Chapter 246: It's getting better and better
One of the teenagers stopped the other.
"This is the book I borrowed, you give it back to me, I haven't finished reading it yet."
The other one hid a novel behind him and tried to escape.
"Oh, you just let me finish reading it and give it to you, just one night, one night, if it's okay, I promise to return it to you tomorrow morning."
Xie Yuanjiu's heart moved, it looked like Sun Zhou and him when he was studying, could it be that they borrowed the book from Sun Zhou?
Regardless of whether it is or not, try your luck.
"Little brother, can you tell us where you borrowed your books?"
When the two saw that there were outsiders, they didn't argue anymore and pointed to an alley not far away.
"You don't know this, just turn from this alley, turn left and right, and where there is a big elm tree outside, just look for the monkey."
It's really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
Xie Yuanjiu didn't feel any pain in his legs, said thank you and walked over there, and sure enough, after only walking for ten minutes, he saw a row of low red brick houses.
He saw Sun Zhou, who hadn't seen him for a few months, and the whole person seemed to have undergone a lot of vicissitudes, as if he was thinner than before, with a scruffy beard, and was squatting under the eaves to make a fire and cook.
He called out to Sun Monkey, and his eyes turned red first.
Sun Zhou didn't react at first, and when he turned back, he couldn't believe his eyes, and then he began to laugh, but that smile was even more ugly than crying.
He rushed over and punched Xie Yuanjiu in the shoulder as he had done before.
"Why did you kid come to the provincial capital?"
Xie Yuanjiu began to complain about him.
"You said that you, you have been gone for so long, why don't you send me a letter, don't write to me, and don't tell Yu Hui about your own situation, do you know how worried your family is."
Sun Zhou pointed to the room of a few square meters he rented in self-deprecation, in that room, after a bed was placed, there was almost no other things to put in, even cooking and eating could only be under the eaves.
"I'm like this, don't mention it, I don't have the face to contact you, and I'm afraid that Yu Hui will worry, didn't I write a letter to her, telling her not to worry about me, Xie Yuanjiu, have you been to my house, are she and the child okay?"
His nervous appearance made even Yao Wenjing's heart on the side tighten, and she immediately felt that this man was a good father, and she couldn't help but say something.
"They're all fine, they're just worried about you."
It was only at this time that Sun Zhou found that there was a girl beside Xie Yuanjiu who looked like this, and he looked back and forth at the two of them, so he asked.
"Xie Yuanjiu, it's okay."
Xie Yuanjiu knew that he would definitely misunderstand him and Yao Wenjing again, just like Han Dong at the beginning, and hurriedly diverted the topic.
"Fortunately, I saw two children who rented books, otherwise I really couldn't find you, what's the matter, do you also open a rental book stall in the provincial capital, it should be much older than your hometown and county."
Sun Zhou sighed, moved out a folded wooden table, and asked the neighbor's aunt for a bowl of kimchi, so he had to beckon Xie Yuanjiu and Yao Wenjing to eat.
"Don't be disgusted, that's all."
Yao Wenjing's eyesight is good, while they are talking, he has already gone to a braised meat stall outside to buy two catties of braised meat and come back, Sun Zhou is a little embarrassed, but recently the money is really tight, and he has not been polite to Xie Yuanjiu.
At the dinner table, Sun Zhou talked about what had happened these days.
After climbing the train from the county seat to the provincial capital, Sun Zhou didn't have many books on his body, and he was deceived by the small vendors who bullied the market in the county, and he had nothing to rely on to survive, so he could only go to the dock to carry his bag, because he was small, his strength was small, and he didn't earn much.
"Now it's okay, I've bought some books again, this provincial city is still good, I have resources for any book I want, I have hundreds of novels here, only when the dock is more active, the foreman called me to carry the bag, anyway, if I rob them, I can't rob them, usually I go to a nearby market to set up a stall, and I go back to my old business, and the business is much better than before."
That night, they talked a lot, and also talked about Luo Jinshan, it is estimated that it is not far from his overturn, Sun Zhou listened heartily, knowing that Xie Yuanjiu and they also made a lot of money by reselling Cordyceps, and they were happy for them.
As he was leaving, he hesitated, knowing that Xie Yuanjiu and the others would not leave until a few days.
"Xie Yuanjiu, when you are leaving, can you come to me again, I want to bring something back to the family."
He thought, taking advantage of these two days to make more money, he knew that he wouldn't buy those books a few days ago, but now he has a little bit of a tight hand.
"Okay, I'll come to you with Jing Yatou when the time comes."
