After a while, Wang Jiaping and Yuanyuan arrived in the bustling Hejiang Town, Yuanyuan remembered the letter sent to Ye Yuming, I don't know if he received it? I don't know if he's in a better mood? Did Daddy's visit bring them any comfort? This is the town of Hejiang where he lives, the streets are not spacious, there are steaming breakfast noodle restaurants, fried glutinous rice cakes with the smell of oil, there are quiet small clinics, and a little black dog with smooth hair and a bone in his mouth drilled through the crowd.

In order to save time, and also afraid that the sun is strong at noon and the temperature is high, so I have to rush back early, Wang Jiaping turned back to Yuanyuan and said: "You ask, where is the bookstore, you go to see it for a while, come here and wait for me, look, remember the gate of this farmers' market, I will buy a few flower threads, and I will come back here soon." ”

As if hearing good news, Yuan Yuan said in a refreshing voice: "Okay, you must wait for me, I will be very fast." ”

Yuan Yuan saw a girl who looked like a student beside him, and asked anxiously: "Little sister, may I ask you, where is the bookstore in Hejiang Town?" The girl pursed her lips and smiled, stretched out her hand to the corner across the road, and said, "You go to the corner, walk a little forward, that's it." ”

"Oh, oh, thank you!" Yuan Yuan thanked him repeatedly, and his mood was as excited as a bulging sail.

When I came to the Xinhua Bookstore in Hejiang Town, Yuanyuan was busy like a child catching Zhou, looking at the counter of books and magazines, where there were magazines such as "Popular Film" and "Story Club", and then looking at the counter of the literary series, where there were thick "Goethe's Poems", "Youth Masterpieces", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and "People, People" written by Dai Houying, under the glass counter, there were "Qiaodu Xiling Gorge", "Railway Guerrillas", "Good Things and Many Grinds"...... She stared at the glass on the counter and looked down, she looked at the cover of each book, she saw "Two Hundred Cases of Chinese in the Third Year of High School", and "Two Hundred Cases of English in the Third Year of High School", she asked the tall waiter brother to help her pull out these two books from the counter, and the waiter brother took out these two books in response to her needs and handed them to Yuanyuan.

Yuan Yuan took the book, looked at it twice, and bought it with money, she looked up at the bookcase behind the waiter, the date displayed on the hanging calendar, it was the eighth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and it would soon be the birthday of her best friend Yu Xiumei, and the solar calendar was already the second day of August.

It's been a busy time in the mud and water, and I don't know what time it is. Alas, there is no money to buy the "Youth Masterpiece Collection", so you must buy a small gift for Yu Xiumei.

She saw several bamboo pen holders on the display table, which were engraved with the words "There is a road and a diligent path in the book mountain, and there is no end to the sea of learning." Another pen holder engraved with the words "step by step", Yuan Yuan thought about it, to see that the pen holder engraved with "step by step" meaning is very good, the price is also within their own capacity, immediately count the money and hand it to the waiter brother, the waiter brother just put the money in the drawer, turned around to see a fifteen or sixteen-year-old flat-headed boy, was standing on tiptoe, stretched out his arms, bent into the counter, took away a book, is "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", turned around and ran out.

What the boy didn't expect was that his arm was clutched by a strong, powerful hand. "Bastard, stealing books?" The waiter's eldest brother scolded and hurriedly ran out of the counter.

"How dare you go to the bookstore and steal books?" Xiao Pingtou looked back in horror, a slender young man with delicate eyebrows was leaning over, dragging his arm stubbornly, only to see that the young man's sword eyebrows were raised, and a ball of anger was emerging in his bright eyes at this moment.

"What are you doing here? Run to the store to steal the book, go, follow me to the police station. The waiter's eldest brother was so angry that he was panting, "It's really unreasonable!" ”

With a "bang", the "Legend of the Condor Heroes" in Xiao Pingtou's hand fell to the ground, and the pages of the book spread out, "I...... I...... Last week, I made up classes in school, borrowed a copy of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" from my classmates, peeked at it in class, and was confiscated by the teacher, and my classmates asked me for this book every day, and beat me several times, I ...... I don't have any money in my hand, no, I can't help it...... I'll kneel for you, don't ,...... Don't send me to the police station, I'll correct it and never do this kind of thing again, okay? As he spoke, Xiao Pingtou knelt at the feet of the waiter's eldest brother with a "plop".

Yuan Yuan put away the pen holder, stepped forward, picked up the copy of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", flipped to the back and looked at the price, and said: "This book has fallen like this, I helped him buy it, so as to save his classmates from beating him again." She turned back to Xiao Pingtou and said fiercely, "When you were a child, you stole needles, and when you grow up, you must correct it in the future, and there is no way, and you can't steal other people's things, you know?" ”

Xiao Pingtou knelt on the ground at the moment, already in tears, his head hung down to the ground, he blushed, nodded deeply, stood up and ran out, Yuanyuan sorted out the book money and handed it to the waiter's eldest brother, chased up, and stuffed the "Legend of the Condor Heroes" into Xiao Pingtou's hand. said: "I bought it and gave it to you, if you want to know your mistakes, you can correct them, read extracurricular books in class, it will affect your learning, go back and return the books." ”

Xiao Pingtou turned around and asked Yuanyuan: "Sister, where do you live?" When I have money, I will definitely pay you back. ”

"Don't take this to heart, remember to study hard in class!" Yuan Yuan said.

Xiao Ping raised his head and glanced at Yuanyuan, and said, "I won't do this again in the future, please believe me." With that, he ran away, and the wind blew open the hem of his two-button shirt.

At this time, the young man who was stunned next to him spoke: "How can you be like this? You're hurting him. ”

Yuan Yuan turned his head to look at him when he heard the sound, only to see his brows furrowed, and he was holding a book of "Cotton High Yield Technical Knowledge" in his hand, Yuan Yuan raised his eyebrows and said: "I don't think he is an incorrigible teenager, he must be like he said, the classmate who borrowed the book beat him, he has no choice, cai, cai." ”

"Even then, he can't come and steal the book!" The young man said sharply, denouncing Yuanyuan's abusive behavior.

"I have been a lover of reading since I was a child, and I have a feeling of sympathy for people who love to read, I also once and my younger brother (Sanmao), playing pigweed in the field next to our elementary school, and saw a magazine with a broken title page at the door of the teacher's dormitory, so I took it back to read, in that magazine, there was "Garland Under the Mountain", it was very beautiful, and after reading the book, I remembered, take back this book, is it a hand? The next day, I returned the magazine early in the morning. After saying that, Yuanyuan's face was full of pink.

"Ahh Yes? ......" The young man was speechless and looked at Yuan Yuan in a daze.

Yuan Yuan glanced at his handsome face, her heart throbbed inexplicably, she left in a hurry, and the bamboo pen holder, with a "bell", fell to the ground and rolled to the feet of the young man.
