Chapter 115: America's Town
I originally just wanted to go to Wenxin Bookstore to have a look and explain a few words to Cai Xiaohong, after all, I thought that Xiaohong might really quit next semester, and I still felt a little reluctant in my heart, although I would definitely transfer this Wenxin Bookstore after the Spring Festival.
Seeing Bao Lina standing there, I didn't want to step forward, because I didn't know what to say to her, I couldn't just say, long time no see, the weather is really nice today, and so on.
At this moment, Cai Xiaohong saw me and raised her hand to say hello to me. I had no choice but to step forward and say to Bao Lina, "Long time no see." ”
Bao Lina looked up and saw me with no special expression on her face, as if she was seeing a classmate, neither excited nor complaining. She replied coldly, "Well, long time no see." ”
I stood there and watched her load the book and said, "You bought it?"
Lina said, "Well, I bought it." ”
"How do you buy so many books?"
"Come home during winter vacation, bored, read more books."
"Oh, which books are they?" As I spoke, I looked curiously into her bag.
Bao Lina suddenly closed the zipper of her travel bag.
I said unhappily: "Baozi, you're so stingy, can't you look at it?"
Bao Lina replied indifferently: "You are the owner of the bookstore, just look at the shipping list?" Also, don't call me Baozi anymore. ”
Cai Xiaohong couldn't help but burst out laughing next to her, and said helpfully: "Yes, Boss Zhou, I have kept the account." ”
I couldn't cry or laugh, and I didn't take Bao Lina, so I asked again: "When are you going home?"
Bao Lina still looked very tugging, put the travel bag on her back and said, "Now." ”
After saying that, she carried the bag on her back and walked away, without looking back at me at all.
Cai Xiaohong looked at her back, then looked at my embarrassed face, and said with a little sarcasm: "Boss Zhou, don't be too disappointed, she bought twelve books in one go today, and she didn't discount them at all, she is really a good customer." ”
I said hatefully: "If you call me Boss Zhou again, I will call you Boss Lady!"
Cai Xiaohong snorted again, covered her mouth and laughed silently. finally took a breath and said, "You can't scream, be careful that Li Yun cuts you with a machete." ”
I pulled down my face and asked seriously, "Xiaohong, you really don't want to do the work of the bookstore anymore?"
Cai Xiaohong also stopped smiling and said, "It's true, I got two tutoring jobs next semester." ”
I sighed and said, "What can I do, my bookstore is about to open, and I really need a girl like you to be the store manager." ”
Unexpectedly, Cai Xiaohong said in a surprising voice: "You're not afraid of me?"
I was surprised and asked, "What am I afraid of you?"
Cai Xiaohong said to herself: "Forget it, you nonsense person is not afraid to see me, but I am afraid to see you every day." ”
"What did you say?" I leaned in and asked her, "What are you muttering?" ”
Cai Xiaohong said: "If you don't hear it, forget it, I'm leaving." ”
"What?" I looked at her in even greater amazement, and today I realized that my nervous system had become extremely dull, and my logical thinking was in shambles.
Xiaohong said to me loudly: "I said I'm leaving, Puguang is here for my class, today is the last day!"
With that, she pointed her finger behind me. As soon as I turned around, I saw Puguang standing silently behind me, looking at me with a Mona Lisa smile that scared me so much that I almost jumped.
"Puguang, what are you doing, why don't you make any sound at all, I'm almost scared to death by you." I complained.
Jin Puguang was still smiling and said, "I see that you are inspecting the work, so it is inconvenient to disturb you." ”
Xiaohong said hello to Puguang and left, and like Bao Lina, she didn't look back at me. All of a sudden, I thought both of these girls were a little weird.
Two days before the Spring Festival, I took Li Yun back to my home, and as soon as I entered the door, I was surprised to find that it was Han Meiling who was sitting on the sofa with my father in Kandashan.
"Hey, Brother Xiaoxu, you're here!" As soon as Meiling saw me, she was like when she was a child (I guess, because I can't remember what she was like when she was a child, but this innocent feeling can never be wrong), jumped up from the sofa with a loud cry, grabbed my hand, and said there: "Brother Xiaoxu, I just came back from the United States, I will go to school in the United States next year, not this year, after the Spring Festival." ”
"You're going to the United States?" I looked at this innocent little girl in amazement, "Oh, I forgot, you're old enough to go to college." ”
"Look at your little brother, you always treat me like a child." Han Meiling said dissatisfied. Then he turned around and grabbed Li Yun's hand again, "Sister Li Yun, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you." Saying that, he also gave Li Yun a warm hug, which made Li Yun blush embarrassedly, it is estimated that no girl has hugged Li Yun so affectionately.
I sighed to myself, it seems that this Han Meiling is really suitable for living in the United States, and her personality is as big and casual as an American.
Finally, Han Meiling showed her enthusiasm to the fullest, and a few of us sat on the sofa and chatted. My father told me that Han Meiling was admitted to the University of California, majoring in film and television technology, and he admired it very much, as if his daughter was admitted to a university in the United States.
Han Meiling said that she went to the United States in April, first went there to take short-term language classes, and officially entered an American university in the second half of the year, and she was nervous and excited. She also said: "Brother Xiaoxu, if I can't study, I will return to China again, and then I will be admitted to the university you are in, I will be your little junior sister, haha!"
Her delicate "little junior sister" and the smug laughter made Li Yun frown and look unhappy. Han Meiling also saw that Li Yun was unhappy, and hurriedly said: "Sister Xiaoyun, don't be upset, I won't rob Brother Xiaoxu with you, don't worry." He laughed out loud without hesitation.
For a while, me, my dad and Li Yun were all "petrified" there for half a minute.
At dinner in the evening, this Han Meiling was still talking loudly about what she had seen and heard about returning from the United States, from Colorado to California beaches, and took out a photo with the American police from her bag to show us.
"Wow, Sister Li Yun, you see, this American policeman is so handsome, polite and handsome. Brother Xiaoxu, people are much more handsome than you, look at it, look at it. ”
No one else had a chance to intervene at the entire dinner table, leaving Han Meiling to give a speech there.
"Brother Xiaoxu, the small town in the western United States is really beautiful, and there is a big lake that I can't name, the water is so beautiful and clean, I like it so much."
Saying that, she also circulated a photo of her sitting on a small boat to us, in the photo, Han Meiling was wearing a white dress, sitting on the bow of the boat, looking delicate and pure, Chu Chu touching. The boat is drifting on the blue lake, and the sky is also blue, and it is really intoxicatingly beautiful.
