Chapter 111 Discussion
Zeng Lao, who went back to the house and sat quietly, sighed in his heart, he never thought that Lin Lao could teach people to read and write, it was really not like his previous style.

Zeng Lao was originally a college student of the Republic of China who came from a well-educated family. He even stayed abroad for a year. Later, seeing the country's chaos and the nation's crisis, he abandoned his pen and joined the army. , half of his arm is missing, but unfortunately he has been in trouble for half of his life. More than ten years ago, he couldn't get used to Xiao Xiao Tiaoliang, so he retreated in anger and retired to this small place in Lanling County, where he picked up his old calligraphy and pen again.

Although he left that position on his own initiative, his personality made him unable to let go of it for a long time, and he felt very aggrieved. He refused the people arranged by his superiors to serve him, and lived here alone awkwardly.

After more than ten years, he finally began to slowly let go of his knots, disheartened about everything before, and thought about renting out a room, which might add some fireworks to his lonely life like a grave.

I didn't want to, but I recruited a girl like Li Xiuxiu.

With a kind heart, he is willing to cook three meals a day for this bad old man. He was also the young master of everyone, and he used to be well-clothed and well-fed. Now he can eat the exquisite food made by this girl, which evokes his long-closed memories in the past.

Positive and motivated, able to listen to my own sour words, like a little green tree that breaks out of the ground, absorbs all the sunlight and rain that can be absorbed, and strives to grow upwards, full of vitality.

This vitality moved him very much, reminding him of when he was young and frivolous.

Mr. Zeng spent a long time in the room reminiscing about the touch Li Xiuxiu brought him, as well as his past.

Outside, Li Xiuxiu happily counted the tools she needed: pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Li Xiuxiu couldn't wait to go straight to the supply and marketing cooperative with the most complete range of goods in Lanling County.

In the supply and marketing agency, Li Xiuxiu was looking at the products on the shelves.

"Xiuxiu—" She heard someone calling her name loudly, she turned her head, and a big hand slapped her shoulder.

"It's really you!" Liu Chunlin stood next to Li Xiuxiu with an excited face, and shouted happily, attracting the attention of the people around him.

Li Xiuxiu saw that it was Liu Chunlin, and was also very happy. Seeing the reactions of the people around her out of the corner of her eye, she quickly stretched out her hand to pull his arm, and whispered, "Let's talk aside." Then she pulled Liu Chunlin and walked outside the supply and marketing cooperative. .

"Brother Liu Chunlin—" Li Xiuxiu was interrupted by Liu Chunlin when he spoke.

"What's your name, Brother Liu Chunlin? He's unfamiliar, and he's calling me old." Liu Chunlin said with a hearty smile, "Just call me Chunlin. Didn't I say it before?"

"Okay, Chun Lin." Li Xiuxiu felt very awkward, but Liu Chunlin was happy as long as it was just a title.

Liu Chunlin didn't wait for Li Xiuxiu to speak, and said in surprise: "Oh, Xiuxiu, you are really different from the last time we met. You are whiter and prettier than before, your hair has also turned black, and your temperament is also different. .”

Li Xiuxiu said with a smile: "Nothing looks better, it's all the same."

"Really." Liu Chunlin said seriously.

Li Xiuxiu interrupted him, not wanting to continue this topic, she couldn't get used to talking about her appearance with a man whom she had only met twice, and asked, "Did you come to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something?"

"Ah, yes!" Liu Chunlin slapped his thigh and asked, "Why are you in Lanling County? Isn't it in Jiangtian City? When did you come to Lanling? Are you used to living in this poor place?" Then, without waiting for Li Xiuxiu to answer, she said, "I heard from our battalion commander that you were in Lanling, but I still didn't believe it. I didn't expect you to be here. Are you here to buy something?"

Li Xiuxiu was asked a lot of questions by Liu Chunlin and didn't know how to answer them. He even heard that Zhou Shaojie also knew that he was in Lanling County, so he was a little nervous. Would it cause him trouble?She randomly answered Liu Chunlin's last question: "I'll buy some paper and pens."

Liu Chunlin asked: "Have you bought it yet? If not, I will buy it for you." Turning around, he was about to squeeze into the supply and marketing cooperative.

Really impatient, Li Xiuxiu quickly grabbed him and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, you don't know what pen and paper I want to buy."

"That's right, what kind of pen and paper do you want to buy? Our battalion commander told me to ask if you have any difficulties. If you have any problems, I will help you solve them." Liu Chunlin said.

Battalion Commander Zhou actually still thought about her and cared about her, which moved Li Xiuxiu for a moment, but he didn't know that Zhou Shaojie ordered Liu Chunlin like this just to explain to Chu Tianqi and because he felt a little guilty for her before.

Li Xiuxiu asked back, "What do you want to buy?"

"Our battalion commander asked me to buy a case of Shaodaozi wine and go back."

"Is it your battalion commander drinking?"

Liu Chunlin reckoned and said, "Half of it must have entered our battalion commander's stomach."

Li Xiuxiu asked again: "Is it just drinking? Or is there food?"

Liu Chunlin grinned and said, "We are soldiers, crawling in muddy water, drinking like no snacks."

Doesn't that hurt your stomach?Li Xiuxiu said in her heart that she remembered a pot of beef jerky that was marinated at home. She planned to make snacks for herself and Mr. Zeng. The beef jerky would be ready tomorrow, so why not just give it to Liu Chunlin and bring it back to serve Zhou Shaojie a drink. , she will make another pot for Mr. Zeng.

Li Xiuxiu said, "I don't think you bought any wine, did you?"

"alright."

"Then let's go in and buy together. You buy your wine, and I buy my pen and paper."

"That!"

So the two squeezed back to the supply and marketing cooperative, Liu Chunlin bought a case of wine, and Li Xiuxiu bought pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

Liu Chunlin looked at the things in Li Xiuxiu's hand and asked, "Do you want to use it yourself?"

"Yeah, I have nothing to do, just practice calligraphy." Li Xiuxiu replied.

"Isn't it popular to write with a pen now? Who still uses a brush?" Liu Chunlin said.

But being able to write good-looking brush characters will be a pretentious thing in a few decades, can she say that?No, so Li Xiuxiu said, "I'm just curious about calligraphy."

Liu Chunlin tilted his head and said, "Where do you live, go, I'll drive you there."

Li Xiuxiu smiled and said, "Okay, I happen to have something for you too."

"What is it?" Liu Chunlin asked with bright eyes.

"Beef jerky."

"Sounds like a good thing!" Meat is still relatively scarce in this era, and it took Li Xiuxiu a lot of effort to get it.

Li Xiuxiu laughed, and she tentatively asked, "Chunlin, can we discuss something?"

"What's the matter, just say it!" Liu Chunlin was very straightforward.

"Just can you not tell your Battalion Commander Zhou about meeting me in Lanling County?" Li Xiuxiu looked at Liu Chunlin and said.

 It will be on the shelves next week. If there is any plot you want to see, I will try my best to take advantage of the public chapters in these two days to write it out for everyone~ hehe~
  After it is put on the shelves, I will make more, more, and more updates. I hope everyone will continue to support the genuine version.
