"Let us be companions in the world of mortals and live a carefree life, ride horses and gallop to share the prosperity of the world, sing out the joy in our hearts while drinking wine, and seize the youth with great vigor..."
"You carry the burden and I lead the horse, welcome the sunrise and bid farewell to the sunset, smooth out the bumps and turn them into a highway, overcome the difficulties and dangers and set off again, and set off again..."
Whenever TV starts replaying "My Fair Princess" and "Journey to the West", you know that summer vacation is here again.
A few days after the holiday, the World Cup finally came to an end.
The final was between the Matadores and the Oranje. The two sides fought hard until the 116th minute, and finally Yonesta's decisive sword sealed the throat.
The championship belongs to Spain and it is well deserved.
When Lu Bowen was discussing in the QQ group, he had officially announced that his future nickname would be changed from "Linzhong Little Buffon" to "Linzhong Saint Cassie".
The final time is at 2:30 in the morning. Of course Lin Yi will not watch the live broadcast.
He watched the replay the next day and remembered that his net worth had reached six figures.
In fact, he could win more by adopting a more aggressive betting method, but he still followed the plan he made at the beginning.
He is only sixteen years old and still has a lot of time.
Apart from making up classes, he has no other plans for the summer vacation. After the father-son talk, he has decided to treat high school students as his "main career."
So on this day, he carried his schoolbag and went to the Xinhua Bookstore in Xicheng Square to pick out some guidance books.
Teaching aids may be a major pillar of the publishing industry and have irreplaceable value for schools, teachers and students.
This does not mean that the writing level of the textbooks is not high, it is just that the textbooks are prepared for teaching, while the teaching aids are for exams.
What's more, the few exercises included in the textbook are far from enough training.
Teaching aid materials are usually piled in the core location where they are easiest to find in bookstores, and are divided into different stages according to the different stages of elementary school, junior high school and high school.
Next to it are the good-remembering stars that circulate every day in TV commercials, such as "Bearing on the Back" and the like.
This was the “Internet celebrity product” of that era.
Lin Yi found the materials for high school mathematics, physics and chemistry, and while he was flipping through them, he heard a small voice calling from beside him:
"Lin Yi?"
He turned around and took a look. It was a girl in the same class, named Feng Wenqian, Zhang Jiaqi's former roommate.
She is about 1.6 meters tall, has short ear-length hair that is common in schools, and has a cute little round face.
Wearing a loose T-shirt and knitted pants today, I look very at home.
Lin Yi suddenly thought that Gu Caiwei was one of the few girls in the class with shoulder-length hair, because it took more time to take care of long hair.
So this is also one of the evidences that some girls say that she is a "bad student".
The thought just flashed by, and he lowered his head and said hello to Feng Wenqian:
"What a coincidence, why are you here?"
"My home is nearby, come and read a book."
She shook a book in her hand, and Lin Yi saw the words "Ye Jiaying's Poems on the Early Blooming Tang Dynasty" written on the cover.
The so-called literary young women these days have "three major customs" that weigh on them:
Lin Huiyin's "You are April in the world", Tsangyang Gyatso's "I will never let you down, I will never let you down", and Nalan Rongruo's "If life is just like the first time we met".
As everyone knows, this is the age when we first met, why should we just be like this?
It’s not that poetry is bad, it just falls off when it becomes bad.
Lin Yi and Feng Wenqian didn't have a close relationship. Recalling that in his previous life, this girl seemed to have studied at the Communication University and heard that she became a reporter after graduation.
"And you?"
"Oh, I'll come over and choose some tutorial books."
"I don't see you working so hard. You even buy books to study on your own during the summer vacation."
"There is nothing I can do. I failed in the final exam. I was scolded by Lao Zhao and even called my parents. I have to go to Feiyue for tutoring in two days."
The two of them didn't know each other very well, they were just acquaintances at school.
But it was rare to meet her outside school, so we chatted a little more. Feng Wenqian also shared her experience with the guidance books she had used.
After Lin Yi picked it up, he thought about it and took the same series of high school sophomore materials.
He looked around and saw that the bookstore was very small, with no seats at all. People reading were either standing or sitting leaning against the bookshelves.
Among the bookshelves at the back, there were some idlers who came to enjoy the cool air in the air conditioner. They simply lay on the wooden floor, sometimes lifting their clothes to reveal their bulging bellies.
He looked at his watch and saw that it was already past eleven o'clock, so he said to Feng Wenqian: "Thank you for your suggestion. I'll treat you to a meal."
"Wait for me a moment, I'll go settle the bill first."
He walked to the counter at the door of the bookstore. The cashier skillfully picked up several books, scanned the barcodes, and put them into a plastic bag with "Xinhua Bookstore" written on them.
As soon as Lin touched his pocket, he was suddenly stunned. He found that there was only a bus card in his pocket.
No wallet!
Before Lin Yi came back, Lin'an's electronic payment network was already very complete. Alipay was available throughout the city. He hadn't used cash in three to five years.
After he came back, he kept swiping his Linzhong student card at school and hadn't spent any money at home, so he hadn't changed this habit yet.
The cashier's aunt had already guessed by looking at his expression, and reminded her kindly:
"Classmate, I see you just chatted with that girl over there for a while. Do you know her? How about I borrow some first?"
It seemed that this was the only way. Lin Yi walked over and said, "Um, have you brought any money? Can you lend me two hundred?"
Feng Wenqian was a little surprised to see him go and come back, but she still quickly took out a small wallet with cartoon pictures and took out two hundred-dollar bills and gave them to him.
"Let me go there together and buy this book by the way."
Lin Yi and Feng Wenqian returned to the counter to settle the bill, and then waited for her to finish buying the book before saying, "Let's go to Kaifeng Cai next door for something to eat."
There were not many people in the store today. Lin Yi still remembered what he said he wanted to treat. When he was waiting in line, he turned around and asked:
"Get married together? What do you want?"
Feng Wenqian was a little funny: "Are you going to use the money I borrowed to treat me to dinner?"
Maybe it was a psychological effect. It seemed that for a moment, the customers around him were looking at me strangely.
Lin Yi felt that he was a bit social.
Of course, he didn't insist. They each ordered a set meal for one person and found a table by the window to sit down.
Lin Yi ate very quickly. After he stuffed the last fries into his mouth, he found that Feng Wenqian was still nibbling on the burger, as quiet as a little hamster.
He thought for a moment: "Are you still here this afternoon?"
"Well... let's read some more books."
"How about you wait for me to get home and give you the money? Just a few stops away, I'll be back soon."
"No need, I'll just pay it back after school starts."
Lin Yi actually thought it was too troublesome, but he didn't have the habit of owing money.
It didn't seem polite to leave right now, so he just sat there for a while. He took out the tutorial book he just bought, turned to the selected chapter and read it carefully.
After Feng Wenqian finished eating, she wiped her fingers and mouth with paper towels and waved to the waiter not far away to come and take away the plate.
She turned to look at Lin Yi. She was not disturbed by the movement just now. She was still reading the book intently. She may have encountered a difficult problem and frowned slightly.
In terms of appearance, Lin Yi is most praised for his youthful look.
The afternoon sun shone through the glass on half of his face, and the knuckle of his left index finger unconsciously touched the tip of his nose. Feng Wenqian remembered this little habit.
She didn't say anything. She opened the book "Ye Jiaying's Poems of the Early Prosperity of the Tang Dynasty" that she had just bought and read it quietly.
This girl turns the pages of the book in a very gentle and gentle manner.
Lin Yi unconsciously felt that he had turned a lot of pages. When he raised his hand to look at the watch, he found that it was already past three o'clock and felt that the time was about the same:
"I'm ready to leave, will you go back?"
"Let's get together."
Feng Wenqian just had a book, closed it and held it in her hand.
The two waved goodbye at the bus stop.
There was a group of children in the square having a great time roller skating. Feng Wenqian stopped and looked at them for a few times before continuing to walk home.
