Chapter 691 Hopscotch

When the good student’s mother was walking to the bookstore, a young couple was walking in front of her.

 The girl is a great beauty.

She was wearing a long coat and dress, and a peaked cap, held down low. The shadow of the brim of the hat covered her eyes and nose, so that the mother of the good student who was following behind could not see her face clearly. She could only hear her turning her head and saying goodbye. The sweet laughter caused by her boyfriend's words made her think that she must be a beautiful woman.

 This makes the good student mother feel a little better.

to be honest.

After reading "Five Little Pigs", she was not in a very good mood, especially when the heroine in the book was so similar to her current situation. She felt that she had seen through the world and human nature, and felt that the world It feels like it’s over.

but-

She looked at the couple in front of her and listened to her laughter, just like someone underwater who was listening to a conversation on the shore and suddenly broke through the water. Her ears suddenly became much clearer and she was detached from the world in the book. A lot, which made her realize that the world in the book is the world in the book after all. The real world may have it, but it also has a beautiful side, just like the two people in front of her.

so.

 The mother of a good student did not overtake the people in front of her just because they were walking slowly.

 She followed behind and walked slowly towards the bookstore.

The streets of the alley are tidied up and paved with strips of stone, which are regularly staggered. It greatly facilitates travel and is also a lot more interesting. Sometimes when walking on the street, my mother, a good student, thinks, this street is for There’s nothing like a better time to come to Hopscotch.

pity.

 She is past the age of hopscotch and she is already the mother of a child.

However.

 I don’t know if they have a similar understanding or if the heroes have similar views.

 The beautiful girl in front held her boyfriend's hand and jumped lightly while stepping on the strips of stone. The coat she was wearing had a subtle slit at the hem, which exposed a corner of her skirt as she walked lightly, making people feel light and lively after looking at it.

 The stone strips are a bit narrow and the grid is wrong.

After jumping twice, she stood on one foot and tried to figure out how to jump properly. In the end, she failed to maintain her balance. When she staggered, she leaned on her boyfriend. Then she stood up with a smile, continued to jump diagonally, and then Jump on both feet and have fun.

 The good student’s mother couldn’t help but stop in order not to disturb them by walking over.

 Perhaps—

The good student’s mother looked at the two people’s backs and thought that the game was still fun, but no one was playing with her anymore.

I wanted to buy sweet-scented osmanthus and drink it with me, but it turned out that I was young.

certainly.

The good student’s mother first thought of not this sentence, but a song—

 Li Yu's "Hopscotch".

The good student’s mother is a piano student. Although she doesn’t listen to pop music very much, she listens most to classical music. But when it comes to her favorite music, while recommending classical music, there must be this song "Hopscotch" by Li Yu. 》.

 Whether professionally or personally, good student moms like and recommend this song.

Professionally, this song absorbs Schumann's writing style and technique in "Scenes from Childhood" and cleverly applies it to pop music, making the intro and outro of "Hopscotch" rich in appeal. So much so that the pure music version of this song became very popular for a while, and was often used by schools as music for recess exercises or meals in the cafeteria. Even now, many short videos will use the intro or outro of "Hopscotch" as BGM when filming childhood content.

 Good Student Mom also likes its intro and outro.

in addition.

The mother of the good student also likes her lyrics, "...a few lines were drawn on the grid, we jumped and never looked back, youth cannot be turned back, we have grown up", childhood and regret hit people's hearts at once Nostalgia.

This song is rumored to have an origin.

Li Yu went back to her hometown to sort out her grandmother's belongings and met two little girls playing hopscotch on the street. Her hometown is not big, and you can take a walk around the town after a meal. The residents all know each other and respect each other. If they could be related, these two little girls were the children of a distant sister of Li Yu who played together when they were children.

Li Yu heard from a neighbor that her sister had died of illness some time ago.

 Then—

Li Yu was inspired to write this song in less than ten minutes in the car.

certainly.

This is just a rumor. The good student’s mother has not confirmed it to Li Yu, so she doesn’t know whether it is true or not. Although she wants to verify it, it doesn’t matter if it takes ten minutes or a hundred minutes, it will be enough if she can write the song "Hopscotch". What's more, the good student's mother thinks that this rumor is probably true, because there is also a line in the lyrics "I heard the cuckoo calling."

There is a cuckoo legend in her hometown about a pair of fatherless and motherless brothers who depended on each other for their lives. The younger brother went to dig yams with the older brother. The older brother accidentally fell off a cliff and died. The younger brother stayed there waiting for his older brother to come up until he died of starvation. He was still waiting there. Later, his younger brother turned into a cuckoo. He kept waiting for his elder brother and kept calling him...

 The mother of a good student just doesn’t know if there is such a legend in Li Yu’s hometown.

 “…the sandbags were left in the house…”

The good student’s mother vaguely heard someone humming.

 At first she thought it was being played in the store and it came from the alley.

　　Continue.

She quickly realized that it was a cappella singing, but the singing was very nice, like a hand that immediately caught her in the singing. The good student’s mother has never heard Li Yu perform live, but she thinks that’s all Li Yu will sing a cappella.

However.

This feeling only lasts for a moment.

By the time she wanted to continue listening, the couple in front of her had already walked away, and the humming had disappeared.

 The mother of a good student is a little regretful.

This hum is so touching.

She walked quickly for a few steps. When the couple came out of the alley, she turned around and entered the yard next to her. She passed by the "Today's Recommendation" sign of the bookstore at the door and entered the yard. From the yard, she could see the bookstore through the large area of ​​glass. book of.

 There are several customers in the bookstore, including tourists and some familiar faces.

The boss who was arranging the bookshelf knew the good student mother and knew that this was a book-buying customer. After letting the clerk continue to organize the bookshelf, he clapped his hands and came over to say hello: "Sister~ lightnovelpub.net~ What books do you still want to buy?"

The mother of the good student looked at the bookshelf they were setting up, not far from the store door, and asked with concern: "This is..."

She thought the bookstore was going to have cultural and creative supplies. When a bookstore owner couldn't survive, it was obvious to the naked eye that the first place to compromise would be a bookshelf, then a row of bookshelves, and then an area of ​​cultural and creative supplies.

As for the space of the book, it can only be compressed and compressed again.

"oh."

Contrary to her expectations, the bookstore owner happily said: "Place the books of the devil's husband."

 The mother of a good student doesn’t understand very well.

The bookstore owner is worthy of being someone who dares to do business in the Second Ring Road. He is very good at observing people's actions: "Sister, you don't know? The yard in the gourd chest in front of our alley has been sold to the Big Devil. After this spread, fans come to the alley to ask for autographs and so on. of-"

 The bookstore owner looked back at the bookshelf: "Isn't this convenient?"

 “Li Yu is married?!”

The good student mother’s reflex arc just reflected the news. According to the boss, she is still a writer.

　　also normal.

As far as the Li Yu she knew, it was almost impossible to marry into a wealthy family.

Sister is from a wealthy family, why should she suffer the wrath of a wealthy family? Marrying a writer is at least easier to control.

but-

 Judging from the store owner’s decoration and the implication that the store owner plans to sell it to the store owner, Li Yu’s husband must be an internet celebrity writer.

The boss was surprised: “Sister, you don’t even know this!”

 Good student mother: “The light revolves around the child.”

 The boss echoed: "That's right. It's the senior year of high school. It's an important period."

The good student’s mother asked her boss to be busy while she went to pick out the books herself.

Books in bookstores now have book covers and are not allowed to be opened. But the boss here is very attentive. They will wrap some books in beautiful covers for readers to browse for free to see if the book is good and whether they want to buy it. .

 Because the book covers are too thoughtful, sometimes mothers of good students want to buy books with book covers.

However, these are not for sale.

The good student's mother usually came to the bookstore to read quietly for a while, but today she quickly returned because she couldn't find Jiang Yang's book. She was still thinking, could it be that Jiang Yang was at his peak after his debut? Wrote such a book?

"sister."

 The boss looked at her: "What book are you looking for?"

 Good Student Mom: "Jiang Yang, a book written by a mystery novel author."

boss:…

 “Sister, it seems you really don’t know.”

The boss patted the bookshelf he had just sorted out next to him, "This is for his books. Jiang Yang is the devil's husband."

"ah!"

 The good student’s mother was surprised again.

Boss: "You think anyone can fall into our eyes, but this grandson can?"

He stepped aside and asked his mother, a good student, to stand with him in front of the pile of books to be sorted out in front of the bookshelf, "Which book of his do you want to read, mystery, science fiction, or fairy tales?" "Ah!"

 The good student’s mother was surprised again.

 boss: "Who do you think... Sun Tzu can do?"

 The three of them, including the clerk, were silent.

 Those who don’t know think that time and space have gone back.

　Good student’s mother: “Just…just reasoning. Is he the best at reasoning?”

"this-"

The boss felt that if this was discussed under Jiang Yang's super talk, the parents and the bricks would take off. The ancestors would like to pretend to be the other party's eighteenth generation ancestor, "The little prince, the eyes and Poirot - they are really different." There is no competition.”

  It can only be said that they are among the best in their respective genres of novels.

"ah!"

 The good student’s mother was surprised again.

boss:

"stop!"

The clerk felt that if their conversation continued, the bookstore would be flooded with saliva.

  Anyway—

at last.

 The boss and the clerk stood at the door of the courtyard and sent the good student mother away in a groveling manner.

 The mother of a good student has not gone far.

The stack of books she was carrying was so heavy that the moment she walked out of the bookstore, the bag tightened into a rope and penetrated into her flesh, so that she had to stop, put the books on the ground, and let her hands relax.

The mother of the good student was shaking her hands while her heart was pounding, wondering if the bookstore owner might not be able to hold on and sell the book in a clearance sale, which would be borne by her.

She was muttering in her mind, and just as she was about to pick up the book, she snatched it away with one hand: "I'll do it."

This voice is very familiar.

 Her husband’s voice.

"good."

 The good student’s mother responded coldly.

 They walked back.

 Her husband: “What kind of books are these, and why are they so heavy?”

 This is really heavy.

  Shen's hand was strangled, and over time it was estimated that his fingers would become ischemic.

 Good student mother: “Jiang Yang’s book.”

 Her husband: “All of them?!”

 Mom: “Yeah.”

"you-"

Her husband looked at the light and saw that it was really all there.

Unlike his wife who is closed-minded, he is still very well-informed and knows who Jiang Yang is: "Since when did you like his books!"

 Mom: “I’ve fallen in love with it recently.”

 Her husband felt something was wrong.

How can I like this so much? I bought so many at once.

It’s almost time to catch up with the crazy fans.

Wait a moment!

Her husband remembered that he grew up in the alley a few days ago, and a friend who is now a neighbor in the alley mentioned it to him on the phone, saying that their alley was going to be famous, and now a celebrity had moved in, saying that Li Yu’s husband regarded it as a job. room.

 Thinking of the recent relationship with his wife—

Her husband thought that there was nothing wrong with it, so he pulled off the head and kicked it like a ball!

 Husband: “Why do you suddenly fall in love with him?”

 Wife: “It’s pretty.”

Regarding this point, even if her husband sacrificed twenty of his heads to be played as footballs, he has to admit that the devil's husband is quite handsome, but handsomeness has no use. He is someone else's husband. "The devil's husband" —”

 He started talking and was embarrassed.

The last time they had a fight, he said she had a dirty mind, had tarnished art, and had misunderstood his communication with students about art.

Now that he is starting to talk, wouldn’t that mean that the roles have been reversed?

right!

 What if it’s nothing but him who has polluted literature?

 He cannot imitate her wife and misunderstand other people's relationships.

so-

 He planned to make insinuating remarks: "It's all useless."

Her wife: "It's not bad, he understands women's hearts quite well."

The mother of a good student was impressed by the female characters portrayed and created in "Five Little Pigs" alone, if nothing else.

"What!"

His husband was shocked, what the **** had happened.

This **** scumbag knows how to understand women!

especially!

 The scumbag who can take down the big devil!

Is that a scumbag?

that is not!

That is simply a walking humanoid seeder. Not to mention an ignorant girl, even a housewife like his wife has no resistance in front of him!

 What a shame!

 Fortunately, the female student gave an empathetic reminder and advised him to come back and communicate more with his wife, so as not to be angry because of her!

 Otherwise, we wouldn’t even know if his hat was **** in dark green!

 He asked hurriedly: "Have you met and talked?"

 His wife: “No.”

 Husband: “Then how do you know he understands women’s hearts?”

His wife took it for granted: "You can see it!"

 Husband understands!

 What the **** does anyone know about a woman’s heart? It’s all about looks.

He never expected that the woman he had lived with for more than ten years and had a child was actually a face judge. Why didn't he notice it before? Could it be that the faces he had seen were not handsome enough?

Then this is even more dangerous!

 Husband now has a green light in his heart!

  Arrived home soon.

My wife went to clean up the garbage left by fast food and dinner.

 As for the husband—

 He saw the fast food and learned that it was what his wife ate for lunch, and that the book was what his wife had read all day long. He was very sad after that!

His wife is gentle and virtuous, she always cleans the house neatly, and she is not allowed to eat fast food. How has everything changed during this cold war!

Then nothing disintegrates so quickly!

 This is all my **** fault—

Husband wants to slap himself a few times!

At this critical moment when you are more on guard against Jiang Yang than any other male creature, this is the time for you to have a **** cold war!

My husband thought about it and went to help in the kitchen in order to make things right.

His wife thought he was seeking peace in a cold war and was too lazy to pay attention to him.

 After finishing the housework and washing up, she didn't even have time to heat up another glass of milk for her son, and went to bed to read a novel. The first thing she read was the mystery, "Murder on the Orient Express", which the boss said was Jiang Yang's earliest famous work.

I have to say, it’s really well written.

 In a short while.

 His husband entered the bedroom.

 “I sent warm milk to my son.” The husband said.

"Um."

The wife responded coldly.

 She still remembers the Cold War period.

Her husband stood by the bed for a while. He tried to speak many times but failed. He could only get on the bed from the other side in despair. Looking at his wife who was reading seriously, he felt that on the spine of the book she was holding, the name of the author Jiang Yang was written. Extremely dazzling.

Oh shit!

 Must go home every day from now on!

 It’s still three times early, noon and late!
