if send you a book

The next day, Liang Xinhe received the novella "Standing at Thirty", and she spent two days reading the first short story, which is the title work.

In fact, after leaving the society, she seldom read books that required thoughtful thinking. She prefers to read novels with good writing and strong storytelling.

This short story by Wang Xiaobo is not difficult to read, it is quite literary, and some sentences are particularly beautiful.

Liang Xinhe thinks that this is written by a standard straight male writer. In her opinion, many male writers have a characteristic in their writing-overemphasizing "male, root", and love to use sexual hints to symbolize and express.

But this one's scale is okay, so it won't make women feel disgusted.

Putting down the book, what she thought about instead was the reason why Wei Xiao chose this book.

I always thought that she didn't think Wei Xiao was a male writer, and she didn't look like most female writers, but Liang Xinhe insisted that Wei Xiao was a "she".

Her brushwork is calm, and it feels more like an alienated, neutral creator looking at the world she created.

Her protagonists are either young boys and girls, or old people. The plot is full of the struggle of the weak in this world.

——The boys and girls who were bullied on campus designed a game after sympathizing with each other, so that the bully would suffer the consequences, and both of them went to die to find their paradise.

——The old man who lived alone and scavenged waste designed step by step to avenge his grandson, but he didn't get revenge after he died, and the bad guy was killed by another person in the end...

——In a shared apartment, an old man is in charge of cleaning, and an old man is in charge of food. The young people in the apartment gradually die of accidents one by one, and finally the answer is revealed. These young people all did evil things and died of " Man-made' accidents...

In retrospect, the themes of Wei Xiao’s books are quite dark, but they are not completely pessimistic. Her books cannot be regarded as cool, but they always make people want to read them. All are passable.

Another feature is that there is almost no love line, which makes people think that the author's attitude towards love is very pessimistic.

Is it a woman?

There are also many women who read Wang Xiaobo's books.She read several books when she was in college (but I can’t remember the contents clearly)

……

Wei Xiao is always very discerning in choosing books, and there must be something she likes about this book.

what is it?

Liang Xinhe went to read the first article again, she somehow felt that Wei Xiao must be reading the short story of the same name.

With this mentality, she felt that this article seemed to be more interesting.

Why did Wei Xiao choose to read this book?

There must be her intentions.

Before she knew it, she was engrossed in watching it until the agent called in - "Sister Xinhe, I brought someone over to see the house, and I'll be there in about half an hour."

Ning Xi received a call from He Ruyi and asked him to accompany her to see the house.

He Ruyi was wearing a sleeveless, knee-length skirt modified from a cheongsam, and a light woolen coat, which was exquisite and decent.

In contrast, Ning Xi was dressed very simply, a thin black square-neck sweater and light blue jeans.

"Your new hairstyle is nice, it's very pretty." As soon as He Ruyi met her, he looked at her with a gratified smile on his face, and reached out to stroke her head.

Ning Xi showed a speechless expression, and stepped back to avoid her hand.

The two got into the car, and He Ruyi asked her how she had been these few days, how she ate, how she was feeling, and whether she had exercised or not.

Ning Xi didn't find it annoying. In her heart, He Ruyi was her sister, and to some extent she could also be said to be her mother.

She will not bother her nagging, and He Ruyi will not force her to give her any response.

"So, let's go out for a walk more." He Ruyi turned the steering wheel, and reached out to stroke her hair.

Ning Xi avoided it anyway, kept quiet, and nodded slightly.

He Ruyi stared at the road conditions, the corners of her lips curled secretly, and then talked about the trivial things in life: "... he is about to go to college, and he said he wants to enter the Academy of Fine Arts. He bought a house."

Ning Xi knew his nephew's grades, if he performed steadily, he would have no problem getting into the Academy of Fine Arts.

"It can't be too close, I still want him to live in the school more, and it can't be too far away, just in case something happens, um, for example, if he has a girlfriend, he can have a place to go." He Ruyi said while driving.

It was still a cloudy day today, and the air was full of water vapor. Ning Xi glanced out the window and hummed softly, which was enough to encourage He Ruyi to continue talking.

"I just thought about buying a second-hand house, as long as the decoration is not too bad. Anyway, he is old enough, so let him figure it out." He Ruyi turned a corner and continued to chatter, "If my sister's As for the house, I have to think more about her, and the house at home is also for my younger sister, my father and I have agreed with the brothers and sisters..."

Ning Xi looked at her sideways: "Speak to them now?"

"It's not too young, let the brothers and sisters know what they are doing earlier, but my sister is still young, who knows what university she will go to..."

Ning Xi listened quietly, and the car unknowingly arrived at the destination - a fairly new garden community, where Lin Zhongjie, who had a decent smile, was already waiting for them.

"It's a bit far from the Academy of Fine Arts, but it's okay. It's close to the subway, and the surrounding facilities are very complete. Hospitals, supermarkets, shopping malls, and vegetable markets are not far away..."

Intermediary Lin led them along and said, "Also, sister, this set is a bamboo shoot. The price is very fair. The owner is an interior designer with first-class taste. She decorated it herself, and she really wants to sell it."

"Oh?" He Ruyi winked at Ning Xi, "Then the decoration shouldn't be too bad?"

"Don't worry, it's really beautiful. This room really has to be snatched up. There may be a lot of people coming to see it today..." Lin Zhongjie added, "I know her better, and I met her last night. We made an appointment, and she's at home now!"

He Ruyi was tickled by the intermediary: "Then hurry up! Hurry up, we can't make people wait too long!"

Ning Xi was a few steps behind, and she scanned the surrounding environment. The green shade and man-made pavilions under the cloudy sky looked like a pencil drawing, and a thin wind blew across her porches.

She stopped for two seconds before catching up with He Ruyi and Lin Zhongjie.

The house is on the thirteenth floor, and the anti-theft door is a simple black copper color.Lin Zhongjie rang the doorbell, and the other side of the black copper anti-theft door was milky white, reflecting a woman in a gray sweater and black jeans appeared at the door, plain white, slender, with long hair tied with a silk scarf.

Ning Xi moved her eyelashes slightly, and quickly recognized her.

Lin intermediary introduced He Ruyi and her to each other.

"This is the owner, surnamed Liang."

"This is Ms. He."

"Hello."

"Hey, hello, hello."

Ning Xi stood outside the door. After a few greetings, they entered the room, and she followed.

The house is very tidy, and a faint grapefruit fragrance permeates the nose, which makes the heart feel refreshed.

"Look at it as you like." The woman said softly, her voice was soft and pleasant to the ears.

Her gaze passed through the other two people and met Ning Xi, their visions were parallel, she seemed to be startled, but was soon attracted by the voice of Lin Junjie next to her, "Sister Xinhe, why don't you come and help me?" Sister Ruyi, tell me about the house, I'm afraid I might not speak well of your ingenious design."

She smiled slightly, with a small dimple on the corner of her lips: "If you want to be lazy, just say so."

The other two women laughed softly.

"I bought this house to live in. It has a fairly square layout and a good orientation. Facing north and south, all the rooms can get sunlight."

"Because the apartment size is not too big, the main color of the decoration is white. I hope the room is brighter."

"The small storage room at the door is pretty good. The whole wall of shoe cabinets inside is just right for my son, who loves to collect sneakers. Ms. Liang, do you also like to collect shoes?"

The hostess paused, lowered her eyelashes, and slightly twitched the corners of her lower lip, but did not answer the words.

The main theme of the wall is white, and one side of the wall in the living room is also full of white cabinets, full of books, no TV, the floor is wooden, and there is a row of fat and short sofas, which can be nestled in by the whole person ,

Next to it is a long and low table of logs, and there is a very ornamental bell plant - the slender branches wind a beautiful figure in the air, and the green and tender leaves are like petals of small flowers, light and agile.

"Wow, you really love to read!" He Ruyi glanced around, flashing a smile, "Oh, there are so many books I don't know! Oh my god, you...you have all her books?"

"Yes, are you too?" The female proprietor looked very surprised, "I have all her books, and I also received the first edition of the 'Odd' series..."

"Me..." He Ruyi pursed her lips and smiled, "I like her too, and I've read a book or two, but I've watched all the movies."

"Oh, the movie adaptation is quite good, but I prefer to read books. Wei Xiao's writing is very good, with a super sense of imagery, and her psychological description of the characters..." The female proprietress's speech speed unknowingly accelerated , but she realized it in an instant, and continued to talk about the house, "The living room is not very big. I personally don't like watching TV, so I didn't put it on..."

"Young people don't watch TV very much nowadays..." Lin Zhongjie said.

He Ruyi nodded: "That's right!" Her eyes fell on an open book on the sofa, the cover was quite familiar.

She turned slightly towards Ning Xi's direction, and quickly winked.

As Ning Xi approached, her eyes slowly shuttled from a row of books on the bookshelf through the lens to the grass-green "Standing at Thirty", and finally gathered on the female proprietress.
