Zhengyangmen: Don’t date Su Meng

Chapter 4 Books are the ladder of human progress

On a late autumn morning, the first morning after Han Chunming's time travel, he seemed to have returned to his high school days. He came to the classroom early and began to read under the supervision of his class teacher. Although he was just pretending to read under the pressure of his class teacher at first, as the sound of reading continued to come from all around him, he also began to read aloud.

It was very noisy, but magically it didn't have any impact on him. He couldn't hear the people around him reading and was completely immersed in the book.

The situation now is so similar to that time.

The only difference was that he didn't read aloud because he didn't want to be beaten by Han Chunsheng and Han Chunyan!

The cicadas’ chirping has long disappeared in late autumn, but the rustling sound of leaves in the wind is also very charming.

Immersed in the book, he didn't realize there were three people standing behind him. The book in his hand was almost at the end, and he was eager to find the final ending.

【Walk! 】

Han's mother opened her mouth and uttered silent words. The three of them tiptoed out of the door and dared to speak in a low voice only when they walked into the yard.

"Is Chunming crazy?" Han Chunsheng still didn't believe that the person who got up early and studied seriously was Han Chunming.

"Second brother, you are the one who said this about Xiao Wuzi. I think it's a good thing. Xiao Wuzi knows how to study. Although it is not very useful for finding a job, it is better than him hanging out, right, Mom?" Han Chunyan looked at Han's mother.

Mother Han nodded and said, "Chunyu is right. It's a good thing that Xiaowuzi can learn well. We all have to support him. Especially you, Chunshan, you must not undermine your brother's confidence, otherwise I will punish you."

Han Chunsheng nodded suddenly. This is family status!

…………

Turn the page again... ugh, that's it.

Han Chunming looked at the book in his hand. Why is it so short? Just like those online writers, the articles they write are not hard to read at all and can be finished in just a few minutes. How can this be? Update it for me. It's not like I won't pay you. Who are you looking down on?

Haha, just kidding, the author’s rights still have to be protected!

He looked at his watch...well, he didn't have a watch, so he had to go out and check the clock, and found that only more than two hours had passed.

So slow? That means he finished reading a book in more than two hours!

Although it is very thin, with only more than sixty pages, Han Chunming can still recall the contents of the book very clearly!

How can it be?

He was a little confused. Could he be a genius with a photographic memory? But in reality, he was not like that!

Moreover, he had also experienced four years in college when the Great Dao was severely suppressed, and two years of the Dharma-Ending Age when he was working. Even if he had this ability, it must have degenerated. How come it suddenly appeared now?

Something is wrong, very wrong.

"System, are you here?"

[Ding, from now on, please call the system directly and explain your questions. Don't ask whether the system is online. According to the host world, this is a wrong way to ask questions and will disgust the other party.]

Han Chunming's mouth twitched. How could he not understand? This was a classic line.

When he was in college, he complained a lot in the dormitory - if you have something to say, just say it, don't ask if he is there, because if you ask, he is not!

I didn't expect the system to be so up-to-date.

"Do you know the answer to my question just now?" Knowing that the system was straightforward, Han Chunming asked the question directly.

[Ding, to use the terminology of immortal cultivation, the host directly took over Han Chunming's soul and occupied his body, and the memories previously received were also Han Chunming's own memories.

Now the host has dug up the corresponding memories through reading books, so the impression will naturally be more profound. This is a natural phenomenon, not a photographic memory. I hope the host will not be wishful thinking, but be down-to-earth and be an honest person. 】

[Okay, you are still so venomous, you are worthy of being the system. ]

[Ding, explanation complete, goodbye!] The system immediately ran away, leaving Han Chunming with nowhere to vent his anger.

[Forget it, I can’t hit it again. ]

After comforting himself, he finally understood what was going on.

Although the system's explanation is a bit mysterious and convoluted, in Han Chunming's understanding, isn't this just the memory of the victim whose body he possessed? Simple and crude, although it is not the case, it is very simple for him to understand it this way.

Suddenly, he thought of something and the corners of his mouth raised higher and higher!

[That means, as long as I keep reading, the memories of all the books here can be awakened! ]

It seems... that's the truth!

He believed that Han Chunming must have read these books, and even if he had not, he would be a minority, which could help him take many shortcuts.

At this moment, Han Chunming looked at the bookshelf. A whole bookshelf was filled with books. They were no longer a burden, but a golden treasure mountain that was within reach!

…………

Han Chunsheng and Han Chunyan went to work after breakfast. Han's mother didn't call Han Chunming because she saw that he was engrossed in reading. Now that he came out, she naturally brought him the steamed buns that were hot in the pot and invited him to have breakfast.

Han Chunming held a steamed bun in his left hand and a book in his right hand, and ate the bun while making inexplicable laughter.

Han's mother couldn't help but take a few more glances and found that he didn't seem to be laughing because of the content of the book, because Han Chunming's eyes were obviously looking outside the house, very distracted, and his attention was not on the book at all. No one knew what he was thinking!

"Xiao Wuzi, what are you laughing at?"

Han Chunming's eyes were finally focused by Han's mother's words. He restrained his smile and wiped the corner of his mouth. Well, the back of his hand was not wet this time!

"Mom, it's nothing, the jokes in the book are funnier!"

[I don't believe you, you didn't read the book at all!] Han's mother complained in her heart, nodded and said: "Since you have nothing to do in the morning, go to the street for a run. Even if you don't give gifts, you can make yourself familiar with people. What if they think of you then, right!"

Han Chunming shook his head and said vaguely: "No, I still have to read!"

Han's mother looked at him in surprise. Was he really in love with reading? Or was he just making excuses? She had to ask more clearly.

"Then what about your job? You really have to stay at home for the rest of your life."

Han Chunming shook his head and turned the pages of the book with his face. "It's useless to go to the street now. If you don't pay, they won't pay any attention to you. Come to think of it, Cheng Jianjun is more reliable. His father has strong connections. I guess there will be accurate news today or tomorrow."

There is no need to guess, the God’s perspective is so terrifying!

"Really? Jianjun agreed to you?" Han's mother asked in surprise.

"Well, promise me. What is our relationship? We are good friends who grew up together. If he doesn't help me, who else can he help?" In order to reassure Han's mother, he didn't mind saying something against his will, as long as the ending was good.

Now Han's mother felt reassured.

"Yes, you have a good relationship with Jianjun. You two are almost like brothers. He will definitely help you. Then you won't have to worry about your job."

Rumors! Total slander!

Who wants to wear the same pants with a grown man, a bad guy? If she is a beautiful woman... well, don't even think about it, you will be blocked.

But in order to reassure Han's mother, Han Chunming still reluctantly accepted his [good brother] Cheng Jianjun, secretly thinking that if he didn't perform well, he would puncture his tires and make him die without a burial place!

Well, I feel comfortable.

Knowing that Han Chunming had a good chance of finding a job, Han's mother felt much better and no longer urged Han Chunming to go to the street. She let him read books at home for the whole morning.

Because of the Han family's unique geographical location, next to the archway leading to the backyard, people coming and going can see his house. In addition, he left the window open, so many people saw him sitting in front of the window reading, and then an outrageous rumor spread.

[Han Chunming was devastated by his inability to find a job and had begun to give up on himself].

It was already afternoon when he learned the news, and Su Meng came to his house to tell him.

"What did you say? Who said I couldn't get over it? I'm in a very good mood now."

Han Chunming shouted at Su Meng who was standing outside the window. They were talking through the window.

Oh, by the way, Su Meng is wearing the same clothes as yesterday. This also shows the frugality of girls nowadays. They can wear a set of clothes for a long time, unlike the real world, where girls have to change clothes every day, otherwise people will guess the next day that they didn’t go home last night or why they didn’t change clothes.

Alas, the world is in decline!

"Really?" Su Meng obviously didn't believe it. If Han Chunming didn't read the book, she might have believed it, but they all lived in the same yard and grew up together. She knew the other person's character very well. Now he could do such an outrageous thing as reading a book, so it was not impossible that he was depressed.

Han Chunming was too lazy to explain. He only saw two words in Su Meng's eyes - don't believe it!

"So how's your work going?"

Su Meng knew that she couldn't ask too many questions, otherwise Han Chunming's self-esteem would definitely be hurt, and that was not what a friend should do.

"Cheng Jianjun should have helped me get the quota. I'll wait for him to come to me." Han Chunming replied lightly, his eyes starting to send him away.

Su Meng frowned, and just as she was about to say something, she saw Han Chunming's eyes began to wander and fell on the book. It was obvious that he didn't want to talk to her. She snorted coldly, turned around and left, but she began to mutter in her heart -

[Why does Han Chunming seem to have become a different person? He was very attentive to her before, but now that she has taken the initiative to come to his house, he is acting arrogantly? ]

[Got it, playing hard to get! Man, you've successfully caught my attention! ]

Han Chunming didn't know that Su Meng had already imagined a drama of a man chasing a woman. He didn't have the time to think about these details. Studying, studying made him happy!

Study for your own rise!

He was so absorbed in the effort that he vaguely remembered that he should have something else to do, but he forgot it the next second.

Nothing can stop him from learning, Gaia!

…………

"Xiao Xing, didn't you say you wrote a letter to your aunt? Why hasn't Xiao Wuzi come yet?" A middle-aged woman dressed like Lao Tan looked at the people passing by in a daze. She was holding a sack in her hand and wanted to leave, but she didn't know where to go.

A girl drinking Arctic Ocean soda behind her immediately put down the bottle. Before she could say anything, the soda was snatched away by another girl. She said helplessly: "Third Aunt, I wrote that it's today. My fifth brother will probably be here soon. Honghua, don't drink it all. Leave some for me." Seeing that the soda was almost finished, the girl grabbed it and poured it into her mouth.

The middle-aged woman saw this and immediately exclaimed: "Where did you get this soda from? Let me try it too."

The girl put down the bottle embarrassedly, not even a drop of soda left in it, "Third Aunt, why didn't you tell me earlier? I've already finished it, burp~~~."

The middle-aged woman looked at them with regret and blamed them for spending money indiscriminately.

"Auntie San, a bottle of soda costs 1.5 cents, and I paid the most. Honghua only paid 50 cents." The girl stretched out her hand with an exaggerated expression.

"What?" The middle-aged woman exclaimed, a distressed look on her face, and she couldn't help but say, "My work points for a day are only 11 cents, and you spent 15 cents on a bottle of soda. You're such a waste. I'll tell your mother when I get home and make her not give you a penny."

The girl stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to reply. The moment she looked up, she saw a familiar figure. She immediately waved her arms and shouted loudly: "Brother Wuzi, we are here, Brother Wuzi!"

Han Chunming heard someone calling him, and he stood on tiptoe and saw three people. He immediately confirmed that they were his third aunt, Meng Xiaoxing and Honghua. He also shouted loudly for them to stay where they were, and he would be there soon.

This is because he does not want to be held back by the power of metaphysics.

Especially in crowded places, two people facing each other should never move forward at the same time. What you think is a two-way run may end up disappearing in the crowd.

The value of the sentence "Don't move around here, I'll buy you some oranges" is still increasing.

He moved forward with difficulty against the flow of people. He had indeed forgotten about picking someone up as he was too engrossed in reading. If Han's mother hadn't come into the room to call him, he would have really forgotten about picking someone up.

Standing opposite the three people, Han Chunming smiled and joked: "Third Aunt, you come to our house to buy goods again."

Third Aunt patted him gently and blamed him for not being able to speak.

"Well, I won't say anything. Let's go." Han Chunming turned around and saw the bottle in Honghua's hand. He smiled and said, "You don't know that you can get a refund for this bottle!"

Meng Xiaoxing was stunned, then smiled and said, "Brother Wuzi, please don't lie to us. How can we return the money for a broken bottle?"

Han Chunming smiled but said nothing. Auntie San immediately said, "Xiao Xing, looking at your brother Wu Zi's expression, you know he is not lying. Come on, ask your brother Wu Zi where to return the bottle."

Meng Xiaoxing and Honghua both came forward and asked him in a coquettish manner where to return the bottle.

Han Chunming pulled his hand out without leaving any trace. Don't think too much about it, he just broke free from their hands, but there was no physical contact!

"Go ask the owner of the soda you bought from to get your money back. He must be bullying you because you are not from the city and you don't know anything. Don't be polite to him."

Directing Meng Xiaoxing and the other person to return the bottles, Han Chunming chatted with his third aunt about family matters. Soon the two of them came back with the money, and the group walked towards Han's house.

On the way, Han Chunming kept introducing the surrounding buildings to the three people, hoping that they would be able to find the way by themselves next time they came, and he wouldn't have to pick them up again.

Now, his desire to study is terrifyingly strong!
