After Gu Mai came out of the library, he proposed to go to the bookstore and wanted to buy a few medical books.

The two of them inquired all the way and found Xinhua Bookstore.

Gu Mai carefully selected a few books that had new insights into Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and these theories would also be confirmed in the future.

It cost a total of three yuan, and the money I earned from hunting and selling vegetables was just what I needed.

He Beichen saw an English book with the words of bean sprouts on it, which made him very curious. "These ...... Is it a foreign language? ”

Gu Mai glanced at it. "Yes, I used to see that there was an old gentleman in my family who had this book, and I heard that he came back from studying in England."

This book is an English book, but each sentence is marked with Chinese characters under the phonetics, that is, the sentences are read according to the Chinese characters.

It is naturally incorrect to learn English in this way, but in this era, when there is no tape recorder and no teacher can learn, it is also a way to learn.

He Beichen put it in his hand with great interest, and then began to look for other books.

"What are you looking for? We can find it together. Gu Mai asked.

He Beichen said as he stroked the books in rows. "I think there should be a dictionary in English, just like our Chinese characters. I have to prepare the reference book, otherwise there is no way to learn it. ”

Gu Mai thought to himself that this young man really had brains, he could think of this, and he could think of it in the future, and this must be a top student. Gu Mai glanced at it, and then pointed to a very high position. "That'...... The dictionary is there. ”

He Beichen didn't need to lift his feet at all, he got the dictionary as soon as he stretched out his hand.

This English dictionary is supposed to be a book from many years ago, the year is 1950, and there is a thick layer of dust on it, so no one should have bought it at all, so it falls very high.

Gu Mai glanced at the price and was really taken aback. "It's only five cents, big brother, you earned this dictionary."

This kind of genuine dictionary will rise to at least a dozen yuan a copy in the future, and of course more than 100 copies in the future, but it will be reprinted, and the paper industry will be much better.

"......" He Beichen took a copy.

Gu Mai hurriedly bought the remaining copies at one time.

He Beichen looked at her incomprehensibly. "What are you buying so many dictionaries for?"

Gu Mai smiled. "Hehe, I also want to study, it's not very expensive anyway, buy a few more."

He Beichen smiled. "No matter how many copies, the content is the same."

"Oh...... I'm worried that the book will be moldy, and the mold is not because I can't see the content clearly, so prepare a few more copies, and if this one is moldy, I will read another one. Gu Mai struggled to find a lame excuse.

I couldn't tell him that she was going to buy and sell in the future, it would frighten him, and she could have such thoughts.

He Beichen didn't ask her anything again, and after she checked out, he helped her fight all the books.

By the time they returned to the military region, it was already late.

He Beichen sent Gu Mai to the door of the women's dormitory, and Gu Mai waved his hand to He Beichen. "Tomorrow, let's learn English together."

"Okay, we have to supervise each other and not be lazy." He Beichen touched her head.

"Hmm."

Gu Mai carried the dictionary and returned to the girls' dormitory.

He Beichen also walked towards the men's dormitory.

Under the woods not far away, Gu Sijia shook Feng Juan. "Mother, Gu Mai went out with the man at night, it's really shameless, should we tell Dad."
