Reborn Leisurely Landlord

Chapter 83 Mrs. Luo's Family History
"Yinhai Library used to be a collection of books in Huaiyang. It is said that it has a history of hundreds of years. Later, during the war, there was a disaster, and many ancient books were looted. It was rebuilt after liberation, but who is it? I don't know at home.

The behind-the-scenes boss of the bookstore is extremely low-key, so no one knows who it is.I heard from my grandfather that a lot of people were used in the reconstruction, and the history cannot be seen.The owner of the bookstore became more and more mysterious, and now no one knows whether the owner of the bookstore is a man or a woman.But my grandfather said that the person who can build such a building must be a person of great status. "

Naturally, Yu Yang knew more about these historical secrets than Jin Xiaoxiao did. Seeing that Jin Xiaoxiao was being asked, he just said it.Seeing him interrupting, Jin Xiaoxiao gave him a blank look.

"There are a lot of books in that library?" Su Qingdai was a little moved. She was naturally full of curiosity about a historic building and wanted to take a look.

"That's natural. It is known as the first private library in Huaiyang. Do you have a lot of books?" Jin Xiaoxiao raised her chin with a little pride, as if the library had become her home.

Su Qingdai looked at the borrowing card in her hand, feeling a little hot.Mrs. Luo just casually gave such a valuable borrowing card to her.Su Qingdai was a little hesitant, not knowing whether to accept or refund the card.

In principle, she shouldn't accept such expensive things from others.There are no more than ten platinum cards in the city. The old lady Luo must have spent a lot of effort to get them, so she gave them to her like this. Su Qingdai felt that this gift was too much in return. She just gave the old lady a meal of boiled peanuts. .

But emotionally speaking, she was really reluctant to return it, the temptation of this card was too great for her.The largest private library in Huaiyang City, there must have been many books in it that she had never read.With this card, she can enter the library at will, and no one can refuse this card.

Su Qingdai hesitated for several days before making up her mind to return the card.After all, it was one thing for the old lady to give her, but she couldn't accept it with peace of mind.She is just a little girl, how can she pay back the favor she owes?
"What's wrong? Don't like it?" Mrs. Luo was a little surprised when Su Qingdai returned the card to her, "Why did you return the card to me again? This card is specially for you."

Su Qingdai bit her lip, shook her head and insisted: "I heard that there are not many cards in Huaiyang City. Grandma Luo, this card is too expensive. I'm a child, so I can't accept it."

The old lady Luo was stunned and smiled: "What is expensive or not, this thing should be used by those who need it. Aren't you planning to write a novel as a writer? I also read your novel, although it is generally good , but the writing style is still too rough. Girl, to be a real writer, you can’t rely on opportunism, you have to read more books! Chinese culture is extensive and profound, and it’s not something you, a little girl, can understand in just a few years! Your grandma and I have studied language and literature for decades, but I only know a little bit."

Su Qingdai felt a little embarrassed after hearing this.She naturally also knew that her "Miracle" was indeed based on opportunism, and the whole novel relied on interlocking plot settings, but her language skills were not solid.Many times she wants to express a meaning, but when she writes it, she always feels that something is wrong. She still feels that the words do not convey the meaning after deleting, deleting and modifying, and cannot fully express the meaning she thinks in her heart.

If she could go to the library to read for herself, it would create an excellent condition for her. Su Qingdai would be lying if she said she was not tempted, but she still hesitated.

The old lady Luo smiled: "Do you think that this card was obtained by the old lady after trying my best, so you dare not accept it?"

Su Qingdai shook her head and nodded again. Of course there was this reason, but another reason was that Mrs. Luo is also a book lover. If this card is given to her, what should the old lady do if she wants to read in the library?
Mrs. Luo smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, the owner of the library is me."

Ok?
Su Qingdai's eyes widened in disbelief.The rumored mysterious First Library was actually owned by the old lady Luo in front of her.

"You have to keep this a secret! Even my sons and daughters don't know about it! I've been hiding it from them for decades!" Seeing Su Qingdai's shocked expression, the old lady thought it was a little funny, and said with a mischievous smile, " Let me first tell you about the history of this library."

The old lady began to narrate the history of Yinhai Bookstore.

It turned out that the book building was built during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. The person who built the building was the No. 17 eldest grandson of the Luo family, who was the Minister of the Ministry of War at that time.Because he had the opportunity to collect a large number of rare calligraphy, painting and inscriptions, he built a library.

As time passed, the collection of books in that library grew more and more, Master Na Luo also felt that it was difficult to protect the library, so he set up a rule that when he was old, the library would only be passed on to males and not to females, and not to the descendants. Concubine, pass on the elders but not the young.

"Speaking of which, this rule has not changed until my father's generation, but it has been cut off here. The only son of our Luo family went to the revolution with the old chairman and never came back. My father saw the book There is no one to inherit the building, so in the end, I had to break the rules and pass it on to me."

The old lady Luo looked a little sad. Although it was an old thing, it would still make her feel sad to mention it.Fortunately, she never mentioned about the Luo family to the Li family, nor did she mention the ownership of the library, otherwise, that Hu Meizi back then might not know what to do.

The old lady Luo remained silent, and Su Qingdai also felt sad.She guessed in her heart that this old lady must have experienced many unbearable things. Seeing her sad appearance, Su Qingdai felt sour in her heart, and couldn't help but want to coax her.

"Since the library is owned by your grandma, then Kadedai will be under your command!" Su Qingdai smiled slightly, "By the way, grandma, we will have a monthly vacation in a few days, and my brother and I are going home Getting ready for the autumn harvest. Would you like to go to the countryside with our brothers and sisters?"

Mrs. Luo's thoughts were interrupted. When she heard that she was going to play in the country, her heart moved: "Go to the country? Is it fun there?"

"Of course, going back this time is a good time to dig loaches, catch long fish, and pinch crabs! The chestnuts, hawthorns, and grapes and mulberries in the mountains are also ripe. My brother has been yelling for a long time."

The old lady Luo was naturally happy when she heard this, and she stayed in the city all day, the air she breathed was not fresh, and she became tired and lazy.It is always good to go to the countryside to play, get close to nature, and breathe fresh air.

After agreeing to go play, Mrs. Luo regained her spirits and kept asking Su Qingdai what she wanted to bring.Su Qingdai laughed and said that it was still early, and it would be too late to tidy up on the day she went back, so old lady Luo gave up.

Mrs. Luo had been looking forward to it for a few days before going to No. [-] Middle School in the city for a monthly vacation.Sun Qiang became the driver as a matter of course, but this time, You and the boss also followed.Because there were no spare seats, Su Qingdai did not call Li Lele.

He and his boss were going to the countryside to collect a batch of medicinal materials, so Sun Qiang picked him up along the way.I heard that Mrs. Luo is Su Qingdai's landlord, and the boss naturally must have a chat with the old lady.

As a result, the two became addicted as soon as they chatted. Naturally, the boss and the boss did not expect that the old lady had a great research on traditional Chinese medicine.He was overjoyed immediately, and chatted with the old lady very enthusiastically, but almost missed getting off the car.But everyone in the car laughed so hard that they fell down.

The car drove through Shaoxiang Township, and entered the bumpy gravel road, bumping and shaking.Su Qingdai looked at the golden rice waves tumbling outside the window, longing in her heart.In this life, she didn't know what kind of path her life would take.

The old lady hadn't seen the golden rice for many years, and she didn't mind the heat outside, so she leaned outside the window like a child to watch the rice waves rising and falling in the field.

Su Qingdai thought it was funny, but felt infinite emotion in her heart.

When I got home, I naturally had to cook.Aunt Lian next door knew that the two brothers and sisters of the Su family had returned from their monthly vacation, so she ran in and smiled and said, "You guys are back, Miss Su! Right now your father and that college student are playing chestnuts in the mountains, Cheng Yazi, go and have a look." .”

When Su Qingcheng heard that he was beating chestnuts, he was overjoyed. He picked up a bamboo basket from the back room and ran towards the mountain.The old lady was curious and wanted to follow.

Where would Su Qingdai let the old man go to Chestnut Mountain?That Chestnut Mountain is not like Daqing Mountain, where weeds and shrubs are overgrown, bamboo roots are everywhere, if you accidentally fall, you will suffer a lot of injuries.Women in the village generally don't go up there, and only men with thick skin and flesh will go to Chestnut Mountain to hunt chestnuts.

"Don't go, the mountain is chaotic, you can't go there." Su Qingdai pulled the old man to sit down, "Let's rest first, and tomorrow I will take you to pick wild fruits in the mountain!"

The old lady also knew that there was no need to rush, so she had to give up.Seeing Su Qingdai hurried out to start cooking, she was a little bored and ran to the yard to play with the poultry.Seeing a row of sleeping piglets in the pigsty, the old lady exclaimed in surprise: "Su Yatou, your pigs have given birth to a bunch of piglets!"

After hearing this, Su Qingdai also ran out to have a look, no, the row of twelve fat little piglets was sleeping soundly.The last time they came back from vacation, the sow hadn't given birth yet. It's been a month since they saw each other, and the piglets have grown so big.

Su Qingdai was so happy in her heart that she couldn't help throwing a few vegetable leaves in.The sow was disturbed, and stood up immediately to protect the two people who were staring at the outside of the pigpen in front of the piglet. Seeing that Su Qingdai had no malicious intentions, she groaned twice, leaned to the ground and started chewing vegetable leaves.

"I gave birth to a baby pig. It seems that I will give you an extra meal tonight, a great hero!" Su Qingdai smiled, and hurried to prepare the concentrate for the sow.

The old lady Luo looked at the small courtyard of the Su family and felt very kind.She has not lived in such a house for many years, just looking at it, there is a sense of kindness.

Not long after, Father Su and Uncle Lian came back from the mountains, each carrying a big bamboo basket full of plump chestnuts with thorny balls.

Su Qingye followed behind with a schoolbag on her back, from time to time she pulled a few chestnuts out of her elder brother's bamboo basket, tore off the burrs, and with a bang, bit the peel, a fresh and sweet taste came out. Full of lips, the white flesh looks extremely attractive.
