Seeing her husband stunned and motionless, Lin Wanxia quickly walked over with Qu Manman in her arms and asked, "What's wrong? What did you find?"
"There are so many books, some with foreign characters, I can't understand them."
Qu Songsheng said that he had a high school diploma, but he was recommended to go to high school as the son of a poor peasant, and his cultural level was not very good at all.
I can’t tell whether those books are good or bad!
Lin Wanxia stretched her head to take a look, but couldn't quite understand it.
I could only vaguely make out a few classics from their covers: "English versions of Gone with the Wind, Jane Eyre, and Wuthering Heights. Oh my god, how could there be such books here?"
Looking at the bundles of books on the ground, Lin Wanxia took a deep breath and asked, "Are these all banned books from the past?"
Qu Songsheng nodded.
"What should we do then?"
Although the college entrance examination is now open, this poisonous weed of foreign culture was once something that everyone was afraid to talk about.
Especially Lin Wanxia, who was a member of the "five black categories" when she was a child.
She had personally seen someone being treated as a spy just because they had a few foreign books at home.
Looking at the books all over the floor, the young couple didn’t know what to do for a moment.
Then Qu Songsheng suggested: "How about finding a place to hide first?"
It's a book after all, it would be a shame to throw it away.
【What are you hiding? Times have changed.】
Qu Manman's eyes almost lit up when she looked at those books.
I couldn't help but shout in my heart: [These are all great books, world-famous masterpieces.]
[Many contents are included in the textbooks.]
[In the future, the education department will continue to encourage people to read more of these classics.]
As a lucky post-95s, Qu Manman's foreign language level is quite good.
In her opinion, these books are simply treasures given by God to their family!
The 1980s had just begun, and the conditions in this small county town were even worse than those of the later 18th-tier towns.
Original foreign language books are not only rare but also expensive, and ordinary students simply cannot afford them.
If you can read it fluently, it will be very helpful for learning a foreign language!
The county middle school is one of the top 100 middle schools in the country, and many of the students here aim to attend prestigious schools or even study abroad.
The desire to learn a foreign language must be extraordinary.
[Let's put a bookshelf in the store. I'm sure there will be students interested in borrowing books.]
[By then, our home will not only be an ordinary restaurant, but also a place with a scholarly atmosphere.]
[Not only these foreign books, but also other books, are all sorted and placed on the bookshelf.]
【Books are the ladder of human progress and the key to wisdom.】
The country is currently focusing on higher education. It wouldn't hurt to open a shop next to a school and stock it with books...
Qu Manman said a lot of things in her heart, which shocked Qu Songsheng and Lin Wanxia deeply.
The couple looked at each other tacitly.
Although she knew her daughter was extraordinary, she could tell at a glance that a foreign book was a world classic.
He can quote famous quotes and sayings at any time.
This was something the couple had never expected.
Could it be that Qu Manman can understand foreign languages?
Oh My God!
Who is the daughter?
Not only can she predict the future, she is also very knowledgeable.
This situation cannot be explained by not drinking Meng Po soup, right?
But no matter what, Qu Manman is his daughter.
She is my daughter, whom I gave birth to and raised bit by bit. She is born extraordinary, and it is a blessing from God to my family.
Thinking of this, the couple looked away.
Lin Wanxia reached out and flipped through a few books, saying as she turned them over, "What great books! They're still in great condition."
“Since I was little, I have hoped that my home would have a big bookshelf filled with my favorite books.”
"How about we customize a bookshelf and put it in the store first!"
"At worst, we can put up a curtain to cover it up, so ordinary people won't be able to see it."
Qu Songsheng immediately said: "Okay, then I'll sort them out and put them away first, and then I'll go and customize a bookshelf."
After hearing what her parents said, Qu Manman was very relieved.
I thought to myself: [Ah, they are indeed my parents, they always understand me.]
Listening to their daughter's inner thoughts, Qu Songsheng and Lin Wanxia couldn't help but laugh.
Fortunately I held it in.
It can’t be exposed!
They still want to continue listening to their daughter's voice.
Afterwards, Qu Songsheng stayed in the shop to clean up, and Lin Wanxia carried Qu Manman back to the house.
They had to clean both sides, so the couple divided the work: one cleaned the shop, and the other cleaned the house.
While Lin Wanxia was cleaning, she carried Qu Manman on her back.
After eating and drinking her fill, she was rocked on her mother's back and fell asleep unknowingly.
When she woke up again, it was dark.
The house was filled with the aroma of hot rice porridge and Qu Songsheng's favorite dish, stir-fried dried fish with green peppers.
When Qu Manman opened her eyes, she saw that her father looked exhausted, with his hair and clothes covered in dust.
He was eating green peppers and dried fish wrapped in pancakes with big mouthfuls.
While eating, he said, "I have already contacted the bricklayers, carpenters, painters, plumbers and electricians for the renovation. Work will start tomorrow, and I estimate that in a week, the interior and exterior of the shop and the door will be decorated."
"I've also asked someone to handle all the necessary procedures and health certificates. If everything goes well, the renovation will be completed in three to five days."
Qu Songsheng already had an idea for opening a shop: "Our shop is small, so we need to separate a part of it as an operation room. After it is installed, we can only put three or four tables and chairs, and even if it is full, few people can sit."
"Most of our customers are students with limited funds, so it's definitely not possible to just sell stir-fried dishes like a regular restaurant."
"Selling breakfast won't work either. There are already several breakfast shops on this street, and there are plenty of noodle shops too."
Qu Songsheng pondered, "I've seen a way of eating it in the northwest, where noodles and vegetables are sandwiched between pancakes. It's called roujiamo. It's not only delicious, but also convenient for takeout. I haven't seen anyone selling it nearby."
