Chapter 42: The Shopkeeper

After Bei Xiaoya over there solved the flower shirt, she walked to the side to pick up the books on the ground. It's just that she had just picked up a few copies when the shopkeeper came over and led her to the counter.

"I'm really sorry to make you like this." Bei Xiaoya looked at the chaos in the house like a scrap station, and felt very guilty.

"Don't worry, it's going to close here soon, anyway, it's going to be messy." The shopkeeper waved his hand indifferently, and then handed over the book he had obtained for her.

Bei Xiaoya wanted to ask why it was closed, but seeing that the bookstore's business was so bleak, she swallowed the question back. Don't poke a knife in someone's heart, who wants to close the door if the business is good.

The shopkeeper no longer cared about the room, and sat down at the counter and read the book. The serious look was the same as when Bei Xiaoya first entered the door, as if nothing had happened just now.

Bei Xiaoya stared at the group of people packing up their things, and then looked bored, so she also lowered her head and flipped through the shopkeeper to get a new book, and unconsciously fell into fascination.

By this time, the bookshelves in the room had been propped up, and the group of people were each squatting on the ground to collect the books at their feet. For a while, the room was very clean except for the sound of books stacked together.

…………

Yu Yang on the other side had already finished his report and drove out of the town command center in an off-road vehicle. Unlike before I went, there was one more person in the co-pilot of the car. This person is also a soldier, different from Yu Yang, he always has a smile on his face, he is happy to see everyone, and he looks very easy to get along with. Yu Yang refused to let him get into the car at first, but he was too thick-skinned, and he sat in the driver's seat and said that he didn't want to get down.

"I heard a few days ago that you took your daughter-in-law over, and I must see such a good opportunity today." The man stared ahead, and took it for granted.

"Aren't you going back soon, and goodbye will not be the same." Yu Yang was a little helpless about his rogue behavior.

"It's going to be a few days, isn't it?" The man gestured with his finger in front of his eyes, and he looked like I couldn't wait.

Yu Yang shook his head amusedly, "It's okay to take you to see you, but don't forget to call your sister-in-law for a while." ”

The man was very unconvinced when he heard this, "Shouldn't it be a younger brother and sister?" ”

Yu Yang also rarely had a childlike relationship with him, stretched out two fingers and said, "I'm older than you, and two hours older is also bigger." ”

The man opened his hand with a look of disgust, and muttered, "Who knows if your two hours are true or not, I thought you were fooling me from the beginning." ”

Yu Yang smiled triumphantly, and then the two of them fell silent. The car continued to drive on the way to the market, and after a long while, the co-pilot spoke again, only this time there was no smile on his face and his tone was a little heavy.

"I went to the county for a meeting a few days ago and met the captain."

When Yu Yang heard the word captain, his hand holding the steering wheel unconsciously strained a little, and his face changed. The man seemed to have known that he would react this way, so he didn't even twist his head.

"He's in much better shape now, and he's talking a little bit more than before." After the man said this, he glanced at him distressedly, "You should also come out, don't press it." ”

Yu Yang couldn't say a word, just frowned with self-blame, his face was full of guilt, and the people who watched it were very reluctant.

"Every time you go on a mission, you take your life, I know you want to return this life as soon as possible, I didn't know how to persuade you before, but now that you have a family, I have to say a few words to you. In the future, your life is not tight, it is your own, and if you marry someone else, you will be responsible for others, so take care of it. The man rested his head back in his chair and closed his eyes and did not speak.

Yu Yang listened to his words, his hand involuntarily touched another cigarette and put it in his mouth, and after a few puffs, he replied tiredly, "I'm sorry for worrying you for the past two years." ”

When the man heard him say this, his nose immediately became sore. He raised his hand and pulled down the hat on his head and put it over his face, not wanting people to see his red eyes.

The two men then fell silent again, and the car soon arrived at the market entrance. The man took off his hat and returned to his original appearance, he pushed out the door and jumped out of the car briskly, Yu Yang turned off the car and walked down.

"Which is your daughter-in-law?" The man crossed his hands and watched the people coming and going at the entrance of the market.

Yu Yang looked nearby, but didn't see Bei Xiaoya.

"Do you know where there is a bookstore here?" He thought for a moment and asked the man.

The man nodded back, "Yes." ”

"Then let's go over." Yu Yang subconsciously thought that the bookstore was inside, so he raised his feet and walked inside.

The man didn't stop him, and walked back to the car without making a sound, and when Yang found that he hadn't followed, he said with a hippie smile: "Not on this street, we're going to drive over." After saying that, he fled back to the co-pilot.

Yu Yang saw his smug appearance, so he shook his head helplessly and walked back to the car.

The bookstore was also a quick drive down another main road, and the car stopped in less than five minutes at its door. The man seemed to be familiar with this place, and when he got out of the car, he went straight inside and walked in, followed by Yu Yang.

As soon as the two men entered the store, they were confused by the situation in front of them, and there were more than a dozen people crowded into the small store. All of them have blue noses and swollen faces, and they are still working hard and complaining. On the other side, Bei Xiaoya and a girl sat at the counter reading a book, and they didn't even notice that they came in.

Yu Yang and the man glanced at each other, then walked up to Bei Xiaoya and knocked on the table. Bei Xiaoya heard the sound, and then took her eyes off the book.

"Are you done?" At first glance, Bei Xiaoya was a little surprised.

Yu Yang nodded and beckoned her to come out. Bei Xiaoya closed the book, walked to him obediently and stopped.

"Did it hurt?" Yu Yang watched her fold up her clothes, raised his hand to help her tidy up, and rubbed her head with peace of mind when he saw that there were no footprints or bruises on her body.

Bei Xiaoya glanced at the room full of people, took a step back writhingly, avoided his touch, and her face was a little crimson for a while. Yu Yang looked at her delicate appearance, and there was a smile on the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"Ahem." The person who was left to dry on the side couldn't bear to clear his throat.

Only then did Bei Xiaoya notice that there was still a person standing behind Yu Yang, and I saw that he was tall and strong, although his skin was darker than Yu Yang's, but his face was sunny, and he looked very distant.

"This is my brother and sister, right?" Seeing that the two of them finally discovered his existence, the man hurriedly waved his hand to say hello to Bei Xiaoya.

Without waiting for Bei Xiaoya to reply, Yu Yang glanced at him first and corrected, "It's sister-in-law." ”

The man didn't look at him, and directly introduced to Bei Xiaoya, "I am Lin Nan, Yu Yang's comrade-in-arms." Did you hear him talk about me? There was some certainty in his eyes.

Bei Xiaoya laughed dryly, she really hadn't heard it. Yu Yang and the others are on the road of quarreling and preparing to quarrel every day, where do they have time to talk about others.
