sister, what's your name?"

Zhao Xun reached out and touched the kitten next to him, but he didn't expect it to meow and slip away.

The little girl at the counter didn't seem to have any malicious intent when she saw Zhao Xun, so she showed her standard 8 teeth at Zhao Xun.

"Little sister, are you the only one here? Where did you go? ”

The little girl at the counter remained silent.

Zhao Xun thought to himself, could it be that this cute little girl is a mute???

"Hello!" After a while, a girl with a high pigtail suddenly popped out from behind.

Zhao Xun thought to himself, could it be that she opened this bookstore? Too young to have a purpose, right? That's a little cool, isn't it?

"Hello, my name is Zhao Xun."

"Hello, call me Xiao An, or the landlord, it's your first time in our store, right?"

"Uh-huh, it's my first time here, are you also surnamed Ann?"

"Yes, do you have someone with this surname? Generally very little. ”

"Yes, yes, I have a very good friend, and her surname is Ann."

"Well, then you can take a look, the landlord's cat wishes you a great afternoon here."

"Thank you, landlord."

Looking at the elegant little lady of the landlord, Zhao Xun still couldn't help but want to ask who the little sister who sat at the counter and didn't say a word all the time was.

"Landlord, can you take the liberty of asking, is this little sister yours?"

"Oh, I forgot to introduce you, come, Lulu, call my sister."

"Hello sister!"

A crisp sister hit Zhao Xun's heart, she was thinking about how she had such a dirty idea just now, and she actually wondered if this cute little sister was dumb.

Panicked for a while, oh, oh, hello, hello, so agreeable.

"This is my sister's child, she is out of town, and she has fostered the child in my house."

"Well, then I'll go read the book first."

Open this popular book with a fiery red sunset cover, one line:

"For you, thousands of times" came into view.

Because of the time, Zhao Xun only read the first few pages about Amir and Hassan's childhood that day.

Later, the old woman in the bookstore left, and so did the children.

When it was almost 16:00, Fang **ran brought over a cup of fragrant milk tea.

"This book isn't bad, right? Stop for a drink. ”

"I'm sorry, I, I didn't bring any money."

"It's okay, you don't need money, this is what I gave you."

"Really? How embarrassing is that? ”

"It's okay, I added red dates to the milk tea, I made it myself, how about you taste it?"

"You're amazing! Then can I call you Sister Xiao An? ”

"Of course, here, you are all free."

"Great!"

took a sip of the milk tea made by Sister Xiao An's own hands, and it was really full of taste, and it was indeed the feeling of holding it in the palm of your hand, which made people feel fluttering.

"Sister Xiao An, have you always been in charge of this bookstore?"

"Yes, this was an old house in my family before, my sister got married, and moved out after giving birth, and I was the only one who lived by myself, so I opened this store."

"Then you're really good, and you take care of it so well, I like it!"

"Thank you, you can come often when you have time in the future! Xiao Zhao, are you still reading? ”

"Yes, I'm in my third year of high school this year!"

"High school junior? Then you are about to take the college entrance examination, and the pressure of studying in the third year of high school must be very high, right? ”

"It's okay, I'll do my best!"

"Well, study hard and try to get into a good university."

The sky gradually darkened, and Zhao Xun suddenly realized that he hadn't gone home yet.

Suddenly, the little sister at the counter ran out and shouted:

"Second aunt!" Then there was silence.

Come, come up and sit, Sister Xiao An picked up the little girl on the ground.

Later, Sister Xiao An told Zhao a story that she still can't forget.

This little girl named Lulu who doesn't like to talk was actually diagnosed with a brain disease when she was 2 years old.

Later, due to various factors such as treatment and recovery, it eventually developed into cerebral infarction!

So she can't do some simple brain information transmission on her own.

Later, he talked about the issue of Lulu's foster care.

Sister Xiao An told Zhao Xun that her sister got married when she was 20 years old and married far away in Xinjiang.

A total of two children were born, Lulu is the younger sister, and she also has a little brother.

Because Lulu needs someone to be by her side all the time to take care of her, she left it at her sister's house, and then went out to work with her brother-in-law to make money, and then continued to go to the hospital for treatment after earning money.

Fortunately, the strong little Lulu has shown superhuman strong will in every invasive treatment.

Listening to the conversation between the two of them, little Lulu giggled on the stool, and the lazy kitten sat next to her.

Sister Xiao An told Zhao Xun that her mother said that she was only 4 years old, and she still had a long way to go, and she didn't want Lulu to spend her whole life in bed.

Even though they know that this path of treatment will go through a lot of hardships and even in the end, it will not lead to any good results, but her family still chooses active treatment, and they will not give up on Lulu!

Zhao Xun finally took out the strawberries that were in the bag and originally brought to his younger brother, and then gave them all to Lulu.

Zhao Xun said that this is not pity, but admiration.

Before leaving, Zhao Xun stretched out his hand and hugged Xiao Lulu.

"Will I be able to come more often in the future? Sister Xiao An? ”

"Of course, as long as you want."
