After traveling through time, she happily became the group's favorite

Chapter 170 The Colorful Day is Coming to an End

Lin Sitian was shocked. She thought that the textbook was worthless now, but when the college entrance examination was resumed, she would not be able to buy it even if she had money.

This time he felt like he had gotten a great deal, so he happily took out 10 yuan from his pocket and handed it to the old man in front of him.

The old man looked at the big unity in his hand and felt a little confused. After all, he was paid by the government for working at the scrap yard.

Normally, selling such a small amount of scrap would only fetch a few cents.

Nowadays, it is really difficult to find the change when you receive eight or nine yuan at a time. After all, these books did not really cost 10 yuan, but a little more than 8 yuan, almost 9 yuan.

Seeing this dilemma, Lin Sitian hurriedly said: "Uncle, please accept it quickly. It's not a big deal for the eight of us to share this amount.

With the extra money left, go get yourself a pot of wine. The weather is getting colder now, so drink some wine to warm yourself up."

Xia Zhiyan, who immediately reacted at this moment, continued: "Yes, yes, sir, just accept it, and consider it as our filial piety to you.

Didn't you just say that our little girl looks like your granddaughter? Just think of it as your granddaughter giving you a tip for the wine."

Hearing the advice from the two little girls, the old man happily accepted the big unity card and thought about the White Rabbit milk candy and other candies they had just given him.

The old man walked back to his usual workplace, bent down, found two exquisite porcelain pieces in the cabinet, and handed them to the two girls in front of him, saying:

“Well, since you said you are my granddaughters, I will give these two little pieces of porcelain to you.

Little girls all love beauty. Now in autumn, there are wild flowers and weeds blooming everywhere. You can take them home and use them as vases to arrange flowers.

When my eyes hurt while reading, I just look at the flowers in the vase, and it makes me feel better.”

The two little girls who were suddenly given gifts kept thanking the old man in front of them. After all, they could see that these two pieces of porcelain were definitely not simple porcelain.

After all, the old man at the scrap yard specially put the porcelain into the cabinet, and now he just gave it to me so simply. Of course I have to express my sincere gratitude.

After receiving the two pieces of porcelain, Lin Sitian and Xia Zhiyan once again took out a lot of food from their pockets and handed it to the old man in front of them.

After all, they both have their own small handbags, which are the same style as Lin Sitian's. Their bags are filled with a lot of candies, biscuits and the like.

This comes in handy now!!

The old man also accepted the various candies and biscuits given to him by the two little girls without hesitation. After accepting these things, he looked at the young men and girls in front of him and urged them:

"Alright, alright, stop chatting. Just hurry up and take your books back. It's getting late, and we're almost late."

After saying this, he turned to Xia Lin and the other man and said, "Alright, you two should hurry back. If you have some free time and come to town, come visit me. I'll tell you about my heroic deeds when I was young!"

After hearing this, everyone said goodbye to the kind old man in front of them, especially the two people who were specially cared for by him, who also smiled and agreed to the old man's request.

Just like this, the old man who usually looks listless in the scrap station is now standing at the door of the scrap station with high energy, watching the young people going away with a smile on his face, and sighing in his heart: It’s great to be young!

In the eyes of the old man, the group of young people who were walking away had bright eyes and happy tone.

Although at this moment the male educated youth were holding books tied with ropes in their hands.

However, they were already happy to get such clean, tidy and intact textbooks, so even though their hands were a little uncomfortable from being tied by the ropes, they still chatted happily.

At this moment, Lin Sitian learned the reason why the other two female educated youth did not come to the scrap yard.

Because there were really too many supplies, it would be a bit dangerous if Uncle Zhang was left there alone.

If he encounters two street urchins, Uncle Zhang, an elderly man who usually drives a rickshaw, is no match for them.

Although the two girls left behind are indeed no match for that kind of person, three is always better than one. When there are more people, those idle people will have to weigh their rights and wrongs.

And Zhou Jie, who was pushing the cart with them, was still waiting for Uncle Zhang and the others to go to the scrap yard. He would leave only when they came back.

After all, as Zhou Jie said, he had to ensure the safety of his own supplies, and he knew Lin Sitian, so he also had to protect the personal safety of Lin Sitian's friends. Therefore, he stayed with Uncle Zhang and the others to help watch over the supplies.

That's why only a few male educated youth came. After hearing this explanation, the two female educated youth also thought that their plan was quite good and that they had considered everything.

As they were chatting and laughing, they gradually walked towards the ox cart and found that there were indeed quite a lot of things piled on the ox cart.

It does look quite eye-catching. If Uncle Zhang is left alone there, he will definitely attract those street urchins.

After all, there are so many good things there, and it is not just talk that people die for money and birds die for food.

Although it is in broad daylight, those street urchins will definitely give it a try, after all, if they try, a bicycle can be turned into a motorcycle.

Before they looked over, they saw a few young men standing near the ox cart, looking at them eagerly, and those two or three young men looked nonchalant.

They looked a bit like the spirited young men of later generations, but when Wang Wenxiang and his four companions approached, those friends left the range of the ox cart in anger.

When they had reached the oxcart, Uncle Zhang finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to the educated youth in front of him:

"Oh, it's a good thing you came back. You didn't see the hungry eyes of those people, who wanted to rush forward and snatch the things on the ox cart.

Fortunately, your friend Zhou is here to intimidate us a little, otherwise it would be really dangerous if I, a middle-aged man, were the only one left with two young girls.

By the way, where did you get all these good things?

You've brought back so many books now, are you planning on stocking up on food for the winter? You've even brought books to pass the time?"

When Wang Wenxiang first heard what Uncle Zhang said, he wanted to respond immediately, but when he saw Zhou Jie standing beside him, he swallowed his words and hurriedly thanked Zhou Jie:

"Thank you, brother. Let's go to your place later!"

Lin Sitian also heard what Grandpa Zhang said, and now looked at Zhou Jie. He knew that Zhou Jie stayed here to help him guard the things his partner bought because of her, so he thanked him:

"Thank you, Brother Zhou. I'll come to your place and play with you next time I come!"

Seeing all the people gathered, Zhou Jie waved his hands at them and said indifferently:

"Okay, I said I would be responsible for you, so now that you're back I'll go back."

After saying these words, he turned to Lin Sitian and said, "Okay, I'm going back now. Next time you come to town, remember to come to my house to play with my sister. My sister misses you so much!"

After finishing what he wanted to say, he waved his hand, said goodbye to the people in front of him, and pushed his small cart away from the slightly shabby-looking town gate.
