1970's Gangster Couple (MTL)

Chapter 47: Picking up Books

  "You...", Wang Juan realized that she couldn't speak to Xiao Xiao. I thought she married Wang Wei and gave her worker quota to her natal sister, but now she is pointed out by her husband's family, at least she will feel guilty.

But no, not only no, but Xiao Xiao was very calm.

It's useless to please, and it's useless to say harsh words. Wang Juan's face turned red, and she said: "This matter is not so easy to pass." Then she took her bag and left.

The woman next door opened the door with a secret expression on her face. It was obvious that she had just been lying on the door to eavesdrop.

Xiao Xiao nodded to her with a smile. Not only did she not object to exposing her relationship with Wang Juan, but she was happy to see it succeed. This woman looks like a gossip at first glance, and it is estimated that the dispute with Wang Juan will be publicized by her soon.

Otherwise, Xiao Xiao didn't like to let others watch.

The woman Wang Juan called Sister Qin felt guilty when she saw that she had eavesdropped on someone else's words and that Xiao Xiao was still smiling so nicely at her.

Xiao Xiao closed the door, tidied up, and went out with a cloth bag.

She has been here for so long, and she hasn't had a chance to touch the books here. She originally wanted to see if there were any bookstores on the street, but she couldn't find anything after searching around.

Xiao Xiao frowned, it was impossible for her to go to someone's house and ask if there were any books.

Just as she was thinking, an old man pulling a cart walked past her. Xiao Xiao glanced over the cart, and suddenly found that there were many books under most of the cardboard shell.

Xiao Xiao watched the old man pull the cart into a courtyard, she hurriedly followed and entered the courtyard gate, only to find that there were all kinds of rubbish inside.

The uncle unloaded the things on the cart, threw them on the ground casually, turned around and saw Xiao Xiao, and asked doubtfully, "Who are you looking for?" Xiao Xiao smiled at the

uncle: "Master, may I ask where all these books will be shipped to ?" ?"

The uncle kicked a book with his foot: "What are you talking about? Of course it was transported outside the city to be destroyed. Now everyone doesn't like to read, what do you need books for?"

Hearing what the uncle said, Xiao Xiao felt angry. These are all knowledge, but now they are discarded like shoes. Without human beings' tireless thirst for knowledge, there would not be a human race that could gain a firm foothold in the interstellar world and gradually grow even though its physical fitness was so different from other races.

Even though he knew that this was a special situation under certain historical conditions, Xiao Xiao couldn't help feeling distressed. She knelt down and picked out the books that seemed to be in good condition one by one and stacked them beside her. "This lesbian, do you want these books to take them back to start a fire?" The uncle was not surprised to see Xiao Xiao kept picking up books. Many people picked up papers from him and went back to start a fire. Xiao Xiao didn't say yes or deny it, but asked: "Can these be taken away?" 

The uncle said indifferently: "Take it, anyway, they are old books that no one wants." In class, other local schools are simply in a semi-abandoned state. Xiao Xiao pursed her lips when she heard this, and left after filling a bag full of books. 

As soon as she walked to the door of the dormitory, she saw Wang Wei hurriedly opened the door with an anxious expression on her face, and when she saw her, she hurriedly stopped her: "Where have you been?"
