Chapter 123 I am addicted to pretending to be a young couple
Seeing Qin Yanyue drinking soup slowly, he didn't seem to be in a hurry.
Bai Su glanced at the scrap recycling station diagonally opposite the state-owned hotel: "Secretary Qin, are you and Secretary Zhao in a hurry to go to Changfeng Commune? Can I go to the scrap recycling station opposite to find something?"
Zhao Ming felt that someone was too stubborn to talk.
Early in the morning, he was asked to drive the car to the entrance of the food factory and wait. It must be that he was on his way. Then Qian Jiayou said a few words to Sister Bai. He could smell the choking smell of gunpowder, and there was an indescribable feeling in the air.
Sour smell.
He said that Sister Bai and Director Qian were childhood sweethearts, which angered his secretary. Secretary Zhao always acted like a transparent person.
Bai Su said that she was going to the scrap collection station, and the transparent man couldn't hold back: "Sister Bai, what are you looking for?"
"Look for high school textbooks and exercise books."
Bai Su explained: "At first, Lanhua and Zhao Zhiqing wanted to learn high school knowledge. Now my second son-in-law, Zhou Changqing, is also studying with them, as well as the captain's son, Li Xiangyang."
"Hehua also said in the past few days that she would study with her second sister."
Hehua always ran quietly to the cowshed. Sometimes she didn't understand what Yin Fan said, so Hehua felt that she needed to learn more knowledge.
"The teaching materials that He Yan helped get before are not enough. I just want to take advantage of this visit to the county to get a few more sets back."
After hearing what Bai Su said, Secretary Zhao was surprised: "Sister Bai, do you have a second son-in-law?"
Secretary Zhao knew that Zhou Zhiqing, who was repatriated from the workers, peasants and soldiers, was a barefoot doctor in the Peace Brigade.
He knew that Zhou Zhiqing was close to Bai Su's second daughter, but he didn't expect that an educated youth with questionable status would be recognized by her mother-in-law so quickly and had already announced that he was her second son-in-law.
Different from Secretary Zhao's focus, Qin Yanyue is concerned about so many people starting to learn high school knowledge.
The policy in the capital was indeed loosened, but while still in the discussion stage, his comrade's sister had already caught the trend and asked her daughter and son-in-law to start learning high school knowledge, and also brought the captain's son with Zhao Zhiqing.
That strong feeling is back!
This is definitely not the insight a country woman should have.
Qin Yanyue finished his last mouthful of loofah and meat slices soup and put down his chopsticks: "I'll go to the scrap collection station with you."
no!
What is the identity of the secretary? Visiting the waste recycling station?
Zhao Ming really couldn't understand their secretary, and when they were near the school, he was unhappy because Sister Bai and Qian Jiayou chatted a few more words.
After finishing the meal, we went to the waste recycling station with him.
The old man guarding the door of the waste recycling station, when he saw Bai Su and Qin Yanyue, he knew they were not ordinary people.
"What are you looking for?"
"My daughter is in high school, and I wanted to find out if there are any high school practice questions."
Bai Su explained his purpose of coming, and the old man thought it made sense.
"There are not many people who are willing to study now. You two are clearly educated people at first glance. Come on, go in and find them quickly. Don't cause any trouble for me."
Bai Su wanted to deny his relationship with Qin Yanyue, but Qin Yanyue pulled her back, meaning not to say too much.
Just like that, under the urging of the old man with a look of disgust, Qin Yanyue pulled Bai Su into the scrap collection station.
Bai Su tripped over a mahogany chair with a broken leg and felt that the scrap collection depot was a treasure.
She found a clay horse covered in mud among a pile of ceramic shards.
Bai Su wiped off the mud on the pottery horse with his sleeve and recognized it as three-color glazed pottery. His eyes suddenly lit up: "I want this."
Qin Yanyue naturally recognized it. What she was holding was a Tang Sancai pottery.
Bai Su's subtle movements caught Qin Yanyue's eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled up.
Just when he thought the woman in front of him was worried and would stop, he misjudged the greed of an antique lover, because Bai Su simply squatted down and rummaged through a pile of worn-out ceramic shards.
When Bai Su actually dug out a intact ice-cracked bottle and a broken bowl stained with mud, the corners of Qin Yanyue's mouth twitched violently.
Not only are these things useless now, but having them in your home will also cause disaster.
He had to remind him: "You are here to find a book."
Bai Su then put down what he was holding angrily, and followed Qin Yanyue to find the utility room where the books were kept.
Qin Yanyue didn't mind being dirty, so he helped Bai Su dig through the dusty books, and they found a complete set of junior high and high school textbooks, as well as some exercises.
Of course, this time Bai Su found a bunch of books with missing and yellowing pages, the kind that were sewn with thread.
She carefully dug out a few relatively intact ones and placed them among the pile of high school textbooks they requested.
Carrying a large bundle of books and walking out, she was a little reluctant to part with the things she found among the broken porcelain pieces.
Qin Yanyue seemed to be helpless against her, so he picked up the pottery horse she found, wiped off the muddy area, smeared another layer of plaster on it, and then picked up the vase.
"I can't take any more. If you like it, let He Yan get used to it before you come in."
Bai Su also knew that because he came to the county town, wore new clothes made of pear blossoms, and was with the glamorous Qin Yanyue, he said he came in to look for books. Picking out too many rags would arouse suspicion.
She had no choice but to take the pottery horse and vase that Qin Yanyue had stained for her and follow him out.
"It took me a long time to find him."
When the old man saw that they finally came out, he looked disgusted: "What are you holding in your hands?"
"My wife and I just moved, and she picked up a broken vase and took it back to arrange flowers."
When Bai Su heard the word "daughter-in-law" from Qin Yanyue's mouth, he was so shocked that he couldn't help but glance at him.
Qin Yanyue, however, remained calm as he handed over a bundle of books tied with a rope: "How much do books cost per catty? How much do you weigh these books?"
Bai Su also held a Tang Sancai and a vase in his hand. Although the vase was stained with dust, the old man knew that it must not be damaged, so he picked it up and took it out.
He estimated that the book Qin Yanyue was carrying weighed only fifty or six cents.
"No need to weigh it, it's only one yuan."
Afraid that Qin Yanyue would readily pay for it, Bai Su just wanted to speak.
Qin Yanyue frowned: "One yuan is too expensive, eighty cents."
"You only paid 80 cents for so many books. The vase your wife is holding can still be used when she goes home. If you go out and buy one, it will cost more than 50 cents."
"Looking at how well you two are dressed, you wouldn't even want to give them an extra twenty cents."
After feeling disgusted, the old man said stubbornly: "One yuan is not a penny less. I won't sell it without giving you one yuan."
Qin Yanyue became addicted to pretending to be a couple in order not to arouse suspicion.
The dignified Secretary Qin, gossiping with others just for 20 cents?
Bai Su almost couldn't help laughing.
With the drama queen on his toes, Bai Su helped by saying, "Uncle, these books only cost sixty or seventy cents, otherwise I won't want this broken bottle."
