Chapter 249 Comic Strip



The bed is only that big, it's really crowded.

Everyone at the table has their own little ideas, all thinking about how to take advantage.

As soon as Wang Rui went out, he took the vanishing cream and went to see Li Ran from the supply and marketing cooperative.

Li Ran is in charge of the bicycle counter and is usually quite free.

When Wang Rui arrived, Li Ran was yawning and knitting a sweater. She didn't even raise her head when she saw someone coming.

It was not until Wang Rui coughed twice that she raised her head, looked at him with her big eyes, and then stood up:

"Brother Wang, why are you here? Where's Xiaohong? Are you alone?"

As he said that, he looked outside and found that there was indeed no one there.

Wang Rui took out the vanishing cream somewhat embarrassedly:

"This is a new product that our department store just got. I thought you girls all love beauty, so I bought you a bottle too."

Li Ran touched the frosted glass bottle, which was obviously a high-end product, so she returned it.

"You gave this to me. If Xiaohong knew about it, wouldn't she be upset with me? Or are you hiding something from me?"

"I knew nothing could be hidden from your clever brain."

Li Ran was suddenly praised and blushed a little, and rolled up her braids with her hands:

"Then tell me what you want me to do. I won't accept rewards without merit."

Wang Rui hesitated, looking embarrassed:

"It's just... I accidentally made her angry. Can you help me comfort her? She won't meet me anymore."

"Ah? So serious? Did you bully her?"

"My aunt, how dare I bully her? Please help me call her home, otherwise she won't go out."

Then he moved Snow Frost towards her:

"Please."

Li Ran felt that it was quite pitiful that a grown man like him suddenly became like this.

"Then what should I say? I haven't done this before."

"Just tell her you haven't seen her for a few days and invite her to a movie. I can go then."

She has been staying at home all the time. Given her personality, she should have been unable to stay there long ago.

“So simple?”

"yes."

Li Ran felt that this was really an exaggeration. It was rare for a man to be so concerned. She took the vanishing cream and put it away, patting her chest:

"Leave it to me."

Then he ran over to find another salesperson:

"Please watch the counter for me. I'll be back soon."

As they walked towards the post office, Li Ran became curious:

"Aren't you going to work today?"

"Honghong has been mad at me for days. How can I feel like going to work?"

Li Ran felt that he was very affectionate, and she hoped that her future boyfriend could be half as good as him.

They arrived at the post office soon and made a phone call. Looking at Wang Rui who was a little anxious, Li Ran became anxious too.

Holding the handle, I kept thinking about asking Jiang Honghong to answer it quickly.

A middle-aged woman answered the phone:

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

When Li Ran heard that it was Jiang Mu's voice, she hurriedly said:

"Aunt, I'm Li Ran. Is Honghong home?"

When Wang Rui heard this, he knew that he had guessed right. Fortunately, he found Li Ran, otherwise he would not be able to do it.

"You're looking for her. Wait a minute. I'll go call her."

Li Ran had come to my house before, and I remembered that she was a well-behaved girl.

Not long after, Jiang Honghong came down from the stairs, looking disheveled with messy hair. She had been staying at home for the past few days and didn't think about anything.

Every day I hide in the house and do nothing but sleep and read novels I have read before.

She picked up the phone, her voice a little hoarse:

"Hello?"

"Is that Honghong? I haven't seen you for a long time. Can I treat you to a movie after I get my salary?"

Jiang Honghong scratched her hair:

"I don't want to go out lately."

Li Ran obviously didn't expect the other party to be in this state:

"Ah? What's wrong with you?"

Could it be that he was seriously hurt by Wang Rui?

How did he hurt people?

Aunt Zhou felt sorry for her own child when she heard their conversation. Honghong hardly spoke in the past few days, except for staying outside for a while during meal times.

The rest of the time I was back in the house.

"If you don't want to watch a movie, we can just have a meal together. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and midterms are next week, so don't you have to come back?"

Nowadays, everyone is basically doing their own thing, each with their own unique abilities, but they still have to show up for important exams.

For example, Li Ran's family bought her a job in a supply and marketing cooperative early on.

As for Jiang Honghong, she has many choices, so she is not in a hurry.

"Okay, then let's make another movie date when I go to school next week."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Honghong walked upstairs again.

Seeing her daughter half dead, Aunt Zhou didn't dare to tell her not to go see Wang Rui anymore, for fear that she might push him too far and cause him to have mental problems.

I have heard of people committing suicide for love, jumping into the river for love, and becoming mentally ill for love.

No matter how good a parent is in other aspects, they will find it difficult to deal with this matter.

I could only sigh deeply.

Xu Niannian was tired from studying these days, so besides flipping through agricultural books, she was drawing comic strips on the book.

Due to the limitations of the times, she plans to start with the people around her. The simplest thing is to tell the story of a young soldier from his youthful enthusiasm when he joined the army to his mature and loyal youth.

She used a technique commonly used by later generations, and with just a few simple strokes, she was able to outline the clear expressions of the characters.

The enthusiasm came and I drew several pictures in one breath.

When Lu Ze and the others came back, Xu Niannian realized that it was getting late, so she hurriedly got up and went to the kitchen to cook.

As soon as Lu Ze entered the room and put down his schoolbag, he saw the comic book on the table.

They finished reading the two books their uncle bought for them.

Now that I have new paintings, I am naturally eager to learn more.

These paintings were different from the ones he had seen before. They seemed to have fewer strokes than before, but the characters looked clearer and more three-dimensional.

He didn't recognize some of the words on it, but he could roughly guess what they meant based on the pictures.

Xu Niannian made a quick meal and called them out, and only then did they come out to eat.

Lu Ze's eyes sparkled:

"Aunt, did you draw the comic strip in the room?"

As Xu Niannian placed the food on the table, he said:

"yes."

Lu Ze brought his own small bowl and ran to Xu Niannian's side:

"Aunt, your drawing is so great, can I take it to school tomorrow?"

Children all have a competitive spirit. Since his aunt has suddenly become so powerful, he really wants to show off.

Xu Niannian didn't know what he was thinking, she just thought he liked it, so she readily agreed:

"Auntie will order it for you tonight so that you don't get the order mixed up."

"Thank you, Auntie. I want to recognize some words I don't know."

Lu Yilin, who was standing by, glanced at his brother.

He just read the comic strip with me. Haven’t we taught him all the words on it?
