Chapter 39: Mu Qinghua
On this day, Zeng Le became the coolie of Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, visited the Forbidden City in the morning, and went to the Great Wall in the afternoon, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and Zeng Letian's itinerary some time ago was completely reversed, and it happened that lunch was also eaten in the small alley near the Forbidden City.
"How old are you, young man?"
The boss is a white-haired old man, his appearance is a little obscene, it's not that Zeng Le deliberately belittled his image, it's really that this old man looked at Xiaobai and Xiaoqing's eyes with squint, remember the last time he came, he was also so virtuous.
"Just graduated from high school, eighteen."
"Eighteen and eighteen, a flower of youth."
The old man shook his fan and asked happily:
"These two are not the same as the two girls last time, are they?"
Zeng Le looked at the old man in surprise.
"Do you remember me?"
"Hey, I wouldn't remember anyone if I had so many guests coming and going in a day, but you're different, boy, you're the one."
The old man gave a thumbs up and explained to Zeng Le:
"The two girls you brought last time were the national color Tianxiang, this time it was the sinking fish and the geese, and the old man I was not much better when I was young, next time you want to bring two more closed moon flowers, I will really accept it."
"Old man, it's useless for you to obey me."
Zeng Lele went to check out, thinking that he would leave quickly, and it was best not to bring someone to his house next time.
"Zeng Le, what did you talk to about with that old man just now?"
Xiaobai was more curious, but Zeng Leke wouldn't reveal anything to her.
"The last time I came to eat at his house, he still remembers me."
"So powerful? This old man has a good memory, so many guests every day, he can still remember you, maybe you left too much impression on him. β
In the afternoon, Zeng Le took them to the Great Wall again, considering that he would have to go to the banquet that Li Zekai would take him to in the evening, he didn't have dinner with them, and let them go back to the hotel to solve it by themselves.
After sending them back to the hotel, Zeng Le took a shower in his room, Li Zekai said that he would wear formal clothes at night, Zeng Le didn't have it, so he could only buy it, Li Zekai said that it would be too late to order a suit, so go to the mall to buy some bargains, barely able to fill the faΓ§ade.
Li Zekai said a few brands, although it is a bargain, but its price is not beautiful at all, Zeng Le remembered that those brands cost tens of thousands of yuan for a suit jacket, and there are hundreds of thousands, which are placed in the store, with clothes, pants, leather shoes and shirts, adding up to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Zeng Le was still wearing his own clothes when he came, the tattered short sleeves of high school, the patterns on the clothes were gone, and he really couldn't wear them, and he would be laughed at on big occasions, so he could only go out and buy them, and there happened to be a high-end shopping mall near the hotel.
When he went out, Zeng Le met Xiaoqing on the first floor, and seeing that Xiaoqing was about to go out, the two said hello.
"Xiaoqing, why did you come out on your own?"
"I'm going out for a walk, and Xiaobai is resting inside."
"Hehe, she has to climb the Great Wall, she doesn't have enough physical strength, and in the end she still suffers by herself."
"Hmm."
Xiaoqing still doesn't talk so much, this is up to Zeng Le to find a topic.
"Where are you going? Far away? β
"I want to buy a few books, and I've read all the books I brought."
"That's right."
Zeng Le was a little surprised, she was obviously traveling everywhere in the past two days, Xiaoqing still had time to read, and she finished reading the books she brought, not to mention how much she brought, just because she was willing to take the time to read the book, it was very good.
"I'm going to the mall to buy some clothes, it just so happens that the mall is nearby, and there is also a bookstore in it, let's go together."
ββ¦β¦β
Xiaoqing didn't reply, I don't know if I agreed or was embarrassed to say no, but Zeng Le couldn't refuse, so he took her and left.
"Let's go together, you are not familiar with this place, I am afraid that you will get lost."
Xiaoqing couldn't refuse this reason, and she was really afraid of getting lost.
The mall is nearby, walk along the street, and then turn a corner, it is very close, and Xiaoqing can walk back by herself.
To be able to open a bookstore in a shopping mall, and to be next to the big names, whether in the past or in the present life, there is only one chain bookstore, that is, Sisyfo Bookstore, under the banner of integrating local humanities, the chain store is open in large, medium and small cities across the country, and it is also doing cheap coffee drink business, which is a supporting industry.
Zeng Le didn't know whether to make money by opening a bookstore, he knew that this thing was too much inventory, and there was no huge capital, so he really couldn't play it, but Sisyphus did it, and it became the only chain bookstore in Yanxia that took the boutique route and succeeded, except for Xinhua with a terrifying background.
Xiaoqing has never seen it, because this year's Sisyfo has not yet opened a branch in Bingcheng, and no matter how much money they have, they can't burn the marginal provinces, and it is not easy for the mainland to bloom everywhere. As soon as she entered the door, Sissinfer's exquisite exterior decorations, as well as the warm atmosphere inside, coupled with the bookworms sitting on chairs reading books one after another, such an environment made Xiaoqing's eyes light up at once, and Zeng Le could see that she liked this place very much.
With a wide variety of books, there are two people-tall bookshelves lined up in rows, comparable to a miniature library, and the various categories of books are perfectly divided, making it easy to find the books you want to read. But unlike the academic books in the library, this is still a bookstore that makes money in business, focusing on commercial books, and you can read a lot of popular magazines and youth, but Xiaoqing walked over without even looking at those things.
Zeng Le and Xiaoqing took a few turns here, Xiaoqing picked up a book he liked, looked at it for half an hour, and suddenly noticed that Zeng Le was still here, and immediately blushed, he was too engrossed to notice him, but Zeng Le was also reading a Nalan word.
Xiaoqing covered half of his face with a book, this shy look, Zeng Le was very willing to look at it, and thought it was very beautiful.
"Sorry to delay you, aren't you going to buy clothes?"
"Huh? Don't worry, this Nalan word is very good, I like it very much, take it away in a while, do you see what you want to buy, how about the one in your hand? β
"Well, I want to take it with me, you still have something to do, why don't you go first, I still want to watch here for a while."
Zeng Leyan heard this, pretended to smile mysteriously, and said slowly:
"I just suddenly thought that if a beautiful woman comes to help me with the matching of clothes, I believe I will be very brilliant tonight, I wonder if the little green girl can help me with this?"
"Huh?"
Xiaoqing was a little surprised, but she didn't expect Zeng Le to let her help choose clothes, isn't this a ...... Isn't this what my girlfriend helped me do? Thinking of this, Xiaoqing's face turned even redder.
"I don't choose clothes either."
"That's better than male aesthetics, let's go."
"Okay, let me put these books on it, and go back directly after buying it, Xiaobai is still waiting for me, I was so fascinated by it just now that I forgot about it......"
Xiaoqing hugged four books, all of them were good books, Zeng Le noticed that Xiaoqing seemed to like ancient history and culture very much, and Xiaoqing had also read the book of Nalan words he just held.
Zeng Le originally wanted to pay, but Xiaoqing refused.
"You've helped us a lot, I can still afford these books, and I'll finish your books too, which can be regarded as an expression of my gratitude, although it's a little insignificant."
"It's okay, I'm happy."
"Nalan is beautiful, I hope you don't just be interested in it for a while, but read it to the end."
After settling the account, Xiaoqing handed over the Nalan word to Zeng Le's hand, looking at Xiaoqing's serious face, Zeng Le nodded and agreed.
"Okay, we can talk about it then."
Looking at Xiaoqing's delicate face, Zeng Le suddenly laughed, and a sentence came out, making Xiaoqing blush.
"After getting to know you, I understood what the ancients said, what Yan Ruyu means in the book, Xiaoqing girl, you are so beautiful, the ancient talented girl said that you are a person."
"No...... I'm still far from it. β
Taking advantage of the opportunity to be alone with Xiaoqing today, and being able to say a few more words to Xiaoqing, Zeng Le didn't want to miss the opportunity to brush up on his good feelings.
"By the way, I've known you for so long, I don't know what your name is, Xiaobai's name is Bai Ling'er, what about you?"
"My name is ...... Mu Qinghua. β
"Qinghua is the same as Qinghua University?"
"Yes, the name given by my parents can be regarded as their expectation and blessing to me."
"Then you were admitted to Qinghua to meet their expectations, this name is so beautiful."
Zeng Le couldn't help but think of a poem - "Love is like ink and blue flowers, why not be afraid of the moment." β
